Naruto: What Kind of Starter Pack is 13 Years Late? Chapter 89: Annual Subscription To The Hospital?

"Kakashi-sensei."

"Hmm?"

"From now on, you should get a card at the hospital, like an annual pass."

"…"

"Anyway, every ti you go on a mission, you end up there…"

In the stone forest on the border of the Land of Earth, Takemi supported the sowhat exhausted Kakashi and muttered softly.

This sentence made Kakashi roll his eyes. If he hadn't been so weak, he would have wanted to hit Takemi on the head.

But thinking about it carefully, it did seem that every ti they returned from a mission, he ended up reporting to the hospital, didn't he?

No, that ti in Kirigakure seed different…

"But isn't this probability too high?"

Kakashi rubbed his forehead, he could only speak in a low voice.

"This ti, I truly used this eye in actual combat. The effect was good, but the side effects are strong. However, I also understand more deeply how to use this eye now."

Speaking of which, Kakashi looked up. The deeper his understanding of this eye, the better he would be able to deal with Obito.

His eye was an eye of bonds, and also an eye of conviction. He would rely on this conviction to clear Obito's na.

"Jiraiya-sama, how are you?"

Perhaps not wanting to discuss his own physical condition, Kakashi turned to the silent Jiraiya beside him.

"Why do you seem a bit… all the way here?"

"Sigh, I encountered so incredible things." Jiraiya originally didn't want to speak, but finally sighed.

"The old man once told that when the Fourth Mizukage was being controlled, besides Obito, he also saw two other people, one with orange hair and one with blue hair."

Takemi spoke at the right mont, "Just now, an orange-haired person seed to appear, he blocked Ōnoki's attack."

This was exactly what he wanted!

He had been thinking for a long ti about how to complete that exclusive mission. He couldn't possibly follow Jiraiya into the Agakure, could he?

Moreover, he rembered that when Deidara joined, Nagato, Konan, and others all appeared.

Since that was the case, why not give it a try?

At worst, he could just reveal so key information to Jiraiya later. Sasori had already brought out the Third Kazekage's puppet anyway.

With a spark that ignited the Third Great Ninja War, plus so of his own 'little hints,' it should be fine.

Fortunately, Nagato and the others really ca, and his preparations were also very thorough. Not only could he leave safely, but he also let Jiraiya see what he wanted him to see.

"This information is enough, but it seems I've gained another title?"

The thought of inexplicably getting two 'titles' after going on one mission made him chuckle.

But no matter what, everything went smoothly!

"Yes, that's the guy."

While Takemi was lost in thought, Jiraiya sighed, forcing a bitter smile.

"When I saw him, I truly couldn't believe it, because I rembered he should have been dead. But when I saw the other person, I realized the situation might be worse than imagined."

"Who… are they?"

Though tired, Kakashi couldn't help but look up and ask, but Jiraiya pondered for a mont before shaking his head.

"There are still many questions here. Let's discuss them after we return…"

As soon as Jiraiya finished speaking, he imdiately saw Takemi and Kakashi giving him distrustful looks, which made Jiraiya feel a bit awkward.

"Please, I won't ss around. After all, if everything is true, then this matter will be difficult to handle."

After all, those were the Rinnegan!

But why were those eyes on Yahiko?

"Yosh!"

Jiraiya was at a loss, but just then, a voice suddenly ca from the sky, imdiately putting them on alert.

The next mont, a clay bird appeared, landing boldly and defenselessly in front of them.

A yellow-haired boy jumped down laughing, then pointed at Takemi and shouted loudly, "I finally found you, especially you, the one with the sa art as ! Hmm!"

"???"

Where did this crazy person co from?

— — —

"So, you brought Ōnoki's disciple back?"

In Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the disheveled Kakashi, the carefree Jiraiya, and the helpless Takemi, and he couldn't help but rub his temples.

This mission was indeed urgent, and he had ntally prepared himself. Especially since this mission was in the Land of Earth, which was Ōnoki's territory.

He only hoped that no trouble would arise and that he would get so useful information.

For the past month, he had been waiting, and occasionally sought out Danzo to understand the situation.

But he got nothing, and he never expected that a few days ago he would receive a 'bombshell'!

"A violent explosion occurred on the Iwagakure border, suspected to be caused by the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki. The area was subsequently sealed off."

Upon seeing this news, Sarutobi Hiruzen 's heart was truly startled.

He wondered if Takemi and his team were surrounded, or if their confrontation with the mysterious organization was discovered by Ōnoki?

After waiting bitterly for several days, these few people finally returned, but they brought an extra person with them.

"This isn't our fault, that kid insisted on coming with us, we couldn't push him away."

Jiraiya also felt frustrated at this mont, he scratched his head and spoke helplessly.

"I don't know what's wrong with that kid. He kept saying that Takemi and he shared the sa art, and he followed us no matter what. But his jutsu is quite special, it can carry us through the air, so..."

As he spoke, Jiraiya and Takemi almost simultaneously looked at Kakashi, which imdiately made Kakashi's eyes widen.

"No, I can..."

"Alright, let's not talk about that."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also glanced at Kakashi, nodded understandingly, and interrupted him.

With Kakashi in this state, he would most likely be resting in the hospital again. This situation didn't seem sustainable.

He even started to consider whether to bring Tsunade back to deal with Kakashi's condition.

"However, this mission can be considered complete, and we've also obtained a lot of important intelligence." Shaking his head, he spoke seriously.

"That organization not only has Obito, Itachi, and Kisa, but also a mysterious bounty hunter and a cultist like Hidan."

"Now we even know that soone among them killed the Third Kazekage, and soone among them can counter Ōnoki's Dust Release. It's truly terrifying..."

"Indeed, extraordinary." Jiraiya nodded, his expression grave.

"With so many dangerous individuals forming a team, plus Obito once said he wanted to change this world, they probably..."

"Hmm, too dangerous."

Sarutobi Hiruzen also frowned deeply. This matter was truly difficult to handle and full of challenges.

Don't underestimate such an organization. It's incredibly difficult to catch them once they've hidden themselves.

Especially with their individual strengths being so formidable, spreading out to launch attacks would be troubleso for any village.

Especially with Mangekyo Sharingan users like Obito and Itachi, it's not impossible for them to control people with a single genjutsu. The tragedy of Kirigakure might repeat itself!

"Inform Sunagakure that we have found the suspected killer of the Third Kazekage." Holding his pipe, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly spoke.

"Also, Ōnoki sent a ssage, seemingly wanting to test us. I think we can make contact, what do you all think?"

Jiraiya muttered softly, "Didn't you already make up your mind, pld man?"

"Ōnoki's disciple is here with us, what else can we do but make contact? Are we supposed to kill his disciple?"

"It doesn't seem impossible?" Takemi suddenly spoke at this mont.

"That kid is crazy and has done many terrifying missions. Just kill him and pretend nothing happened."

"No!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Jiraiya, Kakashi, and Sarutobi Hiruzen almost simultaneously spoke, their eyes wide as they stared at Takemi.

"That kid absolutely cannot be killed. Takemi, don't ss around. Maybe this kid is a bridge connecting us and Ōnoki, understand?"
