Chapter 59: Shinryu Yūhi

"Shinryu Yūhi, right?" Tsunade asked.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade." The man knew Tsunade, but Tsunade didn't recognize him.

"The previous occupants of this ward will be discharged soon."

"Please have a seat first." Tsunade led the client into the ward with a smile. This single - patient ward with postnatal care is quite expensive.

"Hello, I'm Kawaki Hatake." Kawaki greeted with a faint smile. If he remembered correctly, this was Kurenai Yuhi's father.

"Hello, I'm Shinryu Yūhi." Shinryu Yūhi shook hands with Kawaki in a composed manner.

"Your wife is a perfect match for you. Your child must be very cute." Kawaki started to butter him up to build a good relationship. This would also make it easier for Kakashi in the future.

He really worries about the next generation.

"Haha, thanks for your kind words." Shinryu Yūhi also showed a happy smile when talking about the child.

"This is our family's hospital. Just ask if you need any help." Kawaki didn't care if it was abrupt or not. He couldn't stay until the baby was born.

"Okay, thank you in advance." Shinryu Yūhi didn't seem to be a finicky person. He and Kawaki became acquainted.

Tsunade was also confused. How could Kawaki make friends with anyone?

Is it because he's so loaded that he can make friends with anyone?

"We won't disturb you. We'll leave first." Kawaki, with the two young ones, took the luggage from Sakumo's hand and they left the ward.

Shinryu Yūhi officially moved into the ward with his wife.

A few days later, a daughter with red pupils was born and named Kurenai Yuhi.

Kawaki often brought Kakashi to the hospital to see Tsunade and would chat with Shinryu Yūhi when he had nothing to do.

The relationship between the two families got much closer because of Kawaki's deliberate efforts.

The children in the Naruto world not only have good physiques but also grow fast.

The two babies who were born not long ago got to know each other.

They often gestured and babbled with each other.

It was a foregone conclusion that they would be childhood sweethearts. If Kakashi couldn't win her over, Kawaki would have to teach him a lesson.

～～～～～ Dividing Line ～～～～～

Konoha was still peaceful, but Hanzō's current situation was really tough.

After fighting with Chiyo for so long, he didn't even gain an advantage. Now, even his own poison had been cracked.

Hanzō decided to withdraw his troops. Only the blood on the land was left as the Rain ninjas retreated from the Land of Wind.

The war in the Land of Wind came to an end, and Sunagakure needed some time to recuperate.

At the Sand ninjas' camp.

"The old man with the breathing tube finally left." Chiyo had lost a lot of weight after a long - time battle and research.

"Mother, should we return to the village?"

Chiyo nodded as a response to her son.

"Ebizo, inform everyone to return to the village." After saying that, Chiyo climbed onto the bed and fell asleep. She was really exhausted from this battle.

In her dream, there was always the figure of Hanzō holding a chain sickle.

And how could Hanzō not hate her?

"This puppet old woman. I really want to tear her to pieces."

On the way back to the Land of Rain with his troops, Hanzō couldn't help but curse.

As he waved his kusarigama, trees were cut down.

"Lord Hanzō, Chiyo is truly skilled at using poison to counteract poison."

"We've done our best."

The man with a large birthmark above his right cheek was Sanshōuo Shinda, Hanzō's "right - hand."

"Shinda, take the men back. I'm going to the Land of Iron."

Still fuming, Hanzō planned to go to the Land of Iron alone.

"Do you want to bring some more men?"

"No need. The Land of Iron only has a bunch of sword - wielding samurai. Can they hurt me?"

Hanzō spoke arrogantly, but one had to admit he had the capital.

"Okay, then be careful, Lord Hanzō."

After Shinda finished speaking, Hanzō nodded and left alone.

After crossing the Land of Grass and the Land of Taki and taking a rest, Hanzō entered the Land of Iron.

He killed all the samurai he encountered along the way with his kusarigama.

Before long, news of an outsider's invasion of the Land of Iron reached the ears of the general, Mifune.

He led a large group of samurai to search for Hanzō.

Finally, they found Hanzō, still bare - chested, in front of a large waterfall.

Led by Mifune, the samurai behind him drew their swords and prepared to fight.

"My Land of Iron has always been neutral. Why is your Land of Rain constantly pressuring us?"

Seeing the mark of the Rain ninjas on Hanzō's gas mask, Mifune could easily tell his origin.

"I'm Hanzō of the Salamander. Do I need your permission to attack the Land of Iron?"

Hanzō was arrogant and didn't put the samurai in front of him in his eyes at all.

Mifune's face changed. Even though the Land of Iron was neutral, he had heard of the title of the Demigod of the Ninja World.

The atmosphere was more solemn than ever. His hand gripping the sword was already trembling slightly.

The samurai behind him were in an even worse state.

"Ah..."

As some panicked and fled, all the samurai Mifune brought ran off in a flash.

"Aren't you going to run?"

Hanzō looked at the goatee - bearded samurai in front of him with a hint of playfulness.

"I can't leave. If I do, they won't survive."

Forcing himself to hold back his fear, Mifune held his sword with both hands and faced Hanzō directly.

"Fine, then I'll kill you first."

After Hanzō said that, he waved his sickle and attacked.

Mifune's swordsmanship was swift. An ordinary ninja might not even have time to form hand seals.

But Hanzō's sword was even faster.

After they fought for a while, Mifune was at a disadvantage.

Swordsmanship: Kusarigama Double Strike

Mifune's sword was bound by the chain, and his right cheek was severely struck by Hanzō's sickle.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, flew backward, and fell hard on the ground.

Of course, Hanzō wouldn't miss this opportunity.

He raised his sickle high, intending to nail Mifune to the ground.

In a critical situation, Mifune did a somersault to avoid the fatal blow.

He got up, holding his sword with one hand, and concentrated his chakra on the blade.

Swordsmanship: Rending the Sky Slash

An arc - shaped blade aura spurted out from the sword and shot directly at Hanzō.

Water Body Flicker Technique

Hanzō formed a hand seal with one hand, turned into a pool of water, and dodged Mifune's attack.

Swordsmanship: Iai Beheading

Hanzō held his sickle and pierced through Mifune at extremely high speed, even cutting his sword in two.

As they crossed paths, Mifune supported himself on the ground with one hand and knelt on both knees.

Blood was flowing steadily from his wounds, and he spat out more blood from his mouth.

"You've been poisoned. Your days are numbered," Hanzō said indifferently as he put away his chain, telling Mifune the truth.

Mifune gradually couldn't stand the poison in his body and fell forward onto the ground.

"A man's end is not death but the moment when he loses his faith."

"Even if you die right here, you're not a dull blade."

"I'll proclaim to the world that you're a hero."

Hanzō admired Mifune's faith. Not everyone had the courage to face him alone.

"Before I die, could you grant me a request, sir?"

Mifune's weak voice reached Hanzō's ears.

"Let's hear what it is."

Hanzō had never met such an interesting person before.

"I'll exchange my death for your promise not to kill my companions."

"Hahaha, it's been a long time since I've seen a Samurai like you."

Hanzō burst out laughing and threw a bottle of antidote over, then turned and left.
