Naruto: Konoha Silver Wolf

Chapter 24: It’s worth a try



Swish, swish, swish!

Facing his furious Sensei's wife, Kushina, Kakashi dared not retaliate and could only dodge her attacks.

However, Kushina refused to stop. The more Kakashi dodged, the angrier she got, unleashing a barrage of attacks. Using her Uzumaki clan's massive chakra reserves, she relentlessly bombarded Kakashi with jutsu.

Moreover, the Uzumaki clan's expertise in barrier techniques meant Kushina's combined ninjutsu and barriers overwhelmed Kakashi, leaving him no room to counterattack.

"Sensei's wife! Watch your image! Sensei is here!"

Kakashi pleaded, dodging and sweating profusely. He knew from memory that Minato was Kushina's only weakness.

Hearing this, Minato, who was in the room, couldn't help but smile slightly. Kakashi always used him as a shield!

"That Kakashi has my style, hahaha!"

Jiraiya, one of the Sannin and Minato's teachers, was also in the house. Hearing Minato, he burst into laughter.

A few veins appeared on Minato's forehead as he listened to his master.

"Hmph! You brat, I'll deal with you later!"

Hearing Kakashi, Kushina hesitated, her beautiful face still filled with anger, but finally stopped her attacks.

Whew!

Seeing Kushina finally stop, Kakashi let out a sigh of relief. He had just been discharged from the hospital, and his body wasn't fully recovered. If Kushina had continued, he would have been in serious trouble.

"What urgent matter made you rush here and even break the door? Remember to pay for the repairs!"

Kushina's voice rang out, demanding an explanation.

Kakashi's eyes focused, remembering his purpose.

"I came to see Sensei about a mission!"

Kakashi quickly said to Kushina.

"Oh? What mission is so urgent that you had to rush to Sensei?"

Minato appeared before Kakashi in a flash, curious.

"Sensei, has the Hokage decided to send someone to find Tsunade-sama?"

Kakashi asked directly.

"You want to find Tsunade?"

Jiraiya appeared beside Kakashi, looking curious.

"Yes, I want to take on that mission and have Tsunade-sama look at my left eye. I've heard she's the best medical ninja in the world and hope she can help me control it."

Kakashi explained, looking at Minato and Jiraiya.

"Right, I nearly forgot about that!"

Minato's eyes lit up, agreeing enthusiastically.

"Jiraiya-sensei, do you think Tsunade-sama can solve Kakashi's left eye problem?"

Minato turned to Jiraiya, hoping for an answer. He supported Kakashi in keeping Obito's Sharingan but wanted his disciples to become stronger. If Tsunade could solve Kakashi's issue, the Sharingan would be an asset, not a burden.

"Well…"

"Tsunade's medical skills are exceptional, but Kakashi's left eye is an Uchiha Sharingan. I'm not sure if she can help."

"But if Tsunade can't do it, no one can. It's worth a try!"

"The issue is, we don't know where Tsunade is. Finding her within a month will be challenging."

Jiraiya hesitated before responding, proud of Tsunade's skills but aware of the difficulty locating her.

"That's true."

"Having just signed a peace treaty with Iwa, we can't mobilize many ninjas. Kakashi will have to find Tsunade alone."

"Whether we find Tsunade depends on you, Kakashi."

Minato nodded, agreeing to let Kakashi undertake the mission.

"I'll find Tsunade-sama!"

Kakashi responded excitedly.

"Good. I'll inform the Third Hokage. You wait for my signal."

Jiraiya added.

"Thank you, Jiraiya-sama!"

Kakashi thanked him respectfully.

"It's nothing, haha! No need to admire me!"

Jiraiya laughed proudly, making Kakashi sweatdrop at his master's eccentricity. The legendary Sannin was even more eccentric in his youth.

"If you find Tsunade and she refuses to return, just ask her to look at your eye."

Jiraiya advised earnestly, knowing Tsunade might not come back willingly.

"And tell her that someone in Konoha always thinks of her."

Jiraiya added softly, blushing slightly.
