Chapter 24- The Woman I've been Looking for! Tsunade!
I do not own Naruto
........................
After a moment of yelling, all about his revenge, Sasuke held down his hand and formed the Chidori. The hall filled with the sound of a thousand birds chirping, a blueish light emitting from Sasuke's hand. I kept Naruto behind me, knowing he didn't like what was going on.
Not able to keep up the Tensai I dropped the Sharingan, now would not be the best time to have my illness effect me.
Sasuke charged at his older brother, dragging his electric hand on the wall as he shouted a war cry of some sort. Seeing this I got prepared to attack the fish. As soon as he turned to look at the two brothers who were fighting I lunged at him.
I was only able to cut his cheek before he threw me off him. My back hit the wall, making me stumble to my knees.
"Stupid brat!" He shouted, I smirked slightly.
"Hand over the nine tails host!" He demanded.
"I promise you, you won't get him while I am still breathing!" Just as I was about to do a jutsu though, my chakra was cut off. And for whatever reason, he wasn't able to hurt me, at least severely. Whoever his boss was, he or she had a soft spot for me.
"What the-" I looked confused only making the fish man snicker.
"My sword cuts through chakra."
That was when I heard Sasuke shout in pain. I turned to see Itachi holding his wrist. His wrist was bent at an odd angle, like Itachi had broken it. "Sasuke? You-" I trailed off biting my lip, if I helped him then I couldn't protect Naruto. Yet, it wasn't right for me not to go and help him.
I could feel Naruto tense as he was about to run after Sasuke, then the fish man raised his sword to strike. I put up my kunai ready to try to deflect the large sword. I held back my fear, knowing it wasn't likely I would BA able to block. My strength didn't compare to this man.
As he slashed down a poof of smoke appeared, I narrowed my eyes, my body tensing at whoever was joining the fight. Seeing the man appear out of the smoke, I couldn't help but grin with relief.
One of Jirayia's toad's was holding the sword that had been slashed down at me. I turned to see Jirayia, and a passed out lady on his shoulder.
"About time Pervy sage." I said grinning.
He smirked at me, then went into a speech of how he has women falling for him all the time. How a trick as cheap as that won't trick him. I raised an eyebrow, last I checked it was working pretty well.
"You casted a genjutsu on this lady just so you could separate Naruto and I, am I right?" He finished seriously.
"Well you're half right." The fish man smirked, looking towards me. "We also wanted to separate you from the crystal and Tensai user. At least to confirm some suspicions." He finished, slinging his sword over his shoulder.
Bringing my attention back to the Uchiha's, I noticed Itachi was putting Sasuke into a genjutsu.
My eyes widened as I heard Sasuke's haunted scream fill the hall. I turned away slightly, hoping to end the haunting scream that belonged to my comrade.
That was when Jirayia's toad poofed away, only for Jirayia to perform another jutsu. The walls and floor were soon covered to look like some kind of internal organ.
"Naruto, Yuki stay still and don't worry. This is my jutsu, you won't be eaten by the toads stomach." Jirayia said smiling at us before he turned to the other two in the red and black cloaks. "Although I can't say the same for you two, no one has ever escaped the toads stomach."
'So we were inside a toads stomach, that is so cool!' I thought as I looked at the red slimy walls. Sasuke had sunk into the wall a little bit, releasing him from Itachi's grip.
Both of the cloaked guys looked at us. Itachi stared into my eyes, then Itachi said, "Let's go Kisame, we'll get them another time." They both ran off hoping to escape the stomach.
Jirayia ran after the two men, Naruto and I behind him. We stopped only to see black flames and a huge hole in the wall leading to their escape. Jirayia released the stomach jutsu as Naruto and I walked over the the black flames.
"Wow, how did he do that?" I asked.
"It has something to do with the Sharingan, although I don't think you can do it." Jirayia said as he knelt down to us.
Confused I asked, "Why?"
"You don't have the Sharingan."
I nodded, thrilled to prove him wrong. Something about proving people wrong just made my day. "Uh-huh, my Tensai already allows me to use the Sharingan. After I saw Kakashi sensei use it I naturally coped it."
Jirayia looked shocked before he shook his head, a slight smirk on his face as he pulled out a scroll. He wrote something on it before he lightly pushed Naruto and I away then he sealed the black flames.
As we all stood up and walked back to Sasuke, who was passed out, Jirayia got kicked in the face.
"Dynamic Kick!" A familiar voice shouted, a sparkling grin on his face.
Acting on my natural instinct I grabbed a kunai and jumped in front of Jirayia. Although I stopped my attack as I noticed it was only Gai. I put my kunai away letting them talk before I looked at Sasuke.
"I'm sorry! You see I was using my headband to see who was up here. All I saw was two suspicious figures and looking at two other figures. So I went for the bigger one." He smiled.
I looked at them then shook my head and went to take my three pills. After I swallowed I heard something about the lady we were going after.
"You're right, we are going after the master of elixir and medical ninjutsu. Non-other than Lady Tsunade, princess of slugs." Jirayia said smiling as Gai.
My eyes widened, I know that name! "So you mean this lady can heal Kakashi sensei and Sasuke?" Naruto asked hopeful.
Jirayia nodded, I could feel hope rising in me. At least until I remembered that nobody has seen her since she left the village.
I looked down, "What makes you think we'll find her? From what I heard nobody's heard from her since she left the village." I muttered bitterly.
All three looked at me, "How do you know Yuki-chan?" Naruto asked.
My jaw tensed as I adverts my eyes, "Because they have been looking for her for a while now, believe me I know."
Jirayia looked at me closely before asking, "Why?" He knew why, but he knew Naruto wasn't going to ask. The sneaky old man was practically forcing me to tell Naruto.
Looking up at him I stated, "Because, If anyone can find a cure to my illness it would be her. I'm gonna go on a walk." Without giving a second thought I jumped out of the hole in the wall.
As much as I wanted to be happy I just couldn't. After all those years of my parent's and other ninja searching for her, Jirayia thinks he can just find her. I could almost laugh at the possibility of finding her. However, if I have learned anything from Naruto, it is not to lose hope.
I gripped my mother's necklace. Maybe, just maybe, we can find her.
..........................
We said our good-bye's to Gai as he walked away. Somehow he had another outfit of green spandex that he wears, which he gave to Naruto and I.
When we were far enough I muttered, "Who in their right mind keeps a pair, not one but two pairs of green spandex with them. To top it off in a child's size." I wrinkled my nose.
Jirayia looked down at me as we walked, "You're not going to wear that are you?"
"No way!" I shouted.
"Wh-why not Yuki-chan? It's so much cooler than what we normally wear! It breaths way better too!" Naruto yelled stretching the spandex in his hands grinning.
Jiraiya and my eyes twitched. "Naruto-kun if you wear that, I'm sure Sakura will never talk to you again. Also that it's not cool in anyway, I would rather die than wear those. I'm perfectly fine with my outfit thank you very much." I stated plainly as I tugged at the bottom of my long pink selves of my ninja kimono.
Jiraiya laughed as my comment while Naruto pouted. He got over it as soon as he turned to Jirayia. "Hey Pervy sage when are you gonna train us?" I turned to look at Jirayia.
Jiraiya ignored Naruto's question as he said, "Look here's a village, how about you two go enjoy some games." Naruto and I turned to the small town.
It looked like a festival was going on. It's been a while since I went to one. My eyes lit up, this festival seemed exciting. Naruto took out his frog wallet while I took out my wolf one.
"Hey wait you two." We both stopped and turned to Jiraiya.
"You can't take all your money out like that." He held out his hand, smiling knowingly. "Hand it over and I'll hold it for you." I narrowed my eyes at him.
Although he thought I gave him my wallet I only gave him a clone wallet. I smiled slightly before running away, my real wolf wallet safe inside my pocket. I was always good at spending my money, I could limit myself. Then again, when it came to Naruto I had a bad habit to spending a little more than I should.
I looked around at some games, soon one caught my eye. I walked up to it then looked at the man that was operating it. "Here, I'll play." I handed him some money before stepping into the cage. I picked up the knifes that looked similar to kunai's then threw them at the target. I tossed the warn out knives in the air, feel the weight of it.
A grin formed on my face, though they were worn with enough strength they would stick to the target. One by one I threw the knife. A small clunk would sound as the knife embedded itself in the target, right on the dot. After throwing my last one, I saw it land right on the dot.
After all five hit in a row on the dot a crowd started to form. The worker got cocky and said, "How about I give you two big stuffed animals if you hit ten targets on the dot?" Did he not see me just hit all of these targets? Did he not notice my headband? Maybe he was stupid.
I smirked. "How about we make it two big stuffed animals and some money?" I rubbed two fingers together.
He laughed, "You're on, but the targets are going to be moving. You make all ten you get 500 yen, and two big stuffed animals." I shook his hand smirking, this was going to be easy.
Barley glancing at the moving targets I through the knifes. All ten hit the target on the dot. Those targets were moving slow, at least to me they were. Maybe I should feel guilty for basically conning this man into the deal, but I really did nothing all that bad. He made the deal first.
The man's mouth dropped in shock as the crowd was in awe. Perhaps ninja don't come here often. I on the other hand only smirked, looks like I just got some easy money.
I looked at the stuffed animals, there was a wolf but no toad. With pursed lips I looked around until I saw a fox, a smile formed as I then grabbed the wolf and the fox. I planned on giving one of these to Naruto, after I grabbed the stuffed animals I collected the money.
"Thanks sir!" I waved, sorta. It was hard to wave with two large stuffed animals in your hands.
As I was walking I saw Naruto, it looked like he was getting some food. I ran to him as I shouted his name. It appeared the I was correct, he was getting food a bag full of it too. His cheeks were full of the food, which he quickly swallowed to grin at me.
"Hey Yuki-chan! Woah, where did you get those?" He pointed to the two stuffed animals.
I smiled, "I won them, you got enough food for two?" I asked. He looked down at his food greedily before he sighed and nodded.
"Okay, let's go eat?" I dragged him off, all while explaining how I got the two stuffed animals and some extra cash.
"Man, I knew I should have kept playing that game!" He took a bite of some fish on a stick.
"Well since I have two stuffed animals, I figured you could have one." I smiled at him.
His eyes lit up like a kid in a candy store, or in his case a ramen store. "Really? You sure?" I nodded.
Then I handed him the wolf. "Since I can summon wolfs that can remind you of me. I'll keep the fox, it can remind me of you." His smile didn't falter but he did ask a question.
"Why did you pick a fox and not a toad?"
"Because I got a toad earlier, and they remind me of Pervy sage. So I plan on giving him this one!" I picked out the small toad I had won at my first game I played.
Naruto laughed at the small toad in my hand. I stood up, "All right, lets go find Pervy sage something to eat, then go find him."
