Chapter 75: Byakuya Uses Injury to Cure Illness, Tsunade's Heart Aches!
"Not interested, I'm not interested in anything right now!"
Hearing those familiar words, Tsunade immediately thought of Byakuya.
What was wrong with today?
Why did everyone want to talk about some deal with her at every turn?
"I can... help you resurrect Nawaki!"
Orochimaru smiled faintly.
He thought his words would immediately bring shock to Tsunade.
But to his surprise, Tsunade didn't react at all.
Instead, Shizune's expression on the side was full of astonishment.
Orochimaru:????
This wasn't according to plan!
Did Tsunade not care about her younger brother Nawaki at all anymore?
"Get out of here before I get angry!"
Tsunade slammed her fist down, smashing the table in front of her to pieces.
It was as if if Orochimaru didn't leave in the next second, this would be his fate as well.
"Lady Tsunade!!!"
Shizune was already in despair seeing this scene.
The money they had was only enough for this round of drinks!
With Lady Tsunade acting like this today, she was afraid they wouldn't be able to leave.
"Lord Orochimaru!"
Kimimaro glanced at Orochimaru.
As long as Orochimaru gave the order, he would act without hesitation.
But Orochimaru clearly didn't intend to use force yet.
After all, that was a choice only to be made as a last resort.
"Tsunade, consider it carefully. I know Nawaki's death has always been a knot in your heart."
"I am equally saddened."
"Because Nawaki was also my disciple!"
Orochimaru tried to play the emotional card with Tsunade.
But this tactic was completely useless.
"You mean using Edo Tensei to keep Nawaki from resting in peace!"
Tsunade saw through Orochimaru's so-called resurrection at a glance.
"How did Tsunade know!"
Orochimaru was a bit surprised; when did Tsunade become so familiar with such things?
"Hmph, Orochimaru, don't think I don't know what your goal is!"
Tsunade directly refused, giving Orochimaru no face at all.
She even went as far as to harshly belittle Orochimaru.
"If that's the case, then let's do it!"
Orochimaru just sighed, then ordered Kimimaro to take action.
"Eh, what's going on? Why are they starting to fight!"
Karin, watching the show from the side, was already a bit dazed.
Orochimaru didn't say anything about fighting when he asked her to come.
Back then, he only said he needed help finding someone, not that a fight would be required!
But Kimimaro naturally wouldn't listen to Karin.
Kimimaro directly swung his hand and slashed toward Tsunade.
This happened too quickly.
Even Shizune didn't have time to stop it.
"Lady Tsunade!!"
Only Shizune knew that because Tsunade suffered from hemophobia,
she didn't dare to strike anyone at all.
Sure enough, Tsunade stared blankly at the scene.
Boom!
After a powerful impact,
to everyone's surprise, Tsunade wasn't injured at all.
A figure appeared in front of Tsunade just like that.
Byakuya reached out his right hand and blocked Kimimaro's attack.
"Byakuya!"
Tsunade felt a pang in her heart the moment she saw Byakuya appear.
If Byakuya hadn't appeared just now, the matter of her hemophobia would have... "Orochimaru, long time no see!"
Byakuya just stared at Orochimaru indifferently.
But to Orochimaru, this was practically a devil's smile.
"When did he get close? How did I not notice!!"
Karin, acting as both healer and scout, hadn't noticed a thing.
Byakuya had already arrived in front of them.
"How is this possible!"
Karin had absolute confidence in her sensory abilities.
But Byakuya gave her a metaphorical slap in the face in the next second.
"Wait!!"
Karin seemed to realize something after seeing Byakuya!
Then, frightened, she hurriedly shielded Orochimaru by stepping in front of him.
"Hmm!"
Kimimaro was also stunned; someone actually dared to catch his attack with their bare hand.
"Shikotsumyaku!"
Dozens of sharp bone spurs began to grow from Kimimaro's arm.
These spurs tried to pierce through Byakuya's palm.
But they were completely useless.
The bone spurs not only failed to injure Byakuya but also snapped directly.
"How is this possible!"
Kimimaro hadn't participated in the Konoha Crush.
This led to him being completely unaware of the gap between himself and Byakuya.
"Byakuya, are you okay!"
Tsunade couldn't help but worry when she saw this.
After all, Byakuya was one of the few relatives she had left who shared the Senju Clan bloodline.
Tsunade grabbed Byakuya's hand, wanting to check for injuries.
But because of the Chakra Body Refining Technique,
Kimimaro hadn't even scratched his skin.
However, seeing Tsunade's worried expression,
an idea formed in Byakuya's mind.
To overcome the hemophobia in Tsunade's heart, she had to face it actively.
Seeing how much she worried about him, Byakuya could only apologize to her in his heart.
Thus, for Kimimaro's next attack,
Byakuya still used his bare hand to catch it.
Only this time, Byakuya didn't use the Chakra Body Refining Technique to protect himself.
But even so, Kimimaro's bone spur failed to penetrate Byakuya's palm.
"This!"
Byakuya's brow furrowed slightly.
His previous impression of Kimimaro was that the guy was quite strong.
But now that he had reached his current level, he realized Kimimaro wasn't strong enough!
It seemed he couldn't just go easy on him; he had to throw the fight completely!
Byakuya had the fortune of seeing a few 'Pacific Ocean-sized' acting performances before.
He was naturally not unfamiliar with throwing a fight.
Finally, with Byakuya's blatant acting, Kimimaro's bone spur finally pierced Byakuya's palm.
Under Byakuya's control, blood began to flow out.
"That's... blood!"
Tsunade, on the other side, almost couldn't stand steady upon seeing this.
But then, the anger within her body replaced the fear.
After all, Byakuya now represented the last heritage of the Senju Clan!
Most of the Senju Clan had completely integrated into the civilians.
Only Byakuya had awakened the once-invincible Wood Release!
Therefore, Byakuya was the final legacy of the Senju Clan!
"Chakra Enhanced Strength!"
At this moment, Tsunade even forgot about the existence of her hemophobia.
Then, she threw a forceful punch at Kimimaro.
Boom!
The powerful impact sent Kimimaro flying backward.
He only stopped after smashing through three walls in a row.
"Are you okay!"
After doing all that, Tsunade looked at Byakuya with an expression of extreme worry.
At this moment, Byakuya even felt a bit guilty in his heart.
Because the wound had almost healed already.
Even if he didn't use the Chakra Body Refining Technique, the powerful restorative power of Wood Release would automatically heal Byakuya.
"Tsunade, Lady Tsunade!"
Shizune watched in amazement as Tsunade grabbed Byakuya's bleeding palm.
But there was no reaction at all.
Then Shizune showed an excited expression.
"Lady Tsunade, have you already overcome your hemophobia!"
Because Tsunade had been blinded by anger just now,
She hadn't noticed that she no longer had that terrifying reaction after seeing blood.
"I... I've overcome it?"
Tsunade herself found it hard to believe.
But the facts were right before her eyes.
Coming to her senses, Tsunade tried to use Mystical Palm Technique to treat the "injured" Byakuya.
A moment later, not a single trace was left on Byakuya's hand.
"Since when was the effect of my Mystical Palm Technique so strong?"
Tsunade said with some doubt.
Although she hadn't used the Mystical Palm Technique for a long time, Tsunade knew,
The effect couldn't possibly be this fast.
Thinking back to the scene just now, Tsunade's gaze as she looked at Byakuya began to calm down.
Tsunade just looked at Byakuya silently.
As their eyes met,
Byakuya even felt a sense of regret.
One must know that Byakuya rarely felt regret.
Everything he did was part of a complete plan.
The scene just now was intended to help Tsunade break free from her hemophobia.
"Sorry, Sister Tsunade, it won't happen again!"
For the first time, Byakuya called her Sister Tsunade.
Regardless, the same bloodline flowed within him and Tsunade.
The next second, Tsunade pulled Byakuya into her embrace.
"You're not allowed to do this again!"
Tsunade's voice had never been so gentle.
It was as if she were a different person from the bold and hearty Tsunade before.
Tsunade didn't want Byakuya to choose this way to help her solve her hemophobia!
One must know, the reason she suffered from hemophobia was because she was afraid of seeing her loved ones get hurt in front of her again.
So she was unwilling to see Byakuya choose to get hurt for the sake of her hemophobia.
"Understood!"
Byakuya sighed and replied.
He had indeed been a bit reckless this time.
He didn't expect that he actually held such a position in Tsunade's heart.
This also showed how much Tsunade valued family.
Even though Byakuya and Tsunade had never met before,
When she heard that the blood of the Senju Clan flowed in Byakuya's body just like hers,
Tsunade had already regarded Byakuya as her only family member.
Byakuya gently wiped the corners of Tsunade's eyes so that the others wouldn't notice the shimmering moisture there.
Then he gently smoothed her hair.
Only then did Tsunade look like she hadn't just cried.
"It's over, it's over. Even Kimimaro was sent flying with one punch."
"What should we do now?"
Karin hid behind Orochimaru, trembling.
She finally felt just how terrifying the Byakuya in front of her was.
When his aura was fully released, Karin even thought she was facing the Shinigami.
"Cough, Jiraiya, are you sure you won't plead for mercy on my behalf?"
Orochimaru rarely glanced at Jiraiya behind him.
He had noticed Jiraiya's arrival just now.
Orochimaru didn't even dare to imagine what his fate would be if Jiraiya didn't plead for him.
Looking back at the two times he died at Byakuya's hands,
The first time he died to the Eight Gates, and the second time was even more exaggerated—he died directly to the Eight Gates' strongest strike.
Each death was more miserable than the last.
Orochimaru couldn't even imagine what his fate would be this time.
No... no one is allowed to hurt Lord Orochimaru!
Kimimaro forced himself to stand in front of Orochimaru.
But Orochimaru just patted him gently.
"Stop, Kimimaro. You are no match for him!"
Orochimaru knew very well that Byakuya had just been holding back.
If they really fought, Kimimaro wouldn't just be crashing through three walls.
"Cough, cough!"
Moreover, because Orochimaru had a strong rejection reaction with this body,
He couldn't exert any strength at all.
"Byakuya!"
Jiraiya thought for a moment and still stepped forward.
Although he didn't know if it would work, Jiraiya still wanted to plead for Orochimaru.
"I have my own arrangements for Orochimaru's disposal!"
Byakuya interrupted Jiraiya and spoke decisively.
"Truly ridiculous. How could a genius like you appear in Konoha!"
Orochimaru shook his head.
He never would have dreamed that a genius like Byakuya would appear in Konoha.
In the face of Byakuya's absolute strength,
All his plans seemed like a joke.
He might even be a joke in Byakuya's eyes.
"If I could do it over, I would never become your enemy!"
This was the most useful lesson Orochimaru had learned after dying twice.
This was also why he only dared to seek out Tsunade to treat him this time.
"Do it!"
Orochimaru no longer had any expectations of surviving.
But he didn't see Byakuya make a move for a long time.
"I said, for you, I have my own way of punishment!"
Byakuya wouldn't just kill such an excellent scientist like Orochimaru.
After all, scientists were already rare in the Ninja World.
Instead of killing Orochimaru directly, Byakuya wanted to use him to his fullest potential.
Byakuya had the strength to make Orochimaru submit to him.
The old man Third Hokage couldn't suppress Orochimaru, but that didn't mean he couldn't.
