Naruto: With maxed-out affection, I am invincible in the ninja world.

"Huh? Didn't we just arrive at the camp? Sakumo-sensei is so inhumane!" Asuma said indignantly.

He had just made the bed and folded the blankets for his older brother Haneda when the mission came up and he had to leave. All his work was for nothing!

Even Haneda didn't have time to go back to his room to take a look...

"This mission is for our own good, Asma."

"Don't complain about Uncle Sakumo. He was doing it to protect us, and this mission was actually very important."

Haneda explained.

"What task did Professor Sakumo assign, Haneda?" Kurenai came out from another curtain.

Haneda said, "Simply put, we need to go to the Land of Hot Springs and ask Lady Tsunade to come out of seclusion."

"Lady Tsunade?!"

Asuma and Kurenai were stunned when they heard the name.

Who is Lady Tsunade?

Those were the legendary Sannin, incredibly powerful and with unparalleled medical skills!

In the realm of medical ninjutsu, Lady Tsunade is truly a medical saint!

Haneda said, "Konoha has the overall advantage in the battle against Sunagakure, but Sunagakure's poison has caused a lot of trouble for the village."

"Uncle Sakumo sent us to invite Lady Tsunade in order to prevent more of his companions from dying from poisoning."

Haneda didn't mention another reason why Sakumo sent them to the Land of Hot Springs.

Too lazy for the hotheaded Asuma to confront Uncle Sakumo and cause an internal crisis.

Asuma, who had heard some news about Tsunade from the Third Hokage, couldn't help but worry:

"Brother Haneda! Can we do this?"

"Lady Tsunade's temper... might not be very good. I heard from the old man that she breaks a door every time she enters her office."

"Moreover, she obeys summons but not decrees, and the old man can't do anything about her."

Haneda also knew Tsunade's temperament, so the probability of success was extremely low.

Even though he and she did have a fairly good relationship, he was ultimately neither Nawaki nor Naruto.

"This is a mission; just do it according to the mission," Haneda said succinctly.

He was thinking about practicing Wood Release on his way to the Land of Hot Springs.

Since the chances of success are slim, I won't waste my time.

As for Tsunade, let whoever wants to deal with her coldness go ahead; Haneda tried it once and refused to put up with it again.

Hearing such a confident answer, Asuma wanted to slap himself.

Haneda-nii-san actually used his persuasive skills to talk Kakashi, who used to be so aloof! He even pulled Sakumo-sensei out of the rumors!

With such extensive experience, Brother Haneda will definitely succeed!!

Asuma smiled confidently and said:

"Even if Lady Tsunade dislikes the old man, those two old men and women, and the inherently evil Danzo, she still finds them somewhat repulsive."

"But Lady Tsunade is, after all, the granddaughter of the First Hokage, and Konoha was founded by her grandfather!"

"With Brother Haneda's persuasive reasoning and emotional appeal, we're sure to succeed!!!"

???

Haneda gave Asuma several strange looks; he had no hope for this mission at all.

How can Asuma be so confident in himself?!

Haneda thought to himself that he wasn't good at verbal sparring either!

Sending the Minato couple would have a higher chance of success than sending them themselves.

Red noticed the embarrassment in Haneda's eyes and said to Asuma:

"Let's pack our things and get ready to go on a mission with Haneda."

“Okay!” Asuma replied with a smile. He took a few steps, then turned back to Haneda and said…

"By the way, Brother Haneda, I've already made your bed."

"Thank you," Haneda said softly.

Upon hearing this, Asma immediately became excited and quickened his pace.

He needed to quickly prepare his things so he could go to the Land of Hot Springs with his older brother, Haneda, on a mission.

Asuma became even more excited at the thought of witnessing Haneda's persuasive talk and Tsunade's mastery of persuasion.

Tsunade's return to the battlefield to confront Chiyo of Sunagakure once again is a scene that will soon be recorded in the history of the Konoha Wars!

Haneda vaguely knew about Asuma's inexplicable self-confidence, but didn't pay much attention to it.

He drew back the curtains and went into his room.

He noticed the blankets folded into neat squares and the sheets so tidy that even he was ashamed, and Yuda couldn't help but smile slightly.

Although Asma is a bit eccentric, he is quite serious about his work.

Especially in terms of how they treat friends.

…………

Inside the meeting room, apart from the two commanders, Sakumo and the Nara clan chief, everyone else had left.

The Nara clan chief asked, "Lord Sakumo, is it really possible for Uchiha Haneda to invite Lady Tsunade?"

“It’s difficult. But does it matter?” Sakumo asked rhetorically.

Nara clan chief, considering Haneda's importance in winning over the Uchiha clan and Asuma's identity, guessed Sakumo's true intentions.

It was almost impossible for Haneda and his team to succeed in carrying out this mission.

But the person performing the task is above the task itself.

This was not only Sakumo's public-spiritedness, but also his personal motives.

Chapter 126: Add money!

The Land of Hot Water is located in the northeastern part of the Land of Fire, near the Land of Lightning.

As its name suggests, this place is famous for its hot spring culture.

Hidan, who is immortal, originated from this.

Due to the special nature of the mission, Haneda's squad did not rush to the land of hot springs as quickly as they had when they arrived in the land of rivers.

By the time they arrived in the Land of Hot Springs, a month had already passed.

Yuren Village, a hot spring inn.

Haneda leaned against the edge of the hot spring, her hands pressed against the soft bath towel to make the back of her head more comfortable.

Seeing how lax Haneda was, Asuma couldn't help but say:

"Brother Haneda, didn't we come here to see Lady Tsunade?"

Haneda slightly opened his eyes and said lazily:

"Don't panic. We've just arrived, let's familiarize ourselves with the terrain first."

"And don't you think this hot spring is very comfortable?"

"It's quite comfortable..."

Asuma instinctively answered Haneda's question, but he quickly realized something was wrong and looked at Haneda again.

Suddenly, a bold yet reasonable conjecture came to mind.

Could it be that Brother Haneda is confident and has already thought of what to say to persuade Lady Tsunade?!

No wonder Brother Haneda was traveling so calmly earlier; he was thinking of a good plan!

As expected of Haneda-nii, he thinks three steps ahead for every one he takes!

In fact, the ones who were with Asuma and the red-haired girl were all shadow clones of Haneda.

His true form went to train in Lightning Release and Wood Release alone.

It wasn't that Haneda didn't take the mission seriously at all; it was mainly because Tsunade's position changed frequently.

For a while, they were in the Land of Hot Water, and then they returned to the Land of Fire.

It was Haneda who found the way to Yunin Village.

He collected information about "legendary fat sheep" and "blonde gambling addicts" along the way at the casino.

Taking advantage of the time difference, it took a month of wandering before finally arriving at Tangren Village and receiving the accurate information.

As evening approached and it was almost time, Haneda emerged from the hot spring.
