Yagura was defeated, the Third Mizukage was going berserk, and the other Jonin were holding him back. At this point, no one had the ability to stop the two of them.

One by one, Chunin and Genin hurriedly made way for Shingetsu Seiun and Yekura.

Many people witnessed this scene. Some felt humiliated, while others felt fear.

"Bang!" The fist slammed into the wall, leaving a large dent. The boy with his head wrapped in bandages seemed oblivious.

"The village's leadership is truly disappointing."

"Useless! A bunch of useless trash!"

Not far away, a bright and charming young girl calmly said, "They did their best, Zabuza."

"It's not that they want to let the enemy go, it's that they can't stop them."

Zabuza Momochi turned his head angrily to look at the girl who had spoken: "Don't you even have the courage to fight to the death?"

The girl chuckled lightly: "What right do you, a mere genin, have to point fingers at the higher-ups?"

"Fighting to the death is easier said than done. Does having courage guarantee a good outcome?"

Zabuza Momochi shouted angrily, "So what if you're a genin!"

"Don't forget, you're a genin too."

The girl scoffed, "Even among genin, there are differences."

"My talent is better than yours, and my strength is greater than yours."

"The weak should be aware of their weakness and not talk back to the strong."

Zabuza Momochi narrowed his eyes: "Mei Terumi."

"Talent is not everything."

"One day, I will become a powerful ninja. When facing invading enemies, I will never be like the village's high-ranking officials, cowering and despicable!"

Mei Terumi looked at the excited Zabuza Momochi, but her expression remained calm.

"Let's take a look then."

"Which of us is the future of the village?"

The two fell silent, their gazes fixed on the direction where Shenyue Xingyun and the other had left.

Zabuza Momochi's eyes still held fear.

Leaf Village Demon Star, Scorching Release Leaf Village.

One was already a well-established celebrity, while the other had just risen to fame. But the image of the two fighting fiercely and unrestrainedly was firmly imprinted in his mind.

Although he was dissatisfied with the village leaders' retreat, Zabuza Momochi knew that the two were indeed strong.

He surpassed ordinary Jonin, reaching the level of elite Jonin, or even Kage.

He asked himself the same question.

'Can I get to that point?'

While he was feeling lost, Mei Terumi's beautiful eyes sparkled not far away.

"The Leaf Demon Star..." she murmured the title softly.

His stunning appearance and extraordinary strength left an indelible impression on her.

"Sooner or later, I will surpass you..."

...

"Sigh~"

"Ouch! Be gentle!"

Two hours later, on a small boat at sea, Shingetsu Nebula was treating Yekura's injuries.

The latter had several wounds on his back, and some dust from the fight, which needed to be cleaned before he could use the Palm Immortal Technique.

"Hmm~ I said be gentle."

Shenyue Xingyun said helplessly, "I'm already very light, okay?"

"How can a ninja like you not even be able to endure this little bit of pain?"

Ye Cang gave a soft snort and lay down again.

"Because you're my boyfriend."

"If you were any other medical ninja, I definitely wouldn't say a word."

Upon hearing this, Shenyue Xingyun paused for a moment, then silently increased the intensity.

Ye Cang gasped again.

'What a jerk of a boyfriend, he has no chivalry at all,' Ye Cang An'an thought to herself.

She discovered that Shenyue Xingyun seemed to have a rebellious streak.

When you go along with him, he'll be relatively gentle with you, but if you dare to nitpick or argue, he'll definitely become even more aggressive.

I don't spoil them at all.

Chapter 190 Uchiha Madara

Despite the pain from her injuries, she spoke while lying down: "Are you this unkind to your girlfriends in Konoha as well?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "We'll see."

Yekura: "It depends on the situation. Is it about looks?"

"No," Shenyue Xingyun replied while tending to her wounds. "If there are extenuating circumstances, I am still quite gentle."

“If it’s intentional trolling…” He paused, and just as Ye Cang pricked up his ears to listen intently, he gently increased the pressure on the wound.

“I’ll let her know that won’t work.”

"I...!" The pain from the injury made Ye Cang suddenly lean back, breathing rapidly like a drowning fish.

A moment later, she fell back to her prone position, angrily saying, "You went too far."

Shenyue Xingyun: "I'm healing your wounds, what's wrong with that?"

"Besides, if I hadn't happened to be here today, it's uncertain whether you would have been able to escape."

Yekura fell silent.

Shenyue Xingyun is right.

Without Shingetsu Seiun, she alone might not have been able to escape the siege of Yagura Karatachi and the Kirigakure ninja.

Thinking of this, Ye Cang suddenly came to her senses and asked, "By the way, how did you end up in Kirigakure?"

"Did they follow me all the way here again?"

"What are you thinking?" Shenyue Xingyun replied, "It's just a coincidence."

"And you? Why are you in Kirigakure?"

"Seeking revenge for what happened last time?"

Ye Cang smiled smugly and said, "Of course!"

"I'm the kind of person who holds grudges!"

"Since Kirigakure and Chiyo teamed up to harm me last time, I have to get revenge."

"I learned that the Third Mizukage was in poor health, so I went to great lengths to secretly infiltrate Kirigakure."

"Taking advantage of the Third Mizukage's unpreparedness, we launched a sneak attack from behind! He was blown up."

Shingetsu Nebula: "So, the Three-Tails' rampage was also your fault?"

"Mm." Ye Cang nodded.

“I came prepared, and the Third Mizukage was caught off guard.”

"His control over the Three-Tails was already at its limit, but under my sneak attack, he couldn't suppress it at all and went berserk!"

"Pity."

"If I hadn't been injured, the two of us could have teamed up to further provoke the Three-Tails, and Kirigakure would have been in even more trouble."

Shenyue Xingyun shook his head.

Yecang is right, she is indeed very vengeful.

What are you planning to do next?

"How about... you come back to Konoha with me?"

Ye Cang turned to look at him: "Didn't we talk about this last time?"

"Going to Konoha is not very realistic for me."

Shenyue Xingyun said, "That was true last time. However, recently, I've suddenly come to understand something."

Ye Cang: "What's the reasoning behind that?"

Shenyue Xingyun said, "As long as you are strong enough, you don't need to think too much most of the time."

"Both of us are stronger than ordinary Jonin."

"I will bring you back to Konoha. No matter how you look at it, the village leaders will not harm you."

In reality, it was Shenyue Nebula who figured it out.

The system's task was to recruit Yekura to Konoha, but it didn't say that Yekura had to make any significant contributions to Konoha.

Making Pakura a Konoha ninja is considered bringing her back to Konoha, but making her sell pancakes in Konoha isn't considered bringing her back to Konoha, is it?

Yecang was unaware of what Shenyue Xingyun was thinking.

She thought the other person was doing this out of good intentions, constantly urging her to go to Konoha.

A gentle smile played on her lips as she rested her chin on her hands, gazing at the ship's deck before her. A hint of delight crossed her face as she asked, "You really want me to go to Konoha that badly?"

"Will I be with you every day from now on?"
