Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

One shouldn't hit a smiling face, and Xiaochun, who was originally planning to confront him, calmed down considerably upon seeing this.

She said coldly, "Nebula Jonin, why have you been gone for so long during this special period?"

"The villagers have been looking for you."

"Oh~" Shen Yue Xingyun suddenly realized, and he explained, "Isn't it because the Hokage agreed to give me a vacation?"

"I'm usually too busy with work to take good care of my health, so I took advantage of the holiday to visit a famous doctor in the neighborhood."

Koharu, turning the bed, asked in confusion, "A famous doctor?"

“Yes,” said Shingetsu Seiun. “That old bastard Onoki attacked us before, and the hidden injuries haven’t healed yet.”

“I’m worried that it will affect my future, so I want to get proper treatment. After all, I’m so young and I have a lot of time ahead of me.”

"We can't leave any problems behind."

Chapter 367 The Hokage Arrives, the Bet

Xiaochun remained silent after changing dorm rooms.

Shingetsu Seiun kept calling him "old thing," and although he was referring to Onoki from Iwagakure, it still sounded rather unpleasant.

"By the way, what did the two consultants want with me again?"

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado exchanged a glance, then said, "The higher-ups have decided to send you to support the front lines."

"He assumed command of the front line and took command of the Yan Yin battlefield."

"Oh!" Shenyue Xingyun exclaimed, "What bad timing!"

"Advisors, I'm really not available right now. How about we give this opportunity to someone else?"

Koharu and Mitokado were taken aback.

Koharu, who was turning over the door, frowned and said, "What, you don't want to?"

The smile on Shenyue Xingyun's face was more formulaic.

He said, "How could I not be willing?"

"I'm willing! Commander-in-Chief, I'm more than willing to take on such a great opportunity. It's just... my health really isn't up to it."

"I guess I've been working too hard, I feel terrible."

"On cloudy days or at night, my knees and elbows feel burning."

"I can't sleep at all."

"How about this, give me some more time, let me heal my injuries, and then I can serve the village again."

Xiaochun was unhappy about switching dorm rooms.

Her eyebrows rose, and she said in a deep voice, "Divine Moon Nebula."

"You need to understand, this is..."

"Ouch!" Shenyue Xingyun suddenly cried out in pain, "No, no, no, my back hurts."

"My knees hurt terribly too."

"That's all for now, advisors. I'm going back to take some painkillers. You two can make yourselves at home."

Before the two could say anything, the door slammed shut with a bang, shoving Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado outside.

"..."

In the quiet atmosphere, the two looked at each other, and gradually, Koharu's face turned ashen.

"asshole!"

"How dare you be so rude!"

"Does he even respect us two advisor elders anymore?!"

Mitokado Yan sighed, "It seems... there probably isn't any."

Xiaochun's eyes twitched when she switched dorm rooms.

"You're just going to stand by and watch me embarrass myself!"

Mitokado Yan: "?"

if not?

Can I still fight him?

...

On the other side, after closing the gate, Shenyue Xingyun immediately activated the soundproof barrier of the courtyard to ensure that the noise outside would not disturb her rest.

He didn't care about Koharu and Mitokado at all.

In his mind, both of them were products of the old era, and in terms of ability and character, they were not even as good as Chiyo and Ebizo from Sunagakure. At least the latter charged into battle for Sunagakure in critical moments, and when the war ended, they knew the principle that 'old people should stay in their coffins'.

Unlike those two, who are still unwilling to be lonely at their age.

Furthermore, it's impolite to show up empty-handed. What kind of person would you be, sending someone to war without even a word?

Putting their visit out of his mind, Shingetsu Seiun went back inside to clean, wiping away dust and hair from the corners. Yekura was coming back tonight; he needed to be prepared…

...

Time passed little by little, and new news came from the front lines every day.

The situation has not improved.

Although Shingetsu Seiun did not actively inquire about the situation on the battlefield, Uzuki Yuhi always managed to deliver intelligence to him in a timely manner.

In return, Shenyue Xingyun would also give the other party a little something.

"Are you really not going?" asked Uzuki Yuhi as she came out of the bathroom at Shinzuki Seiun's house, wiping her mouth as she spoke.

Shenyue Xingyun leaned back lazily in her chair.

"I'll probably go," he replied.

Uzuki Sunset: "Then what are you waiting for?"

Shingetsu Nebula: "Wait for the Hokage."

Shen Yue Xingyun knew that the situation at the front was unfavorable, and he would definitely have to go out.

This has nothing to do with how Hiruzen Sarutobi treats him. As a ninja from Konoha, as long as he intends to continue living in Konoha, he can't always act on his whims.

If the situation on the battlefield continued to deteriorate, or even if the battle was completely lost, he could imagine that the villagers would definitely not have a good opinion of him.

Without a doubt, he believed in the skill level of both Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo.

While he wasn't as fragile as Kakashi Hatake's father, he didn't want to become a target of public criticism.

The key is that you can't go for nothing.

Uzuki Sunset: "Do you think the Hokage will come back for you?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "He will."

“Those two old guys, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, can't represent his attitude. Only when he comes in person can he put me in a very difficult position.”

Uzuki Sunset: "So confident?"

Shenyue Xingyun smiled and looked at her: "Want to bet? I bet he'll come by tomorrow night at the latest."

"Although I think there's a higher chance he'll come during the day today."

Maoyue Sunset: "What are we betting on?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "If I win, you're not allowed to spit anymore."

Uzuki Sunset: "...What if I win?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "If you win, I will not contact Xiyan for a year."

As the sun set in the twilight month, a glint of light flashed in her bright eyes as she raised an eyebrow.

Shenyue Xingyun said there would be no contact within a year, not no contact after that. But even this condition was very tempting to her.

After all, just a few days ago, when she was speechless, her foolish younger sister, Uzuki Yugao, was still speaking rudely, saying things like "I'll come back to use it"—words brimming with sarcasm.

If she wins, Shenyue Xingyun won't touch her for a year. I imagine the other person must be very upset.

Just thinking about it makes me happy.

But if you lose, you can't spit...

Shenyue Xingyun: "Take your time thinking about it. Don't keep me waiting too long."

The setting sun in the month of Maoyue is caught in a dilemma.

After much deliberation and pacing back and forth, three minutes later, just as Shenyue Xingyun was showing signs of impatience, she made a snap decision.

"I took the gamble."

Then, she saw a look of surprise on Shenyue Xingyun's face, and then she laughed.

Maoyue Xiyang: "What are you laughing at?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "It's nothing. Um... could you go open the door?"

"Open the door?" It took Uzuki Yuhi's brain a couple of seconds to process what she was thinking, and then her expression changed drastically.

"you…"

"What do you mean 'what do you mean'? Go open the door."

"You're cheating!"

"I'm cheating?" Shenyue Xingyun retorted, "Are you confused?"

"It's been several minutes since I asked you if you wanted to gamble."

"Did I know minutes ago that someone was coming?"

Maoyue Xiyang thought about it and realized that it made sense.

The time she spent thinking was enough for her to walk from her home to the Hokage Building. Surely Shingetsu Seiun couldn't possibly sense anything happening at the Hokage Building just by sitting at home?
