"hiss!"

Kiyoshi suddenly jumped up from the sofa as if he had been stabbed, straightening his back.

"Yuan! What's wrong?"

Tsunade frowned, stood up as well, and wanted to check on Kiyoi Gen's waist.

"It's alright, it's alright, put your shoes on first."

Aino went too far!

Kiyoshi touched the lower back where he had been pinched and gasped.

"Let's get down to business, let's get down to business."

"Tsunade, tell me more about your current situation."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow in confusion, but did not ask any further questions. Instead, she continued speaking in the direction of Kiyoi Gen.

"I feel like I'm just one step away from achieving my goal."

"I've become accustomed to bloody battles within illusions, but..."

"You were never able to face the final scene, were you?"

Tsunade lowered her head in agreement and gave a soft "hmm".

She didn't know why, but on the battlefield constructed by illusion, she didn't feel fear or tremble when she saw bleeding enemies or when she herself bled.

But every time she tries to recreate the scene of Duan's death, she becomes so frightened that she trembles and can't move at all.

Blood seemed to have become her greatest fear again.

Kiyoshi touched his chin.

"Hmm, speaking of which, it's been a long time since we entered the illusion together."

"I want to see the situation in person."

Tsunade looked up and asked.

Are you coming tomorrow?

"No, let's try it now."

Ugh?

But the crimson sunset is gone.

"Xiao Ai can also create illusions, but she needs to rely on the power of arrays and barriers."

"Come with me."

Tsunade slipped her bare, white feet back into her sandals, got up, and followed.

They arrived at an empty room on the second floor, where Ai Kiyoi, dressed in a light gauze nightgown, had just finished drawing the spell for the illusion barrier.

"Oh, wait a moment, I need to take care of something."

Kiyoshi Gen left the room and went to the study next door.

Tsunade looked over in confusion, and then faintly heard the voice of an unfamiliar woman.

"Yuan! No!"

"Trying to run? No way!"

"Mmm!"

What happened next door?

About three minutes later, Kiyoshi Gen walked back into the room, looking refreshed.

He noticed Tsunade's unusually puzzled look and suddenly remembered that the room next door didn't seem to be very soundproof.

However, I won't tell you unless you ask.

"Let's get started."

Kiyoshi Gen was the first to step into the ritual space and then sat down cross-legged.

Tsunade had no choice but to give up her investigation and sat down next to Kiyoi Gen.

"Brother, Sister Tsunade, I'm about to use my full power of genjutsu, so please be prepared."

Kiyoi Ai began forming hand seals, then placed her hands on the edge of the spell.

The formation emitted a bright light, pulling the two into an illusion.

It was still in that forest where it was raining heavily.

Tsunade was already quite used to this scene, after all, she had been seeing it every day for more than half a year.

She first sought out Kiyoshi Gen, but Kiyoshi Gen did not replace the other two companions who had traveled with her that time.

Is it hidden in the surroundings?

"Tsuna's Hand"

Tsunade's body trembled, and her eyes became hesitant.

She had heard this voice countless times, but she had to rely on reason to become familiar with it and overcome it.

"I...I don't want to die yet."

Tsunade sighed, slowly lowered her head, and saw the familiar face of Kato Dan.

Kato Dan's eyes were vacant, clearly indicating that he was completely exhausted.

However, at the time, she absolutely did not want to accept this outcome.

I've gradually come to terms with it now.

Looking further down, one could see Kato Dan's abdomen, which had been hollowed out, with bright red blood flowing freely.

"what"

Tsunade felt her whole body stiffen and her breathing become rapid.

I should have gotten used to it by now, and I've even had minor surgeries.

But why, why do I feel a sense of fear?

"Snapped!"

Someone grabbed my shoulder.

Tsunade subconsciously turned around and saw Kiyoi Gen's face; he was still the same as usual.

"Don't be nervous, remember that this is in the past."

"For us, the present and the future are more important."

"Tsunade, from the first treatment until now, you have greatly advanced medical research and are also a great teacher to Shizune."

"Are the decadent days of the past more memorable, or is the present life more worth reminiscing about?"

Kiyoi Gen gently grasped Tsunade's left hand, and at that moment, Tsunade miraculously stopped trembling.

Perhaps because of Kiyoshi Gen's presence behind her, she was reminded of the beauty of her current life.

Yes, she should let herself go.

Tsunade's eyes were resolute as she slowly squatted down.

She gently released Kiyoi Gen's hand and placed her hands on Kato Dan's bleeding abdomen.

Please forgive me for not being able to save you.

I think it's time to forgive myself.

The light of her medical ninjutsu shone brightly, and Tsunade began the treatment with a blank expression.

Just like back then, feeling Kato Dan's life rapidly slipping away, I did my best to treat him.

"Tsuna's Hand"

She could hear Kato Dan's voice, but Tsunade didn't want to recall that sad scene anymore.

May you be happy forever.

Ugh?

Tsunade looked up abruptly, but the illusion shattered, and she saw the original room again.

That last sentence must have been spoken by Kato Dan, who was being manipulated by Kiyoi Ai in the illusion.

"Alright, get up, let's do a test."

Seeing Kiyoi Gen's outstretched hand, Tsunade immediately grasped it and was then pulled up.

She saw Kiyoi Gen pick up a small knife.

"How about we make the wound bigger this time?"

Then Kiyoi Gen grabbed Tsunade's right hand and gestured towards her thumb.

······

"You're not giving me any response at all, it's making me very embarrassed."

Tsunade snatched the dagger from Kiyoi Gen's hand with her left hand.

"You're so indecisive and fussy!"

"Give it to me! I'll do it myself!"

However, just as she was about to cut her own arm, Kiyoshi Gen quickly grabbed her left hand.

"Forget it, just cut my arm instead."

"My bleeding would definitely be more than yours if I were cut."

"puff!"

Tsunade was amused by that remark.

"What are you doing? Who are you targeting?"
