Chapter 52: You Are Too Bad, This is Innate
"You call that high emotional intelligence? Being single is high EQ now?"
Tsunade directly sneered.
The relationship between the Konoha Sannin was good, so it was fine to joke around.
Mainly, Jiraiya was muttering this.
It really made Tsunade laugh.
"Hehe!"
Jiraiya wasn't embarrassed.
He raised his eyebrows and looked towards Aoyama Ryūun and Kushina.
He said to Tsunade,
"You don't mind?"
Jiraiya could see that Namikaze Minato was interested in Kushina.
Naturally, he could also see that the girl Kushina,
obviously had her whole heart focused on Aoyama Ryūun.
But then again, didn't everyone in Konoha know that Aoyama Ryūun was Tsunade's man?
"What's there to mind!"
Holding her wine cup, Tsunade shrugged indifferently.
Actually, Tsunade was helpless inside.
After all, as Aoyama Ryūun's strength grew, his physique also became more and more inhuman.
Tsunade expressed that sometimes, she really couldn't handle it.
"Hiss!"
But hearing this, Jiraiya couldn't help but suck in a cold breath.
He looked at Aoyama Ryūun as if he was a god.
This was the real big shot.
"What the hell are you looking at? Are you looking for a beating?"
Aoyama Ryūun glared at him angrily. With Observation Haki, no matter how quiet the muttering was,
Aoyama Ryūun could still hear it.
"Hehe!"
Jiraiya just laughed merrily, not minding it.
With a mysterious smile, Jiraiya said to Aoyama Ryūun,
"When you have time, teach me a thing or two!"
"No, you can't learn it!"
Aoyama Ryūun shook his head decisively.
"How is that possible! I am the Toad Sage, Jiraiya!"
Otherwise, I, Jiraiya, refuse to accept this!
"In the Shinobi World, is there anything I, the Toad Sage Jiraiya, cannot learn?"
"After all, it mainly depends on talent!"
"Hm?"
Jiraiya looked at Aoyama Ryūun with an eager-to-learn expression.
At the same time, Aoyama Ryūun also looked at Jiraiya very seriously.
Under Jiraiya's curious gaze, Aoyama Ryūun said, word by word,
"Too ugly! A congenital defect!"
"..."
Jiraiya blinked silently.
Then he pointed to himself, looking at Aoyama Ryūun in disbelief.
"I'm too ugly?"
"Have you not looked in a mirror?"
Aoyama Ryūun was rather surprised. This guy Jiraiya, does he have no self-awareness at all?
"..."
Jiraiya was speechless.
"Hahahaha!"
Tsunade, on the side, burst out laughing.
"I told you, Jiraiya, you're too ugly. High EQ stuff isn't suitable for you at all!"
"..."
Rolling his dead-fish eyes,
Jiraiya looked at Tsunade, then at Aoyama Ryūun.
He stopped talking and just drank his wine by himself.
He scooted closer to Orochimaru.
They are all bad people. I won't talk to them. Orochimaru is better.
"Oh, right!"
With Jiraiya's easy-going personality, he naturally wouldn't get angry or hold a grudge over such a joke.
Instead, he looked at Orochimaru curiously.
"What have you been doing recently? I feel like I haven't seen you in a while!"
"Nothing, just researching ninjutsu."
Orochimaru shook his head and explained calmly.
"So hardworking!"
Jiraiya couldn't help but exclaim.
"Hehe!"
To this, Orochimaru just smiled and said no more.
In reality, Danzō had approached Orochimaru recently.
Orochimaru liked research, and Danzō needed Orochimaru's research results. The two had reached a cooperation.
Orochimaru was responsible for the research, while Danzō needed to provide the supplies required for it.
But Orochimaru wouldn't say this out loud right now.
"Sigh!"
Not saying any more, Jiraiya held his cup,
looked at the bright moon hanging high outside, and couldn't help sighing.
"If only the Shinobi World could stay peaceful like this forever, that would be great!"
This is also what everyone wished to see.
Unfortunately, it was unrealistic!
...
The next day, Aoyama Ryūun was lazing in the courtyard, sunbathing.
When he didn't have missions, Aoyama Ryūun was quite free.
"This is bad!"
Just then, a panicked Kushina ran in from outside.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing Kushina's shout, even Tsunade, who was inside the house, ran out.
She glanced at Aoyama Ryūun first, then looked at Kushina curiously.
"I don't know, maybe she saw some handsome guy. Kids, they're all infatuated!"
Aoyama Ryūun shrugged and joked with a smile.
"You're the infatuated one!"
Kushina retorted without even thinking.
If she was going to be infatuated, she didn't need to be infatuated with anyone else.
"Alright! What on earth happened!"
Tsunade waved her hand helplessly.
This was serious, how could the topic be diverted to other things?
"Oh, right!"
Kushina immediately reacted.
She immediately said to Aoyama Ryūun,
"Mr. Sakumo! Something happened to Mr. Sakumo!"
"Hatake Sakumo?"
Hearing this, Aoyama Ryūun immediately dropped his indifferent expression and sat up from his chair.
Kushina also knew that Aoyama Ryūun and Hatake Sakumo had a good relationship.
That's why she came looking for Aoyama Ryūun as soon as she got the news.
"What exactly happened?"
Aoyama Ryūun frowned at Kushina.
"I'm not sure either. I just heard villagers discussing it this morning, saying Mr. Sakumo is a traitor to Konoha, that he failed a mission!"
"Hm?"
Kushina's words made Aoyama Ryūun realize.
It seemed there should still be some time before Hatake Sakumo's suicide.
It looked like Hatake Sakumo's reputation was too great.
Danzō couldn't wait to get rid of Hatake Sakumo first.
"Failing one mission makes him a traitor to Konoha? Then wouldn't I be a missing-nin?"
Aoyama Ryūun sneered.
Over the years, although Aoyama Ryūun had completed some missions,
even now, Aoyama Ryūun's mission completion rate hadn't exceeded ten percent.
