Chapter 111 Two Women's Private Talk
Kurenai Yuhi smiled, clearly understanding his feelings. She then looked at the silent Shingetsu Seiun beside her.
"Nebula, aren't you happy either? Especially the Jonin~"
Shingetsu Seiun said, "Special Jonin, far inferior to Jonin."
"Moreover, the missions ahead will likely be even more dangerous."
The squad was reinstated to Chunin status at the base, and he was promoted to Special Jonin, from which point on he was directly under the command of the Jonin squad leader.
The sentry duty is no longer necessary; assassinations, attacks, reconnaissance, and guarding important supplies are all extremely dangerous.
The only advantage is that he has a much wider range of movement within the camp. He can travel to most places, except for critical areas.
After finding the Jonin squad leader and accepting his assignments, and settling into the new base, Shingetsu Seiun said to the two, "You two rest first, I'll go out for a bit."
As Sarutobi Asuma, who was about to begin practicing his swordsmanship, instinctively asked, "Where are you going?"
Shingetsu Seiun: "When dealing with special Jonin, do not ask questions that should not be asked."
Sarutobi Asuma: "————"
"Tch~" After Shingetsu Seiun left, Sarutobi Asuma swung his twin swords forcefully, as if Shingetsu Seiun were standing in front of him.
"When I become Hokage, I'll definitely assign you to shovel manure!"
"Don't ask me why; it's the Hokage's business."
A few minutes later, Sarutobi Asuma, who was already in a fantasy of defeating Shingetsu Hoshi, did not notice the approaching footsteps behind him.
"Asuma, you've been working really hard lately."
"Ah!" Sarutobi Asuma was startled, leaping forward and turning to raise his twin swords. But upon seeing who it was, he reluctantly lowered them.
"Mikoto-sensei".
"Why didn't you say hello before you came? You scared me to death!"
"You're just too timid." Uchiha Mikoto laughed, entering the tent with Sarutobi Asuma. Looking at Yuhi Kurenai practicing genjutsu, she nodded and then asked, "Where's Nebula?"
"Where did you go?"
Sarutobi Asuma said, "I just went out."
He thought to himself, "He's probably hanging out with some girlfriend right now."
Although he didn't inform on her, Mikoto Uchiha immediately guessed what Shingetsu Seiun had gone to do.
She sighed, "Xingyun is excellent in every way, but in her personal life—she's a bit too casual."
"I don't know how those girls can stand it—" She paused here, then seemed to think of something and gently bit her lip.
Shaking her head to suppress her wandering thoughts, she began to ask the two if they had encountered any difficulties in their recent cultivation.
When Orochimaru summoned Shingetsu Seiun and the others, she was on a mission outside. She came to see them as soon as she returned, just to give them some guidance on their training.
"Kanako, what do you do when you're with Seiun?"
"Kanako, when did you get together with Nebula?"
"Kanako, what's your favorite thing about Nebula?"
Inside a tent at the campsite, Kanako smiled awkwardly.
She somewhat regretted letting Shiori Muto into her tent.
There weren't many female ninjas in the camp to begin with, and even fewer of them were of the same rank. Plus, she had just gone through a major battle, so she hoped to have a girl her age to talk to.
Unexpectedly, not long after entering, Mutou Saika, after a few casual words, brought up her relationship with Kamitsuki Seiun.
She had no choice but to ask, "Caixiang, wasn't Damu seriously injured?"
"He's your teammate, aren't you going to worry about him?"
"He had a few fractures, but the medical ninjas at the base have already bandaged him up. They've checked on him and shown concern," Mutou Saika replied simply, then asked again, "Kanako, tell me quickly, how do you and Nebula usually get along?"
Kanako looked troubled: "Saika, these topics are a bit too personal."
"Oh, what's the big deal?" Muto Saika said. "What's our relationship? It's no big deal to talk about it."
What's the relationship? Kanako looked puzzled.
They were just ninjas from the same year and who had fought in the same camp area.
"We're girls, boys can't talk about these things. What's wrong with girls talking about these things?" Muto Saika asked, her face full of curiosity.
Kanako smiled helplessly.
Yes, it's common for girls to say these things. But you're Nebula's ex-girlfriend!
Don't you think it's a bit abrupt to ask me these questions?
Seeing that Muto Saika seemed completely oblivious, she thought for a moment and decided to take the initiative.
"Caixiang, before answering your question, could you answer one of my questions first?"
Muto Saika replied without hesitation, "Sure, go ahead and ask."
Why did you and Nebula break up?
,
"What, is it inconvenient for you to say? It's okay if it's inconvenient."
Muto Saika hesitated and said, "N-nothing."
"The pressure from my family was too great, so I had no choice but to break up with him."
"You brought it up?" Kanako's eyes widened. She simply couldn't understand how someone with a perfect boyfriend like Shinzuki Seiun, who had no flaws except for being a little bit of a womanizer, could actually be willing to break up with him.
She pressed further, "What kind of pressure?"
"It's because of Nebula's girlfriend—"
Muto Saika nodded: "That's part of the reason."
"Also, Nebula's strength was too weak at the time, and I felt there was no future with him."
As she spoke, Muto Saika lowered her head dejectedly.
Kanako looked sympathetic.
Considering Shenyue Xingyun's recent display of strength and his recent battlefield encounters, she knew without asking that he must be regretting it.
A moment later, Muto Saika looked up: "Kanako, answer my question."
T
"I haven't heard any news about Nebula for a long time."
Kanako hesitated for a moment, then, faced with Muto Saika's pitiful gaze, she could only say a few words.
"Actually—it's nothing really."
"When I'm with Xingyun, we do things that are good for our health and positive. Like watering the grass on the back hill—"
As they were talking, the curtain was suddenly opened.
The two were immediately startled, but when they saw who it was, Kanako's eyes lit up with a dazzling light.
"nebula!"
As she spoke, she had already gotten up and flown over.
Savoring the familiar scent, Kanako murmured, "Nebula, what brings you here?"
"Have you switched defensive zones?"
Shenyue Xingyun smiled and said, "I promise you."
"I can move around the camps now, and I'll come find you as soon as possible."
Kanako was thrilled. She hadn't expected the happiness that the other party had promised to bring would arrive so quickly.
Beside her, Muto Saika looked on with envy mixed with loneliness as she quietly left the tent.
Standing outside, she could hear faint sounds coming from inside.
"Kanako, this is a camp, it's broad daylight."
"No one will notice during the day."
Strange sounds of fighting could be faintly heard.
Muto Saika stood at the tent entrance, feeling incredibly tormented.
She looked into the distance, thinking that she should escape to a farther place.
""
After a moment, she finally made up her mind—
He turned around and pulled back the tent flap.
