Chapter 53: It's All Obito Uchiha's Fault
Inside the tent, Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya were discussing how to get Kamishiro to summon a ninja hawk.
Minato Namikaze suggested, "Casually fabricate a story about our pns regarding Sunagakure. That way, I think that Kamishiro will immediately summon a ninja hawk to inform the Third Kazekage."
Jiraiya agreed, "Alright, let's do it like that."
Minato Namikaze stood up from his chair and said to Jiraiya, "Then Teacher Jiraiya, you should rest well. I'll go to Kamishiro's tent now to see him and resolve this mission as soon as possible."
"Wait a minute, Minato Namikaze."
Jiraiya and Tsunade stopped Minato Namikaze at the same time.
Minato Namikaze turned around and asked in confusion, "What's up?"
Jiraiya said awkwardly, "Kamishiro probably isn't in his own tent right now. Am I right, Tsunade?"
Tsunade replied expressionlessly, "Yeah, that kid is here."
Minato Namikaze excimed in surprise, "Kamishiro is here too? Did he come here to do odd jobs to avoid the mission?"
Jiraiya coughed dryly and said, "No, Kamishiro got injured and is here for treatment."
"Huh?"
Minato Namikaze was full of questions now.
Kamishiro got injured? Judging from Jiraiya's hesitant look, it seemed that Kamishiro's injury had something to do with Jiraiya and Tsunade.
What had happened during his absence?
Without much thought, Minato Namikaze said to Tsunade, "Lady Tsunade, please take me to see Kamishiro. Then I'll need your cooperation."
Tsunade nodded in agreement and led Minato Namikaze to the tent where Kamishiro and Obito Uchiha were.
Before entering the tent, Minato Namikaze heard the argument between Kamishiro and Obito Uchiha.
"Does this have anything to do with me? It's all your fault, Kamishiro. You made me get beaten up by Lady Tsunade!"
"It's none of my damn business! You're so stupid that you told the whole truth. Couldn't you just sugar - coat it a bit and shift all the bme to Teacher Jiraiya? If you had, neither you nor I would have gotten beaten up!"
"Who knew what to say in that situation? And is there anything wrong with telling the truth?! It's clearly your problem and Teacher Jiraiya's. I'm so innocent!"
"You call that innocent, my ass! You knew about the Puppet too. That counts as withholding information, and it's an even greater crime! You deserved that beating!"
After hearing the argument between Kamishiro and Obito Uchiha outside the tent, based on his understanding of Jiraiya, Minato Namikaze had already guessed some of the truth.
It should be that Jiraiya asked Kamishiro to make an improper Puppet, and then Tsunade found out about it. In the end, they all got beaten up by Tsunade.
Minato Namikaze sighed.
They're all such a pain in the ass.
Although he was mentally prepared, when Minato Namikaze entered the tent and saw Kamishiro and Obito Uchiha with their faces swollen like pig's heads, he was still taken aback.
How hard they must have been beaten!
When Kamishiro and Obito saw it was Minato Namikaze, their eyes all lit up suddenly.
Before Obito could say a word, a familiar Bck Shadow darted out.
Well... it seemed exactly the same as st time when they were discovered while monitoring the Cloud ninjas. Before Kakashi could even finish suggesting a retreat, Kamishiro had already dashed out.
Kamishiro threw himself onto Minato Namikaze and let out a shrill howl: "Lord Minato, you're finally back! I've been bullied here. I've been bullied not only by Obito but also by Lord Jiraiya and Lady Tsunade!"
It was actually Lord Jiraiya who did those bad things and framed me for them. Lady Tsunade believed Jiraiya's snder and gave me a good thrashing. It hurts so much!
Wuwuwu, Lord Minato, I'm seriously injured. You're the kindest to me here. I want to ask you to let me go back to the ninja hospital in Konoha for more thorough treatment!"
Obito stared at the misbehaving Kamishiro in disbelief.
When has he ever bullied Kamishiro?!
Just as Obito was about to protest, he suddenly saw the people behind Minato Namikaze. Immediately, he ducked his head, y down on the bed obediently, and pulled the quilt over his head to py dead.
Minato Namikaze was also very embarrassed now. Shouldn't one at least check who's around before spouting nonsense?
"Kamishiro, get off me first..."
Kamishiro tightened his hold on Minato Namikaze's clothes and wouldn't let go: "No! If Lord Minato doesn't agree to me, I won't get off!"
"Heh, did I bully you? Did Jiraiya frame you for everything? Did I believe snder?"
Hearing this familiar sarcastic voice, Kamishiro's pig-headed face immediately contorted in fear.
Kamishiro got off Minato Namikaze. His eyes were tightly closed, and he staggered around, muttering like in a dream: "As, it's all Obito's doing for using the Sharingan to cast genjutsu on me, making me talk in my sleep. I'm asleep now. No matter who hears these words, they're just the result of Obito's genjutsu making me talk in my sleep. It has nothing to do with me. It's all Obito's doing..."
Kamishiro shuffled over to his own hospital bed, then quickly jumped onto it, wrapped the quilt around himself, and began to tremble.
Obito was immediately panicked. How could someone just shift the bme like this?
Obito quickly lifted the quilt and expined: "I didn't cast genjutsu on Kamishiro. Besides, I haven't even awakened the Sharingan yet! Teacher Minato, Lady Tsunade, you have to believe me!"
Minato Namikaze sighed and said helplessly: "I believe you, Obito."
Then Minato Namikaze turned to Tsunade and said: "Lady Tsunade, for my sake, don't argue with these two anymore."
Tsunade let out a heavy snort.
Minato Namikaze let out a sigh of relief. Tsunade didn't say a word but just grunted, which meant she was giving him this face.
Otherwise, Tsunade would have beaten up Kamishiro again, and Minato really wouldn't have known how to stop her.
Minato said to Obito Uchiha, "I came here to tell you guys that I'm back. Obito, I'll take you to another tent. That way, you won't quarrel with Kamishiro again ter."
Obito immediately agreed, "Okay!"
Obito couldn't wait to get out of the tent with Kamishiro. Who knows what crazy stunts Kamishiro will pull again and get me beaten up by Tsunade.
Now, Obito took one sentence as gospel truth.
That was 'When there's no danger, Kamishiro is the biggest danger!'
So, for his own safety, he'd better stay away from Kamishiro.
Then Minato said to Kamishiro, "Kamishiro, I'll take Obito to another tent. I won't disturb your rest. You have a good rest, and I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Kamishiro stuck his head out of the quilt and bid farewell to Minato, "See you tomorrow, Lord Minato!"
Minato picked up Obito on his back and then gave Tsunade a look. Tsunade understood and followed Minato out of the tent.
