"New mission?" Ritsu turned to look at him and asked, "What new mission?"
"The first four tailed beasts have been captured and sealed, and now we are going to attack the other tailed beasts," Pain said. "The next tailed beast is the Five-Tails Jinchūriki. Didn't you say that any mission to capture a Jinchūriki must notify you, so…"
"Five-Tails…" Ritsu thought about it and shook his head. "I won't go. I don't want to participate in the Five-Tails, Six-Tails, and Seven-Tails. I will take action when it comes to the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails. Let other members of the organization deal with these tailed beasts." The way he increases his evil points is to kill people with high status and power. The Five-Tails, Six-Tails, and Seven-Tails are all supporting roles. They can't increase much evil points, so he is too lazy to waste time.
Hearing this, Pain said in surprise, "You choose not to participate? Well, it's time for other members to go out and stretch their muscles. Then I will notify you when we capture the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails." After he finished speaking, he turned and left the rooftop.
After he left, Yūgao Uzuki curiously asked Ritsu, "You, a fighter, don't participate in the mission of capturing the tailed beasts? Can you tell me the reason?"
"There is no special reason, probably because I don't want to waste too much energy on these boring things," Ritsu said, glancing at Mabui's slightly bulging belly. He frowned and said, "Your figure seems to be a little out of shape recently. Keep exercising; I don't like fat women."
"Well…" Hearing this, Mabui touched her belly, opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she said nothing.
Ritsu stood up and walked downstairs, saying lazily, "You go find Konan. I'm going back to the room to talk to Mei Terumi and the others. Tomorrow you will come to the rooftop to train with me at the same time." Then he went downstairs along the stairs.
Watching Ritsu leave, Mabui sighed, looked down at her belly, and murmured, "I have to find a chance to tell him about the pregnancy…"
At the same time, in the hospital ward of Konoha Village,
Kakashi, whose left arm was empty, was holding the book Icha Icha Paradise with his only remaining right hand, reading it with relish while sitting on the bed. The table next to him was filled with many fruit baskets and peeled fruits.
While Kakashi was reading with relish, the door of the ward was pushed open, and Naruto Uzumaki and Might Guy entered together and came to Kakashi's bed.
"It's you," Kakashi calmly put away Icha Icha Paradise and looked at the two of them. "Shouldn't you be practicing? Why are you here?"
"Of course, I came to visit you," Might Guy carefully looked at Kakashi's body, and when he found that Kakashi's injury had healed, he smiled happily, showing his big white teeth, and said, "Yosh! It seems that you can be discharged from the hospital. So, to celebrate your recovery, how about we have a youthful battle?"
Kakashi was embarrassed, pointing to his empty left arm and said, "Although I want to fight with you, I have lost an arm, and my fighting ability is not as good as before. If I fight with you now, I should not be your opponent."
Looking at Kakashi's empty left arm sleeve, Might Guy's smile faded immediately. He clenched his fists and said hatefully, "The reason why you have become like this is thanks to that traitorous ninja Ritsu. Don't worry; sooner or later, I will avenge you! This is a promise as a close friend!"
"In fact, it's not bad to be injured," Kakashi was not very angry but smiled and said, "Tsunade-sama has agreed that I can step down. In the future, I only need to be responsible for some clerical work, which is quite easy."
After that, he looked at Naruto Uzumaki next to him and said, "You were also seriously injured at that time. Have you recovered completely now?"
"Granny Tsunade cured me a long time ago, and I have recovered a long time ago…" Naruto's face was gloomy. He lowered his head and gritted his teeth, saying, "Sakura-chan, Sakura-chan was killed by that bastard, and Sasuke ran away a long time ago. Now I am the only one left in Team 7…"
Seeing him like this, Kakashi sighed and helplessly comforted him, "And me. Although I can no longer fight, I will still be your teacher in the future, and Sasuke is not dead. Sooner or later, you will definitely be able to get him back. I believe you will."
"No," Naruto shook his head and said firmly, "I will find the murderer who killed Sakura first. I can't face Sasuke before I avenge Sakura."
Kakashi opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
As he was talking, the door of the ward was pushed open again, and this time Tsunade and Shizune walked in.
"Lady Tsunade," Kakashi hurriedly prepared to get up from the bed and salute Tsunade.
Tsunade hurriedly stepped forward to hold him down and said softly, "You are a wounded soldier, so you don't need to salute. Just sit down and listen to me."
"Okay," Kakashi nodded and said, "What does Lady Tsunade want to talk to me about? Are you asking about my injury, or do you have a new mission to arrange?"
"There is a new mission," Tsunade looked at Might Guy and Naruto Uzumaki beside her and said softly, "You two should go out first and wait outside. What I am going to say next is Konoha's secret and cannot be told to others for the time being. Please understand."
"Yes," Naruto and Might Guy didn't say much, turned around, and left the ward.
After the two left, Kakashi said seriously, "Confidential mission? Is it related to the rebels of the Akatsuki organization? What have those guys done recently?"
Tsunade sat down at the head of the bed and peeled an apple for Kakashi, while saying, "It's nothing serious, but… they killed Danzo."
