When Aoba fell to the ground like a salted fish, the water in the hot spring pool splashed down from the sky. The entire pool of water was completely blown up by Tsunade's punch!

Aoba struggled weakly on the ground for a while before standing up with a depressed look on his face.

Because he was forced out of the hot spring pool, he was judged by the dog system to end his mission, and the reward was directly settled.

Originally, he wanted to pull out a few more beginner skill cards, but just because of this line of words, he directly provoked Tsunade. He really deserved to die!

However, compared to the last Sand Eagle mission that he used to provoke Konan, the reward this time was not a loss.

A total of four intermediate skill cards!

This was something that could only be accumulated by doing four silver-level death missions!

Of course, the most valuable part of the quest was still the treasure chest reward. The skill card could only be considered as a bonus.

However, he still had to thank those 'Sand Egle Reader'. Of course, he also thanked Tsunade and Shizune.

This hot spring was really worth it!

Just thinking about how he had spent nearly two months of hard work to use all of the money he had earned for Tsunade, his happiness immediately subsided by half.

Sigh, the losses are heavy!

However, at this moment, Tsunade, who was still standing in the hot spring pool, crossed her arms in front of her chest and said coldly, "You already knew my identity, right?"

Although the previous series of inexplicable actions had indeed fooled her, in the end, when she punched out in anger, the other party's expression was as if he had already known how powerful her punch would be!

If this guy really did not know that she was the legendary Tsunade, then he definitely would not have reacted like this!

This was the biggest flaw!

That was why Tsunade was so sure that the other party must have been pretending not to know her before!

Aoba, who had been seen through, first tightened his bathrobe that he had been desperately protecting. Then, he said very calmly, "Konoha's Shinomiya Aoba has met Tsunade-sama. In fact, I was not very sure before. I only thought that it was someone with the same name. However, under the power of that punch just now, I finally dare to be sure!"

"Other than Tsunade-sama, whose name is well known and whose influence shakes the world, who else can have such exquisite control? She only used one punch to shake all the water out of the pool and did not hurt me at all!"

Since Tsunade had seen through it, then pretending not to know her was playing with snakes.

Fortunately, Aoba had expected this situation in advance, so he suddenly did not feel awkward, and his expression and eyes were extremely sincere!

After all, he had come to be an undercover spy at such a young age, and without an Oscarlevel acting skill, he would not be able to survive!

Besides, he had already completed the Sand Eagle task, so what could Tsunade do to him even if she saw through his real purpose?

Don't forget, age was his greatest protection in front of Tsunade!

In addition, his identity was not fake, and it was impossible for Tsunade to be angry.

It had to be said that Aoba was really thick-skinned!

Even Tsunade, who had expected many kinds of answers, could not help but be stunned. Although the other party's reason was a bit far-fetched, it was not completely unreasonable. After all, ninjas were out on missions, and being cautious was the first principle. One could not trust others easily and could not casually expose his identity and mission content... These were all knowledge that needed to be learned in the ninja school!

This was one of the reasons why Tsunade had not asked deeply before.

But why did it feel like he was flattering her when he said those last words?

At this moment, the door outside suddenly opened. Before the person appeared, a voice came out anxiously, "Tsunade-sama, are you okay?"

The person who came was obviously not someone else but Shizune.

Who let the punch just now cause such a ruckus...

And after seeing the mess inside clearly,

Shizune looked at the two of them with a strange expression... What happened just now?

At this time, Tsunade also felt a little awkward, so she glared at Aoba again, "Let's go out first. I have something to ask you!"

"Yes, Tsunade-sama!"

At this moment, Aoba was very obedient and did not continue to court death.

Even the 'light illusion' that Tsunade released in the end, he did not fall for it!

Because he did not dare to watch it at all!

After all, the last big play had been ruined. If he continued to persist in the character image that was exposed, wouldn't that be asking for trouble for himself!

Now, the real Shinomiya, Konoha's Gemini, Aoba, is online!

...

In the large family guest room, Aoba, who had already changed his clothes, sat opposite Tsunade in a particularly obedient and serious manner. Shizune had also brewed tea and brought it out.

"...The specific situation is like this. Because I was lost in the mountains for three days, I could not find the way back to Konoha, which delayed the trip. Now my companions may not know that I am still alive."

He talked about how he received the mission, how he was attacked, how he stepped forward to lure the enemy away, and how he was rescued. After saying he was lost, the thirsty Aoba thanked Shizune and picked up the hot tea.

The whole thing he said just now could be said to be true and false!

He only made some alterations to the story, and it became that he accidentally met a mysterious person while leading the enemy away.

Then the mysterious person who was angered by the arrogant Kumogakure ninja directly started a massacre, attracting the attention of all the Kumogakure Ninjas. Then the little Aoba took the opportunity to escape.

And the so-called mysterious person was actually one of his own 'Alt', but he chose to throw this to Akatsuki...

After all, the[Crimson Swordsman]was already a member of Akatsuki, so how could it be a mistake to throw it all to Akatsuki?

Thus, Tsunade, who was successfully led astray by him, frowned and muttered to herself, "A black trench coat embroidered with red clouds… A guy wearing a bamboo hat with wind chimes, and a ring that could not be seen clearly in his hand... What is the origin of this organization that calls itself Akatsuki?"

During this period of time, because Akatsuki had not gathered all of his people and had been keeping a low profile, there were still a few people who knew about them.

Although Tsunade did not understand this organization, she could roughly guess from Aoba's description that the other party was not an ordinary person.

"His strength is at least at the level of elite Jonin, or maybe even stronger..." Tsunade immediately made a preliminary estimate of the strength of the other party through the information given by Aoba.
