Chapter 140
"Hey! You little brat, what are you trying to do?"
Tsunade noticed that Haruto Saito was acting strangely. She called out to him and quickly chased after him, grabbing his arm.
"What else? I'm going to kill him!" Haruto gestured with the kunai in his hand, then stared into Tsunade's eyes.
"You're not going to stop me, are you? We're already back in the Land of Fire. Do we still need Terado as a hostage?"
Haruto lowered his voice, leaned in closer, and whispered,
"Besides, I was the one who put Terado under hypnosis. This was my accomplishment, so I should have the right to decide his fate, right?"
Tsunade's expression turned a little strange. She didn't understand why Haruto was so fixated on personally killing someone. This wasn't the first time he had shown such an obsession.
"I'm not planning to stop you," Tsunade said calmly.
"Then why aren't you letting go of me?" Haruto tried to shake her hand off.
But Tsunade held on tightly and quickly explained,
"I won't stop you, but Orochimaru will. He absolutely won't allow anyone to kill Terado—at least not before we reach Konoha. Orochimaru is the captain of this team. We all have to follow his orders."
