CHAPTER 347: KAZEKAGE NINJA-CHAPTER 136: THE LEO GIRL

The tail end of July is Leo, and the damn beginning of August is Leo too.

If your female partner is a Leo, then congratulations—you’ve struck gold. From now on, you’ll have gained a capable partner who can manage everything at home.

Leo girls often possess strong decisiveness and initiative. They handle problems cleanly and efficiently, with simple and straightforward solutions. Your children will have a strong mother, which has quite a positive impact on their growth and development. Even if you slack off completely, a Leo woman can step forward and single-handedly hold up the sky.

If your female partner is a Leo, then sorry—you’ve stepped on a landmine. From now on, there’s an "opponent" in your life.

Leo girls are domineering and mighty, carrying themselves like queens wherever they go. At work, they’re full of drive, daring to take risks, always fighting on the front lines. They never slack off when facing any difficulties or setbacks. This often forms a character that brooks no argument—domineering and tough—and they never yield or compromise. Even if they’re one hundred percent wrong, their way of apologizing is: "Come here, kneel down and listen to my apology."

For such female friends, there’s often a simple and understandable term—Queen.

Kumogakure’s Two-Tails Jinchuriki Yugito Nii is a typical Leo girl. According to Third Raikage A’s description, this crazy girl is incredibly sweet and adorable when you stroke her fur the right way, but if you piss her off, she’ll rip out your liver to go with her drinks.

This personality meshes perfectly with the mischievous Matatabi. In Kumogakure, you constantly hear about Gyūki going on rampages, but you never hear about Matatabi causing trouble.

Feline territorial instincts are no less than canine ones. In her eyes, Kumogakure is her territory, and Kumogakure’s people are her servants (litter box attendants). What are servants? They’re my private property. If I kill them, who’s going to serve me?

When a Leo girl meets a big cat, they immediately produce wonderful chemistry. Their relationship is neither like Mito Uzumaki’s binding chains nor like Master Bunpuku’s Buddhist teachings, but more like close girlfriends—shopping together, gossiping together, getting along very harmoniously. Soon Yugito grew into an outstanding kunoichi, able to enter Tailed Beast transformation through her own will. According to Killer B, Yugito’s future prospects are limitless.

Moreover, Yugito has an extremely strong sense of justice. Since childhood, she’s hated evil like an enemy, loved fighting injustice, and helped the weak against the strong, earning widespread love from Kumogakure’s villagers.

When Third Raikage decided to ally with Sunagakure to attack Konoha, as one of only two Jinchuriki in the village, she was naturally an extremely important asset in the war. But when Third Raikage made the combat request to Yugito, she immediately became unhappy.

"Old man, let’s have some dignity here. What are we doing by attacking now? Is this maintaining justice? No, we’re going to steal meat and share the spoils! Lord Jinghang, the Third Kazekage, fought all the big battles. Now we’re going to pick the fruit? That’s completely dishonorable. I can’t do something so shameless."

This made Third Raikage so angry he almost activated his Lightning Cloak

to beat her up. But this girl was like Zhang Fei selling hedgehogs—tough and prickly. Seeing the situation wasn’t good, she directly "ran away from home."

Speed is crucial in military operations. After smashing several tables, Third Raikage still decided to deploy troops first, while sending out two squads of jōnin with deadly orders to find this damn girl within three months.

They found her—half a month early, even—but Yugito beat up every single one of them. Fortunately, they were all from the same village, or whether they could return breathing would be questionable.

After hearing the injured Kumogakure ninja’s descriptions, Jinghang sucked his teeth. This was getting tricky.

"This is easy to handle. I’ll go personally. She’s gotten too rebellious. Just watch—I’ll tie her up and bring her back."

Third Raikage rolled up his sleeves, ready to head out. Jinghang quickly grabbed him.

"Brother, what’s the point of tying her up? You can’t force a cow to drink water. We need her to face off against the Three-Tails and Nine-Tails. If she’s unwilling and reluctant, how can she fight? That would ruin everything."

"Then what do we do? I can’t convince her anyway."

Third Raikage sat down huffily.

Matatabi appeared twice in the original manga—once when encountering the "Undying Duo" Hidan and Kakuzu. There wasn’t much fighting; she was taken down, seemingly by Hidan. The second time was being resurrected by Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation to fight alongside other Tailed Beasts against Gyūki and Kurama. As for her displayed combat power... honestly, pretty average.

But no matter how average, she’s still a Tailed Beast. If she can’t beat Kurama, can’t she at least hold off the Three-Tails? She could share quite a bit of the combat burden.

Here’s the problem: fighting this kind of battle requires absolute determination to die. She’s throwing a tantrum now—unwilling and reluctant. It’d be better not to fight at all.

Unfortunately, he was currently managing the army’s affairs while setting up the "trap" to capture Kurama, and monitoring Kakuzu’s money-gathering progress. He really couldn’t spare the time, or with some smooth talking plus a quality married man’s charm, he could probably convince that little girl.

Jinghang looked at Tsukigami Kōichi following behind Third Raikage and smiled.

"Young master, how about you make the trip?"

Tsukigami Kōichi shook his head like a rattle drum.

"No good, no good. I’m not eloquent—can’t handle this delicate work."

Right, with your bull-headed temper just like your stubborn father, if you went, I’d be even more worried.

Just as he was troubled, Jinghang caught sight of his adopted son Sasori.

Hey! Isn’t this a ready-made candidate?

In terms of looks, this guy had already replaced him as Sunagakure’s number one heartthrob. Brows like sword edges, eyes like bright stars, lips like vermillion, nose like a hanging gallbladder—even men would be dazed for a moment or two seeing this pretty face.

Plus his noble status—definitely "Third Generation Kage" material with great prospects and considerable strength. Isn’t this the perfect medicine for dealing with—ahem—saving rebellious teenage girls like Yugito?

"Sasori, how about you go persuade this kunoichi?"

"Huh?!"

Sasori was caught off guard.

Jinghang said, "Well, with the great battle imminent, whether Matatabi participates is crucial to the entire war situation. You need to share some of my burden."

Third Raikage and Tsukigami Kōichi also nodded repeatedly.

"Mm, I think Young Master Sasori is reliable."

"Right, it’s decided—you’re the one."

Sasori pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"Alright, I’ll make the trip. I’ll definitely bring Miss Yugito back."

Jinghang smiled and threw his arm around Sasori’s shoulders.

"Come, come, come—your godfather will teach you some conversation techniques. I guarantee you’ll succeed immediately."
