After a quick rest, the three of them exited the combat zone and made their way swiftly toward the outpost.
"Xin, are we really okay doing this?"
"Xin, shouldn't we be more cautious?"
"Xin, what are we eating today?"
"Xin, I caught a wild deer. How about we have some roasted venison tonight?"
In just a few days, Nawaki had practically turned into a mini-Xin, or rather, a devoted fanboy.
Completely won over by Xin's cooking, his initial worries-whether it was attracting enemies or getting scolded by the village-had all but vanished.
Nothing bad happened. In fact, the camp even thoughtfully sent them some supplies.
It was downright strange. Had Danzo turned over a new leaf?
Danzo, in his rare show of generosity, sent them fresh ingredients, including the highly coveted beef, a rare sight in the camp.
The three of them sat together, happily enjoying their roasted meat, feeling utterly content.
Xin had no idea what Danzo was up to. But since the food was safe, with no poison detected, why not eat it?
Everything else could be compromised, but he wouldn't skimp on his stomach. A full belly was essential for fighting effectively.
"You three!!"
The voice of an irate Tsunade filled the air as she, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru finally arrived at the outpost. The sight of the trio lounging around, eating delicious roasted meat, sent Tsunade's temper through the roof.
How could they be so shameless?
In the middle of a battlefield, they were eating like kings.
"Move over," Tsunade said, shoving her brother aside to claim his seat.
Jiraiya's eyes sparkled with anticipation, while Orochimaru looked at the three with a strange expression.
Were they here for a vacation or to fight? Their life at the outpost was far too comfortable.
But whatever, those thoughts could wait. The immediate priority was filling their stomachs.
And so, what began as a meal for three quickly turned into a meal for six.
Each one of them ate heartily, their faces slick with grease, exhaling hot breath.
Anyone witnessing this scene would have been utterly shocked.
"By the way, where did you get the beef?" Jiraiya asked once he was full and satisfied.
The camp typically didn't have such luxuries; beef was expensive, and there were no nearby villages to steal it from. Surely Xin and the others wouldn't risk such a stunt just for some good food.
