Postponing high-risk actions like this until the last day was the safest plan.
Once facing danger, the moment the mission time expired, they could immediately escape.
Shu silently felt grateful, fortunately the Main God Space paired Tsunade with him this time.
If it were just by himself, it would be impossible for him to do something like sealing the ruins.
Just as the two of them had agreed on the plan and were about to turn around and leave Tonba Lake, Miyuki who was following behind suddenly made a strange sound.
“Ugh… hng…”
A groan escaped her throat, and her body trembled violently.
“What’s wrong with you?!” Kirie was the first to notice her abnormality and wanted to step forward to check.
“Don’t touch her!” Tsunade snapped harshly, then pulled Kirie behind her.
She stepped quickly to the front of Miyuki and swiftly examined her condition.
Tsunade’s expression instantly turned extremely grim.
“She’s infected by the curse! And the spreading speed is very fast, it’s already starting to affect her brain nerves!”
Shu was stunned, “That fast? She shouldn’t have made contact with any spirals, right?!”
“Probably because of this place!” Tsunade looked up and glanced toward the lake water, “The curse radiation near Tonba Lake is far too strong. As an ordinary person, she simply couldn’t endure curse energy of this high concentration!”
“Tch! Sure enough, we can’t linger in this cursed place for long!”
Hearing Tsunade’s words, Shu turned around with deep thoughts, his gaze fixed on Shuichi and Kirie beside him, who were also ordinary people.
Something was strange!
Even though Miyuki was an ordinary person with weak resilience, weren’t Kirie and Shuichi also purely ordinary humans?
They had even spent longer time in this town compared to Miyuki, and had made close-range contact with people affected by the spiral curse.
Yet strangely, they were completely unaffected, and even in the original story they managed to survive until the end.
If it were simply because of the plot armor of the male and female protagonists, but this was now a real world!
In the logic of the real world, it was impossible to have immunity without reason.
a kind of special resistance?
Just as Shu was thinking, from the corner of his eye he saw Tsunade also happen to be staring at Kirie and Shuichi.
The gazes of the two people met in mid-air, and they looked at each other with deep understanding.
Clearly, Tsunade as a top-tier medical ninja also noticed the “absurd” resistance in these two native residents.
However, neither of them voiced it out.
“Now is not the time to think about this.” Tsunade shook her head and refocused her attention on the situation right in front of them.
Seeing Miyuki’s body begin to undergo unnatural distortion, Tsunade immediately made a decisive judgment.
She directly used chakra to forcibly suppress the curse inside the girl’s body.
Miyuki’s body slowly calmed down, then her eyes rolled upward and she fell unconscious.
“I only temporarily suppressed that curse with chakra, but the concentration of energy around here is too high, my chakra won’t be able to last long.” Tsunade hoisted the unconscious Miyuki onto her shoulder and urged, “Hurry up and leave this place! Find a place far away from here to rest!”
Shu also immediately called out to the others: “Quickly get in the car! The further away from the center of town the better!”
The group hurriedly piled into the sedan sedan.
Accompanied by the screeching sound of tires scraping against the ground, the car quickly sped away, leaving Tonba Lake behind.
Half an hour later, they settled into a simple inn in the outermost outskirts of Kurozu Town.
This place was far from the center of town and Tonba Lake, so the oppressive tightness in the air finally subsided quite a bit.
Tsunade placed Miyuki in a second-floor room and began helping her separate the curse energy from inside her body.
Meanwhile, Shuichi and Kirie were impatient to head back.
With the hope of escaping, they now needed to seize the time to persuade their respective family members to pack their belongings and prepare for the final getaway.
Shu sat on the sofa, quietly reorganizing the storyline in his memories.
Even though in his previous life he had read the manga Uzumaki repeatedly, after all, a long time had passed so some details had become blurry.
However, several key scenes were still remembered by him.
For instance, the male student who turned into a slug human due to bullying, the monsters in the hospital specifically sucking human blood, and the female student whose hair mutated into spirals from showing off to each other…
However, because the timeline of the Uzumaki manga was actually somewhat chaotic for the sake of horror and bizarre elements, the sequence of curse events appearing in the early stages might differ.
Until after the total outbreak point of Kurozu Town’s curse, only then would the story no longer be fragmented, and the overall storyline would be considered complete.
Besides, the typhoon that spread the curse to every corner, and after that, the entire town completely turned into hell on earth.
This was a crucial nodal point.
Thinking of this, Shu stood up and turned on the television, switching it to the local news channel.
On the screen, the weather forecaster was pointing toward the cloud map screen and reporting: “It is predicted that this super typhoon, the rarest in a hundred years, will make landfall in our town within the next five days…”
Five days from now, huh?
The timing couldn’t be more perfect.
The five-day survival limit given by the Main God Space happened to be right at the eruption point of the typhoon.
So, actually this mission wasn’t difficult, one only needed to hide until the final day.
Of course, this applied to someone like him who knew the storyline.
If it were an ordinary person, blindfolded, perhaps they wouldn’t even know how they died.
Right at that moment, the guest room door opened.
Tsunade walked out of the room and stretched her body widely.
Following the movement of her two arms stretching upward, the already very tight clothing instantly lifted into an exaggerated arc, the buttons pulled tight as if they would pop off at any second.
Shu who was sitting on the sofa downstairs, upon hearing the movement and looking up, his gaze uncontrollably and completely fixed right there.
“Sss…” Shu took a deep breath inwardly and cursed silently, (No wonder so many Naruto fans couldn’t let her go. Even knowing this woman’s real age could make her a grandmother, but this body shape… is truly no joke. This ‘breast’ size visually estimated has at least reached G-cup level or higher, right?)
(Wait… right now is the 55th year of Konoha, Tsunade seems to only be 42 years old, right? Is this considered someone else’s wife?)
“Hey! Brat, where are those sneaky eyes of yours looking!”
Tsunade’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
“Uh!” Shu quickly changed the subject, “Didn’t look at anything! Just now I was lowering my head to think… yeah, thinking about how we should collect the next points!”
“Hmph!” Tsunade snorted coldly, “Always feel like there’s a very disrespectful sight inside your mind, brat!”
Shu: “😐”
Is this what they call a woman’s sixth sense?
