Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

"Huh? I only drink bubble tea with taro paste."

Hearing the familiar voice, Tsunade turned her head and looked at the white-haired kid waving a straw at her in the corner of the lobby. She rolled her beautiful eyes.

"And I always pay in full. Only stingy people like you would team up with others."

"Tsuna-chan, are we friends?"

Uchiha Gin, who was standing in line, patted the proud little Tsunade, and his dead fish eyes swept across the faces of several children in the corner, with a hint of amusement in his expression.
"We are just classmates in the academy."

Little Tsunade crossed her arms, pursed her lips and explained.

Konoha Academy is a school jointly invested by the Whirlpool Country and Konoha, with the Whirlpool Country providing the money and Konoha providing the manpower. All children of school age in the village can go to school for free.

If these four or five-year-old children do not have the talent for ninja, they will be sent to ordinary classes to learn to count and read, and to receive basic education. Children with the talent for ninja will be enrolled in ninja classes and receive systematic ninja education and training.

Although studying in the school is not compulsory, both wealthy families and poor families will choose to send their children to receive education there.

There is no other reason, because the Hokage and the village party secretary would regularly go to the Konoha Academy to give open classes, tailor future plans for talented children, and carefully answer the difficulties they encountered in their training.

How could anyone miss such a good thing?

Tsunade, who is five years old this year, joined the Konoha Academy Ninja Class not long ago and became a glorious first-year student. She has a very active personality, and the class is full of people of the same age, so she quickly became friends with a few like-minded friends.

"Let's go say hello, classmates~"

"Ok."

After rubbing little Tsunade's head, Uchiha Gin led her to the children.
"Uncle, who are you?"

Seeing that the usually arrogant Tsunade was actually timid in front of this curly-haired guy who looked like an uncle, Jiraiya was surprised and asked,

"Jiraiya, please be polite in front of adults."

The blue-haired Kato Dan hurriedly tugged at Jiraiya's sleeve. Although Uchiha Gin looked harmless, he was wearing a shining forehead protector. One has to know that ninjas cannot be judged by common sense.

What if this curly-haired guy is a heartless pervert?

"That family emblem."

Orochimaru, who was standing quietly at the side, had been secretly observing the details of Uchiha Gin's attire. After discovering a familiar round fan, his body subconsciously tensed up. He had heard from his father that the Uchiha clan were not easy to get along with.

"Uchiha?"

Hatake Sakumo, who also saw Uchiha Gin's identity, half-closed his eyes and began to share the relationship between the person in front of him and Tsunade in his mind.

As a member of the Senju clan, why would Tsunade be accompanied by an adult Uchiha and drink milk tea?
Is it
Hatake Sakumo's eyes suddenly became sharp, and countless discordant images instantly appeared in his mind. He also exuded an inexplicable aura, which made Uchiha Gin, who was looking at the few people, suddenly feel familiar.
Why does this grey-haired kid look the same as Erlang Lao?
"Tsunade, is he your father?"

After staring at Uchiha Gin and Tsunade for a while, the honest and simple Might Dai said something shocking.

"Dai, are you an idiot? Tsunade has straight hair~"

Orochimaru covered his face helplessly. According to genetics, a curly-haired kid would most likely only give birth to a curly-haired kid.

"That's right, how could this uncle be Tsunade's father?"

Jiraiya nodded in agreement.

"Although I'm not, are you polite?"

Uchiha Gin usually doesn't get angry easily, unless he is really angry. As expected, only white hair can disturb his mind, so he raised his hand and gave the white-haired kid a slap.
"Boom~"

"Hey~ what are you doing?"

"Sorry, I can't control myself when I see the white-haired hands."

After taking his hand back, Uchiha Gin said "hug you", but there was no apology on his face.

"Who are you, uncle?"

Seeing the big bump on Jiraiya's head, Kato Dan swallowed his saliva in fear. Sure enough, ninjas are such moody guys. Worried about angering Uchiha Gin again, he hesitated for a moment and asked,
"He is my grandpa~"

Not wanting to see her friend continue to make stupid moves, Tsunade took the initiative to reveal the identity of Uchiha Gin.

"Huh?"*5
Upon hearing this, the five little ones immediately opened their mouths in surprise, their wide eyes filled with disbelief.

"Don't lie, even though he's an uncle, he shouldn't be that old, right?"

Jiraiya rubbed his eyes and glanced suspiciously at Uchiha Gin's smooth, white, collagen-filled face. It's so tight, and you tell me he is your grandfather?
"Yes, Tsunade, isn't your grandfather the Hokage and the village secretary?"

Kato Dan blinked in confusion. As a good student with excellent character and academic performance, he grew up reading the Will of Fire and naturally knew everything about the founder of Konoha.

When Orochimaru and Hatake Sakumo heard this, they nodded secretly in their hearts. The curly-haired man in front of them was an Uchiha, so how could he be related to the Senju clan?

"It's hard for me to explain to you why, but I am indeed Tsuna-chan's grandfather."

Uchiha Gin shook his head, his eyes fixed on the glass of lemonade that the kids were sitting around. Seeing the poor Snow King with a mouth full of sticks, still forcing a smile, he couldn't help but feel sad.

"Since you are Tsuna's classmates, then Grandpa will treat you. You can order whatever you want to drink~"

It was obvious that these little ones were not bad kids. Uchiha Gin, who was full of goodwill, waved his hand and indicated that all the expenses today would be paid by him.

"Is it true?"

Jiraiya's eyes widened, forgetting to continue questioning Uchiha Gin's identity, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at the three-in-one milk tea on the menu on the wall. The price of that tea was as high as 1000 taels, which was out of reach for a child of his special identity.

"I love to tell the truth~"

"But."

"You're so nagging. Just order what I ask you to order. Grandpa Yin is a well-known caring person. What does this little money mean to you?"

Seeing that someone dared to question her grandfather's strength, Tsunade immediately went up to give the white-haired kid an elbow, kicked Jiraiya who was rolling on the ground with a look of surprise, raised her head and said to the other few people who were as cold as a cicada,

"You guys come with me!"

"Then we won't be polite."

The little ones looked at Jiraiya who was groaning in pain, took a step back in unison, looked at each other, bowed to Uchiha Gin, and hurriedly followed Tsunade.

"Hello, Boba milk tea with taro paste, thank you~"

After she skillfully ordered her own, Tsunade turned around and said to the anxious classmates,

"What would you like to drink?"

"Please give me a cup of mango sago."

Kato Dan replied cautiously, not daring to look Tsunade in the eye for more than a second.
"I want to beat the orange with a stick!"

Mighty Dai clenched his fists, looked around, and chose a drink that sounded powerful.

"Ice American."

Orochimaru is very curious about the legendary American coffee that only adults can drink. It is said that adults who have drunk it praised it for being so cool~
"Peach. Four Seasons Spring~"

This name doesn't sound very serious, so Hatake Sakumo chose it.

"Do I deserve to have a cup of three-in-one milk tea?"

Jiraiya, enduring the severe pain in his ribs and wriggling like a maggot, raised his hand tremblingly.

After a while, the little ones returned with their favorite drinks in their hands and the smiles they should have on their faces.
Except for that gray-haired kid, why is he breathing heavily with a flushed face? Is he imagining something?

"Thank you for the hospitality!" The children were quite polite and all bowed to Uchiha Gin to express their gratitude.

"Nothing, I also want to thank you for taking care of my little Tsuna~"

“Don’t dare!!!”

When the little ones heard this, their faces changed immediately and they shook their hands like they were helicopters.

"Tsuna-chan, how do you usually get along with your classmates?"

Uchiha Gin frowned and looked at Tsunade who was sipping milk tea and looking around.
"It's just a very ordinary one~"

"What kind?"

"My great grandfather taught me this. Just an ordinary punch and an ordinary kick."

There was no other choice, so Tsunade had to gesture in the air a few times. There was a faint blue light on her fist, and she seemed to have been born with supernatural powers.

"Thank you for your hard work. If you want anything else to drink, go ahead and order some."

Scratching his curly hair helplessly, Uchiha Gin understood why these little guys looked so terrified. However, since they could survive under Tsunade's fist, they were worthy of being famous guys in future plots.

"Is it true?"

Jiraiya took a big sip of milk tea, his eyes lit up instantly, and he asked immediately without having time to swallow the topping in his mouth. As a result, as soon as he opened his mouth, a black pearl hit Tsunade squarely.

"Since! Come! Also!"

"Aaaah! I didn't mean it!"

"An ordinary punch!"

Boom!
"Tsk~ Next time you want to drink, just come and tell me your name and I'll put you on credit."

Looking at the white-haired little devil spiraling up into the sky, Uchiha Gin felt guilty. He turned around and promised the children who looked like frightened chickens,
"Any time?"

Kato Dan plucked up the courage to ask,
"As long as you're in Konoha and alive, you can keep drinking."

"Great! Thank you, Grandpa Yin!"

The little ghosts had no intuitive understanding of matters of life and death, they were just extremely happy that they could get drinks for free for a long time.

You are happy too early~
Uchiha Gin looked at the little kids with excited faces and shook his head thoughtfully.

The farce was over, and only Jiraiya was injured. Tsunade glared at the disheveled white-haired kid, then turned to Uchiha Gin and said,

"Grandpa Yin, they are the guys I mentioned before, the ones who worship foreigners and fawn on them!"

"Oh?"

After taking a sip of triple sugar lemonade, Uchiha Gin looked with a little surprise at the kids in front of him who had devoted their lives to Konoha and were willing to die for it. In terms of the will of fire, they should be the strongest group, right?

"Tsunade, what are you talking about? I am a Konoha native!"

Jiraiya bared his teeth, ignoring the severe pain in his body, and stood up to refute,
"Then why don't you like the Nine-Tailed Knight?"

"what?"

The little ones looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never expected that Tsunade would raise the issue of idol fandom to such a high level.
"We didn't say we didn't like the Nine-Tailed Knight, did we? It's just..."

"Just what?"

"Compared to the other knights, the Nine-Tailed Knight has not walked in the ninja world for a long time~"

Orochimaru stuck out his tongue and explained with a bitter look on his face. Then he looked at the iced Americano in front of him and regretted his attempt. It turned out that the adults who drank this didn't say it was too cool, but too bitter.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Gin suddenly realized that it was all his cousin's fault. He felt that as the acting Hokage and the only designated candidate for the second generation, he could no longer continue to show up in public, so he seldom went out on business trips as a knight in recent years, which led to his reputation being buried.

"That's not the case!"

"Grandpa Silver, please judge for yourself who is the strongest Tailed Beast Knight!"

Tsunade was furious, pulling at Uchiha Gin's sleeve, her face full of grievance.
"It must be Grandpa Madara, right?"

"The Hunter Knight Sword is it"

"Ok?"

Jiraiya was about to speak up to defend his idol, but Tsunade glared at him, and he quickly covered his mouth.

"Alright, alright, don't dwell on this issue anymore. It's not up to you and me to decide who is the strongest Tailed Beast Knight, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Several of them raised their heads, their little eyes all looking at Uchiha Gin. As he spoke, they didn't even dare to breathe.
"Tatakai! Isn't the final winner the strongest Tailed Beast Knight?"

"Xu~"

They thought Uchiha Gin would have some insightful ideas, but he only said some vulgar words. So they all lowered their heads in disappointment and continued to taste their drinks.

"Please take your three-in-one milk tea~"

The short gathering came to an end. Jiraiya shamelessly packed a cup of milk tea with toppings. Uchiha Gin was fine, but Tsunade was so angry that she rolled her eyes.

"You are such a shameless guy, you are eating and taking things at the same time."

"Yes, Jiraiya, you are indeed going a bit too far."

The other little ones also stood on Tsunade's side and condemned Jiraiya's greedy behavior.

"."

Being criticized by thousands of people, Jiraiya lowered his head, rarely arguing, silently put away the packaged three-mix milk tea, bowed deeply to Uchiha Gin, and ran out of the store without looking back.

Only Uchiha Gin looked at Jiraiya's thin back, with an inexplicable light in his eyes, and then he disappeared in a flash.
"Forehead?"

The remaining few ghosts all looked puzzled when they saw Uchiha Gin suddenly disappear.

Holding a cup of warm milk tea, Jiraiya ran hard on the path. Suddenly, a big hand pressed on his shoulder, scaring him so much that he almost stumbled.
"who!?"

"Kid, if you want to drink in the future, just charge me, Uchiha Gin, and your friend who didn't come."

Looking at Jiraiya who looked horrified, Uchiha Gin rubbed his prickly hedgehog head and said softly,

"How do you know?"

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Gin actually knew why he packed a cup of milk tea. Jiraiya's nose was sore, and his eyes, which were not wet when he was beaten by Tsunade, were now filled with tears.

"Okay, go ahead, the milk tea won't taste good if it gets cold."

When Jiraiya was packing, Uchiha Gin also heard some subtle murmurs, which meant that his good friend did not come, and he must let him taste his favorite milk tea.

"Thank you, Grandpa Yin."

Jiraiya bit his lip, bowed to Uchiha Gin, then turned and disappeared into the alley.

"Grandpa Yin, what did you do just now?"

Tsunade, who had been waiting for a while beside the Snow King, looked at Uchiha Gin who was strolling over slowly and pouted her lips in anger.

"Just to bring warmth to the lonely." (End of this chapter)
