Naruto: Starting with Tsunade

Chapter 182 Awkward Situation: Being Discovered of Dating

Accompanied by this rustling sound, Tsunade took off Aokiji's shirt, revealing his strong muscles.

"I didn't realize you were so fit."

Tsunade pinched Aokiji's biceps.

Aokiji smiled and said, "It's alright, I train regularly."

Tsunade noticed that there was still one piece of clothing left on his arm, and prepared to untie the bandage on his arm as well.

"Does this need to be untied too?"

"certainly."

"But my hand isn't injured."

Out of caution, Tsunade suggested, "Since we're going to check anyway, let's just check them all at once."

Aokiji nodded in understanding: "So, do I need to take my pants off?"

Tsunade was taken aback: "Why are you taking your pants off?"

Aokiji explained, "Didn't you say you wanted a full-body checkup?"

"Uh... never mind the rest." Tsunade's cheeks flushed slightly. "Let's check it another time."

When is "later"?

Aokiji untied the bandages binding his right hand.

Tsunade noticed the black markings on Aokiji's body and was slightly taken aback: "What's that on your right hand? It doesn't look like paint."

"Oh, you mean this?"

Aokiji didn't hide anything and gave a simple explanation.

However, the learning process has been modified appropriately. For example, the setting of using money to learn immortal techniques has been changed to normal cultivation.

Tsunade looked surprised upon hearing this: "I've never heard you mention this before."

Aokiji laughed and said, "You didn't ask, did you?"

Tsunade pursed her lips. "Okay~"

Aokiji waved his hand boastfully, "How about I show you a couple of moves?"

"Come on, I don't want to be provoked by you."

Tsunade pouted. She had only heard of Sage Mode, but these people had already learned it.

Sometimes you can't help but sigh, comparing yourself to others is really infuriating, but then you think about it, and it seems like the other person is your boyfriend, and Tsunade suddenly becomes more open-minded.

After Tsunade carefully examined Aokiji's upper body, she patted his chest and concluded, "Very good, he looks healthy and there are no aftereffects."

Aokiji finished dressing: "I told you, I'm fine."

Tsunade looked at the Heart of the Ocean in her hand, and a thought struck her: "Aokiji, wait a minute, I also have a gift for you."

Aokiji was taken aback: "Huh, I have one too?"

"Of course, I won't take your things for nothing." Tsunade took out the necklace from her chest and handed it over.

Looking at the crystal necklace in front of him, Aokiji raised an eyebrow in surprise: "This is...?"

"This is a memento from my grandfather, and I'm giving it to you now."

"This isn't a good idea..."

Aokiji remembered that this thing seemed to have a curse effect; whoever it was given to would die. Apart from the protagonist, the grass on the graves of the two people in front of him had been cut countless times.

Tsunade's face beamed with an innocent smile: "This is my lucky necklace. Just as this necklace brought me luck, I hope it can bring you luck as well."

No way! This necklace is practically poisonous!!!

Just like the principle of not believing in ghosts and gods, but respecting them.

Aokiji is not superstitious, but he wouldn't be so foolish as to challenge superstitions either.

Aokiji refused with both hands, saying, "This is too expensive, I really can't accept it."

"It's alright, just accept it." Tsunade gripped the Heart of the Ocean tightly, a faint smile on her face. "I've already received a much better alternative~~"

Aokiji said he really didn't want this broken necklace.

But Tsunade's enthusiasm was too much to refuse, so he had no choice but to accept it reluctantly: "Alright, since you put it that way..."

At that moment, Aokiji felt as if he had swallowed two pounds of arsenic, and tears even welled up in his eyes.

Tsunade thought Aokiji was just moved and confused, and said with a smile, "Come closer, I'll put it on for you myself."

Aokiji sniffed and leaned forward.

Tsunade personally put the cursed necklace on her boyfriend and asked how he felt: "How do you feel now?"

Aokiji forced a smile: "I want to cry..."

"I feel bad if you say that."

Tsunade turned her head away, her cheeks flushed with shyness. She hadn't expected that Aokiji would be so moved by the gift she gave him that he cried. Her heart was filled with warmth, as if the winter sun were shining brightly.

Since things had come to this, Aokiji could only force a smile and change his mood: "You put the necklace on me earlier, now give it back to me."

Tsunade nodded.

Aokiji formed hand seals and summoned an ice mirror.

Then, go around behind Tsunade. The Ocean Star chain is not made of rope, but of metal. To put the necklace on Tsunade, you have to unfasten the clasp on the necklace first.

Looking at the two of them in the mirror, Tsunade smiled, a faint blush creeping onto her snow-white cheeks: "We look like a married couple right now~"

After a while, Aokiji put the Ocean Star necklace on Tsunade, rested his head on Tsunade's shoulder, and said with a smile, "This necklace suits you very well."

Tsunade closed her eyes, gently stroking the necklace, a faint smile on her lips.

Their faces were pressed together, whispering sweet nothings to each other, their affection unwavering.

"Could you please not move for now?"

A soft voice rang out, and Tsunade was stunned as her eardrums were brushed by the breath.

Aokiji grabbed Tsunade's shoulder.

Tsunade was startled and straightened her back.

Aokiji said softly, "Relax."

Tsunade looked confused: "Sure, but why are you grabbing my shoulder?"

"As a reward for your examination of my body earlier, I'd like to give you a shoulder massage."

Hearing that her boyfriend was going to massage her shoulders, Tsunade's mind raced: "This is my first time, so please be gentle."

Aokiji said softly, "Okay, I'll be very gentle."

"Okay, you can begin then."

"If I hurt you, remember to tell me."

"OK."

At first, Tsunade was a little nervous, but as the kneading motion on her shoulders intensified, she became increasingly engrossed in it.

"Does it hurt?"

"It was a little uncomfortable at first, but it became quite comfortable after a while."

When she said those words, Tsunade probably didn't realize how alluring her tone was, which caused Aokiji to use a little more force.

"Wait, this is too much of a shock."

Tsunade's words only fueled Aokiji's mischievous impulse, causing him to increase the force of his blows.

Come, come, don't be shy.

"No, no, I really can't take it anymore, please. Please, I beg you."

Tsunade's adorable antics were so funny that Aokiji couldn't resist teasing her even more.

Although she initially said no, after enduring several rounds of attacks, Tsunade quickly succumbed to the feeling, her eyes and brows becoming tired.

"Um……"

Tsunade, who was enjoying the massage, suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest: "You promised to massage my shoulders, so you took advantage of me, didn't you?"

Aokiji gave an awkward smile and withdrew his wolf claws.

Just as I was thinking about how to explain, I suddenly felt something push my body, and I lost my balance and fell onto the lawn.

At that moment, Tsunade leaned over him, propped her chin on her hand, and smiled radiantly: "Aokiji, did you like my tofu?"

Those moist pupils seemed to hold a pool of spring water, and coupled with that alluring voice, Aokiji blushed slightly.

Seeing this, Tsunade smiled even more happily.

Aokiji realized that he seemed to have been flirted with.

Damn it, I have to get him back.

He turned and pinned Tsunade beneath him, cupping her face in his hands. Just as he was about to thrust, this scene, which should have been full of ambiguity, became awkward because of the close proximity. When Tsunade saw Aokiji's nose, she couldn't help but think of something:

"Wait, did you wash your hands?"

Upon hearing this, Aokiji, who was about to make his move, paused, instinctively asking, "No, what's wrong?"

After having barbecue with Tsunade and the others, he immediately returned to his clan, played a match, and then rushed back to keep his appointment. Naturally, he didn't have much time to wash his hands.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade's face immediately darkened: "Are you trying to get yourself killed?"

Aokiji: ? ? ?

"You touched my face with the hand that dug into that filthy thing. It's over. You've defiled me... I've become impure."

Aokiji muttered to himself, "Big sister, the way you're saying it is easy for people to misunderstand."

Tsunade pushed Aokiji aside and stood up.

Aokiji looked completely bewildered: "What are you doing?"

"I need to find a stream to wash my face."

Aokiji: ...

Tsunade pointed her finger at Aokiji's nose: "And you come over here and wash your hands too, or I won't let you touch me."

Aokiji: ...

Tsunade, you are a Leo, not a Virgo! ! !

……

The forest of death is eerily silent.

rustle.

The sound of his own feet hitting the ground was the sound Orochimaru heard most often on his journey.

"We should be able to reach Akahara soon."

Orochimaru continued talking to himself.

He heard that there was a plant there that grew called red four-leaf clover.

Legend has it that this is a magical plant that can grant any wish.

Of course, Orochimaru wasn't so naive as to believe such a far-fetched legend.

He would go looking for red four-leaf clovers purely out of curiosity about the unknown, and also because he was a bit bored and wanted to find something to do.

As for the threats in the Death Forest, he wouldn't even bother to look at them properly; it would be beneath him.

Back when he was a genin, he easily crossed the Forest of Death; now that he's a jonin, it's only easier for him than before.

As Orochimaru walked along, his eyes and ears were constantly on alert, and his gaze inadvertently fell upon a small stream.

His ultimate goal was Akara, so he didn't care about things like that.

But he still stopped.

He noticed something out of the corner of his eye that caught his attention.

There were two figures near the stream.

Orochimaru was taken aback.

Besides him, who else specifically went to the Death Forest?

It's important to know that, except for the Chunin Exams, the Forest of Death is not open to the public. Anyone who wants to get in usually has to sneak in by climbing over the iron fence like him.

So what is the purpose of these two people appearing here at this time?

Out of curiosity, Orochimaru cautiously approached and saw a man and a woman embracing each other, even kissing intimately.

The couple was very vigilant. Even though Orochimaru was being extremely careful, he was immediately discovered as soon as he got close.

"Yes, sorry to bother you."

Once Orochimaru realized it was about intimacy, he instantly lost interest, gave a casual greeting, and turned to leave.

Although it's incomprehensible why these two people of the same age would get intimate and go all the way to the Forest of Death like thieves, it's clear that this kind of thing is not within Orochimaru's area of interest.

So, after he found out, he left immediately, without any hesitation...

then.

As we walked...

???

Wait a minute, why do these two faces look so familiar?

Orochimaru froze, momentarily thinking he was dreaming.

He turned around, and the two stared at each other.

They recognized each other after exchanging glances.

Orochimaru: ? ? ?

Tsunade: ? ? ?

Aokiji: ? ? ?

Uh... this is really awkward.
