Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 25 The Spirit of the Prime Minister Lives On

Kabuto was taken in as Tsunade's apprentice, but his treatment was far inferior to that of Natsume.

He still lives in the orphanage and will not move here.

Furthermore, the instruction in medical ninjutsu is mostly conducted in silence.

As for Tsunade, she reverted to her old ways, spending her days in casinos and losing everything.

This made Natsume very eager for the reopening of Gunma Company.

If I keep losing, I'll really end up homeless.

early morning.

Natsume sent his wooden clone to class, while his real body went to the Gunma Casino.

He's been keeping Ena and Karin waiting for two days; it's time to go see them.

The Gunma Casino is currently under renovation.

According to Natsume's plan, it will become a six-story building, with different activities and entry fees on each floor, and of course, the service will get better and better.

At the same time, with most houses on Tanbata Street being two or three stories high, a six-story building would stand out and serve as excellent publicity.

After half a month of renovations, the first three floors of the casino have been completed.

After disguising himself, Natsume was able to enter the third floor and knocked on the door of a room.

Soon, Ena Uzumaki opened the door, and upon seeing him, her body instinctively trembled.

"My lord," she greeted him, forcing herself to suppress her fear.

Kakuzu and Sasori had left a very deep impression on her before, and given her current uncertainty about her future, it's perfectly normal for her to react this way.

"How have you been these past few days? Has anyone been bullying you?"

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Natsume thought to himself that she was too easy to arouse his protective and bullying instincts.

"no."

Uzumaki Ena shook her head and said, "Everyone respects me quite a bit."

Natsume closed the door and locked it.

His actions caused Uzumaki Ena to show a look of panic.

Could it be that he's thinking of...?

She pursed her lips; she was willing to sacrifice herself for her daughter, Karin.

But the next moment, she froze.

Because Natsume has returned to his original form, he has become an incredibly cute seven-year-old child.

Uzumaki Ena blinked, and the fear in her heart subsided considerably.

It's just that her face makes her not afraid.

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Natsume, and I'm seven years old."

Natsume didn't mind revealing his true form in front of her, for a simple reason: he could control Uzumaki Ena at any time.

Putting aside her Uzumaki clan's physical constitution, she was just an ordinary person, and she also had her daughter as a weakness.

Besides, it wouldn't matter even if she revealed his identity.

Gunma Corporation was controlled by Tsunade.

Even if Hiruzen Sarutobi knew, he would just ignore it, at most remarking that Natsume was quite clever.

Uzumaki Ena subconsciously covered her mouth to avoid making a sound out of surprise.

She never dreamed that Natsume was just a seven-year-old child.

However, this seems much better than that adult face.

Moreover, if she is seven years old, it is very difficult to do anything to her.

Natsume clearly noticed the change in Uzumaki Ena's expression.

That pitiful quality diminished as the panic subsided.

He raised an eyebrow, took out a pen and paper, wrote a few lines, and said, "Sign here."

"What is this?"

Uzumaki Ena took it, glanced at it, and was immediately stunned.

It says that Natsume spent two million ryo to rescue them, and this debt will be charged to them and they will have to repay it.

In other words, she is now heavily in debt.

Two million taels was undoubtedly an astronomical figure for her.

With a mixture of grievance and panic, Uzumaki Ena asked, "M-Master, is...is this true?"

Natsume looked at her eyes, which seemed about to burst into tears, and nodded in satisfaction.

He likes it.

There was a scientific theory in my past life.

"Cute aggression" refers to the urge some people have to destroy or damage cute things.

For example, when you see a cat or dog, you want to pinch or pet it.

This is actually the brain's balancing mechanism.

Seeing cute things triggers positive emotions, which then need to be countered by negative emotions.

Natsume was always on the defensive with Tsunade, but when he saw Ena Uzumaki, it stirred up his rebellious feelings.

Finally, there's someone he can manipulate at will.

This feeling is truly amazing.

Seeing Natsume nod, Ena Uzumaki felt a wave of despair wash over her.

How could she possibly repay two million taels?

"I'm not used to talking to people with my head tilted back."

Natsume waved and said.

Uzumaki Ena immediately squatted down and pleaded, "Sir, I really don't have that much money."

His tone was quite tragic, evoking pity.

Natsume is currently 1.2 meters tall, but as she squats down, she becomes a head taller than Natsume.

If it were Tsunade, she would already be able to see the steep and deep mountains at this moment.

But Ena Uzumaki, well, poor yet generous.

It's about average.

However, her enviable figure makes up for her shortcomings.

Natsume rested his head on her fragrant shoulder, whispered in her ear, "Look behind you."

Uzumaki Ena's body trembled, then she looked at the IOU, where there was another line of text at the end.

If you are temporarily unable to repay, you can work for your creditors.

She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Uzumaki Ena gritted her teeth, extended her soft, boneless hand, and said, "M-Master, I'm very useful. If you're injured, a bite will heal you."

She is demonstrating her own value.

After all, she didn't have any other abilities.

As a mobile blood bank, it should be able to make a lot of money.

With this in mind, Ena Uzumaki returned to the life of Kusagakure.

Natsume stared at her arm, which was covered in teeth marks, and felt somewhat dazed.

How pitiful and tragic!

He suddenly felt fortunate to be in Konoha Village, where at least he could maintain a relatively stable life.

In other small ninja villages, her fate might not have been any better than that of Uzumaki Ena.

Natsume gently stroked her arm.

Given the constitution of the Uzumaki clan, such injuries are nothing to worry about and will heal quickly.

The marks at this moment prove that her chakra is being depleted too quickly, and her recovery ability can no longer keep up.

Uzumaki Ena's face flushed slightly.

Although she was just a child, the gentle touch made her a little shy.

And no one had ever treated her like that before.

Natsume lifted a strand of her bangs and tucked it behind her ear, then placed his right hand on her head and played with her hair with his fingers.

"I wouldn't do something so wasteful."

He planned to have Uzumaki Ena learn sealing techniques.

When Karin grows up, it will be the same.

The Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques are renowned throughout the ninja world and are extremely powerful, making them arguably the only effective means for ordinary ninjas to deal with tailed beasts.

Let's leave aside Wood Release or Sharingan for now; those are special cases.

As for medical ninjas, Natsume already has Tsunade, Shizune, and Kabuto Yakushi by his side, so adding one more wouldn't make much difference.

However, having two more sealing ninjas can be very useful in certain situations.

The only problem is sealing techniques, especially the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, which are top secrets of Konoha Village.

It's something that's very difficult for ordinary people to obtain.

But for Natsume, it's alright; he can make a deal with Orochimaru.

He is one of the Legendary Sannin and has extremely high authority; he can even read the Book of Seals which contains forbidden techniques.

Actually, Tsunade could also do it, but Natsume couldn't explain the various reasons.

Too much trouble, let's just find Orochimaru.

Upon hearing this, Ena Uzumaki looked puzzled.

Does she have any other functions?

Natsume gently rubbed her fair and soft face, his index finger tracing her lips.

Warm and humid.

He smiled and said, "Your most important thing right now is to get better."

A blush spread from Ena's face to her ears; her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she nodded.

Surprisingly, she didn't find Natsume's actions offensive.

Perhaps it was because he saved her life, plus he was just too cute.

Ena Uzumaki dismissed it as childish pranks.

Although the antics were a bit excessive, they weren't the worst possible outcome.

Natsume felt as if he had obtained a real-life figurine.

He could probably understand the spirit of Prime Minister Cao; it was indeed stimulating, especially in front of her daughter.
