Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 275 A Feast for the Eyes

"Owner."

Two Yugito appeared before Natsume.

Since there was no one else present, she addressed him as "master".

This was decided upon when Natsume and I played the Black Cat Shooting Game in the Land of Waves.

How so?

Natsume does not consider himself a heartless person.

Now that he has completely taken the two Yugitos under his wing, their bodies and souls belong to him.

Since there's no possibility of betrayal now, he actually trusts her.

Although it's a bit... well, to be honest.

Ultimately, the two Yugitos's misfortunes were due to Natsume.

"Naruto Uzumaki refused Jiraiya's offer to become his student."

The two wooden figures knelt before him, raised their heads, and spoke.

"That's exactly what I expected."

Natsume smiled, reached out and ruffled her hair, saying, "Thank you for your hard work."

The two Yugito were slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting to hear those two words from his mouth.

"It's what I should do."

She said after she realized what was happening.

This answer suddenly reminded the two Yugitos of Kumogakure.

It was as if he were having a conversation with the Fourth Raikage.

"Should I continue to monitor them?"

The two wooden figures, having gathered their superfluous thoughts, asked.

"Indeed, you do resemble a member of the Hokage's guard now."

Natsume was pleased with her attitude and said, "There's no need to monitor him. Naruto is the kind of ninja who won't change his mind once he's made a choice."

"Is there anything else?"

The two wooden figures nodded and asked, "If not, I'll go down first."

"I plan to go to Hoshigakure. You will secretly accompany me."

Natsume was planning to be with Kurenai Yuhi.

The reason for inviting the two Yukito was so that we could play games when we had free time.

"Um."

The two wooden figures responded, stood up, and disappeared.

Star Hidden Village is located in the Land of Bears.

It is the only ninja village besides the five great villages that dares to use the Kage.

A meteorite from outer space gave them an inflated ambition.

They even believed that they could replace the Five Great Villages with a meteorite.

However, this meteorite does have some remarkable features.

It can activate chakra, allowing for more flexible use of chakra and the ability to transform it into various shapes.

This is the Peacock's Wonderful Method.

Judging from its performance in the original work, it is actually quite strong.

But it has side effects.

The radiation from the meteorite caused them to grow stronger the more they cultivated, but also to die faster.

It can be described as a life-or-death playstyle.

The origin of the meteorite is not mentioned in the original work.

But in the ninja world, magical things are either related to the native Sage Mode or to the alien Otsutsuki clan.

This meteorite fell from the sky, and it is most likely the latter.

In other words, it belongs to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

As for Natsume, who was her beloved, it was perfectly reasonable and justifiable for her to acquire him.

You can also gain some Fate Points along the way.

There are many supporting characters in the Hidden Star Village who have names and surnames in the original work.

Especially a ninja named Natsumi.

She was the most talented genius in the history of Xingyin Village, and she had mastered the Peacock Technique to a high level.

Therefore, she became aware of the meteorite's side effects.

She and her husband, Firefly, escaped carrying a meteorite, or star, but were discovered and banished by the Third Star Shadow.

In the end, Firefly died due to the side effects, leaving only Summer to guard Hoshigakure outside.

Time flows on.

The Third Hoshikage realized the danger of the meteorites and decided to stop.

But Jonin Akahoshi refused and murdered him, becoming the acting Hoshikage to continue his training.

The matter was resolved after they encountered our protagonist, Naruto Uzumaki.

Aside from meteorites, Natsume is somewhat interested in summer.

Don't misunderstand, it's not because I want to emulate the legacy of Cao Cao.

Furthermore, he believes that Xia Ri is quite strong.

Let her be the Star Shadow of Star Hidden Village, and while we're at it, let's also take over the Land of Bears.

If the side effects of meteorites could be eliminated, that would undoubtedly be even better.

Natsume put down the documents and massaged his forehead.

There should still be some time before the original storyline unfolds.

Therefore, there is no legitimate reason to intervene.

Then let's forcefully intervene.

Anyway, there's nothing the Hidden Star Village can say.

"Call Hong over here."

Thinking of this, Natsume spoke.

"Yes."

Two wooden figures immediately appeared and walked outside.

Previously, there were secret agents waiting outside the door.

Now that there are two more Yugitos, no more arrangements have been made.

After all, there are many things that are not convenient for others to know.

Not long after, Kurenai Yuhi pushed open the door and came in.

"Natsume, is there something you need?"

"Sister Hong, if there were an opportunity to improve your strength, would you be willing?"

Natsume asked with a smile.

"willing."

Kurenai answered without hesitation, then her expression hardened as she asked, "But can I really still improve my strength?"

She's actually quite skilled in genjutsu, and dealing with ordinary Jonin shouldn't be a problem for her.

But ordinary ninjas have their limits.

Having seen Yakumo Kurama and the Sharingan, she deeply felt her own limits.

And it's very difficult to improve further.

Because she doesn't have a bloodline limit.

Improving is nothing more than learning more illusions and repeatedly gaining proficiency.

However, these seem far too pale and powerless in the face of the bloodline limit interface.

"Can."

Natsume countered, "Doesn't Sister Kurenai trust me?"

"Of course not."

Kurenai Yuhi answered immediately.

"Then come with me on a mission tomorrow."

Natsume picked up the information about Hoshigakure and handed it to her, saying...

"OK."

Yuhiko took the document without even looking at it, and asked, "Since we're both away, who will manage the village temporarily?"

"Hyuga Hizashi, I suppose."

Natsume thought for a moment and said, "It's just one day anyway, it doesn't matter."

"Um."

Kurenai's expression softened, and she smiled, saying, "Natsume, thank you."

"So... how does Sister Hong plan to thank me?"

Natsume blinked, hinting—no, it should be said explicitly.

Kurenai Yuhi stood there, her face gradually turning crimson.

Despite being a young woman, she's still just an innocent girl when it comes to matters of the heart.

The previous kisses were all done secretly.

Now, when asked to do something similar, she suddenly becomes rather shy.

After waiting a moment, Natsume didn't make things difficult for her and said, "Sister Kurenai, don't worry about it, I was just joking."

Kurenai gritted her teeth and suddenly leaned forward.

Across the desk, she leaned down and hugged Natsume.

The soft touch, and the scent of lipstick.

Natsume was slightly taken aback.

He certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.

He reached out and put his arm around her waist, responding as expected.

After a long while, the evening glow faded and Natsume opened her eyes.

She collapsed weakly in his arms, her head resting on his shoulder, breathing heavily through her nose.

Natsume held her without saying a word.

"that……"

Suddenly sensing something, Kurenai blushed and quickly jumped out of his embrace.

Without saying a word, he turned and ran.

It was still too stimulating for her.

"Black Cat".

Natsume leaned back in the Hokage's chair and said, "Help me clean this up."

Two wooden figures appeared, knelt on the ground, and began cleaning.

Kurenai's lipstick was scattered all over Natsume's clothes.

Two hours later.

Natsume glanced at the overworked Yukito Nii and granted her permission to leave work early today.

Not only that, he even became her personal driver and took her home.

That is, the residence of the Uchiha clan.

"summer……"

Mikoto Uchiha noticed the two of them.

But upon seeing the naked black cat, he shut his mouth again.

She was actually a little envious.

The two Yugito can stay by Natsume's side anytime, anywhere.

You can do whatever you want.

But she can't.

After tucking the black cat into the blankets, Natsume patted her head and said, "Get some rest."

The two drowsy Yugito forced themselves to stay awake, responded, and then fell asleep from exhaustion.

Natsume turned and left, closing the door behind him.

"Is she alright?"

Uchiha Mikoto stood at the door and asked.

"fine."

Natsume stepped forward, pulled her into his arms, and said, "How could she possibly be in trouble?"

Both Yukito are Jinchūriki.

The regenerative abilities of Jinchūriki need no further explanation.

Aside from Kaguya Otsutsuki, Natsume's favorite characters are actually Yugito Nii.

Its main characteristic is high resistance.

"Aunt Mikoto, how have you been lately?"

Natsume looked down at her and said, "You need to get some rest during this time."

"I am fine."

Mikoto Uchiha pressed her face against his, a slight smile blooming on her lips, and said, "Our baby is fine too."

"Go to the Land of Snow or the Land of Waves in a while."

Natsume reached out and gently stroked his future child.

Uchiha Mikoto was stunned upon hearing this.

But the reason was soon understood.

If she stayed in Konoha Village, she might be spotted by someone.

That will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

Mikoto Uchiha didn't want to leave any stain on the Uchiha clan.

"Um."

She pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go to the Land of Waves. I haven't seen Ena in a long time."

Mikoto Uchiha and Ena Uzumaki have a good relationship.

After all, we fought side by side.

"She is in the Land of Fire now."

Natsume raised an eyebrow and said, "Then you should go too. It'll help lighten her burden."

"What is she doing in the Land of Fire?"

Mikoto Uchiha was somewhat puzzled.

In her mind, Uzumaki Ena had never left the Land of Waves.

Natsume explained the situation briefly.

Uchiha Mikoto's red lips parted slightly, looking extremely shocked.

What Natsume did was undoubtedly outrageous to her.

In her view, Konoha Village served the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Even the Hokage was appointed by him.

Natsume's behavior is simply outrageous.

But after the initial shock, it becomes understandable.

He was an extremely audacious person.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up like this.

Mikoto Uchiha thought for a moment and said, "I don't know much about business, but I can learn."

"So you're really planning to help her?"

Natsume couldn't help but pinch her cheek and said, "You're pregnant, you should rest, understand?"

Mikoto Uchiha blushed slightly and nodded.

Are you staying today?

She looked up, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"It's still early, I'll stay here for a while."

Natsume glanced at the sky and said.

"Um."

Mikoto Uchiha immediately laughed and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you."

Natsume leaned down and whispered a few words in her ear.

Mikoto Uchiha immediately showed a troubled and surprised expression.

How did they come up with that way of eating?

Delicious food.

Natsume ate a very famous meal from his previous life.

Two hours later, having eaten and drunk his fill, he left the Uchiha clan.

It was already half dark.

Natsume did not use the Flying Thunder God Technique, but instead walked along the road.

"Natsume-sensei."

It's Naruto Uzumaki's voice.

Natsume stopped in his tracks.

"Lord Hokage."

Jiraiya followed closely behind.

He greeted them with a complicated expression.

"Naruto, have you been learning well from Jiraiya-sama?"

Natsume looked him up and down and asked.

"certainly!"

Naruto Uzumaki smiled and said, "I'll work very hard, and I'll definitely achieve results that will satisfy you."

Upon seeing this, Jiraiya felt a mix of emotions.

He could see that Naruto Uzumaki had an unspoken admiration for Natsume.

It's just like Minato Namikaze and him.

In other words, he was indeed too late.

pity.

Jiraiya had previously told Hiruzen Sarutobi that he wanted to take Naruto Uzumaki as his apprentice.

But they were rejected at the time.

He was also busy with the prophecies of Mount Myōboku and did not persist much.

Looking back now, I really regret it.

Natsume couldn't help but smile as he looked at the menacing Naruto Uzumaki.

Still so energetic!

The three chatted for a few more minutes before parting ways.

Natsume returned home.

Tsunade was practicing Wood Release in the courtyard.

He did not disturb them.

Welcome home.

When Shizune saw him, she immediately smiled and said...

"Sister Shizune, shouldn't you come up and give her a hug?"

Natsume stood still and said.

Jingyin was slightly taken aback.

She was a little shy.

But then I thought about how I'd already done things that were even more embarrassing than this.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

She jogged over and hugged Natsume.

"Your fragrance is too strong."

Shizune sniffed and said.

Natsume's face stiffened. He'd forgotten to take a bath.

He whispered, "Don't tell Tsunade. I'll repay you properly tonight."

Jingyin immediately turned her head away, stammering, "I...I..."

Soon, her expression changed, and she grabbed Natsume's hand that was stroking her thigh.

"Wait...wait until tonight."

After saying that, Jingyin ran towards the kitchen.

Natsume let out a breath.

That is, to mute.

If it were Tsunade instead, there might be serious problems.

In fact, Jingyin also understands her situation.

My feelings for Natsume are quite complex.

Sometimes I feel like I'm just an appendage.

But perhaps it's just his personality.

She thought this kind of life was pretty good.

Anyway, she had no plans to get married.

Natsume went to take a shower.

Back in the living room, Tsunade was still in the courtyard.

He then played with his daughter, Chinatsu, for a while.

After dinner, Tsunade didn't continue training but watched TV instead.

Natsume helped Shizune take a bath as a reward for her in advance.

"You two, keep your voices down!"

Tsunade glanced at the sleeping Chinatsu, set up a barrier, and then rushed to the bathroom, where she was given a good scolding by Natsume.

a new day.

Natsume arrived at the entrance of Konoha Village.

Kurenai Yuhi is already waiting.

She changed out of her usual suit jacket and pencil skirt, and instead wore a Konoha Jonin vest, which was quite unusual for her.

But I have to say, this green outfit is really not a good look.

Four thousand words. I took the day off yesterday because I went out for my birthday and came back too late.
