Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 292 Enjoying a Blissful Life

What is meant by "don't want" is actually "want".

Natsume understands.

However, he did not stay.

Mei Terumi has other things to do.

After all, they had just arrived in Konoha, and tomorrow was the first stage of the Joint Chunin Exams, which was the written test.

Besides, with so many people in Kirigakure watching, Mei Terumi wouldn't let him do whatever he wanted.

Unless it's Black Cat or Ena Uzumaki.

The girls listened to Natsume's every word and would do even the most embarrassing things.

But Mei Terumi is not an option.

This Mizukage maintained his due arrogance.

But that's also what makes her so charming.

Natsume returned to the Hokage's office.

The three largest ninja villages participating in the Joint Chunin Exams are naturally Konoha, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure.

Besides these, Amegakure received the most attention.

It was originally a well-known ninja village besides the five major villages.

Because there is a demigod named Hanzo.

Although the outside world is unaware of his death, if the Akatsuki organization is included, his strength surpasses that of the Five Great Villages.

There aren't many named genin in Amegakure.

There were only three people: hydrangea, hibiscus, and water lily.

After being promoted to Chunin, they were sent on an S-rank mission, and all of them died.

Among them, Hydrangea was chosen by Nagato to become a candidate corpse for the Six Paths.

Natsume had reason to suspect that Amegakure deliberately sent them to their deaths.

After all, he had just been promoted to Chunin, and his first mission was S-rank, which seemed a bit illogical.

The three of them were originally going to participate in the Second Joint Chunin Exams, but due to Natsume's butterfly effect, they were sent to participate in this one.

However, it is worth mentioning that the fate points they contributed were the same as those of everyone else.

This means they are destined to carry out S-class missions.

It's time to get off work.

Natsume summoned Shizune and said that he needed to talk to the Mizukage, and that she and Tsunade didn't need to wait for him for dinner.

Silent had no doubts.

Although she knew that Natsume was a womanizer, the Mizukage was far away in Kirigakure, so how could the two of them have any connection?

Moreover, even if such a thing existed, the Mizukage wouldn't dare to mess around with the Hokage.

Therefore, Shizune did believe that he and Mei Terumi were discussing topics related to the joint Chunin Exams.

After she left, Natsume went to the courtyard prepared for Kirigakure.

He had placed a Flying Thunder God mark in the room beforehand.

When the familiar sound of the wind rang out, Mei Terumi's face stiffened, and she felt somewhat helpless.

They did come, just as I expected.

For some reason, she felt a sense of joy.

Mei Terumi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Are you having too much of a leisurely life as Hokage?"

Natsume, observing the sudden allure in her eyes, said, "It's because I missed you."

Mei Terumi was slightly taken aback.

After a moment, he laughed and said, "Besides being nice with your words, can't you do anything else?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt that her words were ambiguous.

Her original intention was to criticize Natsume for only using sweet talk.

But... Mei Terumi cast a glance at him.

Suddenly, he saw him staring straight at him.

The clothes on her body seemed unable to block it.

Mei Terumi lowered her head subconsciously, her eyes sparkling with a subtle allure.

To be honest, if it weren't for her duty as the Mizukage, she would really be willing to live with Natsume.

Because it brings joy to both body and mind.

Natsume reached out and gently stroked her cheek.

Terumi turned her head away, but refrained from making any movements, letting him knead her.

"I haven't eaten yet."

Natsume leaned close to his ear and said, "Lord Mizukage, could you please grant me a meal?"

Mei Terumi paused for a moment, then subconsciously said, "I'll have someone do it."

Natsume shook his head, and amidst her gasp, picked her up, saying, "You do it yourself."

Mei Terumi then realized what was happening.

She couldn't help but kick him while he was in her arms.

The fair, bare feet didn't exert any force at all; it was just like scratching an itch.

Her reddish-brown hair fell down, and her pinkish-glossy skin touched the air, making Terumi Mei feel a little cold.

After all, it's March.

But soon the ice became scorching hot, and fine beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. She was also panting heavily because of the discomfort.

It wasn't until an hour later that she calmed down again.

Natsume glanced at her graceful and alluring figure, then turned and walked into the bathroom.

After washing away the excessive odor, he returned to his room.

Mei Terumi still hasn't woken up.

She closed her eyes, and her breathing gradually became steady.

Natsume raised his hand, tidied her disheveled hair, and then left.

back home.

Tsunade and Shizune had already eaten, but it was still early, so they hadn't gone to sleep yet.

Natsume took off his shoes and walked into the living room.

"You're back."

Tsunade smiled at him and casually asked, "What did you talk about with that Mizukage?"

"Some things about the Chunin Exams."

Natsume said generally, "Since the second and third stages are held in the Land of Water, we discussed the details."

"Why did you give the hosting rights to Kirigakure this time?"

Tsunade couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

She had previously proposed that the event be hosted by Konoha Village.

Because we do indeed have the strength and capability now.

But Natsume unexpectedly gave it away, which she couldn't understand.

"This one?"

Natsume had expected this, so without much thought, he said, "It's related to the Wanli Sunshine Trading Company."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow.

Wanli Sunshine Chamber of Commerce is the most prominent chamber of commerce in the ninja world in recent years.

She had naturally heard about it.

However, she was unaware that the chamber of commerce was founded by Natsume.

She was aware of the previous Gunma Bank and Gunma Casino.

Both still exist today.

However, its influence certainly cannot compare to that of the Wanli Sunshine Chamber of Commerce.

The development in recent years has not been particularly fast.

Tsunade always believed that Natsume was too busy to manage things since he became Hokage.

"Wanli Sunshine Chamber of Commerce has a lot of business in both the Water Country and the Fire Country, but its headquarters are in the Water Country."

Natsume explained, "They are sponsoring this joint Chunin Exams, setting the venue in Kirigakure, and will give us an extra 100 million yen."

Tsunade couldn't help but remark, "They're really rich."

One hundred million is not a small amount.

The fact that they can just take it out so easily shows that they really don't care.

Where the joint Chunin Exams are held is not particularly important.

If it were her, she would definitely agree.

"They are indeed quite wealthy."

Natsume smiled and said, "But he's quite smart; he won't provoke Konoha."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at him and said, "He's a legitimate businessman, not a ninja."

Although she drinks alcohol, she is actually a rather traditional ninja.

Ninjas, compared to ordinary civilians or merchants, actually have quite a bit of integrity.

They make money through commissions or bounties, not by resorting to robbery.

"I know."

Natsume rested his head on her lap, stretched, and said, "Sister, give me a massage. I've had a long day!"

"Okay, okay, okay."

Tsunade spoke with a doting tone, smiling as she reached out and gently patted his head.

As a medical ninja, her skills are quite good.

It's only slightly inferior to Kurenai Yuhi.

After all, Tsunade doesn't know how to serve people.

Natsume is an exception.

A short while later, Jingyin, wrapped in a bath towel, came out of the bathroom.

She glanced at the living room and was slightly taken aback.

It's rare to see Tsunade giving Natsume a massage.

Shizune stepped forward and greeted them.

Natsume's eyes brightened slightly.

Actually, Shizune has a pretty good figure, but she always wears that plain black kimono.

Now, with a bath towel instead, it's subtly alluring.

Especially noticeable was her un-dried hair, which hung down wet.

There were still faint water droplets on her fair neck and collarbone.

"Sister Shizune, I'm so tired."

Natsume blinked, giving a hint.

"You bastard!"

Tsunade pressed down hard, gritting her teeth, and said, "You certainly know how to enjoy yourself!"

Natsume gasped and said, "If this continues, it'll be even more tiring."

Jingyin hesitated for a moment, then sat on the sofa and hugged his legs in her arms.

Natsume immediately felt warm and comfortable.

"Jingyin, you too, don't spoil him like that."

Tsunade looked up and said with a hint of helplessness.

Jingyin's face flushed slightly.

Because Natsume is not honest.

One hand stealthily grabbed the bath towel.

Shizune glared at him.

Natsume chuckled.

This is called reciprocity.

After a while, Jingyin couldn't take it anymore.

"Alright!"

Tsunade sighed and said, "Go to sleep."

Natsume got up, put his arms around the two of them, and walked towards the room.

a new day.

The Konoha Village Ninja Academy was bustling with activity like never before.

Genin from all the major ninja villages gathered together.

They followed the procedure and entered their respective classrooms to prepare for the written test.

Although Natsume reformed the ninja academy, other ninja villages did not.

To appear fair, he set the questions in the same way as in the original work.

"Sasuke-kun!"

Sakura Haruno saw Sasuke Uchiha from afar and immediately ran over.

Her two teammates behind her, Kiba Inuzuka and Shino Aburame, shook their heads helplessly.

They were already used to her infatuated behavior.

However, it must be said that Sakura Haruno was quite good when she was on missions, saving them on several occasions.

Uchiha Sasuke twitched the corner of his mouth.

Naruto, standing to the side, greeted her with a smile: "Sakura, long time no see."

Sakura Haruno quickly responded before standing in front of Sasuke Uchiha.

Hinata Hyuga was not with them.

She is still at home.

Natsume came over and ate breakfast with them.

Otherwise, she would have arrived at the ninja academy much earlier.

"Go, sister!"

Hinata Hanabi stood at the door, waving her hand.

The first stage of the ninja exam is a written test, and no one is allowed to watch, so I didn't plan to go.

As the teacher leading the team, Natsume is required to be present and go through the formalities.

Besides, he hadn't seen the other two students for a long time.

We really should take a look.

While we're at it, let's go play in the water with the Mizukage.

"I will."

Hinata patted Hanabi's head and quickly followed Natsume, the two of them heading towards the Ninja Academy.

Before long, we arrived at the examination venue.

Natsume's arrival attracted a lot of attention.

After he gave his greetings, he found his two students.

"teacher."

Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki said in unison.

"Lord Hokage."

Sakura Haruno and the others followed closely behind.

Natsume glanced around and realized that the new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho had not yet arrived.

However, with Yakushi Kabuto around, it shouldn't be a big problem.

"Go and register."

Natsume smiled and said, "Don't embarrass Konoha."

"yes!"

The group immediately headed towards the corridor.

While we were in the stairwell, a green figure suddenly appeared.

"Naruto!"

It's Rock Lee.

He stretched out his right hand, his blood boiling, and said, "I'll be waiting for you in the third level!"

In the original work, he challenged Sasuke Uchiha.

But now, it's Naruto Uzumaki.

However, since they had already sparred several times before, he wasn't in a hurry.

He planned to surprise Naruto Uzumaki with the Eight Gates Formation in the third stage.

"Then it's a deal!"

Naruto Uzumaki gave a thumbs up, flashing a bright smile, and said.

Many people saw that familiar figure.

Matt Kay.

To be fair, if Naruto had followed him, he might have had a more interesting future.

The Nine-Tails' chakra combined with the Uzumaki clan's physical abilities are off the charts.

If you learn the Eight Gates Formation, that scene won't be any worse than the Rasengan or anything like that.

However, this thing is not easy to learn.

Few people could match the diligence Matt Kay displayed in the original work.

Moreover, it takes too much time.

Naruto Uzumaki has a ready-made cheat code, so he doesn't need to go through all that trouble.

Natsume withdrew his gaze.

After waiting for a while, Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru, and Akimichi Choji hurriedly arrived.

"Lord Hokage."

They saw Natsume, immediately gasped for breath, and shouted.

"Did you run here?"

Natsume raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Our teacher took us to the Death Forest for special training last night."

Nara Shikamaru said with a look of utter despair.

Kabuto must have had a tough training period.

But it must be said that even the most lazy Nara Shikamaru has a sense of competence.

Natsume couldn't help but smile.

Kabuto Yakushi has a very serious personality.

He wasn't as easygoing as Sarutobi Asuma.

Moreover, he is a medical ninja.

They had their own methods to keep them from slacking off.

"The exam is about to start, you can go now."

Natsume waved his hand and said.

The three people quickly left without saying anything more to him.

Yamanaka Ino glanced back at him.

Natsume then waved to her.

The girl's pretty face immediately lit up with a smile, and she happily headed towards the examination hall.

In the original work, cheating was allowed in the first written exam.

Or rather, it tests the candidates' ability to gather information.

Natsume made no changes, letting the group of people dance wildly in chaos.

It's worth mentioning that thanks to Natsume and his parents' guidance, Naruto Uzumaki became much stronger than he was in the original work, when he submitted a blank exam paper.

I've completed most of the questions.

Natsume did not stay to wait, but instead went to the temporary camp in Kirigakure.

In the room, Mei Terumi was looking through some documents.

Even after arriving in Konoha, she did not stop working.

Although she made some modifications according to Natsume's ideas, there were not many results in a short period of time.

After all, the Hidden Mist Village has a limited pool of talent, and it needs sufficient time and space to grow.

"Venue planning?"

Natsume stood behind her and glanced at her.

Mei Terumi had already noticed his arrival, so she wasn't surprised.

She nodded and said, "These are seats prepared for nobles from various countries."

The Hidden Mist Village is shrouded in mist year-round, making the arrangement of the venue particularly important.

If you can't see it clearly, then it's all for nothing.

Moreover, if we don't serve those famous figures and nobles well, our future missions will fall through.

Natsume didn't disturb her, leaning back on the sofa and waiting for her.

The new book by the tech guru py is called "I Can Dataficate Spirits," you can check it out if you're interested.

Synopsis: Under the red moon, monsters roam freely. Humans wield the power of "spirits" to defend their territory, establishing a sanctuary beyond the demonic tide, becoming humanity's last sanctuary!

This is a world of spirits with extraordinary power, where all things possess a spirit, and spirit masters can control all the spirits in the world!

Elves, beast tamers, magical artifacts, the undead, and even... gods!

Programmer Chen Guangming travels through time and awakens his special talent for "spiritual programming," gaining the power to edit everything with spiritual code!

From then on, "spirits" that existed only in fantasy were created: there were dragons of order that wielded the power of data and transcended the ordinary; there were lords of chaos who carried a benevolent will and opened the beginning and the end; and there were abyssal demons that possessed the power to devour all things and existed eternally!

To burn oneself to change the world—that is the ultimate destiny of a programmer!
