Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 98 The Unique Immortal Arts of the Wet Bone Forest

"If the pressure is not right, please let me know."

Natsume stretched out his hands and placed them on Tsunade's soft shoulders, and said.

"Um."

Tsunade closed her eyes.

The warm touch on her shoulder made her tremble slightly and feel a little weak.

It seems the technology has improved a lot compared to before.

Tsunade's mood was not as calm as she had imagined.

Although it was a small thing like a massage, it was undoubtedly the first proactive step for her.

"Ah~"

Tsunade suddenly shuddered and uttered a meaningless sound, "Don't... touch my ears."

"oh."

Remembering that her ears were her weakness, Natsume asked, "Do you need a foot massage? You must be tired, right?"

"Dirty".

Tsunade patted his hand and said, "I'm going to take a shower first."

Natsume obediently stopped the massage and watched as she took her change of clothes to the bathroom.

If it were Ena Uzumaki, he would definitely ask, "Do you need a bath attendant?"

But he dared not do that to Tsunade.

Natsume sat on the sofa, picked up the water glass she had drunk from, and drank it all in one gulp.

Hmm, it's a little sweet.

About half an hour later, the bathroom door opened.

Natsume subconsciously turned his head to look.

Tsunade had just finished showering; her face was slightly flushed, her blonde hair was loose and still a little damp.

She was wearing white pajamas, which were bulging in front, like a balloon about to burst, swaying precariously.

Her arms and legs were exposed, and she wore slippers on her feet. Her toes glistened with water droplets, making her look quite delicate.

"Give your sister a massage."

Tsunade sat on the sofa, stretched out her legs, and placed them in his palm.

It was soft and warm.

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.

Natsume massaged her quite earnestly for half an hour.

Tsunade bit her lip lightly, and only breathed a sigh of relief after it was over.

Her complexion grew even rosier.

It was as if the air was slightly tipsy, filled with the aroma of ripeness.

Natsume was somewhat lost in thought.

"I'll go cook."

Tsunade felt his burning gaze and quickly got up and ran into the kitchen.

Cook?

Natsume realized what was happening.

No! Sister!

That kind of thing is not something you should do!

Natsume immediately put on the mask of pain.

At this moment, I eagerly await the arrival of the Silent Hero.

But it didn't.

"Eat."

Tsunade propped her chin up, watching Natsume's expression with great interest.

It's been a long time since we last met, it feels quite warm and familiar.

Natsume picked up a grilled fish, took a bite, and subconsciously frowned.

That's weird.

What exactly does this taste like?

It has a slightly fishy and slightly salty taste.

The way the fish was handled was absolutely problematic.

But Natsume still ate them all.

Simply because his love was so deep.

Tsunade was very satisfied. She patted Natsume's hair and said, "Good boy."

She picked up the bowl and chopsticks, turned around, and went into the kitchen.

The sound of the door opening rang out.

Shizune noticed Natsume lying listlessly on the sofa and asked, "Has Tsunade-sama returned?"

Without waiting for a reply, she changed her shoes and ran to the kitchen.

"Lady Tsunade!"

"Mute it."

While washing the dishes, Tsunade asked, "Have you eaten? If not, I'll heat it up for you."

"I've eaten."

Shizune quickly waved her hand, and also expressed her sympathy for Natsume.

She stepped forward to help Tsunade wash the kitchen utensils.

Not long after, the two walked out together.

"How's your Sage Mode training going?"

Tsunade sat down next to Natsume and asked.

"It'll be almost done, right?"

Natsume looked uncertain and a little guilty. He immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to train now."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow and a smile appeared on her lips.

Previously, she quite believed in the Slug Fairy.

But this time her whereabouts were exposed, making her suspicious of the Sage Mode that Natsume had been training for three years without success.

She had just carefully observed his micro-expressions and indeed noticed the problem.

I never expected even the Slug Immortal would betray us.

Tsunade sighed softly, but showed no anger or resentment at being deceived.

Natsume stood in the courtyard, not practicing Sage Mode, but using the Flying Thunder God Technique.

He plans to get it done within this month.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to see Mei Terumi and Ena Uzumaki.

a new day.

early morning.

"Get up, let's go see the Slug Fairy."

Tsunade didn't dare look at him, picked up her coat, and left the room.

She leaned against the wall at the doorway, her face slightly flushed.

He's finally an adult.

Natsume got up, scratched his head, ate breakfast, and then appeared in Shikkotsu Forest with Tsunade.

"Tsunade, you're back."

The slug fairy's gentle voice revealed a hint of joy.

"I'd like to trouble you again today."

Tsuna pointed at Natsume and asked, "Is there something wrong with his Sage Mode?"

"..."

The Slug Sage paused for two seconds, then quickly exchanged glances with Natsume and said, "There's no problem. He can now move on to the next stage and practice the unique Sage Techniques of Shikkotsu Forest."

"You mean he has successfully cultivated Sage Mode?"

Tsunade was slightly taken aback.

What happened?

She was just testing whether the Slug Sage was really lying to her.

But I didn't expect to get this kind of answer.

But this would leave her with no reason to share a bed with Natsume.

For a moment, she felt like she had shot herself in the foot.

"We've succeeded more than halfway."

The Slug Sage's tone turned serious as he said, "Tsunade, your next task is very important."

Tsunade looked puzzled.

"The unique magic of the Wet Bone Forest is only one: Healing Without a Seal."

The slug sage explained, "This is a passive sage technique that can greatly increase self-healing abilities, but it is extremely difficult to cultivate."

Natsume had a bad feeling and quickly asked, "How do I train?"

"Tongue and teeth feel sticky and acidic."

The slug sage spoke terrifying words in a gentle voice, "Natsume will be bathed in this corrosive liquid, undergoing flesh and blood regeneration, and ultimately turning it into an instinctive reaction."

"Is this the only method of cultivation?"

Tsunade's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, and she quickly asked.

While Natsume was horrified, he suddenly understood why Hashirama Senju possessed such a terrifying self-healing ability.

While his immortal body certainly played a role, it was also inseparable from his cultivation in the Wet Bone Forest.

But this is far too painful.

Natsume is worried about whether he can handle it.

He suddenly noticed Tsunade's expression and immediately made up his mind.

The more bitter the situation, the easier it is to control her.

Feelings can also be strengthened.

Of course, this is on the premise that Tsunade already cared about him.

That's how it will be useful.

No pain No gain.

Damn it!

"I can."

Natsume spoke up, "With my sister here, I'm not going to die anyway."

No, you can't.

Tsunade glared at him, her tone firm, and said, "I disagree! It's too dangerous! You can't handle that kind of pain right now!"

She didn't want to see Natsume melt into a skeleton.

In that case, her heart would absolutely ache terribly.

To clarify, even if we ultimately decide not to accept certain female supporting characters due to some unavoidable reasons, we will not give away any female characters.
