Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 340 Prodigy, I Need Your Help in My Cultivation

Half an hour later, the four arrived in town.

None of the four entered the town in their true forms; instead, they used a transformation spell to change their appearance, mainly to avoid revealing their relationship.

After entering town, they agreed to meet at a certain place, and then parted ways. Uchiha Gen took Terumi Mei shopping.

After shopping, before the agreed time, Uchiha Gen took Terumi Mei for a stroll around the town.

As they walked, the two arrived at a place called Tanbaku Street.

Uchiha Gen suddenly realized that he had unknowingly arrived here.

Tanzaku-gai is the place where Jiraiya led Naruto to Tsunade in the original story; it's one of the most famous gambling and entertainment venues in the Land of Fire.

Uchiha Gen had no interest in gambling; he was sworn enemies of gambling and drugs.

So Uchiha Gen didn't linger and immediately took Terumi Mei to explore the area.

As the sun set and night fell, Uchiha Gen led Terumi Mei to the agreed-upon restaurant and entered the private room that Kisame had reserved in advance.

Kisame and Juzo stood up to greet him, and the four of them sat facing each other, chatting casually.

After all the fine wines and delicacies were served, the four of them deactivated their transformations and began to dine together.

After finishing their meal and chatting for a while, the four of them parted ways after settling the bill. Before parting, Uchiha Gen gave Kisame and Juzo a large sum of money to enjoy themselves.

Gen Uchiha led Mei Terumi straight to a luxury hotel in town, while Kisame and Juzo hesitated for a moment and ran to Tanabata Street.

In the luxury hotel suite, Uchiha Gen went to take a shower first, followed by Terumi Mei.

After taking a shower, Uchiha Gen was wearing a bathrobe, while Terumi Mei changed into her newly bought clothes at his request.

A blue strapless dress, a white belt around the waist, black fishnet stockings, and open-toe silver-grey boots.

She has bright green eyes, a delicate and charming face, fair skin, a full figure, and curvaceous body. Her reddish-brown wavy hair covers her back and falls to her knees, exuding a youthful charm with a mature allure.

Mei Terumi has the thickest hair in the original work. She was already thirty years old when she appeared, but now she is only twenty-one years old, which is the best age of her life.

Uchiha Gen, propping his cheek with one hand, lay on his side on the bed. Upon seeing this, his eyes lit up and he said, "Beautiful. It would be even more beautiful if you could turn around."

Mei Terumi, who was supporting her slender waist with one hand, smiled sweetly upon hearing this, and then swiftly threw a punch, her hair flowing and her skirt fluttering.

Mei Terumi, having regained her footing, once again supported her slender, supple waist with her left hand, leaning her body forward dramatically, making the towering snow-capped mountains appear even higher and the deep snow valleys even deeper.

Then, Mei Terumi blinked her left eye, gave a flirtatious look, and lightly pressed her right hand to her pink lips, blowing a kiss—she was the epitome of a female enchantress!

"Demon, I need your help in my cultivation!"

Uchiha Gen shouted, then slapped the bed with one hand and leaped into the air towards Terumi Mei.

Mei Terumi didn't try to playfully dodge; she just stood there, letting Gen Uchiha give her a good hug, giggling all the while...

But Mei Kuroshi quickly stopped laughing, her laughter being completely suppressed.

Uchiha Gen jumped with Terumi Mei in his arms, and the two of them drew a beautiful curve in mid-air before their bodies spun 360 degrees in mid-air and crashed onto the soft bed, bouncing like on a trampoline.

What happened after that is best left unsaid, but from outside the hotel, it could be observed that the lights in that room didn't go out until late into the night...

The next morning, a refreshed Uchiha Gen took the increasingly charming Mei Terumi to the hotel restaurant for breakfast. At the bottom of the stairs, they encountered Kisame, who was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.

"My lord." Upon seeing the visitor, Kisame immediately turned around, stood at attention, and bowed in greeting.

"You seem to have something on your mind," Uchiha Gen said with a faint smile.

"Yes, last night Juzo and I met two extraordinary people, so I wanted to report to you."

"You didn't come to see me last night, so it seems those two people are connected to Konoha."

"Your insight is truly remarkable. Juzo and I happened to encounter two of the legendary Sannin of your village, Tsunade and Jiraiya."

"Um?"

Uchiha Gen raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. Weren't these two supposed to be wandering the world separately? How did they suddenly run into each other?

"Tell me the specifics."

"Last night, around 10 p.m., Juzo and I went to the gambling den for a while and then we got a little hungry, so we found the nearest tavern to get something to eat."

"I bumped into two senior figures at the tavern; they seemed to be discussing something..."

"But these two seniors are extraordinary, so we dared not get too close and therefore did not hear anything."

"The tavern is called Yuanxin Tavern, and Juzo is currently guarding outside the inn where the two seniors are staying," Kisame said quickly.

"You guys have been discovered?"

"The traces of the transformation technique certainly couldn't escape the eyes of the two seniors, but my true identity hasn't been revealed."

Uchiha Gen nodded slightly; Kisame was indeed reliable.

"Are you going to see them?" Mei Terumi asked, glancing sideways.

"Of course I should go and meet him; otherwise, wouldn't that be impolite?"

"But there's no need to rush, I'll stay with you for a while longer," Uchiha Gen said with a faint smile.

Tsunade is elusive and rarely seen; now that we've finally encountered her, how can we not take action?

It was difficult to make a move last time, but this time it's different.

Then Uchiha Gen looked at Kisame: "The name of the inn."

"Junpei Hotel."

Uchiha Gen withdrew his hand from Mei Terumi's, formed hand seals, activated his soul perception ability, and quickly located Tsunade and Jiraiya's positions based on the location of Junpei Inn.

That extraordinary and powerful soul, that unique soul aura, was very easy for Uchiha Gen to discern.

"Call Juzo back. With their combined strength, they're easy to expose."

"I have locked onto them. Unless they leave my range of perception, they cannot escape my lock."

"Yes, sir."

Kisame respectfully responded, then turned and went to do his work.

Genji Uchiha, holding Mei Terumi's hand, continued to dine at the hotel restaurant.

……

Let's go back to last night. When Uchiha Gen was having a good time, Jiraiya, who had finally found Tsunade, invited her to the Motoshin Tavern.

Besides Tsunade, Tsunade's apprentice Shizune was also there, and the two were inseparable most of the time while wandering the ninja world.

At the innermost table of Yuanxin Restaurant, three people sat facing each other. On the table were several dishes of snacks, three wine glasses, and two small white wine bottles, separated by partitions on three sides.

"What do you want from me?"

Tsunade rested her cheek on one hand, drank a glass of wine, and said casually.

"You know what happened in the village, right?" Jiraiya asked seriously after putting down his wine glass.

"Are you referring to the fact that that kid Uchiha Gen was chosen as the Fifth Hokage?"

"Yes."

"What, are you like those old guys who don't want to see an Uchiha become Hokage?"

"I have no prejudice against the Uchiha clan."

Tsunade picked up the sake bottle, filled her own cup, drank it all in one gulp, and then spoke again.

"So you have a problem with Orochimaru's disciple, Uchiha Gen?"

"I have no problem with Uchiha Gen."

"Then why did you bring this up?"

"Have you changed your mind and want to become Hokage?"
