Tsunade glanced at him and said indifferently, "I didn't realize someone like you would care about others?"

What the heck? How come I don't care about other people? And why do I always feel like there's something hidden in what you said?

Wuyue rubbed her hair in distress and said, "Teacher, I don't quite understand what you mean."

Tsunade glared at him angrily at first, then said, "Tell me honestly, which of the two are you going to choose?"

"Huh? Teacher, I still don't understand!" Wuyue suddenly felt a bit overwhelmed. Is gossiping just a woman's nature?

"Heh, you really think I don't know you're playing dumb?" Tsunade sneered. "Or are you, you little rascal, being greedy and planning to have both?"

Two, both?

Wu Yue was stunned, as if a brand new door had been opened before her eyes.

"Judging from your expression, you really are planning to do that!" Tsunade smirked and said, "Don't blame your master for not telling you, trying to have your cake and eat it too... might capsize."

Will two boats capsize? Would having more boats make things much safer?

Such a thought suddenly arose in Wuyue's mind, but she quickly shook her head. No, no, how could an upright person like herself think like that! As for lovers, isn't it enough to just have Sister Xiaonan?!

After all, the harem and such... While it's tempting, isn't it a bit wrong to do it this way?

Imagine yourself surrounded by a group of beautiful women, such as your older sister, Shizune, Minami, Miyu, and the beautiful teacher in front of you!

Wu Yue's originally upright heart was gradually being stirred.

Seeing him fall into a daze again, Tsunade suddenly found it somewhat amusing, yet also felt a slight bitterness in her heart, an indescribable mix of emotions. She involuntarily reached out and gave Mugetsu a hard knock on the head. "You rascal, are you thinking about something bad again?"

"No, no!"

Wuyue clutched her head, instinctively saying, "I absolutely never intended to add Tsunade-sensei to my harem!" As soon as she finished speaking, she seemed to suddenly realize the terrifying declaration she had just made, and her face flushed crimson. "I'm sorry!"

"You're something else!" Tsunade's lips twitched as she roughly rubbed Mugetsu's cheeks with both hands. "You're dreaming of building a harem? Your ambitions are certainly far-reaching!"

However, for some reason, instead of feeling resistant, she felt a faint sense of joy.

Tsunade felt like she might be going crazy! Otherwise, how could she possibly have such subtle feelings for a child who wasn't even ten years old? She wasn't a boy-lover!

It's an illusion! It must be an illusion!

As Tsunade thought this, the pressure on her hands unconsciously increased, causing Mugetsu to suffer terribly. She let out whimpering sounds, begging for mercy.

· ……

Not far away, Ye Cang, who had been watching this scene, saw his pained expression and opened her mouth, seemingly wanting to stop him. However, perhaps thinking of her own identity and position, or perhaps because of Wu Yue's heartless words, "I don't want to see you again," she suddenly stopped.

Fortunately, a few sounds came from the Sand Village's tent, attracting Tsunade's attention and causing her to temporarily stop what she was doing. It seemed that the Fourth Kazekage had finished discussing the proposal and was leading Chiyo and Ebizo out together.

As expected, after another round of bargaining, the terms were finalized, thus marking the true end of the war between Konoha and Sunagakure.

It's time to leave.

Wuyue breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around.

Make your choice, dear host.

First, the shadows of four generations of relatives.

Second, be close to a thousand generations.

Third, the old Tibetan who is close to the sea.

Fourth, the leaf-loving warehouse.

puff.

Without any warning, Mugetsu suddenly spat out a mouthful of salt water. What the hell?! What is this?! Is this how your damn system wants me to express friendship between Konoha and Sunagakure?

You won! You fucking won!

Wuyue looked like she had eaten dog poop.

He certainly wouldn't kiss a man, much less an old woman. So, amidst everyone's astonished and surprised gazes, Wuyue quickly ran to Ye Cang and, before she could react, kissed her on the lips.

"Congratulations, host, for completing the selection and receiving the reward: fifty days of increased cultivation in all aspects, and five years of increased dragon growth cycle." Just as the system notification sounded, Wuyue Ren had already disappeared from everyone's sight.

Ye Cang, the person involved, was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening, gently touched his mouth, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

(Gentlemen's Exchange Kingdom: **)

089 Konoha's Heavenly Dragon? Panty Maniac?

(Gentlemen's Exchange Kingdom: **)

Just eight days after the ceasefire agreement was signed, the troops on the western front of Konoha returned in triumph.

The Third Hokage led a group of Konoha's high-ranking officials to personally greet them outside the village. Regardless of whether it was genuine or not, he certainly put on a very respectable show, and the smile on his face was like that of an old chrysanthemum in full bloom, leaving almost no room for criticism.

Adding to this were a few emotional speeches, heartfelt greetings, a vision of victory, and expressions of remembrance and mourning for the dead, which moved the returning ninjas to tears.

Even Shizune and Kurenai, who were standing next to Mugetsu, were affected by this emotion, their eyes reddening as if they might burst into tears at any moment.

However, Wuyue himself and his beautiful teacher remained unmoved by this.

One of them was a time traveler who had long been subjected to various forms of modern brainwashing education and had developed immunity to it; the other had completely seen through the nature of war and politics and found such hypocrisy disgusting.

Fortunately, the impromptu speech was very short, lasting only about ten minutes, before the entire army was disbanded. Everyone returned home with excited hearts, expressing their longing for their loved ones.

Of course, there were also some impatient young men who brought home a year's worth of military rations to surrender, or those whose loved ones needed to clear clogged pipes. After all, ninjas are human too, and it's perfectly normal for them to have these emotions and desires.

Tsunade and Mugetsu were left behind by the Hokage.

It wasn't because they didn't listen to the speech properly, but because as the two people who made the most outstanding contributions to this war, and also the Third Hokage's student and grand-student, the Third Hokage felt it necessary to give them a separate talk.

The Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the master and disciple pair before him, nodding with satisfaction and relief, and said, "You did a great job this time! You resolved the conflict with the Sand Village in less than a year. To be honest, even I found it hard to believe when I heard the news."

"Well, it's alright." Tsunade seemed a little absent-minded, and said lightly, "The main problem was that the Sand Village made a mistake in their final decision, otherwise this war would probably have continued for a while longer."

"It wasn't a mistake."

Shaking his head, Hiruzen Sarutobi removed his pipe and exhaled a puff of smoke. "I've read the detailed battle report Shikaku sent; their planning is incredibly sophisticated. First, they used their main force as bait, then led a small squad to bypass Amegakure and launch a surprise attack on our headquarters. Such a tactic is practically impossible to defend against..."

"But in the end, the unexpected Mugetsu appeared." Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and looked at Mugetsu, saying, "The Celestial Dragon of Konoha, truly deserves the title!"

Wuyue scratched his head and said politely, "Not at all, not at all... I'm still far inferior to the teacher and the Hokage."

The title "Koknoha Celestial Dragon" wasn't his own self-chosen name. Rather, it was a title bestowed upon him by the Sand Village ninja during his battle with the Tailed Beasts. The awe-inspiring phantom of that giant dragon standing tall on the battlefield clearly left an indelible mark on the hearts of the Sand Village ninja.

Furthermore, the people of Konoha also felt that the title was very fitting and easy to pronounce, so it spread throughout the entire battlefield.

Although a minority of people believe that this title does not capture Wuyue's imposing image and that "panty maniac" would be a more fitting description, unfortunately, the minority has to yield to the majority, so they have to give up on that idea.

"There's no need to be overly modest."

Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand and said, "I know the power of the Tailed Beasts very well. The fact that you were able to completely suppress it all by yourself is enough to prove everything. Tsunade, you've truly taken on an extraordinary disciple!"

"I don't deny that." As she spoke, Tsunade glanced meaningfully at Mugetsu... "In every sense, it's quite remarkable. In every sense!"

She was still thinking about the image of him running to kiss the Sand Ninja heroine after the negotiations with the Sand Ninja ended. And the astonished expressions on the faces of the Fourth Kazekage and the others when Mugetsu ran away made her so embarrassed that she almost wanted to sever their master-disciple relationship.

Wu Yue naturally understood the meaning behind her beautiful teacher's words, and lowered her head, not daring to meet her gaze.

"Haha, it's rare to hear you praise someone like that."

Hiruzen Sarutobi, unaware of the underlying meaning, assumed Tsunade was genuinely praising him. "Now, let's get down to business. As the greatest contributors to this war, do you have any special requests? In principle, as long as they meet the requirements, I can grant them."

"I want to leave Konoha." Without any hesitation, Tsunade expressed her true feelings.

Both Hiruzen Sarutobi and Mugetsu were taken aback, but surprisingly, they did not show any surprise.

Hiruzen Sarutobi had known about his student's intentions for a long time. Tsunade, on the other hand, told Mugetsu and the others about her decision the day after the battle with the Sand Ninja.

After a moment of silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly sat back down in his chair and said, "I agree. However, I hope you remember that Konoha will always be your home."

Tsunade didn't respond, and it was unclear what she was thinking. She simply sighed softly.

The atmosphere inside the room suddenly became somewhat deserted.

"And what about you?" Hiruzen Sarutobi turned his gaze to Mugetsu, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. "Tell me the reward you desire."

Clearly, if Mugetsu also expressed a desire to leave, the Third Hokage would not agree. Such a monster, such a prodigy, must be firmly bound to Konoha's cause. No matter the means, he must be kept here!

090 A pleasant mentor-apprentice exchange

(Wishing everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival! May your families be reunited! Gentlemen's Exchange Community: **)

Wuyue didn't really care about rewards.

An ordinary ninja would probably take this opportunity to ask for some secret techniques or advanced ninjutsu, but Mugetsu had no such need. After all, he had a good master.

As the princess of the Senju family, Tsunade naturally possessed a considerable number of ninjutsu scrolls.

Even though she herself was a medical ninja specializing in ninjutsu and not particularly interested in it, she wouldn't use such relics of her predecessors to exchange for gambling funds. Well, at least not now. Therefore, it was only natural that she would give them to her only direct disciple—Wuyue.

These scrolls combined are more than enough for Mugetsu's current needs. Add to that his own continuously developed and perfected Lightning Release, Rasengan, and Ice Release techniques, and he's armed to the teeth. Not to mention his even more terrifying swordsmanship and the power of the Heavenly Dragon.

Of course, that doesn't mean he's without desires. For example, he still really wants to explore the "Book of Seals," a secret technique of Konoha from the beginning.

But wouldn't it be a bit too abrupt to bring it up now? After all, neither his teacher nor his adoptive father had ever mentioned the "Book of Seals" to him, which would inevitably raise suspicions.

To be on the safe side, Wuyue decided to refuse the so-called reward. She looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi opposite her, but before he could speak, the system's voice rang out first.

Make your choice, dear host.

First, I want his underwear.

Second, he wants his wife.

Third, he wanted his apprentice.

Nima!

Wu Yue felt a surge of blood rushing to his head, his blood boiling. He didn't want either the old man's loose-fitting boxer shorts or the old woman's wrinkled face!

As for this old man's apprentice... well, if it were my beautiful teacher, then it might be a viable option. But if I were to say that to his face, my fate would surely be tragic!

An image of her own bones being broken flashed through her mind, causing Wuyue to involuntarily shrink her neck and a bead of cold sweat to trickle down her forehead.

But the situation was such that the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be released, so he could only grit his teeth and say in a very low voice, "I... I want your apprentice."

As soon as he finished speaking, the system notification sounded: "Congratulations, host, for completing the selection. Reward: 20 days of cultivation points and 2 years of dragon growth cycle."

ha?

Hiruzen Sarutobi was stunned for a moment, his face full of astonishment. He glanced at Mugetsu, who was looking down, and then at Tsunade, whose lips were twitching and whose pretty face had turned ashen. He suddenly didn't know what expression to use to reply to her.
