Ninja World: I, Kisame Hoshigaki, am no longer human!

Samui mustered his courage and asked, "If the two people in the office really start fighting, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Don't be nervous, Tsunade and I are catching up. Please prepare a feast and bring out all the specialties of our Cloud Shadow Village. Oh, and don't forget the tender chicken and shochu."

Kisame smiled slightly and gave instructions to the two of them.

"Yes." Upon hearing this, the two dared not delay and immediately busied themselves with preparations.

"Let's get down to business."

Seeing the two secretaries leave, Kisame stood up, plopped down on the sofa, and explained to Tsunade, "The reason I came to Kumogakure is because of the Gold and Silver Brothers. These two guys were resurrected by Nagato using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. Nagato's mission for them was to control Kumogakure and find the ultimate weapon hidden there—the Chakra Energy Cannon. This cannon only needs one shot to destroy Kirigakure's Divine Tree and bury the entire village. So, after receiving the news, I naturally came to stop it immediately and averted this crisis..."

He spoke eloquently, his words half-truths and half-lies, making him very convincing and leaving Tsunade with no point of rebuttal.

It turned out to be the case.

"So, what are you planning to do next? Stay here and become the Raikage?" She crossed her arms and looked down at Kisame, who was sitting on the sofa.

"That might not be a bad idea. You see, you're currently the Mizukage, and I'm the Raikage. Why don't we just represent Kumogakure and Kirigakure and form an alliance? What do you think?"

Kisame joked.

"Is this interesting? What you're doing is no different from children playing house." Tsunade sneered, finding Kisame childish and having no interest in playing role-playing games with him.

"I was just joking. If you don't agree, that's fine too. But since you're already here, why don't you stay for a meal before you leave? The Wagyu beef in Yunying Village is delicious, and the grilled meat paired with high-proof shochu is simply amazing."

Kisame extended an invitation to Tsunade, adding at the end, "Of course, I know you're busy. If you don't have time, that's fine, no pressure."

Kisame's seemingly polite invitation to dinner was actually a way of telling him to leave.

"I have plenty of time."

Tsunade raised an eyebrow and, as always, chose to rebel, plopping down on the sofa opposite Kisame and crossing her legs.

That very evening, Cloud Shadow Village hosted a grand banquet to entertain the distinguished guest who had traveled from afar—Lady Tsunade.

The news spread quickly, causing another huge stir at the high-level meetings of other major ninja villages...

270. The Messenger of Cloud Village

As night falls, Cloud Shadow Village is bustling with activity.

Today, a distinguished guest descended from the sky to Yunying Village. Although she initially had some misunderstandings and minor frictions with the villagers, fortunately, both sides stopped in time and the conflict was not escalated.

This distinguished guest is none other than Tsunade, the Sixth Mizukage, who is now widely recognized as the strongest ninja in the world and is known as the God of Shinobi.

To the surprise of the Cloud Village members, Tsunade seemed to be an old acquaintance of the Fifth Raikage, Takemikazuchi. The two chatted happily in the office, and Tsunade even agreed to stay for dinner.

As the Mizukage, Tsunade's action undoubtedly sent a signal to the outside world—the Hidden Mist Village seemed to intend to establish some kind of friendly relationship with the Hidden Cloud Village.

Ray Shadow Building, Banquet Room.

There were four people at the table: Takemikazuchi, who sat at the head of the table; his two secretaries, Samui and Azabui, on his left and right; and Tsunade, who sat opposite him.

"I won't waste any more time on small talk, let's get straight to the food. Don't be shy, eat and drink as much as you like."

With a wave of his hand, the god of thunder, Kisame, ordered his men to bring out roast beef, tender chicken, and shochu, filling the table and emitting an enticing aroma.

"Who's being polite with you? Humph."

Tsunade gave a soft hum, feeling quite hungry. Her eyes lit up at the sight of the delicious food on the table, and she immediately picked up a roasted beef leg and began to devour it.

"Well, it's delicious."

While eating, she didn't forget to comment, and then picked up a bottle of liquor and gulped down two mouthfuls.

"..."

Seeing Tsunade's unrestrained eating habits, Samui and Azaburo exchanged bewildered glances. They never expected that the seemingly beautiful, noble, and dignified Lady Tsunade would have such a side.

Kisame, however, was not surprised. He smiled slightly and instructed his two secretaries, "Don't just stand there. Treat it like you're having a meal at home. Don't be so reserved."

"Yes, Lord Thor." The two obediently replied and began to enjoy the sumptuous dinner. Of course, their eating manners were much more ladylike compared to Tsunade's.

After several rounds of drinks...

Perhaps it was because the specialty liquor of Kumokage Village was so delicious that Tsunade drank several bottles in one go, her face flushed, and she had unknowingly become drunk.

Not content with drinking alone, she raised her glass and shouted at Samui and Mabui, "You two, drink with me!"

Urged on by her, the two young girls, who had just come of age, drank several glasses in succession, and soon their faces turned red and they could no longer hold their liquor.

"Lady Tsunade, we really can't drink anymore..." they said softly, their faces showing reluctance.

"Stop bullying my secretary, let me keep you company instead."

Kisame opened a bottle of shochu and shook it at Tsunade. He doesn't usually drink, but seeing how much Tsunade was in today, he reluctantly agreed to keep her company.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade stared at Kisame with a dazed look in her eyes. Suddenly, she stood up, picked up a sake bottle, and walked over to him. Finally, she plopped down next to him and slammed the sake bottle onto the table.

Without saying a word, Kisame took Tsunade's sake, tilted his head back, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Alright!" Tsunade's eyes flashed, and she shouted, snatching Kisame's sake bottle and gulping it down.

The two of them drank one glass after another, one bottle after another, until the table was piled high with empty bottles.

Even with her Sage Body, Tsunade ended up completely drunk.

"belch……"

She hiccuped, put an arm around Kisame's shoulder, and swayed as she leaned against him to maintain her balance and avoid falling under the table.

"It's almost time, stop drinking."

Seeing this, Kisame took the wine cup from Tsunade's hand and sighed. This woman's drunken rampage just now was truly an eye-opener.

"Ugh, I insist on drinking it..."

Tsunade mumbled something, but her voice grew softer and softer until finally she tilted her head and fell asleep against Kisame.

Samui and Mabui, who were standing to the side, were already dumbfounded.

Tsunade arrived in Kumokage Village alone, yet she was completely unguarded at the dinner table, getting thoroughly drunk. This is enough to show that her relationship with Lord Takemikaze is quite unusual.

Moreover, in front of Tsunade, Raijin showed another side of himself, no longer as mysterious, cold, and dignified as usual, but like an ordinary man with flesh and blood, joy and sorrow.

Samui and Mabui were greatly surprised by this.

Just then, Kisame reached out and lifted Tsunade, who was sleeping like a log, onto his shoulder.

Then he said to his two secretaries, "You two have had a hard time drinking with this crazy woman today. It's getting late, and you've both drunk quite a bit. You can stay in the guest rooms of the Ray Shadow Building tonight and rest."

"Yes, Lord Thor."

The two nodded obediently, watching Kisame carry Tsunade out of the banquet room.

Kisame returned to the room, tossed Tsunade onto the soft bed, took off her high heels, covered her with a blanket, and then turned and left.

Silent all night.

The next morning, as the bright sunlight streamed into the room through the window and fell on Tsunade's disheveled face, the woman groggily opened her eyes, waking up from her hangover.

My head hurts so much.

It seems I really couldn't control myself last night and accidentally drank too much.

Tsunade rubbed her forehead and sat up in bed, only then realizing that she seemed to be in... that guy's room?

She was startled and quickly checked her clothes. Finding that none of them were missing and the clothes were in disarray, she was relieved.

Just then, there was a knocking sound at the door.

"Please come in." Tsunade tidied her hair, sat on the edge of the bed, and put on her shoes.

"Lady Tsunade, you're awake. Lord Raijin instructed me to prepare breakfast for you, consisting of foods that help with hangovers."

Samui walked in from outside, carrying a plate of food.

Where is that guy?

Tsunade frowned slightly and asked.

"Oh, Lord Thor slept in his office last night. He's currently handling official business, and you can see him anytime after breakfast."

Samui put down his plate and stood respectfully to the side.

"……No."

Tsunade shook her head and said coldly.

As her mind cleared, scenes from the previous night at the dinner table flashed through her mind, causing Tsunade's expression to gradually freeze.

So embarrassing.

Not only was she drunk, but she also went on a drunken rampage, giving Samui and Azabui quite a fright. Most embarrassingly, while drunk, she took the initiative to put her arm around Kisame's shoulder, resulting in numerous intimate encounters.

That bastard was clearly the man she hated most in the world.

Could it be that the consciousness of the live slug was subtly influencing her, causing her to lower her guard in front of Kisame?

Anyway, that guy must be really smug right now.

Tsunade thought through gritted teeth, while also feeling immense regret for her drunken outburst.

"Lady Tsunade, are you not satisfied with breakfast? What would you like to eat? I will prepare something new for you right away."

Seeing Tsunade's grim expression, Samui quickly and cautiously asked...

Upon hearing this, Tsunade stood up, and as she walked towards the door, she coughed twice as if to indicate her intention to leave, and said to Samui:

"I suddenly remembered that I have some urgent matters to attend to in the village, so I need to hurry back. As for Ghost... Thor, just tell him for me to thank him for his hospitality."

After saying that, without waiting for Samui's response, she pushed open the door and hurriedly left.

Whoosh.

In front of the Raikage Building, Tsunade pushed off the ground and soared into the sky.

After she flew into the air, she looked back in the direction of the Raikage's office and found Kisame standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at her with a half-smile and waving at her.

"Damn bastard..." Tsunade cursed under her breath, then recalled the scenes from last night, her face inexplicably turning red, and she fled without looking back.

After watching Tsunade walk away, Kisame returned to his desk and picked up a newly arrived letter.

This is a letter from the Fifth Mizukage, Minato Namikaze. In the letter, Minato expressed his sincere apology for the reckless act of the Stopwater Squad infiltrating Kumogakure, and also congratulated and respected the newly appointed Raikage, Takemikaze. He also expressed his hope to resolve the misunderstanding between Konoha and Kumogakure and maintain peace between the two great ninja villages.
