Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

After Tsunade noticed, she nudged Yu Ming with her elbow.

Yu Ming turned to look at Tsunade, frowning. "Are you done?"

Tsunade nodded and said, "I'm done. You didn't hear me, did you?"

Yu Ming naturally wouldn't admit, "No, I heard it."

Tsunade smiled and asked, "So what did I say?"

Yu Ming remained silent for a while. In fact, he knew that he was fully capable of multitasking.

He just didn't quite like this kind of story.

Chapter 140

Tsunade's face darkened. "Didn't you hear me?"

Yu Ming sighed, put down his book, and said, "I've heard it, but I feel that it's not quite right for you to treat me as your disciple."

"I will not inherit the will of your brother and your lover. Naruto can, but I cannot."

"I have never wanted to be Hokage, never, so you may be disappointed~".

Actually, Tsunade's purpose in telling those stories was to get Yu Ming to change his goal to becoming Hokage.

However, Yu Ming truly did not have such thoughts.

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I knew you would say that. I've wasted my breath. Never mind, I won't force you."

Yu Ming knew that once his strength was revealed, and he also revealed his identity as Kakashi's disciple, he would definitely be targeted by both Jiraiya and Tsunade.

The moment he revealed his Jonin-level strength, he was already being watched by the Third Hokage.

He didn't think it was a problem to be targeted by the Third Hokage, after all, Konoha was currently facing a talent shortage and there weren't many strong and talented ninjas.

Yu Ming's appearance gave the Third Generation a good option, so it's normal for them to set their sights on Yu Ming.

However, Jiraiya and Tsunade simply wanted Yu Ming to become Hokage. Jiraiya felt that Yu Ming's background was excellent, his abilities were not a problem, and his strength was very great. If he didn't become Hokage, then no one else could.

Tsunade, on the other hand, is much more complicated.

One reason is that she wants to groom Yu Ming to be her successor, just like Jiraiya did.

Another reason is that she has a strong liking for Yu Ming.

Moreover, Yu Ming is considered her disciple.

However, it seems that Yu Ming has no such idea at all.

Yu Ming smiled and said, "Then I'll continue watching~".

Before Yu Ming could finish speaking, Tsunade laughed and said, "What are you looking at? You can look later. Come out for a drink with me."

Although Yu Ming doesn't drink, he always drinks with Tsunade.

Yu Ming didn't agree, and Tsunade pulled him away.

Soon, we arrived at the izakaya we had visited before.

Yu Ming didn't find it strange; he was just sure he'd be hearing Tsunade recount her past stories again.

Sure enough, once the wine and food were served, after drinking for a while, Tsunade started talking about the past again.

They drank for a long time, until it was past midnight, and Tsunade got so drunk that she passed out on the table.

Yu Ming sighed, "It's always like this, sigh."

However, Yu Ming didn't mind the novel group 37. He originally wanted to go out and get something to eat, but it was getting late.

Seeing Tsunade slumped over the table, Yu Ming, as always, carried her back to the inn.

Looking at Tsunade lying in the room, Yu Ming could tell that she had been drinking and was probably recalling a lot of things, which was why she was feeling very upset.

However, Tsunade's life was indeed quite tragic. It's hard to say whether she was unlucky or incredibly resilient. Her younger brother died in battle, and her lover, whom she had only recently fallen for, died right before her eyes.

Looking at Tsunade's figure, Yu Ming nodded, "Indeed, no one in the ninja world can compare."

But taking a look is enough; Yu Ming dares not touch it.

Although Tsunade is drunk now, if he really does something, Yu Ming's fate will probably be terrible when she wakes up.

He couldn't possibly actually fight with Tsunade.

Just like Jiraiya, it wasn't that Jiraiya couldn't defeat Tsunade, but she still mistook him for a seriously injured person and he almost died.

However, just as Yu Ming was about to turn and leave, he was stopped by Tsunade.

The next morning, Yu Ming was holding Tsunade's necklace in his hand.

Standing on the balcony of his room, Yu Ming felt a lingering fear. "It almost went off by accident, that was terrifying."

Fortunately, I still have reason.

However, Tsunade gave the necklace to Yu Ming, which left him speechless.

"This necklace is no good. Nawaki wore it and died soon after. Kato Dan wore it and died soon after as well. It seems I shouldn't wear it either. Although I think I'm pretty tough, there are some things I'd better not touch."

At that moment, Jiraiya walked in from outside, saw the necklace in Yu Ming's hand, walked over to Yu Ming's side and asked curiously, "Is this Tsunade's necklace?"

Jiraiya knew very well what this necklace meant to Tsunade.

Yu Ming nodded.

Jiraiya sat down next to Yu Ming and asked curiously, "How did her necklace end up with you?"

This is a very precious necklace for Tsunade; she never takes it off.

Yu Ming said, "She gave it to me as a thank you gift because I helped her overcome her hemophobia."

The real reason wasn't that, but rather that it was something Tsunade gave him when he was leaving yesterday.

By then, she was no longer drunk.

Yu Ming refused for a long time, not because he didn't want it, but because the necklace was actually quite valuable; its value could buy several mountains.

········Requesting 0 flowers·······

Even ninjas need to eat, so of course he wanted such a priceless necklace.

However, this necklace was too unlucky. Of the three people who wore it, all except Tsunade died, and Naruto also almost died several times afterward.

This necklace is too eerie; Yu Ming is somewhat hesitant to accept it.

However, under Tsunade's stern gaze, Yu Ming took it.

Jiraiya was curious, but he didn't delve into it further.

Yu Ming smelled Jiraiya's scent and said speechlessly, "No wonder you can't catch up with Lady Tsunade. You've been spending all these days in brothels, haven't you?"

This flavor is clearly from that kind of place.

Jiraiya laughed and said, "I went there to gather intelligence; those are the places where intelligence is actually gathered."

Yu Ming agreed with this point, although he knew that Jiraiya's purpose was not simply to gather intelligence.

.. ...... .......

"Lord Jiraiya, what exactly is the purpose of Akatsuki that you mentioned?"

Actually, Jiraiya doesn't know this yet.

"It's still unclear. They seem to have become much more restrained lately, but instead they've been collecting all sorts of ninjutsu. I have a feeling they're up to something."

Yu Ming chuckled, "Isn't this obvious? But if every ninja in Akatsuki truly possesses the strength of an elite Jonin or higher, then the power of this organization is indeed quite terrifying."

"Moreover, they are a mercenary organization, so some forces must have paid them to complete the mission."

Jiraiya nodded. "Yes, that's true. Members of this organization also take on missions."

Yu Ming was actually quite curious about Akatsuki, especially about the secret techniques of the ninjas in the organization. He was very interested in them.

He now studies ninjutsu purely out of interest.

After chatting with Jiraiya for a few minutes, he went out again.

Jiraiya, with a lewd smile on his face, was telling Yu Ming how alluring the women in the brothels were.

Yu Ming was speechless.

Although he wasn't a child anymore, he still felt a little embarrassed that Jiraiya had talked about those kinds of things so openly with him.

Jiraiya's reasoning was similar to that of the Third Hokage back then.

The third generation was also a scoundrel; he was quite skilled at using that telescope to spy on people.

Jiraiya always wanted to pursue Tsunade, but unfortunately, every time at the most crucial moment, someone else beat him to it. 7.

Chapter 141

Not long after Jiraiya left, Yu Ming, who was holding the necklace and looking at it in the sunlight, suddenly sensed Tsunade's presence.

Looking at Tsunade, who stood calmly in front of him, Yu Ming smiled slightly and said, "You got up so early?"

"I thought I wouldn't get up until noon."

Setting down the necklace, Yu Ming looked at Tsunade and said.

Tsunade stood calmly in front of Yu Ming, but this calmness was somewhat eerie. Yu Ming was also calm, showing no embarrassment whatsoever.

After a long while, Tsunade took the necklace from Yu Ming's hand, intending to put it around his neck.

Yu Ming turned his head away and smiled, "I'd rather not. I don't think I can control it."

Tsunade paused for a moment, then sat down opposite Yu Ming and placed the necklace back into his hand.

Tsunade hasn't said a word since just now, which is very strange.

However, Yu Ming did not sense anything strange at all.

It appeared quite calm, like "267".

However, while he appeared to be acting that way on the surface, he was actually quite panicked inside.

Although yesterday's events are over, Yu Ming still remembers them vividly.

It's estimated that in all her years, Tsunade has never been treated like this before, not even by Kato Dan.

Tsunade sat opposite Yu Ming, watching him quietly for a long time. After a while, Yu Ming couldn't stand her gaze anymore.
