Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

And so, Konoha spent two years in peace.

Two years later, Yu Ming turned 16.

In Tsunade's room, belonging to the Senju clan, Yu Ming stood up, opened the window, and sunlight streamed in.

Yu Ming took a deep breath and smiled, "The weather is nice today."

A rustling sound came from behind.

A moment later, Tsunade walked up to Yu Ming's side.

He has grown to 1.8 meters tall and looks much more mature now.

She smiled gently and said, "I really don't want to be the Hokage anymore. I wish you could be the Sixth Hokage, and then I could be your Hokage bodyguard."

At the age of 16, Yu Ming and Tsunade finally took the final step together.

It was last night.

Tsunade's complexion was rosy and her skin was very smooth.

Yu Ming used the power of the Rinnegan to refine a pill that could keep Tsunade's body in the state of a twenty-year-old even after she had exhausted her chakra.

This state can continue until she is truly exhausted and near death.

In other words, while Tsunade was still alive, her body would always look like that of someone in their twenties.

There is no longer a need to rely on the Yin Seal to maintain the body's youth.

What Tsunade just said is exactly what Tsunade feels most right now.

However, Yu Ming has no intention of becoming Hokage. Although he is currently by Tsunade's side every day and has learned a lot about how to handle affairs as Hokage.

However, he had no intention of trying it himself.

So, looking at Tsunade, Yu Ming smiled and said, "You should be the Hokage. I've never wanted to become the Hokage. I'd rather be a quiet Hokage bodyguard."

Because Tsunade had actually taken that step with Yu Ming, she became much gentler towards him.

Although she was gentle with Yu Ming before, she is even gentler now, possessing a more feminine charm and no longer being as tomboyish as before.

She probably won't do things like attending Hinata's parties just because she has a good figure.

Tsunade looked up. Now Yu Ming was a full head taller than her; Tsunade only reached Yu Ming's chin.

It really shows the cutest height difference.

It's just a pity that Tsunade isn't cute at all.

"But I want you to become the Sixth Ninja, and you have the ability to do it."

Yu Ming sighed, "Actually, I think Kakashi-sensei is more suitable. His strength has improved a lot now, and he has probably reached the threshold of Kage level. Moreover, his control over the Mangekyou Sharingan has become more and more proficient, and he can barely use the abilities of the Mangekyou Sharingan."

"Moreover, he has a good reputation in the ninja world and is highly praised among the Jonin. You should train him to become the Sixth Hokage."

To be fair, Kakashi's skill level is indeed quite good. Although he is not very strong, he is more than qualified to become the Sixth Hokage a few years later.

And he did it exceptionally well.

Tsunade sighed, "Every time I tell you, you make excuses."

Tsunade was actually a little disappointed. She had hoped that Yu Ming could become Hokage. Tsunade was the Fifth Hokage, and Yu Ming was the Sixth Hokage. That would have been wonderful.

Yu Ming glanced at Tsunade and smiled, "Alright, time to go to work."

When Yu Ming mentioned this, Tsunade immediately deflated.

She was genuinely feeling quite tired, and wished Yu Ming could take over her duties.

However, even when Yu Ming became Tsunade's bodyguard, he still read books every day.

Occasionally, I'll complete an S-rank or A-rank mission to earn some pocket money.

Because of Yu Ming, Tsunade also gave up her gambling habit.

However, when something happens, he will still take out playing cards or dice to make a prediction.

However, she hasn't changed her drinking habits at all.

Because Yu Ming doesn't dislike her when she's drunk.

In this world, drinking alcohol poses absolutely no harm to a ninja's body.

Moreover, unless Tsunade did it on purpose, she wouldn't be so drunk that she's unconscious.

Therefore, Yu Ming was not worried about Tsunade suffering any harm after getting drunk.

However, the village doesn't know about their relationship yet. Yu Ming said he would only tell her when she turned eighteen, and Tsunade doesn't seem to care.

...

Now that she and Yu Ming have taken the final step, there's no need to care about anything else.

The two of them chatted and laughed as they left the Senju clan.

Although they were joking, both Yu Ming and Tsunade were quite serious.

The villagers of Konoha on the road looked at the two with immense envy.

Tsunade is very beautiful and has a great figure. Yu Ming is tall and handsome, and he doesn't have the immaturity of a young person. On the contrary, he is very mature.

Moreover, she remains calm and composed no matter what happens, which is truly admirable.

Many villagers believe that if the two are of similar age, they must be a couple.

Unfortunately, the two were too far apart in age, and they never considered dating.

Yu Ming is Tsunade's bodyguard, so it's normal for him to spend all his time by Tsunade's side.

No one would doubt it.

However, the villagers seemed to notice something different about Tsunade today. For some reason, they felt that Tsunade was gentler.

As the two chatted and laughed, they arrived at the Hokage Building.

Upon arriving at the Hokage's room, Shizune had already been waiting there for quite some time.

Shizune breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Tsunade and Yu Ming enter.

"Lady Tsunade, you've finally arrived! If you hadn't come, the two advisors would have scolded me to death."

Every time Tsunade acts willfully, Shizune is the one who gets scolded.

The two advisors usually didn't dare to provoke Tsunade too much, because if they angered her, she would really dare to take action, unlike the Third Hokage.

Moreover, Tsunade wields far more power than she did during the Third Hokage's time.

Even the root organization was disbanded by Danzo. VII.

Chapter 186

Tsunade walked over, sat down, and calmly smiled, "These two old guys are still so nosy."

Hearing Shizune's disrespectful attitude towards the two Hokage advisors, Shizune was terrified. Even the Third Hokage wouldn't treat the two Hokage advisors like that.

However, it seems that Tsunade has never shown much respect to these two since accepting the Fifth Hokage.

However, Tsunade really did hate those two.

Yu Ming walked to his seat. There were two seats on either side of Tsunade, one for Shizune and one for Yu Ming.

Yu Ming's daily routine every 371 days, as recorded in Chapter 29, consists of reading.

Previously, it was the Hokage's library, the Senju clan's collection of books, and later, Yu Ming paid attention to all sorts of strange tales and anecdotes from the ninja world.

To be honest, Yu Ming was indeed very interested in them, and after all these years, he never got tired of them.

Just then, the door to the Hokage's office opened.

Gang "297" and Jingyin simultaneously raised their heads to look over.

Upon seeing who it was, Tsunade was taken aback for a moment, then exclaimed with delight, "Jiraiya, why are you back?"

Jiraiya said with a smile, "Tsunade, it's been three years, it's time for me to come back."

Yu Ming stood up and walked over. "Lord Jiraiya, it's been three years, and you really haven't changed much."

Upon seeing Yu Ming, Jiraiya walked over, patted Yu Ming on the shoulder, and laughed, "You rascal, in the past three years, I've heard many rumors about you in the ninja world. The fact that you suppressed the tailed beasts has greatly shocked the ninjas of the ninja world."

In the ninja world, there are people who can suppress tailed beasts, but these people are usually the Kage of the five great ninja villages or the top ninja masters in their villages.

A ninja like Yu Ming, who could completely suppress the Three-Tails single-handedly, is definitely a top-tier powerhouse in the ninja world.

However, Jiraiya wasn't surprised, because he already knew that Yu Ming was extremely powerful.

Having even mastered Sage Mode, it's not surprising that he could suppress the Tailed Beasts.

Although he wasn't sure if he could do it, there were indeed ninjas in the ninja world who could.

For example, the Akatsuki ninjas could do that.

The main reason was that three years had passed since they last met, and Jiraiya felt that Yu Ming's aura had become much deeper. Now, he couldn't even sense Yu Ming's chakra.

This shows that Yu Ming's strength is already above his.

Yu Ming didn't seem to care and laughed, "These are just empty titles. I wonder what kind of intelligence Jiraiya-sama has uncovered in these three years."

Watching Yu Ming calmly converse with Jiraiya, Tsunade stood quietly beside him.

Even amidst their banter, Jiraiya sensed something very strange about Yu Ming and Tsunade's situation.

It was as if he was watching a couple.

That's right, he now felt that Yu Ming and Tsunade looked like a couple standing together, and Tsunade stood beside Yu Ming with a smile, smiling even though she didn't say anything.

Jiraiya kept trying to convince himself that he was overthinking things.

Tsunade is so old, how could she possibly be with Yu Ming? That's ridiculous.

Forcing himself not to think about the problem, Jiraiya looked at Tsunade and said, "I've helped Naruto become much stronger in these three years. I heard you took Sakura as your disciple."

At this moment, Sakura, who was standing next to Naruto, kept looking at Yu Ming. As Yu Ming and Jiraiya were chatting and laughing, Sakura was reminded of Sasuke.

She thought to herself, "If only Sasuke were here."

Naruto, on the other hand, was very curious about whether he had caught up with Yu Ming's strength in the past three years.
