Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

The Fifth Tsunade was completely stunned. "We've traveled back decades!!"

Yu Ming nodded. He knew that Tsunade would not believe him if he told her, since no one in the ninja world could travel back in time now.

Tsunade was eager to know what Yu Ming had done when he went back in time.

Yu Ming continued, "That guy traveled back several decades and occupied the ancient Loulan Kingdom, which was still intact. He also used the dragon vein to create many war puppets, including a powerful war puppet with destructive power comparable to the Nine-Tailed Fox."

"Fortunately, I killed him."

"I also encountered the Fourth Hokage's team, who were on their way to Loulan to complete a mission, and I fought with them."

Tsunade paused for a moment, as if in her memory, Minato Namikaze had indeed gone to the ancient kingdom of Loulan to carry out a mission.

At that time, it seemed that an extremely terrible battle had taken place in Loulan, which almost destroyed the entire city.

Tsunade looked at Yu Ming and said with some surprise, "That person is you?"

Yu Ming nodded. "Yes, it should be me."

Tsunade was somewhat incredulous. "It's actually possible to travel back to the past, but if the Dragon Vein continues to exist, won't more people use it to travel back in time and do things that alter history?"

Yu Ming had already thought about this, and waved his hand, saying, "No, because I sealed the Dragon Vein. The Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God Seal can still be opened, but I used a stronger seal, and it is now completely impossible to open."

Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Ming looked at Tsunade and laughed, "I never thought so before, but after fighting the Fourth Hokage, I found that my speed is actually above his."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Yu Ming, and seeing how happy he was, she said, "Isn't it normal that you're stronger than the Fourth Hokage? Even my grandfather isn't your match now."

"But why doesn't the Fourth Hokage have any memories of you?"

"Because I will erase the memories of those who saw me, so as not to affect what will happen later."

"If they knew that a ninja as powerful as me would emerge in Konoha in the future, it would be questionable whether I would even be born."

Tsunade nodded. Yu Ming was indeed right. If people knew that a strong person like Yu Ming would emerge in Konoha in the future, someone would definitely try to assassinate Yu Ming's parents.

After all, Yu Ming didn't say a word decades ago.

After saying that, Yu Ming sighed, "I was in a hurry to leave back then and didn't go to Konoha to see you when you were in your thirties. I wonder what would have happened if I had pursued you when you were in your thirties."

Tsunade smiled wryly and said, "Then I guess I won't like you."

Tsunade felt that if Yu Ming had pursued her more than ten years earlier, he would have no chance at all now.

Yu Ming laughed and said, "So I can say that my abilities are not bad."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Yu Ming, but still said, "The Fire Temple incident is indeed very strange. Those people seem to want to do something with the corpses of the Twelve Ninja Warriors, and it seems to be targeting Konoha."

"I sensed the Nine-Tails' chakra in Sora, and it seems that the Nine-Tails' chakra is also sealed in Sora."

This is not surprising, after all, Kinkaku and Ginkaku were able to enter Tailed Beast Mode because they ate the flesh of the Nine-Tails.

Yu Ming nodded and said, "That guy does have the Nine-Tails' chakra sealed on him, but it's definitely not the real Nine-Tails. It's just the chakra that the Nine-Tails had released that was collected by someone."

Even when the chakra of a tailed beast is separated, it still carries its own consciousness. However, most of the chakra dissipates into the air and then transforms back into natural energy, which cannot be preserved for long.

Moreover, preserving the Nine-Tails' chakra is indeed extremely difficult.

The Nine-Tails' chakra must have been nurtured for a long time before being sealed inside Sora from a young age.

Such technology does exist in the ninja world, but it is not very mature.

Therefore, the failure rate is very high.

Chapter 276 Sakura seems to have a crush on you

Tsunade thought about it for a long time but still couldn't understand why someone would seal the Nine-Tails' chakra in Sora's body.

And who did it is also very important.

When Sora came out of the Hokage's office, he looked at Naruto curiously and asked, "Who was that guy who was in there just now? Why did he suddenly appear there?"

Naruto thought for a moment and said, "That's Yu Ming. You should know him, right? He's quite famous in the ninja world, and he's very strong, extremely strong, so you absolutely mustn't mess with him."

Kong pouted. "So he's Yu Ming. He's quite famous, but when I saw him just now, he was about my age and not that strong."

Hearing this, Naruto was speechless. "Can you please not judge a book by its cover? What does his strength have to do with his age? He's the same age as us, but it's true that he's much stronger than us. You'd better not think that he's suitable for someone at your level, or you'll suffer the consequences."

Kong chuckled.

no answer.

Naruto was also a bit troubled by Sora's attitude.

This guy doesn't seem to be listening at all.

However, Naruto thought to himself, "I really need to keep a close eye on this guy during this period of time; he's too much of a troublemaker."

"He doesn't seem to care about Yu Ming yet. If he provokes Yu Ming, this guy will definitely get a beating."

Sakura, who was walking next to Naruto, looked at Sora and said, "You'd better be careful. He could easily kill you with one hand. I'm not kidding."

Sora glanced at Sakura, clenched his fist, and said, "You talk a big game, but you're only about my age."

Sakura chuckled, realizing she didn't want to communicate with Sora anymore after seeing his attitude.

It's fine with other people, but when it comes to Yu Ming, Sakura doesn't have a good impression of Sora.

She herself has not realized that she is becoming more and more concerned about Yu Ming's affairs, which seems to have started after the incident in Sunagakure.

Her mindset has completely changed.

Seeing Sasuke wasn't as exciting as I'd imagined, though I was still excited nonetheless.

However, the emotional response was very different from what Sakura had anticipated.

Moreover, she often mentioned Yu Ming during this period without even realizing it herself.

But Naruto, Yamato, and Sai knew all about it.

Yu Ming and Tsunade discussed for a long time in the Hokage's office, but in the end they did not come up with any reliable guesses.

Tsunade leaned back in her chair and sighed, "Sigh, now we can only wait for them to make their move. It's so frustrating."

Although Yu Ming was well aware of the truth, he did not reveal it.

With Yu Ming around, she naturally wasn't worried about any major problems arising in Konoha, but being in such a passive position still made her quite unhappy.

But so far, they haven't obtained any meaningful intelligence.

Yu Ming stood behind her and smiled. "So be it if we're passive. In any case, they will definitely make a move, and I suspect they'll most likely target Konoha. Then we'll know what they're up to."

Tsunade sighed. Given her personality, being too passive really annoyed her.

After Tsunade sighed, she turned her chair towards Yu Ming, who was standing by the window. "When we went to find Sasuke this time, Yamato told us some things about Sakura."

Yu Ming paused for a moment, then turned to look at Tsunade.

Tsunade leaned back in her chair, crossed her legs, and crossed her arms, looking at Yu Ming with a meaningful expression. "He said that Sakura often mentioned you along the way, and it was the same when we went to the Fire Temple this time. She often mentioned you, and rarely even mentioned Sasuke, but when she did mention you, she always seemed very happy."

"What exactly did you do to her?"

Tsunade wasn't jealous; a woman her age couldn't be that childish.

It's not that Tsunade dislikes Yu Ming, but rather that she understands Yu Ming very well. She knows that nothing could happen to Yu Ming, and she has complete trust in him.

Tsunade was just curious, since Sakura hadn't paid much attention to Yu Ming in the previous three years.

Why is she so concerned about this now?

Very strange.

Yu Ming remained calm, looking at Tsunade and saying, "What did I do? I didn't do anything, and what's wrong with bringing me up?"

Tsunade stood up, stood in front of Yu Ming, looked up at him and said, "What do you think happened?"

Looking at Tsunade so close to him, with her delicate and fair face, Yu Ming smiled and said, "You mean, Sakura has feelings for me?"

Tsunade nodded.

Yu Ming waved his hand and leaned against the windowsill. "What are you talking about? She likes Sasuke. The reason she brought me up is probably because she's been hearing a lot about me lately. Don't be so sensitive."

Tsunade stepped forward and leaned against Yu Ming, smiling as she said, "I don't want to be sensitive, and I'm not worried that she'll like you. I'm just worried that she'll be hurt, since she is, after all, my disciple."

"I know you best. If she likes you and it ends in tragedy, that would be a bit too much."

Yu Ming looked at Tsunade, who was already on his body, with a wry smile. "Why aren't you worried about me at all?"

·········Requesting flowers··········

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Yu Ming. "Your heart is as hard as steel. Why should I worry about you?"

Yu Ming felt somewhat helpless. Tsunade trusted him a lot, which was a good thing, but in these kinds of situations, she never cared whether Yu Ming would get hurt. On the contrary, she cared whether the other person would get hurt.

Yu Ming didn't know whether to be happy or to cry.

His woman never worried about him in these matters, but she was always concerned about him.

However, it was also because Tsunade had great confidence in Yu Ming and believed in Yu Ming's feelings for her.

Otherwise, if it were someone else, they would have exploded long ago.

Yu Ming looked at Tsunade leaning against him and wrapped his arms around her back.

He laughed and said, "You're probably overthinking it. You should understand Sakura's obsession with Sasuke. Even if something like that really happened, it's okay. Girls her age will forget about it in a few days."

...

Yu Ming didn't have anything to do with Xiao Ying, really nothing, and he usually kept his distance from her.

Yu Ming always felt that he had a good grasp of the right measure.

I never expected that Sakura would have feelings for me.

However, Yu Ming didn't care. He thought that Sakura was just having a passing fancy.

After a while, you won't feel that way anymore.

Tsunade replied, "Do you think Sakura is that kind of person? If that girl falls for someone, she'll probably have a hard time giving up. If you end up with both master and disciple liking the same man, that would be incredibly embarrassing."

Yu Ming had a headache. Looking at Tsunade's fantasies, he said, "What are you thinking? This kind of thing can't possibly happen. If it did, I would have cut it off immediately."

Actually, with Tsunade already there, Yu Ming is already enough.

After all, Tsunade possesses all the virtues of women, and he truly has no romantic feelings for other women.

Moreover, his hobbies include cultivation, reading, or researching strange and unusual things.
