Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

The Hyuga clan was able to establish itself in Konoha Village by being law-abiding and obedient.

Whoever wins, I'll help them.

To put it nicely, they are law-abiding citizens; to put it bluntly, they are opportunists.

The winners in Konoha now are naturally the Hokage lineage led by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

His previous words to Shirakumo Hayama actually went against the principles of the Hyuga clan.

However, now that Shirokumo Aoba has become a direct descendant of the Hokage, those words might actually be seen as a positive statement.

Hiashi Hyuga glanced at Hinata, who was munching on rice, and his lips twitched involuntarily. His previously shrewd and calculating persona instantly crumbled.

I couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

His daughter is growing up to be increasingly distorted.

-

early morning.

Baiyun Qingye walked out of her house with dark circles under her eyes.

Although he appeared calm while talking to Tsunade, he suddenly became excited when he reflected on it afterwards.

It kept him from sleeping well all night.

However, although he didn't sleep well, it didn't affect him much; chakra is such a magical thing.

Baiyun Qingye walked briskly and lightly towards the Senju ancestral home, her mood cheerful.

But after walking for a while, he had to stop.

He had forgotten that if he wanted to get from his house to the Senju family ancestral home, he would have to pass by the Ino family's flower shop.

At this moment, Ino, who was still a tiny little girl, was obediently carrying all kinds of colorful flowers outside the store.

To his surprise, Sakura was also there, helping Ino move the flowers.

Amidst the profusion of flowers, glimpses of gold and pink shone through, and the smiles on their faces were as radiant as the flowers themselves.

Having already arrived here, Bai Yun Qingye naturally wouldn't pretend not to see her and walked straight over.

The two people who were arranging the flower clusters heard footsteps and instinctively looked in the direction from which the sound came.

"Huh?" ×2

The two immediately forgot about moving the flowers and ran towards Baiyun Qingye with big smiles on their faces.

"Aoba!"

"Ino, Sakura, good morning."

Bai Yun Qingye greeted the two people who ran over with a smile.

Ino arrived first.

"Qingye, did you come to see me today? Is your training over? Can we play together today?"

Ino rattled off all her thoughts in one breath, leaving Shirakumo Aoba unsure of which to reply to.

Sakura, who was a step behind, also wanted to ask, but Ino had already asked all the questions she wanted to ask, so she could only pout slightly and stand quietly to the side waiting for Aoba's answer.

At the same time, she felt a little wronged, because Shirokumo Aoba came to Ino's place today, and if she hadn't come to help, she might not have even seen him.

On the contrary, Shirokumo Aoba is currently looking at Sakura.

He also remembered that in the original work, it should have been Sakura who was taken in as a disciple by Tsunade, so he felt like he had stolen the spot.

However, Sakura's talent is quite good. Shizune followed Tsunade for so many years and only learned a little bit of medical ninjutsu, while Sakura has only studied for a few years and has almost learned everything Tsunade has to offer.

If there's a chance, Tsunade could teach Sakura. If Tsunade finds it too troublesome, he could teach her instead. She already has Tenten as a student, so having another one wouldn't be a problem.

Moreover, he suddenly realized that there was still a certain connection between the master and disciple.

He also remembered that Sakura seemed to have an alternate personality, and could even break Ino's Mind Transfer Jutsu.

If I had the chance to learn a spirit transformation technique in the future, wouldn't I be invincible? I could punch the physical body and sever the soul with my heart!

"Aoba? Aoba!"

Just as Shirokumo Aoba was watching Sakura's wild and whimsical thoughts, a golden light suddenly blocked his view.

What came into view was Ino's delicate little face, which looked somewhat dissatisfied and aggrieved.

"Ino, what's wrong?"

"Didn't you come to see me? Why are you staring at Sakura and not answering my questions?!"

Shirokumo Aoba looked at Ino, who seemed a little angry. Ino had soft, short, golden hair, a slightly flushed face, and fair skin, radiating youth and vitality.

It's just that right now it looks like an angry golden kitten, its fur standing on end.

Shirokumo Aoba quickly reached out and smoothed Ino's hair, becoming as docile as a real kitten.

Touching someone's head still works; even if someone touches someone's head, the villagers won't get a red head.

He glanced at Sakura, whose face was already flushed and who was hiding behind Ino, and seeing that there was no other problem, he spoke.

"I was actually thinking about something, but I just happened to be passing by today and saw you, so I came over to say hello."

Chapter 39 Tsunade's Reward

"Huh? Just passing by?"

Ino's previously docile expression immediately turned dejected.

"So, Aoba, where are you going now?"

Aoba pulled both girls close to him, and because they were so close, Ino and Sakura blushed slightly.

"I was accepted as a disciple by Lady Tsunade yesterday, and now I'm going to study under her."

"Oh, it's Lady Tsunade... Lady Tsunade!"

The two, who were initially shy, suddenly raised their voices, immediately attracting the attention of passersby who were browsing the morning market.

Bai Yunqingye quickly pulled the two of them back to calm them down.

Ino and Sakura are already adoring her, and Tsunade's reputation among female ninjas is no less than that of the Hokage.

She is the common idol of all female ninjas in Konoha.

Female ninjas can hold up half the sky too.

"Aoba, have you really been accepted as a disciple by Lady Tsunade?"

"That's Lady Tsunade, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha!"

Ino and Sakura's eyes sparkled, bright and clear, with a hint of admiration in them.

Being accepted as a disciple by Tsunade demonstrates that Shirakumo Aoba's ninja talent must be extremely high.

No wonder he was the boy they had their eye on; at this moment, they were also proud of him.

Baiyun Qingye nodded, confirming the information.

"I'm going to study under her now."

"Then...can we go with you to take a look?"

Sakura leaned closer, her face flushing even more, partly from excitement, and partly from taking the opportunity to get even closer to Shirokumo Aoba, which made her slightly shy.

Ino was also full of anticipation, seemingly unaware that Sakura's face was almost pressed against Shirakumo Aoba's.

Baiyun Qingye pinched Xiaoying's chubby little face.

He thought about it for a moment. After all, it was Tsunade's house, and it would be impolite to bring people over without permission.

"Let's skip it today. I'll talk to Lady Tsunade later. If it's possible, I'll take you all with me tomorrow."

"No...no problem..."

Sakura blushed and shrank back.

"OK then."

Although Ino was somewhat disappointed, she didn't make things difficult for Shirakumo Aoba and continued speaking.

"Then we won't keep you any longer, Aoba, you should go now."

"Then I'll be going now, I'll come find you again tomorrow."

Shirakumo Aoba waved to Ino and Sakura before turning and leaving.

……

"Sakura, you weren't behaving yourself just now!"

"what?"

Sakura turned her head and saw Ino looking at her with an unfriendly expression.

It seems she wasn't entirely unaware of Sakura's subtle actions.

"Ino, I was wrong!"

Sakura hurriedly begged for mercy, but Ino clearly had no intention of letting her off so easily.

Collapse, retreat, and sell off.

Sakura saw Ino rushing towards her, bent down to dodge Ino's outstretched hands, and started running down the street.

"Hmph, Sakura, you're not getting away!"

Ino immediately chased after them, and the two little girls, one in gold and one in pink, started playing around in front of the flower shop.

On the second floor of the flower shop, Yamanaka Inoichi, who had been watching the whole thing from the sidelines, couldn't help but sigh.

He already knew that Shirokumo Aoba had been taken in as a disciple by Tsunade.

Otherwise, when the three kids were gathered together earlier, he would have gone down and warned that kid not to go too far.

The ancestral home of Senju is not located in the center of the village, but rather on the outer side.
