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

Shirokumo Aoba then took the two to Ichiraku Ramen, which was ranked number one on the Konoha Must-Eat List.

Before he knew it, it had become a habit for him, and he would go there every time.

After lunch, the three of them went straight to the Hokage Building.

Then they discovered that Tsunade still looked like she had just woken up.

"Teacher, you wouldn't... "

You slept all morning, didn't you?

Shirokumo Aoba still gave Tsunade some face and didn't say it outright.

"Shizune and Mikoto both took leave because of you, which made me incredibly busy this morning. I had just taken a nap when you woke me up again, you little brat."

Tsunade glared at him, then continued spouting nonsense without batting an eye.

Shirokumo Aoba could tell at a glance that Tsunade was talking nonsense, but Sai and Sara, who didn't know much about Tsunade's personality, were different.

Sai bowed slightly to Tsunade, "I'm so sorry, Hokage-sama, we have disturbed you without permission."

Loulan is just a small border country in a corner of the Land of Wind, so there is nothing wrong with calling the Hokage of the five great ninja villages "sir".

Tsunade hadn't expected Loulan to be so polite. She had only wanted to tease the brat after seeing the look in Baiyun Qingye's eyes.

"Ahem, it's alright, please sit down. Queen Sai has come from afar. I wonder if my disciple's hospitality this morning satisfied you?"

Tsunade also stood up from her seat and sat down on the sofa with Sai and Sara.

Sai glanced at Baiyun Qingye with amusement and said with a smile, "Of course I'm satisfied. I've also learned a lot about the local customs and culture of Konoha this morning."

Shirokumo Aoba originally wanted to sit down next to Tsunade, but was glared at by her.

He immediately understood what it meant and went to the side to prepare tea.

There was no other way; Jingyin had taken leave because of him, so he had to do the other person's work.

"I heard back in Loulan that the Hokage was the number one female ninja in the ninja world. Seeing her today, I can confirm that she truly lives up to her reputation."

Sai's words came from the bottom of her heart, after all, she had indeed seen someone who could be called the number one in the ninja world.

"It's all just empty titles. I've long wanted to have a proper chat with Queen Sai. I've already missed lunch, so why don't we stay for a drink tonight?"

Tsunade also spoke very magnanimously.

Sai was taken aback by Tsunade's directness, but she quickly recovered and said with a smile, "Of course, no problem. But Lady Tsunade, you don't need to be so polite. Just call me Sai."

"In that case, you can just call me by my name, Sai."

"No problem, Lady Tsunade."

"..."

Baiyun Qingye seems to sense a mutual respect and appreciation between the two.

Chapter 571 Two People Who Appreciate Each Other

"?"

Baiyun Qingye returned with the tea, looking at the two exchanging polite words with great confusion.

In the past, when Tsunade saw him bring other girls home, although she didn't show it on the surface, she would secretly show the appropriate jealousy.

Why did he show so little jealousy when facing Sai this time?

Instead, there was a sense of mutual appreciation and regret for not having met sooner.

Could it be because Sai also practiced the Yin Seal?

Or perhaps both of them are leaders who are eager to retire?

Or is it because the two are, in some sense, of the same generation?

Just as Shirokumo Aoba had guessed in the end.

That's exactly what Tsunade thought.

Whether it's Shizune, Konan, or even Mikoto Uchiha, they can only be considered her juniors.

When Tsunade was with them, it was as if they were constantly reminding her of her age.

But it's different for Sai; she was already a mother twenty years ago.

If you really want to count, the two are roughly of the same generation.

Therefore, when Tsunade saw the other party, she naturally no longer had that feeling, and her impression of him improved considerably.

Sai's thoughts were similar to Tsunade's.

She initially thought she was so much older than Bai Yunqingye that she didn't dare to express her thoughts.

It wasn't until she heard that this guy not only had several girlfriends, but also one who was almost forty years older than him, that she made a decision in her heart.

After another twenty years of reflection, she finally made up her mind.

Therefore, she was filled with gratitude for both the Yin Seal and the other party's existence.

In short, the two got along very well, so much so that neither Shirakumo Aoba nor Sara, who were sitting to the side, could find a chance to interject.

Sarah was already getting sleepy, her little head nodding off, looking absolutely adorable.

"Sarah seems a little sleepy. Shall I take her back to rest for a bit?"

Baiyun Qingye looked at Sara's appearance and made a suggestion.

Sarah was startled by his words and nodded hastily.

Sai glanced at the time on the wall clock and realized, "It really is time for Sarah's usual afternoon nap."

"In that case, Aoba, you can take this girl back first," Tsunade said to Shirokumo Aoba, then added, "But remember to come back before work this afternoon."

"what?"

"Huh what?"

Tsunade's face suddenly hardened, and she reminded her with displeasure, "Have you forgotten who took leave for Shizune and Mikoto?"

"Ok."

Baiyun Qingye then remembered that there was such a thing.

Even if he doesn't come to help in the afternoon, he'll probably be dragged around Konoha by Sara.

Coming to the office to help Tsunade with her work is essentially like going on a date with her.

There is not much difference between the two for Shirokumo Aoba.

In fact, it's more relaxing to be in the office with Tsunade, and there are quite a few perks.

After all, people say that when you're well-fed and warm, you think about...

After getting a good night's sleep, Tsunade is always more energetic, and then she goes back to sleep.

As Shirokumo Aoba led Sara away, Tsunade and Sai started chatting again.

This time, however, the topic has shifted to adult content.

"Teacher, I need to go to the restroom."

As soon as she left the office, Sarah stopped in her tracks, pulling on Baiyun Qingye's hand.

"...Then I'll take you to the public restroom."

"Ah."

Shirokumo Aoba didn't choose to go back to her office, since the public restroom in the Hokage Building wasn't far away anyway.

When they found the bathroom, Sarah didn't go in; instead, she turned around and hugged him.

"Teacher... I don't think anyone will come here now, right?"

"Ok?"

Bai Yun Qingye was taken aback by what Sarah said, not understanding what she meant.

He just felt that the girl's face buried in his chest was burning hot.

"Well!"

Sarah puffed out her cheeks and looked up at Baiyun Qingye with a pitiful expression.

"Has the teacher forgotten what he promised me?"

Baiyun and Qingye were taken aback, but then they immediately understood.

He cupped Sarah's face in his hands with a hint of helplessness and asked earnestly, "Are you sure you want to do this here? A girl's first kiss is very important."

Baiyun Qingye felt as if she were holding a hot stove, and it was burning hot to the touch.

Sarah nodded firmly, though she was shy.

She didn't want to wait any longer. Although she really wanted to find the right time and place, wouldn't it be better to kiss sooner and enjoy it sooner?

Only what you have in your hands is truly yours.

"OK then."

Bai Yunqingye didn't hesitate any longer. He wasn't one to dawdle, and once he made a decision, he wouldn't hesitate.

He lowered his head and pressed himself against it.

Warm breaths sprayed onto each other's faces.

Although Sarah was very proactive, her movements were quite clumsy.

She didn't even know where to put her hands, sometimes hugging his waist, sometimes wrapping her arms around his neck.

Fortunately, Baiyun Qingye guided her well, which gave her a good experience.

There were no embarrassing situations where teeth hit the mouth or other parts of the mouth.

When the two parted, Sarah's pretty and lovely face was tinged with a vibrant color, just like her long hair, and her beautiful eyes were dreamy.

She felt as if all her strength had been drained, and collapsed into Baiyun Qingye's arms.

"how do you feel?"
