Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

It's no wonder Danzo was overthinking things; Renya's behavior was just too unusual.

The impact of inviting him out shopping was no less than Danzo saying he didn't want to be Hokage.

……

The barrage of questions made Lian Ye's face darken instantly. How could this guy have so many murals?

But he patiently answered each question: "I was just shopping, and there were other people with me. I'm not lying to you."

If Danzo continues to spout nonsense, don't blame him for resorting to violence.

I finally managed to get them to go out and have some fun, and this is the result!

Whether he noticed Renya's expression or had truly finished asking questions, Danzo did not ask any more this time.

"Okay, I'll go shopping with you."

As long as Lian Ye doesn't have any improper thoughts about him and doesn't use him as a guinea pig for experiments, it's fine.

Seeing that Danzo was not going to say anything more, Renya led him to the homes of the other people.

When Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others learned that Renya had invited them out shopping, their expressions were exactly the same as Danzo's at the time.

That's absolutely incredible!

……

Konoha Village Commercial Street.

After the war, the village became even more lively, with shops lining both sides of the street and vendors calling out their wares.

Pedestrians came and went, children played and frolicked among the crowd, and the sweet aroma of roasted dumplings and tricolor meatballs wafted in the air.

"It really brings back memories..." Uchiha Kagami murmured, his gaze falling on a newly opened dessert shop. "When was the last time I strolled around so leisurely?"

A new meatball shop has opened here; I definitely have to try it out.

"It's been at least two years, hasn't it?" Mitokado Homura pushed up his glasses. "I haven't been here since the war started."

As Renya smelled the sweet aroma in the air, her gaze unconsciously fell on the newly opened dumpling shop, but she quickly looked away, afraid that Danzo next to her would notice.

He doesn't like sweets, he just thought they smelled delicious and was curious about what kind of desserts they were selling.

Well, yes, that’s it!

"A new shop just opened over there!" Koharu from the dormitory pointed to the dessert shop, her eyes lighting up. "It smells so good, let's go try it."

"Haha, that's exactly what I was thinking!" Uchiha Kagami chimed in.

“Let’s go take a look then.” Hiruzen Sarutobi led the way towards the dessert shop.

The others quickly followed, all eager to try the newly opened dessert shop.

Renya and Danzo walked at the back of the group.

He glanced at the group of people in front of him, curled his lip in disdain, and said to Danzo.

"Only children like sweets. You agree, Danzo."

Danzo: "..."

The scene of Nara Honya sending him the three-colored dumplings flashed through his mind.

If I remember correctly, Lianye ate even faster than him.

Danzo looked at Renya with a hint of disdain.

Lian Ye immediately bristled upon seeing this.

"Danzo, what kind of look is that?!"

Chapter 219 Tsunade Can Eat a Lot

A new dessert shop has opened in Konoha's commercial district. The glass window is filled with colorful wagashi (Japanese sweets), tricolor dumplings, red bean soup, and various adorable cakes.

A long queue formed in front of the shop, mostly young girls and children, and a sweet fragrance filled the air.

Uchiha Kagami was the first to arrive at the front of the line, and subconsciously swallowed. "They said the matcha daifuku here is super delicious!"

Koharu excitedly leaned closer: "I heard they also have limited edition cherry blossom water mochi!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Homura Mitokado stood behind Koharu, their eyes fixed on the display case at the front, though they didn't speak.

These colorful desserts look so appetizing!

On their way here, they heard many people praising the desserts at this shop, and they couldn't wait to try them.

Lianye listened intently to Jing and Xiaochun's conversation; it was the first time he had ever heard of such a long dessert name.

When it's his turn, he'll definitely order a serving to try it.

Even if you think that way inside, you can't show it on your face.

"Sweets? Only children would be interested in that kind of thing, right?" He crossed his arms, looking helpless.

I didn't want to eat it myself; I just came with them to try it out.

Yes, it is like that.

Danzo glanced at him and said slowly, "Is that so? Then you can wait outside."

He had long suspected that Lian Ye liked sweets, but he just didn't want to admit it.

Lian Ye: "..."

He stared at Danzo with resentment in his eyes, the threat in them unmistakable.

Why does this guy always undermine himself?

It seems like they haven't learned their lesson in a long time, and their skin is getting increasingly itchy.

If he dares to come and sabotage us again, I won't hesitate to let him experience the power of the Sharingan's genjutsu.

Danzo and Renya locked eyes with a dangerous gaze, their lips twitching slightly, and Danzo wisely refrained from speaking.

This arrogant guy got angry after only saying a couple of words.

In fact, Renya was not interested in sweets at first, until Hashirama Senju bought him two skewers of three-colored dumplings, after which he completely fell in love with the sweet taste.

And you know what? Eating sweets really can make people happy.

From then on, Lianye's craving for sweets became uncontrollable...

----

Inside the dessert shop.

The six people sat around a table and each ordered their favorite dessert.

There were three plates of dumplings in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi. He quickly picked them up with his chopsticks and stuffed them into his mouth.

Xiaochun, who was turning over in her dorm, gracefully scooped up some red bean soup and sipped it slowly.

Uchiha Kagami picked up the fruit cake, took a bite, and immediately showed a satisfied expression.

These foods are simply delicious for people who love desserts!

It was worth the long wait they had in line.

Danzo Shimura calmly sipped his black tea, seemingly oblivious to the desserts in front of him, with an expression that said, "I'm just here to keep you company."

Unlike the proud and aloof Lian Ye, he genuinely dislikes sweets.

However, I don't completely abstain from food; I still eat a little bit occasionally.

……

Lian Ye sat on the far side, her face empty, but she would occasionally glance at the food the others were eating.

He was trying to figure out what excuse he could use to order food without arousing suspicion from the others.

These guys are really something, they don't even ask themselves a question.

"Renya-kun, are you really not going to eat?" Koharu asked curiously.

Everyone was eating, but Lianye was the only one who hadn't ordered any food, which wasn't quite right.

"Hmm, Renye, try it, it tastes really good!" Uchiha Kagami placed a cake in front of him, then continued to enjoy the fruit cake in his hand.

He loves sweets the most.

Lian Ye gazed at the matcha cake in front of her, her Adam's apple bobbing slightly. "Then I'll reluctantly give it a try and see how it tastes."

The matcha cake in front of me is decorated with red beans and white jade dumplings.

He originally wanted to refuse, but the cake looked too good.

In the end, I couldn't resist...

He picked up the small fork, first gently scraped off a little cream, and slowly put it into his mouth.

(...So sweet.)

Lian Ye's pupils dilated slightly as her tongue touched the slightly bitter aroma, which was then enveloped by a rich sweetness.

He subconsciously scooped out another small piece, this time with a red bean attached to the soft cake base.

(...Damn, it's so delicious.)

If it weren't for the fact that several people were present and he needed to consider his image, he would have finished eating long ago.

Danzo's gaze lingered on Renya, a fleeting hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

She clearly loves sweets, but she pretends to be uninterested.

This guy is really stubborn!

"Renya-kun, you seem to really enjoy eating." Koharu Utatane said with a smile.

The way Renya-kun eats is so cute, it's completely different from how he usually does.

Lian Ye's hand froze in mid-air, a large piece of cake still stuck in her fork.

At the same time, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others all looked over.

"Haha, Renya, your ears are all red." Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Mitokado Homura gently pushed up his glasses. "From what I've observed, the Uchiha clan members generally have a sweet tooth."

There were quite a few Uchiha clan children in the line that just stood there buying sweets.

Lian Ye immediately put on a stern face: "I was just objectively evaluating the taste; the cake tastes a bit bland."

The claim that the Uchiha clan likes sweets is utter nonsense!

And he is a Senju, not an Uchiha!

"Renya-kun, would you like to try my strawberry daifuku? It's super sweet~" Uchiha Kagami approached, holding a dessert.

Looking at the dessert in the mirror, Lian Ye forced herself to remain calm and said, "Since you strongly recommend it, I'll reluctantly give it a try."

The mirror was delivered so warmly, we can't let them feel disappointed, can we?

……

five minutes later--

Three empty plates were piled up in front of Lianye, filled with matcha cake, daifuku, tricolor dumplings, and other desserts, all of which he devoured by himself.

The group stared wide-eyed at Lian Ye, looking as if they'd seen a ghost. This guy had eaten enough for three people!

Danzo Shimura raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't it said that only children eat sweets?"

"These past two years on the battlefield have been too tough; I need some sweets to balance it out." Lian Ye elegantly wiped the corner of her mouth.

The desserts at this shop were so delicious that I ate them all without realizing it.

Fortunately, he had already thought of a response.

Everyone: "..."

Goodness, that's an excuse that's hard to refute.

"I also need to bring some back for Tsunade," Renye said to the others. "You know... children like sweets."

"What would you like, sir?" the shop assistant asked with a smile as she approached.
