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

Ever since Mito learned of his gambling addiction, he stopped giving him pocket money and could only trick Tsunade into giving him some money as initial gambling funds.

He was on fire today, not losing a single game to Tsunade.

You can definitely win big at the casino at night...

Thinking of this, Hashirama couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Although Tsunade didn't know why her grandfather was laughing, she still laughed along.

As soon as Lian Ye entered the courtyard, she saw a big boy and a little boy laughing loudly.

"Uncle Hashirama, what's making you so happy?"

Upon hearing this, Hashirama stopped laughing. "Renya's here."

Tsunade blinked her big, watery eyes and unconsciously swallowed.

"Uncle Lianye, are you cooking for me again?"

Lian Ye's lips twitched. Did this gluttonous girl really think of him as a cook?

Ever since Tsunade tasted his cooking, she always made sure to ask him to cook a meal before she could leave whenever she came to visit...

Hashirama looked at Renya with anticipation, "Renya, are you really going to cook for us, grandfather and grandson?"

Under the gaze of two pitiful eyes, Lian Ye had no choice but to agree.

When Lian Ye agreed, the grandfather and grandson excitedly high-fived each other.

"Yay, I get to taste Uncle Lianye's cooking again!"

"Haha, Lianye, thank you for your hard work tonight."

Seeing this, Lianye couldn't help but think to herself:

Wasn't he here to check on Hashirama's health?

How did I end up as a chef all of a sudden?!

I just cooked for Tobirama Senju at noon, and now I have to cook for Hashirama Senju this afternoon.

Wait, it seems like he always cooks whenever he comes here...

He actually became the Senju family's personal chef.

Lian Ye could write a book someday titled: "The Narutos' Personal Chef"

After all, the first, second, and future third, fifth, and even the Kage all praised his skills.

This would definitely earn them a place in the culinary world...

Renya's gaze swept over Hashirama's slightly gaunt face; he looked even thinner than before.

"Uncle Hashirama, are you feeling alright..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a hearty laugh.

"Lianye, look, Tsunade is getting desperate again after losing."

Hashirama suddenly raised his voice, reached out and pinched Tsunade's cheek, and used his Wood Release vines to wrap around Tsunade's pouch, taking out a few copper coins from it.

"A bet's a bet, Tsunade."

Tsunade snorted, then turned and winked at Renya, "Uncle Renya, don't believe Grandpa! He definitely cheated, I didn't win a single game."

Seeing Tsunade's confident expression, Renya smiled and shook her head.

So Tsunade's "fat sheep" physique has been hers since childhood?

It really is true that you've been losing since you were a child...

Hashirama Senju breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Renya didn't press the matter further.

He didn't know how to respond to Lian Ye's concern.

Hashirama knew his own body well, and he didn't want those who cared about him to worry.

He refused to speak about Mito, Tobirama, or Renya.

Knowing that Hashirama didn't want to talk about it, the three of them wisely refrained from pressing him for details.

But they all knew very well that Hashirama's physical condition was probably more serious than they had thought.

Otherwise, Hashirama wouldn't have been unwilling to tell them.

Renya looked at Hashirama gambling with Tsunade and sighed helplessly.

He watched for a while and then said goodbye and left.

"Uncle Hashirama, I'm going back now. I'll come back to cook later."

"Okay, thank you, Lianye."

As Renya stepped out of the courtyard, she encountered Mito Uzumaki.

"Aunt Mito, it's been a long time."

"It's Renya. Haven't you been on any missions these past few days?" Mito Uzumaki said with a smile.

"Mm." Lian Ye nodded.

Then I told her that I was coming over to cook dinner that evening.

Mito Uzumaki readily agreed, saying she would prepare the ingredients for Renya.

Renya hadn't gone far when she heard Mito Uzumaki's roar.

"Hashirama, you actually taught Tsunade to gamble?!"

"Mito, please let me explain... I was wrong! Ah—"

Hearing the noise, Lian Ye remained silent, her expression growing increasingly grim.

"Uncle Hashirama doesn't even want to use his senses anymore."

Given Hashirama Senju's strength, it was impossible for him not to have noticed Mito's arrival.

But he was still caught, which can only mean that his physical condition was so bad that he could no longer use his senses.

Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that Hashirama was too focused on the gamble and didn't pay attention.

However, the probability of this happening is probably very low...

Regardless of the circumstances, it is an undeniable fact that Hashirama Senju's health was deteriorating day by day.

Nobody knows when he will collapse.

No one can predict life or death.

They might be full of energy one day, but become seriously ill the next.

P.S.: I generated enough electricity yesterday, but I really didn't have time to write. I'll make up for it this weekend, as usual!

Chapter Ninety-Two: This Child

"Uncle, I'm going to Uncle Hashirama's house to cook dinner tonight. If you have time, just go there directly. If not, I'll bring it to you later."

Renya made a special trip to inform Tobirama Senju.

In case the old man comes home tonight and doesn't see him...

"Your older brother asked you to cook for him?" Tobirama Senju looked up and asked.

"Okay, I'll go back and cook now." Lian Ye turned and left.

With his mind filled with the delicious food Renya had made, Tobirama Senju swallowed hard, completely losing his focus on grading documents.

"This kid always cooks a very lavish meal at his older brother's place."

Renya usually cooks simple home-style dishes at home, but at Hashirama's house, she always prepares a table full of delicious food, and they don't even repeat the same dishes twice.

He even suspected that the kid was discriminating against him.

Why does my older brother eat so well, while he can only eat home-cooked meals?!

With this in mind, Tobirama Senju quickened the pace of reviewing the documents in his hands.

If we process it quickly, we can make it in time for dinner.

After all, can eating on-site and taking leftovers home be the same? Those delicious dishes will definitely be eaten by the eldest brother and Tsunade.

All that was left for him were scraps...

The residence of Hashirama Senju.

"Haha, Renya's here pretty early." Hashirama smiled and greeted Renya.

“Uncle Hashirama, I’m always very punctual,” Renya said.

"Uncle Lianye, you've finally arrived!"

Tsunade, with her short legs, quickly ran forward, grabbed Renya's trouser leg, and pulled him into the kitchen.

"Uncle Lianye, hurry up and cook me some food!"

"Alright, alright, Tsunade, don't be in such a hurry." Renye rubbed Tsunade's head.

Tsunade is such a cute and cuddly girl.

I don't know how she grew up to be such a violent woman...

"Xiao Gang, don't disturb your Uncle Lian Ye."

Hearing the commotion, Mito Uzumaki came out of the kitchen.

"Oh." Tsunade reluctantly let go of Renya's trouser leg.

Seeing this, Renya smiled and said, "Aunt Mito, it's alright."

"Thank you for your trouble, Renya." Mito Uzumaki smiled, then, as if remembering something, asked, "Is Tobirama coming over tonight?"

"I don't know." Lian Ye shook her head. "If he doesn't have time, I'll send it to him after I've finished making it."

Anyway, he had already greeted that old guy.

If you can catch it during mealtime, that would be best; if not, you can deliver it to the other party.

It's impossible for Renya to eat and drink lavishly here while Tobirama Senju is left alone in his office eating meager rations, right?

He's not that kind of person...

"Renya is so thoughtful." Mito Uzumaki covered her mouth and chuckled.

She was worried that Tobirama would be too busy to eat, but Renya said she would send some to Tobirama. How filial of her!

It seems that letting Tobirama adopt this child was definitely the right decision!

In the future, when Tobirama gets old, there will be no need to worry about who will take care of him.

"Aunt Mito, are the ingredients ready?" Renya asked.

Mito said she would prepare the ingredients, so he didn't bring any.

"The ingredients are all ready, we're just waiting for you," said Mito Uzumaki.

"Uncle Lianye, hurry up and cook, I'm hungry." Tsunade tugged at Lianye's hand.

"Haha, I'll go cook for you right away." Lianye pinched Tsunade's chubby cheeks, then walked into the kitchen with practiced ease.

"You're such a glutton." Mito Uzumaki affectionately pinched Tsunade's nose before turning and going into the kitchen to help Renya.

Tsunade playfully stuck out her tongue, ran to Hashirama's side, and whispered, "Grandpa, let's play a couple of rounds while Grandma's helping out!"

Hashirama furtively glanced towards the kitchen, and seeing that Mito hadn't come out, he cautiously took out a few dice from his pocket.

"Come on, be careful, don't let your grandma find out."

"Yeah, I know!"

…………

In the kitchen, the two busy people stopped what they were doing at the same time.

Hearing the commotion outside, Mito Uzumaki shook her head helplessly.

"Aunt Mito, aren't you going to do anything about them?" Renya asked curiously.
