What's wrong with having a large harem if you're the emperor of the ninja world?

His other hand naturally wrapped around her slender waist.

He pulled her trembling body even closer to him.

There was almost no gap between the two.

My silent mind is completely blank.

The extreme fear and the sudden intimate contact completely robbed her of her ability to think.

She could only helplessly grasp Di Yan's arm that was covering her eyes; her fingertips were icy cold.

"Yes...it's a list of ninjas...Lady Tsunade instructed me to compile it for you..."

She answered almost instinctively, stammering.

The sound was as faint as a mosquito's buzz.

"Oh? A list..."

Emperor Yan seemed quite pleased with her "honesty," and gently patted her waist with his hand around her waist. "Shizune is indeed capable. Tsunade can't do without you. I... also think you're quite good."

His words were pointed.

The movements of his hands were filled with an irresistible aggressiveness.

Silent heartbeat was so fast it felt like it was about to burst out of her chest.

She seemed to have guessed what might happen next.

She was overwhelmed by immense shame and fear.

But they couldn't even muster the slightest strength to resist.

The office door was tightly closed.

This place seemed to have become a prison isolated from the world, belonging only to hunters and their prey.

Di Yan picked up Jingyin and sat back down in the large chair that belonged to the Hokage.

He adjusted the position of the trembling body in his arms.

He had her sit sideways on his lap.

This pose is full of possessiveness and an irresistible intimacy.

One of his hands was still around Jingyin's waist, while the other hand was seemingly casually tapping lightly on her thigh, which was covered by black trousers.

It seemed as if it was pondering, or as if it was silently measuring and appreciating.

"Silence," Di Yan's voice carried a lazy, seductive quality, "From now on, stop following Tsunade and come be my secretary, how about it? Your personal secretary."

Silent's heart leaped into her throat.

It felt as if all the blood in my body rushed to my face, then quickly receded, leaving me completely pale.

Her voice trembled with fear, and she whispered almost pleadingly:

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, you...you must be joking...This...how can this be..."

"joke?"

Di Yan chuckled softly and stopped tapping.

Instead, he slowly and suggestively moved his fingers over her legs.

"Tsunade is already my empress, that is a fact."

"As her closest secretary, you will naturally become my secretary as well."

"Isn't it only natural to get used to the new job in advance?"

He lowered his head and gently rested his chin on the crook of Silent's neck.

His hot breath sprayed onto her earlobe.

What he said made her feel even more ashamed and indignant:

"As the saying goes, when there's work to be done, the secretary does it; when there's nothing to do..."

He didn't say what came next explicitly, but his ambiguous pauses and tone suggested otherwise.

That was enough for Shizune to understand the unpleasant implications.

Silently, I felt a buzzing in my head?

My heart felt like it was being drawn up and down by fifteen buckets of water.

Extreme fear and immense shame intertwined, almost suffocating her.

She instinctively wanted to struggle and escape.

But his body was so stiff that it wouldn't obey his commands.

Deep inside, a voice screamed a warning to her:

You cannot resist!

You absolutely must not resist this man!

The fate of the entire Hidden Leaf Village rests in his hands!

She could only pray frantically and desperately in her heart:

Lady Tsunade... Lady Tsunade, please come back... save me...

However, fate seemed not to hear her prayers.

The office door remained tightly closed.

There was no sound of footsteps coming from outside.

She could only sense it.

The hand that had been lingering on her leg.

He had already deftly reached her waist without her noticing.

A gentle hook...

"Click."

A slight sound.

The belt buckle has been undone.

Immediately afterwards, cool fingertips lifted the hem of her shirt and slipped inside.

He touched her soft, delicate skin on her waist and abdomen.

"Well……"

Silent trembled suddenly, letting out a suppressed, tearful sob.

I couldn't hold back my tears and finally burst out.

It slid down her cheek.

She closed her eyes in despair.

The last glimmer of hope was completely shattered.

Lady Tsunade...did not come.

They won't be coming back.

She was like a moth caught in a spider's web.

All struggles seem so futile and laughable in the face of a powerful predator.

Di Yan felt the delicate body in his arms completely soften and the tears flowing silently.

The smile on his lips deepened.

He didn't care about her tears; instead, he found the process of her giving in rather amusing.

Inside the Hokage's office, only faint, blush-inducing rustling sounds remained.

And silent, suppressed, intermittent sobs.

As Di Yan untied Shizune's restraints, he wondered what ability he could replicate on her...

.......

79. Tsunade and Shizune; Hashirama Senju's Vision

Tsunade dragged her heavy steps back to the Hokage Building.

She had been forcing herself to stay awake.

Heading to the recruit camp at the edge of the Death Forest

Faced with those young ninjas who were forcibly assembled, their eyes filled with confusion, fear, and even anger.

Try to soothe their emotions.

Trying to get them to accept the new "reality".

She repeated those words over and over again, words that even she herself found pale and powerless.

It emphasizes the importance of obedience.

This foreshadows the terrible consequences of resistance.

Every time he opened his mouth, it felt like he was being subjected to a slow, agonizing torture, using his dignity and beliefs as a weapon.

But she had to do it.

She knows better than anyone.

Once that man is angered, he will not hesitate to raise his knife.

In order to preserve as much of Konoha's future as possible.

She had no choice but to cooperate.

They chose to become his "accomplices" in implementing his iron-fisted policies.

Exhausted both physically and mentally, all she wanted was to get back to the office as soon as possible.

I took a short breath in that familiar chair.

Even if it's just a moment of peace.

However, when she reached the door of the Hokage's office and her hand just touched the doorknob...

A very faint, yet strange sound that should never have been heard here.

It came through the crack in the door.

It was a suppressed, tearful sob.

Mixed with some kind of... unsettling rustling sound.

Tsunade's body stiffened instantly.

A chilling sensation suddenly shot up my spine and up to the top of my head.

Who is in the Hokage's office?

This voice is...

She recognized the source of the sobbing almost immediately... Jingyin!

There was no hesitation.

Tsunade suddenly pushed open the heavy office door!

The scene before me was like the sharpest kunai.

It pierced through all her psychological defenses in an instant!
