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

However, it greatly enriched his repertoire of methods.

This will make his foundation more solid and comprehensive.

They are now more adept at handling various situations.

His gaze swept over Uzuki Yugao, who was still fast asleep on the bed.

At this moment, her eyes and brows still showed signs of exhaustion and tears.

She appeared weak and pitiful.

But what Di Yan saw was the value in her that had not yet been fully explored.

"Swordsmanship is just the beginning..."

He whispered, “Years of experience in the shadows, including tracking, counter-tracking, infiltration, and assassination…”

"These practical insights are the more valuable assets."

next time.

Perhaps we can guide the system to "learn" from these aspects.

Di Yan withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes again, determined.

He began to silently practice the Konoha-ryu swordsmanship he had just acquired.

To fully digest and absorb it.

It is integrated into its own combat system.

There is no single way to become stronger.

For him...

This road is clearly full of unique "fun" and rewards.

The night is still long, and so is his conquest and absorption.

It's only just begun.

95. Tsunade's Jealousy; The Reason for Gaara's Unusual Behavior

The next day.

Inside the Hokage's office.

Morning light streamed through the window, casting dappled shadows on the floor.

Tsunade sat behind a large desk.

He was surrounded by files, but he was clearly distracted.

She didn't even look up when she heard footsteps.

He only let out a very soft, cold snort from his nose.

He deliberately drew heavy marks on the document with his pen.

"Hmph, what brings Your Majesty here today? Why not linger a little longer in the arms of your beloved?"

Her tone was sour, filled with obvious dissatisfaction and resentment.

Especially when they saw that the two familiar purple and black figures were not following behind Di Yan as usual.

The nameless anger in her heart surged even higher.

Those two girls, Xiyan and Hongdou...

Especially Hongdou's loud and boisterous personality.

None of them were able to come today.

The result can be imagined.

The thought of how this man had tormented her two subordinates last night was unbearable.

Tsunade felt a tightness in her chest.

She herself possesses the art of the Hundred Healings.

A strong life force can quickly repair various injuries and fatigue in the body.

But how could Red Bean and Evening Glory have such abilities?

I'm afraid I won't even be able to get out of bed today!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

The pen tip almost pierced the paper.

It's hard to say whether this anger stems from concern for subordinates or something else entirely...

A kind of hidden discomfort that she herself was unwilling to delve into.

Di Yan seemed not to hear her complaints and walked straight past the desk.

A tall shadow loomed over it, carrying an undeniable aura.

Tsunade hadn't reacted yet.

I felt a sudden lightness in my body as he lifted me up in his arms!

"Hey you……"

Tsunade gasped and instinctively struggled.

But those arms were as sturdy as iron hoops.

The next moment, she was picked up and turned around.

It was gently placed on Di Yan's firm thigh.

He then sat down in the chair she had just been sitting in.

This position is too intimate and embarrassing.

This completely exceeds the boundaries that should exist between a Hokage and an Emperor.

Tsunade blushed instantly, her heart pounding like a drum.

She could clearly feel the hard heat of the man's leg muscles beneath her and the powerful presence emanating from his clothes.

"Let go! Don't touch me!"

She turned her head away and glared at him angrily.

The tone was far less forceful than the words themselves.

Instead, there was a barely perceptible tremor and... a mixture of reluctance and attraction.

She placed her hand, in a symbolic gesture of rejection, against his chest.

However, he did not use any chakra.

It felt more like a weak caress.

Di Yan chuckled softly, his arm naturally encircling her plump and soft waist.

He held her more firmly in his arms.

He lowered his head, his chin almost touching the top of her head.

Warm breath brushed against her earlobe.

"What, Lord Hokage, are you standing up for my guards?"

His voice was teasing, but his fingers were lightly caressing the soft flesh of her waist.

"Or... are you actually blaming me for neglecting you?"

The last sentence.

He spoke almost into her ear.

The air was scorching, carrying a deadly ambiguity.

Tsunade trembled, the tips of her ears turned bright red instantly, and even her neck turned crimson.

The embarrassment and annoyance of having her secret exposed made her even more flustered, but she refused to admit defeat verbally:

"Nonsense! Who cares about a bastard like you!"

"I'm worried about my men! They..."

“They are very nice.”

Di Yan interrupted her, his tone resolute.

It carries a sense of taking possession for granted.

"It is their honor to serve me."

"As for rest... that's what they deserve."

As he spoke, he tightened his grip on her arm slightly.

He let her press herself even closer to him.

Tsunade could even feel the vibrations in his chest and his steady heartbeat.

This feeling of being completely controlled and enveloped made her heart race.

My head is spinning a bit.

　(abeh) The thought of resistance still lingers.

But his body went limp first.

She found herself seemingly...

They are not so averse to this kind of assertive closeness.

even……

Nestled in his arms, I could smell his unique, subtly aggressive scent.

That inexplicable irritability and discomfort last night.

Surprisingly, it calmed down considerably.

She stopped speaking and just started breathing slightly.

She leaned against his chest, her cheeks flushed.

This tacit acceptance of such inappropriate intimacy.

Sunlight shone on the two embracing figures, casting their closely intertwined shadows in the office.

The document was temporarily forgotten.

A tense stillness permeated the air.

Just as Tsunade was almost immersed in the strange sense of security brought by Emperor Yan's scorching breath and strong arms.

Her red lips parted slightly, her eyes unfocused.

It seemed as if he was about to take the initiative to meet her at any moment.

"boom!"

The door to the Hokage's office was pushed open without warning.

Shizune burst in, clutching a document and yelling:

"Your Majesty! Lady Tsunade! Urgent report from the border..."

Her voice stopped abruptly.

His feet suddenly froze on the spot.

Shizune stared wide-eyed at the two people sitting almost one on the chair behind the desk, their posture extremely intimate.
