He slammed his hand on the table, but thankfully he held back, or the table would have shattered.

"You brat! Are you kidding me?"

"Whether I have a man or not is none of your business! I don't! Are you satisfied now?!"

The person next to her, Shizune, was also dumbfounded.

Holding Tun Tun, she subconsciously took a half step back.

The way they looked at Di Yan was like they were looking at a madman.

How dare this guy talk to Lady Tsunade like that?

Why would you ask such a question?

Doesn't he know about Lady Tsunade's superhuman strength?

Facing Tsunade's rage, Di Yan was not afraid at all; instead, his smile grew even wider.

He leaned forward slightly and said in an extremely irritating tone:

"No? That's perfect. What do you think of me?"

"I think we are quite a good match."

Mute: "!!!!" (Speechless)

Tsunade was so angry that her chest heaved violently, and she almost couldn't catch her breath!

In her fifty-plus years of life, she had never seen such an audacious and shameless fellow!

How dare they flirt with the Hokage!

"A perfect match my ass!"

Tsunade glared fiercely at Di Yan, practically spitting out the words through gritted teeth, "I'm more than enough to be your grandmother! Kid, show me some respect!"

Upon hearing this, Di Yan not only felt no shame, but instead replied with self-righteousness:

"As the saying goes, 'A woman three years older than you is like holding a gold brick.' A woman thirty years older... wouldn't that mean I could be holding a mountain of gold?"

"It's a sure thing, Lady Tsunade."

"you……"

Tsunade was so angry at this absurd logic that she almost vomited blood.

His fists were clenched so tightly they cracked.

The powerful chakra overflowed uncontrollably, causing the teaware to vibrate and hum.

She really wanted to punch this glib-tongued brat into the ground!

But a last shred of reason stopped her.

After all, the other party was the emperor of the Land of Fire, and nominally her superior.

During this sensitive period.

She cannot actually lay a hand on a head of state.

"Hmph! Hopeless!"

Suppressing her anger, Tsunade abruptly stood up and turned to leave.

She feels like she'd shorten her lifespan just by talking to that kind of person!

It looked like Tsunade was about to storm off.

Di Yan's frivolous smile vanished instantly, and his tone became calm and profound.

He slowly took a sip of tea and said:

"Lady Tsunade is leaving already? Don't you want to know... why Elder Danzo was so confident that he could take control of you and all the Konoha high-ranking officials at the meeting in three days?"

Tsunade stopped abruptly and turned around abruptly.

She had secretly obtained intelligence that Danzo planned to launch a coup three days later.

And preparations had already been made.

But this guy actually knew... and still said it out loud.

Was he indeed manipulated and controlled by Danzo?

As she thought about it, Tsunade's eyes sharpened considerably:

"Danzo? Hmph! Whatever schemes that old man may have, I'll deal with them myself! You don't need to worry about it!"

Di Yan gently put down his teacup, raised his eyes, and his gaze pierced Tsunade like a sharp sword:

"Oh? What if... he relies on... the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Tsunade's pupils suddenly contracted!

Mangekyō Sharingan?

What a joke! The Uchiha clan has long been wiped out. Where would they get the Mangekyou Sharingan from?

Before Tsunade could process this news, Di Yan dropped another bombshell.

His voice wasn't loud, but it resounded like thunder in the tea room:

"Doesn't Lady Tsunade even have the slightest curiosity... about what Shimura Danzo... did he gain besides wiping out his fellow Uchiha on the night the Uchiha clan was massacred?"

These words, like the coldest key, instantly opened Pandora's box.

It points directly to one of Konoha's deepest and darkest secrets!

Tsunade's expression instantly turned extremely serious.

All the previous anger and contempt vanished without a trace, replaced by deep shock and vigilance!

She stared intently at Di Yan, as if trying to re-examine this seemingly frivolous young emperor.

The atmosphere in the tea room instantly shifted from the previous absurd farce to a dramatic turn of events.

It became incredibly oppressive and tense.

Di Yan knew that this was his bait.

We've successfully gotten this big, fat fish to take the bait...

"What do you know?"

Tsunade responded seriously.

“Lady Tsunade, please sit down. Let’s have a good talk,” Di Yan gestured for Tsunade to sit down again. “You know, some of the Mangekyou Sharingan’s abilities are quite troublesome.”

Di Yan spoke lightly, but Tsunade's expression grew increasingly gloomy.

As the only remaining member of the Senju clan.

Tsunade is arguably the most knowledgeable about the Sharingan of her arch-enemy, the Uchiha clan.

She was filled with wariness regarding those forbidden eyes... the Mangekyou Sharingan.

If that old bastard Danzo really does have eyes like those, that's not good news...

But she instinctively doubted it.

Danzo wasn't an Uchiha, so what gave him the right to do so?

Seemingly sensing her suspicion, Di Yan slowly took a sip of tea before continuing:

"Under certain conditions, people from other ethnic groups can also have those eyes transplanted."

"Just like how Konoha used to conduct human experiments for Wood Release, didn't they?"

Tsunade's eyes narrowed. He knew about this?

What does this guy know?

Tsunade's expression remained unchanged, but her heart was in turmoil.

She hesitated for a moment, then slowly sat down.

"What do you know? And tell me, what is your purpose?"

“I know a lot,” Di Yan refilled Tsunade’s tea. “As for the purpose, of course there is…”

As he spoke, Di Yan's gaze slowly fell on Tsunade's chest.

Tsunade cursed the lecher in her heart, and then combined this with the information from the Konoha Anbu that Kurenai Yuhi, Hinata, Ino, and Hana Inuzuka were suspected of having ambiguous relationships with Teiyan.

Tsunade already knew all along.

This emperor is a complete lecher!

"no!"

Tsunade immediately shouted.

He's old enough to be his mother, this guy's got some serious issues...

"Oh? What's wrong?" Di Yan gave an innocent look. "I just wanted to touch the Hokage's hand."

Di Yan's smile remained gentle, even carrying a hint of amusement.

It was as if what was just made was a harmless little request.

Rather than a slight offense to a Kage-level powerhouse.

Jingyin was the first to react, and anger instantly surged onto her face.

She stepped forward, holding the little piglet Tuntun, and stood in front of Tsunade, saying sternly:

"Insolence! Your Majesty, please have some self-respect!"

However, Tsunade raised her hand and gently stopped Shizune.

Just touching hands?

The astonishment and surprise on her face slowly faded.

Instead, there is an extreme calmness and scrutiny.

Her emerald eyes stared sharply at Di Yan.

It was as if they wanted to see through his gentle exterior and discern his true intentions.

"Touching hands?"

Tsunade's voice was devoid of emotion, but carried a heavy pressure: "Is this the 'price' you wanted?"

“Your Majesty, I don’t think this is a funny joke.”

Di Yan seemed to feel no pressure at all.

He slowly picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.

“A joke? No, I never joke.”

He put down his teacup and met Tsunade's scrutinizing gaze with composure. "This is just a small ceremony that represents sincerity and trust."

"Or rather, it's a trivial 'price' in exchange for the information I'm about to share, information that will shake Konoha and even the entire ninja world."

"One hand, in exchange for a chance to save Konoha from internal strife."

"Does Your Hokage think this deal is unfair?"

His words remained calm, but their content carried great weight.

This elevates personal offenses to the level of political and strategic exchange.

Tsunade's fingers tapped unconsciously on the table.

She utterly loathed this feeling of being manipulated.

Especially since the other party used the safety of Konoha, which she cared about most, as a bargaining chip.
