Immortality begins with the ninjas of Konoha

"You've all worked hard these past few days. There are some things that we really need to discuss after we've eliminated the Akatsuki."

Tsunade sighed and got up to leave. Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and continued working on the documents. Suddenly, he thought of how his disciple had become increasingly youthful over the years, and after taking another puff of smoke, he sighed inwardly:

"As expected of the power of immortal arts, it is truly wondrous!"

...

As night fell, Tsunade returned home and went to the back of the courtyard. After taking off her clothes, her face flushed slightly. She took a deep breath and stepped into the steaming hot spring.

"Teacher, would you like a drink? It's your favorite sake."

Seeing the indistinct figure ahead and the tray floating towards her, Tsunade finally grabbed the sake bottle and moved to Furukawa Osamu's side. After taking several sips, she let out a long sigh:

"Shu, I've accumulated enough Sage Chakra. We can't continue doing that kind of thing anymore."

"You deserve to have your own life too. I can't take away Jingyin's happiness anymore..."

Furukawa Osamu looked at his teacher with a smile. He knew that the other had been struggling with something lately. Silently, he put the sake bottle aside and embraced her voluptuous body.

"Life is already very good now, teacher. Don't always judge yourself by the standards of ordinary people."

“Look at her body now, she seems more honest.”

With her head down, Tsunade watched as her full, fair skin gradually deformed, and her breathing immediately became rapid. She looked up, about to say something, when her pink cherry lips were once again compromised.

Just as Osamu Furukawa said, no matter how conflicted she was, her transformed body would give the most honest answer.

Unconsciously, Tsunade embraced her disciple. Recalling the girl's expectant eyes, she felt a mix of guilt and inexplicable excitement.

From the hot spring to the entrance hall, from the entrance hall to the living room, and from the living room to the bedroom, Tsunade could not control her body's desires and frantically demanded her disciple's Sage Chakra.

After an unknown amount of time, Tsunade, her golden hair disheveled, unconsciously twisted her body, gradually regaining her senses as she nestled in Furukawa Osamu's arms.

Thinking about her performance just now, Tsunade closed her eyes, snuggled close to her disciple's ear, and whispered:

"What will we do in the future, Xiu? Have you thought about what the future holds?"

"As long as the teacher likes it, of course we can stay together forever. Just like I said, the body has already transformed and should get rid of the thoughts of ordinary humans."

Furukawa Osamu gently stroked the moist, smooth skin, sensing his teacher's excitement, and quickly gathered his Sage Chakra to continue his training.

Tsunade quickly forgot all her troubles. She didn't know what the future held, nor how to explain it to Shizune. She just wanted to continue living like this.

"Shut up! Stop..."

"I can no longer absorb Sage Chakra..."

Outside the room, the pink pig lying on the ground tilted its head. Although it could always hear its owner's cheerful and high-pitched shouts, Tun Tun felt that its owner's mood seemed to be even more elevated recently.

Thinking of how the other female owner never played like this with the male owner, Tun Tun sighed inwardly:

"Humans are so strange. Wouldn't it be more convenient to mate together?"

In early May, with the Joint Chunin Exams approaching, Konoha Hospital became a little busier.

More and more young people are working so hard that they end up in the hospital. When everyone hears that the Cloud Village ninjas are coming, they all want to take this opportunity to bring victory to the village.

At the age of 13, Kabuto Yakushi was already a Chunin. Although he did not fully demonstrate his medical ninjutsu in his work, his usual performance had already made him a genius ninja in Konoha Hospital.

Inside the ward, after changing the bandage on Iruka's injured arm, Kabuto immediately gave me a kind smile and instructed me:

"Your arm is dislocated and some meridians are damaged. Don't push your body during this time."

"If you rest well, your exams next month won't be affected."

Iruka nodded vigorously, then a bitter smile appeared on his face. He had completely lost confidence in this exam.

Wearing a white medical coat, Pharmacist Kabuto made constant rounds, remaining busy throughout the morning. His performance earned him unanimous praise from his seniors, and at noon, everyone extended invitations to him.

Kabuto politely declined the lunch invitation and, taking advantage of the reduced number of people during the lunch break, quietly went to the rooftop.

A ninja with long green hair and a tiger-face mask noticed the boy's arrival and immediately reminded him in a cold voice:

"Two years at most, that's Lord Xiu's mercy, you can make your own choice."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses. He knew the ANBU ninja before him was Pakura, the Scorching Release ninja, but he hadn't expected her to have changed so much.

"Only with Master Xiu can I truly feel needed!"

"The Dean wanted me to have my own life, but I chose to follow Master Xiu and explore the mysteries of life—that's what I truly want..."

Kabuto, obsessed with the research of forbidden techniques, has lost count of how many corpses he has handled. When fear turns into joy, he becomes completely absorbed in it.

Especially after Washu-sama completely resolved the alienation problem, the sense of accomplishment and joy made Kabuto feel that he truly existed.

Upon hearing the answer, Yekura immediately turned away, sighing inwardly but offering no further advice. Furukawa Osamu always managed to captivate these bewildered children.

"I hope you won't regret it. In a few days you will face the test of the cursed seal."

"This is Lord Xiu's great favor to me!"

Chapter 236 Love and Fear...

In mid-May, the merchant fleet from the Land of Tea visited the Land of Waves again. The wide variety of goods was warmly welcomed, and many impoverished people showed great enthusiasm for consumption.

Having lived in this country for some time, Obito Uchiha became increasingly cautious, not only wearing a straw hat when traveling, but also using the Transformation Technique in crowded places.

Although the Mangekyou Sharingan still contains great power, Obito did not want to go blind and cherished his eye power even more, wanting only to use it to protect his family.

The shabby commercial street was unusually crowded. Ling, with her long black hair tied up, was held in Obito's arms. His concern made her eyes even more tender.

Although Bai could tell that his idolized older brother had a close relationship with his mother, he did not object.

Compared to the father who would only yell at his mother and son, the kind older brother was much better, and Haku also liked Obito's care for him.

"Hey sir, wanna buy some deep-sea supplements?"

"This is currently the most popular product among the nobles in the Land of Fire."

Obito nodded, and as he took the exquisitely packaged box into his hand, his pupils suddenly contracted. He recognized that it was a mark designed by Konan, and that these products were related to the Land of Rain.

In the past, he didn't care about these things at all, nor was he interested in the changes to Amegakure.

Only now did he realize how much "energy" the other party had accumulated; it seemed he had never truly controlled the Land of Rain and the Akatsuki organization.

"Brother, isn't this too expensive!"

Hearing Haku's whisper, Obito, snapping out of his daze, ruffled the boy's soft black hair, then pulled out some money and said softly:

"To live a good life, you naturally need to increase your expenses."

"These things will make Ling healthier, and you don't need to worry about the price."

"The young man is right! Health is priceless! There are advertisements in the Land of Fire, and the slogan seems to be just like that."

The chubby middle-aged businessman immediately gave a thumbs-up in praise. Ling, wearing a straw hat, lowered her head, but the corners of her mouth turned up. This was the life she had always dreamed of.

It was a rare occasion for merchants to come to the Land of Waves, so the three of them ended up making a big purchase.

When he returned home in the afternoon, Bai happily circled around Obito. As he took a snack from his mother, he buried his head in it and ate it voraciously, mumbling indistinctly:

"Mother, older brother, will I have a younger brother?"

"Actually, I also want to sleep with my older brother..."

"cough!"

Upon hearing the boy's words, Obito, who was inspecting the goods, immediately turned red and coughed. Although Ling was a little embarrassed, she still rubbed her son's head.

"Brother is protecting us, Bai, you must be obedient."

Haku nodded vigorously. He also wanted to protect his mother. He subconsciously looked at Obito, remembering that Obito had promised to teach him ninja knowledge.

Obito naturally noticed Haku's gaze, and considering the possible future scenarios, he finally spoke softly to Ling:

"I plan to teach Haku some ninja training methods."

Ling's body trembled slightly. She turned to look at Obito, fearing something had happened to her son, and subconsciously asked in a low voice:

"Wouldn't this be too dangerous? What if there are people here who also reject ninjas..."

"If Haku inherits the bloodline limit, he should master this power so that he can protect himself and you."

Obito hugged Haku, and the boy looked up, his face full of anticipation. He wanted to become a powerful ninja, and when he turned to look at his mother, he shouted back:

"Big brother is right, Mother, I will protect you!"

Ling glanced at Obito, noticing the gloom in the young man's eyes, and finally nodded in agreement. After all, this was no longer the Land of Water, and hiding might not cause any major problems.

...

Under the pitch-black night, Haku, who had just finished his simple ninja training, quickly fell asleep in his room. Obito praised his talent, and the boy was overjoyed.

In another room, Obito and Ryo were both panting heavily, releasing their unease, and the two hugged each other again.

"I'm sorry, Ling, but perhaps one day I will bring danger to you."

"I used to think that the virtual world could replace reality, but that was just deceiving myself."

"This world is cruel, but it is also beautiful. The existence of ninjas may be a mistake, but it should not be judged by any one person. The world will eventually give the answer."

After saying this, Obito buried his head in Ling Baixi's neck, and the latter immediately hugged him gently and whispered:

"Don't apologize, you've already saved us."

Obito's eyes reddened as he felt the love. He felt both ashamed and afraid, and he completely understood Minato's feelings that night.

Obito felt suffocated whenever he thought about Ling and Bai being in danger one day.

Ling noticed the dampness, and her face flushed. She didn't dwell on the past and whispered an invitation again.

Fear and shame eventually turned into pleasure, and Obito finally fell asleep with Ling in his arms, completely exhausted.

When Obito woke up in the morning, he saw Bai Chun's smiling face again. He was a little embarrassed and turned his head away. After quickly sitting up, he noticed that it was already past 8 o'clock, so he immediately started talking about things that the boy was interested in:

"Your talent is remarkable. You were able to use Ice Release after your first chakra refinement. That's impressive!"

"It's not too late to start ninja training now. In just a few years, you'll be able to become a ninja who can stand on his own."

Bai cheered happily, then asked in a low voice:

"Really? Big brother, can I become as powerful as you?"

Obito reached out his left hand to support the pale, thin shoulder, then gave a solemn instruction:

"Promise me you won't abuse this power."

"If you encounter danger one day, you only need to protect yourself and your mother."

"Don't let hatred control your life; live a healthy and happy life."

Bai blinked his big eyes. He didn't quite understand hatred and life, but seeing Obito's serious expression, he couldn't help but nod vigorously.

When Ling brought breakfast to the room, seeing Obito and Haku getting along harmoniously, a gentle smile returned to her fair face. Thinking of what happened last night, she couldn't help but ask softly:

"If we stay a while longer, will we have to move again?"

Obito was slightly taken aback, noticing Ling's uneasy gaze, and immediately realized that his dejected mood last night had frightened her:

"We'll consider moving when Bai grows up. Don't worry, Ling. Even if I've lost most of my power, I can still protect you with these eyes."

"Big brother is so amazing!"

Bai Xiao's face showed admiration as he praised loudly. Obito lowered his head and chuckled. The Kamui eye technique allowed him to keep the two of them by his side, so he wouldn't be late this time.

After breakfast, Obito took Ling to the dense forest behind the house to guide Haku's training.

The boy's talent was outstanding, reminding Obito of Kakashi when he was in school, and then the image of Osamu Furukawa appeared in his mind.

For some inexplicable reason, Obito thought to himself, "This brings to mind the changes in the Land of Rain."

"Is the Land of Rain also connected to him? How did he manipulate all of this?"

"Perhaps we should find an opportunity to secretly pass a message to Kakashi and Minato."

-

The Konoha Ninja Academy was on weekend break, and taking advantage of the fine weather, Sasuke dragged his brother to train in the dense forest early in the morning, as if he was afraid that Itachi would be snatched away if they were late.

Watching her two brothers leave the house, Mikoto Uchiha smiled, but when she noticed her husband approaching from behind, her smile faded.

"Does Itachi really have to go through something like that?"

"Why must we obtain the legendary power? And why Itachi?"
