The Mutant God in American Comics.

Richard said to Tsunade.

Although he had never used the Eight Gates in battle, not long after learning it, he found an opportunity to experience the full power of the Eight Gates, opened the eighth gate, the Death Gate, and displayed the secret of the Eight Gates, "Night Kai".

After performing "Ye Kai", he only consumed a small part of his vitality and felt a little tired, but no other symptoms appeared.

"Have you opened the eighth death door?"

Tsunade asked quickly as she looked at Richard in surprise.

"Yes."

"Like you, I was also curious about this question before, so I opened the eighth death door to experience it."

Richard said slowly.

madman!

After hearing Richard's answer, Tsunade immediately complained in her heart.

Just out of curiosity, I deliberately opened the eighth death door.

Tsunade couldn't think of any other words to describe Richard except madman.

After silently complaining about Richard in her heart, Tsunade did not continue the topic and complained to him about the troubles after becoming Hokage.

For example, what frustrating things have happened in the village recently, what requests have been made to her by senior leaders such as Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, and how she hasn't been to the casino to gamble for a long time, etc.

Richard patiently acted as a listener and complained about Mitomon En and others with Tsunade.

Before they knew it, they arrived at the Kabukicho district.

In front of an izakaya, they saw Jiraiya who had arrived at the izakaya in advance.

Compared to three years ago, Jiraiya seemed to have not changed at all.

Although he didn't know how to use the Yin Seal like Tsunade, the three years hadn't made him look any older.

When Jiraiya saw Richard and Tsunade walking towards him together, a hint of displeasure flashed across his face.

He had thought that tonight would be the night he and Tsunade would be alone together.

It turns out that he thought too much.

"Don't you have to accompany that purple-haired girl?"

When Richard and Tsunade came in front of him, Jiraiya immediately said to Richard.

Although Uzuki Yugao is not young, she is already 25 years old, but Jiraiya, who is in his 50s, has no problem calling her a little girl.

"Xiyan left the village to carry out a mission."

Richard saw the flash of displeasure on Jiraiya's face and spoke slowly.

Just as Jiraiya was about to say something else, Tsunade's voice rang out.

"How were your three years out there?"

Tsunade said to Jiraiya.

"Not bad, Naruto is a very competitive kid."

Jiraiya replied quickly.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go in and talk about it."

After saying that, Tsunade took the lead and entered the pub.

Jiraiya didn't hesitate at all and followed Tsunade in.

After they all went in, Richard slowly entered the pub.

After entering the izakaya, Tsunade chose a table by the window and sat down.

Jiraiya came over to Tsunade and planned to sit next to her.

However, before he sat down, Tsunade pointed across and said, "You want to sit across from me?"

“I don’t want to sit across from you.”

Jiraiya replied immediately.

"Then I'll sit opposite you."

After hearing Jiraiya's answer, Tsunade stood up and prepared to sit opposite him.

"No need, I'll just sit opposite you."

After saying that, Jiraiya turned around and glared at Richard, then said to him, "You sit with me."

"I can sit anywhere."

Richard replied.

"No, just sit with me."

Tsuna pointed to the seat next to him.

Richard looked at Jiraiya who was trying to hint at him with his eyes and Tsunade who had a calm expression on her face, and sighed helplessly.

Finally, under Jiraiya's gaze, he sat down next to Tsunade.

Although he didn't know why Tsunade asked him to sit next to her, he was sure of one thing, that was Jiraiya was beginning to dislike him less and less.

Jiraiya took a deep breath and sat down opposite Tsunade and Richard.

After placing his order with the waiter, Jiraiya immediately told Tsunade about his experiences over the past three years.

Including but not limited to how he guided Naruto, what happened to them, why he bought souvenirs for Tsunade, etc.

Jiraiya had not returned to Konoha in the past three years.

However, every time he arrived at a new place, he would buy some souvenirs with local characteristics and send them to Tsunade.

Tsunade had talked to Richard about this matter before, or rather, complained about Jiraiya's aesthetic taste.

Tsunade knew very well that Jiraiya had liked her since childhood.

But she never had that kind of thought towards Jiraiya.

In her eyes, Jiraiya was just an old friend who she grew up with.

As for the rest, she hadn't thought about it at all.

When Jiraiya was recounting his experiences over the past three years, Richard and Tsunade didn't say much, just listening to Jiraiya's story.

When Jiraiya finished his story, Tsunade said to him, "Thank you for your hard work over the past three years."

"Not hard, not hard."

Jiraiya replied quickly.

After saying that, he raised the glass in front of him and clinked it with Tsunade.

"During the three years he was traveling outside, I heard that this kid was causing trouble for people from other villages. Didn't you just do anything about it?"

"If he continues to make trouble like this, other villages will have opinions about Konoha because of him."

Jiraiya said to Tsunade.

"Richard is not a ninja of the village. I have no right to control him."

Tsunade said quickly.

"But he has always lived in Konoha."

Jiraiya continued.

Tsunade turned to look at Richard and said to him, "You go talk to him."

"There's nothing much to say about this."

"I did fight the Kage and Jinchuriki from other villages, but I didn't kill them. I just sparred with them."

"Besides, I don't think my doing this will affect Konoha's reputation."

"If I remember correctly, after I became famous, more and more people came to the village from other countries to commission me."

Richard said calmly.

He knew why Jiraiya suddenly brought this up.

Jiraiya said these things in front of Tsunade because he regarded him as a rival who wanted to steal Tsunade's love.

Although he is not with Tsunade yet, Jiraiya still has a strong sense of crisis, as if Tsunade is about to be taken away.

"You didn't kill them, but others won't think you went to spar with them. They will only think that the people of Konoha are bullying people from other villages by relying on their strength."

Jiraiya said quickly.

"What they want to think is their business. I am not God and I cannot control what they think."

Richard replied calmly.

"Anyway, you still..."

Jiraiya wanted to say something else.

But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tsunade.

"Okay, stop talking about this and drink."

Tsunade picked up the wine glass and said to Jiraiya and Richard.

Time passes little by little.

After staying in the pub for more than two hours, Richard and his friends finally left.

"Shall I take you home?"

Jiraiya said to Tsunade.

"No need, go back and rest early."

After saying that, Tsunade didn't give Jiraiya a chance to speak and walked straight towards her residence.

Under the gaze of Richard and Jiraiya, Tsunade quickly disappeared from their sight.

When Tsunade left, Richard and Jiraiya said nothing and started to go back to their homes.

Richard did not intend to walk back slowly, so he directly used his flying ability and flew towards his residence.

However, not long after he flew out, he saw Tsunade standing on the side of the road and waving at him.

After seeing Tsunade, Richard landed in front of her and asked, "Anything else?"

"Have!"

"Come for a walk with me."

Tsunade said to Richard.

Although he didn't know what Tsunade was going to do, Richard didn't refuse and nodded.

After walking like this for more than ten minutes, Tsunade asked, "Do you think I should marry Jiraiya?"

Richard looked at Tsunade in surprise and said slowly, "Whether you want to marry Jiraiya or not is up to you."

"If you're asking for my opinion, I can only say that I can't give you a definite answer."

"Because no matter what you choose, there are pros and cons."

After hearing his answer, Tsunade continued, "Can you tell me in detail what the pros and cons are?"

"Let's talk about not getting married first. The advantage of not getting married is that you don't have to force yourself, but the disadvantage is that you will lose the man who loves you the most."

"The advantage of getting married is that you won't end up alone for the rest of your life, but the disadvantage is that you will need to spend every day with Jiraiya as a couple."

Richard said slowly.

Although he explained the pros and cons of getting married and not getting married, it was obvious that Tsunade only listened to a small part of it.

"Die alone?"

"You look down on me a little too much, I'm not that unattractive!"

Tsunade replied immediately.

"It's not a question of charm or not, but a question of identity and strength."
