People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"so what?"

Lucifer narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's see if Tsunade needs help. If she really needs help... I haven't used magic in a long time!"

"You really are protective of your own."

Lucifer said irritably, "But you didn't mean to stop me."

"It's quite a coincidence that I'm also someone who's protective of my own."

Lucifer chuckled and said, "That's easy to tell. Hey? When did you think Ainz Ooal Gown brought Albedo over?"

"Well... it'll probably be tomorrow or the day after, but if it's tomorrow... well... that would be a bit too lively."

"Tomorrow... I didn't even notice until you mentioned it! There are going to be so many people coming tomorrow!"

Bai Yu said somewhat helplessly, "It doesn't matter. I'm a little worried that if Ainz comes, and if Reimu and the others come too... Reimu won't just defeat Ainz right away, will she...?"

Lucifer was also taken aback, and said somewhat nervously, "No way... Will Purple tell Reimu...? She might not even dare to speak up, and Blue doesn't seem to be going out... That's dangerous for Momonga!"

"So you're just agreeing to be a bystander?"

"Huh? Do I need to get in charge?"

"puff...."

Chapter 799 Tsunade's Thoughts, Kushina's Curiosity (Please Subscribe~)

On the other side, Yakumo Ran was desperately trying to cheer herself up, constantly hypnotizing herself, thinking that as long as she got through tomorrow, she would finally make it through! She would let Lady Yukari stay in bed one more time!

Yukari Yakumo had actually woken up a long time ago, but she felt like her bed had sealed her off. That wasn't the key point. The key point was that she was going to a dinner party tomorrow, which meant she was going on a date!

Every time she thinks about this period, Yukari Yakumo gets a headache but also feels a little expectant. It's the first time she's ever dated a man since she was born.

"Phew! I'm not sleeping anymore!"

"Lord Zi! You're awake."

Yukari Yakumo asked in confusion, "Eh? Ran? You seem quite excited?"

"I was worried you were sick because you were sleeping the whole time, so I'm so glad to see you're alright!"

Yukari Yakumo was taken aback and said with some confusion, "Eh? So we can get sick too? That's amazing... I just feel a little tired, that's why... Ran, let's go!"

"it is good!"

Yakumo Ran looks forward to the evenings the most each day, when she can enjoy a big meal and relax. Sometimes, if Yakumo Yukari gets home a little late, she might go to work if she's in a good mood, so Yakumo Ran can rest!

Ordering, chatting, and enjoying life in the familiar atmosphere—Yakumo Yukari breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why, but when she arrived at the store, she wasn't as nervous or anxious anymore.

Tsunade didn't come as expected. Hancock ate something, received a goodnight kiss, and left. It seems she's going to go out to sea again soon.

"We've finally arrived..."

"Tsunade-sama!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Tsunade had traveled all night and was about to enter the village when someone called her. Turning around, she saw Hiruzen Sarutobi's guard, who quickly said, "Lady Tsunade, the Third Hokage wants you to return during the day and go see him immediately, no matter what time it is."

"So rushed? Do you know what happened?"

"It seems they sent a little girl back, and she's in your house now. I don't know much else and it's not convenient for me to say anything more."

Tsunade nodded and said, "I understand, but is it really necessary to go so early?"

The guard nodded without speaking. When Tsunade followed the guard to Hiruzen Sarutobi's side, Hiruzen was looking at some document, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, looking like he had been busy all night.

"Ah! Tsunade, you're here. You're here much faster than I expected."

"Well, it's nothing difficult, it's just a bit far. What happened?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said, "Here's the information. Take a look at it first, and then tell me your thoughts."

Tsunade was taken aback, but still picked up the document and started reading. However, her pupils quickly contracted and her beautiful eyes widened slightly, but she was no ordinary person and did not exclaim in surprise.

This made Hiruzen Sarutobi nod in approval. He remained calm and composed, befitting his disciple. Tsunade carefully read every sentence in the intelligence report, and only after a long while did she put down the document and sigh.

"Tell me what you think."

After pondering for a long time, Tsunade said in a deep voice, "I can't say much, but I can say... the Land of Whirlpools... the Uzumaki clan... they're too powerful to be trifled with..."

"The principle of 'the tallest tree in the forest' applies..."

Tsunade narrowed her eyes. Konoha made no move, which was why she couldn't say anything; the truth behind some things was too dirty.

"So I just heard that a child was sent to my house? Is he an orphan?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and said, "That's right, her name is Kushina Uzumaki. She has a clean background, so you can rest assured. There's no need to investigate too much. Just go through the motions, and then we can let her enroll."

"Hmm, but I'm afraid it's not that simple..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a hint of helplessness, "You knew it, didn't you? After all, it wasn't hard to guess."

"Jinchūriki... Tsk... I understand. Is there anything else?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi thought for a moment and said, "There is... there is indeed something. I heard recently that your boyfriend... hasn't shown up for a long time."

"What do you mean?"

"It's alright. After all, there's no need for him to investigate. I'm just curious where he went."

Tsunade said in a deep voice, "He is training."

"Hmm... I once heard my teacher, the Second Generation Master, your Second Grandfather, mention a powerful young man named Bai Yu, and your boyfriend..."

"It's him, but not my boyfriend, he's my fiancé. I think as long as he's not from the Uchiha clan, they shouldn't interfere too much. After all, he's someone approved by my great-grandfather, great-grandfather, and grandmother."

Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head and said, "Of course, you're overthinking it. I was just curious..."

"He doesn't know when he'll come back, but although he has a good temper, he's also very strong."

"It seems necessary to meet him when he comes again."

"I'll bring him. After all, no matter what, you'll be at my wedding, right?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and said nothing more. He was satisfied with Tsunade's answer. After Tsunade saw that there was nothing else, she went home. She wanted to see Kushina.

"What should I do today? Eh? That's...so pretty! Coming this way...it's Tsunade-neechan!"

As Kushina was leaning against the windowsill, lost in thought, she saw Tsunade approaching. She quickly ran downstairs, and just as Tsunade was about to knock, the door opened. A red-haired girl she had never seen before made her pause for two seconds before she exclaimed in surprise, "You must be Kushina!"

"Hmm! Tsunade-neechan?"

"Hmm! She's such a cute little girl. At this hour... has she had breakfast?"

Kushina shook her head. She had just finished washing up when Tsunade returned. Tsunade asked in confusion, "Where's Nawaki?"

"Nawaki? Ah! Grandma Mito said he went on a mission!"

"I see... Let's go, I'll cook, and we can have a good talk after we eat."

"Wow! Tsunade-neechan is so beautiful and can cook too!"

"I'm far inferior to Bai Yu, but he did praise my progress. I should practice more."

"Brother Baiyu...you must be Tsunade-neechan's lover..."

"Ok!"

Seeing the genuine smile that appeared on Tsunade's face whenever she mentioned him, Kushina became even more curious about Shiraha. What kind of person could make this Konoha princess smile so happily just by mentioning him?

Chapter 800: Yukari Yakumo's Oath, Ran Yakumo's Words Awaken the Dreamer (Please Subscribe~)

Kushina was truly amazed by Tsunade's culinary skills. Tsunade was beautiful, had a great figure, was strong, and now cooked so well. Kushina admired Tsunade very much.

"Kushina, you'll be going to school in a few days. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask us, either when Nawaki or when I'm home. Of course, it's best if you ask me. Nawaki is still a long way from being good enough."

Kushina nodded, then asked in confusion, "I understand. By the way, Tsunade-neechan, yesterday Grandma Mito told me that Shiraha-nii doesn't belong to any village? What does that mean?"

Tsunade thought for a moment and said, "I can tell you, but you have to promise not to tell anyone."

"Uh-huh!"

Tsunade whispered, "Shiraha is actually in another world."

"Another world... um..."

Kushina was about to exclaim in surprise when she quickly covered her mouth. Tsunade smiled and said, "That's right, he also owns a restaurant, and his cooking skills are very strong!"

"Oh... So, how did you and Shiraha fall in love, Tsunade-neechan?"

Tsunade smiled at this thought and said, "This story is too long. Let's talk about it after you finish eating. Let's go to my room."

"Oh, right, Tsunade-neechan... Grandma Mito wants me to stay in your old room now..."

Tsunade was taken aback for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "Then stay here. It's right across from my and Shiraha's room. If you need anything, just come and find me."

"Ok!"

With that in mind, Kushina ate exceptionally fast, which surprised Tsunade for a moment. In the end, she could only sigh inwardly at the child's curiosity.

However, she was still happy to tell others about her romantic history, because it was a unique memory for her. When Kushina arrived at Tsunade's room, she felt a little emotional. It was a very homey room, one that she hadn't had a chance to properly look around last time.

"Huh? So many picture frames... This is Tsunade-neechan... Huh? Then this is...."

Kushina stared in surprise at the group photo in the frame. Tsunade, wiping the now-clean frame with a towel, smiled and said, "Hmm, this is Shiraha. Isn't he handsome? Don't they look like a perfect match?"

"Ok!"

Tsunade smiled and said, "When Shiraha isn't around, I always feel like something's missing from the room, but thankfully I can find time to go see him."

"Tsunade-neechan, you're surprisingly clingy."

Tsunade smiled and said, "That's true... If I could, I'd really like to stay by his side forever..."

"Tsunade-neechan, about what you said before about you and Shiraha-nii-san..."

"This...it all started when I was very young, or rather, it began around the time of my great-grandfather..."

"Huh?! So early!"

"Right...."

Tsunade spoke slowly and deliberately about the past, her eyes filled with reminiscence, while Kushina listened, occasionally letting out a sigh.

Meanwhile, Yukari Yakumo started to panic again because it was past midnight, which meant it was already the weekend and she had a dinner party tonight! And then a date!

Yukari Yakumo glanced at Shiraha, who was reading a comic book with Lucifer, and was a little dissatisfied. She was the only one who was nervous like an idiot, while he looked very relaxed.

You seem to be really looking forward to it....

Upon hearing Yuuka Kazami's words, Yukari Yakumo paused for a moment and said, "Huh? Really? Do I look like I'm looking forward to it?"

"Your anticipation and nervousness are written all over your face..."

Yukari Yakumo's eyes twitched, and she coughed lightly, saying, "That's inevitable. This is a rare and major event. Some things will be decided tonight, so it's bound to be very tense."

"Oh? You get nervous about something like this?"

Why don't we even have the right to be nervous anymore?

Kazami Yuuka took a sip of her flower tea and said softly, "It's a very simple matter. You've been preparing for this meeting from the very beginning. You planned to invite so many people, so there's absolutely no need for you to be nervous."

Yukari Yakumo said with a smile, "Oh my, you really know me! But Yuuka, didn't you also say that you're really looking forward to it? So there's no problem!"

"You're looking forward to it? You're quite looking forward to it, but not really..."

Upon hearing this, Yukari Yakumo's lips twitched. Good heavens, this combination of punches—was this a finishing blow before death? It was getting a bit too much.

Just as Yukari Yakumo was about to speak, she saw Yuuka Kazami whisper, "You're actually quite excited too, aren't you...?"

Yukari Yakumo was taken aback and didn't speak for a long time before softly saying, "Yuuka... what are you thinking?"

Kazami Yuuka didn't speak and continued looking at the bonsai. Yakumo Yukari rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit of a headache. How could she not sense that Kazami Yuuka was holding back her thoughts?

She didn't know what Kazami Yuuka was thinking, but she could sense that Kazami Yuuka had something she wanted to say to her. If she could get away with it this time, she vowed that she would never flirt with anyone, male or female, for the rest of her life.

Yukari Yakumo understood, but she felt she had realized it a little too late. Ran Yakumo whispered, "Lady Yukari... you don't actually need to panic..."

"Huh?! What do you mean?!"
