In Konoha, Naruto lies down

Naruto would never have thought that the seemingly silly Princess Sarah could actually see through his lie at a glance. It was really... infuriating.

But the Queen didn't seem to mind and shook her head to signal Sarah to be quiet.

He had just wanted to make up an excuse to leave and head towards Konoha. Even if the ancient kingdom of Loulan refused to let him go, it wouldn't be difficult for Naruto to leave with his current strength.

But just as the words were on his lips, he changed his mind and thought that the ancient kingdom of Loulan was, after all, a small country with some history. Following the principle that even the smallest mosquito is still meat, he changed his words.

Then, he told the story of his dual personality, but omitted Sakura and made up a random name.

Hearing this, the queen frowned and then shook her head slightly.

"Feel sorry."

"It's okay." Naruto said this, but he noticed Princess Sarah's hesitant look out of the corner of his eye. He immediately felt something was wrong but didn't say anything.

Without hesitation, he said goodbye to the Queen of Loulan.

Queen Lou Wang smiled and agreed, not intending to embarrass him at all. Loulan was a small country, and even the slightest conflict with a larger country could easily explode if not handled properly.

After leaving Loulan, Naruto looked back at the tall towers of Loulan and frowned slightly.

Princess Sarah's expression clearly indicated that Loulan had related cases and even related research. However, the queen rejected him, and he had no reason to go back.

Loulan is a small country after all, so it's normal that she doesn't want to cause trouble.

After thinking about it, Naruto gave up the idea of ​​sneaking in and taking Sarah away. If the other party is unwilling, forcing her is useless.

But it doesn’t matter, he has plenty of time to wait for the wind to come.

Loulan is just a small country. It is a foolish dream for a weak country to want to remain neutral like the Iron Country. When the war spreads, I will come back.

Let’s go to Konoha first.

He had this thought in mind: logically speaking, Konoha was the number one ninja village in the ninja world. Even if Loulan had relevant research, it might not be as detailed as Konoha.

The data must have existed, but it was destroyed later for some unknown reason.

With this thought in mind, Naruto quickly disappeared from the outskirts of the ancient city of Loulan. After a long while, a guard emerged from the distance and breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that the troublesome person has left, I can go back and report to the Queen.

At this time, the Queen was sitting and chatting with Princess Sarah, and her eyes were full of tenderness when she looked at her daughter.

"Mother, is what that man said true?"

"I don't know." She shook her head slightly. "Loulan can't withstand the war. It's definitely a good idea to have less dealings with Konoha's ninjas."

"But the story he just told was so touching." Sarah looked up at her mother. "Besides, I clearly remember a document that recorded something similar."

"Silly child, you just asked me if what he said was true or not." The queen laughed, "The dragon vein is the foundation of Loulan, and it cannot be shown to outsiders casually."

"Besides, what's recorded in the literature may not be useful. What if it fails? The people of Loulan cannot withstand the wrath of the Uchiha."

"I understand, mother." Sarah nodded obediently.

A certain yellow-haired Uchiha, on his way back to Konoha, rushed into the desert and was about to open the sealed space to replenish some water.

"Holy shit!!! Where's my water!!"

The sealed space was completely empty, cleaner than his trouser pockets. All the supplies, including the prison cell, had vanished.

This was more painful than killing him. He knelt in the desert and screamed for a long time.

After a long time, he finally accepted this tragic beginning. He had traveled through time and space and was completely naked. The sealed space belonged to the third dimension, and the equipment inside was probably not able to be brought over.

I should have brought some things with me. I blame myself for throwing everything into the sealed space. Now, I have nothing left except my windbreaker.

Naruto felt numb and looked around, but he couldn't find the north in the desert.

I should have stopped pretending and stayed in Loulan for a day. I'm sure I'll find any anomalies in the sealed space when I check my equipment. Even if I leave, I'll at least take some supplies with me.

He gritted his teeth and walked forward for a day and a night until he saw the forest on the edge of the desert in the distance, and then he lay down on the back of the sand dune with a thud.

He squinted his eyes, intending to conserve his energy before going on, cursed once more, and then fell into a deep sleep.

"This man seems to have fainted. Shizune, come and check on him."

He seemed to hear Tsunade's voice vaguely, and suddenly became confused. Thinking he was still in Konoha, he immediately opened his eyes.

What comes into view is an abyss that makes one's blood boil.

"Oh, this guy is awake." Tsunade muttered to herself and straightened up. From Naruto's angle, he couldn't see his face at all, only two lumps.

At this time, Jingyin had already hurried over and spoke in a childish voice.

"I'm coming."

Shizune came closer, revealing the face of a ten-year-old girl. This immediately startled Naruto, who sat up straight from the sand, staring at her with wide eyes.

"Shizune, give him some water. This kid is pleasing to the eye." The thirty-year-old Tsunade said lazily.

"Understood, Lady Tsunade." Shizune took out a large kettle from her side, poured out a glass of water and handed it to Naruto, "Here you go."

"Thank...thank you." Naruto was a little confused. He took the cup of water and took a sip. His dehydration was immediately relieved.

"Hmm? Why do you look so..." Tsunade frowned and stared at Naruto for a while, "This yellow hair is quite eye-catching, it looks a bit like someone."

As she spoke, Tsunade had already started rubbing it, speaking unscrupulously.

"You're a ninja, right? Why aren't you even wearing a forehead protector?"

A forehead protector? He couldn't remember how long it had been since he last wore one. Except for necessary missions, he never wore one at other times.

Ultimately, it's because I don't feel a sense of belonging to Konoha.

"Yes, I have a forehead protector." Shizune took out the Konoha forehead protector foolishly, and her later cool secretary style was completely gone.

"Me too..." Naruto wanted to say that he was from Konoha, but changed his mind and decided not to. "Well... I'm a wandering ninja, the kind that no village has taken me in."

Chapter 346: They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are they talking about? Tsunade and Naruto's game of tricks

Naruto never prepares a lie beforehand, and he doesn't feel any psychological burden. He never considers whether the other person has seen through it or not. He just speaks based on who he is talking to.

When facing Tsunade, he could tell a ridiculous lie without any worries, because he knew Tsunade's character very well, and even if he saw it, he would not bother to say it.

She doesn't care and won't delve into it.

At this time, Tsunade was in the most chaotic period of her life. All her relatives and lovers had passed away, and she herself suffered from hemophobia. She had almost lost interest in life and had no desires or hopes.

Sure enough, Tsunade just smiled and didn't say anything.

She saw a familiar look in Naruto's eyes. Although it was their first meeting, the man acted like a good friend whom she had met yesterday.

It was Shizune who first spotted him. Tsunade took a quick glance and felt that the yellow-haired man looked familiar. After a moment's thought, she instructed Shizune to rescue the man.

In fact, Naruto had already woken up before Shizune even started to check on him. This amazing vitality surprised Tsunade a little and piqued her interest.

The forbidden technique Yin Seal developed by Tsunade is a ninjutsu that stimulates the body's vitality. The Senju clan's strong capital allows her to create freely.

Who made her have pure blood and be the eldest princess of the Senju clan?

However, even though she knew that the Uzumaki clan also had such tenacious vitality, the Uzumaki clan all had a conspicuous feature: red hair. At this time, Tsunade did not recognize Naruto and did not think of the Uzumaki clan.

That's why she's a little interested. If she can uncover some of the secrets, it might be helpful for her research on regeneration.

On the other hand, Naruto didn't think too much about it. He just felt that now that he had traveled through time and space and happened to meet Tsunade, he couldn't let her go easily.

The damn old woman almost made her own Shura Field explode.

Damn it, if you offend me, don't even think about running away. If I don't trick you into going to my grandma's house this time, I'll call you mom.

The two of them, each with their own ulterior motives, smiled at each other, their smiles extremely bright.

Naruto (Tsunade) thought to himself, "Sorry, you can't get away this time!"

The innocent little Shizune raised her little head, with her short hair hanging down, looked at the yellow-haired man and then at Tsunade, and suddenly felt a little confused.

These two had clearly just met, yet they looked like they were already familiar with each other. Furthermore, was Tsunade-sama's signature smile a deception?

Shizune was very familiar with Tsunade. This master of one of the three ninjas was not a serious person at all. He would either gamble or cheat, and he would use almost every trick in the book.

Fortunately, Tsunade had a bottom line, and even if she cheated people out of money, she would return it after a while. The cheated customers were only angry for a while, but no one would question the foundation of the Senju clan.

"Where are you going?" Tsunade asked with a smile and a look of concern.

"Oh, I want to go to the Land of Hot Springs."

Naruto followed Tsunade's words and said that he wanted to go with Tsunade, so that he could find an opportunity. But he was not a fool and would not say it so bluntly.

Coincidentally, Tsunade also thought so. Only by working together can we have a chance.

"The Land of Hot Springs is quite far away. Do you know the way from here?" Tsunade began to talk nonsense seriously without blushing at all.

"This... I don't know him." Naruto shook his head with an innocent look on his face.

"I'm so sorry, I can't help you with that." Tsunade said it with an apologetic look on her face, sounding as if it were the truth. Shizune beside her believed it and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay." Naruto also smiled and was not in a hurry.

If you reject him now, he will have plenty of ways to "accidentally" meet Tsunade and the other person at the next place and compare who has worse character, old woman.

Every time Tsunade wanted to cause trouble, she would never be at peace. Either she would play along with her or she would go against her conscience and turn a blind eye to Tsunade's deceptive behavior.

At first, she was a little worried when she saw Tsunade's interested expression, but now she felt relieved when she heard Tsunade politely decline.

However, before she could exhale, Tsunade spoke again.

"Shizune, let's go."

"Oh oh." Shizune was about to leave, but suddenly her eyes met Tsunade's and she stopped immediately.

Tsunade looked at her meaningfully, her eyes concealing a familiar secret code. Shizune's heart skipped a beat, and her heart began to beat faster.

Shizune gulped as she watched Tsunade's silent mouth form.

Tsunade (silently): "You know."

Jingyin: “….”

She now regretted following Tsunade, but her fate was such that a mere Genin like her couldn't resist it. She sighed silently and could only let out a loud "eh".

"What's wrong? Shizune?" Tsunade turned around with a puzzled look.

This made Shizune speechless. Looking at Tsunade who had no trace of acting at all, she had no choice but to continue acting even though she was reluctant.

"Um... Lady Tsunade, have you forgotten? We seem to have a trip through the Land of Hot Springs, and we promised Lady Orinobu that last time."

"Oh, I remember." Tsunade pretended to be enlightened. In fact, there was a Lord Jimaori Nobuyuki, but he was just the owner of a steam bath in the Wind Country.

Naruto sneered inwardly, snorted, and thought to himself, this old woman is showing off her skills in front of the movie star. While you are showing off your acting skills, where are you losing money?

"The Land of Hot Springs? What a coincidence. I wonder...I wonder if I can go with you guys?" Naruto lowered his head slightly, behaving just right.

He looked hesitant and nervous, as if he was speaking with courage. But in fact, when he lowered his head, there was no trace of emotion in his eyes.

If you said you were going to the Land of Hot Springs, you would have had something to do with the Land of Hot Springs. If you had said you were going to the Land of Snow, would you have said you were going to the sea with me?

We are all old foxes, what are we talking about Liao Zhai?

Maybe Tsunade's acting skills are really good, at least she can fool most people, but Naruto is not a Hina anymore, and he is just as insidious in his two lives.

He took a quick glance and knew that he must have something that Tsunade was interested in. As for what it was, he didn't think about it.

The old woman wouldn't want his kidneys. Although he knew that Tsunade was as shameless as him, at least she was not as dangerous as Orochimaru.

Either he wants the skin or the kidneys, how perverted! Naruto even suspected that Orochimaru had traveled from some place called the kidney country.

"Shizune." Tsunade did not agree immediately, but looked at Shizune, as if asking for her opinion.

"Ah?" Shizune was already numb. She opened her mouth to refuse, but when she caught a glimpse of Tsunade's expression from the corner of her eye, she had to give in. "Tsunade-sama, why don't you come together?"

"Will it delay things?" she asked hesitantly.

"No, there's plenty of time." Jingyin gritted her teeth, nearly breaking them. "It's boring on the road, so why don't we go together? I'll have someone to talk to."

"Okay then." Tsunade said with a "reluctant" expression.

"Thank you, Lady Tsunade." Naruto said very smoothly. As soon as the words came out, the two women, one big and one small, looked at him and immediately reacted.

Tsunade was confused for a moment, but apart from thinking that this person learned very quickly, she didn't notice any other problems.

"If you like, call me that." Tsunade waved her hand and didn't dwell on this issue any longer.

Naruto broke out in a cold sweat, but he just chuckled and covered it up. Fortunately, the other party would never think of traveling through time and space, after all, there was no precedent.

The two smiled at each other again, and then they set off on their journey in a daze. As for why they chose the Land of Hot Springs, he had considered it beforehand.
