Tsunade suddenly felt a bit of regret for biting Aoba earlier.
But what she regretted even more was letting that little brat leave so easily, she should've given him a good punch.
"Shizune, there's really nothing between me and that brat. He just helped me with a massage," Tsunade still didn't want to admit in front of her disciple that she had some kind of special relationship with another disciple.
Snatching a man from her own disciple or something like that, it's just too humiliating.
"Then why is Tsunade-sama wearing that outfit?"
"Th-this... this is compensation for that brat."
Although it was the truth, Tsunade now felt a little ashamed.
This was the first time she ever felt so unable to lift her head in front of Shizune.
'It is all that damn brat's fault!'
"Then why is Aoba's mouth full of Tsunade-sama's scent?", Shizune dropped the bomb.
Tsunade instantly went red-hot.
'Do you have a dog's nose or something?'
That one she really couldn't explain, she couldn't possibly say that was also compensation, could she?
"Don't tell me that was compensation too?"
"Uh... that actually was compensation too."
"Hah!"
Crack!
Tsunade clenched her fist. If she didn't beat up that damn p*rverted brat, her state of mind might become unstable.
———
"Hiss~", Aoba, who had left the Hokage building, suddenly shivered.
He turned his head to look back at the Hokage building, and felt as if it was shrouded in dark clouds, like a boss fight location. Intense background music blaring at him by just looking at it.
Aoba couldn't help but speed up and walk away quickly.
———
"Aoba-sama, welcome back."
"...Welcome back."
As Aoba returned, Kin and Yugito both greeted him.
"Back this early?", Konan looked at Aoba who had returned sooner than expected, slightly surprised.
"It was nothing much, so I came back first," Aoba smiled and sat down next to Konan, then softly asked, "How's your body?"
Konan leaned over toward him a bit and said somewhat disappointedly, "Too bad we don't have enough time now, otherwise we could still have played a bit more."
"..."
'Recovered that fast?'
Aoba was truly shocked.
'Maybe that's just natural talent.'
"Hm? What happened to your mouth?", Konan also noticed something strange about Aoba's mouth, it was just too obvious.
"Cough!"
'Why does this plot feel a little familiar?'
'So next should be...'
"Bitten by Shizune-nee…"
"Really?", Konan narrowed her eyes.
Then, as Aoba had expected, she directly bit down on him.
Completely ignoring the other two people nearby.
"P*rvert!", Yugito couldn't help but secretly spit, then turned her face away with red ears, not daring to look.
Although Kin covered her eyes with both hands, the gap between her fingers just happened to expose her eyes.
Observing curiously. Like she was studying seriously.
After a long while, Konan looked at her handiwork and nodded in satisfaction.
Aoba, helpless, said a few words of comfort, then stood up and walked to the kitchen.
"Kin, I'll prepare dinner tonight."
"Ah? Oh... okay!", Kin came out of her dazed state, stood blushing to the side.
"Then I'll help Aoba-sama as an assistant."
Yugito was idle and waited on the side, acting like it was no big deal.
Before long, Yugao, Terumi Mei, and Temari returned.
Upon seeing Aoba in the kitchen, they all looked very pleasantly surprised.
———
[At Night]
Yugao gritted her teeth training under the scorching sun.
Her face was already flushed, and she was dripping with sweat.
In the end, she just couldn't hold on any longer.
Aoba didn't push her either. Training had to follow a gradual process, and couldn't be rushed.
After Yugao finished training for the night, he went to help Terumi Mei, who was training alone, with some auxiliary training.
After the two had both finished their training, Aoba gently wiped away the sweat on both of their bodies.
"Aoba, you and Konan…", Yugao suddenly opened her mouth.
She didn't say it clearly, but Aoba understood what she meant.
He nodded, "It was back in Amegakure. At that time, Konan-nee had gotten drunk…"
Yugao frowned, "Aoba, don't tell me you took advantage of Konan being drunk…"
"Uh… actually, I was the one being taken advantage of."
Aoba said somewhat embarrassedly, "Just like you did at the time, Yugao-nee…"
"Really?", Yugao's face reddened slightly upon hearing that.
Although she had forcefully pushed herself on him, Aoba didn't resist either, did he?
"Then should we ask Konan to come over next time too?", At this moment, Terumi Mei, who had been rolling her eyes, suddenly spoke.
Aoba and Yugao both looked at her strangely.
"J-just pretend I never said that," Terumi Mei also realized what she said was a little too embarrassing.
She immediately buried her head into the blanket.
"You go to them. I'm going to sleep," Yugao yawned and curled up in the blanket upon seeing that.
"This…", Seeing that both of them didn't want to deal with him, Aoba felt a little speechless.
'Put pants on and now it's all bold, huh?'
He didn't say anything more, changed into a set of casual clothes, and used Flying Thunder God to teleport into Shizune's room.
But just as he appeared, he was pounced on by Shizune onto the bed.
Aoba suddenly felt something was off.
"Shizune-nee, the barrier…"
"No need to set up a barrier tonight," Shizune, face flushed, said boldly.
Aoba's eyes widened, 'Is Shizune really this brave now?'
"Then what about Sensei?"
"It's okay, Aoba, I'm doing this for your sake."
"This…"
Shizune didn't give Aoba a chance to speak anymore and got straight to the point.
Meanwhile, in the neighboring room, Tsunade's fists were already cracking from how tightly she was clenching them.
———
Early the next morning.
Aoba didn't wait for Shizune and Tsunade, and snuck out early from the Senju ancestral home to the Hokage building.
Although he went along with Shizune's wicked idea last night.
This morning after waking up, he felt like he was going to suffer for sure.
If he stayed at the Hokage building, maybe Tsunade would show some restraint.
So, early in the morning, before anyone else arrived, Aoba was already diligently handling affairs in the office.
Not long after, the office door was opened from the outside.
Shizune, with two big lumps on her head, appeared in front of Aoba.
Shizune clearly froze for a moment, then her face changed dramatically.
"Aoba, run!"
"What?", Before Aoba could react, he seemed to hear a sound of air being sliced.
A long leg wearing high-heeled sandals was already flying straight at him.
Aoba instinctively grabbed her ankle.
"Sensei…", Looking at Tsunade's murderous gaze, Aoba couldn't help but give a wry smile.
"Let go!"
"If you don't hit me, I'll let go."
"Let go!", Tsunade's gaze became even more dangerous.
"Gulp—"
Aoba swallowed hard.
After helping Tsunade take off her shoes, he let go of her leg.
