Uzumaki Naruto touched his face blankly, watching Kurenai Yuhi rush back into her room.
What was going on?
He was forcibly kissed?
"No, Hong-jiejie, that was a sneak attack."
"I have to return it!"
Ptooey!
You big pervert!
Listening to Uzumaki Naruto's shouts from outside the door, Kurenai Yuhi stood behind the door, her chest still heaving slightly.
Although Uzumaki Naruto was not yet an adult.
However,
She knew there was a mature soul living inside his body.
So,
After kissing Uzumaki Naruto just now,
Kurenai Yuhi felt like her heart was about to leap out of her chest.
"Hmph!"
"Naruto must be satisfied now, right?"
Kurenai Yuhi touched her slightly reddened cheeks, then got up and walked into the bathroom.
She had drunk so much today, she really needed a good bath.
After filling the tub, Kurenai Yuhi lay down in it.
Then,
She somewhat expectantly took out her diary.
"Hahahahaha..."
"My wife Kurenai Yuhi is the best! My wife Kurenai Yuhi is the best! My wife Kurenai Yuhi is the best!"
"Important things are said three times."
"Indeed, for men, strength is the most important thing."
"Today, I helped my wife Kurenai Yuhi beat up that guy Asuma Sarutobi, and then my wife Kurenai Yuhi gave me a surprise kiss."
"That feeling... was truly wonderful."
"Although I've taken advantage of many beauties before, being actively kissed by a mature woman like my wife Yuhi still feels very different."
"It's just that my wife Kurenai Yuhi was a bit too impatient. It would have been great if she had told me in advance when she was going to kiss me, so I could have been mentally prepared, right?"
"Also... next time, can we kiss on the lips?"
Seeing this, Kurenai Yuhi angrily slapped the water in the bathtub with her hand.
What did he mean she was too impatient?
This scoundrel!
Why would he write something like this!
Just thinking that these contents would be seen by others made Kurenai Yuhi's face burn.
It was so embarrassing.
He still wanted her to kiss him on the lips?
Dream on!
Just then,
Kurenai Yuhi noticed that the chat group 09 had already exploded.
Ino Yamanaka: No way, I was just out on a mission today, and so many explosive things happened? Asuma got beaten up by Naruto?
Kurenai Yuhi: That guy is really too annoying.
Sakura Haruno: Ah!!! Naruto's first kiss was stolen by Hong-jiejie, I was supposed to be first.
Kurenai Yuhi: Don't talk nonsense, I kissed his cheek, not his mouth!
Hyuga Hinata: Hong-jiejie... sending me home early was for this, how cunning!
"Ding!"
"Due to Kurenai Yuhi being mentioned multiple times in the diary, she receives a reward: physical fitness doubled, Chakra doubled!"
Listening to the system's prompt, Kurenai Yuhi's body underwent another change.
Chakra, strength, vitality... various attributes rapidly increased.
In just a moment,
Kurenai Yuhi had successfully crossed the threshold of Kage-level experts.
Ino Yamanaka: Damn it, being able to kiss Naruto and get a reward too, I'm so envious.
Yūgao Uzuki: As expected of Senior Yuhi, it seems I also need to work harder.
Hyuga Hinata: I also ate dinner tonight, but there was no scene of me...
Sakura Haruno: Hong-jiejie, Naruto is still young, a kiss is fine, but don't do anything else!
Kurenai Yuhi: Shut up! [??]
Closing the diary, Kurenai Yuhi covered her face with both hands.
It was over,
She couldn't face anyone now.
Konoha Hospital.
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Asuma Sarutobi lying on the hospital bed, his expression grim.
"Father..."
"Call me Hokage!"
Hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's words, Asuma Sarutobi clenched his fists.
"Hokage-sama."
"Hmph!"
"Asuma, do you know your mistake?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Asuma Sarutobi and asked in a deep voice.
"My mistake?"
"What mistake did I make?"
Asuma Sarutobi asked with a look of disbelief.
"Did I not tell you not to go looking for Kurenai Yuhi anymore?"
"There are so many women in Konoha, do you have to be so fixated on one?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi asked, feeling frustrated that Asuma was not living up to expectations.
Last time,
Kurenai Yuhi had already reported the situation to him,
And he had earnestly lectured Asuma.
But he didn't expect,
That guy turned around and harassed her again.
"I just said hello."
"It's all their fault."
Asuma Sarutobi said loudly.
"You're still arguing!"
"Do you think I don't know?"
"It was because you kept pestering Kurenai Yuhi after she clearly rejected you, that she cursed at you."
"And you were the one who attacked Naruto first, that's why Naruto fought back!"
"Why are you so stupid?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi said, annoyed.
Causing trouble was one thing, but if you hit someone, that's fine too.
The son of the esteemed Hokage, beaten up like this in public, his face was completely lost.
"Asuma, starting today, you stay home and reflect properly."
Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed helplessly.
"I won't!"
"Why?"
"I'm the one who got beaten!"
"I am your son, after all!" Asuma Sarutobi roared.
His father was like this before, and he's still like this now!
Not only would he not stand up for him, he'd even punish him in return. What kind of father does that?
"Sigh…"
Hiruzen Sarutobi shook his head, looking at Asuma Sarutobi's furious expression.
"Asuma, it's all for your own good."
"I've already paved the way for you. All you need to do is build up your reputation, and after I retire, you'll be Konoha's next Hokage."
"I don't want to be Hokage. I won't let this matter rest."
"It's been a while since I came back, and the Village doesn't seem to have changed much."
On Konoha's streets,
a woman wearing a tea-green long coat, with golden twin ponytails, fair skin, and an impressive figure, walked along the road, her eyes filled with nostalgia.
Behind her,
followed a short-haired girl holding a pink piglet.
"Lady Tsunade, where should we go first?" Shizune asked.
Tsunade was silent for a long time.
Yes,
where to go?
After so many years away from Konoha, her home in Konoha was probably long gone, right?
"How about… we go see Hokage-sama first?" Shizune suggested.
"Hmph!"
"I'm not going to see that old geezer." Tsunade snorted coldly.
"Let's find an inn first."
"But…"
"What's wrong?"
"Lady Tsunade, we're out of money." Shizune whispered.
Tsunade then remembered that she had already gambled away all their travel funds.
"Forget it, follow me." Tsunade said, then quickly walked forward.
"Lady Tsunade, where are we going?" Shizune asked curiously.
After hearing Shizune's words, Tsunade snorted coldly.
"Where?"
"Of course, to get some compensation from that perverted brat."
"Naruto!"
"Are you home?" Early in the morning, Sakura Haruno's voice came from outside the door.
"Sakura, what's wrong?" Uzumaki Naruto opened the door and immediately saw Sakura Haruno with a hint of joy on her face.
"Uh… that, Naruto, your face…"
"What's wrong with my face?" Uzumaki Naruto asked, puzzled.
"See for yourself." Sakura Haruno snorted lightly and took out a small mirror she carried with her.
Uzumaki Naruto took the mirror and immediately saw the bright red lipstick mark on his face.
Damn it,
he went straight to sleep after coming back last night and forgot to wipe his face.
"Cough… Last night, when I was walking at night, some guy suddenly rushed out and kissed me."
"You know, I'm just too charming."
"Sigh… This is probably the trouble of being handsome."
I'd be crazy to believe you!
It was Hong-jiejie Yuhi who kissed you and left it!
You scoundrel,
not a single truthful word comes out of your mouth.
Sakura Haruno muttered to herself.
"Sakura, you haven't told me why you came to see me." Uzumaki Naruto changed the subject.
"Right."
Hearing Naruto's words, Sakura Haruno finally remembered the main reason.
She took out a form from her embrace.
"Naruto, this is the Chunin Exams application form. I got one for you." Sakura Haruno said, handing the form to Naruto.
"I've already filled out everything on it for you. You just need to fill in your name."
Looking at the form in his hand, Uzumaki Naruto nodded.
He took out a pen and signed his name on it.
"Sakura, thank you so much."
"Could you also help me submit it?" Uzumaki Naruto said with a smile, reaching out and pinching Sakura's cheek.
Having a loyal follower of his own,
it was truly effortless.
"Naruto, no need to be so polite."
"We're teammates, after all."
With Uzumaki Naruto petting her head, a blush appeared on Sakura Haruno's face.
She didn't know why,
but whenever Naruto made these intimate gestures towards her, she always felt like her heart was about to leap out of her chest.
"Hmph!" A cold snort came from the side.
Uzumaki Naruto turned his head and saw Uchiha Sasuke glaring at him with an annoyed expression.
"Huh?"
"Sasuke, you're here too?" Uzumaki Naruto asked, surprised.
"I've been here the whole time, you idiot!" Uchiha Sasuke gritted his teeth.
So this bastard hadn't even noticed him the whole time?
Was his presence really that low?
"Erzhuzi, Sakura came to give me a document. What are you doing here?" Uzumaki Naruto said deliberately.
"Do you think I wanted to come?"
"It was Kakashi, that guy. He said the Chunin Exams are coming up soon and wanted us to train together to improve our teamwork." Uchiha Sasuke explained.
"So that's it."
"I thought you missed me." Uzumaki Naruto said, feigning regret.
"Idiot, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"I… who would miss an idiot like you for no reason!" Uchiha Sasuke retorted, proudly tilting his head.
"So, do you want to train together?" Uzumaki Naruto asked, looking at Uchiha Sasuke.
Of course!
If I didn't want to train with you, would I have come here with Sakura to find you?
Uchiha Sasuke couldn't help but complain inwardly.
"I didn't want to come, but Kakashi said that if our squad coordination isn't good, it will affect our exam scores."
"So… I reluctantly agreed."
"But let me say this first, you two better train hard. I don't want to be dragging any dead weight…" Uchiha Sasuke's words were cut short by Uzumaki Naruto.
"I know."
"Since you're begging me like this, I'll train with you."
With that,
Uzumaki Naruto took Sakura Haruno's hand and walked forward.
"Who begged you? Are you even listening to me, hey!"
"Bastard!"
Watching Uzumaki Naruto's retreating back, Uchiha Sasuke was so angry he almost choked.
He had said so much, was this guy even listening?
"Oh, my~"
"This is really good."
"It's been a while since I came back. Are the Ninja in the Village all this high-quality now?
"Yes, that's right. Ninjutsu combat is the essence of a female Ninja."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk… It looks so bouncy just by looking at it. I really want to reach out and touch it."
A lewd voice came.
Uzumaki Naruto, Sakura Haruno, and Uchiha Sasuke turned their heads and saw someone wriggling with his butt sticking out from the bushes by the roadside.
The words just now,
came from this person's mouth.
"Bastard!"
"This pervert."
Sakura Haruno's face showed an angry expression, and then she kicked the person's butt.
"Ouch!"
"Who dares to ambush this Sage?"
After being kicked, the man immediately stood up.
Then,
he looked at Uzumaki Naruto and the others.
"You brats, how dare you ambush this Sage? Do you have a death wish?"
The man was tall and wore a red coat.
He wore a forehead protector with the character "Oil" on it, and his white hair, like a hedgehog's, hung down to his waist.
He carried a huge scroll on his back.
Below his two eyes, there were also two red markings.
Coupled with the man's own aura, he seemed truly formidable.
"Hmph!"
"Perverted peeping tom, we heard everything you just said."
"Do you believe I'll report you?!"
Sakura Haruno snorted coldly.
Peeking at others was bad enough, but saying such messed-up things was simply unforgivable!
"What did I say?"
"You kicked me for no reason. I should be the one to report you!"
The man said loudly.
"You!"
Hearing the man's words, Sakura Haruno's chest heaved violently with anger.
How could this person be so thick-skinned!
"You three brats, apologize to me today!"
"And treat me to a meal at the tavern, and I'll be magnanimous and let you off."
"Otherwise…"
The man didn't finish, but the threat in his eyes was very obvious.
"You're dreaming!"
"Who do you think you are?"
"We're not afraid of you."
Sakura Haruno shouted, hands on her hips.
"Who am I?"
"Since you asked so sincerely, I will graciously tell you."
"The Toad Sage is a name hidden from the world."
"Unmatched across the entire world, the white-haired child of the Three Sannin."
"The handsome man who makes crying children shut up upon seeing him, Jiraiya-sama, that is I!"
Accompanied by a series of exaggerated and comical movements, the man completed his self-introduction.
Sakura Haruno and Uchiha Sasuke were both completely bewildered.
What the hell?
Could this guy be a lunatic?
Only Uzumaki Naruto's face showed a faint, imperceptible smile.
This guy,
must have been waiting for them here on purpose, right?
What a clumsy trick,
Jiraiya...
