"Are you leaving already?"
Tsunade bit her finger, speaking with a hint of dissatisfaction; it seemed that this shy little ghost really had her wrapped around his finger. Hearing the news of his departure, she surprisingly found herself reluctant.
"I'll come to see you when I return from Loulan."
Uchiha Yoichi finished and then asked Tsunade, "When are you planning to take Nawaki back?"
If it were the old Tsunade, she definitely wouldn't return to Konoha so soon; she wanted to visit every casino across the Ninja World.
But not now, with Nawaki by her side, his development wouldn't be very good. Tsunade knew this too, although she could delay the return a bit.
"Let's wait for a few more months; I want to train Nawaki first and only let him return as a ninja after he passes my test."
Tsunade squeezed her fist and gestured, saying Nawaki had just become a Genin when he excitedly stepped into a trap and died. This time, she definitely won't let Nawaki commit the same mistake.
"Moreover, Nawaki's resurrection must be kept a secret; if other Ninja Villages find out, they might unite..."
She was one of the Sannin, naturally understanding these matters well. Although Uchiha Yoichi's resurrection ability was quite restrictive and couldn't revive everyone, resurrecting a few strong ninjas from the village was still feasible.
Other Ninja Villages might unite to attack Konoha when they learn of this; resurrecting the dead is more terrifying than having several Tailed Beast Jinchuriki.
"As long as you have a plan in mind. If anything arises, contact me using that scroll. I've also given you the Rokushiki, which you can teach to Nawaki; it's quite helpful for him, and mastering the Rokushiki brings advancement in Nin-Taijutsu!"
Uchiha Yoichi held Tsunade's soft, jade-like hand, and unlike before, if he had done this, he would have been punched away by Monster Strength for hundreds of meters.
But now, Tsunade accepted his handsy behavior and even accepted his gift. Though her words were still tough, her actions were already like those of a girlfriend.
"I obviously know, don't forget I'm one of the Sannin... Mmm~"
Tsunade didn't finish before her mouth was silenced again. This time, her whole body was embraced, but she didn't forcefully push Uchiha Yoichi away.
Princess Tsunade was teased like this for the first time, and her delicate body quickly softened.
"Mmm hm~"
Until her breath started to quicken, Uchiha Yoichi slowly released Tsunade.
"Yo-you cunning little ghost!"
Tsunade, blushing crimson, reached out a hand and pressed Uchiha Yoichi's cheek, but realized even pulling him down a bit, she still couldn't reach him, so she tiptoed and kissed his forehead with her red lips.
After doing this, Tsunade turned around, cheeks flushed, and said, "Be careful on the road!"
Having said that, she walked into the small town; staying any longer, Tsunade felt she would be at risk—indeed, a shy little ghost.
"Lady Tsunade."
"Sis!"
Tsunade hadn't gone far when she suddenly noticed Shizune and Nawaki squatting in the nearby woodlands, and Nawaki had a mischievous smile on his face.
Not acknowledging him as brother-in-law days before, and now hugging; Nawaki felt a bit helpless, his sister, truly...
"You two, have you got the Ninjutsu training down and are just wandering around!"
Tsunade shouted, very embarrassed and angry, guessing that what just happened was undoubtedly seen by both, deciding to train them rigorously.
Shizune wouldn't escape either; previously she was a bit casual, and now her medical Ninjutsu teachings would be strictly enforced.
"Get back to training with me; if you're not up to standard, no resting..."
"Huh? Sis, brother-in-law just left..."
"Nawaki! Your training is doubled!"
——————————————
Successfully conquered Tsunade, and her favorability has remained over ninety-five.
After reaching ninety-five, the strategy guide wouldn't give any more hints; anything done could possibly increase favorability, very difficult to decrease.
"Who should I choose as the next target... There's not many people with mutual acquaintance and a certain favorability basis..."
Uchiha Yoichi suddenly thought of Uzumaki Kushina; he recalled that Uzumaki Kushina's favorability was maintained at friendship level with him. But Uzumaki Kushina was married, and her child was soon to be born.
"This strategy system won't allow conquest of married women, right... Let's see how it chooses."
Upon confirming Uzumaki Kushina as the second target, the favorability immediately appeared in front, remaining at sixty-two like last time.
But since the strategy target wasn't nearby, a next step couldn't be given.
"Forget it, let's go to the Dragon Vein first; such massive energy needs proper utilization."
Knowing that not using the energy would be wasteful. As for why Namikaze Minato and others don't use the Dragon Vein's energy, that's beyond Uchiha Yoichi's understanding.
When well-utilized, it could completely transform the Ninja World.
As for the [Research Assistant], it was redeemed by Uchiha Yoichi for an extension of half a month, costing him three lottery opportunities.
Improving Lightning Release Chakra Mode speed is nearly complete; the research space for Rokushiki has now been exchanged for the improvement practice of Armament Aura and Observation Aura, needing seventeen more days.
This way, when the improvement of Lightning Release Chakra Mode ends, Uchiha Yoichi can also improve a shorter-timed Ninjutsu.
The Rokushiki's power is considerable, although useful against mid-level Jonin, completely useless against Uchiha Yoichi; his body has been tempered by the Lightning Release Chakra Mode for nearly ten years, now nearly as hard as steel.
