Chapter 39: A Purely Platonic Relationship!
[Senju Butsuma: Tajima, you old devil, watch your mouth! I'm not afraid of you!]
[Uchiha Tajima: Hmph~ As if I'm afraid of you?]
Ren Arakawa: "Enough arguing! If you've got the guts, take it to the arena and settle it properly. Quit cursing like a bunch of gossiping old women!"
[Uchiha Tajima: This junior has a point. Old man Butsuma, do you dare to face me in the arena?]
[Senju Butsuma: What is there to be afraid of?]
A moment later.
[Uchiha Tajima: Young man, I'm already a VIP in your live stream, so why is the arena still telling me I can't enter right now?]
Ren Arakawa: "Are you blind? Can't you see the Fourth Hokage and his wife are still... busy inside?"
[Uchiha Tajima: As the clan leader of the Uchiha clan during its peak, I have never encountered anyone who dared to speak to me like this!]
Ren Arakawa: "Well~ now you have..."
[Uchiha Tajima: ...]
[Senju Butsuma: Young man Ren, when can we enter the arena?]
Ren Arakawa: "Just wait until the Fourth Hokage and his wife come out!"
[Senju Butsuma: When will they come out?]
Ren Arakawa: "Holy crap! Your question makes me doubt your intelligence. How should I know when they'll come out? It could be soon, or it might be after they've... had a child?"
[Tobirama Senju: Hey, Ren, you should open more arenas next time. With so many people subscribing to VIP now, one arena definitely won't be enough in the future!]
Ren Arakawa: "Scarcity increases value, but of course, the main reason is that I'm not qualified yet!"
[Tobirama Senju: So how do you become qualified?]
Ren Arakawa: "It's simple—make me stronger. For example, you could give me the Senju clan bloodline you possess!"
[Tobirama Senju: Get lost! You already swindled all my forbidden techniques last time, and now you want to con me out of my Senju bloodline? Do you have any shame?]
Ren Arakawa: "Huh? I think I just heard you cursing at me?"
[Tobirama Senju: I was wrong!]
[Senju Butsuma: Sigh~ How embarrassing!]
[Tobirama Senju: Dad~]
[Senju Butsuma: Don't call me Dad!]
[Tobirama Senju: ...]
While they were talking, the situation inside the arena changed. In the scene, the Minato couple, who had been embracing, finally separated. However, they did not leave the arena immediately. Instead, they gazed tenderly at each other for a while. After a moment, Minato closed his eyes and slowly lowered his head. Judging by his posture, he seemed intent on kissing Kushina Uzumaki directly.
Upon seeing this, Uchiha Madara, who had never been fond of women, was the first to lose his composure.
[Uchiha Madara: Holy crap~ This is outrageous! This Fourth Hokage definitely has questionable morals. He's actually doing this kind of thing with his wife in front of so many of us.]
[The Third Raikage: The Fourth Hokage is ruthless—he even dares to do this in front of a Jinchuriki. I have to admire his boldness!]
[Uchiha Fugaku: That's right. Actually, I've always suspected that the Jinchuriki's vision is shared with the Tailed Beast inside them, right? So, when those two were doing that, wasn't the Nine-Tails watching the whole time?]
[Uchiha Izuna: No wonder this guy is so bold, daring to put on a show in front of so many people. It turns out he's already used to Kurama's watchful eyes!]
[Hashirama Senju: That's enough, all of you! Can't you see I'm here too?]
[Uchiha Izuna: We're talking about the Fourth Hokage, not you. Why are you getting so worked up?]
[Uchiha Madara: Izuna, you died young, so you probably don't know, but Hashirama's wife was also a Jinchuriki!]
[Uchiha Izuna: Damn~ I didn't expect Hashirama to be such a ruthless character. I can't afford to mess with him...]
[Hashirama Senju: ...]
[Tobirama Senju: Sigh~]
[Hashirama Senju: Holy crap, Tobirama, what are you sighing about at a time like this?]
[Tobirama Senju: N-nothing!]
[Uchiha Izuna: Tsk tsk tsk~ Since ancient times, the relationship between a man and his sister-in-law has always been a bit complicated. I think the reason Tobirama sighed is probably because he did something to wrong you!]
[Tobirama Senju: Holy shit~ You trash Izuna, what nonsense are you spouting? How could I possibly do something so heinous?]
[Uchiha Izuna: Don't be nervous, Tobirama. I was just saying it casually, just joking. Why are you so flustered? Did I hit a nerve?]
[Tobirama Senju: Damn it, I didn't! Big brother, believe me, you have to believe me! My relationship with your wife is innocent—it's purely platonic!]
