Bee's face stiffened, and he took a step, intending to run.
"If you move one step, I'll lock you in Cloud-Lightning Gorge for a year!" A, who had arrived quickly, saw that Bee still intended to escape and roared.
Shinji, who had retreated behind him, raised an eyebrow.
Good heavens!
The Fourth Raikage even used his Lightning Release Chakra Mode? Was he planning to beat Bee to death?
A figure, like a blue lightning bolt, shot towards Bee.
"Damn big brother, idiot big brother!"
Bee crouched low and met the figure in front of him with a punch.
Boom—!
A huge explosion sounded, and the two figures collided.
Shinji was a little regretful he hadn't brought sunflower seeds. This scene of brotherly affection was perfect for watching.
Samui, beside him, couldn't help but glance at Shinji. Could he perhaps tone down his excited gaze?
She, a person from Kumogakure, was still standing nearby.
Hmm?
Just as Shinji was thinking of continuing to watch the show, he suddenly looked at the road in the distance.
Such powerful Chakra!
This kind of Chakra was almost only seen on Jiraiya.
Clatter—
Clatter—
Footsteps approached from a distance.
A, who was still engaged in brotherly affection, stopped. He turned his head to look. According to the journey, Kumogakure's team shouldn't have arrived yet.
"Well! It's been a long time since I've been back. Looking at this gate brings back so many memories."
A figure, holding a touch of pink, looked at Konoha's gate and spoke to the figure beside her.
"Tsunade-sama, don't you feel the same?"
The figure with light blonde hair, hearing this, pouted unceremoniously. "It's still as rundown as ever, hasn't changed at all."
A watched the approaching figure, his expression becoming increasingly serious.
"Konoha's Sannin, Tsunade!"
Tsunade, hearing someone call her name, turned her head and said calmly, "Oh?"
"Why are Kumogakure's people here at Konoha's gate? It seems I need to tell the old man about this."
"Don't invite just any stray cats and dogs."
Tsunade finished speaking and walked towards Konoha's gate.
A heard these words, and his eye twitched involuntarily.
"Eh! No—no clothes!"
"So big!"
Bee, beside A, followed Tsunade with his gaze, his eyes unblinking beneath his sunglasses. He spoke unconsciously.
"Hmm?"
Tsunade, hearing this, stopped and looked dangerously at Bee, who had spoken.
"What are you saying?"
"Big!" Bee responded without hesitation.
Boom—!
Tsunade instantly appeared in front of Bee, her right fist raised high, smashing down towards Bee's head.
"That's enough! You perverted brute!"
Invisible ripples spread out, and Bee's entire face was smashed into the ground. His limbs, with the movement, floated like a broken sack.
Samui and Shizune were both shaken back several steps.
Shinji, beside them, couldn't help but gulp. Although he could also exert such striking power, watching this scene, he couldn't help but feel a little pain.
A was speechless, looking at Bee, whose entire face was embedded in the ground beneath his feet.
This guy was simply disgracing Kumogakure! What kind of decorum was this!
"Tsunade, after all these years, you still have the same personality."
Ignoring Bee, who looked like he was about to die, A spoke to Tsunade, who was getting up.
"Oh? Do you have an opinion?" Tsunade glanced at the Fourth Raikage, asking very calmly.
"As long as you don't kill him, it's fine. I wanted to punch him too, anyway." Saying this, A grabbed Bee's foot and pulled him out.
It must be said, the Jinchuriki's skin was truly tough. He didn't even bleed after that punch.
"Tsunade-senpai, Fourth Raikage, why don't we go inside first?" Shinji, seeing that there was no more show to watch, stepped forward and spoke.
"Hmm? You're the disciple the old man took in?" Tsunade looked at Shinji, sizing him up and down.
After a while, her bright red lips parted slightly. "Very handsome!"
"...Thank you for the compliment." Shinji's lips twitched, and it took him a while to speak.
"Heh heh, he's even more exaggerated than you Konoha Sannin." A said, looking at Shinji, and couldn't help but subtly poke fun.
"Oh? I heard your Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was defeated by my junior? It wouldn't be this one, would it?"
With outsiders present, Tsunade's target immediately shifted outwards, looking at the still unconscious Bee with a mocking expression.
Shinji, who was embraced by Tsunade, kept tugging, trying to break free.
"Stay put! Take me to see the old man!"
Tsunade, displeased, gave Shinji a punch, then turned and walked towards Konoha's gate, still embracing Shinji.
"Senpai, I still need to lead the way for the Fourth Raikage." Unable to break free, Shinji could only say helplessly.
Tsunade, who had just walked a few steps, turned back, annoyed, to look at the Fourth Raikage. "What? Do you want me to invite you?"
A: "..."
"Let's go."
Having dealt with Tsunade before, the Fourth Raikage naturally knew what kind of personality Tsunade had. He spoke to Samui, who was beside him.
"Yes." Samui obediently followed the Fourth Raikage.
As for the main force that would arrive later?
Someone would naturally come to arrange it.
Kotetsu and Izumo, who were guarding the gate, watched the figures slowly walk in.
That person has actually returned!
—
Hokage Office.
Shinji sat on the side, serving tea and water to the two in front of him.
Tsunade looked around, seeing that the office was still the same.
"I say, old man, after all these years, aren't you going to change the style?"
As she spoke, Tsunade patted the sofa beneath her bottom, "This sofa, it must be from my granduncle's time, right?"
Shinji, hearing this, couldn't help but look at the sofa.
Wow!
This was an 'antique'?
Hiruzen chuckled as he puffed on his pipe, "If you become Hokage, you can arrange this place however you like."
"No need." Tsunade reached out, interrupting Hiruzen's words.
"I didn't come back to hear all this from you. Tell me, what's the situation with the Uzumaki clan members you mentioned?"
Hiruzen glanced at Tsunade, then began to explain.
Shinji, beside them, idly watched Shizune, who was standing behind Tsunade—no, to be precise, the pink pig she was holding in her arms.
'I wonder how delicious this pig would be if roasted as a suckling pig?'
Just as Shinji was thinking this, Tonton, who was sleeping in Shizune's arms, suddenly shivered all over. Her entire head quickly buried itself in Shizune's arm, then she looked around.
Someone wants to harm a pig!
