After the Third Hokage left, Tenzo tactfully excused himself as well.
Tsunade then pulled Itsuki aside.
For a long while, she questioned him about his past, reminisced about her own, and finally promised to protect him from now on — to make up for the years she had unknowingly owed him.
Having acknowledged Itsuki, Tsunade decided to return to Konoha and move into his home with Shizune.
However, until the Third Hokage confirmed the identity of Itsuki's grandmother, she refused to involve herself in the village's other affairs.
Tsunade's early return will definitely change Konoha's collapse plan.
But that's not my problem. Uncle Snake should be the one worried.
Konoha can only be reborn after the collapse.
That can't be stopped. My job is just to protect the people I care about.
In fact… maybe this chaos is the perfect chance to fish in troubled waters, deal with that old bastard, and clear the way for Tsunade to become Hokage.
Lying on his bed, Itsuki felt a strange mix of emotions.
Suddenly, he had a guardian — someone who cared for him like family.
It was uncomfortable, in a way he wasn't used to.
But looking into Tsunade's eyes, he saw how deeply she cherished him.
It was warm, flattering, and terrifying at the same time.
He couldn't shake the fear that he might disappoint her.
"What's with that look? You've been lost in thought this whole time — I've been standing here forever!"
Tsunade's voice snapped Itsuki back to reality.
He turned — and froze.
She had just stepped out of the bath, a loose robe wrapped around her, towel in hand as she rubbed her wet blonde hair.
Fresh from the bath, her body still carried the faint fragrance of soap.
For a young man full of hormones, this was the kind of scene that fried the brain.
And now that Tsunade was planning to move in, this was going to be a problem.
"Pfft!"
Being a medical ninja, Tsunade saw through him instantly despite his attempt to stay calm.
She tapped his forehead with a jade-like finger and smiled. "Little Itsuki really has grown up. You're already at the age where you react to women. That puts me at ease."
"Aunt, please have mercy!" Itsuki forced himself to look away and changed the subject. "It's late. Aren't you going to rest?"
"I came here because I'm ready to rest." Tsunade walked closer, smirking. "Auntie's going to sleep with you!"
"…Eh?" Itsuki was stunned.
Do you not consider yourself a woman? Or do you not consider me a man?!
"Look at your face, silly boy!"
She knocked him on the head, shoved him onto the bed, and crawled in beside him.
Lying on her side, she gazed at him softly. "I still can't believe it… it feels like a dream. I never thought the Senju would still have an heir. I never thought I'd still have family."
Her voice wavered. "I'm afraid if I close my eyes, I'll wake up and it'll all be gone. That's why I want to stay right here, next to you."
This was fear of losing what she had just found.
Itsuki understood. But did she have to test his sanity in the process?!
"Why so quiet?" Tsunade paused, then chuckled knowingly. "Are you imagining something? It's fine, you're at that age. But really, do you still think about an old woman like your aunt?"
"Please!" Itsuki groaned, shrinking back. "Aunt looks like a young woman. I try not to think anything inappropriate, but lying next to a beauty like you dressed like that—what do you expect?"
As a medical ninja, she understood physiology better than anyone. Hiding it was pointless.
"It seems I still have my charm," Tsunade teased, her eyes glinting mischievously as she leaned closer, pressing her curves against him.
She whispered in his ear, "So tell me, what will you do if you can't control yourself?"
This was definitely seduction.
Itsuki's eyes burned red — but before he could react, Tsunade burst into laughter and scooted away.
"Little Itsuki, you're too cute. Auntie just can't help teasing you. How about this…"
She formed a seal and with a puff of smoke transformed into a huge, bearded man scratching his toes.
In a gruff voice she asked, "Well? Can you control yourself now? Do you want me… or your aunt? Pick one!"
"…."
Itsuki almost kicked the bastard out of bed.
"Aunt, for the love of god, stop with your magic tricks!" he begged, pressing his forehead to the blanket in surrender.
"Alright, alright. I'll stop teasing."
Tsunade canceled the Transformation, stood up, and adjusted her robe where it had come loose.
Then, suddenly, she bent down and kissed Itsuki's forehead.
Her cheeks flushed pink as she pulled back. "Auntie won't bother you anymore. Sleep well."
With that, she left.
Itsuki sat stunned for a long time, unable to settle.
He tossed and turned until well past midnight before finally falling asleep.
But outside his room, Tsunade herself was red-faced.
"Normal orientation, healthy physiology, no psychological blocks… and…"
She curled her fingers into a circle, realizing with a blush that she couldn't even close the gap.
Everything exceeded expectations.
Yes. The Senju's revival wasn't just a dream.
In two or three years, once Itsuki matured, she'd make sure the clan flourished again.
She'd already decided: she'd start with Kurenai Yuhi and Anko Mitarashi. Yugao Uzuki was also a fine choice.
They were already drawn into Itsuki's orbit. To Tsunade, that meant destiny — and destiny was not to be refused.
As for the younger girls in the Itsuki harem chat group, they just needed more time to bloom.
Their opinions? Irrelevant.
Lady Tsunade would decide. And no one would dare oppose her.
The next morning, Itsuki stumbled out of bed with panda eyes.
Still groggy, he was practically dragged by Shizune to wash up and then shoved toward the dining table.
The breakfast waiting for him was richer than anything Tenzo had ever brought — and Tsunade had cooked it herself.
She explained that it was a special meal designed by a medical ninja to maximize physical growth.
Itsuki couldn't recall most of her lecture.
He only knew two things: it was delicious, and he was forced to eat way too much.
"Digest it," Tsunade said firmly. "Then meet me in the backyard. We're training."
She didn't waste words. She acted. Itsuki's schedule was packed from the start.
Since the Anbu weren't summoning him, Tsunade arranged an extended leave for him, declaring she would personally train him in secret.
Itsuki didn't mind — though he doubted what he could learn from her in terms of fighting.
After all, Tsunade was a medical ninja.
Her combat strength, while formidable, was considered rough compared to other Kage-level shinobi.
And Itsuki didn't like "rough." He preferred elegance.
Why crush an enemy with brute force when you could overwhelm them like a Gundam dropping from orbit? Now that was style.
But Tsunade had other plans.
She intended to teach him the Super Strength technique.
And her explanation shattered all of Itsuki's assumptions.
This wasn't just about raw, violent power…
