When Tsunade woke up the next morning, she suddenly found Naruto buried in her chest and let out a high-pitched scream.
Then, with a loud bang, Naruto was sent flying out of the hotel.
Naruto: "..."
After a while, Naruto came back from downstairs, looking utterly speechless. "What the hell, lady? How can you just turn your back on me like that? You were the one clinging onto me all night. If I wasn't thick-skinned and tough, you would've crushed me flat."
Tsunade recalled what had happened the previous night, and her face instantly turned red. But as she thought about it more, something felt off. She turned to look at Naruto, her expression filled with confusion. "It's uncanny… isn't it?"
"Where's your father?" Tsunade asked nervously.
"Dead," Naruto replied with a shrug.
In an instant, Tsunade felt like the sky was crashing down on her. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Hearing the commotion, Jiraiya and Shizune entered the room. Seeing Tsunade crying, Jiraiya asked Naruto in confusion, "What did you do this time?"
Naruto waved his hands. "I didn't do anything!"
Tsunade turned to Jiraiya and asked, "Where did you find this kid?"
Jiraiya frowned. "What do you mean? He grew up in Konoha."
"I see... is this the so-called 'hidden in plain sight'?" Tsunade murmured. "How did his father die?"
"He sacrificed himself to protect the village from being destroyed by the Nine-Tails," Jiraiya said with a serious expression.
Tsunade's tears started flowing again.
Jiraiya was baffled. Why is she crying? Minato was my apprentice, but she's acting like she lost something...
Pulling Tsunade aside, he whispered, "Wait a second, do you have some unresolved feelings about Minato?"
Tsunade: "...?!"
"His father is Minato?!" Tsunade suddenly shouted in shock.
"Yeah. What's the big deal?" Jiraiya asked, still confused.
"F**k!" Tsunade cursed under her breath.
"So, you're just here to convince me to go back and become Hokage, right?" Tsunade said, feeling irritated.
"Not really," Naruto said lazily. "I just tagged along with this pervy old man because I heard there was a beautiful lady who wanted to interview me."
Tsunade gritted her teeth. He's exactly like that bastard!
"I refuse," Tsunade said, taking a sip of tea.
Thinking about Orochimaru's offer, Tsunade looked at Naruto, who was yawning in boredom, and shook her head. Even if he looks similar, he's not the same person...
"My grandfather and great-uncle both died for so-called peace, and Hiruzen Sarutobi was always so self-righteous!" Tsunade muttered to herself, an old memory surfacing in her mind. 'Hokage? That's just trash! Tiring and burdensome, only an idiot would want that. I just want to be the man of the Hokage. Hey, little Tsunade, you should become Hokage.'
"Hmph! Hokage is garbage!" Tsunade scoffed. "Only an idiot would want that job."
"Yeah, yeah. A true genius sees things the same way," Naruto nodded. "Hokage is way too much trouble. Only an idiot would want that job. If anything, it's better to be the Hokage's man. So, beauty, do you want to be Hokage?"
Tsunade's heart skipped a beat. 'I want to be the Hokage's man…'
"Is reincarnation real?" she whispered in doubt.
"Hey, Tsunade! I can be your man!" Jiraiya suddenly leaned in with a big grin.
A vein popped on Tsunade's forehead. Without hesitation, she sent Jiraiya flying with a single punch. "Are you f**king kidding me?!"
Jiraiya, now embedded in the wall, groaned. "Why didn't you hit him when he was flirting with you?!"
Tsunade glanced at Naruto, then crossed her legs and said, "Anyway, I have no interest in becoming Hokage."
"Tsunade," Jiraiya said seriously. "Right now, there's no one more qualified than you. The village elders have already issued an order."
"Hmph!" Tsunade ignored him.
At that moment, Naruto stretched lazily and said, "If a woman is being disobedient, isn't it fine to just use force? Right, Pervy Sage?"
Jiraiya's body stiffened, and he slowly turned to look at Tsunade, who was now fuming with rage. She stomped her foot onto the table, leaned forward, and stared down at Naruto, who was still lounging on the chair. "Brat, you've got guts talking to me like that. Come on, let's take this outside."
"Eh? Shouldn't that be directed at Jiraiya?" Naruto sighed. Digging my own grave here…
Outside, Tsunade stretched out a single finger and said, "I'll fight you with just one finger."
"Damn, why did it come to this?" Naruto muttered before looking at Jiraiya. "Oi, Pervy Sage, can't you take over?"
Jiraiya smirked. "Nah, you deserve this."
"Ahhh…" Naruto sighed before suddenly dashing toward Tsunade.
"Huh?! (So fast!)" Tsunade was caught off guard.
Naruto appeared in front of her in an instant and kicked from the side. Tsunade quickly raised her arm to block, immediately abandoning her one-finger promise.
With a loud bang, their clash shook the air. Tsunade threw a punch, but Naruto jumped back to avoid it.
Tsunade followed up with another powerful strike.
"Oi, oi! If you keep going like this, you'll destroy the entire street!" Naruto complained. He steadied his stance and crossed his arms to absorb Tsunade's monstrous strength. The impact instantly created a massive crater beneath them.
Tsunade jumped back and looked at Naruto with a solemn expression. She turned to Jiraiya and asked, "Is this really your apprentice?"
Jiraiya shrugged. "Do you think I could teach him this?"
"Hmph!" Tsunade scoffed and raised one leg high. "Heaven Kick of Pain!"
The ground beneath Naruto collapsed as a massive crack spread toward him. Tsunade rushed forward, landing a solid punch on Naruto's arm, sending him flying.
"Is this the power of the Legendary Sannin?" Naruto whistled. "Damn, what a leg! No, wait—what a punch!" He smirked. "And those melons—"
Tsunade caught him staring at her chest and exploded in fury. "B**tard! How dare you look at me like that?!" She began forming the Byakugō Seal.
Before she could finish, Naruto stood up, stretched his arm, and rotated his shoulder. "Whew… not bad! I think it's time to speed things up."
With that, he disappeared from Tsunade's sight.
"Nani?!" Tsunade's eyes widened, scanning her surroundings.
Suddenly, a fist appeared in her vision. Before she could react, she felt a light flick on her forehead.
"Such a beautiful woman should act more reserved," Naruto said playfully.
Tsunade's mind exploded. The same scene. The same words. The same flick on the forehead.
'Tsunade-chan, when you're about to become Hokage, I'll appear in front of you. After all, I'm a man who dreams of becoming Hokage man!'
Naruto smiled. "So, have you decided yet, Dr. Tsunade?"
