Sasuke Uchiha's Challenge

Konoha Hospital

Private Executive Room, Rooftop

"Blegh... blegh..."

Tsunade crouched over the toilet, throwing up everything she had eaten last night. Her stunning face was deathly pale, making her look pitiful.

Outside, Xiao Yun arrived at the door carrying a fruit basket and found Shizune standing guard.

"Big Sister Shizune, I came to see Tsunade. I heard she passed out trying to save me. Is she all right?"

Xiao Yun asked.

"Xiao Yun, do you even have a conscience? Lady Tsunade not only fainted while saving you, she nearly miscarried! And here you are, rushing off to get engaged to the Hyuga Clan. Are you even human?"

Shizune berated Xiao Yun without holding back.

Getting engaged to the Hyuga Clan?

Xiao Yun stared at Shizune in utter confusion. What the hell was this about?

"Big Sister Shizune, how come I don't know anything about the Hyuga Clan wanting to arrange an engagement with me? It's a rumor!"

Xiao Yun waved his hand.

"Hmph! Keep pretending! The whole of Konoha knows by now that you're about to marry the Hyuga Clan's eldest daughter."

Shizune clearly did not believe him.

"Big Sister Shizune, I swear to heaven, I really didn't know about this. Forget it, I can't be bothered arguing with you. I'm going in to see the mother of my child!"

"Tsunade, I'm coming in!"

Xiao Yun shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Tsunade, it's Xiao Yun. I came to see you. I'm coming in!"

After a long while, when there was still no response from inside, Xiao Yun shouted again.

"Tsunade, I'm com—"

"The door isn't even locked. Can't you come in yourself? Do you need me to carry you inside?"

Tsunade's roar rang out from the room.

Creak.

The door opened, revealing Tsunade lying quietly on the hospital bed. The fading rays of the setting sun spilled across her peerlessly beautiful face. Perhaps because she was feeling unwell, Tsunade, normally so decisive and fierce, now exuded the unique charm of a mature woman.

That touch of allure was intoxicating, captivating, impossible to pull away from.

Only now did Xiao Yun truly understand the saying: When you're young, you don't know how good older women are, and mistake young girls for treasures!

For a moment, Xiao Yun was completely spellbound. Tsunade was simply too beautiful like this. Such a beauty was actually carrying his child. Heaven truly had eyes!

"Why aren't you training properly? What are you doing here?"

Sensing Xiao Yun's predatory gaze, Tsunade spoke irritably.

That single sentence killed the conversation.

Xiao Yun gave an awkward smile, not knowing how to answer.

After a long while.

"Tsunade, Shizune told me your pregnancy symptoms have been especially severe. And that day, while saving me, you even convulsed. I came specifically to check on you."

Xiao Yun walked over to Tsunade's side and placed the things he had bought on the bedside table.

"Hmph! I heard you're going to marry some rich, beautiful girl from the Hyuga Clan?"

Tsunade said coldly.

"Tsunade, I swear to heaven, I only just heard about this from Shizune. Don't worry. As they say, a good man doesn't ride two women. Even if the Hyuga Clan tied me up, I wouldn't submit to them."

"Besides, you're carrying my child. If I married a woman from the Hyuga Clan, how would I be any different from a scumbag? I will never coexist with scumbags!"

Xiao Yun declared righteously.

"Pfft!"

Tsunade laughed.

So beautiful!

Ever since Xiao Yun had met Tsunade, he had never seen her smile before. It was truly breathtaking.

Silence!

As their eyes met, a strange feeling spread through the room, and Tsunade could not help blushing slightly.

It was strange. At first, she had only treated Xiao Yun as a replacement for Kato Dan. But everything had changed after she discovered she was pregnant. Especially whenever she vomited until the world spun around her, she could not help blaming Xiao Yun.

Yet the more she blamed him, the more she found herself thinking about him. Had she changed her heart?

The image of Dan Katō, whom she had once loved so desperately, was gradually fading from her mind. That unforgettable love had faded with it, while her heart was slowly being filled by someone else.

"Tsunade, you're so beautiful."

Xiao Yun could not help taking Tsunade's smooth, delicate hand, instinctively leaning in with his lips.

That bastard, he actually... I'll kill him! Yet for some reason, Tsunade did not strike him for a long time. Instead, she subconsciously closed her eyes.

Mmph!

Their lips met, making soft sucking sounds like a baby nursing.

"Tsunade, I..."

With soft jade in his arms, Xiao Yun felt a wicked fire surge through his body in an instant. His hands began to wander restlessly.

"Get lost!"

Tsunade sent Xiao Yun flying with one punch.

Whether it was because Xiao Yun's body had become tougher after learning the Eight Inner Gates, or because Tsunade had not used much strength, Xiao Yun only felt the slightest bit of pain this time.

So kissing was allowed, but touching was not!

The corner of Xiao Yun's mouth curled into a strange arc. As long as I persevere, I'll win her over sooner or later!

"Big Sister Kurenai, why are you here?"

Shizune's voice suddenly came from the doorway.

"I came to see Tsunade."

A gentle, pleasant voice drifted in. Just from the sound alone, one could tell she was a great beauty.

"Go out through the window!"

"Okay!"

Xiao Yun jumped out the window. Then he paused. Damn it, that wasn't right. He wasn't some adulterer, so why was he climbing out a window?

After leaving the hospital, Xiao Yun did not rush back. Instead, he wandered around Konoha. Konoha's commercial district was especially bustling, with food, drink, entertainment, and everything else in one place.

Especially that izakaya called Fengyuexia Izakaya. The girls inside were truly yoshi!

It was said that many ninja risked their lives outside completing missions, only to hand every bit of the money they earned over to those women. The most famous example was Jiraiya, one of the Three Sannin.

"Hey, whose handsome boy is this? Come in and have some fun!"

As Xiao Yun passed the entrance of the izakaya, a middle-aged woman stopped him.

Xiao Yun looked at his wallet and shook his head bitterly. Damn it, he had not expected that after transmigrating into the Naruto world, he would still face the embarrassing situation of a hero being stumped by a single coin.

But then again, what if he did have money?

Even if I had money, I wouldn't spend it on these women. Tsunade is still pregnant with my child.

"Oh my, handsome boy, since you're so good-looking, I'll give you a ninety percent discount today."

The madam pushed and pulled, forcibly dragging Xiao Yun inside.

"You'd better not be lying! By the way, are your services legitimate? Let me make this clear first—I'm not going if they aren't."

Xiao Yun asked.

"Legitimate! How could they not be? Every customer who comes here says it's good."

The madam said with a smile.

"Xiao Yun, I finally found you. I challenge you."

At that moment, a cold voice rang out. Xiao Yun turned around—Uchiha Sasuke.
