Shizune: I Didn't Expect You Two to Play This...

.

The next second, Naruto was kicked away with a bang, like a sandbag being kicked away.

I could have avoided it, but to be honest, I got a little carried away when we kissed. It wasn't just physical pleasure; my heart was filled with boundless excitement.

This feeling shot straight to the top of my head. Kissing my former domineering female boss brought a different kind of feeling.

Before you could even process it, you were already flying away.

But at least we succeeded. No matter what happens in the future, thinking about these things is pointless. It's like stamping a painting; it'll stay there no matter what.

Keeping your thoughts to yourself will only lead to trouble, and indecisiveness will only result in defeat.

He never thought about gaining or winning; victory was simply kicking the ball straight out. Tsunade's fate was not up to him.

So what if you just act recklessly? The worst outcome is just getting beaten up. But if you actually do that, is it really no different from winning?

"Naruto Uzumaki, you deserve to die!" Tsunade wiped her mouth, looking at Naruto lying on the ground in the distance, both angry and amused. How could this guy still be like this?

Eighteen years old, eighteen years old.

She hadn't even considered what it felt like to be eighteen, and before she could think about it, that guy pounced on her. If it were anyone else, Tsunade would have thought they were seriously ill.

But if it were Naruto Uzumaki, she would only think that this guy had definitely calculated things perfectly.

Knowing him as Tsunade, this man would never do anything without being certain; he was more shrewd than a dog. His schemes were all calculated, one after another.

"Cough cough cough." Naruto got up from the ground, looking seriously injured. "Lord Tsunade, I didn't mean to. I just couldn't help myself."

"Get out of here, and don't let me see you again." Tsunade, her clothes fluttering in the wind.

"Lord Tsunade, I think there's a misunderstanding between us." Naruto's skin was thick enough that he didn't care about this mild reprimand at all; in fact, he felt a tickle in his heart.

"Heh." Tsunade chuckled coldly, about to say something more.

Suddenly, Shizune's startled cry came from not far away, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look. Shizune stood there, covering her Tsunade, looking at Tsunade by the fire with a look of horror.

"What did you do to the real Lord Tsunade?"

"What do you mean, 'really' or 'fake'?" Tsunade asked, speechless. "Shizune, do I look much older than I do now? What do you mean?"

"Um?"

Hearing that familiar tone, and glancing tentatively at Tsunade's appearance, it did look different. Could it really be Lord Tsunade?

"Tsunade... Lord Tsunade?" Shizune's face was full of surprise and doubt. "Why have you changed your appearance? Why are you using Transformation Jutsu all the time?"

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Naruto slowly walking towards her from the other side of the woods, following the impact marks on the ground. His face was covered in blood from his nose; it was clear he had been beaten up.

Shizune was stunned. She looked at Tsunade, then at Naruto. She was speechless. She knew the two might have some other relationship, but she never expected them to play such a perverted game.

"Next time you play games, don't make such a big commotion, you scared me."

Tsunade: "."

She felt that Shizune was becoming ungrateful; she hadn't been beaten up since Jingyin came of age.

"Shizune, what are you talking about in your sleep?"

As they were talking, Shizune had already walked up to Tsunade. Naruto sniffed the blood from his nose, tilted his head back to stop the bleeding, and didn't dare to get any closer, standing to the side.

Shizune scrutinized Tsunade for a moment, making the latter's scalp tingle, before she finally looked away.

"Lord Tsunade, the Transformation Jutsu can be canceled now."

"What Transformation Jutsu?" Tsunade, completely bewildered.

"Transformation Jutsu that makes you younger, what else could it be?" Shizune said. "Does Lord Tsunade mean that she didn't use Transformation Jutsu, but suddenly became younger?"

Tsunade: "."

What else can be said? Shizune doesn't believe it.

"I can vouch for it, I really did get younger, it's Ninjutsu." Naruto, standing to the side, covered his nose and raised a hand, saying, "If you don't believe me, Shizune- nee, feel it."

"Lord Tsunade's skin has become smoother, and her chest, forehead, and waist have become thinner."

"What happened to your nose?" Shizune turned around and asked curiously.

"I wasn't walking on my own, I bumped into it by accident." Naruto looked up at the sky, thinking to himself that Tsunade him way too hard; she almost crippled him with one punch.

Wait, a gentleman will take his revenge, from morning till night.

Shizune was a little stunned, but when she actually touched Tsunade's arm, she was immediately awestruck. Although the Hundred Healings Jutsu also had this effect, such thorough skin activation was astounding.

"What kind of Ninjutsu that? How did you do that?"

"I can't say this, and this is the only chance I'll get." Naruto felt his nosebleed had stopped and prepared to get up and walk a few steps.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, what Ninjutsu or what Ninjutsu." Tsunade pulled her hand away from Shizune's, somewhat impatiently. "Anyway, I don't know what he did, but I really did become younger."

"How much younger?" Shizune was taken aback.

"Eighteen."

"Eighteen years old?" Shizune almost jumped up, staring at Tsunade several times. "There really is Fountain of Youth, is there? Lord Tsunade, you can't keep it all to yourself."

"He didn't keep it all to himself." Tsunade looked speechless and turned to Naruto. "Go ask him. I don't know the specifics, but I don't recommend you ask."

As expected, Naruto.

"There is Fountain of Youth, it was just a Ninjutsu, and it's gone now."

Shizune: "."

It took Shizune a long time to accept that Tsunade, even younger than her. And there was no Fountain of Youth, nor any way to make her young again.

However, she didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, Shizune was only thirty years old. For a female ninja, this age can definitely be considered young.

With both body and mind in top condition, it's fine to either train in Ninjutsu or quit being a ninja to get married and have children.

"Lord Tsunade, shall we continue gathering herbs?" Shizune asked, turning her head. "You've already returned to eighteen; you don't need to gather skincare herbs at all."

"Of course we should continue, what you're saying is really something." Tsunade's mind was a little confused, and she glanced at Naruto. "We at least need to finish what we're doing now, and we can talk about the rest later."

"Oh." Shizune glanced at Tsunade suspiciously, then at Naruto. "Lord Tsunade, should I be leaving?"

"Let's go." Tsunade had no choice but to wave to Shizune.

After Shizune left, Naruto promptly got up, but didn't speak immediately.

Tsunade glanced at him and frowned.

"Let me think about it. I'm a bit confused right now and have no idea what to do. I've heard what you said, but just pretend you didn't say anything. Just give me some time."

"I'll contact you when I've made up my mind."

"What if you haven't thought it through yet?" Naruto asked.

"I haven't made up my mind. Let's not see each other again, and I won't go back to Konohagakure." Tsunade smoothed her hair, her gaze desolate.
