Yamato—Chen Fan remembered him. He seemed to have been the only child to survive Orochimaru's experiments transplanting the First Hokage's cells into him when he was young. He possessed the same ultimate ninjutsu as the First Hokage: Wood Release, which had an excellent suppressive effect on the Nine-Tails' Chakra.
Afterward, Kakashi, Naruto, and Yamato went to Training Ground 3 to practice, while Sakura went off to practice Medical Ninjutsu on her own.
Only Chen Fan and Tsunade remained in the office. With no outsiders around, Tsunade became much more casual, sitting on Chen Fan's lap as she handled documents.
"You really believe in the theory of the strong," Tsunade said to Chen Fan. Unlike Naruto, she could fully understand what Chen Fan meant. Although the law of the jungle was an eternal rule in the ninja world, saying it aloud still sounded rather unpleasant.
"Because I don't want to become weak," Chen Fan said.
"You're weak? Then are there even any strong people left in this world? Don't shoulder everything by yourself. You still have us. We're family now, so don't underestimate us." Tsunade wrapped her arms around Chen Fan's neck and looked into his eyes.
Chen Fan smiled and nodded. He kissed Tsunade on the lips, then said, "You've always been the strength that keeps me going."
Tsunade nodded in satisfaction. After giving Chen Fan a little benefit, she continued working. But with Chen Fan's personality, he would never allow Tsunade and the others to fall into danger. No matter what happened, he would definitely bear it alone.
Meanwhile, at Training Ground 3—
Naruto had begun cultivating Chakra nature transformation. Nearly a thousand clones trained at the same time; this was the method Kakashi had come up with. When Shadow Clones disappeared, their memories returned to the original body.
