What did it mean that Haotu's chakra wanted to connect over?
Was this like Tsunade calling me?
Wu Yu scratched his head in confusion and said, "Let her in."
"Hm?" Jade Rabbit blinked her adorable eyes.
"I mean, let them come over."
"Okay!"
As soon as Jade Rabbit finished speaking, the water beside Wu Yu and Jade Rabbit rapidly bulged amid a "splash," and a huge white rabbit emerged. Sitting cross-legged atop its head was a young, beautiful woman with light blonde hair and a green robe—Tsunade, whom he had not seen in a long time.
The sight reminded Wu Yu of Naruto meeting with the other Jinchuriki in the spiritual world.
"It actually worked..." Tsunade, seated atop Haotu, also looked rather surprised. Bracing herself on her legs as she looked down, she smiled at Wu Yu. "What, are you surprised to see me?"
"Surprised, well..."
Wu Yu held Jade Rabbit in his arms and rubbed her as he quickly came to a realization. "I get it. Jade Rabbit and Haotu were both created by mixing Nature Energy with your chakra as a base. And since Jade Rabbit and Haotu came from the same source, their chakras were already closely connected... Still, was there really any need to make her this big?"
"What's wrong with being big?" Haotu shouted excitedly. "I'm Haotu! I want to be big! Awoo!"
"Did she drink too much or something?"
Wu Yu said speechlessly, "Or did Tsunade's influence corrupt you?"
"Haotu didn't drink too much! Haotu wasn't corrupted!"
"Hmph, you brat, you're still as disrespectful as ever."
Tsunade leaped down from the giant Haotu's head and landed on the water with a splash, walking step by step toward Wu Yu. Haotu's enormous body sprang high behind her, rapidly shrinking to Jade Rabbit's size in midair before landing in Tsunade's arms.
Wu Yu's gaze followed Haotu's falling arc, and in the end, his head gave a little wobble too.
"Smack."
Tsunade walked over and flicked him on the forehead.
Wu Yu thought he was about to be sent skipping across the water again, but Tsunade merely held a finger against his forehead.
Tsunade above him said, "That's not where you should be looking..." Her finger pushed upward against his forehead, and Wu Yu's head tilted up along with it.
Tsunade was truly fed up. "Roll your eyes upward too!"
"Is it bad that Lord Wu Yu likes looking at me?" Haotu asked in confusion from Tsunade's arms.
Tsunade said, "Was he looking at you?"
Wu Yu looked upward, only then noticing that the diamond-shaped Yin Seal on Tsunade's forehead had changed from purple to deep red.
"Could this be..." Wu Yu was astonished.
Tsunade released him and smiled faintly. "That Kaguya of yours absorbed my chakra before, so I figured you should know what this is for." She tapped the deep-red Yin Seal on her forehead. "That's right. What's stored in here is all Sage Chakra."
That worked too?
Wu Yu said, "So you came to me because..."
Tsunade said, "After tomorrow's mission is over—hey!" She gave a light shout, pointing at Wu Yu's eyes, which seemed ready to wander again, then at her own. "After tomorrow's mission is over, come find me."
"I wasn't trying to sneak a look," Wu Yu said helplessly. "I was thinking!"
With that, he directly raised his head and stared upward to prove his innocence.
After demonstrating for a while, he lowered his head again and found that Tsunade and Haotu had already vanished.
"That old lady, leaving without even saying goodbye..." Wu Yu muttered.
Jade Rabbit, still in his arms, said, "She was so fierce."
"Little Jade."
"Hm?"
"You're very perceptive. They really are great boobs!"
"Hehehe..."
Accompanied by Jade Rabbit's silly giggling, Wu Yu opened his eyes. Moonlight lay across half the bed like a blanket. Looking at the tranquil night sky beyond the window, he was utterly speechless. In the middle of the night, that old lady had disturbed his sweet dreams!
Was Tsunade planning to teach him the Yin Seal?
To make up for the weakness of his Stamina and Chakra Reserves 2?
She had really taken this matter to heart...
Wu Yu got out of bed barefoot and pushed open the bedroom door, thinking, Has Tsunade really started caring for me like a beloved disciple...? The thought left him with mixed feelings.
All this time, he had somewhat treated these "old acquaintances from manga" as two-dimensional characters. Calling it disrespect would be an exaggeration, but he had certainly been a little flippant about them.
Now that he suddenly felt Tsunade's genuine feelings as a teacher, Wu Yu could not help being somewhat moved.
"Holy shit!"
Wu Yu was walking through the living room when he caught sight of a white figure from the corner of his eye and jumped in fright.
"Click." He turned on the light and saw that it was Mysterious Kaguya sitting on the sofa.
"How rare—you're not floating. You learned how to sit..."
Wu Yu muttered to himself as he slipped into the bathroom to relieve himself. When he came out, he yawned and passed through the living room again, mumbling, "Get some sleep early... Hm? What are you reading?"
Mysterious Kaguya was sitting on the sofa, reading the revised transmigrator version manuscript of Carefree Wandering that Wu Yu had written. She seemed quite absorbed in it.
Since she had already seen it, he might as well roll with it.
Thick-skinned, Wu Yu sat across from Mysterious Kaguya, crossed his legs, and asked, "Well? Any thoughts after reading it?"
"..." Without looking up, Mysterious Kaguya said, "Are matters between men and women truly that enjoyable?"
Wu Yu said with a straight face, "I'm only fourteen. Why are you asking me that?"
Mysterious Kaguya glanced up at him without saying anything, turned the page, and continued reading.
Wu Yu took a peek. She had reached Chapter Three, the part where Yang Guo fled the Ancient Tomb with the severely injured Little Dragon Girl. In a hidden chamber beneath the water, Little Dragon Girl taught him the Yin-Yang Divine Skill, and he helped heal her injuries...
Before that, in Chapter One, Uchiha In had just transmigrated into the Ancient Tomb when the chaotic energy within his body left him muddle-headed, and he did something unspeakable with one of the tomb's maidservants. Little Dragon Girl, who had been in secluded cultivation, discovered them afterward.
Little Dragon Girl did not fly into a rage—she simply did not have that function. Moreover, she had no real concept of relations between men and women, so she naturally did not punish the maidservant. She merely gave Uchiha In a new name, Yang Guo, as a token gesture, then kept him in the Ancient Tomb as a male servant.
Chapter Two was about Li Qiushui infiltrating the Ancient Tomb for a surprise attack. What Mysterious Kaguya meant should have been that little segment in Chapter One. In order to write something that matched the standards of Icha Icha Paradise, Wu Yu had even specifically studied it for quite a while...
After finishing the novel's only three chapters, Mysterious Kaguya put down the manuscript and asked calmly, "Uchiha In—is that the In from Indra?"
Wu Yu said, "It is... but it also isn't?"
With a sweep of her sleeve, Mysterious Kaguya rose gracefully into the air. "I don't like it."
Who the hell are you to say you don't like it?
These Mysterious Clones were all about to rebel!
Wu Yu grumbled inwardly. Gathering the manuscript pages and tapping them into order, he said, "Then I'll change it to... Uchiha Mori?"
"Whatever..."
Mysterious Kaguya drifted away lightly.
If it's whatever, why did you have so many opinions?
Before Wu Yu could finish rolling his eyes, Mysterious Kaguya floated back and said coolly, "You can add more scenes involving men and women. There isn't enough to read..." Then she stopped floating altogether and simply merged with the air where she stood, vanishing without a trace.
