Chance Encounter × Loss of Composure

As a woman, Tsunade was not without a broad mind; on the contrary, her capacity was greater than that of many men, otherwise, she could not have become the Fifth Hokage without any dissent.

She admitted quite straightforwardly that she was currently inferior to Nara Dan.

The Third paused upon hearing this, then recounted the situation he had learned from Kakashi, hoping to obtain a more in-depth analysis from Tsunade, and the content was roughly the same as what Danzo had obtained from Ino Rinya, "He can change and correct the body's force-exertion habits."

Tsunade also furrowed her brows; clearly, such a technique surpassed her understanding of the human body, "I can only say that his understanding of the human body might, in some respects, surpass even mine as a medical ninja,"

"Perhaps it could be said that he is no longer just a Taijutsu ninja,"

"but an expert in studying the human body."

"After all, the concept that the human body has limits is merely a summary based on history,"

"Perhaps there have long been ways to transcend human limits, we just don't know them,"

"or perhaps the human body itself has no limits,"

Tsunade spoke her views calmly, her eyes filled with complexity, "After him, won't our perspectives have to change?"

"Regardless, for Konoha, the strength of its members is always a good thing."

Having said this, Tsunade looked at the Third calmly, her meaning quite clear:

You old thing, don't stir up trouble and turn a good thing into a bad one, don't force others away or drive them to suicide, One White Fang was enough; if you add a Nara Dan to the mix, the Third's time as Hokage would surely come to an end, because no one would serve a harsh and ungrateful superior.

The Third turned a blind eye to this; an old politician's skin is much thicker than you might imagine, "Very well, Tsunade, you should go and rest now,"

"It would be best to drink less."

"People always need to look forward,"

Tsunade naturally knew what kind of person her teacher was, and she couldn't be bothered to pay any more attention to such platitudes, so she left directly.

The Third watched Tsunade walk away and sighed, a sense of powerlessness welling up within him, he was not truly a heartless politician; on the contrary, to some extent, he was just a soft-hearted old man, and to him, Tsunade was naturally like a daughter, The simplest truths are often the hardest for people to understand,

Perhaps this is something we should all learn from Nara Dan,

No matter his circumstances, he always possesses infinite fighting spirit and advances with courage,

It is indeed a very rare quality,

In this cruel Ninja World.

"Hmm?"

Nara Dan looked with some surprise at Tsunade, who was walking out of the Hokage Office, he had just been summoned by the Third to discuss important matters, seeing Tsunade holding a sake flask, Nara Dan raised an eyebrow; she really was unscrupulous, but she was the one with the most capital to be unscrupulous in all of Konoha, with the legacy of the Senju, being the granddaughter of the First, a student of the Third, and the strongest medical ninja in the Ninja World, the title of Princess was well-deserved.

Nara Dan greeted her, "Lady Tsunade,"

He had always held respect for this broad-minded female medical ninja, not to mention that Tsunade had once wanted to take him as a student, which could be considered a form of appreciation, who would have thought that upon seeing him, Tsunade would look him up and down, then let out a cold snort with a crisp nasal sound, "Nara Jonin, I really must congratulate you,"

"You have truly carved out a path in Taijutsu,"

"It seems you had the foresight not to choose me back then."

Nara Dan smiled upon hearing this, not minding it at all.

No matter how broad a woman's chest might be, her heart is always narrow.

It was just a matter from many years ago; he had rejected Tsunade's desire to take him as a disciple, and she had kept it in her little notebook ever since.

For all these years, she had never given Nara Dan a pleasant look, and whenever they met, it would end with a cold snort.

For some reason, she had said quite a lot today.

"You are too kind, Lady Tsunade."

Nara Dan was very indifferent about his own achievements; if he had a Cheat System and still couldn't dominate, he might as well just bash his head against a block of tofu and die.

"I was merely lucky."

"Besides, I was young and ignorant at the time."

"I hope Lady Tsunade does not mind."

"If possible, I would still like to learn a lot from Lady Tsunade."

The reason he had rejected Tsunade back then naturally involved the Cheat System.

With the Cheat System, Nara Dan was not afraid of falling into a predicament where he couldn't make progress.

More importantly, aside from the potential existence of Sage Arts, Nara Dan simply didn't care for the techniques Tsunade possessed.

If Orochimaru had wanted to take him as a disciple, he might have considered it.

It couldn't be helped; Orochimaru had too much to offer.

Whether it was One's Own Life Reincarnation, Cursed Seal Sage Art, White Snake Sage Art, or Impure World Reincarnation.

These were all top-tier techniques that Nara Dan coveted.

Regardless of the facts, women like to hear nice things, and there was no harm in maintaining a good relationship with a medical expert like Tsunade.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Tsunade's stern expression softened.

"It's useless for you to beg me to teach you now."

"However, I am very curious about how you managed to restrain your aura like this."

Tsunade scanned Nara Dan up and down with a probing gaze.

She knew that the shrinking of Nara Dan's physique was not a superficial reduction in energy volume.

Rather, he had compressed his body's energy, which had a similar effect to her Yin Seal.

But it was clear that Nara Dan wasn't just collecting and sealing Chakra; he was compressing and refining a certain essence of life energy.

As an expert in human anatomy herself, she knew all too well the difficulty of doing such a thing.

"Does Lady Tsunade want to learn?"

Nara Dan wore a gentle, spring-breeze smile, teasing her as if he didn't care at all about the prejudices of sectarianism.

"I can teach you."

Tsunade's pupils widened at his words.

For a moment, amidst a slight tipsiness, that fresh, spring-breeze temperament made Tsunade even more intoxicated.

Slowly, it seemed to overlap with that shadow deep within her mind.

That shadow was just like this, always as gentle as a spring breeze, always promising to fulfill all her requests with tenderness.

"Dan."

Tsunade murmured the name, unable to distinguish reality from a dream for a moment.

Unconsciously, she wanted to reach out with her fair, slender fingers to touch the face of that figure.

But she touched nothing but air.

Tsunade's eyes widened, and her tipsiness vanished in an instant.

It turned out that when Nara Dan saw Tsunade seemed drunk and wasn't paying attention to him, he had disappeared from where he stood and entered the Hokage Office.

"..."

Tsunade instantly realized she had lost her composure, and in front of a junior so many years younger than her, no less.

"That bastard."

Tsunade gritted her teeth and disappeared in a huff from the entrance of the Hokage Office.

It was unclear whether she was angry at her own loss of composure or at Nara Dan's silent departure.

But the flush on her face had not yet faded.

Whether it was because of the alcohol or some other reason, it was hard to say.

However, what Tsunade didn't see was the look of calculation flickering in the eyes of the departing Nara Dan.

Please everyone, keeping up with the latest chapters is very important, don't just hoard them!
