Uchiha Kō led Tsunade out of the dark and damp prison, and sunlight streamed down, illuminating their path.
The two strolled side by side down the bustling street, the noise and commotion around them not hindering their conversation.
As they walked, Tsunade seemed to remember something and suddenly asked, "King Owl, how do you know so much about Kakuzu's personality?" A hint of curiosity and doubt was revealed in her beautiful eyes.
Uchiha Kō was slightly taken aback by the question, then a faint smile appeared on his lips as he replied, "This is naturally thanks to the Black Market!"
From the moment I learned that he had accepted the bounty to capture me, I immediately sent people to the Black Market to gather all information about Kakuzu."
His tone was calm and confident, as if he had everything under control.
Then, Uchiha Kō paused briefly before continuing, "After some investigation, I discovered that Kakuzu is not only an absolute money-grubber, but also exceptionally skilled at making money. Wouldn't it be a huge loss for us if we couldn't make good use of such a rare talent?"
After saying this, a shrewd glint flashed in his eyes.
Tsunade nodded thoughtfully after hearing this, and replied softly, "Oh, I see!" She secretly admired Uchiha Kō's foresight.
And so, Uchiha Kō continued walking along the street, while Tsunade playfully stepped on his shadow, following his rhythm.
At this moment, her heart was filled with joy, feeling that the Tyrant was truly omniscient and omnipotent, and was incredibly amazing!
However, at that moment, Uchiha Kō stopped without warning and softly called out, "Tsunade."
Because it happened so suddenly, Tsunade had no time to react. She only heard a "ouch" as her forehead slammed into Uchiha Kō's sturdy back.
She rubbed her aching forehead with her hand and gave Uchiha Kō a reproachful look.
A hint of grievance appeared on her delicate face, her small, exquisite nose was slightly red from the impact, and her eyes quickly welled up with tears, as if they were about to fall at any moment.
Her rosy lips pouted unconsciously, and she complained with a hint of annoyance, "Lord Xiao, why did you suddenly stop! My nose hurts so much~"
Seeing this Uchiha Kō, standing to the side, scratched his head awkwardly, apologetic smile on his face, and said softly, "Sorry, Tsunade. I suddenly remembered something I forgot to do."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade had been somewhat angry, suddenly became interested, and her curiosity surged like a tide.
She blinked her beautiful, captivating eyes and eagerly asked, "What is it, Lord Xiao?" Her words revealed the liveliness and playfulness unique to young girls.
At this moment, Uchiha Kō slowly walked towards Tsunade. When he was only inches away from Tsunade, he suddenly stretched out an arm and braced it against the wall, pinning Tsunade against it.
Tsunade's face instantly turned bright red, and her heart pounded. She probably guessed what the Lord of the Owls was about to do next.
The atmosphere was unusually ambiguous, as if time itself had frozen.
Then Uchiha Kō pressed his lips to Tsunade's red lips!
Tsunade's eyes widened in disbelief. She hadn't expected Uchiha Kō to be so bold as to kiss her like that in the street!
She let out a muffled groan at first, then her jaw was pried open by Xiao, and the two of them kissed passionately.
A moment later, Uchiha Kō licked his lips and chuckled, "I just remembered, I haven't kissed you today! My fiancée!"
Tsunade's legs went a little weak. She glared at Uchiha Kō with annoyance. "There are so many people here! Aren't you afraid of being seen?!"
Uchiha Kō smiled, put his arm around Tsunade's waist, and Tsunade did not resist. The two walked towards home.
Senju Clan Compound
Senju Hashirama knelt on the washboard, feeling somewhat aggrieved. Why was he the only one punished, and not Madara? Didn't they both make the same mistake at the same time?
Uzumaki Mito narrowed her eyes. "Hashirama, are you blaming me?" After saying that, she slowly got up and walked towards Senju Hashirama.
Senju Hashirama was taken aback, then quickly shook his head. "How could I dare! Mito, you know me, I wouldn't lie!"
Uzumaki Mito chuckled. Hashirama was still as easily amused as ever. Just then, she suddenly sensed the arrival of Uchiha Kō and Tsunade outside the door.
She quickly said, "Get up now!" Then she pushed open the door and went out to greet her granddaughter and grandson-in-law!
Senju Hashirama nodded, then slowly rose and followed him out.
Uzumaki Mito arrived at the clan compound entrance first. She noticed that Tsunade's lips were slightly red and moist. As someone who had been through similar experiences, she understood what had happened. She smiled and said, "You two are back~ Come on in!"
Senju Hashirama also came out from the courtyard. "Oh, it's Owl! Come in and sit for a while!"
Uchiha Kō shook his head, looked at Mito, and smiled, "Grandma, I have some things to do next, so I'll send Tsunade back first!"
Uzumaki Mito expressed her understanding, and she pulled Tsunade's arm, smiling, "Don't worry about what you're doing, I'll watch over her here!"
"Grandma! Why are you siding with outsiders?!" Tsunade pouted. This is unfair!
"What do you mean by helping outsiders? You two are getting married in less than a month, then you'll all be family!" Uzumaki Mito said irritably.
Tsunade blushed, but didn't refute Uzumaki Mito's words. She pouted and looked at Uchiha Kō with concern.
"Be careful!" Tsunade suddenly said.
Uchiha Kō smiled and then hummed in agreement. He looked at Uzumaki Mito, "Grandma, you must have heard about my Great Grandfather's physical condition returning to its peak. Before I leave, I'll take care of everything for you."
After saying that, Uchiha Kō activated his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, applying the Immortality effect to Uzumaki Mito. Uzumaki Mito felt her body become lighter, and her face, which was originally slightly wrinkled, now became smooth and fair.
She opened her eyes, looked at Uchiha Kō, and smiled, "Thank you, Xiao ~"
Uchiha Kō waved his hand. "It's nothing, Grandma. Goodbye!"
"Okay, be careful on the road," Uzumaki Mito said with concern.
"Yes, if you can't beat them, you can call me!" Senju Hashirama laughed.
Uchiha Kō turned around, waved, and walked towards the village entrance.
Just now, he received news that Iwagakure wanted to ransom Roshi and had already arrived at the entrance of Konoha with money.
Uchiha Kō Flying Thunder God Technique to first bring Roshi out of the prison, and then headed to the entrance of Konoha.
I heard that Ōnoki himself is here this time! Therefore, Uchiha Kō must show his respect!
Village entrance
Ōnoki flew through the air, arms crossed, looking down at the Konoha ninja.
I had a fever of 38℃ last night, and my head is still spinning as I write this today.
