Calling Parents

Akashi Kishimoto didn't find calling parents funny.

However, he respected individual wishes; if they wanted to laugh, let them. Regardless, he decided he definitely needed a good talk with Mirai Uzumaki's guardians.

On the way home, Kushina Uzumaki looked worried. "What do we do, Mirai? Tsunade-nee and Mito-obaa-chan are definitely going to be furious."

"They wanted us to go to school to make friends, but we ended up hitting people and causing trouble. What do we do? What do we do? Mito-obaa-chan must be so disappointed in us!"

Mirai Uzumaki wasn't worried in the slightest. "Just tell me, were you happy when you saw them getting beaten up?"

"Well, I was happy, but..."

"That settles it. Don't worry, it's just calling parents; leave such a trivial matter to me, the great Mirai."

"Mirai..."

The two had come from the Land of Whirlpools and were temporarily staying at the Senju Clan Compound.

Although it was called a clan compound, only Mito Uzumaki, Tsunade, and Nawaki remained.

Adding the two Uzumakis made the place a bit livelier.

"We're home!" Upon returning to the compound, Kushina Uzumaki braced herself and forced a smile.

"Is that little Kushina and little Mirai? Come here to Grandma. Did you have fun at school today? Did you make any new friends?"

Mito Uzumaki was sunbathing in the courtyard, her expression kind.

"Of course I did, Mito-obaa-chan! My classmates are very enthusiastic; we hit it off right away!" Mirai Uzumaki said with a smile.

Mito-obaa-chan was getting on in years; she was better off staying home and sunbathing.

He prepared to find Tsunade to go to the school.

I mean, if the Princess of Konoha showed up in person, what parent would dare to nag?

And Akashi-sensei, I hope you can handle it.

"By the way, Grandma, where did Tsunade-nee go?"

"Hmph, she's lounging over there. She's been like that since she got back from Konoha Hospital." Mito was clearly dissatisfied with Tsunade's lazy demeanor.

Her granddaughter was good at everything; her talent and intuition were top-tier, but it was a pity she was so lazy.

Aside from treating patients, she wished she could just lounge around forever and never get up!

Oh, and gambling!

She was quite spirited when gambling.

It's all Hashirama's fault!

A wicked smirk hung on the corner of Mirai Uzumaki's mouth as he walked toward Tsunade, who was sprawled on the sofa.

Before he even got close, he could smell a strong scent of alcohol.

"Big Sis Tsunade!" He walked behind her with great perception and began massaging her shoulders.

"You must be exhausted after a day at the hospital, right?"

Tsunade stretched comfortably, her massive curves visible in front, leaving Mirai Uzumaki stunned; his hands nearly stopped moving.

In Tsunade's eyes, he and Kushina Uzumaki were just little kids, so she naturally didn't worry about such things.

Plus, Tsunade liked to wear clothes that showed off her figure, which gave Mirai a feast for the eyes.

If I can get my hands on something this big when I grow up, I'd be willing to marry Kushina!

"You brat, you're up to no good if you're being this attentive! Tell me, did you cause trouble at school?"

Tsunade didn't notice that the little brother in her eyes was already plotting against her.

"Hehe, nothing gets past you, Tsunade-nee."

"Today at school..."

Mirai Uzumaki added fuel to the fire, taking the opportunity to badmouth his classmates and Akashi Kishimoto.

Tsunade couldn't help but scratch her messy blonde hair as she listened.

Mirai Uzumaki immediately helped her massage her head with great initiative.

"So you two were mocked at school, and you couldn't help but hit them? And then you were told to call your parents?"

Tsunade was very fired up now.

"Who told you to call your parents?"

"It's just a fight; I've been fighting since I was a kid, and I've never seen anyone tell me to call my parents!"

Nonsense, who would dare tell Princess Tsunade to call her parents? Did they not want to live in Konoha anymore?

"It was Akashi Kishimoto-sensei! You should teach him a lesson when you go, Tsunade-nee!"

"He kept talking on the podium all day. Everyone was already quiet, but he was just so noisy."

Tsunade paused, feeling like her train of thought was interrupted.

"You little brat..."

"Fine, tomorrow, right? I'll go and settle the score for you myself!"

"I want to see who in Konoha I wouldn't dare hit!"

"Tsunade-nee is mighty and imposing!" Mirai Uzumaki buttered her up.

The next day, in Akashi Kishimoto's office.

A group of parents were chattering away, making Akashi Kishimoto's head ache.

"My son told me when he got home that he was hit at school, and with ninjutsu, no less!"

"They just said a few wrong words and were tied up and beaten. Is there any justice left? Is there any law?"

"Punish them! They must be punished! No one is getting out of this!"

"They hit someone from the Shimura Clan and want to run? Baka yaro!"

Akashi Kishimoto broke into a cold sweat.

"Please, everyone, be quiet! I invited everyone here today mainly to mediate..."

"Mediate? Mediate my foot! You must hand over the culprit who hit them. I want to see who is arrogant enough to commit violence in Konoha!"

"Konoha doesn't allow such arrogant people to exist!"

"Bang—"

The office door was suddenly kicked open.

"Who the hell kicked that..."

Tsunade walked into the office with an indifferent expression.

The parents were stunned instantly.

The room fell deathly silent!

Princess Tsunade, the Princess of Konoha, and also the most powerful medical ninja in the entire ninja world!

Even children could recognize her!

The Shimura clansman who had been cursing a moment ago immediately shut his mouth, as if he hadn't been the one venting just seconds prior.

Akashi Kishimoto's cold sweat dripped down. "So it is Princess Tsunade who has graced us with her presence. I wonder..."

"Are you the one who told Mirai Uzumaki to call his parents? I'm here now. Whatever crap you have to say, spit it out quickly; don't keep me from going to get a drink." Tsunade slapped her hand onto the table.

A tumultuous wave surged instantly.

Akashi Kishimoto's vision went dark; he almost collapsed.

He began to wonder if he hadn't checked the calendar before leaving the house.

The guardian behind Mirai Uzumaki was actually Princess Tsunade!

"And you lot!" Tsunade didn't care who was a teacher; she pointed at the group of parents.

"Bullying my little brother and sister in the classroom—a beating is getting off lightly! This isn't over today!"

"If this isn't handled before school ends, I'll block the school gate myself and beat them every time I see them! Do you hear me!"

Although Tsunade had not yet become one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha.

In terms of status, she didn't even have to give the Third Hokage face.

"Yes!"

As for the parents, they didn't dare say a word from the moment Tsunade entered the room.

Apologize? Punish them?

Now they just wanted to beg for mercy!

"Hmph—"

Tsunade let out a cold snort and slammed the door as she left.

This trivial matter wasn't worth wasting too much time on; she was in a hurry to get a drink, and after drinking, she would go gamble a few rounds, as her salary had just arrived.

She felt uncomfortable if she didn't gamble it all away.

Only after she left did everyone in the office breathe a sigh of relief.

They looked at one another, then dispersed with miserable faces.

At the school gate.

"I think I just saw Lady Tsunade." Minato's tone carried reverence.

Princess Tsunade was incredibly famous in Konoha.

She was an idol to many.

Mirai Uzumaki thought to himself—Seeing her is nothing; I even touched her last night!

Because of Minato's righteous words yesterday, even though they hadn't been useful, he had become friends with Mirai and Kushina.

He could hang out with the two of them for the time being.
