Mei Terumi's slender fingers made a cracking sound as she 'gently' placed them on Naoki Senju's shoulders, kneading them with all her might.
It seemed as if this would bring unbearable pain to Naoki Senju, but Mei Terumi didn't know that massage should be done with as much force as possible. Mei Terumi's vigorous 'revenge' was actually a pleasure for Naoki Senju.
"Hmm, little maid did a good job. Now, let's massage your legs." Naoki Senju closed his eyes, enjoying the service from Mei Terumi —a double pleasure for both his body and mind.
Mei Terumi simply pretended not to hear and continued to squeeze Naoki Senju's shoulders with all her might. She was the Mizukage of Kirigakure, how could she be ordered around by Naoki Senju?
Naoki Senju wasn't in a hurry. He was content to enjoy Mei Terumi's service. There was plenty of time. He could train her slowly. Mei Terumi was willing to massage him today, he could unlock new service play tomorrow. Sooner or later Mei Terumi would willingly submit to him.
However, Mei Terumi's patience was clearly lacking. After only a dozen minutes, she stopped impatiently, sliding her fingers down Naoki Senju's neck to his cheek, and then scraping his face with her Naoki Senju -clear nails.
"Why must you keep me in Konoha? If you're willing to let me go back, I can arrange for you to choose a few young and beautiful female ninjas from the Kirigakure Ninja. Not just as maids, but even something more is possible~"
Mei Terumi's provocative and seductive words did not sway Naoki Senju in the slightest. How could an ordinary female ninja compare to Mei Terumi? Moreover, his purpose was not based on superficial primal desires.
"What if I want to take things further with the maid Mei Terumi?"
Mei Terumi's ever-smiling face instantly turned cold, and she stopped teasing Naoki Senju. She walked up to Naoki Senju and looked him straight in the eye.
" Naoki Senju, I'm very curious about your true purpose. If it's for the sake of Kirigakure, why did you release the Kirigakure Ninja back to Kirigakure? If it's to win the war, you could have easily used me, the Mizukage, to make the Kirigakure Ninja fight for Konoha. But you don't seem to have any of these intentions?"
Mei Terumi is very suspicious, or rather, in the completely unfamiliar Konoha, she cannot afford to relax her vigilance Mei Terumi for a moment.
Naoki Senju calmly straightened his clothes, got up and walked to the window. Mei Terumi closely behind him, eager to know what Naoki Senju's purpose was.
"Do you see the Konoha outside the window?"
Mei Terumi also turned her gaze to look. People were coming and going on the street, carrying materials needed to rebuild Konoha. Although Konoha was larger and more prosperous than Kirigakure, it was still somewhat dilapidated after the war.
But every Konoha's face was filled with hope for tomorrow... Could this be what Naoki Senju wanted to express?
" Konoha is indeed more vibrant than Kirigakure, but is your purpose merely to show off?"
"Of course not." Naoki Senju pointed to the border of Konoha, indicating that that was where Mei Terumi.
" Konoha has been established for sixty years. In these sixty years, it has experienced three Shinobi World Wars, not to mention countless other smaller battles, such as the siege of Konoha that you planned this time."
Naoki Senju deliberately brought up the matter, making Mei Terumi away somewhat embarrassed. If the plan had succeeded, it would have been fine, but the plan that she personally planned and executed had been a complete failure.
Iwagakure turned around and betrayed Kumogakure. Kumogakure did nothing but try to take advantage of the situation. Kirigakure seemed to have seized the best opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Konoha, but they also lost completely.
Even the Mizukage herself was captured, Mei Terumi was naturally too embarrassed to mention this plan.
"Although we've been through many wars, Konoha has gained very little from them. We've only been wasting our excess strength. The expansion of Konoha has been negligible, and the number of ninjas has remained stagnant. Haven't you ever thought about changing all of this?"
Naoki Senju's words plunged Mei Terumi into deep thought: change the ninja? Expand Konoha and thus alter the balance of power among the Five Great Shinobi Villages?
Mei Terumi calls herself a reformer, all she truly wants to change is Kirigakure). Comparing the two, the difference in their abilities seems obvious...
"So, your goal is to unite with Kirigakure? But don't you think what you're doing is a bit redundant and detrimental to the cooperation between Konoha and Kirigakure?" Mei Terumi looked at her maid dress and said with some annoyance.
Redundant? Only in this way can we achieve true 'cooperation'... Naoki Senju ignored Mei Terumi's complaints. Anyway, she couldn't take it off now, so it didn't matter if she wore it for a while longer.
"No, cooperation is one thing, but the fact remains that Kirigakure invaded Konoha. Does the Lord Mizukage intend to leave Konoha unscathed? Konoha's losses need to be borne by someone, and an apology is required. Does the Lord Mizukage intend to find a different way to apologize?"
What about something else? Money... Forget it, Kirigakure itself is dirt poor, and resources... The Land of Water's mineral resources can't compare to the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning. The only thing that can be considered a precious resource seems to be seafood...
Using salted fish as an apology... Mei Terumi abandoned the idea that would be a laughing stock.
"We need to set a time limit, otherwise I'll have to be a maid for the rest of my life?"
"Wasn't the deadline already agreed upon? If Lord Mizukage is willing to be a maid for one day, thirty Kirigakure Ninja will be released. Once all the Kirigakure Ninja have left Konoha, Lord Mizukage can leave as he pleases."
Mei Terumi recalled the Kirigakure Ninja participated in the attack on Konoha: thirty people a day. It seemed that they only needed to endure humiliation for a month at most before they could leave Konoha...
"Okay, I accept your terms."
Mei Terumi unknowingly stepped into Naoki Senju's trap, because she didn't think Naoki Senju would resort to any more tricks, after all, Konoha would still need to cooperate with Kirigakure to deal with the other Three Great Shinobi Villages in the future.
" Naoki, how is Mei Terumi doing?"
Tsunade's voice came from outside. After completing the most basic statistical work, Tsunade rushed back to the Hokage Building.
What was urging Tsunade wasn't her Hokage duties, but rather Naoki Senju and Mei Terumi, who were in the same room. Although Mei Terumi was destined to have Cursed Seal placed on her, what if Naoki Senju was bewitched by the Mei Terumi spirit and couldn't bring himself to do it?
We have to be careful...
But when she pushed open the door and saw Mei Terumi wearing that familiar maid outfit, Tsunade's pretty face first turned slightly red, since that outfit was only worn on those kinds of occasions. But then, Tsunade's mischievous side came to mind.
If I remember correctly, Naoki Senju said that this outfit was something only maids would wear, but Mei Terumi willingly wore it, which means...
"Maid over there, come and massage my shoulders. I'm exhausted after working all morning."
