Chapter 202 Getting closer to Tsunade (Part 3, Part 4)
The task of black hoeing Thunder Fang has to be done, but the task of Weixiang Insect cannot be given up.
After all, Class 8 has already taken over the mission.
If they don't do it, it will affect their ninja resume.
And the microbes are actually pretty good.
It has a sense of smell that is a thousand times better than that of a ninja dog, making it a perfect fit for the Aburame clan.
Cultivate a few more, they will be useful at critical moments.
The Kingdom of Sichuan is located between the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Wind.
At the normal speed of a ninja, it would take two days.
Aburame Shiki could use Jinxia Gu to fly them there, but he didn't.
It's a rare trip with Tsunade, so there's no need to rush, just treat it as a trip.
"Shino and Akamaru, the investigation task will be left to you."
After leaving the Death Forest, Aburame Shiki ordered.
"Woof woof woof!"
Akamaru answered energetically.
"..."
Aburame Shino hesitated to speak, and finally nodded.
Although it was true that he and Akamaru were on the reconnaissance mission of Team 8, it was strange coming from Shiki Aburame's mouth.
He stretched out his hand, and several parasites flew out of his sleeves and flew around.
Akamaru jumped out of Inuzuka Kiba's arms and sniffed as he walked.
Because they needed to conduct reconnaissance, Shino Aburame and Kiba Inuzuka were at the opposite ends of the team, one behind the other.
In the middle are Aburame Shiki, Tsunade and Hinata Hinata side by side.
"Is Black Hoe Thunder Tooth's gold mine related to the Kingdom of Sichuan?"
Tsunade suddenly thought of something and asked.
"No."
Aburame Shiki shook his head and said.
"That's good."
Tsunade raised her lips slightly and asked, "Hokage-sama, what is my reward?"
"You want a gold mine?"
Aburame Shiki noticed the smile on her face and couldn't help but ask.
"I still understand the rules. The gold mine should be handed over to Konoha."
Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I mean it literally."
Aburame Zhihui was a little surprised.
How can you be so content?
Not quite like Tsunade.
But if you think about it, besides drinking and gambling, she is actually a good ninja.
"Ten million for you!"
Aburame Zhihui waved her hand and said proudly.
"make a deal!"
Tsunade's eyes lit up.
Although this kid is annoying sometimes, it is still very refreshing to give him money.
Aburame Shiki couldn't help but smile.
This money obsessed look is quite cute.
Tsunade glanced at his expression and suddenly felt panicked.
She was not a fool, and the emotions she showed were obviously wrong, at least not for a teacher or student.
Tsunade subconsciously glanced at Hinata Hinata next to her.
She walked quietly and obediently.
"You stay away from me."
Tsunade grabbed Hinata Hinata's hand and said, "Let's go to the front and have a chat."
"...?"
Aburame Shiki looked confused.
Hinata Hinata also looked at her blankly.
Although Tsunade is Aburame Shiki's teacher and Hinata Hanabi's teacher, she has little contact with her on weekdays.
What to talk about with her?
But she didn't dare to refuse and nodded in agreement.
Aburame Shiki scratched his head.
Why was he excluded?
Although women's friendship comes quickly, their identities and ages are far apart, so it is impossible for them to become friends forever.
"elder brother."
Shino Aburame took two steps forward and shouted.
"Is there a situation?"
Aburame Shiki came to his senses and asked.
"No."
Shino Aburame asked curiously, "What is that S-class mission?"
Aburame Shiki looked at Tsunade and Hyuga Hinata who were already talking in front of them, and it was obvious that he didn't want to interrupt.
He had nothing to do, so he told Aburame Shino about the Black Hoe Raiga.
"Can I fight with him alone then?"
Aburame Shino stated her request.
"You want to try immortal mode?"
Aburame Shiki quickly reacted, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay."
Although the purpose of his trip is to gain reputation, it does not necessarily require him to take action.
When word gets out, it will be enough for the new Hokage to lead the team to kill Black Hoe Raiga.
Besides, even if he didn't have any reputation, there was still Orochimaru waiting for him.
"Thank you, brother."
Aburame Shino's face suddenly showed anticipation.
After he finished speaking, he went to the back of the team to investigate the surrounding situation.
Shiki Aburame followed behind Tsunade and Hinata Hinata.
He thought they would finish chatting soon, but it didn't happen.
It didn't end until the sun went down and they entered the country of Sichuan.
"Have a rest here for the night."
Tsunade looked around and said.
This is a forest with a stream not far away, which is very suitable for camping.
"I'll cook."
Aburame Shiki ordered, "Ya, go set up the tent; Shino, check the surroundings."
Under normal circumstances, ninjas would not light a fire outside to avoid accidents that would affect the mission.
But now that the two Hokages were present, there was no need to be so cautious.
Tsunade was still a little hesitant, but after seeing Shiki Aburame bringing out a lot of ingredients, she didn't say anything else.
Why eat cold lunch boxes when you can have delicious hot food?
"Zhihui-kun, what can I do?"
Seeing that she had nothing to do, Hyuga Hinata took the initiative to ask.
She wasn't Tsunade, so she couldn't be so at ease.
"What did you talk about to my teacher?"
Aburame Shiki lowered his voice and asked.
"I just talked about some things about Zhihui-kun."
Hinata's face turned red, and she asked in a panic, "Is... shouldn't I say it?"
"fine."
Aburame Shiki said with a smile, "Whatever you say."
"I'm going to the river."
Tsunade curled her lips and said suddenly.
After a while, a bang was heard.
"Hinata, help me wash the vegetables."
Aburame Zhihui stood up and said, "I'm going to see what's going on."
"Um."
Hinata nodded.
When Aburame Shiki arrived at the river, she finally knew what the noise was about.
Tsunade rolled up her trousers and stood barefoot in the river.
When a fish came over, she punched it, knocked it unconscious, and threw it on the shore.
"What are you here for?"
Tsunade noticed him and asked calmly.
"Teacher, something seems wrong with you."
A smile appeared on Aburame Zhihui's face, and there was a hint of pride in his tone.
"I am normal."
Tsunade paused, then clenched her fist and smashed it into the river.
With a dull sound, the river splashed in all directions.
However, before he touched her, he was blocked by the outflow of chakra, preventing Aburame Shiki from feasting his eyes.
"then!"
Tsunade swung hard.
The fish flew out like a kunai.
Shiki Aburame grabbed it casually.
It was so powerful that he suspected Tsunade wanted to assassinate him.
[Achieve Tsunade's achievement of "Frozen Tilapia" and receive the reward Vine Claw Gu. 】
[Vine Claw Gu: Level 4 Gu. After use, the hands turn into wood roots and the fingers turn into wisteria, like snakes and whips. 】
Aburame Zhihui looked at the words that appeared in front of her eyes and was speechless for a while.
What kind of strange achievement is this?
But the rewards are pretty good.
When used in conjunction with the Hundred Years Wood Charm, it becomes even more effective in disguised as Wood Release.
"Teacher, do you want to eat baked or boiled?"
Aburame Shiki asked with a smile on his face.
"baked."
Tsunade was silent for two seconds and said.
"It seems that everything is over."
Aburame Shiki noticed that her strength was back to normal.
Two people, you throw it and I catch it, and soon there is a bucket full.
"teacher."
Aburame Zhihui stood by the river and stretched out her hand, saying, "Come up, there are no fish nearby."
Tsunade glanced at him and took his hand.
She lifted her feet from the water, stepped on her high-heeled sandals, and with a little effort, she left the river.
"I'll wipe it for you."
Aburame Zhihui took out a towel from Cangkong Gu.
Tsunade looked at him, her expression gradually softening.
"Put your feet up."
Aburame Shiki said after wiping her calves and ankles.
Tsunade lifted her jade feet, and the water droplets slid down her fair skin.
Aburame Zhihui wrapped it in a towel and rubbed it slowly.
"Thanks."
Tsunade said as she put on her high-heeled sandals.
"nothing."
Aburame Shiki said nonchalantly.
He put away the towel and was about to stand up when suddenly there was a shadow in front of his eyes.
Tsunade bent down, kissed him on the forehead, and walked towards the camp as if nothing happened.
"Wait for me!"
Aburame Zhihui was stunned for a moment, then followed him with a bucket.
When we arrived at the camp, the tents had already been set up.
Inuzuka Kiba prepared four tents.
If Class 8 is usually out on missions, there are only two.
One for Hinata Hinata, one for Yamato, Aburame Shino and him.
But there are two more hats today, and naturally they belong to Aburame Shiki and Tsunade.
They have a distinguished status as the former Hokage and the current Hokage, so it would be inappropriate to be crowded together with them.
"Shino, put the barbecue grill on the fire and let's have barbecue tonight."
Aburame Shiki put down the bucket.
"So many fish?"
Inuzuka Kiba asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Woof woof woof!"
Akamaru became excited.
It can make a full meal.
"The teacher caught him."
Aburame Shiki looked at Tsunade.
"nothing."
Tsunade gave him a faint smile and said, "I'm waiting for your grilled fish."
"Guaranteed to satisfy you."
Shiki Aburame took out his tools and started processing the fish.
Tsunade sat on the blanket not far away and looked at him quietly.
Half an hour later, the fragrance spread all around.
"for you."
Aburame Shiki took out a bottle of nectar and said.
"No drinking during the mission."
Tsunade took it and put it away.
"Everyone, let's eat."
Aburame Shiki said in greeting.
Hinata swallowed and took a skewer of grilled fish from his hand.
She took a bite and felt excited.
Zhihui-kun’s grilled fish is still delicious!
The night is darker.
The moon rises.
Aburame Zhihui was lying on the bed, somewhat unable to sleep.
He thought about Tsunade's kiss before.
But unfortunately it's the forehead.
Aburame Zhihui suddenly felt something in her heart.
Why don't you go next door and have a look?
I wonder if Tsunade is asleep.
Aburame Zhihui hesitated for a few seconds, then stood up and left the tent.
He glanced at the tent on the left, which belonged to Hinata Hinata.
The tent was opaque, so he couldn't see clearly.
But with Hinata's character, if he ran in, she would be so embarrassed that she would faint.
"Kid!"
A sudden voice sounded.
Aburame Zhihui was stunned subconsciously.
This is Tsunade.
She didn't sleep either.
"I'm coming in, teacher."
Aburame Zhihui said hello, opened the door and walked into the tent.
Tsunade was already lying in her sleeping bag.
The sleeping bag was chained from bottom to top, with only the head exposed.
She looked like a silkworm baby.
"If you don't sleep, what are you doing outside?"
Tsunade asked.
Aburame Shiki stepped forward and lay down next to her.
"..."
Tsunade looked at him, feeling a little panicked for no reason.
In this late night, there is a man and a woman alone, and the atmosphere seems ambiguous.
She quickly looked away.
"I was thinking about what you were doing by the river."
Aburame Shiki said with a smile.
"I can do whatever I want."
Tsunade was not used to such strange conversations. She glared at him and said, "There is still a mission tomorrow, don't talk nonsense here, go and rest!"
"Can I sleep here?"
Aburame Shiki asked, taking the next step.
"no!"
Tsunade didn't want to answer.
"Why?"
Aburame Zhihui blinked and asked, "It's just a sleeping bag. Are you afraid, Teacher?"
"What am I afraid of?"
Tsunade snorted softly and said, "You can sleep if you want, but don't disturb me, otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
After saying that, she closed her eyes.
"Thank you, teacher."
Shiki Aburame took out his sleeping bag and got into it.
He moved his body so that he was next to Tsunade.
"..."
Tsunade opened her eyes and saw the handsome face of Aburame Shiki.
His expression was calm, as if he had fallen asleep.
Tsunade pursed her lips and just stared at him.
A feeling that I had never felt before came to my heart.
Although she didn't want to admit it, she did have emotions different from those before.
What a... damn brat!
Tsunade sighed.
The surroundings became quiet, with only the occasional chirping of insects and birds.
Tsunade reached out her hand and gently touched Aburame Shiki's head twice.
Just when she was about to take it back, she was caught.
"teacher."
Aburame Shiki asked with a smile, "What does this mean?"
"Let go and sleep."
Tsunade said with a straight face.
She would never admit what she had just done.
"Well……"
Tsunade looked at Aburame Shiki who suddenly came forward and couldn't help but tremble.
But she quickly softened, with a faint blur in her eyes.
"pain!"
Aburame Shiki took a deep breath.
How to kiss well and get bitten on the lip?
"asshole!"
Tsunade blushed and spat, "I told you to disturb my sleep, the consequences will be serious!"
She said and kicked him out.
Aburame Shiki and her sleeping bag rolled to the edge of the tent.
"Right there!"
Tsunade gritted her teeth and said, "Don't come here!"
"yes!"
Aburame Zhihui took advantage and naturally obeyed.
But as time passed, he moved some distance towards Tsunade.
"..."
Tsunade glanced at him and closed her eyes again.
In the quiet night, only the steady breathing of the two people and the sound of their heartbeats getting closer and closer.
Early the next morning.
Tsunade woke up.
What caught her eye was Aburame Zhihui's smiling face, and she couldn't help but feel her heart tremble.
"good morning teacher."
Aburame Shiki greeted.
"You go back to your tent."
Tsunade glanced at him and said.
If it was seen by Class 8 outside, it would be hard to explain.
"OK."
Aburame Zhihui put away her sleeping bag and left.
He had the same concerns.
Tsunade let out a breath.
She sat up and patted her cheek.
Thinking of what happened last night, she couldn't help biting her lower lip.
Two in one.
