Chapter 73 The sweet nectar

Tsunade didn't dare to meet Natsume's eyes at this time.

She raised her chin slightly and looked at the sky, pretending to be thoughtful.

"Well, let me think about it, what reward should I give you?"

"It must be a big reward!"

Natsume emphasized the word 'big'. It was a rare opportunity, but she couldn't let it go.

"You guys have learned how to bargain?"

When Tsunade heard this, she couldn't help but smile and pinched his little face out of habit.

"Where is it?"

Natsume grabbed her advantageous hand, and in turn, scratched her palm and said, "This is a legitimate request."

"It's a little itchy."

Tsunade's body trembled, and she subconsciously withdrew and said, "I have already thought of the reward, let you go to Shigu Forest to practice the sage mode."

"...?"

Natsume's eyes widened.

Is this a reward?

Bad woman, you don’t mean what you say!

Tsunade noticed his expression and subconsciously felt guilty.

It is indeed too much to deceive a child.

"While practicing the immortal mode, it should be the same as when you helped your sister solve her anemia."

As she watched, she suddenly spoke out of nowhere.

Before, it was Natsume who helped her practice.

Now, it's the other way around.

In other words, continue to be a pillow.

After Tsunade said this, she felt a little regretful, but for some reason, anticipation emerged.

Maybe this was what she was thinking deep down.

"Okay, let's go back."

Tsunade suppressed her inner panic and walked outside.

Natsume quickly followed.

After returning home, Tsunade regained her composure and said, "Tomorrow I will take you to see Slug Sage."

In the original work, the sage modes of Miaomu Mountain and Ryūchi Cave are explained in more detail.

But there is no immortal mode in Shigulin.

Neither the cultivation methods nor the magic techniques were mentioned.

It is not clear whether Senju Hashirama's sage mode and the celestial arts he uses come from Shigun Forest.

Because he had never channeled a slug.

Now Natsume can find out for herself.

Today's dinner was quite sumptuous.

In order to celebrate Natsume becoming a chuunin, Shizune specially added two dishes.

Over the years, her cooking skills have gotten better and better.

Natsume was quite satisfied with the meal.

Night falls.

After taking a bath, Tsunade lay on the tatami, unable to sleep and falling into insomnia.

She was thinking about what happened during the day, why did she accidentally say something like that?

I don’t know, I thought I was... At this moment, there was a noise not far away.

It sounded like a door being opened.

Is there a thief?

Which little thief is so rampant?

Dare you go to my mother's room?

Tsunade was feeling very angry.

But when she stood up fiercely, she saw Natsume.

The expression on her face turned into confusion, and she asked in a gentle tone: "Can't you sleep?"

"Sister, you can't forget what you just said this afternoon, right?"

Natsume got into bed feeling at ease, and was immediately surrounded by warmth accompanied by a delicate fragrance.

Tsunade realized it was too late.

Her bright brown eyes looked at the cat-like Natsume, and she suddenly felt soft in her heart.

Tsunade pulled the sheets to make sure he wouldn't be cold before closing her eyes.

I don’t know why, but the insomnia I had just seemed to disappear.

She listened to the steady breathing not far away, and soon relaxed her body and fell into sleep.

Sure enough, I am more accustomed to it.

midnight.

Natsume suddenly woke up.

Tsunade doesn't sleep well.

The golden hair swept back and forth on his face, bringing a slight chill.

But that wasn't what frightened him.

Natsume opened his eyes and saw her nibbling on his fingertips.

Maybe it was a sweet dream, there was a faint smile on her delicate face.

What did you do with my fingers?

It must not be something to eat.

Wait a minute, if you take one bite, I won't be able to resist it, and I will turn into a nine-fingered beggar.

Just a nice touch.

warm.

Natsume thought of the Jade Emperor's emoticon from "Journey to the West".

Don't worry about her.

He closed his eyes again.

But not long after, he woke up again.

He and Tsunade were so close that their noses were almost touching.

When breathing, he could clearly feel Tsunade's breath hitting his face, which was a little itchy.

Natsume seemed to have fallen into a warm bed, or was entangled by an octopus.

Two words are clearly conveyed throughout the whole body, voluptuous.

He was surrounded, and there were all Tsunade outside.

But he couldn't stop because he couldn't make a move.

Natsume looked at the sleeping face in front of him and couldn't help but be in a trance.

Under the faint moonlight, it seems like a midnight epiphyllum blooming with unique beauty.

What should we do at this time?

Didn't Tsunade always think that she was an adult?

It is tolerable, but what is unbearable!

Natsume leaned forward slightly, tasting the sweet nectar.

After a few seconds, he licked his lips, which seemed to still smell good.

Good night.

Natsume got into her arms and fell asleep slowly in the comforting breath.

It's just that he didn't notice the crimson and moving face in the night.

Tsunade slowly opened her eyes.

There was shyness and confusion in her eyes.

It can obviously be pushed away.

Why wasn't it rejected?

Tsunade bit her cherry lips lightly, and after a moment, she sighed quietly.

How wonderful it would be if I were twenty years younger.

A night of silence.

Natsume crawled out of bed with difficulty.

Tsunade was also awakened by his scurrying around.

She stretched, meowed sleepily like a cat, and exposed her smooth, fat-free belly.

"Good morning, sister."

Natsume greeted with a smile.

Tsunade's eyes immediately widened as she suddenly realized what happened last night and suddenly woke up.

"morning."

She quickly regained her composure.

After so many years, I haven’t seen any big storms, how could I still fall into the hands of a little kid?

"I'm going to take a shower."

Natsume opened the door and left the room.

Tsunade stayed for a few seconds, came to her senses, put on her coat, tied her twintails, walked a few steps, then turned back to pick up the necklace on the bedside table and put it on.

This is Natsume's gift to her.

Except for sleeping, he never leaves his body.

Shizune is already in the kitchen.

Tsunade said hello and entered the bathroom.

She looked at the toothbrush filled with toothpaste and the water glass filled with warm water in front of her, and couldn't help but smile.

Why are you so skilled?

I don’t know how many little girls will be harmed by you in the future.

Tsunade picked up her toothbrush and water glass.

Breakfast is over.

"Shizune, I'll take Natsume to Shigun Forest. If there's anything urgent, ask Slug to notify me."

Tsunade actually wanted Shizune and Kabuto Yakushi to tag along.

But they are relatively young, and in terms of chakra alone, they are far inferior to Natsume.
