Chapter 205 Love Rival

Richard stood up and followed Tsunade out of the Hokage's office.

Soon, they left the building and headed towards the Kabukicho area.

On the way to Kabukicho District, Tsunade frowned and said, "I checked Kakashi this afternoon. His condition is a bit bad. He will probably stay in bed for a month."

"This is normal. Uchiha Itachi's Tsukuyomi is definitely the most powerful mental attack in terms of illusion."

"It's already pretty good that Kakashi survived after being hit by Tsukuyomi."

Richard replied.

Although Itachi didn't seem to hold back at all, he knew that Itachi still held back.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Kakashi to survive after being hit by Tsukuyomi.

Apart from anything else, as long as Itachi tortures Kakashi in the Tsukuyomi space for a longer period of time, Kakashi's spirit will die due to being unable to bear the severe pain.

When Kakashi's spirit dies, his body will die as well.

"I heard from Sai that when you fought with Uchiha Itachi, you pointed out that Tsukuyomi cannot affect people whose spirit and will exceed the caster's."

"How strong a spirit and will do you need to resist his Tsukuyomi?"

Tsunade asked immediately.

"Immune Tsukuyomi with your spirit and will. Currently, only I can do it, so you don't need to consider this method."

"Don't look at me, who usually looks like I'm just slacking off and doing nothing. My spirit and will are stronger than anyone you know."

Richard said with a serious face.

He told the truth.

But Tsunade immediately gave him a bragging eye roll.

She did not deny that Richard was very strong, much stronger than herself and Jiraiya.

But she still didn't think Richard was better than anyone she knew.

In her opinion, the spirit and will of the first Hokage Hashirama were definitely not inferior to Richard's.

Although Tsunade just gave Richard a bragging eye roll, but combined with Tsunade's appearance and figure, her eye roll would still give people a charming feeling.

Even if she rolls her eyes, the eye rolls of beautiful women are much prettier than those of ordinary women.

"Besides You, who else in the village do you think can defeat Itachi Uchiha in a one-on-one situation?"

Tsunade immediately changed the topic and asked with a frown.

Tsunade wouldn't be too surprised if Kakashi lost to Itachi.

After all, Uchiha Itachi already had the strength of an elite Jonin before he "defected" Konoha.

But the problem now is that Kakashi was defeated by Itachi in an instant.

For Tsunade, who is the fifth Hokage, this is a very difficult thing.

"You and Jiraiya should both be able to defeat him."

"However, whether it can be done depends on the actual situation."

"Besides you, Kai can too."

"If your probability of defeating Itachi is only 50%, then Kai's probability of defeating him is 100%."

Richard said with a serious face.

After hearing his answer, Tsunade immediately showed a surprised expression.

"Is the Eight Gate Dunjia so strong?"

Tsunade asked.

"have!"

"When Kai opens the eighth door of death and enters a state called the 'Eight Gate Armor Formation', his strength will far exceed that of the Five Shadows."

"However, after opening the eighth door of death, he will also die."

"Unless someone can immediately treat him as his life force is burned out."

Richard said slowly.

Apart from Kai himself, he should be the only person in Konoha who knows how terrifying Kai's strength is.

Not to mention Uchiha Itachi, even Uchiha Madara, who became the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, was almost kicked out of the finale by Kai.

In other words, if Kai's "Ye Kai" kicks Uchiha Madara in the head instead of in the heart, then Uchiha Madara will have little chance to say that classic line.

"In terms of physical skills, among those who have fought against me, no one is better than you. I, Madara, would like to call you the strongest!"

When Richard finished speaking, Tsunade said slowly: "Although I have not practiced the Eight Gate Dun Armor, I have also read the Eight Gate Dun Armor in the Book of Sealings, and I know that you will die after opening the eighth door of death."

"You have even mastered the art of Flying Thunder God, and you must have learned the Eight Gate Dunjia as well."

"If you open the eighth door of death, will you die too?"

Richard turned to look at Tsunade, smiled and said, "Do you really want me to die?"

"No, just curious."

Tsunade replied immediately.

"Since you want to know so much, I'll tell you."

"The answer is no!"

"My vitality and spirit are far beyond your imagination."

"The eighth door of death cannot save my life."

Richard said to Tsunade.

Although he had never used the Eight Gate Dun Armor in battle, not long after he learned the Eight Gate Dun Armor, he found an opportunity to experience the full power of the Eight Gate Dun Armor, opened the Eight Gate of Death, and used the Eight Gate Dun Armor to The secret meaning "Ye Kai" was displayed.

After using "Ye Kai", he only consumed a small part of his vitality and felt a little tired, but did not show any other symptoms.

"Have you opened the eighth door of death?"

Tsunade looked at Richard with surprise and asked quickly.

"Yes."

"Like you, I have been curious about this issue before, so I deliberately opened the eighth door of death to experience it."

Richard said slowly.

madman!

After hearing Richard's answer, Tsunade immediately complained in her heart.

Just out of curiosity, I deliberately opened the eighth door of death.

Apart from madman, Tsunade couldn't think of any other words to describe Richard.

After silently complaining about Richard in her heart, Tsunade did not continue the topic and complained to him about her troubles after becoming Hokage.

For example, what helpless things have happened in the village recently, what requests did Mito Kadeni and Koharu and other high-level officials make to her, and it has been a long time since she went to the casino to gamble happily, etc.

Richard patiently acted as a listener, and he and Tsunade complained about Mito Monobu and others.

Before they knew it, they came to the Kabukicho area.

In front of an izakaya, they saw Jiraiya who had arrived at the izakaya in advance.

Compared to three years ago, Jiraiya looked unchanged.

Although he doesn't have the Yin Seal like Tsunade, three years has not made him look any older.

After seeing Richard and Tsunade walking towards him together, a trace of displeasure flashed across Jiraiya's face.

He had thought that tonight would be the night that he and Tsunade would be alone.

It turns out that he thought too much.

"Don't you have to accompany that purple-haired girl?"

When Richard and Tsunade came to him, Jiraiya immediately said to Richard.

Although Uozuki Xiyan is not too young, she is already twenty-five years old, but Jiraiya, who is over fifty, has no problem calling her a little girl.

"Xi Yan left the village to perform a mission."

Richard saw the flash of displeasure on Jiraiya's face and said slowly.

Just when Jiraiya was about to continue saying something, Tsunade's voice rang out.

"How have you been during your three years outside?"

Tsunade said to Jiraiya.

"It's not bad, Naruto is a very upbeat guy."

Jiraiya quickly replied.

"Stop talking about this, let's talk about it after we go in."

After saying that, Tsunade entered the izakaya first.

Jiraiya didn't hesitate at all and followed Tsunade in.

After they all entered, Richard entered the izakaya leisurely.

After entering the izakaya, Tsunade chose a table by the window and sat down.

Jiraiya came to Tsunade and planned to sit next to Tsunade.

However, before he sat down, Tsunade pointed to the opposite side and said, "Are you sitting opposite?"

"I don't want to sit across from you."

Jiraiya replied immediately.

"Then I'll sit across from you."

After hearing Jiraiya's answer, Tsunade stood up and prepared to sit across from him.

"No, I'll just sit across from you."

After saying that, Jiraiya turned to glare at Richard and said to him, "Sit with me."

"I can sit wherever I want."

Richard replied.

"No, you sit with me."

Tsuna pointed to the seat next to him.

Richard looked at Jiraiya, who was trying to hint at him with his eyes, and Tsunade, who was expressionless and calm, and sighed helplessly.

Finally, with Jiraiya watching, he sat down next to Tsunade.

Although he didn't know why Tsunade made him sit next to her, one thing he was sure of was that Jiraiya began to dislike him less and less.

Jiraiya took a deep breath and sat down opposite Tsunade and Richard.

After placing his order with the waiter, Jiraiya immediately told Tsunade about his experiences in the past three years.

Including but not limited to how he guided Naruto, what happened to them, why he bought souvenirs for Tsunade, etc.

For the past three years, Jiraiya has not returned to Konoha.

However, every time he visited a new place, he would buy some souvenirs that were unique to the place and send them to Tsunade.

Regarding this matter, Tsunade has told Richard before, or in other words, complained about Jiraiya's aesthetics.

Tsunade knew very well that Jiraiya had liked her since she was a child.

But she never had that thought about Jiraiya.

In her opinion, Jiraiya was just an old friend she had grown up with.

As for the rest, she hadn't thought about it at all.

When Jiraiya told about his experiences in the past three years, Richard and Tsunade didn't say much, listening to Jiraiya's story.

When Jiraiya finished his story, Tsunade said to Jiraiya: "You have worked hard these past three years."

"It's not hard, it's not hard."

Jiraiya quickly replied.

After saying that, he raised the wine glass in front of him and clinked a drink with Tsunade.

"In the past three years of traveling outside, I heard that this kid is provoking people from other villages everywhere. Are you just going to ignore him?"

"If he continues to make trouble like this, other villages will have problems with Konoha because of him."

Jiraiya said to Tsunade.

"Richard is not a ninja in the village. I have no right to control him."

Tsunade said quickly.

"But he has always lived in Konoha."

Jiraiya continued.

Tsunade turned to look at Richard and said to him, "Come and tell him."

"There's nothing to say."

"I did fight with the Kage and Jinchuriki of other villages, but I didn't kill them, I just challenged them to compete."

"Besides, I don't think my doing this will affect Konoha's reputation."

"If I remember correctly, after I became famous, more and more people came to the village from other countries to make commissions."

Richard said calmly.

He knew why Jiraiya suddenly mentioned this.

Jiraiya said this in front of Tsunade because Jiraiya regarded him as a love rival who wanted to steal Tsunade away.

Although he was not with Tsunade yet, Jiraiya still felt a strong sense of crisis, and felt that Tsunade was about to be taken away.

"It's true that you didn't kill them, but others won't think that you came to fight with them. They will only think that the people of Konoha bully the people of other villages based on their strength."

Jiraiya said quickly.

"What they want to think is their business. I am not God and cannot control what they think."

Richard replied calmly.

"No matter what, you still..."

Jiraiya also wanted to say something else.

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Tsunade.

"Okay, stop talking about this and have a drink."

Tsunade picked up the wine glass and said to Jiraiya and Richard.

Time passes little by little.

After staying in the izakaya for more than two hours, Richard and the others left the izakaya.

"Shall I take you home?"

Jiraiya said to Tsunade.

"No, you should go back and rest early."

After saying that, Tsunade didn't give Jiraiya a chance to speak and walked straight towards her residence.

Under the gaze of Richard and Jiraiya, Tsunade quickly disappeared from their sight.

When Tsunade left, Richard and Jiraiya didn't say anything and began to go back to their respective homes.

Richard did not intend to walk back slowly, but directly used his flying ability and flew towards his residence.

However, not far after flying out, he saw Tsunade standing on the roadside and waving to him.

After seeing Tsunade, Richard landed in front of Tsunade and said, "Is there anything else?"

"have!"

"Come for a walk with me."

Tsunade said to Richard.

Although he didn't know what Tsunade wanted to do, Richard did not refuse and nodded.

After walking like this for more than ten minutes, Tsunade said, "Do you think I should marry Jiraiya?"

Richard looked at Tsunade with surprise and said slowly: "The decision is up to you whether you want to marry Jiraiya or not."

"If you are asking for my opinion, I can only say that I cannot give you a definite answer."

"Because no matter which way you choose, there are pros and cons."

After hearing his answer, Tsunade continued: "Tell me in detail what are the pros and cons?"

"Let's talk about not getting married first. The advantage of not getting married is that you don't have to force yourself. The disadvantage is that you will lose a man who loves you the most."

"The advantage of getting married is that you won't end up alone. The disadvantage is that you and Jiraiya need to see each other day and night as husband and wife."

Richard said slowly.

Although he told the pros and cons of getting married and not getting married, it was obvious that Tsunade only listened to a small part of it.

"To die alone?"

"Are you looking down on me too much? I'm not so unattractive!"

Tsunade replied immediately.

"This is not a question of charm or not, but a question of identity and strength."

"You are Hokage, and your strength far exceeds that of others. If you want to marry you, you must not only have the courage, but also have the matching strength and status."

"Besides, your age is actually..."

Before Richard finished speaking, Tsunade's fair and delicate right fist, which contained astonishing power, came to Richard.

Although Tsunade's punches were fast, Richard's reaction was faster.

Before Tsunade's fist could hit him, Richard raised his right hand and grabbed her fist, blocking Tsunade's attack.

Bang!

A dull crashing sound like a war drum sounded immediately.

"You should understand now why I said that if I want to marry you, I must have matching strength."

"Otherwise, a small family dispute may very well cost the other person's life."

Richard continued.
