Naruto: I, who didn't want to be hacked to pieces, saved the ninja world.

"Teacher, everyone says the best way to eliminate fear is to face it. Why don't you take some time every day to confront your fear? Maybe your hemophobia will get better."

Baiyun Qingye thought this method was very feasible.

But Tsunade didn't think so. She stretched out her hands, grabbed Shirokumo Aoba's face, and started pulling and tugging at it.

"Teacher... what are you doing?"

Baiyun Qingye's face was pulled and felt a little sore.

"hehe!"

Tsunade sneered, "Is this treatment? You're clearly trying to torture your teacher, what a rebellious student!"

"It's true. I saw it in the teacher's study. As long as you look at blood and keep recalling the happiest and most joyful thing in your life, your hemophobia will naturally get better after you get used to it."

Baiyun Qingye felt like her face was about to be ripped off.

Upon hearing this, Tsunade stopped what she was doing, though her expression remained somewhat suspicious.

"Are you serious?"

"You have books in your study that you probably haven't even read carefully yourself."

Baiyun Qingye revealed a resentful expression.

Looking at the other person's expression, Tsunade felt a little embarrassed. She hadn't looked at the books in the study for many years, so how could she remember them so clearly?

She couldn't help but cough twice.

"Cough cough."

"Since that's the case... then I'll try it for a while. If it doesn't work, I'll have you bled!"

As she spoke, Tsunade kneaded and flattened the white cloud leaf again before stopping.

Trying to treat hemophobia in this way is a form of mental torture for her; if it weren't for her current situation, she would never want to face it in her life.

Shizune breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Tsunade didn't seem to be planning to leave again.

“Teacher, if you need treatment, I must be by your side,” Bai Yunqingye said righteously.

"Why?" Tsunade asked, somewhat puzzled.

"If the teacher is scared, having me by their side might make them feel a little better."

"..."

"Teacher, why are you blushing?"

boom!

"Have a meal!"

Summer rains always come quickly and suddenly.

It was as if the sky had suddenly been torn open, and large raindrops poured down like a flood bursting its banks.

The rain came suddenly and unexpectedly, but it had actually been brewing for some time.

The dull summer night passed, and in the next moment, thunder roared and wind and rain raged.

The rain started late last night and continued into this morning, with no sign of it stopping.

At this moment, Shirokumo Aoba was holding an umbrella and walking alone on the streets of Konoha.

He was also holding a scroll in his hand.

Because of the sudden downpour, there were very few pedestrians on the streets; nobody liked to go out in such weather.

It was humid and hot.

We walked for a long time.

Baiyun and Qingye finally arrived at their destination.

The Hyuga clan's territory.

He had barely approached the door when Hinata Natsu, dressed in a maid outfit, appeared at the door and gave a slight bow.

"Lord Aoba."

Bai Yunqingye raised her right hand, showed the scroll in her hand to the other party, and said with a smile.

"This is the medicine that the teacher prepared for Aunt Ayako."

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Lord Aoba, to come all this way in the rain. Please come in."

Hinata Natsu said something apologetically, then moved aside.

Bai Yunqingye was somewhat surprised, not expecting that he would be allowed to enter this time.

However, he didn't ask any more questions and walked into the courtyard, which he had visited many times before.

The entire Hyuga clan's territory is mostly constructed of wood.

Its style is simple and unadorned yet grand.

One look at them and you know they're a big family.

Because it was raining heavily, Hinata didn't practice Gentle Fist today.

He was kneeling in the corridor, listening to the rain while flipping through the book in his hands.

Hinata Hanabi stood a distance away from Hinata, secretly observing her.

Hiashi Hyuga and Ayako Hyuga were drinking tea while watching the rain.

"This rain came at a really clever time."

Hiashi Hyuga couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

"Master, Madam, Lord Aoba has arrived."

Hinata Natsuya had already brought Shirakumo Aoba in.

Hinata, who had been reading a book, immediately looked up and headed in the direction from which the sound came.

"Aoba-kun!"

Hinata's face was filled with surprise; she had thought that with such heavy rain today, she wouldn't have a chance to see him.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yun Qingye came directly to her house.

"Hinata, good morning."

Shirokumo Aoba also greeted Hinata with a smile.

Hinata stood up, but before she could get close, a small figure rushed over.

"Brother Qingye!"

Hinata Hanabi ran out and stood in front of Shirakumo Aoba, her cute little face still showing a wronged expression.

"What's going on here?"

In the past few months, Baiyun Qingye has frequently come to deliver medicine, so he has also developed a good relationship with his sister-in-law, Hanabi.

"My sister bullied me again this morning!"

As she spoke, Hanabi rubbed her bottom in a wronged manner, clearly because Hinata had hit her that morning.

Hinata's face flushed red as she thought about what happened that morning.

Baiyun Qingye immediately saw through the truth and patted the other's head.

"Did you bully your sister again?"

Hanabi blushed and said softly, "Because my sister looks so cute when she's shy."

Shirokumo Aoba glanced at Hinata, whose face was still flushed with embarrassment, and immediately understood Hanabi's reason for playing a prank on Hinata.

"Cough cough cough."

With a livid face, Hiashi Hyuga finally couldn't help but speak up.

Even if you're Tsunade's disciple, it's still going too far to act like this in front of me and my daughters, both of them!

He was already itching to get his hands on it.

"Uncle Hiashi!"

Shirokumo Aoba politely greeted Hyuga Hiashi and then handed him the scroll.

"This is this week's medicine."

"Yes, please thank Lady Tsunade for me."

Hiashi Hyuga accepted the scroll with a sullen face.

"I must thank Aoba-kun for delivering the medicine."

Ayako Hinata smiled at Aoba Shirakumo.

"It's what I should do."

Shirokumo Aoba smiled and patted Hinata and Hanabi's heads in front of Hyuga Hiashi.

As the temperature in Hyuga Hiashi rises higher and higher, alarms have already been sounded.

He planned to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Hiashi Hyuga seemed to be suppressing the voice of the monster within him as he spoke.

"Come in and have a seat!"

Baiyun Qingye was curious about what the other party was up to, but the other party had already gone inside.

In the reception room.

The two sat facing each other at a coffee table.

Hiashi Hyuga was holding a teacup and taking a gentle sip.

But the slightly trembling hands and the murderous look in his eyes made Bai Yunqingye feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.

"Hanabi, why don't you sit somewhere else?"

He patted Hanabi's head, who was sitting on his lap.

He feared that if the little girl didn't leave soon, he would be disposed of by Hiashi Hyuga.

"Why? I think Aoba-nii's legs are the most comfortable to sit on."

Hanabi said in a slightly coquettish tone, while glancing at Hinata, who was making a bitter face.

Little Firework just wanted more attention from her older sister, but her love-struck sister didn't understand at all.

Hinata never expected that someone would compete with her for Aoba-kun in her own home.

This is called "when the young fires fight, the young leaves benefit."

"Hinata, take Hanabi out for a bit."

Hiashi Hyuga spoke up.

Hinata's eyes lit up as if she had received a royal decree, and she immediately got up and carried Hanabi out.

Only the two of them remained in the room.

"Uncle Hiashi, is there something you want to talk to me about?"

Baiyun Qingye felt that it was most likely related to Tsunade.

As Hinata and Hanabi left, Hiashi Hyuga finally suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice.

"Young friend Aoba, as Lady Tsunade's disciple, you must be aware of the situation in Konoha. In your opinion, who in Konoha today is suitable to be the Hokage?"

Boom!!!
