Naruto, the strongest Uchiha from signing in

Konoha Village is divided into streets outside the transformation area.

In order to ensure that even if reforms are initiated, history is respected and future generations will not forget the lessons of the past.

Xuye Palace specially placed the old buildings of the entire Konoha Village in the southeast of the village for future generations to admire.

Some villagers who still have feelings for this place still choose to live here.

Of course, there are also people who choose to stay here for some reasons. At least the rent of these residences is cheap and very secluded.

In the evening, the slightly old wooden door was knocked. When Shizune hurried over to open the door, a familiar face came into view.

"Kanazuki-kun... No, Lord Xuye Palace Master!"

Coming back to his senses, Shizune bowed his head and saluted, but Kazuki smiled and waved.

"Don't be so restrained. We are classmates and ninjas from the same era. How are you doing recently?"

Faced with this casual conversation, Shizune was surprised. How could Kagetsu, who was usually elusive, have time to come to see her today?

Perhaps she came to drink with Lady Tsunade. Her eyes were a little dim, but she still forced a smile.

"Yeah, you still remember that the ninja school at that time was not as prosperous as it is now..."

"I just got busy, not forgetful. Do you need to change your shoes?"

"I'll help you..."

Shizune quickly took out a pair of shoes from the shoe cabinet. The familiar yet unfamiliar fragrance made her a little dazed. She didn't know when the seniors who used to be familiar with her in the ninja academy became so unfamiliar.

In the living room, Jingyin silently picked up the sweet orange and sent it to Kagetsu.

But she saw the other party looking around with a smile, with some curiosity between her eyebrows.

"I remember that the resettlement fee in Konoha should be enough to buy 2 to 3 new lofts. Why are the furniture here still the same?"

"Tsunade-sama said that she doesn't like new furniture and styles. It makes her feel like she has been abandoned by the times..."

Before she finished speaking, the door was kicked open roughly. Before she entered the house, she heard a powerful roar.

"Shizune! Bring me some wine..."

"Tsunade-sama, you've drunk too much again. Why do you always drink in broad daylight recently? Kagetsu-kun is here..."

Rushing to Tsunade-sama and helping her up, Shizune quickly leaned over to Tsunade's ear and whispered.

Hearing this, Shizune could clearly feel Tsunade's body stiffen, and the whole person instantly sobered up from the drunken state.

After a short silence, a clear snoring sounded, which made Shizune speechless.

After a while, Shizune helped Tsunade to her room helplessly, wiped the wine stains on her body with a wet towel, and rushed back to the living room with an embarrassed face.

"Sorry, Lady Tsunade..."

"It's okay, I understand. If you don't mind, I want to stay here for one night. I wonder if you welcome it?"

Facing that long-lost smile, Shizune, who wanted to refuse, didn't know why the words came to her lips and couldn't speak, so she could only nod and agree silently.

In the middle of the night, in the master bedroom.

Tsunade, who pretended to sleep until midnight, opened her eyes quietly, looked around, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, a big hand that she was familiar and afraid of quietly placed on Tsunade's shoulder.

"Tsunade-sama, can you please explain why there is another bill of yours, which was mailed directly from the casino to the Kyonoya Palace... I'm really curious!"

Instantly, Tsunade fell to the ground. She pretended to sleep until midnight, how could she still be there!

"Wait...wait, I can actually explain this matter..."

"I don't want to hear it, either pay back the money or pay off the debt..."

The white sheets slipped off, and the bath towel on her body could not hide her curvy figure. The clothes on her body were stained with alcohol, so they were taken away by Shizune to wash.

"At least, at least not here, change...change to another place!"

"Why, are you scared? In order to assassinate the target, ninjas need to endure the torture of the environment for a long time, and restraining their voices is the basic quality of ninjas."

......

Tsunade's expression was complicated. She didn't want to be exposed so early, at least not in front of Shizune now.

After Duan died, she regarded Shizune as her sister and raised her like her own child. No matter what, she didn't want her image to collapse in front of her juniors.

At the very least, it can't be completely broken. Although there is not much image to speak of, there is still some reservation in interpersonal relationships.

However, she really couldn't afford to pay back that money. The current Konoha Medical Department was making rapid progress in medical ninjutsu, and the amount of money that could be earned from surgery alone was much higher than that of the medical department.Already...

As if she had accepted her fate, Tsunade rationally stopped struggling, clenched her teeth, and vowed not to make any sound.

"Then, this gift is for you, don't take it off, I will reduce your interest as appropriate..."

In the early hours of the morning, Shizune woke up from her sleep with a blank expression.

Dingling——

The sound of the bell from nowhere made her drowsy brain clear, and then she fell into a drowsy state again.

There were no wind chimes at home, how could there be bells? She must be dreaming.

The next day, morning.

Shizune, who had not slept well, woke up in a panic, subconsciously glanced at the time, and hurriedly got up from the bed.

She hurried to the living room, only to hear a series of crisp bells ringing, and when she looked closely, she saw a string of exquisitely crafted wind chimes hung in the living room at some point.

In the kitchen, Tsunade poked her head out, and the smile on her face was a little stiff.

"You're awake."

"Sorry, Lady Tsunade, I didn't prepare breakfast. This wind chime is..."

"Ah, this is a small gift I won from the casino a few days ago. I think it's well made."

Shizune looked at the wind chime blown by the breeze in confusion, half believing and half doubting.

"Is that so? It turns out that the sound Li heard in the middle of the night was not an illusion..."

The busy Tsunade hesitated for a moment, and then said nonchalantly.

"Samui and the others will ask us to go hiking together. I have reflected on it recently. I can't always be free and easy in fine wine and casinos. It's time to change my mood."

"Really? That's great! In fact, I'm already worried about whether I have to eat dirt to live next month. It's great that you can think about me so much."

Facing the cheering Shizune, Tsunade lowered her head in shame. The psychological defense line that was originally prepared to perfunctorily deal with this matter collapsed at this moment.

................

In the morning, scenic spots near Konoha.

"Hey, Shizune, the Fifth Hokage, this way..."

Seeing the arrival of the three people in Sackcloth, Shizune walked forward quickly, and a series of dense bells rang, which made Shizune stunned.

"The current trend is bells?"

Faced with Shizune's question, Samui silently picked up the bell on his waist and put it in her hand.

"The sound is very good, do you want to try it?"

After the voice fell, another bell rang, and Shizune looked at everyone suspiciously...

Just now, this bell didn't seem to ring, probably...
