"You brat, you came back to Konoha and didn't even come to let me know you were safe before running around everywhere?"
While scolding Chiba, Tsunade's gaze suddenly sharpened, and she angrily said, "Wait, where's the necklace I gave you? Why aren't you wearing it?!"
"me……"
As Tsunade walked towards him with an angry expression, Chiba's short life flashed through his mind.
Just then, Nono stood in front of him, shook her head, and said.
"Lady Tsunade, Chiba is an independent individual who can do what he wants according to his own will. Why do you interfere with him?"
"I'm interfering with him?" Tsunade roared in anger. "Because we're family, because I'm his... sister! It's none of your business, an outsider, to tell me what to do when I'm disciplining him!"
"Oh, did you really say these things as Chiba-neechan?"
Faced with the enraged "Sannin", Nono questioned him without backing down. Beneath her gentle exterior lay a tenacity and toughness far beyond that of ordinary people.
"If that's the case, then as Chiba's peer, I support you in disciplining your younger brother, Tsunade!"
Nono deliberately emphasized the word "older sister," and her intention was self-evident.
"you you……!!"
Tsunade was so angry at Nono that she couldn't speak. She was both ashamed and annoyed, and Chiba stared in disbelief at her magnificent chest.
"What's going on? Why do I feel like they're both implying something? Did I miss twenty episodes?"
Chiba felt an itch in his head, as if his brain was about to grow.
"They're like...like they're...fighting over someone? Wait, they're fighting over me?!"
Chiba looked at the horribly injured Tsunade, then at the mature and elegant Nono, and was dumbfounded, hardly believing his own judgment.
In this situation, he never dared to dream that two beautiful older sisters, each with their own unique charm, would both fall for him, this "little kid".
Chiba felt that he might have gotten too excited, or he might not have woken up properly, or he might have been caught in a genjutsu by a certain inherently evil Uchiha on the day of the Chunin Exams!
"You're fine."
Tsunade gave Nono a deep look, silently classifying her as a dangerous person in her mind. This woman was just as dangerous as Nawaki!
Tsunade withdrew her gaze and looked at Chiba beside her, saying, "Come with me, Chiba, I have something to tell you."
"Ah good……"
Just as Chiba was about to agree, Nonou spoke softly from behind him, "Chiba, didn't you say you were going to come with me today?"
"Ah, this..."
Chiba was caught in the middle between two beautiful older women, feeling overwhelmed and torn between them.
If he doesn't choose Tsunade, he might die, but he can't just abandon Nonou like that, since he did make a promise to her.
"How about... I create a clone?"
Chiba tentatively proposed a solution that would benefit both sides.
This is, after all, the ninja world, where there are many new ways to play—I mean, new ways to solve problems that he couldn't unlock in his previous life.
"Okay."
Nono nodded, smiling at Chiba: "So, where will you leave your original body?"
Although Tsunade didn't speak, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Chiba with an unfriendly gaze, waiting for Chiba's choice.
"Saved... my ass!"
Chiba broke out in a cold sweat again.
The rule is that adults don't need to make choices and can have it all, so why doesn't that apply to him?
"This is... hell!"
Seeing the two women's seemingly gentle but actually murderous eyes, Chiba felt like crying.
Compared to his current situation, all the life-or-death crises he experienced before were nothing. This is the real hellhole!
To be honest, both Tsunade and Nono are perfect in Chiba's eyes. If he could have either one, Chiba would feel that his time travel was worthwhile.
After all, besides being handsome, he doesn't have much else to offer.
But if these two were together at the same time, he really couldn't enjoy it. He couldn't very well split his forty centimeters in half, could he?
"I...I...maybe..."
Chiba held it in for a long time but couldn't utter a single fart. The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense, and even the children sensed something was wrong and hurriedly fled the scene.
Tsunade had already started rolling up her sleeves, seemingly ready to fight at the slightest provocation. Nono's eyes also turned dangerous. Even the gentlest kitten can bite when it gets angry!
Chiba, who wanted to leave but couldn't, was caught in the middle of the two, making her even more miserable.
He felt like he was sitting on a time bomb that was on a countdown, and he could be blown to pieces at any moment.
Chiba wished a red-haired girl would drive in a Ferrari right now and take him away from this hellish scene!
"Hey sis, why were you running so fast just now?"
Just as Chiba was thinking of his last words, a figure burst in, panting heavily, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.
At that moment, Chiba was so excited he almost cried. He suddenly understood why Mingfei couldn't forget Nuonuo!
"Sis, why are you looking at me like that? It's like you're going to beat me up."
The newcomer was Nawaki. He scratched his head, somewhat confused, "And Chiba, Nono, why is everyone staring at me? It's making me feel really embarrassed..."
"Rope Tree, my dear brother!"
Chiba rushed to him in a flash, grabbed his hand, and refused to let go.
"What are you doing, Chiba? My older sister and the others are still here..."
Rope Tree blushed, but Chiba didn't give him a chance to speak and pulled him outside by the hand.
"Rope Tree, didn't you say you wanted to go boating on the lake with me? Come on, let's go now!"
"Hey, wait a minute, Chiba, I'm..."
Rope Tree's head was buzzing. Before he could figure out what was happening, he had already run dozens of meters away with Chiba.
"But Chiba actually remembered that I wanted to go boating. It seems he still cares about me as a brother!" Nawaki thought to himself with satisfaction.
"Hmph, that Chiba guy!"
In the orphanage, watching Chiba's hurried escape, Tsunade and Nono simultaneously snorted coldly.
Realizing they actually had a good understanding of each other, they quickly turned their heads away, refusing to look at each other.
However, in their hearts, they were all very dissatisfied with Chiba's behavior of avoiding problems, and regarded each other as "formidable rivals"!
"Dean Nono, let's forget about what just happened and get back to the main topic."
Public matters are public, and private matters are private; Tsunade clearly distinguishes between these two, and she quickly got into work mode.
"I plan to adopt some talented children from you and train a new generation of medical ninjas. I wonder if you, as the dean, would approve?"
Nono nodded slightly and readily agreed, "Of course, let me take you to see the children first."
……
On a small boat in Konoha Inner Lake.
Nawaki was grinning foolishly by himself, rowing the boat incessantly, while Chiba looked preoccupied.
"Nawaki, do you think Lady Tsunade likes me?" Chiba suddenly asked.
"Pfft!"
Chiba thought his good friend would be angry, but to his surprise, the other person just burst out laughing.
"I'm being serious, Nawaki!"
Chiba asked with a serious expression, "What if one day I become your brother-in-law? Won't that affect our brotherly relationship? Or should we just go our separate ways?"
"Hahaha, you're making me laugh so hard I'm dying."
Seeing Chiba's serious expression, Nawaki laughed even harder, almost to the point of bursting out of breath.
"Chiba, don't think that just because you're handsome, my older sister will like you. She's not that kind of shallow girl."
Nawaki put down the oar and looked at Chiba, saying, "Besides, with my older sister's arrogant personality, I don't think she would fall for anyone, let alone someone as young as you."
"Chiba, in my older sister's eyes, we're just two kids who never grew up. Take my advice, don't overthink it. It's not that I'm afraid you'll be hurt, I'm afraid my older sister will beat you to death!"
After Nawaki's kind words, Chiba's enthusiasm subsided considerably, but this time he still trusted his own judgment.
Recalling their past interactions, Chiba felt that Tsunade might actually have feelings for him, and so might Nonou!
How to put it? Chiba suddenly understood what the troubles of happiness meant: when you have to choose between two wonderful things, you will be caught in a dilemma.
"Alas, how can one have it all, to be true to both my beloved and my older sister..."
"Chiba, you're really stirring things up? Let me tell you, no way, absolutely no way! No girl will like you!"
"Just you wait, Rope Tree, if I wanted to, I'd definitely be the first to find a partner before you."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Chapter 81 Assassination within the Land of Fire?
Because he was afraid of being killed by Tsunade offline, Chiba didn't dare to go home that night and spent the night in the Anbu instead, resulting in him not getting a good night's rest.
The moment he closes his eyes, he sees Tsunade and Nono appearing in front of him, demanding to know who he likes better, with Mikoto lurking behind them... Oh my god!
"No, I need to do something to distract myself!"
Chiba sat up on the bed in the lounge, found paper and pen, and wrote a letter accusing Hiruko with his foot.
"This guy is a threat to all ninjas with bloodline limits. Now that we've remembered him, let's take care of him as soon as possible."
In his letter, Chiba indicated that Hiruko was researching a forbidden technique that violated human ethics, attempting to merge the bodies of other ninjas and summoned beasts with his own, and to seize their bloodline limit power in order to satisfy his ambition to rule the ninja world.
After writing the letter, Chiba made sure he hadn't left any trace before slapping it against the wall while people were coming and going outside.
"I reckon it won't be long before this letter reaches Hiruzen Sarutobi's desk," Chiba thought to himself.
"I hope that the task of hunting down Beiliuhu will be assigned directly to me. That way, I might be able to get some benefits from him before I kill this white-haired man."
