Kato Dan's gaze was fixed on Tsunade, who felt somewhat uncomfortable under his gaze and awkwardly lowered her head.

"It's... not bad..."

It’s over.

Seeing Tsunade's reaction, Chiaki slapped his forehead.

Sister, your reaction makes people think you're shy, giving scumbags an opportunity to take advantage of you!

Even if Tsunade was actually just a little embarrassed and didn't know what to do because she didn't want to offend him on the spot, in the man's eyes, that was shyness!

By the way, Uncle White Teeth, is it really okay for you to squat next to me and watch the show and eat melon seeds with me?

Why are you so adept at gossiping?

How many chaotic situations have you created?!

Chiaki glanced silently at Hatake Sakumo, who was squatting beside her. Sakumo minimized his presence and happily ate the melon with a smile on his face.

"!!!"

Jiraiya, sensing something was wrong, suddenly looked up and glanced at Tsunade warily. When he noticed Tsunade's awkward and timid demeanor, which he had never seen before, he was immediately furious.

"Hey! Who do you think you are, kid?! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're a little handsome!"

"You know I'm way more handsome than you!"

He rushed forward, grabbed Kato Dan by the collar, and shook him repeatedly, but Kato Dan continued to look at Tsunade silently, with a look of deep affection.

"Alright...alright! Jiraiya!"

Tsunade stepped forward and tugged at Jiraiya, "Please put him down, I'm begging you."

Jiraiya threw Kato Dan to the ground in disbelief. "You're pleading with me for his sake? You're giving in to me?"

"You?...Him?"

"I understand... I wish you happiness..."

He gave Tsunade and Kato Dan a deep look, then turned and walked out of the tent, his back looking lonely and forlorn.

"Oh my god..."

Tsunade sighed and rubbed her forehead, glaring at the smiling Kato Dan before calling out to Jiraiya, "Come back here! There's something else going on!"

Jiraiya remained deaf to the accusations, his gloom deepening.

"Hey! Stop looking at me!"

Tsunade panicked and punched Kato Dan, knocking him to his knees.

"...Alright, alright! Jiraiya! You're more handsome than him! Okay?"

Tsunade stepped forward and grabbed Jiraiya. For some reason, she didn't want to see Jiraiya looking so dejected.

"Really!?"

Jiraiya turned around excitedly, shaking off his dejection, his eyes shining.

"Um... um."

Tsunade was a little embarrassed by Jiraiya's gaze, but she quickly recovered and punched him on the head.

"Don't cause any trouble! We need to get down to business!"

"Hey Hey……"

Jiraiya, who had been punched, returned with a silly grin. Orochimaru shook his head, looked down at Kato Dan, who was clutching his stomach as he got up, and asked, "What do you like about such a rough woman?"

Chapter 52 A Domineering Aura Exudes from His White Teeth

Orochimaru had absolutely no understanding of things like love or affection.

However, it's easy to understand that Tsunade is different from ordinary women.

At least her personality is beyond what most people can accept.

"What do you like about her?"

"Maybe... it's because she's very genuine."

Kato Dan coughed lightly and straightened up, noticing a pink-haired girl blinking and treating him behind him. He couldn't help but smile.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. Actually, I'm quite embarrassed too."

Chiaki touched her cheek. If she hadn't interfered, Kato Dan would have really won Tsunade's heart.

The current situation is that Kato Dan is pursuing Tsunade relentlessly, but Tsunade has developed feelings for Jiraiya and is hesitant.

Good heavens, it's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage. Qianqiu just arrived and has already separated them. It seems the FFF group's application to join the group is definitely going to be successful.

"Excuse me? Why?"

Kato Dan looked at Chiaki strangely, and Chiaki didn't know how to reply to him for a moment.

"Ahem, the farce is over. Everyone, stand up straight!"

Seeing that the melon was finished, Hatake Sakumo solemnly tapped the table. Everyone quickly stood up straight, and Chiaki, who breathed a sigh of relief, also shrank to the side, trying not to disturb them.

what?

Why is Qianqiu here?

Because Danzo said that Chiaki should play her proper role, it's reasonable for Tsunade to take Chiaki with her everywhere she goes.

"Explain the situation."

Hatake Sakumo nodded to Kato Dan, who took a deep breath, composed himself, and began to explain the battle situation with a smile.

"The current battle situation is divided into three parts, and the think tank suspects that the Wind Kingdom may be besieging us."

Kato Dan took out a large map from his pocket, on which three large circles had already been drawn with a pen.

"The casualties on the southern and northern battlefields are very heavy. Fighting in the desert is very difficult for us in Konoha. We must send ninjas who can turn the tide."

"The battle was extremely intense in the middle of the battlefield where the desert and forest meet. The Sand Village did not send out all of its main puppet troops, but only had the Breaking Bad master Chiyo to oversee the center. The medical ninjas were under great pressure to detoxify."

"Our intelligence team has not been able to locate the puppet troops. The think tank judges that there is a very high probability that the Sand Ninja will launch a surprise attack on the camp, and then coordinate with the camps in the north and south to attack our central battlefield."

As Kato Dan spoke, he glanced at Tsunade.

"What? You want me to go to the central battlefield and confront old woman Chiyo? It's not impossible."

Even though the central battlefield was extremely dangerous, Tsunade showed no fear whatsoever.

She raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at Hatake Sakumo. "Did the Sand Ninja know about our deployment? The three circles are clearly prepared for the three of us, and it's obvious they're trying to separate us."

"You're overthinking it. They're just trying to gang up on me."

Sakumo Hatake said calmly, "They don't know that the Third Hokage transferred you here. Chiyo's provocation in the Central Government is clearly an attempt to lure me out."

"The think tank's assessment is correct. Once I am lured to the center, the Sand Ninja will inevitably launch a surprise attack on our headquarters."

"You're really amazing!"

Jiraiya mimicked Sakumo Hatake's sarcastic tone, but Sakumo ignored him and instead looked at Dan Kato.

"Has the intelligence unit not yet detected any enemies around the camp?"

"I'm very sorry, we've expanded the search area to five kilometers, but we still haven't found anything."

Kato Dan shook his head, clearly somewhat confused as well.

What are the Sand Ninja doing? Can an attack from five kilometers away even be called an attack?

"In any case, we must leave someone to defend the base."

Orochimaru suddenly spoke up, looking at Sakumo Hatake and saying, "If Lord White Fang is going to Amegakure, then we will be missing a Kage-level fighter, and the situation may become quite dire."

"There's no other way. The threat posed by the demigod Hanzo is far greater than that of the Land of Wind. This is a last resort."

Kato Dan sighed, "If only Konoha had a few more Kage-level shinobi."

Chiaki pursed her lips. Konoha was indeed in a period of transition, but fortunately, other countries were in the same boat.

In a few years, by the time of the Third Shinobi World War, Konoha will have many more Kage-level shinobi, making it much easier to fight.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. Qianqiu was too nervous to speak, and she, a newbie, sat trembling among the experts.

"Ah, this is it!"

"report!"

Just then, a commotion broke out outside the tent, and the tent door was immediately flung open.

"Hey... don't just barge in!"

A handsome, warm-hearted blond boy watched helplessly as a child rushed into the tent, and followed him in, apologizing profusely.

"Watergate!?"

Jiraiya watched Minato arrive with delight, while Tsunade was startled when she saw the child.

"Rope Tree! What are you doing here!"

"Hehe! Sister! You were surprised! I'm already a genin! Of course I'm going to the battlefield!"

Nawaki Senju, Tsunade's younger brother. Although they are not blood relatives, since the Senju clan is almost extinct, even if he is her cousin, they are still considered the closest relatives.

He suddenly threw himself into Tsunade's arms, acting like a fearless newborn calf, and repeatedly called out to her, "Sister, where is that little sister you mentioned in your letter? Is she over here?"

Nawaki looked around and, upon spotting Chiaki, excitedly pounced on her, acting all familiar that Chiaki couldn't handle.

"Wait... Nawaki! Hey!"

Tsunade chased after him with a headache. This child had always been full of energy since he was a child. If he hadn't completely failed to inherit Wood Release, she probably would have thought he was the reincarnation of Hashirama Senju.

"Greetings, Jiraiya-sensei, and all of you sirs."

Minato bowed respectfully, and when he saw Chiaki entangled in the rope tree, he smiled gently.

After Shuimen and Rope Tree entered, a man who was extremely polite appeared outside the tent.

"The Hyuga clan, Hyuga Hiashi, along with his younger brother Hyuga Hizashi, request an audience with Lord Sakumo Hatake of Konoha!"
