Konoha: My peaceful life was betrayed by the system.

Before Mito could answer, a sound came from inside the house.

"Why are you like Tobirama, coming all this way and bringing gifts?"

Hashirama said with a hint of helplessness, "My younger brother brought back a whole bunch of gifts from the Land of Hot Water."

Not only him, but also the heads of other families sent a lot of gifts.

Now we have nowhere to stay.

"Come in quickly, stop chatting outside, and help me tidy up while you're at it."

Upon hearing Hashirama's voice, Torifu and Jiri immediately took off their shoes and went inside.

Mito smiled gently and then went inside.

Pushing open the door, Tokiwa and Jiri saw Tobirama holding little Tsunade, while Hashirama was tidying up the gifts scattered on the floor.

For a moment, Qu Feng couldn't tell who his real grandfather was.

"Master, we're here to help you!"

As they spoke, the two began to help Hashirama tidy up the things scattered throughout the room; the three of them worked much faster.

In no time, all the gifts were sorted and neatly arranged.

"Ah, it's finally over." Hashirama slumped to the ground, wiping away sweat.

Actually, Hashirama didn't have to suffer this hardship; he just wanted to see what gifts the clan leaders were giving Tsunade.

He sat in the room and took everything apart one by one, making a mess of the whole room.

Mito then reprimanded him and made him clean the house.

When his younger brother arrived, he hugged Tsunade but didn't offer to help him; he just watched coldly.

In that instant, Hashirama learned what it meant to be cold and heartless, and realized that his two disciples were the only ones he could truly rely on.

"Brother, don't blame me. It was my sister-in-law who told me not to help you."

Hashirama was about to lash out when he heard this, but then he saw Mito's 'kind' smile.

He immediately adopted a serious expression: "Ahem, the responsibility for this lies with me, and you are right not to help me."

"Only in this way can I truly understand Mito's hardships and take better care of him in the future."

Mito leaned against the doorway, quietly watching her husband perform.

She didn't believe a single word Hashirama said; after all, he knew best what kind of person Hashirama was.

When they're unreliable, they're even more awful than a child!

"It's all cleaned up now. You guys chat first, I'll go cut some fruit."

After Mito left, Hashirama slowly got up, muttering something in a very soft voice that was difficult to hear.

It was the first time that Torifu and Jiri had seen Hashirama like this, and they found it quite novel.

After all, Hashirama is usually incredibly dignified.

"Master, where's Brother Zaojian? Why isn't he here?"

Hashirama walked to the table and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and said while drinking it, "My wife and I went to my father-in-law's house this morning, and we won't be back for a while."

Qu Feng felt a little regretful upon hearing this, as he hadn't seen Zaojian-ge for a long time and had thought he would be able to see him this time.

Married people are indeed very busy.

At this moment, Torifu took out a very exquisite rag doll from his sleeve, which he had bought with Tobirama in the Land of Hot Springs.

Although it's not much money, it's still a token of my appreciation.

As for why not redeem one from the system store? Of course, it's about saving money wherever possible.

Zhili only exchanged the gift because she didn't have time to prepare one, while he had already bought one and naturally didn't need it.

Hashirama looked at the rag doll and felt it looked familiar. He looked at it more closely and realized it was the same one that Tobirama had given him!

"Just put it there, so it can be a pair with Tobirama's."

Hashirama clearly harbored some resentment towards Tobirama, but Tobirama chose to ignore it and carried Tsunade around the room.

“Master, Lord Tobirama, this is a gift I am giving to Tsunade.”

As she spoke, Zhili took out the small box that she had obtained from the wind and placed it on the table.

"Oh? What is this?"

Zhili mimicked Qu Feng's tone and said, "You'll know once you open it."

Zhu took the box and opened it directly, just like in a barbecue restaurant.

A green light flickered, making one feel warm and cozy.

Then the light gradually dimmed, and everyone was able to see what it was.

"Is it a necklace?"

A pale green gemstone necklace lay quietly in the box, its design exquisite.

Following what Fukuto had told her, Chiri explained the necklace's functions in detail.

Hashirama beamed with joy upon hearing this, considering it the most practical gift imaginable.

Children are most prone to illness or bumps and bruises, and this necklace is enough to ensure Tsunade has a comfortable childhood.

His little princess must grow up healthy and happy; Hashirama will teach her whatever she wants to learn!

"This is a wonderful gift; Chiri is truly thoughtful." Tobirama was clearly very pleased with the gift.

Chiri felt somewhat ashamed of the praise from her master and Tobirama-sama, because the gift was not something she had prepared at all.

Instead, it was a family heirloom of Qu Feng, and she looked at Qu Feng apologetically.

Instead, a smile greeted him. Toru winked and said to Jiri with a laugh.

"Don't worry about it too much. I was just trying to save the day. You should choose a better gift next time."

Chapter 70: Distribution of Tailed Beasts, Five Kage Summit!

"Don't worry about it too much. I was just trying to save the day. You should choose a better gift next time."

After hearing this, Zhili smiled and nodded.

Hashirama took out the necklace and carefully put it around Tsunade's neck.

The emerald constantly emits tiny green fluorescence, like fireflies.

The still clueless Tsunade giggled and reached out to grab it, but she couldn't catch it no matter what she did.

At that moment, Mito returned to the house after cutting the fruit.

Seeing everyone gathered around Tsunade, he also joined in.

"What are you all doing?" Mito asked gently.

Tobirama carried Tsunade to Mito and said, "Sister-in-law, look, this necklace suits Tsunade perfectly."

Mito examined it carefully and nodded.

Tobirama explained the necklace's purpose to Mito, who was very pleased.

He then held the emerald from the necklace in his hand and cast a sealing spell on it.

"In this way, the necklace's power should last longer and protect Tsunade for a while longer."

Hashirama waved his hand and said, "With Tobirama and me here, who would dare to lay a finger on Tsunade?"

“We’re here too!” Torifu and Jiri said in unison.

Mito pulled Torifu and Haruto into his arms and patted their heads.

"You are all good boys."

Fortunately, both the Senju and Uzumaki clans are known for their longevity.

Mito felt she should live to see the day Tsunade became an excellent female ninja.

Mito couldn't help but smile as she watched Tsunade, who was trying to catch the glowing light with great force.

'What kind of person will you become? I hope you don't pick up your grandfather's gambling habit.'

After chatting for a while, Toki and Chiri left the Senju clan's territory.

We've met Tsunade, given her the gift, and achieved our goal, so there's no need to linger any longer.

Since I see my master every day, and today is a rare day off, I should naturally relax.

After Qu Feng and the others left, the three people inside the house started another conversation.

Tobirama placed Tsunade back in the cradle and then asked a question.

"Big brother, what should we do with the nine tailed beasts we captured?"

After pondering for a moment, Hashirama opened a hidden compartment in the wall and took out two sealed white jade pieces.

“I don’t need the Tailed Beasts myself, so I’d like to give these two Tailed Beasts to you.”

Hashirama placed the white jade block on the table; the patterns on the jade surface were carved with the images of the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Three-Tailed Fox.

"Even though the Nine-Tails, as the strongest tailed beast, is sealed inside the white jade, we cannot let our guard down."

Hashirama looked at his wife with a sincere expression: "Mito is the princess of the Uzumaki clan. I can only entrust her to you with peace of mind."

Hashirama's concerns were not unfounded; they had not yet truly attempted to control the Tailed Beasts by sealing the White Jade.

If an accident were to occur, only Mito, who is skilled in sealing techniques, would be able to withstand the Nine-Tails wreaking havoc within her.

"If you are unwilling, I will not force you."

Mito gazed at Hashirama with deep affection, then stroked his face with her hand.

"We are husband and wife, no need for further explanation."

Zhu Jian nodded heavily, for with such a wife, what more could a husband ask for?

"Tobirama, you are skilled in Water Release, and among the Tailed Beasts, the Three-Tails is most compatible with you, which should greatly enhance your strength."
