I'm in Konoha, and I started with Ashura Chakra.

Chapter 73 The Deteriorated Master-Disciple Relationship: Tsunade, He's Your Clan

"Yes, Teacher Hong."

Yagyu introduced Karin to Kurenai Yuhi: "Her name is Karin, and she's been taking care of you these past few days."

"Thank you for taking care of me during this time, Karin."

Kurenai smiled and greeted Karin, then tried to sit up.

"Teacher Hong, please don't..."

Karin looked anxious and was about to remind him, but it was too late.

Kurenai Yuhi, who was originally covered by a blanket with only her head and hands showing, had just sat up when the blanket slipped off her body, revealing her naked body hidden underneath.

Yagyu's eyes widened like bells, providing a meme of a dog's eyes staring wide-eyed.

"what……"

Kurenai looked down and instantly let out a scream that could shatter glass.

Immediately, she crossed her arms, her face flushed, and looked at Liu Sheng, shouting in embarrassment and indignation, "Aren't you going to get out of here right now?!"

"oh oh……"

Liu Sheng snapped out of his daze and quickly left the room.

"Teacher Hong, I'm so sorry, I'm really so sorry, it's all my fault..."

As the door closed, Yagyu could already hear Karin apologizing repeatedly; she must be bowing to Kurenai Yuhi constantly.

Liu Sheng rubbed his slightly hot nose.

The hot-blooded young man, witnessing such a scene at such close range, almost spat out blood on the spot.

Because of the principle that men and women should not be too close, Yagyu has had Karin take care of Kurenai Yuhi these past few days, and he himself has not entered her room at all.

So he never expected that when Karin was wiping Kurenai's body, she wouldn't help her get dressed.

Oh wait, it seems that Teacher Hong's clothes are indeed no longer wearable!

The Red Eye's ability is similar to the Byakugan. When activated, it can only reveal the body's meridians and chakra flow. Yagyu was unaware that Kurenai Yuhi's body, hidden under the covers, was completely naked.

Having just woken up and perhaps not yet fully conscious, Kurenai obviously didn't notice any of this.

So, two unsuspecting people, one gave out the benefit, and the other accepted it.

I must say... she's a mature and sophisticated woman, she has a really great figure!

Liu Sheng thought to himself, then quickly shook his head, trying to shake the unclean things out of his head.

Bang!

At that moment, Liu Sheng faintly heard a sound like a balloon bursting inside the room.

It sounded somewhat like the use of the Three Bodies Technique and the Shadow Clone Technique, and also like the sound of opening a storage scroll.

Squeak!

A moment later, the sound of the door opening rang out.

Kurenai, dressed in a formal suit, came out with Karin, who had her head down.

"Teacher Hong..."

Before Liu Sheng could step forward and speak, a slender arm locked his neck.

Kurenai Yuhi said fiercely, "You brat, forget everything you just saw, do you hear me?"

"Teacher Hong... I can't forget you like this!"

Liu Sheng, who was about to agree, suddenly spoke in a muffled tone because half of his face was pressed against his conscience, which had just been feasting his eyes, due to being choked.

Upon hearing this, Kurenai's face turned bright red again. Her action immediately changed from a chokehold to gripping Yagyu's neck with both hands, shaking his body violently, and warning, "Forget everything, do you hear me?"

"I...I heard it."

Although Kurenai didn't exert any force, Yagyu still pretended to be in pain, looking as if he couldn't speak, and nodded repeatedly.

"snort!"

Kurenai finally released her grip, letting out a soft groan as she turned her head away.

Because of what just happened, Kurenai Yuhi will probably be unable to face Yagyu directly for a while.

The teacher's image has been completely shattered.

Seeing this, Liu Sheng comforted her, "Teacher Hong, it's alright. Just like you said a few days ago, I'm just a little kid who's still drinking milk."

"You still dare to say that?"

Kurenai Yuhi's eyes seemed to burn with flames as she glared fiercely at Yagyu.

Can't you tell that I was actually teasing you on purpose?

There's no kid who's almost 1.7 meters tall!

Knowing that Kurenai was in a bad mood, Yagyu quickly raised his hands in surrender and dared not say another word.

"Let's go out to eat, I'm hungry."

Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Kurenai immediately left the house.

Yagyu and Karin followed closely behind.

Standing next to Yagyu, Karin said with a look of shame, "Yagyu-kun, I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

Yagyu glanced at Kurenai Yuhi ahead and deliberately flattered her, saying, "It's alright, Kurenai-sensei is the gentlest and kindest beauty in the entire ninja world, she won't blame you."

"puff……"

Actually, she wasn't angry at all; she just didn't know how to face Yagyu's Kurenai, and was instantly amused.

She turned and glared at Yagyu and Karin, saying irritably, "Why are you walking so far behind? Hurry up and catch up. I haven't eaten for days, and I'm practically starving. You two know this place better, so lead the way."

"Yes, we're coming right now!"

Yagyu quickly agreed and led Karin to either side of Kurenai Yuhi, taking her to the best restaurant in Tanabata.

In fact, this was a way out given by Kurenai Yuhi; she wasn't actually that hungry right now.

Although Kurenai was unconscious for several days, Yagyu had Karin feed her three soldier pills every day.

Each soldier's ration pill represents one meal, and three soldier's ration pills can sustain one's physical strength for a day.

With the perfect coordination between Yagyu and Kurenai, the two sides quickly returned to their original state.

But a mentor-student relationship that has already begun to deteriorate cannot be restored simply by good acting skills.

Once something becomes impure, it is destined never to return to its original pure state.

While the three of them, Yagyu, were having dinner, Tsunade, who had been wreaking havoc at the casino, was in a very bad mood.

Looking at the pile of banknotes on the table and the gamblers who were on the verge of tears, Tsunade felt no joy at winning money.

She won!

I don't even know how long ago it was when I last won money.

Every time she wins money, it means something bad is about to happen.

Thinking of this, Tsunade instantly lost her interest in gambling and prepared to leave Tanabata Street with Shizune.

"Tsunade, it's been a long time."

Just as she turned the corner, a familiar figure appeared in front of Tsunade.

Looking at the familiar face before her, Tsunade called out his name with a complex expression: "Orochimaru."

Meanwhile, Yagyu, who was having dinner with Kurenai and Karin, couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

In his perception, two extremely powerful chakras had already met.

It seems Orochimaru has found Tsunade.

Jiraiya and Naruto should be arriving around the same time.

After dinner, Yagyu and Karin continued to accompany Kurenai Yuhi shopping.

Compared to the nearby towns of Konoha, Tanabata Street is one of Konoha's commercial streets and is very bustling.

There are many things here that you can't buy in Konoha, and they're relatively cheap.

So, Kurenai took Yagyu and Karin shopping for clothes, almost exhausting the two guys with special physical abilities.

Unfortunately, most people only look at the Xi Ri Hong items without buying them, and very few even try them on.

She would only try on clothes she really liked, and then she would get caught up in indecision, constantly asking Yagyu and Karin for their opinions, and finally giving up because of the price.

Yagyu and Karin were not physically tired, but their minds were tormented.

Yagyu didn't know how powerful Itachi's Tsukuyomi was, but he would rather take a hit from Itachi than go shopping with Kurenai.

But as the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to be obligated to him, and he who takes another's money is bound to be obligated to him."

Yagyu, who received benefits from Kurenai Yuhi, could only endure the exhaustion.

The same applies to iris.

And so, Kurenai led Yagyu and Karin on a shopping spree for several hours, from noon until dusk, and only managed to buy five pieces of clothing.

Two of the items were bought for Yagyu and Karin, which touched Karin deeply at the time.

Not only did he recommend me, but he also forgave my mistakes and is now buying me clothes. He truly deserves to be called Yagyu-kun's teacher. He's such a good person!

After shopping, it was already dinnertime.

Kurenai then took Yagyu and the other two out for dinner.

By the time we left the restaurant, night had already fallen.

After spending half a day strolling around Xi Ri Hong, it was time to head back to rest.

On their way back, the three of them passed a tavern.

Looking at the GG brand's new products at the entrance, Kurenai Yuhi, who hadn't had a drink in a long time since being defeated by Raiga Kurosugi, suddenly felt a bit hungry.

Thinking of how she was instantly killed by Itachi Uchiha, and then thinking of how Yagyu managed to rescue her from the unconscious state when facing two S-rank rogue ninjas, Yagyu's strength might already far surpass hers.

Adding to the unexpected events of the day, Kurenai Yuhi, who had lost all her teacherly authority in front of Yagyu, gritted her teeth and said to Yagyu and Karin, "Wait here for me, I'm going inside to buy something."

After saying that, Kurenai Yuhi walked into the tavern.

Yes, she chose to give up.

Since the student's strength is already far superior to hers, and she has no authority as a teacher, why bother to cultivate diligently and why give up drinking?

Yes, that's right... It's all Yagyu's fault!

Kurenai Yuhi, having found herself an excuse, had a gleam in her eyes.

Seeing Kurenai practically skipping and jumping inside, Yagyu's lips curled into a slight smile as he said to Karin, "Let's go in too."

"OK."

Karin didn't ask any more questions, but obediently nodded.

"Lady Tsunade! Lady Jiraiya!"

The two had just entered when they heard Kurenai Yuhi exclaim in surprise.

Looking in the direction the sound came from, I saw a man and a woman sitting at the bar, drinking.

Beside them was a blond-haired boy eating, and a black-haired woman with an innocent appearance who was holding a piglet in her arms.

These four people were Jiraiya, Naruto, Tsunade, and Shizune.

"Who are you……"

Tsunade, her face flushed from drinking, looked at Kurenai Yuhi in front of her and murmured through her drunken eyes, "The daughter of the Crimson Clan?"

"It's me, Lady Tsunade."

Kurenai nodded excitedly, looking like a little fangirl.

"Long time no see, I didn't expect you to have grown so much."

Tsunade swirled the wine in her glass and asked, "Do you drink? Want a drink?"

"OK!"

Kurenai nodded immediately. This was a chance to drink with her idol, a privilege not everyone gets.

"Huh... Yagyu, what are you doing here?"

At that moment, Naruto's voice rang out.

His voice drew everyone's attention, causing Kurenai Yuhi to slightly cover her forehead.

She was so engrossed in following celebrities that she almost forgot about her own students.

"This hair color..."

Looking at Karin next to Yagyu, Tsunade and Jiraiya, who were already somewhat drunk, suddenly had a glint in their eyes.

As if sensing their scrutiny, Karin subconsciously shrank back and quietly moved her body behind Yagyu.

Karin's heart was in turmoil as she secretly glanced at Jiraiya and Tsunade.

These two have incredible chakra!

"Naruto?"

Yagyu feigned surprise as he looked at Naruto, asking instead of answering, "What are you doing here?"

"I came out with the perverted sage to find this old woman," Naruto said honestly, pointing at Tsunade with his chopsticks.

Click!

The wine glass in Tsunade's hand shattered instantly, and the shadow on her forehead obscured her eyes, revealing only a flash of cold light.

Naruto suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and involuntarily shuddered.

"The child is just being silly, Tsunade, don't be angry, let's drink..."

Jiraiya quickly stepped in to warm things up, with a fawning smile on his face. He got up, grabbed a new sake cup, and filled Tsunade's cup with sake.

"snort!"

Tsunade snorted coldly, but did not lose her temper.

After learning Naruto's identity, she saw Kushina Uzumaki's reflection in Naruto.

This kid's personality is just like her mother's, except she's not very bright.

Tsunade picked up her wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. She continued to scrutinize Karin, who was hiding behind Yagyu, her eyes growing brighter with each glance.

Such a vibrant life force, and that red hair feature, it's so similar...it's just too similar!

Could it be that after all these decades, there are still descendants of that clan in the ninja world?

Seeing that Tsunade was staring at Karin, Jiraiya was just about to find a topic to help her when he suddenly seemed to remember something and his eyes lit up. "By the way, Tsunade, let me introduce you to someone."

After saying that, Jiraiya beckoned to Yagyu and said, "Boy, come here for a moment."

"Lord Jiraiya, Lady Tsunade."

Yagyu walked over and greeted them respectfully.

His polite demeanor contrasted sharply with Naruto's rudeness, which made Tsunade and Shizune, who were standing next to him, feel an immediate liking for this tall and handsome young man.

At this moment, Naruto asked curiously, "Yagyu, do you also know the Perverted Sage and the others?"

"Naruto, are you serious?"

Yagyu looked at Naruto speechlessly and said, "Second-year historical figures, the Third Hokage's personal disciple, one of the three legends of the Second Shinobi World War, the legendary Sannin, these are big figures from the textbooks."

"I see."

Naruto slapped his palm with the back of his hand, looking as if he had just realized something.

"Hahaha...Young man, you are truly insightful, no wonder you are the top student."

Jiraiya burst into laughter, thoroughly enjoying Yagyu's flattery.

Tsunade and Shizune looked at Yagyu with eyes full of admiration.

Especially with Naruto, the bottom of the class, as a foil, Yagyu, the top student, shines even brighter.

Just as Tsunade was drinking and preparing to speak, wanting to exchange a few words with Yagyu.

Jiraiya, who was standing nearby, suddenly said, "Tsunade, this young man's name is Yagyu, and he is one of your clansmen!"

"Pfft...cough cough..."

Tsunade spat out a mouthful of alcohol, choking and coughing repeatedly.

Her already flushed face turned even redder.

However, she ignored the discomfort and crushed the wine glass again, staring coldly at Jiraiya, and said in a deep voice, "Jiraiya, are you serious?"
