Naruto: Experience Pain, Start by Copying the Entire Shinobi World

The first rays of morning light pierced through the window, casting soft dappled patterns on the tatami mats.

Qian Xuan woke up first.

The hangover and the exhaustion of a night of intense fighting had faded away, leaving only an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and peace.

He turned to the side and looked at the woman who was still fast asleep beside him.

Tsunade lay on her side, her long golden hair cascading down the pillow like a waterfall, covering most of her face.

In her sleep, she was devoid of her usual assertiveness and irritability; her breathing was steady, and her sleeping face was serene, like an innocent young girl.

Qianxuan's heart was incredibly soft.

He carefully leaned closer, brushed the strands of hair from her cheek, and gently placed a kiss on her smooth, full forehead.

Tsunade's eyelashes trembled.

She slowly opened her beautiful brown eyes, her gaze initially filled with the confusion of just waking up. Then, the crazy and shameful memories of last night surged up like a tide.

boom--

Her face turned red from her cheeks to her ears at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Tsunade sat up abruptly, instinctively pulling up the blanket to cover herself completely, leaving only her eyes, filled with panic and shame, staring intently at Sengen.

Qianxuan leaned against the headboard, his hands behind his head, his eyes half-closed, and a smug, self-satisfied smile on his face.

Good morning, Tsunade.

"Shut...shut up!"

Tsunade's voice trembled and became hoarse without her even realizing it.

She stared at the shirtless man before her, his chest still bearing the scratches she had inflicted the previous night, her mind a complete blank.

Why?

Why did I, inexplicably, climb into this bastard's bed last night? And... and do that kind of thing?

It must be an illusion!

Tsunade reached a conclusion in her heart with absolute certainty.

That's right, it must be some unknown, evil Uchiha who cast some despicable genjutsu on me!

It was all to shake his resolve as one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha!

That must be it!

Thinking of this, Tsunade's mood calmed down considerably, and she looked at Senxuan with a hint of sympathy.

This poor fellow must have been under an illusion spell, that's why he...

"What are you thinking about?"

Seeing her fascinating expressions, Qianxuan smiled and moved closer.

"Are you reminiscing about last night? It's okay, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

"roll!"

Tsunade instantly lost her composure, grabbed a pillow and threw it at his face.

Qianxuan reached out and grabbed the pillow, then pulled her back into his arms.

"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore."

He rested his chin on the top of her head, gently inhaling the fragrance of her hair, his voice becoming much softer.

Let me help you get dressed.

Tsunade froze in his arms, feeling the warmth of his chest and the steady heartbeat. The shame and anger she felt dissipated without her realizing it.

She hummed in response, her voice barely audible, like a mosquito's hum.

Qianxuan helped her get dressed, his movements clumsy but earnest.

When the last button was fastened, he suddenly cupped her face in his hands and made her look at him.

"Tsunade, I have to go to the Land of Water."

Tsunade was stunned. Looking into his eyes, which had suddenly become incredibly serious, her heart sank.

"The water gate crew is over there, I'm very worried."

Qianxuan's voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable resolve.

"There are my companions there whom I must protect."

……

The atmosphere in the restaurant was eerie.

One dining table, four people, each with four pairs of different styles, but all with equally heavy dark circles under their eyes.

Qian Xuan was in high spirits, a silly grin on his face, humming a little tune as he brought baskets of steaming soup dumplings to the table.

Jingyin kept her head down, her cheeks flushed, and sipped her porridge slowly, her eyes darting around, not daring to look at the two people in the main seats.

Yekura, on the other hand, had a completely different attitude.

She sat there with an air of authority, her gaze sweeping back and forth between Sengen and Tsunade. Her eyes were like those of a mother leopard that had locked onto its prey, full of aggression and undisguised fighting spirit.

Tsunade, whom she was watching, was like a walking iceberg.

She sat there expressionless, radiating a chilling aura that said "keep away," poking at the steamed buns in her bowl with her chopsticks as if they weren't buns, but the face of some bastard.

A breakfast was fraught with undercurrents and lurking danger.

Finally, Qianxuan finished the last mouthful of porridge, wiped his mouth, and stood up.

"I'm full, I need to go to the Hokage Building."

"I'll go with you."

Tsunade spoke almost immediately, her voice cold and hard, as if giving an order.

Qian Xuan was stunned for a moment, then a familiar, cheeky smile appeared on his face.

He walked to Tsunade's side, leaned down, and whispered in her ear:

"Tsunade, do you think... my mouth might get athlete's foot?"

The air froze.

Yekura and Shizune both stopped what they were doing and turned to look at them.

Tsunade slowly, very slowly, turned her head. A flush of burning red first appeared on her icy face, but it was quickly replaced by overwhelming rage.

She smiled.

His smile was both incredibly bright and incredibly dangerous.

What do you think?

next second.

"Bang!"

Qianxuan transformed into a perfect humanoid cannonball once again, and with a piercing scream, flew out of the restaurant window, crashing into the courtyard and creating a familiar crater.

Ye Cang watched this scene, silently picked up a steamed bun, and a knowing smile appeared on his lips.

He was pondering how to win over Qianxuan.

……

Hokage Building.

With a freshly made panda eye and two wads of cotton stuffed in his nostrils, Qianxuan limped into the Hokage's office.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, with a pipe dangling from his lips, looked at his miserable state and his eye twitched involuntarily.

"You... you've provoked Tsunade again?"

"Lord Hokage, what are you saying?"

Qian Xuan immediately stood up straight, his face radiating righteousness.

"I'm doing this for training purposes; it's high-intensity physical combat training!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, too lazy to expose him, exhaled a smoke ring.

"Speak, what is it?"

"Reporting to the Hokage!"

Qianxuan's expression instantly turned serious.

"I request permission to proceed to the front lines of the Land of Water!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand, holding the pipe, froze in mid-air.

He looked up, his cloudy eyes filled with shock.

"What did you say?"

"The Third Raikage has died in battle, and the great war is about to end. But it is precisely at times like these that the front lines are fraught with danger."

Qianxuan's voice was steady and powerful.

"Minato Namikaze is my best friend, and the members of the Minato Squad are all important comrades to me. I can't just stand by and watch them be in danger while I enjoy a comfortable life in the village!"

"I request permission to go to the Land of Water and fight alongside them!"

The office was deathly silent.

Hiruzen Sarutobi just stared at him for a very long time, as if he were meeting this young man for the first time.

Lazy, afraid of death, and only act when there's a profit to be made...

At this moment, all the labels attached to Shuo Ye Qianxuan seemed to shatter.

This kid...

Has she changed her personality?

"good!"

After a long while, Hiruzen Sarutobi slammed his pipe heavily on the table, his eyes flashing with approval.

"Truly a hero of Konoha! It's admirable that he has such a heart to protect his comrades!"

"I approve!"
