The Byakugan Princess of Konoha

That's not right either. If Danzo really used Kotoamatsukami on Naruto, Naruto would have become Danzo's man long ago.

So, is the Will of Fire actually an ultimate illusion that surpasses even the gods?

Tsunade challenged Naruto to a duel and then taught him a lesson with just one finger.

Naruto's talk-no-jutsu finally came in handy, and his words, "Becoming Hokage is my dream," instantly silenced Tsunade.

In the end, Tsunade ended her conflict with Naruto with a bet.

Jiraiya looked at Tsunade and invited, "Tsunade... how about we go for a drink? It's been a long time."

After saying that, without giving Tsunade a chance to refuse, he turned to Shizune and said, "Shizune, you take Hinata and Naruto and the others to find a place to rest for the night!"

Jingyin bowed slightly and said, "Okay!"

On the way to the inn, Shizune seemed preoccupied. Hinata started a conversation and asked, "Shizune-nee, do you think the Perverted Sage can catch up with Lady Tsunade?"

"Huh?" Shizune was taken aback by his words, her face turning red as she said, "Don't... don't talk nonsense!"

Hinata smiled and said, "I think they're quite a good match. He's single and she's unmarried, so why don't we play matchmaker for them?"

"They're all getting on in years, it's really worrying."

Shizune lowered her head and remained silent; Orochimaru's appearance had plunged her into panic.

The title of the Three Legendary Sannin might not mean much to Hinata's generation of ninjas, but to Shizune's generation, they were legendary figures who shook the ninja world.

Hinata sighed. She finally had a nice older sister, but she turned out to be a serious and boring guy.

On the contrary, Naruto exclaimed loudly, his face full of disbelief, "The perverted sage actually likes that violent old woman?"

"I absolutely will not agree to this marriage!"

Hinata glanced at Naruto helplessly and retorted, "What does the Perverted Sage's marriage have to do with you?"

I found a hotel and booked three rooms in a quiet place.

"Naruto, you can sleep in the same room as Jiraiya. Hinata, please sleep in the same room as me. Don't worry, I don't have any bad habits!"

Shizune said somewhat embarrassedly, "Our money was all gambled away by Lady Tsunade, so..."

"It's okay!"

Hinata smiled and said, "I also want to sleep in the same room as Shizune-nee. If Lady Tsunade returns to the village, we will be colleagues from now on."

Shizune asked in surprise, "Huh? Colleague?"

Hinata reminded her, "When Shizune left the village, she was probably still a Chunin! I just took the Chunin Exams, and the village leaders have already agreed to promote me to Chunin. As for Lady Tsunade, I'll leave it to you, Shizune."

In the original work, Shizune was a Jonin, but she was actually quite young when she left the village with Tsunade. She was probably promoted to Jonin after returning to the village.

Shizune smiled gently and said, "Alright! I'll remind Lady Tsunade!"

Although Hinata seems a bit unreliable, in Shizune's opinion, Hinata is the first person to acknowledge Tsunade as Hokage.

"Whoo~"

Hinata collapsed onto the bed, feeling utterly exhausted.

However, today's harvest was quite substantial.

First, she acknowledged Tsunade as her boss, and then she got involved with Shizune, the future Hokage's secretary... after all, they'd be sharing a bed tonight.

From now on, I, Hinata Otsutsuki, can finally walk sideways in Konoha.

Hmph! Konoha will one day be surnamed Otsutsuki...

The next day at noon, Hinata was still fast asleep in bed when the window was suddenly pulled open from the outside with a 'click'. Jiraiya, sitting on the windowsill, said irritably, "Hey, what time is it? How come you can sleep even longer than Ton-Ton..."

Hinata groggily opened her eyes, and upon seeing Jiraiya on the windowsill, she was stunned for a moment before shouting, "There's a pervert!!!"

"I'd rather die!"

Jiraiya waved his hands repeatedly and hurriedly said, "I have something important to discuss with you."

Hinata paused for a moment: "Is this serious business?"

Jiraiya nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yes! We must find Orochimaru before the time he and Tsunade agreed to meet!"

Hinata asked gleefully, "Then kill him?"

Jiraiya paused for a moment, then said softly, "If possible..."

Hinata was somewhat dissatisfied, staring intently at Jiraiya, and pressed him, word by word, "Perverted Sage, there's one question you must answer truthfully!"

Jiraiya nodded: "Go ahead and ask!"

Hinata asked with a mixture of curiosity and excitement, "Perverted Sage, do you like Tsunade or Orochimaru? Which of them is your true love?"

"puff--"

Jiraiya nearly died of anger upon hearing this.

I, Jiraiya, am male and have a preference for women. How could I possibly like that disgusting guy, Orochimaru!

Hinata leaned closer and whispered, "Perverted Sage, you're in danger right now! I was just talking to Shizune yesterday about setting you up with Tsunade, but if you like Orochimaru..."

Jiraiya roared in fury, "I've always liked Tsunade, who would like Orochimaru...!"

Before Jiraiya could finish speaking, Hinata's door was flung open with a bang, and Shizune and Tsunade stood silently in the doorway...

Chapter 118 On the Possibility of Jiraiya and Tsunade

Although they had agreed to go with Jiraiya to cause trouble for Orochimaru, they didn't actually set off until five days later.

That's horrible!

Hinata was also seeing Tsunade's monstrous punch for the first time. With one punch, Jiraiya was knocked unconscious on the spot and had to lie in bed for five days to recover from his injuries.

Five days ago...

Tsunade and Shizune were arguing outside the hotel when they heard Hinata's shout. Tsunade and Shizune rushed to Hinata's room.

As soon as the door was opened, Hinata was seen wearing pajamas, her face slightly flushed, while Jiraiya, that old lecher, was sitting on the windowsill.

In an instant, Tsunade conjured up a multitude of images in her mind.

A minor girl was sleeping in her room when a white-haired, lecherous old man climbed in through the window, intending to commit an indecent act against her...

What's most infuriating is that some white-haired old lecher keeps shouting that the person he likes is Tsunade.

So Tsunade, driven by malice, decided to kill Jiraiya on the spot to silence him.

If it weren't for Shizune stopping him, Jiraiya might not have survived to the start of Shippuden...

Walking down the street, Hinata looked up at Jiraiya and asked, "Can you still fight like this?"

Jiraiya kept rubbing his chest. If it weren't for Shizune's decent medical ninjutsu, Jiraiya might have been bedridden for months.

"It's nothing! What's a little pain to a real man like you?"

Hinata sighed helplessly. Jiraiya really was the most reckless person in the entire ninja world.

"Actually, I noticed that Tsunade blushed a little when she heard you say you liked her that day."

"You lecherous immortal, you have a chance!"

Jiraiya exclaimed happily, "Really?"

Hinata smiled smugly and said, "Of course! Want me to teach you a few moves?"

"You?" Jiraiya glanced at Hinata and scoffed, "What do you know, you little brat?"

Hinata looked at Jiraiya with disdain and said, "Perverted Sage, your thinking is really outdated! In our generation, some people were already dating when they were seven or eight years old. Don't underestimate me just because I'm young; I actually know more than you do."

"When I was in school, I had a lot of admirers."

"I'm single because I don't like them, you're single because nobody likes you, we're different!"

Jiraiya felt like he had been hit by tons of damage.

Jiraiya became interested and asked curiously, "Then tell me, how should I pursue Tsunade?"

Hinata, with the air of a 'love expert,' said smugly, 'Actually, at Tsunade's age, don't be fooled by her youthful appearance; she's already old inside. What she's looking for now is a strong and reliable shoulder to lean on.'

"And you..."

Hinata looked at Jiraiya and said with a smile, "Although you may seem unserious on the outside, you are actually more reliable than many people. You are also an old friend of Lady Tsunade, which gives you a natural advantage."

Jiraiya scoffed, "Kid, you don't understand! The more familiar two people are with each other, the less likely they are to get together... because they're too familiar!"

Hinata scoffed, "You just don't understand, old man!"

"Lady Tsunade is getting on in years, and no young person would be interested in her. She also doesn't have time to get to know new people. This... is your chance!"

"As long as you act reliable and appear when Lady Tsunade is vulnerable, she will eventually fall for you!"

Jiraiya pondered Hinata's words and felt that they made some sense.

"Still haven't found Orochimaru?"

Jiraiya changed the subject. He wasn't as optimistic as Hinata; Tsunade was probably still thinking about those two...

"What's the rush? We've found it, let's go!"

A private house on the outskirts of Tanbata Street.

Will she say yes?

Kabuto said somewhat uncertainly, "If she agrees, your hand can be healed, but what if she doesn't accept?"

At this time, Kabuto Yakushi was still a spy for multiple parties, lacking a sense of self and unable to find direction in life.

He was first sent by Orochimaru to infiltrate Sasori's side, and then controlled by Sasori to get close to Orochimaru. He also had contact with Danzo of Konoha, making him a spy for multiple parties.

However, this time when he went to Otogakure with Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi saw many interesting things.

Orochimaru is truly talented, and his talent gradually attracted Kabuto Yakushi. In particular, Kabuto was captivated by Orochimaru's ideals.

Learn all the ninjutsu in the world, and pursue the truth...

If we find the truth, will we be able to find ourselves again?

Orochimaru, his face covered in cold sweat, said in a hoarse voice with a hint of ruthlessness, "Then we'll have no choice but to force her to submit."
