Natsume was at Tsunade's place, mainly for training and being teased.
As for Ena Uzumaki, it was all about having fun, and he took the initiative.
"Karin, read your book properly," Natsume said as he ruffled her red hair.
He felt that he'd caught on to Tsunade's habit of patting people on the head.
Maybe it was because Konoha Village was a place where people often patted others' heads.
Karin's little face showed a look of hesitation.
She didn't want to read the book, but she liked it when Natsume ruffled her hair.
"Okay, I got it," she finally agreed.
"Brother won't disturb you. I'll come check on you later."
Natsume turned around, left the study, and closed the door behind him. Then he headed to another room.
Not long ago, he'd specially ordered several sets of clothes for Ena Uzumaki.
She'd changed into them today, and he was quite looking forward to seeing her.
Natsume pushed the door open and was immediately amazed.
Ena Uzumaki had changed into the clothes.
Her long hair had been changed to short, pink-tinged hair. Under her black-and-white maid dress, a pair of white over-the-knee socks peeked out.
Seeing Natsume, she lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, dipped into a slight curtsy, and said shyly, "Master."
She was cosplaying Ram from *Re: Zero Starting Life in Another World*.
However, her personality was quite different.
But Natsume was already quite satisfied.
What more could he ask for when he had such an obedient real-life doll?
"You look amazing," Natsume nodded and complimented.
Ena Uzumaki secretly let out a sigh of relief. As long as she hadn't disappointed him.
"Well, you look a bit too mature," Natsume noticed the incongruity.
Although Ena Uzumaki was only twenty-three, Ram in the anime looked like a teenager.
Thankfully, this was the world of Naruto, and there was a ninjutsu called Transformation Jutsu.
Under Natsume's guidance, Ena Uzumaki finally looked very true to the character.
Since it was a cosplay, taking the pictures was a must.
And there were cameras in the world of Naruto.
"Get ready," Natsume ordered. After hesitating for a few seconds, Ena Uzumaki showed a disgusted look and said coldly.
"Pervert," the classic line of Ram.
"Great," Natsume quickly took a picture and then asked her to change the pose.
It took a full half-hour to finish taking the pictures.
Ena Uzumaki's face was red all the way to the ears.
Some of the poses were really embarrassing.
"You must be tired. Come over and rest for a while," Natsume patted the sofa.
Ena Uzumaki walked over. Just as she was about to sit beside him, he picked her up.
As the skirt was quite short, her smooth and attractive thighs were instantly exposed.
Natsume gently massaged her.
Ena Uzumaki went as soft as a slime and leaned into his arms.
But she didn't resist. Instead, she quietly enjoyed Natsume's kneading.
Ten minutes later, Ena Uzumaki got up from him and went to change into another set of clothes.
This time, she was cosplaying Ishtar from the game FGO.
Black twin-tails, a gold-white-and-black inner lining, a black foot-stirrup sock on the left leg, and a bare right foot.
It was a look that could really increase one's attack speed.
Just as before, Ena Uzumaki showed herself off in front of Natsume before wrapping up the shoot.
After two sets of clothes, it was already noon.
Ena Uzumaki flopped down on Natsume and said, "Master, I'm a bit tired. Could you give me a massage, please?"
The next day.
At the gate of Konoha Village.
Natsume was still thinking about what had happened the day before.
Ena Uzumaki had only changed into two sets of clothes, and the rest had to be shot after he came back.
He got a taste of the fun a certain photographer named Chen had.
By the way, he fulfilled his dream from his past life.
"Teacher, are we still waiting for someone?"
Kabuto Yakushi asked when he saw that Tsunade had no intention of setting off.
"That old man insisted on stuffing some bodyguards for me."
Tsunade snorted softly, clearly dissatisfied.
They were called bodyguards, but in fact, they were reinforcements.
Hiruzen Sarutobi wanted Tsunade to lead the team to put pressure on Kumogakure and end the war as soon as possible.
As one of the Sannin, it was really a waste to only take three apprentices there.
Not long after, a team came.
The leader was a young man who looked a bit older, with a pair of Byakugan that were particularly eye - catching.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting, Lady Tsunade."
"I didn't expect it to be you, Hiashi."
Tsunade looked surprised.
The Hyuga clan is divided into the main branch and the branch family, but the main branch rarely goes out.
But after thinking about it, she understood why Hiashi Hyuga had appeared.
One, he was a well - known strongman in the ninja world, and his presence in the war was very intimidating.
Two, since it was the end of the war, the danger was not that great. It was suitable for gaining merits and could also enhance the prestige of the Hyuga clan.
In addition, the Uchiha clan was fighting on the front line at this time.
The equally famous Hyuga clan couldn't perform too badly.
Tsunade glanced at the two people not far away and asked, "Rinka, are you here to see us off?"
Natsume thought they looked familiar and soon remembered seeing her at The Ladies' Tea Party last time.
Rinka Hyuga, Hiashi Hyuga's wife.
"Yes, Lady Tsunade."
Rinka Hyuga quickly responded and introduced, "This is my daughter, Hinata Hyuga."
But Hinata Hyuga was staring at Natsume in surprise at this time.
If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, she would have run over.
"Hinata?"
Rinka Hyuga called her name twice, a bit dissatisfied, and said, "Quickly say hello to Lady Tsunade."
"La...Lady Tsunade."
Hinata Hyuga came to her senses and called out timidly.
Love Konoha: Konoha: Starting from Being Adopted by Tsunade (m.)
"Do you know Natsume?"
Tsunade naturally noticed her look and asked.
So his name is Natsume?
What a lovely name!
The big rock in Hinata Hyuga's heart finally fell.
"I saw her getting lost last time and sent her home."
Seeing Hinata Hyuga's hesitant look, Natsume took the initiative to explain.
"So it was you."
Rinka Hyuga was quite surprised. "Hinata told me that a young man helped her, and she wanted to repay him but didn't know who he was."
"What a coincidence!"
Hiashi Hyuga also knew about this matter. He had even punished Tokuma Hyuga for it.
In addition, he noticed that Hinata Hyuga seemed to have a lingering affection for him.
He originally thought that if Hinata Hyuga were an ordinary ninja, he'd put an end to her unrealistic fantasies.
Unexpectedly, she was Tsunade's apprentice.
Well, it wouldn't hurt to maintain a friendly relationship.
After all, they were all part of the Hokage lineage.
As for romantic feelings, Hiashi Hyuga didn't think much about it. After all, they were both too young.
"It's a piece of cake. Don't worry about it."
Natsume waved his hand, then squatted in front of Hinata Hyuga and asked, "Will you get lost again later?"
"Umph."
Hinata Hyuga blushed to the roots of her hair and felt dizzy all over.
Natsume took a step back a bit. If she fainted at this moment, it would be a big problem.
"Hinata is a bit introverted. Please excuse her."
Rinka Hyuga said as she picked up Hinata and continued, "We've already wasted a lot of time. Let's set off quickly."
Hiashi Hyuga nodded. Glancing at his daughter, he was not very satisfied.
Compared with Neji Hyuga, Hinata Hyuga seemed too incompetent.
How could she support the main branch of the Hyuga clan and keep the branch family in check?
He could only hope that after his strict guidance, her character would become stronger.
Tsunade was also looking at Hinata Hyuga.
Her performance just now wasn't just due to her introversion. It seemed more like she had developed a huge crush on Natsume.
Without a doubt, when she grew up, she'd surely fall head-over-heels for him.
Normally, as an adoptive mother or an elder sister figure, she'd be happy to see this scene.
But somehow, she felt a twinge of jealousy.
"Let's go!"
Tsunade snapped out of her thoughts and shouted loudly, "Let's reach the front line within two days!"
The swift and decisive nature of one of the Sannin was fully displayed.
Natsume thought to himself, How cool!
Suddenly, he remembered a saying, "You conquer the world, and I'll conquer you."
That'll do.
I'm gonna be the man behind the Hokage!
