Natsume slept soundly.
Maybe because he was too tired yesterday, he fell into a deep sleep after lying in bed.
He stretched, put on his clothes, and left the room.
"Natsume, are you awake?"
A voice came from the kitchen. It was Tsunade.
"Yeah, I'm awake."
Natsume answered while walking to the kitchen door.
At this moment, Tsunade was still wearing her sleeveless top, but she had put on an apron.
She's unlocked a new 'look': that of a kitchen maid.
I have to say, a beautiful woman looks good in anything.
In his past life, Natsume thought Tsunade's usual dressing style was rather ordinary, but it still couldn't hide her mature charm.
She was like a peach, plump and alluring.
"Go to the bathroom and wash up."
Tsunade said without turning her head.
Natsume opened the bathroom not far away and saw a brand - new toothbrush and plastic cup on the sink.
Obviously, she had prepared them in advance.
He turned to look at Tsunade and was quite touched.
This woman, although bold and hot - tempered, also had a delicate and warm side.
After Natsume finished washing up, Tsunade had also prepared breakfast.
It was rice balls.
"Try them."
Tsunade rested her chin on her hands and studied Natsume's expression with her light - brown eyes.
It was obvious that she cared a lot about his opinion.
Natsume hesitated for a moment, then picked up a rice ball and took a bite. Immediately, a look of distress appeared on his face.
He really wanted to give a good review, but he just couldn't control his natural reaction.
Damn it, what kind of strange thing is this?
It was both salty and sweet, with an indescribable taste.
Being able to make a simple rice ball like this, you're really a genius.
"Not bad."
Natsume gave a typical Chinese way of giving a perfunctory answer.
Tsunade immediately smiled. Of course, she could tell he was insincere.
But he really was so much like him.
Before, Nawaki also used to say the same thing. Even if it tasted bad, he would finish it all.
Tsunade was a bit dazed.
A moment later, her beautiful eyes narrowed into a slit and she said, "Then I'll make them for you every day from now on."
Natsume paused for a moment and remembered three words said by another person in the Natsume family in his past life.
How awful!
Moreover, he couldn't refuse.
Right now was the time to boost their relationship.
Natsume nodded heavily and said, "Okay."
The smile on Tsunade's face became even brighter. She casually picked up a rice ball and ate it.
Well, it really didn't taste good.
That's why she found Natsume more and more pleasing to the eye.
Being able to tolerate her cooking meant he regarded her as family.
Just like her younger brother, Nawaki, used to.
After breakfast, the two of them were about to go out.
Tsunade put on her tea - green coat again.
It was a very classic "look".
There is also a big word 'gambling' on the back.
Well, let's not even talk about her gambling prowess.
Tsunade looked at Natsume and said, "Wait a minute. I'll buy you some new clothes."
"Don't go to the expense."
Natsume instinctively waved his hand and refused.
"No way."
Tsunade took his hand and walked outside, saying, "Your current clothes don't match your cute face at all."
Natsume was slightly stunned.
Well, fancy that!
So you've got the hots for me.
Since you're so honest, I won't pretend anymore.
To be honest, I've also got the hots for you.
After leaving the door, the two walked south and finally stopped in front of Konoha Hospital.
"Lady Tsunade!"
People kept greeting her.
Moreover, they all looked excited, with admiration in their eyes.
Nowadays, the combat power is balanced. The Sannin of Konoha have extremely high prestige.
Tsunade was also recognized as the strongest medical ninja, and in the hospital, she was naturally a god-like existence.
After a while, the two stopped in front of an office.
"Lady Tsunade!"
The middle-aged woman sitting in front of the desk immediately stood up, her tone full of surprise and excitement.
"Kumiko, long time no see."
Tsunade greeted with a smile, then immediately asked, "Where's Shizune?"
"She should be observing a surgery right now. Lady Tsunade, please wait a moment. I'll go and call her."
As Kumiko spoke, she sized up Natsume.
After all, such a beautiful child was quite rare.
But she didn't ask and quickly left the office.
"Natsume."
Tsunade patted the sofa.
Natsume obediently sat down beside her.
"Later, you'll meet a sister named Shizune. She's a relative of an old acquaintance of mine. She has good medical talent, and I plan to take her as my apprentice this time."
Tsunade stroked his short hair and said, "You two have to get along well in the future."
"Yeah, I will."
After arriving at Konoha Hospital, Natsume had guessed that the person Tsunade wanted to see was Shizune.
This character had quite a lot of screen time in the original work.
But basically, she was always tied to Tsunade.
She had a low-key, gentle, and serious personality.
As the Hokage's bodyguard and secretary, she often urged the lazy Tsunade.
Although she was an apprentice, she did the work of a maid and a nag, and was very caring.
Natsume was willing to get in touch with Shizune.
After all, she was a relatively important character in the plot.
In other words, she could provide him with destiny value (a value related to the character's fate in the story).
It was just that like Tsunade, she wasn't currently at a Destiny node (crucial points in a character's fate).
Natsume couldn't do anything for now.
There was also Nonou Yakushi, with whom he had gotten along for three years.
According to the original plot, she would be sent by Tanzo Shimura to Iwagakure as a spy in a few years.
After losing trust, she would be arranged to fight to the death with Kabuto Yakushi and eventually die.
This chapter isn't over!

Due to Natsume's interference, Kabuto Yakushi's fate had changed, but Nonou Yakushi's fate remained the same.
If she failed to gain Tanzo Shimura's trust, she was doomed.
If he wanted to change Nonou Yakushi's fate, he had to start with Tanzo Shimura and let her break free from control.
Although he couldn't do anything about the people around him for the time being, Natsume already had a target.
A dangerous and charming villain, Orochimaru, who had a Schrödinger-like gender.
He was about to face a life-changing Destiny node and defect from Konoha Village.
A few minutes later, Kumiko brought back a young girl.
She had a sweet, delicate face and was dressed in a crisp nurse's uniform.
As soon as she saw Tsunade, her originally calm expression became excited.
"Lady Tsunade!"
Shizune is fourteen years old. After graduating from the Ninja Academy, she has been staying at Konoha Hospital just to wait for Tsunade to come back.
Plus, she has always admired Tsunade, so it's quite normal for her to act like this.
Natsume, standing nearby, suddenly thought of a saying.
Please calm down, young Japanese lady.
"I've heard about your good performance," Tsunade said calmly. "From today on, you'll learn Medical Ninjutsu from me."
Shizune took a deep breath and regained her composure, nodded, and replied, "Yes, Lady Tsunade."
"Kumiko, we're leaving now. We'll chat with you next time."
Tsunade took Natsume's hand and walked out.
Shizune curiously glanced at this strange little boy, then quickly followed up.
"Shizune, his name is Natsume. Well, he's your junior," Tsunade introduced as she walked.
Natsume was very well-behaved. He looked up and called out, "Sister Shizune."
His cute appearance instantly made Shizune's heart skip a beat.
So cute!
She couldn't help but touch his head and said, "Please take care of me in the future."
Natsume was a bit speechless.
Did I travel to the Head-patting Village? Why does everyone like to pat my head?
Especially Tsunade.
Humph, if you like patting my head so much, I'll let you pat someone else's head in the future.
Tsunade took Natsume and Shizune to a clothing store, where she bought three sets of clothes for each of them, and then they went home.
At the door, a short old man was waiting for them.
Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
