Not long after the two advisors returned to Konoha, Jiraiya also returned to the village with Minato.
It made Kizaru feel a little sad. After Minato, the little boy, returned to the village, the first place he went to was not home, but the Senju clan's territory.
After returning to the village with carefully selected gifts, Minato did not go to see his adoptive father and brother Kizaru for the first time. Instead, he went to Kushina with the gifts.
After all, the embarrassing thing is that when Minato came to visit, Kizaru also happened to arrive at the Senju clan, ready to find Tsunade.
Standing at the door of the Senju family's mansion, Minato greeted Kizaru slightly awkwardly.
"Brother Kizaru, I'm back! Hahaha!"
Looking at Minato who was holding a gift, his face was slightly red, and he was smiling awkwardly, Kizaru had an inexplicable feeling that his own pig was being humiliated by cabbage.
Putting his right hand on Minato's head and rubbing his yellow hair vigorously, Kizaru said with a smile: "Minato, your adoptive father is waiting for your return at home every day."
"Hehehe!" Minato laughed awkwardly and explained, "Brother Kizaru, after delivering the gifts, I will go home."
While the two were talking, the door was finally opened, which relieved Minato's embarrassment.
"Kizaru!" With a happy smile on his face, Tsunade opened the door, focusing entirely on Kizaru and ignoring Minato beside him.
Standing aside, looking at Kizaru and Tsunade who were looking at each other, Minato's eyes widened, feeling that he had discovered something incredible.
Poor Jiraiya-sensei!
"Water...Minato?" After looking at Kizaru for a while, Tsunade finally noticed Minato, "You and Jiraiya are back!"
"Tsunade-sister!" Minato greeted warmly with a smile, "Jiraiya-sensei and I just returned to the village."
Looking at the beautifully wrapped gift that Minato was holding in his hand, Tsunade guessed something and a teasing smile appeared on her face.
"Are you here to give me a gift?"
"I..." His mouth opened, and Minato didn't know what to answer.
"Hahaha!" Tsunade laughed, finding Minato's reaction extremely interesting, "Kushina is in the room, go in and find her!"
"I...I," Minato touched the back of his head shyly, without making any excuses, "Thank you, Tsunade-nee."
After bending down to thank him, Minato walked into the mansion and walked towards the room where Kushina lived.
"Children these days are getting more and more precocious." Looking at Minato's back, Tsunade said with emotion.
Taking a step forward, Kizaru naturally hugged Tsunade's waist, smiled and echoed: "Yes!"
Hearing Kizaru's agreement, looking at his smiling face, and thinking that he and Minato were in the same year, Tsunade couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"You're a precocious guy!"
"Hoo ho ho! Me! I just like beautiful big sisters." As he spoke, Kizaru hugged Tsunade and walked into the house.
"Take your hands away, Naoju and the others are here." Tsunade said after closing the door.
With a regretful expression, Kizaru withdrew his right hand and said, "Tsunade, let's spend this New Year's Eve together!"
"I still want to stay with Naoki and Kushina." Tsunade was a little moved, but hesitantly refused.
"Take them with you! Come to Shimura's house to spend New Year's Eve together. I'm going to call Orochimaru and Jiraiya, and let's all have fun together." Kizaru said his plan.
"But..." Tsunade was still a little hesitant. She always felt that the progress was too fast, which was a bit bad.
"We'll finish the meal together, and you can play cards with Sister Keiko and the others to stay up late." Kizaru made a decisive move.
Feeling excited again, Tsunade hesitated for a moment before agreeing: "Okay! Kushina probably also wants to celebrate the New Year with Minato."
"Yes, Kushina really wants to!" Kizaru said teasingly, looking down at Tsunade who was trying to remain calm.
Angrily giving Kizaru an elbow, Tsunade quickened her pace and walked towards the house.
"Slow down, give Minato and the others some time." Kizaru stepped up his long legs and followed Tsunade, reminding him loudly.
"I'll go get the rope tree away." Tsunade, who was happy to help Minato and Kushina get together, replied.
When Naoki was forcibly taken away from the house by Tsunade, he was very puzzled and a little bit dissatisfied.
One of my Chunin Exam team members came to visit me after returning to the village, but my sister called me away without any sense. It was really too much.
Minato would be extremely embarrassed if he was left alone with Kushina.
"Sister, Minato is visiting me today. It's too much for you to call me away and leave Minato alone."
In the yard, Naoki complained to Tsunade.
Crossing her hands on her chest and looking at her slow brother, Tsunade looked desperately at Kizaru beside her.
Teach this stupid kid a lesson!
Smiling and nodding, Kizaru took a step forward and walked in front of the rope tree.
"Naoki, your sister wants you to buy some food so that you can entertain Minato in the evening."
Nodding in sudden realization, Shengshu clapped his hands and said quickly: "I understand."
After saying that, Nao Shu looked at Tsunade, who had a complicated expression and felt hopeless in her heart, "Sister, I'm going to buy groceries."
After saying that, Shengshu ran towards the gate.
"Have you brought any money?" Kizaru reminded kindly, looking at the back of the rope tree.
"I have!" Without stopping, Shengshu flew away.
Watching the rope tree run away, Kizaru smiled and looked at Tsunade, indicating that the problem was solved.
Taking a deep breath and creating a wave, Tsunade glared at Kizaru and said, "I asked you to teach him, not tease him!"
"The rope tree is pretty cute, isn't it?"
"He is going to be 14 years old soon. When will he start to get better?"
"How about letting him stay with Jiraiya for a while?"
"I just want him to grow up, I don't want him to become a pervert!" Tsunade said angrily.
"Oh ho ho! Jiraiya will be sad to hear this!" Kizaru said jokingly as he stepped forward to hug Tsunade again.
Outside the house, Kizaru and Tsunade interacted closely, and inside the house, Minato and Kushina's progress was also quite good.
"Are these gifts for me?" Kushina asked excitedly, looking at the three large boxes of gifts on the table.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In all the years since she has been in Konoha, this is the first time Kushina has received a gift from someone of her own age.
"I didn't know what you liked, so I just bought some." Minato looked at Kushina and said softly.
"Thank you, Minato!" Kushina was very happy after receiving the gift. She looked at Minato with a smile.
When she made eye contact with Minato, Kushina's face felt a little hot for some reason.
"You should take a look at the gift first! If you don't like it, I'll..."
Shaking her head at Minato, Kushina said with some emotion: "This is the first gift I received from a friend after coming to Konoha. No matter what it is, I like it very much!"
"Kushina, you will make more and more friends, and you will definitely become a ninja recognized by everyone in the future!" Minato said encouragingly.
Kushina also firmly believed in this, she nodded firmly, "I will definitely become Hokage in the future!"
"Come on!" As Kizaru's younger brother, Minato knew how difficult this dream was, but he still chose to cheer for Kushina's dream.
"Yeah! Let's work hard together!" Kushina smiled happily and stretched out her right fist.
Minato also stretched out his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and touched Kushina lightly.
"Minato, you are my first friend! You are also the first person to support my dream. I will always remember it!" Looking at Minato, Kushina said seriously.
"Because I like to see a confident Kushina! I like how confident you are!" Minato said sincerely.
"Hehehe!" She smiled and showed her canine teeth. Kushina was really happy today.
Following Kushina's laughter, Minato also laughed, and the warm smile of the sun filled his face.
As Minato and Jiraiya return to the village, as time goes by, the village's New Year atmosphere becomes stronger and stronger.
Under Kizaru's organization and invitation, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Nagato's family, and Scorpion's family all agreed to spend the night together at the Shimura family's house on the 31st.
Matt Dai and Hatake Sakumo had no choice but to stay in the hospital to take care of their wife because of her poor health and the approaching due date.
In order for the two couples to take care of each other, Kizaru and Tsunade specially arranged their wives in the same ward.
Matt Dai's wife's due date is around January 1st, and Hatake Sakumo's wife's due date is around January 3rd, which is very close.
Maybe, the two of them hope to give birth to a child on the same day.
What a wonderful fate!
On December 31st, in the afternoon, Kizaru went to the hospital early to accompany Tsunade to complete the last day of work of the year.
By the way, Kizaru and Tsunade visited Hatake Sakumo and Matt Dai who were accompanying their wives in the ward.
"In the evening, I will have someone bring dinner to you. You don't have to prepare it." Kizaru reminded him while standing in the ward.
"Kizaru, please excuse me!" Hatake Sakumo thanked him without rejecting Kizaru's kindness, but silently keeping it in mind.
"Teacher, for your kindness, I...I..." Matt Dai, who was full of emotion, cried with emotion, "I will train hard and repay your kindness!"
"Dai, you don't have to be like this! Taking good care of your wife and future children is the best reward for me." Kizaru stepped forward to help Matt Dai, who was bent down in gratitude, and said with a smile.
After sniffing hard, Matt Dai wiped his tears and showed his white and neat teeth to Kizaru.
"Stop a man's youth and dignity, I will try my best to repay the teacher's kindness!"
If there was a specific numerical value for favorability, the numerical value of Matt Dai at this moment would definitely be off the charts.
Not only Matt Dai, but also Hatake Sakumo's favorability value for Kizaru is also extremely high.
It's just that compared to Matt Dai, Hatake Sakumo's emotional expression is more restrained.
He won't say anything, he will only show his heart with actions. As early as when Kizaru saved his wife, Hatake Sakumo swore in his heart that he would become the sharpest weapon in Kizaru's hands in his life.
A sharp knife.
When Kizaru becomes Hokage, Hatake Sakumo and Matt Dai will become his two most loyal generals.
Standing next to Kizaru, looking at the expressions of the two people, Tsunade sighed in her heart.
My little man is getting more and more powerful! He will definitely become the greatest Hokage in Konoha!
Withdrawing her gaze, Tsunade looked up at the smiling Kizaru, her heart filled with love and pride.
Such an outstanding guy belongs to me!
The main house of the Shimura clan was very lively today, with children playing, adults chatting, and clan members preparing for New Year's Eve. It was a lively and peaceful scene.
Everyone has happy smiles on their faces. They are happy for the arrival of the New Year and look forward to a bright future.
Kazuya, Nagato, Yahiko, Konan, and the younger children of the Shimura clan, all of similar age, were happily playing games together.
Originally, Kizaru also invited the pharmacist Nonou, but the little girl wanted to spend the night with her friends at the orphanage, so she declined the invitation.
Kizaru didn't care about the rejection of the pharmacist Nonou. Instead, he asked people to send a lot of New Year's supplies to the orphanage so that the children could have a rich New Year.
The older ones, such as Minato, Naoki, Kushina, Yoshihiko, Tanin, and Yuki, who had become ninjas, gathered in Kizaru's yard, chatting together and exchanging experiences after becoming ninjas.
experience.
Among them, Yoshihiko, who was taken in by Danzo for training, has the richest experience. Today, he appears to be more mature compared to others.
Shintaro, who did not become a ninja and was responsible for the family business with the third elder, followed Keiko and helped her arrange the clan members and make final preparations for New Year's Eve.
As we grow older, everyone has embarked on different paths in life, but what remains the same are the feelings accumulated when they were young and the respect and love for Brother Kizaru.
In another courtyard, adults sat together in twos and threes, chatting with smiles on their faces.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Scorpion's parents, Nagato's parents, Jiraiya, Orochimaru, the three elders, Danzo, and the ninjas of the Shimura clan are all
In this yard.
Perhaps because of the arrival of the New Year, or perhaps because of the lively atmosphere, Danzo's face today became a little less gloomy, and the smile on his face became much more peaceful.
"Why hasn't the little monkey come back yet?" In the room, on the right side of Danzo, the elder, who was getting older, was developing more and more like an old naughty boy.
"He went to the hospital to pick up Tsunade." Having said this, the smile on Danzo's face lost a bit.
Thinking about what he had ridiculed before, that family was unlucky enough to marry a violent woman like Tsunade, and the good times were coming to an end.
Unexpectedly, the clown turned out to be me?
In the end, the person with Tsunade turned out to be her most beloved nephew!
What a crime!
Knowing Kizaru's temper and knowing that his own persuasion was useless, Danzo did not ask for trouble by trying to persuade Kizaru.
Now Danzo has already thought about it. He can't change the outcome anyway, so he might as well accept the reality, lie down and enjoy the whipping of life!
After all, looking at it from another perspective, as the granddaughter of the First Hokage and a medical master who has saved many ninjas, Tsunade's political capital is quite huge.
When Tsunade and Kizaru are together, they are a perfect match, a strong alliance!
With Tsunade as his wife, not only will Kizaru's position as Hokage's heir be firmly established, but even when he ascends to the position of Hokage in the future, he will receive more support.
You must know that the Senju clan is not dead, they just gave up their surname, disbanded their families, and actively integrated into the common people.
Among the civilian ninjas in Konoha, at least one-third of them have the blood of Senju.
From a family perspective, the Thousand Hands Clan is no longer there, but from a bloodline and spiritual perspective, the Thousand Hands Clan has become even larger.
"It's a good thing that the little monkey and Princess Tsunade are together, don't mess around! Danzo!" As people grow older, the elder noticed the slight change in Danzo's expression.
"I support them!" Danzo expressed his attitude.
"If you mess around and get beaten to death by a little monkey, I won't collect your body for you." The elder warned in a joking tone.
His face turned ugly, Danzo glanced at the great elder beside him, "Don't worry, I will die behind you! Old guy!"
"Hahaha! You can't say for sure, maybe you will die earlier than me!" The great elder laughed mischievously and said back.
I am less than 50 years old this year, and the old guy is almost 80 years old. This good guy wants to make me die early!
