"Kushina-nee, Mikoto-nee, aren't we going to wait for Shin-nii?"
Konan asked, her face slightly flushed.
Konan could already guess what had happened. She wasn't the tle girl she used to be.
"What's there to wait for? They're probably not ing back today. Let's eat and sleep,"
Kushina said, a hint of jealousy in her voice as she pouted.
"I told you, Mikoto, I said we shouldn't cook for them anymore. What's the point? We're just wasting time."
Kushina's words echoed through the room as the three women silently fiheir meal before heading to their rooms to rest.
....
The m, Shin woke up in a house made from his Wood Style. Tsunade had already stirred from her sleep and caught Shin staring at her ily.
"Why are you staring at me?"
Tsunade felt a little bashful under his gaze, pushing him lightly in an annoyed manner.
"Because you're beautiful."
Shin replied holy. Sisuransformation, after her unique life-ging experience, she has bee even more alluring than before.
"Oh, really? In that case, which do you think is more beautiful—me, or Kushina and Mikoto?"
Tsunade dropped the bomb with a pyful glint in her eyes. It was a dangerous question—Shin froze for a moment.
If he said Mikoto or Kushina was more beautiful, he'd be digging his own grave. If he said Tsuhen... well, she would tell Kushina and Mikoto, and he would still be in trouble.
"Well, each of you has your own charm. I 't really pare."
Shin answered with a forced smile. He had to avoid offending anyone, and Tsunade didn't push it, though she was a little dissatisfied with the ral response.
"How are you feeling, Tsunade? If yood, we should head back."
Shin asked, though Tsunade's posture was a bit stiff.
Despite being her first time, Tsunade had recovered fairly quickly thanks te Body, but she was still hesitant to go back. The reason was, of course, a bit of shyness.
"No rush. I'm in no hurry." Tsunade responded, but Shin noticed the faint unease in her expression.
"Are you nervous?"
Shin raised an eyebrow, a teasing grin on his face.
"Nervous? What's there to be nervous about?"
Tsuorted, though her words cked vi.
"Then why not go back?" Shin asked, clearly enjoying the banter.
"I just wao spend a little more time aloh you. Is that s?"
Tsunade gave him a hard look but softened a little.
"Alright, alright. I get it."
Shin stopped teasing her, realizing if he pushed any further, she'd likely nd a few punches on him.
....
They stayed until noon, and Tsunade and Shiually made their way back. When they arrived at the house, it was empty, much to Tsunade's relief. She could rex now, not having to fayone just yet.
Not long after, Kushina, Mikoto, and Konaurned, each carrying freshly caught rabbits and mushrooms.
"These rabbits are cute… what a shame they're already dead."
Shin remarked, looking at the unfortunate rabbits, already resigo being their lunch.
"Don't you think this rabbit looks a lot like you?"
Kushina deadpanned, waving the lifeless rabbit in front of him, her dark aura palpable. Shin was a bit scared of her.
But soon enough, Kushina turned away, direg her attention to Tsunade, her voice dripping with subtle accusation.
"Looks like you got your wish, huh?"
Kushina's words were ced with a knowing tosunade's demeanor had shifted, and her slight disfort while walking firmed her suspis.
"That's right."
Tsunade nodded calmly, a small smirk creeping onto her face. She had been embarrassed before, but now that she saw Kushina and Mikoto, her nervousness disappeared.
"You're so shameless about it."
Kushina's fists ched, her eyes narrowing as though ready to challesuo a duel.
"There's nothing shameful about it. Why shouldn't I be proud?" Tsunade rolled her eyes.
"I'm the main wife, Why don't you show some respect?"
Kushina's voice had an edge to it as she leaned forward, her pride clearly on dispy.
"Do you wao bow to you, Kushina?"
"Of course!" Kushina said, raising her .
"Is that so? And who exactly aowledged you as the main wife? Mikoto? Do you think she agrees with that?"
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, gng at Mikoto.
Kushina immediately shot a look at Mikoto, silently pleading for her support, but Mikoto only gnced back, pletely ign her.
Of course, Mikoto wouldn't help her here—she wasn't about to pick a side when it came to this argument.
Kushina's gaze shifted to Shin, but he had already slipped away.
"Konan, have you seen where Shi?" Kushina asked, frustration rising.
"I saw him use space-time ninjutsu and leave, but I'm not sure where he went." Konan shrugged, her expression calm.
"Well, fine. Let's not go back just yet." Kushina muttered under her breath.
....
Meanwhile, Shin had already left the Land of Whirlpools, entering the Land of Fire. As he walked, a message came in.
"War between Konoha and Sunagakure has officially broken out."
"That didn't take long..." Shin murmured, intrigued. He felt a spark of curiosity and decided to check out the battlefield for himself.
The battle was already underway in the Land of Rain, a tragic location that often became the ter of wars due to its locatioween the great nations.
Shin shook his head. The poor Land of Rain always seemed to suffer during times of war. There was no esg it.
The try had a history of being caught in the crossfire of the great nations—its nd often being the battlefield in global flicts.
Shin figured it was no ce that the try had ended up as a casualty i another flict.
Hanzō didn't dare say anything about the Land of Rain being a battlefield again. He was old now and afraid of death.
He couldn't risk refusing Konoha and Suna, especially after Amegakure's heavy losses in the Sed Shinobi World War.
Amegakure's strength had been halved. As a small vilge, they didn't have the resources to recover quickly.
Hanzō wouldn't participate in this war. Even if Suna invited him, he wouldn't join.
He had learned his lesson from the st war.
