Caught red-handed by her master, little Katsuyu’s soft, sweet voice was filled with embarrassment.
“Lady Tsunade, this is the will of the Sage’s main body. I don’t know what’s going on either… I have other things to do, I’m slipping away!”
Before she could even finish her sentence, with a “whoosh,” little Katsuyu burrowed directly into the ground, running faster than a rabbit.
Watching her own Summoning Jutsu creature flee in such a panic, Tsunade had nowhere to vent her pent-up frustration and took it all out on Rinya.
She closed the distance in a few steps, grabbed Rinya by the collar, and yanked him hard toward her.
A warm breeze, mixed with the girl’s natural fragrance, blew directly onto Rinya’s face.
“Stop trying to fool me! Start talking! Why did the Senju and Uchiha clans die out? If you don’t explain clearly today, I’ll cripple you right here!”
The distance was too close.
Rinya could even feel the astonishing elasticity coming from her chest.
He suppressed his wandering thoughts and put on an incredibly serious expression.
“You want to hear the core secrets? Fine. But after you hear them, you must immediately use a sealing technique to lock away this part of your memory to prevent the information from leaking.” Rinya stated his conditions directly.
Seeing his solemn expression, Tsunade suppressed her explosive temper.
As the granddaughter of Uzumaki Mito, performing a memory sealing technique was a piece of cake for her.
“Fine. As long as the information you provide is valuable, I will seal my memory immediately.”
Seeing Tsunade compromise, Rinya cleared his throat and dropped a bombshell.
“In the future, aliens will descend. Ordinary Ninjutsu barely scratches them. The only things that can truly hurt them are Sage Arts and the power of the main Ōtsutsuki clan!”
“The Senju and Uchiha clans inherited the Sage Body and Sage Eyes of the Six Paths Sage, respectively. Put simply, combining the power of our two clans is the power of the Ōtsutsuki!”
“For hundreds of years, there has been someone hiding in the shadows, frantically sowing discord.”
“His goal is to make the Senju and Uchiha kill each other until they are completely extinct!”
“As long as our two clans are gone, the Ninja World will completely lose its trump card against the aliens and can only wait to die!”
The amount of information in these words was overwhelming; Tsunade gasped, unable to calm down for a long time.
Rinya stepped forward, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
“Therefore, to save the Ninja World, the Senju and Uchiha must be forcibly merged!”
“We must both take the positions of clan heads and merge our two clans into a brand new’Six Paths Clan’!”
“The best way to merge the two clans is through marriage.”
“In the future, to save the world, we must have an heir!”
Tsunade kept muttering to herself, her beautiful eyes growing brighter and brighter, and her whole person radiating a fanatical spirit.
The grand blueprint occupied her mind, causing her to temporarily ignore the shocking remark Rinya had added at the end.
Watching Tsunade like this, Rinya chuckled to himself.
The young Tsunade was indeed a passionate person.
Having not yet experienced the subsequent series of painful blows, she was not only full of motivation but also possessed an unyielding spirit in her bones.
Tsunade in this state was simply a large, upgraded version of Sakura, full of vitality.
“Wait!”
Tsunade suddenly snapped out of it; the passion in her eyes instantly faded, replaced by a layer of fierce murderous intent.
She stared daggers at the Uchiha brat in front of her.
“What did you just say? We’re going to have a child?! You little bastard, do you know what you’re saying?!”
That reaction time is way too slow!
Rinya thought, frantically complaining in his mind.
Being stared at by this humanoid female tyrannosaurus with eyes that wanted to kill, cold sweat broke out on his back.
If he couldn’t smooth over this lie today, he would definitely be in for a brutal beating.
“Don’t be so hasty, listen to me explain!” Rinya hurriedly waved his hands.
“I said before, only by combining the power of the Senju and Uchiha can we confront the alien descent.”
“In the future, our two clans have long since died out, leaving only a few stragglers.”
“To fight the Ōtsutsuki, we accidentally united in a desperate situation, forcibly stimulating the potential within our bodies!”
“Unfortunately, it was too late. We were isolated and helpless, and after struggling for a few months, we both died in battle.”
“After dying, I inexplicably returned to this age, and I lost a lot of memories, only remembering the major events that happened in the future!”
Rinya spouted nonsense with his eyes closed.
As long as the system wasn’t exposed, he could brag however he wanted.
Everything was for the sake of completing the child-bearing mission; if he couldn’t finish it, he’d lose his life, so who cared about integrity!
“It’s okay if you don’t believe me, we can verify it one thing at a time!” Rinya didn’t give Tsunade time to think.
“My memory tells me that your brother, Senju Nawaki, will die tragically before long! On the surface, it looks like he was killed by an exploding tag, but in reality, his heart was dug out! I suspect the mastermind behind the scenes did it!”
All the talk about uniting, about being husband and wife, was blown to the back of her mind.
“Nawaki will die? Impossible! Orochimaru is protecting him personally, how could he die! Where did Orochimaru go!” Tsunade went completely mad, her eyes turning red.
“Don’t glare at me.
In the future, the teenage me wasn’t even on the same battlefield.” “These secrets were all things you told me yourself in the future.” Rinya continued to make things up.
“Orochimaru was indeed there, but he didn’t expect an ordinary exploding tag trap to take Nawaki’s life. You spent decades investigating but never found the culprit who dug out his heart.”
“But don’t be afraid. Since we know about it in advance, we can definitely avoid this death trap! Let brother-in-law Nawaki live well, and in the future, he can help expand our Six Paths Clan!”
Tsunade had been listening, feeling cold all over, but when those last two sentences came out, she almost vomited blood from anger.
Brother-in-law?
Who is your brother-in-law!
This bastard brat can’t go three sentences without trying to take advantage!
Let the dignified Senju Princess marry a Uchiha brat?
Keep dreaming!
“Fine, I’ll believe you for now, but only after I verify the matter regarding Nawaki!” Tsunade gritted her teeth and glared at Rinya.
“And another thing, stop talking nonsense about us being husband and wife! Even if I stay single for the rest of my life, I will absolutely never marry an Uchiha brat who is weaker than me!”
“If I find out in the end that you’re playing me, you better prepare to lie in the intensive care unit of Konoha Hospital for the rest of your life!” “By the way, who exactly is the mastermind? Let’s just go and slaughter him once and for all!” Tsunade seemed to have thought of something and suddenly leaned forward.
“Big sister, you have to eat one bite at a time. This old schemer is hidden very deep; telling you now is useless.” Rinya hurriedly stepped back half a step, fearing that this female tyrannosaurus would suddenly blow up.
“We’ve been out for long enough; the captain and the others are probably going crazy with worry. Hurry up and apply the seal, let’s go!”
Seeing this, Tsunade didn’t argue.
With a light huff, she quickly formed hand seals and slammed her hand onto her forehead.
A complex black seal flashed and disappeared.
It was a powerful sealing technique specifically designed to prevent prying and protect core memories.
With that done, Tsunade formed a single hand seal to release the Reverse Summoning Jutsu.
Bang!
White smoke exploded, and the two instantly vanished from Shikkotsu Forest.
In the depths of the empty Shikkotsu Forest, an ethereal, mature woman’s voice drifted out: “Time travel, is it? What an interesting little guy…”
