Tsunade's eyes widened in shock, her face draining of color.
"Creak..."
Just then, the door to her room opened, and Uzumaki Nami walked in with a cup of warm water.
Seeing Tsunade awake, she brightened and hurried over to offer the cup.
"Lady Tsunade, you're finally up! You were too heavy for me to move, so I couldn't get you dressed. Here, drink some warm water-you must have a terrible headache after all that alcohol."
Tsunade took the cup and sipped, her forehead twitching with rising anger.
"Crack!"
The cup shattered in her grip, causing Nami to yelp in fright, her face paling.
"My head does hurt, but not because of the alcohol-it's because someone hit me!"
Someone actually hit me!
And they had the nerve to go for the back of my head? How underhanded can you get?
"It was that brat, Xin, who brought me up here, wasn't it?"
Tsunade turned to glare at Nami, who instinctively crossed her arms over her chest and nodded frantically. "Yes... Master Xin said you were drunk and asked me to help you get dressed."
Great...
This is just perfect.
Tsunade was mortified, rubbing her forehead as she realized how much face she'd lost.
"That little brat probably got an eyeful!"
She couldn't let this slide. Dammit, this was beyond embarrassing-it was a complete disaster!
Not only was it a disaster, but she also got hit. How is that fair?
She had to make this right.
Tsunade leapt out of bed, not even bothering with shoes, and stormed over to the next room.
She kicked the door open and marched in, shouting, "Uzagi Xin, what did you do to me last night!"
What is this, a morning wake-up call?
Xin was peacefully asleep, cuddling his warm, soft "Ophis" pillow, when Tsunade's voice shocked him awake.
Rubbing his eyes, he set Ophis down beside him, looked at the door that had been reduced to splinters, and then at the fuming Tsunade standing in the doorway. He rubbed his eyes again and yawned before complaining, "What could I have done to you?"
"I should be asking what you were trying to do! You didn't say a word, just walked in and started stripping, then jumped in the hot spring. Do you really think that's appropriate in front of a kid like me?"
"Look at you, passed out like a dead pig. I was actually worried you'd embarrass yourself."
"I knocked you out and brought you back to your room out of the goodness of my heart, and you repay me by kicking down my door and accusing me of who knows what?"
"Doesn't your conscience hurt? Aren't you worried about setting a bad example for the kid?"
Xin's string of complaints left Tsunade speechless.
She had come to pick a fight, but somehow, it seemed like she was the one being scolded.
It hit her that maybe she had gone a bit overboard, even though she was a woman.
Theoretically, she should have felt more wronged, but Xin was just a kid.
The memory of stripping down right in front of a child and hopping into the hot spring made Tsunade cringe with embarrassment. She almost wanted to dig herself a hole and disappear into it.
She might as well have lost all her dignity.
