The battle that could have originally lasted three days was resolved in less than an hour with Rinjin's brutal assistance.
And the Third Raikage, who was originally destined to die from exhaustion, now sat vigorously beside Rinjin.
"A, you owe me a big favor!"
Hearing this, the straightforward Third Raikage straightforwardly nodded his straightforward head.
He was right. If this freak Rinjin hadn't come, he would definitely have been beaten to death by these dishonorable young Iwagakure punks. After all, he was already a fifty-year-old geezer.
Seeing the Third Raikage nod, Rinjin moved closer to him, nudging him with his elbow.
"Bro, lend me the Amber Purifying Pot to play with for a couple days~ Yabai has worked for Kumogakure for free all these years—it's time she came home with me to do laundry, fold clothes, and cook~"
Hearing this, the Raikage's face instantly darkened.
"You have the nerve to bring that up! Just mentioning it makes me angry! You secretly married Konoha's Princess Tsunade and lived it up, but you never came back to the village to see my niece!"
"Hehe~" Rinjin laughed. "Scolding is scolding, but don't take advantage by calling her your niece. Let's keep things separate. I'm the Daimyo of the Land of Rain—theoretically, I outrank you as Raikage."
Hearing this, the Third Raikage also laughed. "Once my son returns, I'll step down from the Raikage position. You outrank the Raikage? What's that got to do with me? Yabai is my niece, her father is my brother. During holidays, you'll still have to send me gifts!"
Hearing this, Rinjin was completely speechless. In terms of shamelessness, the Third Raikage was unrivaled in the shinobi world. This little brother admits defeat~
On the other side, Yabai descended from the steep cliff, her eyes like water secretly glancing at Rinjin. She had watched the entire battle. Honestly, there was nothing shocking about it. Everyone in Kumogakure knew Rinjin's combat power, with the Eight-Tails Gyūki having the deepest memories.
But! Rinjin's enlargement technique was quite novel. As everyone knew, Kumogakure girls liked things hard, and they were also quite fond of big things. And Rinjin'sMulti-Size Technique truly left a deep impression on Yabai.
Caliber is justice, range is truth...
Heh... Multi-Size Technique, eternal god~
With Yabai's arrival, the edge of the battlefield below the cliff transformed from two bros into a family gathering.
Looking at Yabai, who was curvaceous and practically ripe enough to peel, Rinjin sighed helplessly and waved at her:
"The fighting's done, the fuss is over—time to go home this time."
"Go home?" Yabai's eyes sparkled with laughter as she pretended not to understand, tilting her head. "Which home? My home is in Kumogakure."
"Ah yes yes yes, your home is in Kumogakure. I wonder who was that poor soul who cried and shouted back then: 'You must come marry me~'"
Hearing this, Yabai's water-like skin instantly flushed red.
On the other side, Raikage-san glanced at his niece with a strange expression, thinking: You two really don't consider me human—this old man is still here!
However, his niece was already in her thirties. It was time to marry her off. Although Rinjin was already married, well, daimyo... those who understand, understand~
"Cough cough..." Clearing his throat, Raikage-san was about to speak when his niece interrupted him.
"Rinjin, I've heard that your wife, Konoha's Princess Tsunade, can punch through an entire street with one blow. If I go back to Amegakure with you and your wife finds out, won't she be angry If your wife knew we've known each other for so long, wouldn't she be jealous If your wife knew you chat with me regularly, wouldn't she beat me up~ Your wife is so scary..."
Looking at the scheming Yabai, Rinjin scratched his head helplessly: "Beat you up then. As long as it doesn't get too serious, I can accept it."
Hearing this, Yabai immediately pressed: "What if it gets serious~"
"What can I do?" Rinjin shrugged. "I can only choose to forgive you both~"
Saying this, Rinjin couldn't help but feel emotional.
Why can other protagonists just show a reluctant yet gentle look, and girls immediately go crazy with speculation and self-conquest? Then several women instantly become best friends, as close as real sisters.
But for me—the one outside is scheming with a belly full of tricks. The one at home is sharpening her fists, ready for an octagon PK at the slightest misstep.
This... Where's my intelligence-reducing aura???
Thinking of this, Rinjin suddenly recalled his first half of life.
Three best friends: Kagami was weak and playful, but already the most normal one. Sakumo had been improper since childhood—not only did he love reading dirty books, but recently he'd become obsessed with women's BL fiction. Jiraiya ran around invisibly all day, either peeping or on his way to peep.
His sister was extremely insecure, learning to be a gang boss before she could even walk steadily. No homework, father-son harmony; homework time, chaos and mayhem.
His wife Tsunade was also a gambling addict who'd latched onto him while being chased by debt collectors, now staying home all day researching TV shopping.
In Kumogakure there was Yabai, full of schemes and plots—when he was undercover in Kumogakure, she nearly caused him to blow his cover.
And he had a teacher who looked completely proper but was actually more improper than anyone. Can you believe it? He actually dragged a seven or eight-year-old child to "understand the mind and see one's nature," then got himself high!
This... Looking back at the first half of my life, damn, what a failure~
Sighing deeply, Rinjin reached out and grabbed Yabai's pant leg.
"Come on, stop throwing tantrums and come back with me."
"I won't go." Yabai turned her head away, stubbornly pouting.
Seeing this, Rinjin immediately sighed deeply, stood up with a wooden expression, and swiftly drew a kunai.
Squelch—
In an instant when neither the Third Raikage nor Yabai could react, the kunai pierced Yabai's heart. Immediately, crimson blood gushed out.
Seeing this, the Third Raikage was dumbfounded. This... this damn... am I under a genjutsu???
On the other side, Yabai looked at Rinjin's hands covered in her blood with surprise, her expression rapidly changing.
This guy's love turning to hate was way too fast~
But thinking again, her death would probably be a good thing for Rinjin—at least he wouldn't have to worry about the issue between her and his wife.
She'd schemed her whole life, only to die at the hands of the man she loved. How ironic!
Thinking of this, Yabai suddenly felt at peace, her blood-stained mouth curving into a smile.
"Live well, treat your wife well, bury me... beside your tombstone... Don't... don't forget me, my name is... Yabai... it means... soft... too bad you never tried..."
Looking at Yabai muttering endlessly, Rinjin smiled coldly.
Heh~ Keep talking. I'm really looking forward to seeing you dig a hole from embarrassment when you open your eyes.
