However, the laughter wasn't the usual amused kind; it was full of disdain!!!
What could Tsunade say about Ronglin's narcissism? Only to despise him, endlessly despise him!! Deeply despise him.
"I'm sorry, I tried my best in this matter. The Hyuga clan gave some old family members many benefits, which caused them to step forward as well."
After a long while, Tsunade showed an apologetic expression. She wanted to help Ronglin, but couldn't. A few elders of the family stepped out, forcing Tsunade to compromise.
Ronglin also put away his mischief, looking at Tsunade and saying:
"I know, so don't blame yourself. You've helped me enough, my respected Queen. How can I repay you?"
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, laughing in exasperation: "Get out of here!!! Go find your queen!"
Making fun of her, did he really think she wouldn't get angry?
However, Tsunade actually thought "Queen" was a good title, hmm... "Much better than Princess."
Every woman has a dream of being a queen, and Tsunade was no exception, especially as a strong woman in her previous life.
Since childhood, Tsunade was called Konoha's little princess, but as she grew older, this title still remained. Wherever she went, people would call her—Princess Tsunade!
This gave Tsunade the illusion that she hadn't grown up yet, which was annoying. So, compared to "Princess," Tsunade now preferred the title "Queen."
Actually, if Tsunade simply stepped forward and declared herself a queen, not a princess, many people would call her queen. Unfortunately, Tsunade could never do such a thing.
"What arrangements does the village have for this great defeat?"
After the jokes, Tsunade shifted the topic from the previous incident to serious matters.
"It's nothing more than increasing reinforcements and such. You know, Konoha can't deploy everyone to the front lines. Surrounding countries need to be guarded against, especially the Land of Earth. Tell me, what actions has the Land of Earth taken?"
Compared to the dissatisfaction of ordinary villagers and the worries of the Third Hokage, Tsunade appeared quite calm. There's no war without losses; with victory, there's naturally defeat. Konoha suffered a heavy loss, which could only be attributed to Sakumo Hatake and Jiraiya's improper command.
If it were her, it wouldn't necessarily have been much better.
"Indeed, and the movement is quite significant. Supplies are being frequently mobilized. This trip counts as training for new recruits; intelligence gathering is just a bonus."
Ronglin put down his teacup, thinking that the Land of Earth wouldn't join the war for long. He wondered what benefits the Land of Wind had given the Land of Earth to persuade a great nation to join the war.
It wasn't that easy. Even if the Land of Earth and the Land of Fire were at odds and wanted a piece of the pie, there wouldn't be cooperation without sufficient profit.
"Don't worry so much. The Old Man Third has always been wary of the Land of Earth and has made many preparations. Even if the Land of Earth suddenly declares war, Konoha can face it."
Seeing Ronglin's worry, Tsunade tried to reassure him. However, what Tsunade didn't know was that Ronglin wasn't worried at all. If Tsunade knew what Ronglin was thinking at that moment, a massive chase would surely erupt.
Ronglin's thoughts at this time were:
Break out, break out, let the storm come more fiercely!!!
"You're right, I don't need to worry about these things. I'm still wondering what I should do next?
I've got some time off."
Pinching his chin, Ronglin muttered to himself, looking smug as if he enjoyed annoying people without consequences.
"......"
Tsunade clenched her fists, feeling an urge to tear his mouth off. Kage-level experts in the village are assigned corresponding positions, unless they are unpopular.
Once they have a position, it's not so easy to roam around. Due to his age, Ronglin hasn't been assigned a position, so he is quite free, except when there are urgent missions.
With the Anbu First Squad still on the front lines, Ronglin's free time would only increase.
As for someone like Tsunade, she rarely had the opportunity to travel, spending most of her time in her position. Although the Medical Department didn't have much for Tsunade to handle daily, most of her time was spent there.
Now, Ronglin was actually showing off in front of her. Wasn't he deliberately trying to annoy her?
"Hmm~ I've noticed you've been getting prettier lately. Have you been taking any great tonics?"
Suddenly, Ronglin leaned his head closer, startling Tsunade. Their faces almost touched.
"Scram!!!"
For the first time, Tsunade blushed while with Ronglin. If she had reacted a second slower, their faces would have really touched. What was this little brat trying to do?
"Well~ why are you angry?"
Ronglin looked at her innocently.
"You..."
Tsunade raised her hand, but stopped.
Yes, why was she angry? This kid just came a little closer. Maybe she was overthinking it. For a second, Tsunade thought he wanted to kiss her.
"Smooch!!"
"Uchiha Ronglin!!!"
Just as Tsunade was momentarily stunned, she suddenly felt her body unable to move, restricted by Ronglin's terrifying Time Force. Time around them had frozen. Unless Ronglin released it, Tsunade would remain a statue.
He planted a kiss on her cheek, making a long smacking sound, and leaving a trail of saliva. Tsunade's face flushed crimson, and her breathing immediately changed.
"I have something to do, so I'm leaving. Bye-bye."
Ronglin jumped straight out the window, only then releasing the Time Force, leaving Tsunade to watch him leave helplessly.
Roaring, Tsunade hesitated whether to chase him down and beat him up. Ronglin quickly reappeared:
"By the way, I forgot to tell you, your skin is very white and smooth, and it tastes great."
"U! CHI! HA! RONG! LIN!"
Tsunade roared the five words, almost syllable by syllable, grinding her teeth. But there was no sign of Ronglin's voice anymore. That guy had already made a clean getaway, giving Tsunade no chance to vent her anger.
The entire Medical Department and hospital were enveloped in Tsunade's roar.
Everyone was used to it. In their impression, that Uchiha Ronglin brat always managed to infuriate Lady Tsunade, causing her to lose her temper. Therefore, the damaged items were not just one or two.
