This little guy is much bolder than yesterday, daring to look at me so directly?
Tsunade quietly warned Uchiha In with a glance, but Uchiha In immediately returned a 'what can you do to me' expression.
Curiosity!
Tsunade awkwardly crossed her arms and jumped down from the tree.
"Mikoto, I don't know if you've learned this from your squad leader, but your Chakra control is quite good, so you should succeed quickly.
After Tsunade jumped down, she walked over to Uchiha In's side.
"In, you seem to have gotten a lot bolder."
Uchiha In only felt an itch in his ear, turned his head, and his lips brushed against Tsunade's cheek, lightly touching her lips.
Tsunade quickly took a few steps back, her tone slightly cold.
"You did that on purpose?"
"What if I did it on purpose, and what if I didn't?"
Last night, Uchiha In carefully recalled everything that happened yesterday, and he suddenly realized that Tsunade seemed to have a different feeling for him.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have tried to seduce him.
And she wouldn't have made that gesture because of Kushina and Mikoto's joke.
So, this was also a test from Uchiha In.
If Tsunade really liked him, why not?
Seeing Uchiha In's bold gaze directed at her, Tsunade's heart pounded, feeling as if she had been seen through. Was this an illusion?
It was fortunate that Kushina and Mikoto's gazes weren't on them at this moment, otherwise they would definitely have noticed Tsunade's abnormality.
Uchiha In saw Tsunade's current state, confirmed his guess, and smiled.
"Okay, Tsunade-nee."
Uchiha Mikoto's words broke the atmosphere.
She took a deep breath, controlled her Chakra, and then placed one foot on the tree trunk.
When she felt her foot firmly attached to the tree trunk, she extended her other foot and also placed it on the tree trunk.
Uchiha Mikoto stood firmly horizontally on the tree trunk, without the slightest tremor.
Just as Tsunade said, Uchiha Mikoto's Chakra control ability was excellent. Although she had never practiced tree climbing before, she successfully walked to the top of the big tree and stood on a branch.
Although Uchiha Mikoto successfully graduated from the Ninja Academy, her instructor had indeed not taught Mikoto how to climb trees.
Therefore, Uchiha Mikoto being able to succeed on her first attempt at tree climbing was enough to prove Uchiha Mikoto's talent in Chakra control.
"Kushina, you come up too, it's pretty simple."
Uchiha Mikoto excitedly waved to Uzumaki Kushina and said.
"Okay, Mikoto nee-san, I'm coming up."
Seeing Uchiha Mikoto easily walk up the tree trunk, Uzumaki Kushina was also full of motivation, subconsciously thinking it should be very simple.
She gathered Chakra in her feet with great force, creating a gust of wind.
She stepped on the tree trunk with one foot, directly causing the tree trunk to indent, and then directly ran towards the top.
Because of the excessive Chakra input, the tree trunk creaked loudly.
Uzumaki Kushina ran halfway and realized that she couldn't stand steadily and fell directly from the tree trunk.
"Ah, help!"
Uzumaki Kushina instinctively shouted.
Uchiha In was already standing under the tree, and his movements were even faster than Tsunade, who had just thought of helping. He caught her steadily in a princess carry.
Uzumaki Kushina's face turned red when she saw Uchiha In catch her in a princess carry.
"This time was my mistake, again!"
Kushina said, unconvinced. She left Uchiha In's embrace, came to the tree trunk again, controlled her strength, and walked up again.
Chakra control is not that easy to practice. Her strength was too great, and she fell from the tree again.
Uchiha In embraced Uzumaki Kushina once more.
"Again!"
Uzumaki Kushina's face flushed, still unconvinced, and she stood in front of the tree trunk once more.
Half an hour passed, and Uchiha In found that this training was a benefit. Uzumaki Kushina kept falling from the tree, and Uchiha In kept catching her.
Uzumaki Kushina was initially unconvinced, but eventually, falling became a habit. Lying in Uchiha In's arms, she felt inexplicably shy and experienced a strong sense of security.
The force of her steps on the tree trunk went from strong to weak, and eventually, she was almost caught by Uchiha In as soon as she stepped on it.
Uzumaki Kushina found herself addicted to Uchiha In's embrace—that embrace was warm, safe, and comfortable.
After Uchiha In caught Uzumaki Kushina again, Uchiha Mikoto, who had been watching from above, became jealous. Even Tsunade, beside her, had a hint of jealousy.
"Are you two done playing? How long, how many times will you hug? Kushina, you're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
Chapter 68: I Solemnly Announce
Uzumaki Kushina's face turned even redder when she heard Uchiha Mikoto's words. She quickly jumped out of Uchiha In's embrace, her eyes darting around.
Although both of them were Uchiha In's girlfriends, what she was doing was indeed a bit inappropriate.
"I, I, I'm just not good at Chakra control, right?"
Uzumaki Kushina scratched her head and said.
"In, catch me."
Uchiha Mikoto jumped down from the tree and was steadily caught by Uchiha In.
She could have jumped to the ground herself, but she just wanted Uchiha In to catch her.
Uchiha In caught Uchiha Mikoto and smiled.
