Chapter 465 - Chapter 465: Lingering Threat

Under the moonlight, the battlefield ravaged by Susano'o and Daibutsu was a horrific sight.

Each crater bore witness to the ferocity of the battle that had unfolded.

The bloodstains on the ground had long since dried when a black, amorphous mass stealthily emerged from beneath the earth.

It first glanced around cautiously before gathering the scattered bits of flesh near the stains.

"Kawaki Hatake, you'll pay!"

With a voice filled with hatred, the black mass vented its fury before sinking back into the earth, leaving no trace behind.

Yet none were aware of what had just occurred. Kawaki was currently soaking in the hot spring pool with his eyes closed.

The fatigue of many days finally eased at this moment, and Tsunade's alluring image involuntarily surfaced in his mind.

Beneath the water, a stirring stirred below, forcing Kawaki to suppress the rising heat within.

Although [Five Maidens' Delight] had gone unused for far too long, with Tsunade absent, Kawaki was left to fall back on old habits.

Since there was no rush on the return journey, Kawaki took his time walking leisurely, stopping occasionally, and only quietly returned to Konoha several days later.

One morning, without making a sound or disturbing anyone, Kawaki appeared inside his bedroom.

Dawn had barely begun to brighten the sky, yet Tsunade lay fast asleep on the bed.

Her full, fair thighs exposed in the open air, she hugged a pillow tightly while shifting her arms slightly in her sleep.

Those soft mounds pressed tightly together, forming endless curves.

She radiated the allure of a mature woman so effortlessly it was breathtaking.

"You've kept yourself in great shape."

Creeping closer, Kawaki eased himself onto the edge of the bed, his hands instinctively reaching out to touch that smooth whiteness.

After being away for so long, he was seriously pent up.

His initially affectionate gaze slowly darkened with desire.

"Don't mess with me…"

Still half-asleep and not fully awake, Tsunade stirred as she felt the warmth of his hand, then impatiently brushed it aside.

"Have they gotten bigger?"

A sly grin spread across Kawaki's face as his hands shifted elsewhere, giving them a playful pinch.

Still as perfect as ever!

"Bastard!!!"

Tsunade suddenly jolted wide awake and kicked out hard with one leg.

Didn't Kawaki leave on a mission?

Who the hell has Triple Sixes guts to try touching her like this?!

"Ow!"

Taken off guard by her violent reaction, Kawaki had no time to dodge at all.

To avoid causing too much commotion in the house, he stood his ground rather than retreating.

After the kick landed, Kawaki doubled over instantly, his body contorting like a boiled shrimp.

He grimaced in agony, every trace of lust vanishing in an instant.

"You're back?!"

"Oh my goodness! Are you okay?!"

Clapping a hand over her mouth in shock, Tsunade quickly realized what had happened and hurriedly helped Kawaki onto the bed.

In truth, she hadn't realized how instinctive her reaction would be during sleep.

If someone stranger could approach her bedside without waking her, then calling herself Hokage would be nothing short of a joke.

"Jeez..."

"Trying to kill me or what?"

Lying on her lap, receiving her gentle care, Kawaki winced from the pain still shooting through his stomach.

Only someone like him could survive that hit—anyone else might've died.

"That's for not greeting me properly."

"And for groping all over the place."

Tsunade knew these injuries wouldn't really affect Kawaki, and scolded him playfully.

A green glow lit up her hands as she gently reached inside Kawaki's clothes.

"This was just meant to be a surprise for you."

Kawaki felt warmth spreading across his abdomen as the pain gradually weakened until it vanished completely.

"Done yet?"

Tsunade bent down slightly more, letting her hand wander lower on Kawaki's abdomen.

Her hand drifted lower without conscious intent.

"Hungry~"

Kawaki's voice wasn't loud, but his eyes were already hidden behind steamed buns.

The romantic tension, though briefly dimmed, surged back into his thoughts.

With Tsunade leaning forward like this, Kawaki only needed to lift his head slightly for his lips to catch the lingering scent.

Japanese-style small steamed buns still belonged to Tsunade.

"Smells good?"

As an old married couple, Tsunade pressed her body closer against him.

Feeling Kawaki's breathing on her skin, she could sense the temperature rising within the room.

"Ss~gently."

Feeling her weight pressing down, Kawaki playfully pushed back.

As the room temperature continued rising, their clothes gradually disappeared as well.

Now fully exposed to each other, their lips and tongues entwined together, filling the room with a warm, sensual energy.

Kawaki took control, while Tsunade's body melted into his touch, instinctively responding to his passion.

"Mm~ You can't wait to be naughty the moment you get back."

"Pervert!"

Tsunade's flirtatious gaze softened into the blush on her cheeks, making Kawaki unable to look away.

"The arrow's already at the bowstring."

"Forgive me."

Right after finishing his sentence, Kawaki decisively flipped Tsunade over.

After a brief separation, they rejoiced like newlyweds basking in long-awaited rain.

The situation within the room was indescribable. When their intimate moment ended, dawn broke outside, casting light across the sky.

Hearing faint noises from outside, it seemed Sakumo and Natsuki were already up.

"How did everything go this time?"

Snuggling against Kawaki's chest, Tsunade asked. The rosy hue on her face hadn't faded yet.

Her forehead was lightly sweating, and her every word carried a certain charm.

"Pretty smooth."

"We'll find Orochimaru later. I've got something good to show both of you."

Kawaki lightly patted Tsunade's butt. Now that news about Madara Uchiha no longer needed concealing,

he could now explain everything logically, so he no longer had to worry about revealing he was a transmigrator.

"Still keeping secrets from me."

Tsunade pretended to pout, tapping her finger lightly on Kawaki's momentarily resting 'little brother'.

Oh,,!

"I'll deal with you tonight. I'm going to wash up first."

Kawaki planted a light kiss on those red lips before walking naked into the bathroom.

When the sound of water started flowing, Tsunade stretched lazily, presenting an infinite view.

She then lazily got up, found Kawaki's clothes, and neatly laid them out before opening the bathroom door and stepping inside.

This bath took a bit longer than usual. By the time they dressed and came to the dining room for dinner, Sakumo and Natsuki had already finished eating.

"How's the situation in the Land of Earth?"

Sakumo wiped his mouth, clearly already knowing Kawaki had returned.

"As expected. Both Iwagakure and Cloud ninjas are occupied."

"Kakashi and the others are doing just fine. They've adjusted surprisingly quickly."

Kawaki knew Sakumo was too shy to ask directly about his son's situation. He understood his Big bro all too well.

"That's good. I was worried they wouldn't adapt well."

Natsuki chimed in. She missed Kakashi even more than Sakumo does.

"A mother worries even when her child travels a thousand miles. That was just how she was."

"Did you go see Ginji and them?"

Tsunade asked about her son at this point. Though Kawaki hadn't said what errand he ran, he had mentioned where he went.

"Of course. He did really well."

"That kid's got a bit of my old flair."

The moment Kawaki spoke, he ended up complimenting himself as well.

"Smug~ My boy's better than yours."

Tsunade couldn't stand his smug look and clearly showed her disapproval.

"You two keep eating. I've got to get to work."

Sakumo left satisfied after getting the news he wanted to hear.

"Lately, it's been too quiet at home."

"Have you two thought about having another baby?"

Natsuki's gaze wandered between Kawaki and Tsunade. No one could tell whether she was teasing or serious.

"You and Big bro are still at a good age for childbirth."

Tsunade blushed slightly but still made a rather risqué remark.

Kawaki silently sighed, realizing once again just how daring married women could be in their conversations.
