Tsunade Before

After a few weeks have passed by and with Jin managing to fully cement his friendship/fool Jiraya, he can finally move on to his next target: Tsunade. The reason for him leaving Orochimaru for last is quite simple. Since Orochimaru is kind of introverted and keeps quiet the reason being that he keeps his emotional guard up constantly, it would be very hard and time-consuming if Jin decided to befriend him first. Instead, if Jin first befriends Jiraya and Tsunade who are both in their own right different from the rest of the class just like Orochimaru, it would be much easier for Jin to befriend him since it would first lower Orochimarus emotional guard. As well as make it easier for him to fit in with a group of 4 where everyone has something in common instead of a group of 2 where it would mostly be Jin doing the talking. And it would kinda ruin or lower his chances of befriending the other 2 as Orochuimaru would kinda be dead weight or even detrimental in terms of helping in making friends.

(The next lesson will be perfect in terms of contacting Tsunade as I've had very few chances of striking a friendship with the class idol) ponders Jin to himself.

Afterwards nearing the end of the class the teacher says: "Alright, now that we are finished with the chakra control lesson we can move on to the next lesson, Taijutsu technique training. You will as always be split into teams of 2, and as usual, you will be picking your opponents, as that is a crucial skill to have on a battlefield with your teammates."

As soon as they reach the training field outside everyone finds their partner quite quickly with the only exemption being Orochimaru and Tsunade. Now, why would Tsunade be alone you might ask if she is so popular, Orochimaru we can understand since he is creepy but why Tsunade? Well, it's rather simple, she is too strong or rather she doesn't know how to hold back which is a bad habit that she kept far into the canon series from what Jin can remember leading to people never wanting to fight against her.

(And here comes my perfect chance) thinks Jin while saying to Jiraya: "Jiraya lets split up this time and find new opponents, your a little too weak for me, unfortunately" and starts walking towards Tsunade.

Jiraya gets a bit irritated hearing this and raises his voice a bit saying: "WHO are you calling WEAK, I'm one of the strongest students in our class. Your just a monster that is too strong, not to mention your ass is made of steel"

Jin almost stumbles hearing this on his way to Tsunade, while at the same time hearing a cute snicker coming from said person. As he reaches her he starts saying: "Hello, my name is Goto, Jin Goto and I noticed that you were alone, so I wanted to try fighting you. Besides, I heard that your really strong so I wanted to test whether or not that is true."

Tsunade lifts her eyebrows hearing this knowing that everyone she has fought so far were really weak in her opinion, and by the looks of it won't be any different this time, just another cocky and arrogant young boy who doesn't know his place in the world. She says "I will accept since I needed a warm-up anyway but don't blame me when you run home crying, in fact, I hope you are at least strong enough to stay conscious."

"You know you talk a lot of smack for someone so ignorant and incapable of controlling her own strength, but don't worry, this daddy will help discipline you, remember this will hurt me way more than it will hurt you" replies Jin fake sobbing at the end.

Tsunade almost blows her top with her veins visibly showing on her face and starts to immediately attack him, skipping the handshaking ceremony and wanting nothing more than to beat Jin black and blue. She has never before been treated like this, everywhere she goes she has no end of admirers and eventually she grew tired of them. But this is the first time someone not only disregarded her but also insulted her in such a mean way. So she instantly loses control and tries to kick him, but as soon as she starts kicking him she loses her footing unexplainably and falls on her butt. Jin seeing this smirks at her and taunts her: "Looks like our little princess fell on her ass, do you need help getting up? Or would you rather stay there, I mean the ground does look quite interesting and soft this time of year and somehow it feels like just the perfect place for you"

Tsunade looking like an angry tomato jumps up and starts throwing a fist right at his face to make him shut up, but somehow yet again she misses by a hairsbreadth while Jin just stands there not having moved from the same spot. Not giving up she attacks with everything she got yet somehow misses every single time, to outsiders it almost looks like she misses Jin on purpose while only she knows the truth. Somehow her attacks are guided off of the way for Jin making it look like she is missing. Getting even angrier Tsuande eventually bellows:

"STOP WITH YOUR PATHETIC LITTLE TRICKS, FIGHT ME FAIR AND SQUARE YOU BASTARD!!!"

Jin hearing this answers "You think your enemy on the battlefield will listen to your stupid little tantrum, little princess? The answer is obviously no, in fact, I could have killed you 1000 times over by now. But I will be fair and let you hit me since I'm magnanimous and let you know the vast difference between us"

Jin cancels using his thin chakra threads that he was using to control Tsunade with and instantly she punches Jin with everything she's got and more. A loud BANG was heard, almost sounding like someone was punching metal. And the result was Jin still standing in his spot not having moved even once throughout the fight, meanwhile, Tsunade retracts her fist and starts to slowly sob and cry while saying "Hic,h-hic, you meanie, it hurtttts sooo muchhh!!!"

Jin seeing this almost popped his eyes out not believing what just happened.

What do you think about Tsunade's personality? Remember that she is currently still a child so her personality hasn't had time to develop to how we know her in canon. Have some idea about my story? Comment it and let me know.
