7 Chapter 07
Tsunade could not contain herself any longer and hugged the two extremely familiar figures to her.
"Tsunade?" Dan was as confused as little Nawaki.
...
...
...
"I never thought something like that existed, that guy is a god!" Dan exclaimed in surprise as he devoured the food on the table.
"But sister, I appreciate that you revived me and all, but why in a 6-year-old body!" Nawaki lamented.
"Because I wanted to remember when I took care of you." Tsunade, now comforted, affectionately squeezed her younger brother's cheeks.
Shizune stood motionless by her side, processing everything she had just heard.
Something completely unreal that would turn this world upside down.
A merchant?
Who sells even resurrection amulets?
Ninja techniques and blood limits too?
Does something like that really exist?
"Your knowledge is truly worth enough to revive us, Tsunade, you have become a great ninja." Dan praised lovingly.
Tsunade trembled at this, nodding slightly.
Naturally, she was not going to mention the fact that she became a prostitute just so she could revive them.
Instead, she lied to them.
"Tsunade-sama is truly amazing, uncle!" Shizune, upon hearing praise for her teacher, quickly confirmed.
"You have also grown quite a lot, Shizune, you are already a woman!" Dan smiled at his niece.
"Oh my, they serve such good food here." Nawaki devoured plate after plate of food.
It must be said that his appetite is no joke.
"So it has been more than 20 years, how is the clan, sister?"
"Nawaki, the entire Senju clan has perished. After your death, the few remaining members in the village died on missions, but thanks to them, we were able to win the Second Great Ninja War." Tsunade said sadly.
Nawaki suddenly stopped eating.
"I see." He murmured, also filled with sadness.
"Not all is lost, currently I don't have the strength, but if you become someone strong, you can catch that man's attention, and while you accumulate enough points, you can revive the entire Senju clan." Tsunade did not lose hope.
Upon hearing this, Nawaki's eyes regained their sparkle.
"You're right." Nawaki exclaimed.
"Grandfather Hashirama died in peace, reviving him would be disrespectful, but there are people in the clan who deserve to live the life that was taken from them so young." Tsunade said.
"You're right, sister."
"By the way, I didn't want to ask you this, but how did you die?" Tsunade suddenly asked.
Nawaki's face darkened at this.
"An ambush." Nawaki said in a heavy tone.
"What?" Tsunade stood up in surprise and looked her brother in the eyes.
"Yes, we were ambushed, I died in an explosion, the mission was given by Danzo, before dying I suspected that he had something to do with it, as I vaguely heard his name from one of the ninjas who ambushed us."
"But if Orochimaru said...."
Tsunade clenched her fists in anger.
"That old man...."
"Don't worry, someday karma will catch up to him." Nawaki didn't worry about those serious matters, instead, he decided to enjoy his second life. After all, he was 13 years old, just in a 6-year-old body.
"Shizune, why don't you go train a bit with Nawaki?" Dan suddenly said.
Shizune remained silent for a few seconds before understanding.
"Oh, of course, Nawaki-kun, why don't we try out your Wood Release?"
Upon hearing this, Nawaki became excited.
"Alright, sister Shizune, I want to see if I can become like Grandfather."
Nawaki ran off, with Shizune following behind with a smile.
Dan and Tsunade were left alone.
"Tsunade, you've been through so much!" Dan exclaimed affectionately, placing his hand on top of Tsunade's.
But Tsunade quickly pulled her hand away, speaking in a complicated manner.
Dan was surprised by this.
"Dan... I'll be honest with you about us."
Dan furrowed his brow at this.
"I've grown accustomed to being alone. I'm not the same young woman you once knew. I'm much older than you. I decided to revive you because you deserve to live a life. As for me, I will focus on taking care of Nawaki until he no longer needs me, and then I will continue traveling the world as I have been."
Tsunade was clear about her feelings.
Meanwhile, Dan remained motionless, unable to believe what he was hearing.
"I thought we could try to continue what we had..." Dan lowered his head sadly.
"This world isn't as kind as we thought it was. There is too much darkness enveloping it, and I can't allow Nawaki to die because of my naivety," Tsunade said, taking another small sip of sake.
"You've truly changed a lot," Dan murmured as he watched Tsunade's fondness for drinking, but he restrained himself in front of Nawaki.
"But I won't give up." Dan struck his characteristic pose.
He stood up and walked towards his room in the motel.
He was truly exhausted and needed to process everything Tsunade had told him.
...
"Mokuton: Mokusatsu Shibari no Jutsu" ( (Choking Bush Jutsu)
Nawaki performed a hand seal as his arm transformed into several wooden pillars that flew towards Shizune with a terrifying pressure.
However, Shizune easily dodged them.
"You have the chakra, but you lack control. Otherwise, you could pursue me using that technique."
"As for your Lava Style, you need much more control over the Fire and Earth elements to give the lava a resistant form."
Shizune appeared in a blink behind Nawaki, her hand enveloped in blue chakra.
"Ah, I lost again," Nawaki dramatically flopped onto the ground.
"However, you still have the reflexes that a Genin should have, Nawaki-kun," Shizune encouraged him.
"Nonsense, you didn't even break a sweat. You were playing with me the whole time," Nawaki exposed Shizune.
She could only smile bitterly, as it was the truth.
After all, she was a full-fledged Jonin.
And also the disciple of a Sannin.
"You have a lot to improve. Tomorrow, we will depart for Konoha early in the morning. I will enroll you in the academy, and you will train with me every day until you can defeat me. I won't let you rest. I will break every bone in your body, one by one."
A loud voice echoed in the distance as Tsunade walked towards them.
"Ehhhh! I don't want to!" Nawaki complained.
"You want me to start right now," Tsunade cracked her fists.
Nawaki's face turned pale at this.
He quickly shook his head.
He realized that over the years, his sister had become fiercer than ever.
"Alright, let's go to sleep. Tomorrow will be a long day."
Nawaki and Shizune nodded and followed Tsunade back to the motel.
