Chapter 357: Graduation

"I will be strong, much stronger to protect you and everyone. This crown will be with me for eternity, but as a man, I will bring happiness to all of you. I promise..."

"Danna-sama..."

With both hands on her lips, tears streamed down Tsubaki's eyes. After all, she had heard from Est that Yuki never breaks his promises, and so far, he has fulfilled all of them. She, for example, is alive because of that promise.

If Yuki said he would make them happy, then he would.

She is already happy in these moments...

"Seriously, I can't win an argument with you, Yuki."

"Of course not, Big Sister."

Shaking her head, Tsunade smiled bitterly. This boy was good at convincing people with his reasoning, and so far, Tsunade had never won an argument with him.

And honestly, from the moment Yuki said he didn't want to lose her, Tsunade lost all intention of arguing.

"I can't stop you, but I want you to tell me everything from now on."

"Of course..."

"I also want you to take me when you go to other worlds."

Tsunade can't stop him, but she can accompany him. That's why she thought it was a good idea to explore other worlds with him.

Yuki, of course, didn't refuse. This was his original intention, after all. With Tsunade joining his team, their survival had increased.

"Come here..."

With all the details to discuss, the godmother and godson duo shared a tender hug.

Yuki was getting cuter and Tsunade wanted to recharge her batteries, so she squeezed him tightly, causing Yuki's face to be buried in her ample bosom.

"Tsunade-sama! Yuki!"

"Oink, oink."

Shizune, who had been listening, was on the verge of tears and couldn't help but join the duo, sharing a hug. Ton-ton did the same, jumping from Shizune's arms and landing on Yuki's head.

"Danna-sama..."

Tsubaki couldn't help but join in too...

The family was growing...

"But, Yuki... This doesn't change the fact that you brought a woman without my permission."

Unfortunately for Yuki, this was far from over. After all, with Tsubaki hugging her, a sinister smile formed on Tsunade's face. She also remembered something important...

"Guh!"

And Yuki was destined to suffer, especially now, as he was lacking air being buried in Tsunade's ample bosom.

The next day, Yuki woke up early. Today was Sasuke's graduation day from the academy, and as his only relative in Konoha, it was his duty to accompany him.

But before leaving, he couldn't help but sigh and look at Tsunade, who was still sleeping.

Last night was crazy. After agreeing to help him, Tsunade chased him about the Tsubaki matter. Yuki didn't lie, and this prompted Tsunade to drink large amounts of sake to numb her pain.

Yuki shook his head at this, but he was also grateful. After all, Tsunade had more or less accepted Tsubaki, sympathizing with her story. She also sternly warned the precocious couple about indulging in forbidden fruit prematurely.

Both are too young for the adult world, not to mention that Tsunade felt a bit jealous of these two youngsters. She is Yuki's 'promised one,' so it was obvious she would feel a bit annoyed. Of course, both Tsubaki and Yuki agreed to take a break from these nocturnal activities. Yuki feared that one day Tsunade would catch them in the act, and he didn't want to know how Tsunade would react.

"No matter, I'll live with you from now on."

Unfortunately, Tsunade didn't believe him. For her, this precocious couple wouldn't stay quiet. With hormones and pheromones in action, they wouldn't keep their word, especially after eating the forbidden fruit. So, to prevent this, Tsunade decided to live with them. With her watching over this young couple, they would think twice before acting. Of course, this also included Shizune, who became depressed when she got involved in all this.

She also offered to take Tsubaki for a while to train her. This young miko still had much to learn, and in this world with many nuclear bombs, it was the best option.

Tsunade was very curious about the powers of people from other worlds and wanted to put Tsubaki to the test. Tsubaki didn't refuse, and Yuki didn't either. This could be the beginning of their pleasant friendship.

So, before leaving, he put on a fox mask. It would be a problem if someone else saw his change of appearance. He prepared tea for the hangover and Shizune's favorite breakfast. After all, Shizune was the only victim in this place.

"Awesome, I'll finally become a ninja."

"My future starts today!"

In the ninja academy, various young and adult individuals gathered. This was the graduation day of the academy, with the Third Hokage giving his speech; the different teachers began distributing the ninja headbands, indicating their promotion.

"A new generation..."

Seeing these energetic young people, Hiruzen sighed a puff of smoke from his pipe. After all, these children are the future of Konoha.

"Yes, a generation full of energy."

Iruka, who was beside him, agreed with his words. As the teacher of this group, he felt proud and worried. There was one student who gave him headaches.

Everyone was happy for this event, well, almost everyone.

Because on a small swing under a tree, a blonde boy gritted his teeth and lowered his gaze as he saw his classmates rejoicing with their ninja headbands.

"You're a fool, Naruto. Seriously, not being able to do a simple clone jutsu."

Sasuke, who was beside him, looked at Naruto with disdain and huffed coldly.

As childhood friends, Sasuke didn't know what to think about this friend of his failing the exam.

"Shut up, Sasuke!"

Naruto certainly wasn't going to let himself be belittled. However, seeing the ninja headband on Sasuke's forehead, he could only growl, as unlike him, Sasuke was the model student.

This saddened him, watching his friend advance on his ninja path.

"I found them."

Suddenly a voice was heard, and in front of them, an image flashed.

"Aniki."

"Yuki-nii."

"Sorry for being late."

Scratching his head, Yuki smiled under his mask.

Truth be told, he had come much earlier. However, he didn't want to listen to the Third Hokage's nonsense, so he took a little detour.

"Yuki-nii, why the mask? It looks cool!"

"Is that so? I'll get you one later, Naruto."

Agitating his hand, Yuki didn't want to continue explaining. It was a hassle to clarify his change of appearance.

And even though Sasuke knew the reason, he didn't say anything. It was better if fewer people knew.

"Hm? Naruto, and your headband?"

"...."

Everyone had a ninja headband, except Naruto. This confused Yuki, but when he looked at Naruto, he lowered his head.

"He doesn't have a ninja headband because he didn't pass the exam."

Fortunately, Sasuke explained the reason for Naruto lowering his head even further. He was afraid of disappointing Yuki and honestly didn't want to train with Yuki again.

Hearing the explanation, Yuki sighed. This would happen sooner or later.

The chakra inside Naruto is massive and very fierce.

Controlling such massive chakra is very exhausting, not to mention the powerful Bijuu within him.

Because of this, Yuki couldn't help but envy Naruto a bit. Many shinobi train hard to increase even a little bit of chakra. Even he has to train or consume people to increase his chakra and time. Meanwhile, Naruto has an immense amount of chakra inside him from birth. He didn't have to exert himself to increase his chakra.

If he could control such chakra, he would instantly become the most powerful shinobi in the village. It's a pity that he can't do it, and with the wild personality of the Bijuu inside him, Naruto will have to work hard.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu..."

Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. Normal jutsu would be difficult for Naruto to master, especially given his poor control over chakra.

However, there shouldn't be any problems. If the jutsu uses large amounts of chakra, at the same time, a person appeared in his vision.

It was a ninja with silver hair, wearing the standard ninja attire.

And because of this, he remembered a small report he received from his clone a few days ago in his office, about a certain little mouse. At first, he thought about eliminating this mouse, but now he had found another purpose for its existence, while also messing with the Third Hokage—two birds with one stone...
