Chapter 343: Shishou and Tenten

After thinking it over, Shishou decided to change the programming of the Transcription Seal again.

He adjusted the trigger condition from fatal injury to severe injury and then paired it with the Healing Bugs' pseudo-death ability and the shadow clone sealing scroll. This should ensure Ino and the others' safety.

"Alright, that's enough for today."

Once he confirmed everything was in order, Shishou prepared to leave and apply the Transcription Seal on Ino and the others.

Seeing this, Rin Nohara quickly spoke up:

"Can you let me see... Kushina-sensei?"

Through her time spent with Hyuga Natsu, Rin had learned about Kushina's resurrection and her current life with Shishou.

Although she didn't know how Shishou managed all these feats, she still wanted to see Kushina.

Shishou glanced at Rin and said calmly:

"Maybe in a while."

Although a meeting between Kushina and Rin would be interesting, Shishou had other matters to attend to.

"Okay."

Rin felt a bit disappointed as she watched Shishou leave.

"Ah, so much more fell off!"

Seeing the accumulated dust at her feet, Rin sighed and resumed her cleaning.

...

In the Konoha forest,

Shishou arrived at his usual meeting spot with Tenten, only to see several shuriken flying toward him, landing on the ground not far from him.

Then, a girl's figure dashed from the distance, crashing into his arms.

"Shishou, you haven't come to see me in days."

Tenten hugged Shishou and gave him a somewhat reproachful look.

"I have to train too." Shishou smiled, explaining as he gently removed Tenten from his embrace.

Seeing herself being pulled away, Tenten wrinkled her nose but then clung to Shishou's right arm.

Having not seen Shishou for days, Tenten just wanted to hold onto him.

Seeing this, Shishou felt a bit helpless.

He realized that Tenten now really enjoyed being close to him...

Although this feeling was nice,

the fruit was not yet ripe, which meant every time he saw Tenten, he had to practice the Flying Thunder God technique afterward to distract himself.

"I made some buns today, let's eat together."

Leading Shishou to a large tree where she kept her things, Tenten happily took out a lunchbox from her bag.

Seeing the neatly arranged buns in the box, Shishou picked one up.

"Tenten's cooking skills are getting better and better."

"Shishou likes them."

"I'm glad to hear that."

"Hee, if Shishou is happy, Tenten is happy too."

"Tenten, are you going to participate in the Chunin Exams this time?"

"Yes, I hope to face you right from the start."

"Even if you don't face me, I'm sure you'll do great."

"Of course..."

After finishing the buns in the lunchbox, Shishou smiled as he untied Tenten's buns.

In his opinion, Tenten looked most beautiful with twin tails and long hair.

"Do you like me like this?"

Seeing Shishou staring at her, Tenten felt a bit shy.

"Yes, you look even more beautiful this way." Shishou nodded.

Hearing such straightforward praise, Tenten blushed, "Then I'll wear it like this just for you."

"Alright."

Shishou laughed, "Tenten, I have something for you."

"What is it?" Tenten asked curiously.

Then Tenten saw Shishou's eyes rapidly turn red, with three tomoe spinning before forming a single pattern.

Uchiha clan's Sharingan...

Seeing this, Tenten's eyes widened in shock.

Shishou used the Transcription Seal to inject the Susanoo's ocular power into Tenten's eyes, then quickly deactivated his Sharingan and smiled at her:

"This is what I wanted to give you, my secret."

"I have Uchiha blood in me, but don't tell anyone."

It wasn't until Shishou deactivated his Sharingan that Tenten snapped out of her shock.

The Uchiha clan's massacre was well-known in Konoha.

Knowing that Shishou trusted her with such an important secret made Tenten's heart race with excitement.

Tenten hugged Shishou tightly, tears of joy in her eyes, "Shishou, I love you the most."

Shishou laughed, "How much do you love me?"

"Very, very much," Tenten affirmed, hugging him tightly.

Holding Tenten in his arms, Shishou gently patted her back, "I love you too, Tenten."

Tenten smiled happily.

"Tenten loves Shishou."

"Shishou loves Tenten too."

"What does Shishou like?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I want to give Shishou something too."

"Anything from you, I'll love."

"Hehe..."

"..."

They continued chatting until dusk, when Tenten reluctantly parted from Shishou.

After leaving Tenten, Shishou returned home.

Late at night, he snuck into Ino and Hinata's homes and, while they were drowsy, applied the Transcription Seal to their eyes.

Leaving Hinata's room, Shishou also went to Hanabi's room to give her a Transcription Seal as well.

Both Hinata and Hanabi had the special Byakugan that could awaken the Tenseigan, which was crucial for his future battles against the Otsutsuki clan.

After doing all this, Shishou returned home.

Feeling the strain on his Sharingan, he frowned slightly.

"The ocular power consumption is quite high; it might take a few days to recover."

The Transcription Seal consumed a large amount of ocular power, and the Susanoo sealed within also required significant power, which greatly reduced his Mangekyou Sharingan's power.

Of course, the Mangekyou Sharingan was no longer a trump card for Shishou, so the loss was minor and would recover in a few days.

However, Shishou decided to wait until his ocular power recovered before applying the Transcription Seal to his other women.

With this in mind, Shishou headed to the moon, continuing to practice his sage techniques by sculpting statues of beautiful women.

This time, his sculptures included the KAD team and other alliance female members.

At six in the morning, Shishou finished his training on the moon and headed to the Shikkotsu Forest to rest for two hours.

As soon as he appeared in Tsunade's room, she noticed him instantly.

Seeing it was Shishou, Tsunade shifted over in bed to make room for him.

Shishou grinned and slipped under the covers.

"Holding you is the most comfortable."

Muttering this, Shishou hugged Tsunade and fell into a deep sleep.

Now, he was not used to being alone anymore.
