Tsunade

---

After finally squeezing out of the crowd, Muzan looked at the patients rushing behind him. He was so frightened that he hurried to the director's office, only to stop a group of crazy fans from dismembering him.

"You came just in time."

When Director Harano heard the commotion outside, he did not reprimand Muzan for breaking into the office. He took out some documents from his desk and looked at Muzan with a cautious expression.

"What I say next may be a bit of a shock to you, so you have to be prepared."

Because Muzan became a genin, as a well-known doctor in the hospital, and as the child of Sakumo-sama with impeccable talent and strength, Director Harano immediately found the Third Hokage. The two of them had the same purpose: they both wanted to recommend Muzan to become Tsunade-sama's disciple and even deliberately spread the word about Tsunade and Muzan in the hospital.

The reality was that Tsunade was unwilling to take care of a child, so the plan to become her disciple failed.

Muzan thought there was some earth-shattering news. Indeed, in the eyes of outsiders, his most suitable teacher was Tsunade. Only he knew the real situation. His and Tsunade's early paths were similar, but their later paths were more inclined to Orochimaru's.

"So that's it. I had no intention of becoming Tsunade's disciple."

Director Harano was stunned. This situation was different from what he expected. And what's with your indifferent attitude?

"What tone are you using? You brat! That's Tsunade-sama! Show some respect."

After teaching Muzan a lesson, Director Harano confessed his true purpose. Now that Muzan had graduated from the Ninja Academy, he could no longer be regarded as a member of the Ninja Academy. The old guy Nobiwei could no longer compete with him.

"The Third Hokage wants you to stay in the hospital and learn medical ninjutsu."

"This is the ninjutsu I requested from the medical class. You can practice it when you have time, and I will also guide you in practicing ninjutsu."

Don't underestimate Director Harano. To achieve this position, his ninjutsu ability is considered to be a special jōnin, and his role during the war is more important than that of ordinary ninja.

In order to prevent Muzan from looking down on the hospital, he deliberately placed two ninjutsu scrolls in front of Muzan and said with a bit of pride:

"See, this is A-rank ninjutsu. If I hadn't been well connected, I wouldn't have been able to get it."

The two ninjutsu are Chakra Scalpel and Healing and Regeneration, advanced versions of medical techniques. Medical Ninjutsu has great requirements on practitioners. The biggest difference between it and other A-rank ninjutsu is that there will be no obvious side effects.

If Tsunade hadn't refused to become Muzan's teacher and the Third Hokage didn't want to give up the extremely talented Muzan, he could only have left him in the medical class temporarily, hoping that when his classmates graduated, they could form a team and become a bond for each other.

"Thank you, but I'd rather use the hospital laboratory."

"I knew you would like an A-rank Shinobi... No, you just said laboratory?"

Director Harano was already numb. Why was this so different from what he thought? This was A-rank ninjutsu! Why are you focusing on the lab?

"If you really want to use the laboratory, I can give you permission, but there is a senior caregiver there, so be careful not to offend her."

"Master of the Laboratory? Don't worry, I'm just doing research and won't disturb that master."

Although Muzan didn't know who the great master was, he was friendly to others, never caused trouble, and would not have conflicts with others.

After getting the key, Muzan came to the laboratory. Since the end of the Second Shinobi War, Tsunade had started a happy fishing life. The hospital laboratory had not been used for a long time, and there was a layer of dust on it. Using the wind style, he blew away the dust accumulated on it.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

The sound of beakers colliding was endless. Fortunately, the strong wind passed by close to the ground and did not smash the experimental equipment.

"Bah! That bastard let loose in the laboratory! He made me eat a mouthful of dirt!"

A woman holding a wine bottle got up from the ground, and with her drowsy eyes, it was hard to imagine that an alcoholic would sneak into the rigorous laboratory. The clothes on this alcoholic made Muzan's pupils suddenly shrink.

"Tsunade!"

Muzan looked at her with a complicated expression. Yes, this was Konoha's legendary medical ninja, Tsunade, one of the Sannin.

"It turns out to be Tsunade-sama."

"Huh? Why does it feel so familiar?"

In a drunken state, Tsunade pressed her face against Muzan's face. A pair of Big Macs were placed right in front of Muzan's eyes. She looked at him condescendingly and even opened his robe. Only then did she realize the kid in front of her was the apprentice the Third Hokage had found for her.

"Young boy from the Hatake clan! Did you come to the laboratory to find me? It's a pity that I won't accept you as a disciple."

Touching Muzan's white hair, Tsunade's smell of alcohol made him slightly uncomfortable. He took Tsunade's hand away. Looking over the mountain, he could see the disdainful expression on Tsunade's face. He was not angry because of Tsunade's rejection. He just plainly answered:

"You are mistaken. I am not here to find you. I didn't even know you were the nursing staff in the laboratory. I am here to do experiments. Please don't disturb me from doing experiments."

"This brat, I was ignored? I want to see what he is going to do!"

Tsunade looked at Muzan passing by. It was obvious that his actions had aroused Tsunade's interest. Didn't the other party know the importance of the word "Tsunade" in Konoha?

Or was this guy playing hard to get? That's right! He must have done it on purpose.

She simply followed Muzan, wanting to know when the other party would reveal his flaws.

But later she discovered that Muzan really didn't seem to care about her. He was addicted to experiments and couldn't extricate himself.

"Is it because my reputation has declined or my beauty has gotten older? Don't kids at this age like to become Hokage or find a beautiful girl?"

It's easy to arouse a woman's interest, but you have to bear the corresponding risks, especially if the woman is a kage-level powerhouse.

Tsunade put the bottle down and noticed Muzan standing on the bench. He had a sense of focused maturity at such a young age.

She had only seen it in one person.

Orochimaru!

"Compared to me, Orochimaru is more suitable to be Muzan's teacher. This time the old man is blinded."

Remember, Orochimaru has no disciples. He is also one of the Sannin, and Muzan is Sakumo's child. It does not mean that he is insulting Orochimaru's identity. If you have time, you can entrust Muzan to Orochimaru.

Although Orochimaru at this time was obsessed with science and couldn't extricate himself, he had not yet reached the point where he lost his conscience in the later period. Coupled with the commanding effect of the Second Shinobi War, Orochimaru was the one who made the greatest contribution among the three and was also the most capable of competing for the position of Hokage.

"Hahaha! I'm really too smart! The brat will definitely be grateful to me!"
