Chapter 135 This is fate
"Tsunade? What are you doing here...?"
Tobirama was surprised that Tsunade would suddenly appear at his house, so he immediately used genjutsu to confuse her and make her think it was an illusion.
The illusion was used hastily, and because he didn't want to accidentally hurt Tsunade, the illusion wasn't very effective.
"Is it just my imagination?"
Tsunade scratched her head. She had just thought she saw her second grandmother return, but it seemed like a hallucination? Could it be that she lost too badly last time?
"Whatever, I finally found this necklace, I'm going to show it off!"
Tsunade took out the necklace that Ningxia had given to Hashirama. At this time, the necklace had been infused with Hashirama's chakra, transforming it from an ordinary necklace into a priceless special necklace.
This necklace went through three owners: Hashirama, Tsunade, and finally returned to Ningxia, forming a closed loop.
"This girl..."
Tobirama could tell at a glance that Tsunade had lost the bet and was coming to him to get some pocket money.
Even though this granddaughter was not Itama's biological daughter, Hashirama and Tobirama still doted on this granddaughter who was not related to them by blood.
So she had prepared a box for Tsunade to put her allowance in long ago, and refreshed it every two weeks.
But she didn't expect that Tsunade would also dig out the necklace her sister had left behind. However, Tsunade was just a gambler and wouldn't sell it, so she was quite at ease.
"Did Tsunade learn bad habits from Hashirama?"
Ningxia's tone was low and somber. Even though he already knew about this, looking at the gambling-loving Tsunade reminded him of the future NEET blonde.
"Yes, after you left, my sister's wooden clone started gambling to relieve stress."
Tobirama sold his sister without hesitation, since he wasn't the one kneeling on the cactus anyway.
"Let's talk about it when she wakes up."
Ningxia silently made a note of it for Zhujian, planning to calculate it for her when she got back.
"Let's not talk about that now, let's... get started quickly."
Tobirama, who was just worrying about the future of Konoha, now looked like a depressed old lady, almost as if he was about to use Water Release to unlock the defeat CG for Ningxia.
But then I thought about it again, and considering that Tobirama has been working every day for years, with so much pent-up work, it really is quite...
"Is this place really safe? What if Tsunade suddenly comes back?"
Ningxia felt very unsafe, and Tobirama also felt that this place was not suitable, since it would be very awkward for Tsunade to suddenly return.
"Forget it, let's go somewhere else."
As Tobirama spoke, he pulled Ningxia away using the Flying Thunder God Technique. This time, it was a place Ningxia was familiar with—Madara and Izuna's house.
Because both women became true traitors, this place became public property. Then, after some maneuvering, Tobirama turned it into his private property.
That's right. Tobirama even had her own house in the Uchiha clan's territory. During the last Uchiha civil war, she used the Flying Thunder God Technique to get there and successfully quell the rebellion.
"Are we really going to do it here?"
Ningxia was speechless at Tobirama's perverse sense of humor, but Izuna had already forgiven Tobirama before he crossed time, so it should be fine, right?
For safety reasons, Tobirama set up a barrier before starting, ensuring that there were no third parties, before he held Ningxia's hand affectionately.
A few days later, Sarutobi and his companions finally returned, exhausted. Unlike Tobirama, who had Ningxia's unlimited chakra supply, they had traveled day and night to get back.
Looking at Itama's wife, the only remaining member of the Senju clan who could still be considered in charge, she relayed the news of Tobirama's death in battle.
"Huh? But I saw Second Madam in her room just a few days ago, with a man beside her!"
Tsunade couldn't quite remember what happened, but because of Ningxia's demeanor, even if she couldn't remember her face, she still remembered some details.
"A few days ago?"
Sarutobi and the others checked their numbers. When Tsunade saw Tobirama, it was just past Tobirama bringing up the rear, which meant...
The group felt a chill run down their spines and comforted Tsunade, saying she had just misread it.
"But I..."
Tsunade blinked, but ultimately said nothing. She was just wondering why her second grandmother would bring a stranger back, but unfortunately, she didn't see the stranger's face.
Is it just my imagination?
Tobirama silently watched the Hokage handover ceremony, and only after everything was settled did she feel relieved enough to prepare to return.
"By the way, Ningxia, I've developed a new technique. Could you help me with it?"
"water?"
"no."
"ban!"
When Tobirama realized what was happening, he glared at Ningxia in a fit of embarrassment and anger, complaining that Ningxia was just like his older sister.
"Hahaha... Tobirama's reaction is quite cute after all! Tell me, how should I cooperate with you?"
Upon hearing the word "cute," Tobirama shuddered, and then proceeded to explain his needs for this technique.
Simply put, Tobirama invented a ninjutsu that allowed people to travel to the Pure Land through the reverse Edo Tensei.
However, this technique is too dangerous, and one must have a sheep talisman from Ningxia to ensure that the person will not be permanently trapped in the Pure Land.
"What do you want to do...?"
Ningxia sensed something was very wrong, and Tobirama explained that she didn't want to waste her time sleeping, so she planned to go to the Pure Land to learn from powerful ninjas.
After all, her older sister Madara has Six Paths Mode, and Izuna has the Rinnegan. Even though they can't use it now, she's the weakest of the four, so she wants to go to the Pure Land to become stronger.
"Tobirama..."
"Don't worry, as long as you have the power, this technique can safely cross the Pure Land. And Ningxia, please."
At Tobirama's request, Ningxia finally agreed, but suggested that once the women woke up, she could have a Sage's Eye and a Sage's Body.
"Um."
Using the power of the Sheep Talisman without reservation in Ningxia, Tobirama quickly opened a passage connecting the Yin and Yang realms and walked in. Immediately afterward, the passage disappeared.
After a while, Tobirama opened the passage and came back in, then went back in, then went back in again.
After several repetitions and confirmation, Tobirama decided to go to the Pure Land for twenty years of further study. After that, she would return and fall into a deep sleep like everyone else.
"Alright then... be careful."
Ningxia not only gave Tobirama more power to protect her, but also replenished her with famous swords to ensure her safety.
"Well, see you in the future..."
While his hunger level was still full, reason prevailed, and Tobirama reluctantly bid farewell to Ningxia.
After Tobirama left, Ningxia re-examined the seal and closed the door.
Before leaving, Ningxia wanted to replenish her energy, so she found a ramen shop in Konoha. The shop owner's appearance was surprisingly similar to that of the old man, Tetsuji.
The store manager was very enthusiastic, as he had just opened the store and wanted to ask what reviews Ningxia had of the store.
Ningxia, out of goodwill, offered many suggestions and then casually mentioned the name Yile.
"Thank you for your review. In that case, from now on, I'll call my ramen shop Ichiraku Ramen!"
Ningxia almost choked, looked up at the honest-looking uncle in front of her, hesitated, and thought, "Oh well, maybe this is fate?"
