Chapter 15 : Angry ?

...

  "Be careful."

  Watanabe didn't expect that he could knock Tsunade down, so he hurriedly grabbed her, but was dragged to the ground by Tsunade.

  "Plop."

  There were several fallen leaves that flew up.

  "Hiss!"

  Tsunade gasped in pain.

  Watanabe didn't feel any pain, but only felt something soft under him.

  He squeezed it. But he felt there was 'nothing'.

  "Do you want to die!"

Tsunade's voice was filled with shame and anger.

  Watanabe raised his head and saw clearly where his palm fell.

  "Sorry."

  Watanabe felt embarrassed and immediately apologised and stood up.

  Tsunade: "..."

  Watanabe: "..."

  "You!"

  It was evident that Tsunade was trembling.

  "Sorry, this was completely an accident!" Watanabe broke out in a sweat and hurriedly explained that he really didn't mean to take advantage of Tsunade.

  Tsunade glared at him angrily and straightened her messy skirt.

  If someone else had been so lewd to her, even if it was unintentional, Tsunade would have "unintentionally" opened his head, but looking at Watanabe who was full of apology, she couldn't think of opening his head.

  After thinking for a while, Tsunade snorted and turned away, two golden ponytails swinging up and down behind her head.

  'Anxious?'

  'Angry?'

Watanabe felt more and more ashamed. Tsunade had kindly helped him improve his strength, but he took advantage of her inexplicably, which was really not kind.

  He hurriedly chased after her, but he had already explained it just now. He didn't know how to appease Tsunade at this moment, so he had to remain silent for the time being before he could think of a way to talk.

  Tsunade saw Watanabe sticking to her. Although he didn't say anything, she could clearly feel his uneasy mood, and her anger gradually dissipated.

  'Forget it, anyway, he didn't mean it, I don't need to be so petty.'

  Tsunade thought to herself, having forgiven Watanabe's recklessness.

  Then she thought of Watanabe's reckless fighting style, exchanging injuries for injuries, and couldn't help but be surprised.

  At the beginning, Watanabe couldn't even withstand a single move from her, but in just a short while, he was able to fight her head-on, and she was actually knocked down by him!

  This speed of improvement was incredible even to Tsunade.

  "I was careless just now." Tsunade suddenly spoke.

  Watanabe, who was thinking hard about how to appease her, was stunned.

  Tsunade continued, "I didn't expect you to be so tough. If I get serious, you can't even touch the corner of my clothes!"

  Her tone was full of tsundere.

  Watanabe's mind moved, and he was eager to try: "Do you want to compete again?"

  His strength has been significantly improved, and his Defence value has reached 442. He has just qualified to fight Tsunade head-on, and he hasn't had enough fun competing with her.

  Tsunade was speechless when she heard this, and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

  "I've been fighting with you for so long that I'm tired and hungry. I don't have time to spar with you anymore."

  She was so tired from beating people, but Watanabe was still as energetic as ever. Tsunade could only think of Watanabe's extraordinary willpower.

  Watanabe's face was full of disappointment.

  He had made Tsunade angry after all, and he didn't know if he would have the chance to spar with her again in the future.

  Tsunade glanced at his expression and said lightly: "I'll continue sparring with you tomorrow. I'm hungry now and need to eat."

  These words were like heavenly music to Watanabe.

  As long as Tsunade was still willing to spar with him, he didn't have to worry about anything.

  "Come to my house, I'll cook for you." Watanabe said immediately.

  "No need." Tsunade shook her head, "It's getting late, I have to go home early, otherwise my grandma will worry."

  Although the food Watanabe cooked was delicious, it took too much time, and she was afraid that she would not be able to explain to her grandma if she went back too late.

  "I will just eat ramen." Tsunade looked at Ichiraku Ramen on the street and said : "Do you want to join me?"

  Eating is the best way to get closer to each other, and Watanabe certainly wouldn't refuse.

  The two came to the store, and a young apprentice named Teda was diligently wiping the table.

  "What would you like to eat, sir?" The boss greeted me with a smile.

  Tsunade looked at the menu for a while and ordered two signature ramen.

"Can you make ramen too?" While waiting for the noodles, Tsunade chatted with Watanabe casually.

  Watanabe thought for a while and replied: "No, I haven't learned it, but if you like it, I can learn it."

  He didn't mean anything else, he just wanted to get closer to Tsunade.

  But this sentence sounded peculiar to Tsunade.

  'What do you mean if I like it, you will learn it? It sounds like we are doing something.' Tsunade thought.

  'Although it sounds quite comforting.' Tsunade thought.

  "You should learn ninjutsu first. I guess you have the worst ninjutsu foundation in the class." Tsunade put on a teaching posture.

Watanabe disagreed. His current chakra value is at least 153. Even if it is not as good as Tsunade, at least he is not at the bottom of the class.

  "The school only teaches the basic three-body technique, which I have already learned. I want to learn other advanced ninjutsu but I have no place to learn it." Watanabe said regretfully.

  'Want to learn advanced ninjutsu...'

Tsunade was thoughtful. There were too many of those things in her family.

  All the ninjutsu developed by her second grandfather were left to her as an inheritance.

  ...

  "Midori, run slower."

  On the street, Inuzuka Kiba was chasing the puppy in front of him. This scene attracted the attention of passers-by.

They don't know whether it was a person walking the dog or the dog walking the person.

  After chasing for a while, a familiar figure suddenly flashed in front of Inuzuka Kiba.

  "Hmm? That's Tsunade?"

  Inuzuka Kiba was stunned. Through the curtains that were occasionally lifted by the ramen shop, he saw two beautiful golden ponytails. The back of the owner of the ponytails was slender and graceful.

  Then Inuzuka Kiba's eyes fell on the boy next to Tsunade.

  "Watanabe?"

  Inuzuka Kiba recognized Watanabe's profile at a glance. After all, they were classmates.

  "How did Tsunade get together with Watanabe!"

  Inuzuka Kiba couldn't understand. After school, he invited Tsunade to his house to see the puppies, but Tsunade didn't agree. He didn't expect that Tsunade would go together with Watanabe after rejecting him.

  Although Watanabe has been very popular with girls in the class these days because of the battle with Tsunade, in Inuzuka Kiba's eyes, Watanabe is still the last one in the class, a fatherless and motherless civilian orphan.

  'My situation is much better than his. Even though I can't play with Tsunade, why can he?'

Inuzuka Kiba suddenly became jealous. His dog Midori didn't chase after him, it squatted on the street and observed the two silently.

  …

  "One hundred ryo, thank you."

  Owner said to the two of them seriously.

  Tsunade was about to pay, but Watanabe gave her a hundred ryo before her.

  Tsunade found it funny that he was very skilled in grabbing the bill.

"Do you often treat others to meals?" Tsunade said.

  "No." Watanabe shook his head seriously: "I have only treated you in this life."

  His financial strength does not allow him to treat anyone, except Tsunade, after all, she needs help from others.

  Tsunade felt strange in her heart.

  She was just joking when she asked, but she got a reply that made her heart flutter.
