NPC Tsunade and the Seven Deadly Sins (Probably Just Lust)

"The interior is a near-perfect replica of the Hokage Building."

Uchiha Kage cautiously walked up the stairs.

But whether in the lobby or in any of the other rooms, he didn't see anyone.

Could it just be an empty building?

With this suspicion, Uchiha Kage pushed open the door to the most central room of the Hokage Building – the Hokage Office.

"Are you a ninja here to receive a mission? Unfortunately, there aren't any missions to assign you today."

A blonde woman, hunched over the Hokage's desk, writing a document without looking up, said to the boy who had just pushed open the door.

"Tsun... Tsunade?"

Isn't the current Hokage still that old geezer Sarutobi Hiruzen? How could Tsunade be sitting here?

Did I transmigrate again?

Uchiha Kage tentatively walked up to Tsunade.

"To address the Hokage by her given name, you're really impolite."

Tsunade finally looked up at the person in front of her.

However, Uchiha Kage noticed that there seemed to be no spark in her eyes. Rather than looking at him, it was more like she was looking at the air behind him.

"Strange..."

Even if Tsunade didn't recognize him in his current form, she shouldn't be making such mechanical expressions and movements.

"There are no missions for you today."

"You..."

Looking at Tsunade's calm expression, listening to her flat tone, and hearing these repeated words, Uchiha Kage suddenly had a bold guess.

"NPC?"

She couldn't... be a real person, could she?

Uchiha Kage boldly took a few more steps forward, this time standing almost right in front of Tsunade.

"You're really impolite. You should call me Hokage."

Tsunade, still sitting in her chair, turned her gaze to Uchiha Kage's direction, but without any extra expression.

She looked at him expressionlessly, like a delicate porcelain doll.

"Looks like she really is just an NPC."

Uchiha Kage suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then nonchalantly sat down on the desk in front of Tsunade.

"There are no missions today..."

"Still, isn't this a little too realistic?"

Sitting on the desk, he looked down at the blonde woman in front of him, who was shapely, with delicate features, and a figure so hot that there wasn't a single flaw.

An angel's face, a devil's figure.

Uchiha Kage only glanced into the abyss, but he couldn't take his eyes away.

Mature Tsunade's allure was irresistible.

"Even her skin is so tender and fair."

Realizing that the Tsunade in front of him was just an NPC, Uchiha Kage reached out without hesitation and touched her cheek.

"Stop fooling around! This is the Hokage Office!"

Tsunade suddenly stood up.

She's, she's alive?

Uchiha Kage was startled by Tsunade's sudden movement and quickly retracted his hand.

Seeing the blonde woman in front of him reveal an angry expression and say lines that were different from before, he began to suspect that she might not be an NPC after all.

But after waiting quietly for a while, the Tsunade in front of him seemed to have returned to her factory settings, sitting back down at her desk and continuing to scribble on the document with her pen.

"Wait, this NPC *has* a third line?"

Seeing that Tsunade had no extra reaction, but was just writing meaningless words on the desk like a robot, Uchiha Kage finally completely relaxed.

This is just an NPC.

And maybe, this is just a dream.

"If it were before, I definitely wouldn't do anything, but the current me..."

Just wants to be an evil Uchiha.

"Let me see just how realistic you really are."

Drip.

Bright red blood slowly dripped into the dark, damp underground from the cold, gleaming, frost-covered longsword.

Scrape, scrape.

The dragging blade made a chilling scraping sound.

This was a completely enclosed underground space, mostly shrouded in darkness.

"Why?"

Uchiha Kage looked at the white-haired ninja walking towards him, listening to the sound of the blade dragging on the ground, and subconsciously backed away.

But the blade was right in front of him, and behind him was a dark and hard wall.

He had nowhere to escape.

"Innate evil Uchiha brat..."

Without any extra explanation, the white-haired ninja, seeking a sure kill, used his most powerful Ninjutsu on the Uchiha boy in front of him.

Flying Thunder God Slash!

A flash of white light streaked past, and the red light of exploding blood instantly filled the entire space.

----

"!? "

Uchiha Kage subconsciously grabbed his chest, panting heavily.

A dream?

He went to the bathroom.

The pale face in the mirror, covered with cold sweat, was still reminding him of the danger of the nightmare he just had.

"Senju Tobirama... sooner or later I'll dig you up and whip your corpse!"

Splashing cold water on his face, Uchiha Kage looked at himself in the mirror gradually calming down, and gritted his teeth secretly.

This wasn't the first time he had this kind of dream.

As a transmigrator, Uchiha Kage awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan at birth, but unfortunately, the era he was in was the Konoha ruled by Senju Tobirama.

Therefore, when he was still young, he was often locked in the basement by Senju Tobirama and used as a special experimental subject for research.

Until one day, it seemed that he had finally given up, or perhaps he was worried about the danger brought about by his Mangekyo Sharingan abilities...

Senju Tobirama still dealt him a fatal blow.

But unexpectedly, he didn't die by Senju Tobirama's blade, but inexplicably came to the Uchiha Clan Grounds decades later, and it happened to be on the Night of the Massacre.

Along with this change, his body had also become several years younger.

Thanks to this change, the Flying Thunder God Mark on his body completely disappeared.

At the same time, because he was too young, when he crawled out of the pile of dead people from the Uchiha clan, he didn't receive too much trouble from Sarutobi Hiruzen.

But it also seemed to be due to the side effects of traveling through time and space, his Mangekyo Sharingan could no longer be opened, and his Chakra had disappeared along with it.

So, having lost his power, he could only try to secretly recover his strength while honestly following Uchiha Sasuke into the Ninja Academy, until now.

"That was a dream just now, but the previous one..."

Feeling the Chakra increasing in his body, recalling the realistic sensation of lightning from last night...

That completely real feeling, and the Chakra now filling his body, absolutely couldn't be fake.

An overly realistic instance, and an overly realistic NPC...

Is this my game finally starting?

"Why are you out so late today?"

Passing through the broken walls and ruins of the Uchiha Clan Grounds, just as he reached the gate, Uchiha Kage saw a blue figure leaning against the side.

Uchiha Sasuke.

Ever since crawling out of the pile of dead people on the Night of the Massacre, the two of them, the remaining members of the Uchiha clan, had been forced to become the closest relatives in the world.

"Had a nightmare."

"A nightmare?"

Could it be that strange dream from last night...

Uchiha Sasuke remembered being blown to ashes in a dream last night.

No, how could two people have the same dream?

Shaking his head, Sasuke dismissed this absurd idea.

"I'll kill that man. You don't need to worry about it."

Since it wasn't that strange dream, Uchiha Sasuke subconsciously believed that the source of Uchiha Kage's nightmares was his "good brother," Uchiha Itachi.

For many years, he had also been awakened by nightmares.

Every day when he opened his eyes and saw the desolate and broken Clan Grounds, the scene of the clan members' corpses piled up like mountains and rivers of blood on the Night of the Massacre would emerge in his mind, as well as the scene that guy forced him to watch - his parents being pierced by a long sword and blood splattering.

With each passing day, Uchiha Sasuke's hatred for Uchiha Itachi grew deeper.

How much he loved this brother before, that's how much he hates him now.

"No, I..."

Uchiha Kage really wanted to ask Sasuke in front of him if he still had the memory of that instance from last night, but seeing him in this state of being unable to extricate himself from hatred, he didn't know how to open his mouth for a moment.

"I'll kill him, and you will focus on revitalizing the Uchiha Clan."

The bloodshot eyes gradually returned to normal. Facing this only remaining clan member, Uchiha Sasuke's expression and tone were rare and much gentler.

"This was decided long ago."

Although this guy is a useless bum who can't even activate the Sharingan, he is also a clan member that he must protect.

"Also, take your bento."

"Let me make it next time..."

Looking at the bento box handed over by the other party, and that unquestionable tone, Uchiha Kage couldn't help but rub his forehead.

He always felt that he was being forcibly treated as a younger brother by this Sasuke.

Even though he was older than him.

"See you at school."

Unfortunately, Uchiha Sasuke was as aloof and self-important as ever and wasn't in the habit of listening to others. After putting the handmade bento in his hand, he had already disappeared from the spot.
