Chapter 126: Husband - Wife Hot Spring Fish Therapy

Hot springs are quite common in the ninja world.

Jiraiya is a master of hot springs and has studied the hot springs in various countries.

Haruki learned from him for a while.

It wasn't his own will, but rather he was dragged along by Jiraiya.

However, once Haruki became Tsunade's boyfriend, he was mercilessly dumped by Jiraiya.

But his experience remained. With the charm of money, he rented out a hot spring.

The warm steam filled the air.

Tsunade sat by the spring, took off her shoes, and showed her fair feet.

Whether it was due to the hot spring or not, her face was extremely rosy, like a ripe tomato.

Haruki was soaking in the hot spring. Seeing her hesitant actions, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"Do you want me to help you?" He waved and said with a smile, "I'm quite good at being considerate."

Tsunade gave him a glare, then didn't hesitate any longer and slipped into the hot spring in a few quick movements.

But only her head was visible.

She kept a distance of about two meters from Haruki. Her eyes dared not look at him and only stared at the curling mist.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as Haruki made a move, she looked at him warily, crossing her arms in front of her chest.

But it was completely useless.

"I'll scrub your back."

Haruki stared at the white expanse, swallowed hard, and before Tsunade could refuse, he had already moved behind her.

He took out a towel and started to wipe her back.

Tsunade's body went stiff.

But soon her skin turned red.

Ten minutes later, Haruki patted her on the shoulder and said, "The front."

"No... it's not necessary, right?" Tsunade quickly shook her head.

"How can you stop halfway when doing something?" Haruki turned her body around and continued to wipe.

Tsunade's face gradually flushed red all the way to the tips of her ears, like a rosy sunset.

Haruki held back the feeling of almost exploding and asked, "Do you know about fish therapy?"

"Fish therapy?" Tsunade asked subconsciously. Her mind was completely blank at the moment.

"Yes, it's a special beauty treatment. Little guys called kissing fish can live in hot springs. They can suck the bacteria and viruses on the surface of human skin, which helps relieve fatigue and treat pain."

"Um, it's quite amazing."

Listening to Haruki talking, Tsunade's nervousness and shame were somewhat alleviated. "It would be nice to try it if I have a chance."

"You can experience it right now." Haruki stopped his action and said with a smile.

"Right now? Where are there any fish... Ah." Tsunade widened her eyes, took a deep breath, "What a huge... fish."

"How's the fish therapy?" Haruki put his arm around her and the corner of his mouth curled up.

Tsunade's breathing was intermittent. She didn't speak immediately. After a long time, she tightly hugged Haruki.

"This big guy is so ferocious and only knows how to pick on others."

"But I think the effect seems quite good."

Looking at the water droplets on her face, forehead, and body, Haruki said with a smile, "Sweating means the effect is excellent."

Tsunade gave him a weak glare and then shouted, "Here it comes again! I'll definitely catch it after this is over!"

"Then you're in for a treat." Haruki blinked, "I heard you can eat this kind of fish raw."

Tsunade was startled at first, then showed a disgusted expression. "I'd rather die than eat it!"

"Just give it a try. It's very nutritious," Haruki said as he stroked her stiff body.

"Hehe, I don't like raw fish. I prefer it cooked."

Tsunade showed a dangerous smile on her face, which made Haruki's scalp tingle.

But the next second, a deep red flush appeared on her snow - white cheeks, and her mouth opened silently.

Haruki proudly lifted his chin.

Tsunade's golden hair was wet with the hot spring and sweat, sticking together in clumps.

"Damn it! I don't believe it!"

She gritted her teeth and said, with a look of unwillingness on her face.

"Shall we make a bet?"

Haruki suddenly got interested. Tsunade's expression was really interesting. He smiled and said, "Let's bet on who gets up first tomorrow."

"What's the stake?"

When it came to gambling, Tsunade naturally wouldn't miss it. She could bet on anything, and she didn't think she would lose.

"One thing. The winner can make the loser do one thing."

"Okay!"

Tsunade took a deep breath, causing the water surface to ripple. She was determined to take down this big fish.

Haruki's face changed slightly.

He felt like a lone boat in a storm, with waves crashing over him, making his body tremble involuntarily.

...

The next day.

Obito Uchiha, Kakashi Hatake, and Rin Nohara stood in front of Haruki's room.

Their gazes rested on the wooden plaque hanging on the door.

There was a sentence engraved on it:

Your teacher has some business and has gone out with your teacher's wife. In the morning, your new teacher, Kakuzu, will give you a lesson. Listen carefully!

"A new teacher?"

Obito was a bit confused.

Where did this new teacher come from?

Did Haruki go to invite him in the middle of the night?

Just then, the door of the next - door room opened, and a gloomy - looking Kakuzu appeared in front of the three of them.

He was slightly stunned, and then noticed the content on the plaque.

But Kakuzu's first reaction was, an opportunity! His chance!

He quietly sized up Haruki's three students.

The atmosphere was a bit tense.

Finally, Rin Nohara spoke up. "Excuse me, are you Teacher Kakuzu?"

To be honest, Kakuzu's appearance was really a bit scary.

"Yeah."

Kakuzu nodded indifferently. "Since Haruki has entrusted you to me, I will naturally do my duty. Follow me."

He turned around and left the inn.

This chapter is not over yet!

The three of them looked at each other.

This teacher seemed a bit cold.

Although Haruki is a bit sly at times, he gives a very sunny and friendly impression, making people smile involuntarily.

However, they didn't say anything.

Since Haruki had asked Kakuzu to be their teacher, he wouldn't harm them.

Kakuzu seemed calm on the surface, but his heart was pounding.

He spread his Sensor ability to the limit but still couldn't detect the whereabouts of Haruki and Tsunade.

Could they really have something to do instead of testing me?

He left Omi Town with a nervous heart.

"Teacher Kakuzu, where are we going?"

Kakashi asked as he saw them gradually moving away from the town.

He instinctively felt that the teacher in front of him didn't seem like a good person.

"Go to the outskirts for Ninjutsu practice," Kakuzu replied without slowing down, taking a moment to spare.

What he said was half true and half false.

Going to the outskirts was true.

If Teacher Haruki didn't show up, he would take these three kids and make a run for it.

As for why he took them, it was naturally to hold them as hostages.

"Don't worry. Teacher Haruki knows Flying Thunder God Technique. He can find us," Obito said with a smug look on his face. "Are you missing Teacher Haruki? Oh, Kakashi, you also..."

"Shut up, idiot!" Kakashi gave him a cold glance.

"Flying Thunder God?!"

Kakuzu was just about to say, "Farewell, cage!" when he suddenly heard these three words. His body stiffened and he stopped in his tracks.

"Yeah, Teacher Haruki knows Flying Thunder God Technique. No matter where we are, he can arrive in time," Obito said carelessly.

Damn it!

Kakuzu felt a sense of foreboding.

He raised his dull eyes and looked at the blue sky.

I'm so stupid, really. I only knew he could use Wood Release. I didn't know he could also use Flying Thunder God Technique.
