Chapter 37 - Chapter 36

As Koharu Utatane ran to Danzo, Hamura turned to Sarutobi Hiruzen and said that Tsunade must be punished. "Hiruzen, Tsunade punched the Hokage assistant in front of the whole village, I strongly advocate that she should be punished to protect our reputation."

Even Tsunade became a little tense as Hiruzen quietly took another sip from his pipe as if he didn't care about everything that was going on. Normally the anbus or Hiruzen would have moved to stop her, but this time no one stepped in front of her. She was afraid that her teacher would punish Yuta for his behavior. Just then she remembered what Hiruzen had just said and immediately all her nervousness disappeared.

"Sensei, are you really going to take Yuta as a student?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was indeed thinking about it, but he ignored Tsunade. What he had seen today made him almost eighty percent sure that Yuta was not a spy. Of course, twenty percent was enough to execute a genius, but there was also Tsunade.

When Tsunade saw that Hiruzen had not rejected her outright, she knew that he was still thinking about it.

Rising from the hole, Danzo took deep breaths, shaking with anger as he looked at the villagers who were staring at him strangely, and raised his head to look directly into Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

When Danzo saw him talking to Tsunade as if nothing had really happened, he clenched his teeth so hard that some of them snapped, causing a terrible toothache that spread to his skull. Danzo turned his head slightly to look at the anbu standing in different parts of the arena and saw them looking at him with contempt from behind their masks. The fact that Danzo had spoken what could be called an insult to the Hokage in public had enraged all the Anbu ninjas, and none of them would voluntarily come forward on his behalf, on top of that they blocked the path of the root ninja who wanted to move in.

Hamura and Koharu immediately opened their mouths to complain as Hiruzen looked angrily at Danzo's back as Danzo left. "Sarutobi, all the villagers are watching us. Even if Danzo deserved it for insulting you, you should have done it where there were no villagers."

Sarutobi answered them in a cold voice. "He has made bad decisions on more than one battle front lately, and if he speaks to me in that tone in front of the villagers, I need to remind him in front of the villagers who is the Hokage."

Tsunade looked at Hamura and Koharu as they left in anger, smiling quietly and feeling a warmth inside her after a long time. It seems the old monkey had not lost everything.

Meanwhile, not a single person in the entire arena was making a sound. Of course, one of those people was Yuta. Yuta was puzzled, wondering if I had migrated to an alternate universe or if my presence was really causing such huge butterfly effects, while raising his hands in front of his eyes and photographing every second as much as possible.

Thanks to his experience as a photographer, he was one of the earliest to notice the tension and managed to photograph every second as best he could.

A few seconds later, as the tension slowly dissipated, an anbu appeared in front of Yuta, surprising him and ordering him to visit the Hokage.

Yuta was confused about what was going on, but he made a guess based on what he had seen so far. Probably Danzo saw his abilities and asked Sarutobi Hiruzen to take him into the lineage. Tsunade got very angry and hit Danzo in a rage, so Hiruzen decided that no matter how much he loved his student, he should be initiated to protect his homosexual relationship.

Yuta scratched his head angrily as he felt as if he understood what was happening and thought that he was very unlucky today.

Even though it was almost guaranteed that he would join the roots, Yuta thought that the system was the last person who could save him from this situation and told the ninja walking in front of him to wait a second.

Yuta looked up at the sky for a few seconds and decided that the rain clouds had blocked out the sun enough to allow a demon to roam outside, so he clasped his hands together and summoned Natsume.

The Anbu ninja watched in amazement as the little girl emerged from Yuta's shadow, put a square device in her hands, and then returned to his side as if nothing was strange.

Yuta looked at the masked ninja, who continued to stare at him for a while, then announced again that he was ready. The Anbu ninja really wanted to yell at him, "You made a summoning contract with a little girl, you fucking brat," but his chosen profession had limited himself once.

Seeing Yuta summon Natsume from the shadows, many people were similarly confused as Yuta followed the ninja and confronted Hiruzen.

Hiruzen said nothing for a while, observing Yuta closely, until finally, he said something that almost gave everyone around a small heart attack. "Strip!"

Tsunade, who had been nervously waiting for them to speak, made a strange face when she heard her teacher say such a thing, but Hiruzen told her that she had been too impulsive lately and quieted her down.

The only person who knew why Hiruzen wanted such a thing was probably Yuta himself. Especially in the last month, Yuta's body had undergone some sudden changes. He used to have baby white skin, but as he continued to get stronger, that baby skin disappeared and was replaced by muscles that would look cool on a young man. So Yuta hid his body as much as he could.

Tsunade's expression showed more than shock as Yuta took off his sweater, she was not the only one surprised, the surrounding Anbu ninjas were equally amazed as they looked at the muscles that were perfectly scattered across Yuta's small frame. The Hokage, on the other hand, looked less surprised and more intrigued.
