Konoha Village, the famed ninja village of the Land of Fire, buzzed with activity as countless ninja passed through.
"Finally back," Anko said happily, looking out over Konoha.
"Yes, we're home." Tian Yuan felt a touch of wonder. He'd stepped away able only to rival Chunin—and returned with strength capable of defeating Jonin, all in a short time.
Of course, Tian Yuan hid his power, so no one knew. Orochimaru could never guess that at eight years old Tian Yuan already matched Jonin-level might—far surpassing even Kakashi. And Tian Yuan didn't need to fabricate a lie about where he'd been; he certainly wasn't going to admit he'd taken on the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki, Killer B.
"Let's submit our report," Orochimaru said with a slight smile. They passed through Konoha's great gates, and local ninja bowed and called, "Lord Orochimaru!"
As one of the Legendary Three, Orochimaru's prestige in Konoha was immense. Under Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Three Konoha Sannin were unmatched—Minato Namikaze, though a fine Jonin, still lacked that legendary renown.
After turning in their mission, they left the administration hall.
"All right—rest for three days. Then we'll undertake a new mission," Orochimaru told Tian Yuan and the others. "If you have questions, come to me."
"Yes, Orochimaru-sensei," they replied in unison.
Once Orochimaru departed, Anko perked up again. "Tian Yuan, let's go for barbecue—Juken can join if he wants."
"Boring." Uchiha Juken said dryly. "Tian Yuan, I'm heading off."
"Okay." Tian Yuan nodded. Perhaps because Tian Yuan had indirectly saved him, Juken's attitude had softened.
As Juken left, Anko looked at Tian Yuan.
"Hey Anko—how about barbecue tomorrow?" Tian Yuan's gaze flickered—he'd noticed something.
"Barbecue tomorrow?" Anko sized him up. "You mean it?"
"Of course," Tian Yuan said quickly. "We can invite Uzumaki Tsukimi too."
"That kid…" Anko thought of the little brat Usugumo Yugao.
"You're only three years older than her," Tian Yuan said, exasperated at Anko's grown-up airs.
"I'm a ninja!" Anko's cheeks flushed. "I'll come see you tomorrow."
"All right, Anko—see you then." Tian Yuan waved as she vanished, then blinked away himself and set off.
He'd detected another video signal. Though ordinary videos seldom held treasures, Tian Yuan loved sampling them like a lottery. You never knew when you'd hit something great, and these common videos were easy to access. With his new power, he could venture deep and return safely.
"Except this signal lies beyond Konoha's borders." Tian Yuan traveled on until white mist drifted before him.
"A hot spring?" Tian Yuan paused. He'd found his signal's location—a vast pool surrounded by steam. Two figures lay within: one petite and the other blessed with a generous bosom that bobbed enticingly.
"Oh dear." Tian Yuan smiled wryly—he'd struck gold: Tsunade and Shizune. How were they here?
…
"Shizune, comfortable?" Tsunade reclined in the spring. She'd discovered this hidden onsen while unleashing her monstrous strength, accidentally cracking open the earth and letting hot water gush forth. The pool's warmth and location were ideal—close to Konoha yet remote enough to avoid intruders.
"Mm, very relaxing." Shizune's cheeks glowed from the water's heat.
And, legend said, massaging one's breasts in an onsen could increase their size. Tsunade chuckled. "Shizune, you should work hard on that."
"I know, Lady Tsunade." Shizune glanced at Tsunade's ample chest and her own modest one, lowering her gaze. Youth and genetics favored Tsunade—her breasts were truly the Hokage World's supreme delight.
As Tian Yuan neared, Tsunade's face changed. She stood swiftly, wrapping a towel around herself. "Who's there?"
"Just me, Lady Tsunade." A familiar voice—and then Tian Yuan stepped into view.
