After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

Yusuke sat quietly in the hall, his eyes focused and calm, watching Mizuno Yuki walk alone into the house where her companions were imprisoned.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. The hot steam from the tea rose, but he remained unmoved. He just waited quietly, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

During the time when Yusuke was absent-minded, Aburame Shiho acted quickly, and she methodically gathered all the bandits in the mountain stronghold. She frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, after all, she couldn't be sure whether there was a traitor among these bandits.

She divided her men into groups of five and arranged them to supervise each other while carrying out their tasks. Afterwards, she returned to the hall and saw Yusuke still in deep thought. She called softly, "Captain."

Yusuke came back to his senses, turned to look at Aburame Shiho, and asked, "Done?"

Aburame Shiho walked behind him and gently massaged his temples. Her movements were gentle and skillful. She said with a hint of reluctance: "It cannot be confirmed for the time being, so come back and see what the captain is planning."

Yusuke could hear the reluctance in her tone. He reached out and gently held her hand that was pressed on his temple, and said, "This is the worst-case scenario. Fortunately, most of our people are not on the mountain. Even if we evacuate, the most we can do is let them find a new mountain."

"Send someone to call Ye back, it's almost time." Yusuke said gently to Aburame Shiho, "Do you want to go back to Konoha?"

"Do you want to go back?" In her heart, Aburame Shiho didn't want to go back, because if she went back, she would only be Yusuke's shadow, but she knew that this day would come sooner or later.

Then, Aburame Shiho put her arms around Yusuke's neck from behind and said affectionately, "As long as you follow the captain, you can go anywhere." Yusuke gently pinched her face to comfort her.

"Actually, even without them, I would have planned to go back. I'm afraid that if I don't go back, I might be forgotten by everyone." Yusuke's tone was cold. In his heart, he still didn't quite believe that he was actually exiled to keep himself away from the center of power.

"No matter what the captain chooses, we will follow without hesitation." Aburame Shiho said firmly, then she picked up the snack on the table and fed a bite to Yusuke. "What's more, there are people who are more anxious than us." She said with a chuckle.

Yusuke understood what she meant. Since he came to the Land of Water, he could feel the anxiety of several major families such as the Uchiha Clan and the Hyuga Clan. Although the support of the Hyuga Clan was the most secretive, Yusuke had always maintained a superior-subordinate relationship with Hyuga Reine and Hyuga Hiro.

"So, it depends on whether Mizuno Yuki can convince her companions."

......

At night, the village was brightly lit, and Yujie had already learned how to enjoy the present moment. He ate leisurely, appreciating the performance of the maids on the stage, showing a calm and confident attitude.

Yusuke looked at the maids dancing on the stage. They were all trying their best to attract Yusuke's attention and truly become his women.

However, Youjie had long been accustomed to this kind of life. In this mountain village, he enjoyed everything. He knew what these helpless women were thinking, but his heart was no longer on these trivial matters.

Time passed by, and the night gradually deepened. After the maids finished their performance, they left on their own accord, leaving only two people to serve Yusuke.

Yusuke put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, stood up, slowly walked to the window, and looked at the night sky.

Aburame Shiho gently hugged Yusuke from behind and put her face on his back. At this moment, she just wanted to hug him tightly and enjoy the little possession she had. However, after a while, a slight knock on the door broke the silence.

She took a deep breath of Yusuke's breath, reluctantly let go of her hands, slowly walked to the door and opened it.

"Captain, the four of them want to see you." Shimura Maki stood at the door, followed by the four captured Mist Ninjas. After a day, their state of mind had changed dramatically.

Yusuke moved from the window to his seat and sat down, while Aburame Shiho came to Yusuke and began to boil water skillfully. Her movements were gentle and graceful, as if every movement was full of deep affection for Yusuke.

"Sir Watanabe Yusuke?" The leading Mist Ninja Jonin Qian Zhuo spoke in confusion. He learned about Yusuke's identity from Mizunoe Yuki, so he didn't feel aggrieved at all at this moment.

There was a trace of inquiry in his eyes as he stared at Yusuke closely, "My name is Qian Zhuo, and I'm a jonin from the Hidden Mist Village."

"Qian Zhuo?" Yusuke frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and found that he had no impression of this name. Then, he turned his gaze to the other two people, "What about you?"

"Kimizuki." Kizuki's voice was low and hoarse, and he looked at Yusuke with cold eyes.

"Kouju Jingsi." Kouju Jingsi answered expressionlessly. Yusuke was slightly surprised when he heard the name. He turned to look at Kouju Jingsi and asked, "Kouju Jingsi? Who is Kouju Yagura to you?"

There was still no expression on Kagami Kagami's face, and he replied calmly: "He is my brother." Yusuke did not continue to ask, but turned to look at Qianzhuo.

"I believe Mizunoe Yuki has already told you, whether to live or die here depends on your own choice." Yusuke's tone was flat, but with an unquestionable majesty.

"If we choose to live, what price will we have to pay?" Qian Zhuo stared at Yusuke coldly. His eyes were full of vigilance. He didn't believe that Yusuke would let them go so easily.

"If you survive, return to the village to hand over the mission. We will abandon this base as an explanation to you." Yusuke looked at Shiho Aburame and gently touched her hair, "But you have to pay with your freedom."

"What freedom?" Qian Zhuo's heart tensed up, and the other three also stared at Yujie with their eyes fixed, their hearts extremely nervous. Their bodies trembled slightly, as if they were waiting for a terrible verdict.

"From now on, you will be mine." Yujie raised the corner of his mouth and said lightly.

"Do you dare to believe us?" Qian Zhuo looked at Youjie calmly. He had already guessed about this request on the way here, so he was not surprised.

"Why not?" Yusuke smiled evilly, "I just need to hide something inside your body."

"What?" Qian Zhuo was a little nervous at this time. He frowned and didn't dare to breathe. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his hands were clenched into fists.

"Let's have some tea first." Yusuke took the tea handed to him by Aburame Shiho, looked at the remaining four cups of tea on the table, and manipulated the silk threads, making it look as if the teacups were floating towards the four of them by themselves.

"Line escape, it's really you?" Qian Zhuo no longer had any doubt about Yousuke's identity.

"I have the ability to fuse silk threads into your bones. From now on, your life and death will only be a thought of mine. So will you choose to accept my kindness, or are you prepared to accept the scythe of the god of death?"

Yusuke looked at the four of them jokingly, "Don't tell me that you ninjas from the Blood Mist Village can have such rich emotions." After that, he leisurely lit a cigarette and quietly waited for their responses. In the smoke, his face seemed a little blurry, but it added a mysterious charm.
