Chapter 130: Where I go, Itachi go

Ye Cang stayed after all.

With nowhere left to go, she temporarily stayed in the Senju compound.

Just like Konan more than half a year ago.

But, there were still some differences.

"Itachi mean, Itachi don't want to stay at home all the time?"

Senju Hoshiya rubbed his chin, his brows slightly furrowed.

Ye Cang nodded and said.

"I know I am currently a wanted person by the Hidden Sand Village, but I want to find something to do."

"If I don't divert my attention to other things, I..."

"Understood."

Senju Hoshiya raised his hand to interrupt her.

"In that case, then Itachi can be an assistant by my side."

"Occasionally moonlight as a bodyguard."

Regarding the matter of a follower, Senju Hoshiya had thought for a long time without finding a suitable candidate.

Since Ye Cang wanted to do something to divert her attention, it was just right to have her try it out first.

As for whether it was suitable, one always had to try to know.

"Assistant?"

Ye Cang was somewhat bewildered.

"What does an assistant need to do?"

She had always been active on the battlefield; this was the first time she had heard the word assistant.

Senju Hoshiya explained with a smile.

"Whatever I tell Itachi to do, Itachi do. In short, Itachi must stay by my side."

"Where I go, Itachi go."

Ye Cang’s face turned red instantly.

"Never leaving your side?"

She couldn't help but start letting her imagination run wild.

Senju Hoshiya looked at her with amusement.

Ye Cang looked very straightforward, but inside she was very shy.

She almost never dared to look Senju Hoshiya in the eyes.

If their gazes met even slightly, Ye Cang would immediately turn her eyes away.

"Yes, I don't need Itachi to do anything else here for now, just follow me."

"If there is anything I forget, Itachi just need to remember to remind me."

Thinking of this, Senju Hoshiya couldn't help but recall the time he was played by Senju Tsunade.

Just as he thought of Senju Tsunade, she walked over from the opposite side.

Seeing Senju Hoshiya, she immediately walked over aggressively.

Senju Tsunade first glanced at Ye Cang, then said to Senju Hoshiya.

"Konan is pregnant."

Senju Hoshiya was stunned.

That fast?

It had only been less than half a month.

But this was a good thing.

"Is that so?"

A happy smile appeared on Senju Hoshiya’s face.

"We are adding a new member again?"

Senju Tsunade nodded and said.

"Alright, go over and keep her company."

"No problem."

Senju Hoshiya stopped shopping and used the Body Flicker Jutsu to run back to the compound.

Back home.

Senju Hoshiya saw Konan surrounded by everyone in her room.

At this moment, her expression was very complex.

Filled with the trepidation of becoming a mother for the first time, as well as an indescribable sense of happiness.

She carefully covered her stomach, even though there was no bump at all yet.

The young mothers around her who had experience were kindly advising her on matters to pay attention to.

Konan’s cheeks were slightly red as she humbly accepted the guidance of her seniors.

Seeing Senju Hoshiya, her cheeks became even more flushed.

"How are Itachi feeling?"

Senju Hoshiya sat on the edge of the bed; the others saw this and left the room with snickers, leaving the space for the two of them.

"It's very wonderful."

Konan said softly, her hand unconsciously stroking her stomach.

Senju Hoshiya placed his hand on top and said.

"This is our treasure, I will definitely protect him well."

"And Itachi."

Konan felt as if a honey pot had been smashed in her heart, sweetness filling her chest.

"Mm."

……

Time passed quietly without notice.

Three months passed in a flash.

If one were to talk about the changes in the village during this period, they were significant.

All the houses had been renovated by Senju Real Estate, and everyone was happily living in their new homes.

Except for Danzo.

Although he also lived in a Senju property, he felt a great crisis.

Now, the commoners at the bottom were increasingly supportive of Senju Hoshiya.

Other small ninja clans also began to break away from him one after another, turning to the embrace of the Senju clan.

In the Hidden Leaf Village, his Shimura clan soon became isolated and helpless.

Even the usually smooth recruitment of elite ninja to join the Root now faced great obstacles.

No one believed his rhetoric that for the sake of the Hidden Leaf's light, someone had to sacrifice themselves and plunge into the darkness.

Because without Danzo's Root, the Hidden Leaf, under the leadership of the Senju clan, was still moving forward prosperously.

This day.

Senju Hoshiya brought Ye Cang to the Hokage Building.

After three months, Ye Cang had become more and more like a qualified secretary.

She wore a simple white shirt with a lady's suit jacket on top, and a matching hip-hugging skirt on the bottom, fully displaying her beautiful figure.

"According to Lord Orochimaru’s working hours, this should be the time he is conducting experiments."

Ye Cang pushed up the plain glasses on the bridge of her nose and said with a serious expression.

Senju Hoshiya had strongly insisted that she wear these plain glasses.

After working for such a long time, she was now able to look directly into Senju Hoshiya’s eyes.

She was also able to maintain a calm state of mind.

Not to the point where her heart would race as soon as she saw Senju Hoshiya’s face.

"It's fine."

"We'll just go in quietly."

Senju Hoshiya smiled and pushed the door open to enter.

Inside the laboratory.

Orochimaru was indeed conducting an experiment as Ye Cang had said.

The test tube in his hand tilted steadily, slowly pouring the pink liquid inside into another test tube.

The liquids in the two test tubes merged and immediately began a violent reaction.

Orochimaru immediately stepped back two paces, cautiously staring at the situation of the test tube.

Soon, accompanied by the cracking of the test tube wall, the liquid inside spilled onto the experimental table.

"Record, the three hundred and forty-seventh experiment failed."

"Reason for failure, the ratio was not stable enough."

Orochimaru took off his goggles and turned to look at Senju Hoshiya.
