Chapter 306: A Surprise Lasting All Night

"Lord Hokage, the usual?"

Facing a regular customer, the proprietress looks at Senju Tsunade with a smile, ready to arrange her usual order.

But Senju Tsunade waves her hand and says.

"I won't drink that much today; I have things to do in a while."

"Just bring some sake and some snacks."

"Coming right up~"

The proprietress responds and immediately gets busy.

Jiraiya looks at Tsunade with a surprised expression.

"Why are you only drinking so little? This doesn't seem like your personality."

"Mind your own business."

Senju Tsunade can't be bothered to deal with Jiraiya and rolls her eyes directly.

Because she recently received complaints about Jiraiya peeking into the women's bathhouse.

Previously, to avoid such things from happening, Senju Tsunade had directly given Jiraiya a mission to scout in an enemy country.

She had thought it would make Jiraiya disappear for a few months.

She didn't expect Jiraiya to not only finish the mission early but also get complained about immediately upon returning.

This caused Senju Tsunade, who is also one of the Sannin, to be very embarrassed.

After all, in the eyes of many Konoha villagers, the Konoha Sannin have always been a single unit.

If one prospers, all prosper; if one suffers, all suffer.

Although this impression has gradually faded since Senju Tsunade became Hokage, it clearly didn't happen overnight.

It requires the passage of time to be clearly separated.

Therefore, Senju Tsunade is currently very annoyed to see Jiraiya.

Naturally, she can't be bothered to answer Jiraiya's question.

Jiraiya is rebuffed and shows an awkward, sheepish smile.

Uzumaki Kushina smiles and says.

"Actually, my husband plans to show us a surprise, but the time hasn't come yet, so we are strolling around."

"Tsunade-nee felt a bit thirsty, so we came here to sit for a while."

Hearing the term "husband," Namikaze Minato feels as if a sword has been thrust into his heart.

Although Uzumaki Kushina has been married to Senju Xingye for several years, he has also married and had his first child.

Yet, the moonlight that once shone in his heart still deeply tugs at his soul.

However, Namikaze Minato is not an ultimate sycophant like Uchiha Fugaku, so he won't do anything irrational.

"So that's how it is. I wonder what kind of surprise it is?"

"Since it's something Xingye-kun prepared specifically for you, it must be very exciting."

Although he feels sour inside, Namikaze Minato still forces a smile as he says this.

Senju Xingye smiles and says.

"Rather than calling it a surprise for them, it's more of a surprise for Konoha Village."

"I posted the specific time on the village notice board, but looking at how you don't know, you must not have seen it yet."

Jiraiya blinks curiously.

"A surprise for the village?"

"That's right. If you two have time, why not head to the hillside on the west side of the village in half an hour."

"Since Xingye-kun says so, we will definitely go and take a look."

Jiraiya's curiosity is piqued, and he agrees on behalf of Namikaze Minato.

Fortunately, Namikaze Minato is also very curious, so he doesn't say anything.

After chatting for a while longer.

The group leaves together, heading toward the hillside on the west side of the village.

By now, the villagers who saw the notice have packed the place so tightly that not even water could pass through.

However, for those ninjas, simply finding a rooftop or standing on a tree canopy means they don't need to squeeze into the crowded streets.

The people below are all civilians of Konoha Village.

As soon as they arrived, Jiraiya and the other man got separated from Senju Xingye and his group.

Or rather, Senju Xingye took his two wives and left alone, heading to a secret spot.

He brought his two wives to an empty pavilion.

This was something he created temporarily using Wood Release, just to be able to enjoy the best view.

"How is it? The view here is not bad, right?"

Senju Xingye says with a smile. ===== CHAPTER 310 =====
