Stop right there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar voice snapped him out of his thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa looked up to see Tsunade striding toward him in high-heeled sandals, her face etched with irritation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trailing behind her was Shizune, clutching her pet piglet Tonton and frantically signaling to Kitazawa with desperate winks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have any money on you?\" Tsunade demanded, thrusting out her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not a single ryo,\" Kitazawa replied calmly, eyeing her pale palm. He could guess where she’d just come from—a casino, where she’d undoubtedly lost every coin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"C’mon, give me whatever you’ve got! I swear I’ll win it back this time,\" Tsunade said through clenched teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady Tsunade,\" Kitazawa sighed, shaking his head, \"don’t forget we have more important business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re such a spoilsport,\" Tsunade huffed, clearly annoyed but unable to argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The sooner we create new Ninjutsu, the sooner we’ll secure proper funding,\" Kitazawa said with a faint smile. \"Besides, any pocket money I hand over would be nothing but small change—and where’s the fun in that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You’re right,\" Tsunade muttered after a moment, smoothing back her hair with an exasperated sigh. \"Fine. Let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning around, she stalked off in the direction of Kurenai’s house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Amazing...\" Shizune leaned closer to Kitazawa and whispered, \"You handled her perfectly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t think I can’t hear you!\" Tsunade snapped over her shoulder, glaring at them both.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t say anything!\" Shizune protested, standing stiff and straight, her long legs drawn primly together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Neither did I,\" Kitazawa added, wearing an innocent smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade suddenly realized how much Kitazawa reminded her of Shizune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them always managed to thwart her precisely when she was about to indulge herself—whether in gambling or impulse-driven decisions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how did Kitazawa have the nerve to talk to her like this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shizune had been with her since childhood and knew her inside out—but Kitazawa was just a young Chunin. Unlike most ninja, who quailed in fear before her, he seemed entirely unfazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suppressing her curiosity, Tsunade pushed open the door and stepped into the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Kurenai and Yakumo were already waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yakumo, did you take your medicine?\" Tsunade asked, sinking into the sofa. She kicked off her sandals and propped her legs up, her fair, delicate feet swinging idly in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just took it. Thank you for your concern, Lady Tsunade,\" Yakumo replied gratefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a long time, she’d believed her body would never function like a normal person’s—but Tsunade’s arrival had given her hope again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good,\" Tsunade said, nodding. \"Now, let’s get down to business.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, they immersed themselves in researching new Ninjutsu, working late into the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, Tsunade checked the time and let out a weary sigh. \"We’ll continue tomorrow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with Shizune in tow, she left to return to the house next door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kurenai, are you hungry?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa spotted a takoyaki stand not far away as he and Kurenai finished walking Yakumo home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Takoyaki’s nice, but it’s not that exciting,\" Kurenai said, licking her lips. A playful glint appeared in her crimson eyes. \"Want to go for a drink instead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forget it,\" Kitazawa said firmly. \"If you get drunk again, it’ll be a whole new set of headaches. Besides, we have to see Lady Tsunade tomorrow. It wouldn’t look good if we showed up late...or hungover.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s that supposed to mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai gave him a playful shove, narrowing her eyes. \"I don’t go crazy when I’m drunk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa arched an eyebrow. \"That’s...debatable,\" he said, recalling her last drunken episode a little too vividly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Care to explain yourself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai grabbed his arm, glaring up at him. Despite being shorter than Kitazawa, her intense gaze made him feel unexpectedly pressured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reminded him a bit of Tsunade—though where Tsunade radiated a commanding, mature aura, Kurenai had more of an older-sister charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you staring at?\" Kurenai demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just admiring a beautiful woman,\" Kitazawa said, unabashedly letting his gaze drift down her figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing so close, he could see the delicate curve of her pale neck and the black mesh of her undershirt peeking out from beneath her clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t say weird things!\" Kurenai shot back, cheeks warming to a faint pink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry,\" Kitazawa said, blinking innocently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No sincerity at all,\" Kurenai huffed, releasing his arm and deliberately stepping on his foot. \"I want takoyaki.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next time, please take your shoes off before you step on me,\" Kitazawa said in mock seriousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you a pervert or something?\" Kurenai asked with a mix of suspicion and exasperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just don’t like pain,\" Kitazawa replied, clearing his throat. \"I’ll go buy the takoyaki.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai glanced down at her own feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was wearing high-heeled sandals, revealing pale, delicate toes, each one slender and neatly separated—a small but striking contrast against her ninja persona.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re impossible,\" Kurenai murmured, lips curling in a slight smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Kitazawa returned carrying two boxes of steaming takoyaki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai accepted the box and picked up a piece on a wooden skewer. She held it close to her lips, then paused, glancing mischievously at Kitazawa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Want me to feed you?\" she teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you insist, how could I refuse?\" Kitazawa answered, deadpan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurenai lifted her hand halfway...then pulled it back with a sly smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too bad. It’s all mine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She popped the takoyaki into her mouth and grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa couldn’t help laughing. What a mischievous woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them chatted as they strolled along, eventually reaching Kurenai’s house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See you tomorrow,\" Kitazawa said, pausing at her gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks for the takoyaki. I’ll treat you next time.\" Kurenai opened the door, stepping inside. Then, as if struck by a sudden thought, she turned and asked, \"If I take off my shoes...do you still want me to step on you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa cleared his throat. \"I’m not that kind of person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Opportunity missed. No next time!\" Kurenai declared with a wink, then closed the door behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa stood there for a moment, his mouth twitching as he finally turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two days flew by quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to Tsunade’s assistance, progress on their new Ninjutsu project was well underway. Kitazawa estimated they’d complete their third psychological medical ninjutsu in less than half a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A new week dawned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second monthly exam was scheduled for the weekend. Kitazawa was determined to put Naruto through extra training, hoping to ensure he cracked the top ten and avoid mission failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the entrance of the Ninja Academy, a voice called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kitazawa-sensei.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa blinked out of his thoughts and turned to see Sasuke approaching him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s up, Sasuke?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke held out a small scroll. \"This is a thank-you gift...for teaching me Ninjutsu.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kitazawa raised an eyebrow. \"My first gift from you. I’m honored.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unrolled the scroll, and his eyes sharpened at its contents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside were four jutsu: Fire Release: Dragon Fire Jutsu, Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Jutsu, Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation, and Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Kitazawa felt the full weight of the Uchiha Clan’s prestige and pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had taught Sasuke two Fire Release jutsu, and in return, he now held four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Uchiha Clan never lacked Ninjutsu—the Sharingan alone made copying techniques almost second nature. Even Kakashi was said to have copied over a thousand jutsu thanks to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who told you to give me this?\" Kitazawa asked, curiosity piqued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sasuke blinked. \"My older brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN : To keep the Chapters coming - Support with POWER STONES.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Every 100 power stones - 1 BONUS Chapter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Every 10 5-star reviews - 2 BONUS Chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For getting to Top 10 Power ranking- 3 Extra Chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>AN: Check out my P@treon For extra Chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thank You For your Support!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[email protected]\u002Fnoviceauthor777\u003C\u002Fp>",1371,"2026-06-09T05:35:56.024Z",1,"novelbin.me","5c0c52dbaf6bb0aa360f92edd23dfb2c7b55e2ae266964675a47a75693e0a9a0","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-66","naruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-chapter-64",444,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-strongest-shinobi-system-with-a-glitch-cover.jpg"]
