Chapter 774: Teaching in Konoha, the System Says I Am Tsunade

Lino Yamanaka said with a smile.

"Teacher Kitazawa, wait for me!"

Ino Yamanaka immediately ran toward the flower rack like a flash.

"This child is so rash; I hope Lord Kitazawa will forgive her."

Lino Yamanaka shook her head and said.

"I'm just cute!"

Ino Yamanaka turned her head, stuck out her tongue, and asked, "Teacher Kitazawa, don't Itachi think so?"

"Yes."

Kitazawa said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ino Yamanaka immediately showed a triumphant smile to Lino Yamanaka.

"..."

Lino Yamanaka could only smile helplessly.

But she was quite happy in her heart.

Because she could see that Kitazawa and Ino Yamanaka had a good relationship.

With Kitazawa's current status and position, befriending him was undoubtedly beneficial to the Yamanaka clan.

"Here, Teacher Kitazawa!"

Ino Yamanaka came to Kitazawa with two bouquets of white chrysanthemums.

"Thank Itachi."

Kitazawa took the two bouquets of white chrysanthemums and asked, "How much?"

"No need to pay; this is a gift for Itachi."

Lino Yamanaka shook her head and said.

"Alright then."

Kitazawa was not the type to haggle; he was very straightforward and said, "I'll go first; see Itachi at the Memorial Stone later."

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Hidden Leaf Memorial Stone.

It was crowded with people, reminding Kitazawa of holidays in his previous life.

"Kitazawa."

Kakashi Hatake walked over.

Along with him was Might Guy.

On this occasion, Might Guy didn't have his usual liveliness and appeared very quiet.

After greeting each other, they didn't chat anymore and stood waiting.

Kitazawa looked around and found his students.

Sasuke Uchiha, Hinata Hyuga, Shikamaru Nara, Kiba Inuzuka, and Yakumo Kurama were all there.

However, they were all standing with their families and ninjas from their clans.

Hinata Hyuga noticed Kitazawa and waved at him.

A moment later, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Tsunade walked over together.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi had retired early, he naturally couldn't be absent from the funeral of a war hero.

After they paid their respects first, everyone took turns placing the flowers in their hands in order.

By the time the funeral ended, it had taken about two hours.

Kitazawa was about to leave when he was stopped by Tsunade.

"Then we'll go first."

Kurenai Yuhi was very self-aware and left with Kakashi Hatake and the others.

"Come with me to a place."

Tsunade said.

Kitazawa felt her mood was a bit low.

He nodded and followed her away.

Saying away wasn't quite right; they were actually walking deeper into the Hidden Leaf Memorial Stone.

Kitazawa probably guessed what it was.

A moment later, Tsunade stopped.

In front of her was a row of tombstones.

Kitazawa took a glance.

Hashirama Senju, Mito Uzumaki, Nawaki, Tobirama Senju, and other ninjas from the Senju clan or related to it.

Tsunade stood on the spot, her face drooping.

Coupled with the black kimono she had rarely changed into, Kitazawa saw another side of her.

Kitazawa stepped forward and bowed slightly.

The two bouquets of white chrysanthemums he bought, along with Kurenai Yuhi's, had already been offered to the war heroes at the funeral just now.

"Let's go."

After he finished paying his respects, Tsunade said, "It's about time; let's go have lunch."

"Eat at home?"

Kitazawa looked at her and asked.

"I want to drink."

Tsunade met his gaze and said.

"This is a troublesome matter."

Kitazawa looked troubled and said, "Senior Sister Shizune definitely won't agree, and Itachi still have to work in the afternoon."

Tsunade didn't speak, just looked at him.

"Then should I go to work for Itachi?"

Kitazawa blinked and asked.

"Very good, I didn't misjudge Itachi."

Tsunade's mouth curled slightly, she raised her hand and patted his shoulder, and said.

The two came to an izakaya.

"Lady Tsunade, the first cup, I toast Itachi."

Kitazawa picked up his wine glass and said, "Congratulations on becoming the Fifth Hokage."

"There's nothing worth congratulating about this."

Tsunade curled her lips, clinked her glass with his, and then drank it in one gulp.

"Lady Tsunade doesn't seem to be in high spirits."

Kitazawa put down his glass and asked, "Want to bet on drinking?"

"Come on!"

Tsunade's spirits lifted, and she said, "I must get Itachi drunk today!"

"Why do Itachi want to get me drunk?"

Kitazawa twitched his mouth and asked.

"I've never seen Itachi drunk; I want to know if Itachi'll act crazy when Itachi're drunk."

Tsunade had an evil expression and said, "That must be very interesting."

"I win every time we bet on drinking."

Kitazawa said with a smile, "I guess Itachi won't see the day I get drunk."

"Damn it!"

Tsunade looked annoyed and said, "What are Itachi being arrogant about? I must win against Itachi today!"

"Then let's start."

Kitazawa extended his hands and played rock-paper-scissors with her.

Tsunade took a deep breath, bit her finger, and extended her hands very seriously.

But obviously, no matter how serious she was, it wouldn't be of any use.

"Please drink, Lady Tsunade."

Kitazawa raised his hand and said.

"I don't believe it; again!"

After Tsunade drank a cup of wine, she played rock-paper-scissors with Kitazawa again.

Cup after cup.

Ten minutes later, Tsunade's cheeks became very rosy from drinking too much wine, and she looked drunk.

"Lady Tsunade, let's pause for a moment; let's eat some food."

Kitazawa put down his glass and suggested.

"No!"

Tsunade bent down, grabbed his shoulder, and said with an unwilling tone, "Again!"

Kitazawa felt the fair skin in front of him shaking.

He shook his head and said, "Continue after eating."

"Do Itachi believe I'll throw Itachi out now?"

Tsunade looked fierce and asked.

"If Itachi throw me out, who will accompany Itachi to bet on drinking? Who will go to work for Itachi?"

Kitazawa moved his gaze away with difficulty, looked at her face, and asked.

"Itachi!"

Tsunade's expression stiffened. After staring at each other for two seconds, she sat back down and muttered, "Eat if Itachi want to eat!"

After saying that, she picked up her chopsticks, stuffed food into her mouth, and soon puffed up her cheeks.

Kitazawa couldn't help but smile.

She was quite cute.

"When does the Jonin vote start next week?"

Kitazawa picked up a piece of fried shrimp and asked.

He had to teach next week.

Except for Monday, there would be conflicts in time.

"Mon... Monday."

Tsunade answered while chewing, her voice sounding very blurry.

"That's just right."

Kitazawa nodded and said, "I don't need to ask the school for leave."

As for the villager vote, that had nothing to do with him.
