Chapter 909: Teaching in the Hidden Leaf, the System Says I

"The two of us, teacher and student, are more than enough to deal with Orochimaru."

Kitazawa felt much more at ease upon hearing this.

"Even so, when facing Orochimaru, Itachi must be on your guard with twelve times the focus."

Tsunade cautioned.

"Yes, Teacher Tsunade."

Kitazawa immediately replied.

"I really didn't expect the Anbu to be able to discover Orochimaru's tracks."

Tsunade's gaze fell upon the campfire, and many memories of the past surfaced in her mind.

"It was just good luck, we happened to run into him."

Kitazawa fabricated a lie.

"Let's leave it at that."

Tsunade sighed in her heart and said.

To be honest, she hadn't thought about how to handle Orochimaru after capturing him.

She suddenly understood Hiruzen Sarutobi's feelings when facing Danzo Shimura; it was indeed very difficult to make a firm decision.

"Shall we sleep then?"

Kitazawa blinked and asked.

"Hmm."

Tsunade replied, then her expression stiffened slightly.

But since things had come to this, there was no need for her to be coy.

The two entered the tent, took out their respective sleeping bags, and lay inside.

Tsunade closed her eyes, but after a moment, she subconsciously looked at Kitazawa.

He had already drifted off to sleep, his breathing becoming very steady.

Tsunade was stunned for a moment, realizing she wasn't even as calm as he was.

She quickly regained her composure and closed her eyes.

The night passed without incident.

Time arrived at the next day.

Tsunade woke up.

She opened her sleeping bag, sat up, and found that Kitazawa was already gone.

A faint warmth drifted in from outside the tent.

Tsunade couldn't help but smile.

Actually, this kind of life was quite nice.

Tsunade left the tent.

"Itachi woke up quite early today."

Kitazawa glanced at her and said.

"I only woke up late yesterday because I was drunk."

Tsunade sat opposite him and argued defensively.

"Do Itachi even believe that yourself?"

Kitazawa casually handed her a rice ball and asked.

"Nagging!"

Tsunade rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction.

After breakfast, they continued on their way.

By the afternoon, they arrived at the capital of the Land of Fire.

Relying on Tsunade's connections, they easily met with the Daimyo's Lady.

"Tsunade, long time no see. How do Itachi have time to see me today?"

The Daimyo's Lady chatted with Tsunade very enthusiastically.

Kitazawa listened from the side without interjecting.

After some pleasantries, Tsunade brought up the main business.

"Itachi want to give me a necklace?"

The Daimyo's Lady asked with some surprise.

Tsunade didn't answer and took out the necklace Kitazawa had provided.

"This... this is truly beautiful!"

The Daimyo's Lady suddenly widened her eyes and murmured.

She fell in love with the necklace instantly and began to examine it, unable to put it down.

"This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful necklace!"

The Daimyo's Lady exclaimed.

"Only this kind of necklace is worthy of Itachi."

Tsunade said with a faint smile.

"Are Itachi really going to give it to me?"

The Daimyo's Lady asked in disbelief.

"I am indeed going to give it to Itachi."

Tsunade paused and said, "But there is a small request."

"Go ahead."

The Daimyo's Lady said without a care.

"It's like this."

Kitazawa explained their request.

Simply put, there were two points.

First, the Daimyo's Lady had to wear this necklace and walk around various high-society venues in the capital of the Land of Fire.

Second, the Daimyo's Lady was to provide a venue for a necklace auction and invite all the noble ladies to attend.

"No problem."

The Daimyo's Lady agreed after a moment of thought.

In her view, getting a priceless necklace for such a small price was a massive profit.
