บท 45: Chapter 45
After an hour had passed, Rin approached both Tatsuya and Tsunade, presenting each of them with their requested items. Steam seemed to billow from Rin's head, giving the impression that Tatsuya believed she was somehow possessed by Hyuga Hinata.
"You bought it?" Tatsuya's astonishment was palpable as he glanced at the box of condoms that Rin had handed him.
Tsunade's eyes widened at the sight of the small box of condoms Rin had handed Tatsuya, clearly taken aback by the unexpected purchase.
Rin, who was aware of the nature of the items, remained silent. She cast her gaze downwards, fidgeting with her toes as if she wished to vanish into the ground.
"You let a young girl like her buy these kinds of things? What is she going to think in the future?" Tsunade exclaimed, her frustration causing her to elbow Tatsuya forcefully.
"No, no, it wasn't me who bought these," Rin quickly interjected, lifting her head and gesturing to the small box. "Kakashi and Obito got them for me."
"Really?" Tsunade's eyes widened even further in surprise.
Tatsuya couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, intrigued by the unfolding narrative. How did Kakashi and Obito become involved in this endeavor?
With a blush tinting her cheeks, Rin recounted the events that had transpired in Konoha an hour earlier. Obito had coincidentally crossed paths with Kurenai, accompanied by a lingering dog named Asuma.
Inquiring directly about the meaning of the term "Rubber," Obito received an unexpected slap from Kurenai, who understood its implications. Eventually, Kakashi revealed the truth about 'Rubber', and helped her with her buy it.
Amused by the tale, Tatsuya couldn't help but chuckle at the antics of Rin and her friends. He pondered how in the future Kakashi and Obito, despite being in their thirties, had yet to experience the use of such items.
Tsunade, initially on the brink of laughter, suddenly recalled something, causing her expression to darken once more. Her voice took on a frosty tone as she addressed Tatsuya: "Hold on a moment! Are you telling me that all these little brats now know that you've been using these things?"
Tatsuya was taken aback by Tsunade's renewed frustration. "Well, isn't it obvious?" he responded calmly. "After all, Rin was helping with your errands."
Tsunade's outrage was palpable as she forcefully charged at Tatsuya, clearly displeased with his response. "No, no! That's not the point. How will she be able to face people in the future?"
Tatsuya was rendered speechless by Tsunade's line of argument. He hadn't anticipated such concern from her over a trivial matter.
Observing their exchange, Rin's cheeks remained flushed, the memory of the shop owner's comment when all of them went to buy it, adding to her embarrassment: "Oh? Does Master Tatsuya want this again?"

Time continued its steady march forward. Over the next few years, the future famous Jonins of Konoha continued their studies at the Ninja Academy, displaying no particular eagerness to graduate prematurely.
Jiraiya accompanied Minato in training sessions beyond the village confines, while Orochimaru's presence in public was notably scarce, leading some to speculate about his whereabouts.
Amidst these events, Tsunade eventually relocated to Tatsuya's cabin, finding it more appealing than the mansions within the Senju clan estate due to her fondness for casinos.
A unique understanding seemed to have developed between Tatsuya and Sarutobi Hiruzen, resulting in a lack of overt actions from either party. While Gekko Azuki had met a rather unfortunate end as a result of Tatsuya's ninja dog, Minato had embarked on a journey with Jiraiya.
Despite the absence of overt confrontations, Tatsuya's awareness of the situation remained acute. In the wake of Shinnosuke's demise, Hiruzen had yet to divert his suspicions away from Tatsuya.
Lack of evidence and a gradual decline in strength due to advancing age likely contributed to Hiruzen's inaction. Tatsuya, too, chose a stance of relative passivity, adhering to a tacit understanding of mutual non-interference.
However, beneath this veneer of inaction, Tatsuya was far from idle. Recognizing Tsunade's sentimental attachment to the Hokage position, a role once held by both her grandfathers, he resolved to create an opportunity for her to attain that title.
Nevertheless, Tatsuya's inclination favored swift and decisive actions over protracted struggles. His approach was akin to that of an annihilating blitzkrieg, seeking to swiftly eliminate obstacles and secure victory.
...
...
Time passed, and before anyone knew it, 3 years had transpired since those earlier events in Konoha. The air was thick with anticipation as the families brimmed with excitement, heralding the arrival of the new year or new war.
Tatsuya, who had become accustomed to such occasions, took the hubbub in stride. Tsunade, on the other hand, had managed to amass a plethora of gambling debts at the casino during this period, resulting in creditors closely associating him with her, eager to collect.
Amidst this time of peace, an intriguing development unfolded. Jiraiya and Minato, who had embarked on a three-year training sojourn, finally returned to the village. The outskirts of Konoha were enveloped in a blanket of snow, and a radiant golden streak danced around Tatsuya.
Drawing his sword in a fluid motion, Tatsuya intercepted the swift glint of light hurtling toward him. The speed was such that the naked eye struggled to track its movement.
"Did you see that? Someone evaded Uncle's strike!" Kakashi exclaimed in astonishment from the shore.
Under a nearby tree, Jiraiya's smile held an air of satisfaction.
A sharp sound resonated through the air as Tatsuya nimbly swatted down a peculiar flying kunai. The deflected weapon executed a graceful midair turn before a Yellow haired figure materialized before Tatsuya. The figure's hand bore a rapidly spinning chakra sphere.
"Rasengan!" Namikaze Minato's voice rang out with fervor.
