Amegakure, Ryou and Tsunade's wedding chamber.
Konan hid around the corner of the wall to eavesdrop, and seeing Tsunade crying so painfully, she wanted to rush in to save her.
But Kiyomi pulled her back and said with a red face, "Konan, this is just some fun between husband and wife, don't get involved."
Konan said with a red face, "But, listen to that sound... I feel like Lady Tsunade is about to die."
Kiyomi stammered a bit, "This, this, maybe, maybe... Ryou is too strong!"
"...Konan, Kiyomi... quick, quick save me, this beast, he's going to kill me..."
Konan and Kiyomi immediately became anxious and rushed in to save Tsunade, ignoring their embarrassment.
"What are you doing, what are you doing? Konan, Kiyomi, do you know you're interrupting our married life?"
Konan and Kiyomi rescued Tsunade.
Tsunade put on her clothes to catch her breath, and then drove Konan and Kiyomi out.
"You bastard, are you trying to kill me?"
Ryou said weakly, "It's all because you're too tempting. I've kept my virginity for thirty years just for you."
"Bah, I'm the one who kept it for you."
Tsunade spat.
Ryou buried his head in Tsunade's embrace: "Tsunade, I've really married you. Tell me, am I dreaming?"
Tsunade wanted to scold Ryou, but seeing his gaze, she pulled back and slowly stroked Ryou's hair.
"No, it's not a dream. Your wish has come true, I am already your wife."
Ryou hugged Tsunade tightly, as if afraid she would run away.
"I won't let you leave me again."
"No, Tsunade, you must leave! You cannot stay by my side."
Ryou released the spore seal in Tsunade's body. Without the restraint of the spores, Tsunade's Chakra was restored.
Tsunade clenched her fists; her strength had returned, and because of Ryou's spores remaining in her body...
Tsunade's Chakra had become even more abundant.
Now Tsunade had no restraints; one punch of her monstrous strength could turn Ryou into meat paste.
Tsunade looked at Ryou, who seemed to be fearing something, feeling somewhat puzzled.2
Ryou already possessed power far exceeding the Sannin; what was he still afraid of?
It could only be Madara!
Tsunade stroked Ryou's hair: "Leave? Hmph! You married me and now you're planning to abandon me?"
"No, it's Madara. He, he will very likely—"
Tsunade blocked Ryou's mouth and looked into his eyes: "I have already taken your surname. Do you think I can still go back to Konoha, back to the Senju Clan?"
"Ryou, can you not protect your own woman?"
Ryou immediately toughened up: "How is that possible? How could I not protect you?"
"But, that's—"
Tsunade kissed Ryou's lips, sealing his words.
Ryou looked at Tsunade's eyes; it was a gaze that refused to admit defeat.
Before, Tsunade had been beaten into a rout by Ryou, crying for her parents, because she had no Chakra replenishment.
Now that Ryou's spores no longer sealed Tsunade's Chakra, she would never be defeated by Ryou so easily again.
With a thought, the Strength of a Hundred Seal covered Tsunade's body.
She snorted, "A mere Uchiha dares to provoke the Princess of the Senju Clan? Today, I'll let you witness the powerful physique of the Senju Clan."
Ryou erupted with an aura even stronger than Tsunade's: "What a fine Senju Princess. Today, I'll make sure you return in utter defeat."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ryou and Tsunade resumed their fierce battle.
The flames of war between the Uchiha Clan and the Senju Clan, which had ceased since the era of the Hidden Villages, were rekindled and burned fiercely.
Konan and Kiyomi eavesdropped from the corner. Seeing the flames of war reignited and Tsunade overestimating herself by provoking Ryou, they were both a bit worried.
Lady Tsunade is too arrogant.
After an unknown amount of time, a loud shout echoed through Amegakure.
"Uchiha Madara, come out!"
Following the voice was a pillar of white light that hit the tallest steel building in Amegakure, shearing off the top section made of steel.
The Ninjas of Amegakure quickly assembled.
"Who is it? What's all the noise in the middle of the night? I'll kill your whole family!"
Ryou rushed out of his house in a fit of rage, throwing on his clothes.
Ryou was in an extremely foul mood; he was right in the middle of a battle with Tsunade! That loud shout had scared him into going limp.
One could imagine how angry Ryou was.
Ryou didn't even care who the visitor was; his hands formed seals.
Multiple Wood Clone Jutsu!
Ryou created about 20 Wood Clones, all of them performing the Great Flame Rasengan together.
Then the Wood Clones launched the e Rasengans exploded in the sky of Rain, turning the horizon into a vortex like a fire tornado.
Boom! Boom!—
Ōnoki's clone simply couldn't dodge such a large-scale Ninjutsu and was quickly destroyed after being caught in the fire tornado.
After the disturbance passed, Ryou went back in.
Tsunade hugged Ryou's waist, somewhat confused: "Who was it? Coming to disturb someone's dreams so late at night."
"I don't know, probably some lunatic!"
Far away in Iwagakure in the Land of Earth.
After Ōnoki received the memories of his dissipated clone, he cursed loudly: "That brat Ryou has no Ninja ethics! To come, to deceive! To ambush! A 61-year-old comrade like me, is this right?"
Ōnoki knew Ryou; he had learned of him through the recent turmoil caused by Ryou's Immortality Technique.
Ōnoki was also getting on in years and very much wanted to regain his youth.
Furthermore, the intelligence from Yuhi Shinku had also mentioned Ryou's Fire Release Forbidden Jutsu.
Ōnoki thought for a moment and felt that he had been detected by Amegakure's Ninjas the moment he entered the Land of Rain.
They then set an inescapable net in Amegakure, just waiting for him to walk into the trap.
Although he hadn't seen Madara, Ōnoki also learned of Amegakure's current strength through Ryou's Forbidden Jutsu.
Twenty or so Fire Release Forbidden Jutsus like Tailed Beast Balls—if these exploded in Iwagakure, they would destroy half the Village on the spot.
Even without Madara, Ryou's terrifying destructive power could not be underestimated.
Through Ryou, Ōnoki could basically confirm that Madara had truly returned to the Ninja World.
He sighed; the Third Great Ninja War had finally been about to end, and now a new round of Ninja World War was about to break out.
The Ninja World truly is difficult to settle down.
