Lady Orochimaru: The Mad Scientist Who Just Wants to Escape Konoha Chapter 157 - 156: Uzumaki Mito Worries Herself Sick Over Ts

"Tsunade, you're not trying to get to go to the Casino with you, are you?"

Orochimaru rubbed her cheek, looking at Tsunade suspiciously.

Suddenly trying to please her must an she wanted sothing. From her understanding of Tsunade, she definitely wanted to go to the Casino to play a few rounds to relieve the frustration of being scolded by Grandma Mito.

"No, of course not..."

Tsunade finally understood why Hyuga Mio had said that before. Orochimaru was just a clueless blockhead!

She had been so proactive, yet Orochimaru still didn't understand at all!

She wrote Forbidden Techniques with such plots, acting as if she understood everything, but in reality, she didn't understand anything at all!

"Just simple affection?"

Orochimaru rubbed her chin, saying with a sudden realization, as if she understood Tsunade's aning. She reached out and pulled her into her embrace, gently patting her back to comfort her, "Tsunade, Grandma Mito scolded you for your own good. Don't take it to heart. Next ti, I'll get scolded with you, how about it?"

"Mm... okay..."

Tsunade felt Orochimaru's reassuring embrace, holding her waist, her hand on her back, and responded softly, her anxious and frustrated mood calming down.

Forget it, next ti!

Tsunade decided that given the opportunity, she would definitely let Orochimaru know her feelings. The thought of Orochimaru being so intelligent and excellent in all aspects, yet so slow when it ca to emotions, made her a little annoyed, and she bit her shoulder hard.

"Want to make so ti this afternoon to go to the Casino?"

Orochimaru's hand gently rested on Tsunade's head.

"You said it, not !"

Tsunade held Orochimaru's hand, a happy smile on her face.

Who wants to lose money when they can win it?

With Orochimaru there, no matter how much she lost, she would win it back!

"It's getting late, let's go buy so ingredients. What do you want for lunch, Tsunade?"

Orochimaru pulled Tsunade out, thinking about what ingredients to buy and what to cook for lunch.

"I want soy sauce chicken!"

Tsunade unceremoniously stated the dish she wanted to eat.

"Oh, right, first, accompany to Nara Pharmacy."

Orochimaru rembered the dicinal herbs she had ordered from Nara Pharmacy earlier; they should be arriving soon. The wars between small countries had sowhat affected the dicinal herb business, and with all the major Ninja Villages preparing for war, dicinal herbs were even more important strategic resources.

White Snake Pharmaceutical Technology Company had long since established its own dicinal garden, avoiding the trouble of being controlled by dicinal herb rchants.

In Konoha, when Orochimaru needed dicinal herbs, she still had to order them from the Nara Clan, the dicinal herb magnates.

Nara Pharmacy

Nara Matsuka held a book in her hand, yawning leisurely. She had achieved financial freedom long ago; helping out at the shop was just one of her few pastis, the other being to snatch the host position of "Konoha Every Day."

"Matsuka-nee, you're still as leisurely as ever."

Orochimaru walked into the pharmacy, looking at Nara Matsuka, who had completely beco a good-for-nothing adult.

"What's wrong with a leisurely life? You're so busy, just watching you makes tired."

Nara Matsuka took out a scroll and placed it on the counter, waving to Tsunade in greeting, "Tsunade, long ti no see."

"Matsuka-nee."

Tsunade smiled and greeted her, seeing the book in Nara Matsuka's hand, she felt it looked familiar.

That's... a forbidden book, isn't it?

Nara Matsuka leaned on the counter and said, "Orochimaru, when do you have ti to go to the barbecue restaurant for a al? You should know how to balance work and rest! Oh, right, when will you co on 'Konoha Every Day' with ! With you there, I'm sure to be the program host!"

"That depends on whether I have ti..."

Orochimaru picked up the scroll from the counter and turned to leave, walking very quickly, as if afraid of being kept by Nara Matsuka.

She didn't want to be dragged by Nara Matsuka into forced work again; one such experience was enough.

"Orochimaru, wait for !"

Tsunade quickly followed, wondering why Orochimaru was walking so fast. Nara Matsuka didn't seem like a difficult person to get along with.

Footsteps pattered as Nawaki ran around in the living room of Orochimaru's house, stopping at the kitchen door and asking loudly, "Orochimaru-nee-chan, is it ready yet?"

"Not yet, Nawaki, don't cause trouble."

Orochimaru's voice ca from the kitchen.

"Okay, I know!"

Nawaki nodded seriously and ran back to the living room.

In Uchiha Hikari's room, Uchiha Hikari held a book with the title "What is a Ninja" on its cover, sitting on the soft bed. Her room had many cute decorations, with all sorts of adorable stuffed animals visible everywhere.

Compared to her own room, she preferred Orochimaru's simple room.

So noisy... Uchiha Hikari opened her Sharingan and looked towards the living room, seeing a stranger she had never t before. She hesitated whether to go and see.

However, rather than going to see, she preferred to stay in her room.

That was that child's Sharingan just now, wasn't it?

Uzumaki Mito keenly sensed Uchiha Hikari's prying.

"Grandma, why are you and Nawaki here...?"

Tsunade looked at Nawaki, who had run back again. The last person she wanted to see right now was her dear younger brother.

"Nawaki wanted to co."

Uzumaki Mito said with a kind smile, looking at the expression on Tsunade's face. When she got even older, she wouldn't be able to co here; her ability to suppress the Nine-Tailed would weaken with age and physical decline.

Uzumaki Mito planned to have Hiruzen Sarutobi build a Spiral Tower next to the Hokage Building, and within the Spiral Tower, set up a Sealing Technique using the Uzumaki Clan crest as the sealing formula to enhance the sealing effect.
