Naruto: World of Warcraft - chapter 61

The Council of Konoha didn't believe me when I told them that Madara was alive. And I couldn't really blame them, the idea that this man was alive was too far-fetched, fortunately, Hiruzen and Danzo believed me.

But even so, I doubted that they would be of much help to me, Hiruzen was already getting old, and Danzo had never been very powerful to begin with. So in the end, whether they believed me or not, I was the one that was going to have to fight Madara, and Isshiki.

Although, maybe... I didn't have to kill one of them alone. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and if the psychological profile of over forty pages that Tobirama-sensei wrote about Madara was accurate, that man was not not someone that liked anyone standing above him.

Meaning that if I played my cards right… There was a chance I would be able to form a temporary alliance to deal with Isshiki, which I still firmly believed was stronger than Madara, meaning killing him was a priority.

For now though, I would focus on something else, something less grim and lethal, like the fact I am to be a father.

“Let’s go and buy some baby clothes!” Sakumo exclaimed, dragging across the Konoha market with a wild grin. It was fun to see him so excited, so happy about it.

“I think I already bought enough…” I laughed, remembering last week, where Tsunade bought an entire store full of baby related items.

“There is no such thing as enough!” Sakumo declared, slamming his right hand to his chest to accentuate the point.

“Fine…” I chuckled.

“Why am I here again?” Oh yeah, Orochimaru was with us.

“No idea.” I replied.

“Cause you fear the might of Tsunade’s wrath?” Oh yeah, Jiraiya was also with us.

Orochimaru rolled his eyes, “I don’t fear her.”

“Oh, well I’ll be sure to tell her that.” Jiraiya smirked.

“....” Orochimaru sighed, “You never cease to amaze me, to know your stupidity has no bounds truly vexes me…”

At this I laughed, while Jiraiya growled at the insult, “Hey!!”

“You should know I have far more blackmailing material on you… than you have on me,” Was… was Orochimaru actually… wow. “Like videos of you using the transformation jutsu to enter the female baths…”

“I… say what now?” Jiraiya chuckled, sweating his own weight in fear.

“One word to Tsunade and I will give those videos to every kunoichi in the leaf, kukukukuku,” Orochimaru smiled.

“Me telling Tsunade?! Never!” Jiraiya exclaimed as Orochimaru smirked at him.

With a chuckle, I looked at Orochimaru and grinned, “So… you do fear my wife..”

“You turned her into a speeding monster that can one punch almost every one… what do you think?” Orochimaru sighed, “Though, fear is not the word I would use, more like I would not fight her… I know how to pick my battles, and that would be a losing one.”

“He is right… I don’t think anyone in the village besides you and the Hokage are strong enough enough to defeat her.” Sakumo added.

“I can only imagine the monster of a child you two will have…” Jiraiya shuddered.

“Don’t call my nephew a monster!” Sakumo glared at him, “While very very very accurate it’s insulting!”

“Thanks?” I snorted at his sad way of defending my child.

“Happy to help,” Sakumo smiled, oblivious to real reaction.

“Genetics doesn’t work that way… if power was so easily inherited the village would be filled by Madara’s, and Hashirama’s running around, but alas is not…. So while there is a chance this child will surpass his parents, the chance is minimal at best…” Orochimaru added.

“Does logic and scientific facts ever apply to Raiden though?” Jiraiya chuckled.

At this Orochimaru stopped dead in his tracks, and chuckled, “This is something I never thought I would say to you Jiraiya, but… you’re right…” turning to me, he smiled, “Your child will be a monster, congrats.”

“What happened to genetics not working that way?” I chuckled.

“You can resurrect yourself…. you apparently fuck logic and science... like the young people say, so why start using logic with you now...” Orochimaru shrugged.

“Fair enough.” I smiled.

[Tsunade POV]

I loved my life, I loved my husband, and now, I loved my child, life was perfect for me. I loved the look full of wonder in Raiden’s eyes when he looked at my belly that was yet to show any signs of pregnancy. I loved how he was scared of being a father, yet excited. I loved it all.

“We need to decorate the room where the baby will sleep in…” Biwako declared. “I know a store that sells the best cribs and baby items in all of the fire country.”

“Is that within my budget?” I asked with a chuckle.

“Your husband will pay,” Biwako grinned.

“I suppose that extends the budget quite a bit… considering he is by all means rich.” I laughed.

“And by proxy, you also are…” Biwako sighed, “If I were you I would grab that kid by the balls, and force him to give me his bank details.”

“I would… but he has a good point, I tend to spend a lot of money on things that I don’t need, so he gives me an allowance instead…” I chuckled.

“Oh yeah, your gambling thing…. I don’t blame the kid now.” Biwako sighed.

“I… I have a problem,” I admitted, but thanks to my good eye in men, I picked the one man that doesn’t care as long as I didn’t use his money to gamble, but yeah… I had to work on that, can’t have my kid learning how to waste money like a moron.

“Fix it, unless you want your kid wasting his money like you.” Biwako sighed.

“I know, I know… that is the reason why Raiden is the one that manages the Senju estate,” I smiled, “Besides, I already have a month without doing anything of the sorts.”

“Since you found out about the baby, huh?” Biwako smiled, “Good, those little bundles of pain and joy change you…”

“I suppose they do.” I smiled, rubbing my belly.
