Naruto: Destroy the Sarutobi Clan At the Beginning

Tsunade let out a long sigh and said sternly, "Let me make one thing clear—you are not allowed to do anything reckless tonight. Also, in the double suite at the hotel, each bed can only sleep two people. This means that tonight, you will sleep with Chinatsu, and I will sleep alone."

"Of course, of course," Kirito agreed readily. His calm demeanor reassured Tsunade, but in reality, he was biding his time. With the little girl asleep, he had plenty of opportunities.

Meanwhile, across the village, Kakashi was preparing dinner and unexpectedly hosting three visitors: Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura.

"Fujiwara Kirito? Why are you asking about him?" Kakashi added three extra sets of bowls and chopsticks while glancing at his guests with mild surprise.

Tonight's dinner included salt-grilled saury with rice and miso-glazed eggplant.

"It's nothing—I'm just curious," Sakura said nervously, sneaking a glance at Sasuke. After her earlier mistake of praising Uchiha Itachi and earning Sasuke's ire, she didn't dare voice her opinions openly.

Naruto, however, was too focused on his meal to care. For him, dishes like these were a rare treat, and he devoured them with enthusiasm. Sasuke ignored both Naruto's food obsession and Sakura's feigned innocence, instead cutting straight to the point.

"Sensai Kurenai mentioned you were involved in Kirito's Jonin exam, and you were also my brother Itachi's captain in the Anbu," Sasuke began. "I want to know how strong they are and how far I have to go to surpass them."

Kakashi leaned back slightly, his usual laid-back expression unchanged. "Ah, I see. So that's why you're asking. Well, I can tell you this: both of them are probably stronger than I am."

"What?!" Sakura exclaimed, almost dropping her chopsticks. "How is that possible? You're the Copy Ninja Kakashi, famous across the ninja world! Even Zabuza couldn't defeat you!"

Kakashi sighed. "Remember what I told you in the Land of Waves? There are many people in this world, younger than you, who are stronger than me. Kirito and Itachi are two of them."

He paused for emphasis before continuing, "And that was four or five years ago, when they first defected. Who knows how much stronger they've become since then?"

Sasuke's expression darkened. "Are you saying they're out of my reach?"

Kakashi gave him a hard look. "I'm saying they're dangerous. During our mission in the Land of Waves, do you remember the boy, Haku, who I struck with my Raikiri? He should have died, but then all of you fell unconscious."

Sasuke's eyes widened. "That was…?"

"Yes," Kakashi confirmed. "It was an illusion. The Haku I struck was nothing but a shadow clone created by Kirito under a genjutsu. He saved Haku and eliminated Gato's entire gang in an instant using only his shadow clone."

Naruto abruptly stopped eating. He lowered his head, shadows obscuring his eyes, before speaking in a soft but determined voice. "So, Haku was saved by Kirito-Nissan?"

"That's correct," Kakashi replied solemnly. "I'm telling you this not to discourage you, but to warn you. If you ever encounter either of them, do not engage. Run as far away as you can. Otherwise, you will die."

Naruto slammed his fist on the table, his eyes blazing with conviction. "No way! I believe Kirito-Nissan is a good person. And one day, I'll bring him back to the village!"

Kakashi groaned inwardly, realizing his warning had fallen on deaf ears. Meanwhile, Sasuke clenched his fists under the table, his pride deeply wounded. Even Kirito surpassed Kakashi at my age. What have I been doing all these years?

On the other side of the village, Kirito had already settled into the suite with Tsunade and Chinatsu. Tsunade had claimed one bed, while Kirito shared the other with Chinatsu.

It was a peaceful early summer night. The chirping of insects outside the window was accompanied by the faint croaking of frogs in the distant rice fields. In the room, all seemed quiet and still.

Tsunade lay on her side, her back to Kirito. Her flushed cheeks betrayed her restlessness. She was nervous yet expectant, her mind racing with thoughts about the night ahead. But as the hours ticked by, Kirito remained silent and still, leaving Tsunade both relieved and frustrated.

Damn it, she thought groggily. Has he really turned over a new leaf?

Meanwhile, Kirito had already coaxed Chinatsu into a deep sleep. He stayed still, not out of restraint, but because of a notification from his system earlier.

[System Notification]

Congratulations, host. You have triggered a system option.

For three consecutive days, punish her in front of Chinatsu. Reward: Senzu Beans ×10.

For three consecutive days, Shizune is outside the door, and Chinatsu is inside the door. Reward: Senzu Beans ×20.

Do nothing and prove you're worse than an animal. Reward: Viagra ×999999.

Kirito smirked. His shadow clone, stationed near Shizune's room, had already knocked softly on her door, ensuring she wouldn't interrupt.

He carefully set up a soundproof chakra barrier around Chinatsu to block any noise. Then, moving silently, he approached Tsunade's bed.

"Who's there?" Tsunade's instincts kicked in as she sensed someone approaching.

Before she could react further, Kirito was already on the bed, gently covering her mouth. "Shh, it's me," he whispered.

Tsunade glanced at Chinatsu, who remained sound asleep, and nodded cautiously. Once Kirito removed his hand, she hissed, "Don't try anything. Chinatsu is still here."

"Relax," Kirito said with a mischievous grin. "I've set up a barrier. She can't hear anything we do."

Without waiting for her response, he leaned in, capturing her lips in a bold kiss.
