Chapter 65: Bachelor Pad
Chapter 65: Bachelor Pad
Kai slowly opened his eyes as he felt comfort coursing through his veins and excitement throbbing through another part of his body as a proud smile developed over his face. Oh, he didn't care about Kushina sleeping beside him or Nono sitting not far from the futon and staring at his pecker. Ever since he got his first erection... it was like a chain reaction every day. Of course, part of the reason was that despite his age, his physical growth was heightened a great deal, and... he had to be honest, he was sincerely gratified by this particular reaction of his body the most.
Sitting up and not even bothering to put a blanket over his pitcher as it would just wake Kushina up, Kai blinked and looked at Nono who still continued to stare at him eerily with her aqua-gree, pupils, her light brown hair cascading over her shoulder as she was in a rather casual top and leggings.
"Did... Sensei let you in? By the way, I totally planned to meet you guys but you're the one that was sleeping. Kushina just bounced up the moment I started shifting my stuff," Kai grinned and looked around the spacious but empty room that was part of a larger house. Well... Kai did demand a mansion without missing a beat but apparently, boy Legacy Guardians only get a large house, and ONLY men legacy guardian could demand a mansion... with only one mansion present in the whole compound, and that, too, belonging to the resident matriarch.
They had arrived yesterday and while they went on to report to Hokage, Tsunade sent a shadow clone to prepare the papers for his new property and as he said, Kai intended to move the very same night for he could sacrifice sleep for a few hours yet Kushina woke up rather unceremoniously, brought her butt to his new home without a question, and slept into the only room with a futon present.
What a based Uzumaki. But clearly, Tsunade did not consider Kai a responsible Guardian as Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato were shifted to her mansion.
Oh, he revolted...
Not for the kids, of course. Why the heck do they get to live in the Bombsh ehm, Sensei's mansion and not him?
"I believe you," Nono hummed with a smile as she looked around, "And welcome back. I noticed you grew up in war this time, too."
She pointedly looked at his boner again. Nono wasn't even awkward about it. The world happened to be a sick place but despite her age, she thrived in it. Heck, Kai even wondered if Tsunade didn't take Nono away from the force, she may still be crushing the bandit's balls by luring them away.
"Heh, I know, right?" Kai stretched his arms and then looked at Nono, "So, I had this thought in my mind the moment Sensei offered me this house. Want to move in with me and Kushina? We could really use a hand in setting furniture and well... someone to pick up Kushina's weight around."
Nono blinked and then stood up, "Do I get my own room?"
"Definitely, with a bathroom attached."
"I'm in," Nono smiled and adjusted her glasses, "So? What about breakfast? Do you wish to accompany me to the compound market and get some groceries?"
"Uh..." Kai looked down. It wasn't going down anytime soon and despite his excitement, he wasn't eager to rub one out. At least, he'd wait and pull through 10 or 11 before jerking the forbidden milk. But the understanding bro she always has been, Nono scoffed a giggle and questioned, "I'll make the run for groceries today and also pack my stuff. Hmm, do you have a spare storage scroll?"
"Sure and thanks a lot~!" Kai grinned, retrieving a storage scroll from WITHIN a storage scroll and handing it to Nono who questioned again, "Want me to put you into Last Harlot?" It was her signature genjutsu, after all, and Kai seriously considered the proposition before grinning and shaking his head, "Nope! A Genjutsu isn't enough after your previous good luck charm."
She rolled her eyes this time and smirked, "That was only for the time when you are deployed for war. Besides, Tsunade-sama would punish the hell out of me if I became a cause of distraction for her star student."
"As if she herself isn't distracting enough," Kai scoffed and rolled his eyes. Kushina and Mikoto are traitorous and would have filled Tsunade's ears with what he had said in a second but Nono, ever so cool and worthy of being a bro added with a pout, "Exactly! Believe me... I take a bath with her sometimes and they are impossibly perky despite their size!"
"You... bathe together?" Kai gulped. This was good material that even Jiraiya would pay a fortune for.
"Hmm~?" Raising her brow knowingly, Nono smirked, "Now if you were my Legacy Guardian, I would have shown you everything with a genjutsu~ ah, too bad, I'm a mere Secretary and you were so quick to curry favor with Tsunade-sama."
Kai deadpanned and groaned, "Just... bring some sweetened bread for me. Ame was a shithole..."
"Will do."
Nono left with a victorious smile.

Kai's new home wasn't as big as the Uzumaki Mansion but he had more personal space here. The backyard was just as big as he needed with Cinnamon making a home underneath one of the trees. There was no small pond but that was easy to carve out with earth and water release ninjutsu and that's what he planned to do alongside Kushina who had mastered Water Nature Transformation to some extent... only to be called away by Tsunade.
It was still early in the morning, about 9, but every resident shinobi of Senju wished to meet with Tsunade to present their daily reports.
Nono led Kai to Tsunade's mansion, better known as Senju Complex, which was only a minute away at the pace of casual walking. It wouldn't do for her Legacy Guardian to live too far from her, after all. But the moment he entered, Kai was confronted with a situation of an aggravated Nawaki who was still in a shouting match with Tsunade.
"But I want to be in the meeting! If I am to become Hokage, as you said, I need to learn more than just Ninjutsu! Come on, Onee-san!"
Kai and Nono peeked into the nearest living room where Tsunade still sat on the couch while holding her head, grumbling, "I would be a fool to let you into the meetings without even becoming a Chunin. I really want you there, and even lead the clan, but you're not ready. If you were, you would have eaten your bowl of cereal obediently!"
Nawaki frowned as he glared at the remaining three children chowing down through their bowl of cereals with amazed expressions as if they had found gold!
"Come in," Tsunade looked towards the entrance of the room, her words making Nawaki look towards the door, too, and his mood soured further.
"Hey guys, did Sensei treat you well?" Kai waved at Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan, who still had an odd cereal stuck to their cheeks as they nodded quickly.
Smiling in return, Tsunade remarked, "Nagato is old enough to start attending the Academy but I will have the three tutored together within the compound, too. You know, the basics."
"Of course," Kai nodded and looked at Yahiko, "And what fresh hell climbed up your ass this pleasant morning?"
Tsunade shook her head while Nawaki scoffed, his loss in Taijutsu against Kai still fresh.
"I want to be part of clan meetings!" He repeated himself.
"Oh, yeah, I don't case," Kai snickered and sat down on the couch alongside Nono, "So, you two can continue while I have my second breakfast. Want some?" He looked at Nono who shook her head, "No, I am full from the treat at your new home. Ah, Tsunade-sama, we were also planning to invite a few of our friends this evening so please do join us."
Nono had already moved out. Really, she didn't have any notable items in the mansion, too.
"A party?!" Yahiko exclaimed.
"Not for you," Kai smiled, "You three will be consuming something even better. Knowledge."
The trio deflated promptly.
"Anyway, Nawaki, you'll have your entire life tackling clan meetings," Tsunade looked at her younger brother with a scowl.
The boy looked sincerely agitated, "But..."
"No buts," Tsunade pursed her lips, "Besides, Orochimaru will be back in a few days so you will have plenty of missions to do with him!"
This piece of news finally calmed down the excited boy with pent-up energy. Kai would have suggested meat beating but... Tsunade was present and she would have beaten him whole.
Of course... Kai took the chance to observe Tsunade's outfit since she had changed herself... significantly. Instead of using her technique to look in her twenties again, Tsunade had her blonde hair tied into two low pigtails with her locks parting from the center.
Yet, unlike her usual outfit, Tsunade didn't wear a bluish top with a mesh shirt underneath. Instead, a grey, sleeveless Kimono-tunic covered her torso with the front fold of the two sides of her kimono intersecting a bit deep and thus, revealing quite the sight to his healthy mind. A navy blue waistband was tied over her abdomen like a corset, making her cleavage and voluptuous breasts even more prominent while her pants, the same color as the waistband, reached her ankles. Meanwhile, her usual green gem-like pendant continued to hang around her neck.
"Hmph... I'll grow in no time, you'll see!" Nawaki stomped and left. Kai really had no opinion about the boy except he had a sturdy body. After all, Kai had killed many with similar disposition as Nawaki in the war and their skills barely came to fruition cause Kai never really gave them a chance to utilize the full extent of their skills.
"So... why wouldn't you let the future Hokage enter the clan meeting, Sensei?" Kai smirked as Konan chimed, "What's a Hokage?"
"You'll get to learn all that later," Tsunade rubbed the bluenette's head and huffed, "We were deployed in Land of Rain for a month and got our ass handed to us by Hanzo."
"Not us... just Team Hiruzen," Kai rebuked mutedly, making Tsunade a bit gloomier, "And for that very reason, I don't want Nawaki anywhere near clan meetings. I don't want him to say something stupid. There... is a bit of problem. The retired shinobi are feeling a little restless. It's natural. After decades of services, they just cannot relax. They want something to do meaningful to feel as if they are still contributing to the village and the clan through their actions so..."
Her words trailed as she looked toward Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan.
Nono and Kai blinked before they both smirked and Nono nodded, "I see... Tsunade-sama, would you like me to prepare them a little before the clan meeting?"
"Nah," Tsunade waved her hand, "I also have to introduce your new position so be sure to stay in the correct position." She looked at Kai.
"Under you?" Kai grinned, dodging the cup that crashed into the wall behind him as Nagato and others gulped.
"No more stupid jokes," Tsunade glowered while Nono shook her head, "Silly Kai-chan. Your correct position is behind Tsunade-same"
Both of them jumped back this time as Tsunade pounced at the utterly impossible duo!
---
The Senju Clan Meetings included Tsunade herself, Nono, and a good chunk of top Senju jonins. In fact, the total number of chunins and jonins just from the Senju Clan formed upto 10 of the entire Konoha force including Anbu members that Tsunade knew of. And while Tsunade's decision to appoint Kai as the Legacy Guardian came as a surprise, there wasn't any open rebuttal. In fact, many knew Kai even before this point not just as Tsunade's apprentice but as a war comrade no less.
What came after that wasn't grind, but actual work. Tsunade had her own duties and she finally had Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan enter an apprenticeship with three different retired jonins of the clan. How this would turn out was yet to be seen but Tsunade wasn't about to waste three war orphans who clearly desired strength and were different from other children who hadn't experienced war. Things will never be the same for the three of them thus Tsunade wasn't naive enough to think that Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan will play around like other children.
Sure, lasting peace may make the trio more gratified later but right now, they needed assurance which came with personal strength. Of course, their training began from basic education itself.
But for Kai and others, after meeting up with Mikoto who was appalled at the thought of Nono moving into the home and an active Tsume more than eager to build a 'kennel' for herself, Kai pulled everyone to help him set up his new house.
They began from the top floor of the two stories house with a traditional wooden build with mats and sliding wooden and paper partitions within. With Nono claiming one of the three rooms on the floor, they started from there. A wind release gust with an open window dry cleaned the room and they started moving the newly purchased furniture at a discounted price.
Nobody in the clan would chalk him up with the full price now that he was the legacy guardian.
Nono's choices were simple as she claimed she would like to slowly decorate her room in her own manner later on. The remaining two guestrooms were efficiently cleaned off, too, like the rest of the house. The kitchen was still barely equipped... but this was one location where seals could be worked in so Kai wanted Kushina's barely advanced knowledge for this. Truly... even with months of a headstart, Kushina barely had any concrete gains from everything Mito left her.
It was a good thing that Kai would be busy for a foreseeable future with Legacy skills and support skills.
Finally, it was time to make the perfect ground for Cinnamon and copy the same kind of pond as the one in Uzumaki Compound... but the seals he discreetly added to the pond would make the water bubble and turn the temperature of the pond based on his desire made it clear that this wasn't fit for aquatic lifeforms.
And by dusk, the free labor Kai made use of was granted food... as a housewarming of sorts.
Still, his bachelor pad was somewhat equipped and already had a happy bro and a redheaded hoe. Things were looking up for Kai.
