Naruto: Systematic Shinobi Chapter 307 307: A Day In The Life Of A Hokage - 17

Fancy getting a sneak peek at my stories? You can find the advanced chapters over on my Subscribestar, under the same username - 0Jordinio0.

My apologies for not posting yesterday. However, due to some overly sensitive individuals complaining about the status pages I posted after updates, I decided, out of spite, to take a day off from posting.

A shuddering groan escaped Daiki as her hands tightened on her hips for a brief moment, pressing against her again. This caused her back to arch and a gasp escaped her lips.

Then, he released her hips and took a step back. "You have no idea how much I desire to, but I simply can't," Daiki puffed. She glanced over her shoulder at him, her legs feeling as weak as jelly and trembling uncontrollably. Running a hand through his hair, but his eyes remained fixed on her rear. "I still need to heal Lee, remember?"

'Tch! Just dispatch one of those ridiculously powerful clones to tend to Lee's wounds instead and then ravish my luscious posterior like a tribal drum!'

For the first time ever, she found herself in complete accord with her inner voice. "Can't you just dispatch a clone to heal Lee?" Sakura inquired, biting her lip. She grinned at him, wiggling her hips provocatively. The sight of his hands twitching, as if yearning to grasp her once more, made her suppress a moan of pure delight. "Then we could find a secluded spot. Perhaps you could escort me to that magnificent, sky-high fortress of yours? No one could possibly disturb us there~"

She genuinely had no clue where this sudden surge of confidence originated. Nevertheless, she resolved to ride this wave of boldness all the way to its conclusion.

Daiki's nostrils flared, and for a fleeting instant, she perceived his eyes flash with an intricate, inky black pattern. However, it vanished as quickly as she could blink.

Daiki then retreated another step, lifting and waving his hands dismissively. "There are certain duties a clone simply cannot fulfill," he stated. "How do you imagine Lee would feel if he discovered I didn't even bother to see him in person for a spinal operation – an operation that would prove fatal to anyone without the combined assistance of Tsunade and myself?"

Sakura let out a groan, slumping against the wall in utter defeat. She had to concede that, were she in his position, she would feel profoundly slighted. His reasoning was, annoyingly, impeccable. Why did he have to be so infuriatingly reasonable?

'Tch! Stop being such a dutiful and responsible, caring Hokage, and just make love to us!' her inner self grumbled.

She turned around and slid down the wall until she was seated on the floor, letting out a deep, defeated sigh. "Alright, I comprehend," Sakura acknowledged, offering him a smile that was half-grin, half-grimace. "Another time, perhaps?"

Daiki expelled what appeared to be a sigh of relief, his shoulders dropping slightly. He then shook his head. "Definitely," he affirmed. He walked over, crouched down, placed a hand on her head, and met her gaze directly. "After all, I am eager to witness your bare posterior undulating." He delivered this with a joking tone.

"Oh, you certainly will," Sakura retorted with a snort, a happy smile spreading across her face as he leaned forward and planted a quick kiss on her lips.

"Now, I must depart immediately. Should I linger any longer, you will undoubtedly succeed in tempting me," Daiki declared, shaking his head and standing upright once more.

She rolled her eyes. "Don't tempt me yourself," she shot back, before waving her hand dismissively. "Proceed, Hokage-sama. However, do not keep me waiting for too long."

"Rest assured, I shall not," Daiki assured her. He scanned her from head to toe, pausing momentarily.

Then, he turned and departed. A muffled chuckle escaped her as she observed his brisk, power-walking pace – a hasty retreat that stopped just short of an outright run.

If nothing else, it was indeed gratifying to ascertain the significant impact she exerted upon him.

She sighed, tilting her head back against the wall and gazing at the ceiling for a few lingering moments.

Inhaling and exhaling deeply, she consciously calmed her racing thoughts. As her composure returned, the weariness that had previously been suppressed by her potent lust began to reassert itself.

'My bed beckons,' Sakura decided. While she would have much preferred Daiki's bed to be her destination, her own would suffice for the time being.

As she prepared to rise, her gaze fell upon the green flak vest lying on the ground beside her. She picked it up, her other hand grasping the scroll resting atop it.

She folded the flak jacket over her arm, then proceeded to unroll the scroll, examining its contents. It was, she realized, a sealing scroll.

Placing her palm upon it, she initiated the unsealing process. Two additional scrolls materialized. One was exceptionally small. The other was colossal, extending beyond her arm's length and boasting a thickness comparable to her torso.

… There was undoubtedly a jest embedded within this curious situation, a joke Daiki would undoubtedly find amusing.

Her lips curved into an amused grin as Sakura unfurled the smaller scroll. Her smile widened considerably upon discovering it contained the official documentation recognizing her promotion to Chunin, along with all the accompanying privileges.

Rolling it back up, she then retrieved the considerably larger scroll and began to unroll it, her curiosity piqued about its contents.

Her eyebrows shot upwards in surprise as she immediately identified its purpose: training focused on water-elemental chakra affinity. Alongside this detailed curriculum…

Her jaw hit the floor as she took in the instructions for no less than five Water Style ninjutsu.

The C-rank Water Clone Ninjutsu.

The C-rank Water Style: Water Shuriken Ninjutsu.

The B-rank Water Style: Water Blade Ninjutsu.

The B-rank Water Style: Exploding Water Shockwave Ninjutsu.

And—

Her eyes widened significantly. "Water Style: Water Dragon Ninjutsu!?" Sakura gasped, the sheer disbelief evident on her face. This was the very same formidable ninjutsu she had witnessed Zabuza and Kakashi-sensei unleash back in the Land of Waves!

Unbelievable.

This scroll was an absolute treasure trove, filled with ninjutsu training manuals worth an unimaginable fortune! And Daiki had simply handed them over to her.

…Just as he had gifted her his own unique ninjutsu. And inexplicably, even one of the legendary Senju Tsunade's most potent abilities.

The scroll continued, revealing a wealth of personal annotations penned by Daiki himself. As her gaze reached the conclusion, she detected the presence of yet another storage seal?

What is this?

With her hand pressed against it, she channeled her chakra into the seal. Her eyes nearly bulged from their sockets as a brilliant, sapphire-blue battle axe materialized in a swirl of smoke.

It was massive, and she instinctively shifted it onto her shoulder to prevent it from crashing to the ground. For a moment, Sakura could only stare at the colossal weapon in stunned silence.

"Could this be a chakra blade?!" she found herself exclaiming once more, her jaw hanging slack.

…But why such an enormous battle axe?
