Cap 146: Do you want to die?!
"I had no choice!" - exclaimed Jiraiya - "If I didn't find a solution, then they would have killed my wife because of their laws!"
"Ugh..." - Kurama only sighed with regret because he could get into Jiraiya's shoes - "How did that happen?"
"As I said, she discovered me when I went to see my wife, who by law cannot leave Nadeshiko" - sighed the Toad Sannin - "When she discovered us, she was furious but quickly calmed down so she offered me a deal... to settle all this"
Kurama gave him a look that told him to proceed with his story.
"If I could not fulfill my obligation, then my son had to do it... but as you know, I have no children" - continued Jiraiya - "That's why the responsibility passed to my student, the person who will inherit everything of mine... in other words, you"
"Don't you have any more students?" - asked Kurama as he frowned - "Not counting that I'm not your student"
"I taught you Kuchiyose no Jutsu" - Jiraiya snorted.
"Just that," the redheaded man replied with disdain.
"Ok, I'm not the best teacher for you but after you signed the Toad Contract, you became my protégé" - replied Jiraiya with annoyance - "Anyway, we're getting off track..."
Kurama again sighed with regret because with the words of the Sannin he discovered that he had been fucked up again with the small letters.
"What happened to your students?" - asked Kurama as he frowned.
"Dead..." - Jiraiya answered - "Three lads from Amegakure... they were good lads but they perished in the third war... Minato I am not sure of his fate because you never told me what you did with him but if I know you well enough, then he must be dead"
". . ." - Kurama was silent for a few seconds as he sighed with regret - "You know very well that Kushi-chan and the others will kill you when they hear about all this"
"As I said, I had no choice" - answered the Sannin - "And as long as you don't pull, nothing will happen..."
". . ." - Kurama was silent.
" She' s behind me... isn't she?" - sighed Jiraiya as he looked back, only to notice how Kushina was looking at him coldly "I am sorry, Kushina!"
"This time I'll forgive you..." - said Kushina coldly - "Because at least you had a meaningful reason to screw up..."
"Thank you!" - exclaimed the Sannin as he wept tears of happiness.
"But that doesn't change the fact that I am angry and will punish you..." - smiled the redheaded woman. "Only this time, I won't go to extremes."
". . ." - Jiraiya only sighed with regret. At least this time it wouldn't hurt so much.

"This is not the welcome I was looking for" - said Tsunade as she looked at Jiraiya, who was tied with a bondage turtle knot in the middle of the room. She had returned to Konoha after two weeks of relaxation and was now ready to heal Kimimaro - "May I ask why? No, it's better to ask what this idiot did"
Two days had passed and the Toad Sannin punishment was only to be hung in that uncomfortable position.
"He sacrificed Foxy-kun to save his wife's neck," Anko answered while eating a popsicle.
"He's married?!" - exclaimed Tsunade in surprise.
"Believe me, I reacted the same way," nodded the snake charmer. "Actually, we all did"
"Okay, this is impressive," Shizune nodded as she looked at her teacher's ex-companion.
"As much as I'm surprised, please don't change the subject," Tsunade said seriously. "'What happened?"
"You see, a few years ago, Jiraiya went to Nadeshiko Village," Mikoto replied calmly.
"Let me guess... he went to the Hot Springs and got caught, ended up fighting with a woman and won... but since he didn't want to get married, he ran away" - answered Tsunade - "How close am I to the truth?"
"You almost said it all" - answered Kurama while shrugging his shoulders - "It only remains to be said that this woman was the leader of Nadeshiko Village and that he ended up falling in love with one of the many huntresses who went after his ass to get him married"
"Didn't you think of the consequences when you did all that?" - Tsunade asked as she frowned.
"In my defense, I was only thinking with my crotch at the time," answered Jiraiya as he glanced at the big-boobed blonde. "I was going through a phase of getting over the fact that we wouldn't be lovers.
"The first, I feel that you still do it" - said Kushina with disdain.
"You should know that I haven't been unfaithful to my wife" - snorted Jiraiya - "She doesn't have a problem with my books or that I'm a pervert, as long as I don't exceed a certain limit, and I plan to stick to it"
"You don't have sex with strangers anymore? Then why do you go to brothels?" - Kushina asked in surprise. She never thought that Ero Gama would be someone of a firm conviction despite his perversion.
"To talk to the women who offer their services to get information for my book" - answered the Toad Sannin - "As an author, I have to keep my mind active and my creativity at its best"
"Wow... I never thought I'd hear this from you, Jiraiya" - said Tsunade as he nodded at his ex-partner's words - "I guess a woman can make a man change"
"I know... I wouldn't have thought it would end up like this either" - replied Jiraiya while sighing - "If I told myself about my current situation, I'm sure I would make fun of such stupidity"
"It feels strange that I'm the one who made the mistake of..." - mumbled the ginger.
"I did hear about it and honestly can't tell you anything," answered Jiraiya seriously. "I have made mistakes with my wife too, so it would be hypocritical of me to lecture you, but like you, I told her the truth and accepted the punishment that comes with it. One can make mistakes because we are all human, but we have to accept them and try to correct them to improve as a person"
"It feels strange that Jiraiya-sama is so mature," Kurenai said in surprise as the others nodded in agreement.
"Okay, that's rude but I get your point," sighed the white-haired Sannin, "Anyway, we'd better get back to our topic... my wife as Kurama said, is a kunoichi from Nadeshiko Village and as such she cannot leave her home... that is why every time I can, I go to that place to see her and spend time with her... but this time, the leader discovered us and threatened me that if I didn't find a solution to complete the tradition, she would have no choice but to kill my wife for spitting on the village law"
"After thinking about it for a while, we concluded that if I can't fulfill the law, my heir will have to" - continued Jiraiya while looking at his partner - "But there's a problem... I don't have a son... so the target changed my student... but as you know, my first three students are dead and Minato..."
"I understand" - Senju nodded.
"That only leaves Kurama and honestly it's not a bad idea because the daughter of the Nadeshiko Village Leader, is 12 years old" - added the white-haired man - "But seriously, I'm not going to lie to you... I feel bad for putting this new weight on the Gaki, but I don't regret my decision"
"As a wife, I am furious at your decision to sacrifice the father of my child" - said Kushina - "But as a woman, I respect that you did everything possible to keep your wife safe"
"Is there any way to solve this?" - Kurenai asked seriously.
"There is only one way, for Kurama to beat Miya's daughter and for the two of them to come to a mutual agreement," Jiraiya answered seriously. "Because if Kurama is defeated, then one of two things will happen, one, the girl will be able to claim him as her own and take him to Nadeshiko Village to be a drone, or two, death"
"Then there's no need for them to get married," said Kushina as she breathed a sigh of relief.
"As I said, they should come to a mutual agreement," nodded the white-haired Sannin.
"We'd better leave this for another time..." - said Kurama as he won everyone's attention - "And I think Jiraiya has suffered enough"
"Ok..." - Kushina nodded as she released the white-haired man.
"Thank you," Jiraiya nodded. The Uzumaki took it better than I thought - "By the way, welcome back, Tsunade"
"Thank you" - the woman with the big breasts nodded - "But let's leave the greetings for another time, now I want to see that boy Kimimaro's condition so I can decide how to proceed with his medical treatment"
"I will lead you to his room!" - Guren exclaimed almost immediately.
"Who's the new girl?" - asked Tsunade.
"Kimimaro's girlfriend" - answered Kushina.
"Oh... that explains the reaction" - nodded the blonde woman - "Ok, you can guide me"
"Her tits are much bigger than the reports say," whispered Tayuya as she looked at her chest with jealousy.
