Chapter 61:

Tsunade prepared a gift for me?

Akira heart moved slightly. Hearing Tsunade's words, he naturally looked forward to it. I wonder what is Tsunade's gift?

Even Jiraiya on the side was taken aback, looking at Tsunade and trying to see what she has prepared for Akira.

Tsunade smiled lightly and waved her hand suddenly, signalling Jiraiya to leave: "Jiraiya, I want to give Akira a gift, please give us privacy and go out temporarily."

Jiraiy was very upset and curled his lips: "What are you doing, being so mysterious!" Tsunade glared at Jiraiya, causing Jiraiya to shrink his neck subconsciously and hurriedly pulled Minato as they go away.

Akira laughed secretly when he saw this. It seems like Tsunade's prestige is so fearsome that Jiraiya is too afraid to make trouble in front of Tsunade. Thinking about it, Tsunade's terrifying strength is very scary that there should be no one that is not afraid right? Especially Jiraiya, who is probably the culprit to be bullied miserably by Tsunade. (Tsunade beating Jiraiya for peeking and being pervy)

Jiraiya and Minato left, leaving only Tsunade and Akira.

Tsunade blinked her eyes and smiled, "I didn't expect Sarutobi-sensei to also let you go to the battlefield so soon..." Only Akira and Tsunade were left. They were already familiar with each other, however Tsunade didn't give the gift immediately and she chat with Akira with a smile.

"Actually, I entered Anbu." Akira said as he briefly recounted his experience during this period.

Tsunade then understood and had a look of surprise in her beautiful eyes. It turned out that Akira had already experienced a lot of things during this period, no wonder his strength grew so quickly.

"You should be unmatched among Konoha's younger generation now. Even if we were to compare you with the geniuses of the five other major countries, you are still the best." Tsunade smiled joyfully with pride.

But Akira shook his head: "I am not satisfied with being the best in the younger generation."

Tsunade was startled and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

"No matter who I compare to, you are best in term of talent and strong mind. If my Nawaki is like you, our Senju Clan will surely be able to revive." Tsunade sighed again when she thought of her brother.

In fact, Nawaki is also quite talented, but he is certainly not as good compared to Akira.

Akira shrugged, trying to comfort Tsunade, but found that he couldn't find anything to comfort her, so he just kept silent.

"This time I have to thank you for the rescue, Chiyo prepared a trap there to ambush us and really thought we wouldn't make it and die. If you didn't show up, I'm afraid that even if Jiraiya also brought people to reinforce us, we still might not win against Chiyo." Tsunade said seriously.

Akira agree(in his mind) with Tsunade's words. Chiyo is already very strong, furthermore they have more than a hundred elite puppeteers and hundreds of other Suna ninjas there for the ambush. They will surely not be able to win if Jiraiya had rashly went to rescue Tsunade.

Akira smiled and did not answer.

"I promised to give you a gift and I won't break my promise." Tsunade chuckled, then suddenly stretched out her jade like hand close to her snow-white neck, untied the necklace that she had been wearing.

The beautiful necklace is emerald green in color with a green luster and giving out the aura of life.

Akira's heart moved, isn't this the first hokage necklace shown in the original story? Tsunade give this necklace to her younger brother Nawaki and Kato Dan. Later, the necklace was then given to Naruto's hands.

But now, Tsunade actually is giving me this necklace? Akira was slightly startled.

"This necklace seems to be very important to you? You really want to give this to me?" Akira said.

Tsunade smiled and said, "Well, this is the necklace that my grandfather gave me. I have always worn it with me and now I want to give it to you." Tsunade explained, while she untied the necklace and then took the initiative to help Akira put it on.

Akira felt a sense of peace in his heart, as if there is really a life energy enveloping him, making his mind calm when the necklace is worn.

Akira know that this necklace was left by the first hokage Hashirama Senju. Not to mention that this necklace itself is very valuable, its memorial significance to Tsunade is also extraordinary, so Akira was very surprised that Tsunade would use actually give him the necklace.

"Well, it look good on you." After Tsunade helped Akira put it on, she looked up and down and then smiled with satisfaction.

Akira smiled, feeling like his relationship with Tsunade is now closer.

There also seemed to be Tsunade's faint body warm on this necklace, as well as a hint of scent when it is worn.

"Thank you for saving me."Just when Akira thought that Tsunade was already finish with her gift, he suddenly see Tsunade's body approaching closer. Tsunade stood on her toes and lightly kissed on Akira's forehead. A touch of warmth lips can be felt printed on Akira's forehead, followed by a faint rose fragrance that can be smelled....

Akira was surprised.

However, Tsunade quickly withdrew her kiss. Before Akira had the time to recall, he saw the faint blush on Tsunade face as she smiled and said: "Don't think too much, this is also a reward for you."

Akira was speechless as he scream in his heart. How can we not think too much with your intimate action.

Seeing Akira's speechless expression, Tsunade smiled happily and was in a good mood.

"Akira, your current strength is close to that of the elite jonin and only need one more step to reach the peak of jonin, you have to work hard, the opportunity to sharpen on the battlefield is rare." Tsunade encouraged.

Akira nodded.

In Naruto World, jonin is a collective term as there are many jonins. However, there is a big difference in strength between jonins. For instance using Kakashi in the original story for example, the 12-year-old Kakashi is already a jonin, but he is completely different from the one who later mastered the power of kamui. In fact, according to the division of this world, the 12-year-old Kakashi is an ordinary jonin, the Kakashi at the begining of the original story is a elite jonin and the Kakashi who mastered the power of Kamui in the Shippuden series is a peak level jonin. It can also even be called a quasi-kage class powerhouse.

Akira current strength is in the level of elite jonin. Above this is the pinnacle of jonin, which is also know as peak level jonin

"If you have any problem with ninjutsu, you can come to me at any time." Tsunade reminded again.

"Ok." Akira nodded, but secretly smiled in his heart. With sage of the six path by his side, he is like carrying an encyclopedia of the Ninja world with him and he basically don't need to trouble Tsunade.

However, Tsunade's heartfelt gift made Akira feel warm.

"Your Sensei treat you very well eh. The necklace she gave you is also a good thing. It seems to have been left by the previous reincarnation of Ashura..." The sage voice sounded in Akira's heart.
