Traveling through Nagato, from conquering Konan to dominating the ninja world

The year-round rain makes open-air hot springs a luxury in the Hidden Rain Village.

The bathhouse built in a closed room has naturally become the first choice for leisure and relaxation.

After enjoying the local specialty meat buns with Orochimaru and Kabuto, they came to the southern area of ​​Yuyin, an inn with a large bathhouse.

"Excuse me." Nagato greeted politely as he walked in.

The proprietress of the hotel is a very charming woman.

She was wearing a plain kimono with a waist hanging (a small pillow), her hair tied up in a high bun. She was kneeling on the tatami at the entrance, holding the slender pipe between two fingers and holding it in her mouth. She looked at the three people who walked into the hotel, and her eyes wrinkled slightly.

He asked tentatively, "Gentlemen, you are all new to me. Do you have any acquaintances who can introduce me to you?"

"no."

"If you don't have it, it's not easy. We only accept regular customers." The proprietress exhaled a puff of smoke and ordered them to leave. "Why don't you go somewhere else?"

"They are foreign guests invited by Lord Payne." At this time, Xiaonan walked in accompanied by Perrin!

"Angel!" Seeing her, the proprietress's cold attitude instantly changed 180 degrees!

She stood up and said flatteredly, "Really? These three are distinguished guests invited by the gods!!!"

"Yes." Xiaonan nodded with a smile, pointed at Perrin, and said, "As for this one, she is my personal maid, her name is Lily Bell~!"

"Hi~! Please give me your advice!" Perrin raised her little hand and greeted the proprietress playfully!

"Ah! I am so envious of having the honor of serving the angel!" The lady boss sighed, touching her bulging belly under her kimono, and said in a complicated way: "I wish my child would have this blessing when he grows up..."

The proprietress's husband, Tie, was a Genin from the Hidden Rain Village during Hanzo's rule. He died in the line of duty and left behind a posthumous child.

Xiaonan lowered his eyes and asked, "Have you thought of a name for the child?"

"Yeah." The proprietress stroked her belly gently, her eyes filled with the tenderness of maternal love.

"A Tie said that if it's a boy, we'll name him 'Forget Me Not', and if it's a girl, we'll name her 'Hydrangea'. We all hope that when the child grows up, he can grow up in a peaceful village without worries."

"Huh?" Perrin looked surprised when she heard the name.

She walked forward, bent over, pinched the chin of the cat-faced mask, looked closely at the boss lady's belly, and said, "It should be hydrangea."

The proprietress was surprised and asked, "Huh? How did you know that?"

"Hehe, this is not important." Perrin stretched out her little hand, gently touched the belly of the proprietress, and said softly: "Lord God will bless little Hydrangea, because peace is also Lord God's wish~!"

The proprietress held her slightly red cheeks in her hands and said flatteredly, "Oh my, that's really a blessing from you."

"Then let's go upstairs." Nagato led Orochimaru and Kabuto up the stairs.

At this time, the proprietress whispered, "Angel, do you need me to make special arrangements for a few masters..."

Xiaonan said: "This is not necessary."

The lady boss said, "Okay, okay, please enjoy your meal. We don't have any other customers today!"

"This is the fee for booking the entire place." Xiaonan took out a bunch of money from the Toad Wallet, a full 100,000 taels!

The lady boss's face suddenly changed: "How can this be possible! It is my honor that you choose our shop as a place to entertain foreign guests. How can I take your money? Please take it back!"

Xiaonan closed the proprietress's palm and said, "Take it. We will need it in the future and will come back again."

With that, she went upstairs with Perrin.

Looking at her back, the proprietress held the handkerchief with the mascot amulet sewn on it to her chest, tears welling up in her eyes as she said, "Ah, what a gentle and loving angel! I wonder how great and respectable that Lord Payne will be!"

She put up the 'Closed' sign.

"Ah, I've become so used to hot springs that I've overlooked the beauty of the large bathhouse!"

In the men's bath, Nagato embraced the bathtub, and the water, as tall as his body, poured onto the ground. In the rising hot steam, he finally had a frank face-to-face meeting with Orochimaru and Kabuto.

Orochimaru leaned against the edge of the bathtub, his long wet hair and his vertical eyes showed a sense of contentment that was rarely seen in normal times.

"It would be even better if we had a glass of soju at a time like this, what do you think, Kabuto~!"

Dou was standing not far away. After wiping off the moisture on the lenses of his glasses, he put them on his nose in a proper manner. "Your Excellency is right, but... I am not old enough to drink yet."

Nagato joked, "Kabuto, you are a traitor now, are you still abiding by these ninja rules?"

Facing Nagato, Kabuto still couldn't hide his reservedness: "Well, I..."

Orochimaru stroked the water and gently stroked his collarbone, smiling: "Nagato-kun, don't look at Kabuto like this, he is a very self-disciplined ninja. Even when he was a spy, he never violated the three prohibitions of ninja."

"I really admire this about him."

"Lord Orochimaru, you are too kind. How can I be as good as you say..." Kabuto was actually a little embarrassed by Orochimaru's praise.

Nagato seemed to be thinking about something.

Dou respects me, but he still can't let me go. Now is the opportunity.

He said, "Dou, let me rub your back."

"Eh?" Dou was startled. "Rubbing my back? How can this be possible?"

"It's okay, it's okay"

As he spoke, Nagato had already picked up the soap and the washcloth and stood up from the bathtub. He pointed to the small bench beside the bathtub and said, "Go sit over there!"

"Eh!? Eh!?" Kabuto reacted violently: "No! Absolutely not! How disrespectful! Lord Nagato, how can you stoop to rub my back!"

At this time, Orochimaru smiled and said, "Nagato-kun, it is indeed inappropriate for you to rub Kabuto's back yourself. If you want to get closer to Kabuto, you can let him rub your back for you."

Dou blushed and said, "Yes! Yes! That's all right!"

Nagato scratched his head and said, "Okay, then Orochimaru, let me rub your back."

Orochimaru smiled and said, "Well, I'll be sorry to refuse. However, it seems that no one cares about Kabuto's back. I have a suggestion. Nagato-kun, what do you think..."

"What a great idea!"

Nagato smiled and made hand seals.

——Psychic art!

Bang! !

In the smoke... Pei Ai lands in the bathhouse!!

"My lovely Doudou, I'll take care of your back!!!"

"Ugh!!" Kabuto was petrified instantly.

So... there were four small stools lined up in the men's bath.

From the beginning to the end, they are Orochimaru, Nagato, Kabuto Yakushi (feeling like a thorn in the back), and Pai...

Meanwhile, in the women's bath...
