Naruto: Rise To The Top
48-Reunion with Tsunade and the girls.

Ryuu goes to the Hokage building and when he arrives he sees Tsunade and the girls coming out of the building.

"Did you see how that idiot tried to take me to sell me, he didn't expect that I was strong and I surprised him with my strength until he shed a tear." Sayuri stood on Tsunade's shoulder as she spoke excitedly.

"Can you stop talking about this, you've mentioned it a thousand times" Kushina said annoyedly.

"He didn't cry out of surprise at your strength, but he was crying because you hit him on his ball" Mikoto said, explaining the real reason the man was crying.

After Mikoto said this, Kushina realized that someone was walking towards them, when she found out it was Ryuu she was happy and smiled and then ran towards Ryuu and hugged him tightly and said, "I miss you so much. Why are you so late? back to Konoha?"

Mikoto also hugged Ryuu, Tsunade stepped forward and patted Ryuu on the back and said, "It's good that you came quickly, everyone misses you and waits for your return. Actually, I didn't expect you to be back this fast because you're trying to learn Sage Mode."

At first, Tsunade did not know what a Clairvoyant Mode was, but she asked Katsuyu about this technique, instead, and Katsuyu tells him that this technique is difficult to learn and may take years to learn or several months for talented people, and Sayuri justifies that, but he was so arrogant that he said that he learned Clerk Mode in one day, Tsunade did not believe him. So I hope Ryuu comes back after a few months.

"I learned Sage Mode in one day but I stayed there to learn more techniques and create useful techniques, if you learn Sage Mode, I'll teach you those techniques." Ryuu wanted to teach them the Art of Sage: complete body cultivation, as it would increase the age and vitality of their bodies.

Tsunade, Kushina, and Mikoto were shocked when they heard that Ryuu had completed his Sage Mode in one day, then at the same time they looked towards Sayuri and thought 'Did he tell the truth before'

"I already know Sage Mod, teach me this technique." Sayuri jumped onto Ryuu's shoulder and sat on it and patted him on the cheek with her palm, she was curious and excited to learn the technique.

"OK I'll teach you later" Ryuu said with a smile and tried to pat Sayuri on the head but she avoided his hand and moved onto her other shoulder, making Ryuu sigh, but she avoided him, then he had an idea and said to Sayuri, "If you want.I'm to teach you this technique, you should make me pat you 5 times a day."

"I refuse, I don't want to learn the technique anymore, but at least you can tell me about how to use it," Sayuri said, pretending not to want to learn the technique, saying that, but he was still curious about the technique Ryuu made.

"If you want to know how to use this technique, allow me to pat you once a day," Ryuu said with a grin.

“I don't want to know, I'll ask my father or grandfather about it, they definitely know about this technique, I'll ask you about it,” Sayuri said upset and planned to go home to ask her father about the technique.

"Do you really want to go home, they probably won't let you come back here again." Ryuu knows they will let him back but he tries to tease her and if she is lucky he might let her pet him.

Sayuri started to doubt. He had only been here for twenty days and had seen Konoha and a few places near Konoha only when Tsunade and the girls left for duty outside Konoha.

"How about this I will teach you the technique as well if you agree to my request beforehand, patting you once a day is enough," he said sadly as if he had given up too much on the deal.

'Does he think I'm stupid? He was clearly trying to lure me with these words, 'Sayuri looked at Ryuu who pretended to have lost a lot with this deal, but he really wanted to know what technique Ryuu had created and was overwhelmed with curiosity, 'This is not like me. would lose a lot by doing this, it was just a few pats. It'll be over in a while.'

“OK, I agree with that, but only once a day, now I start my education,” Sayuri said seriously, then get excited and want to learn now.

Ryuu smiled triumphantly and then said, "We will practice this technique tomorrow, but I will tell you some information about this technique now. This technique allows for increased lifespan and vi...Aaaah why are you doing this"

Sayuri slapped Ryuu's face, leaving a trail of claws on his face.

Sayuri was angry because she thought the technique Ryuu was talking about was her clan's technique, and thought Ryuu was stupid for trying to trick her with that technique.

"Because you tried to trick me with a technique I already knew," Sayuri said seriously while trying to tear Ryuu's face with her claws.

Ryuu threw Sayuri down before hitting her face with his claws again, then seriously said, "Let me finish it, don't be too quick to judge that my technique is the same as yours."

"OK, tell me what your technique is doing." Sayuri stared at Ryuu sharply and was ready to attack if she was unsure of the explanation.

Then Ryuu explained about the Art of Sage: complete body cultivation but he said nothing about sexual stamina.

As Ryuu demonstrated the use of the technique, Tsunade treated the wounds on her face left by Sayuri's claws.

After Sayuri heard Ryuu explanation become calm and returned to her shoulder, Ryuu said, "May I pat you now? I told you about the technique."

"OK, as per our agreement once a day," Sayuri said and let Ryuu pat her.

Ryuu touched his fur and felt soft, warm and comfortable when he touched it, then hugged him and started patting his head, he felt an indescribable feeling of carrying Sayuri in his arms, so much so that she always wanted to hug him.
