Nawaki and Tsunade devoted both day and night to meditation, continuing until darkness fell once again.

They utilized all the orbs Nawaki had acquired the previous night.

As a result, their power had increased substantially.

Though Nawaki's advancement was somewhat limited after reaching the initial stages of Kage-level power, Tsunade had become exceptionally strong, distinguishing herself even among those with Kage-level abilities.

She had reached a level of strength where she felt confident enough to confront a Biju.

Unlike Nawaki, Tsunade had only learned the lightning divine art and refrained from enhancing it further. She chose not to take another orb until Nawaki had sufficiently increased his own strength, prioritizing his growth over hers.

Tsunade could sense Nawaki's Kage-level strength, feeling a similar unseen pressure she experienced in the presence of the Third Hokage.

'In just 3 days, Nawaki will turn 12, and he already possesses such immense strength at such a young age...' Tsunade thought, looking at Nawaki with affectionate eyes.

"Let's take a bath?" Nawaki suggested, feeling uncomfortable with the smell and stickiness of impurities clinging to his skin.

Nawaki, having learned that it was possible to transport scrolls to the hunting dimension as long as they were sealed within his body, had prepared a three-meter sheep with sharp horns and smooth fur, sealed in a scroll for their use.

The moment the sheep materialized, Nawaki swiftly beheaded it, denying it any opportunity for retaliation.

He skillfully used his wind powers to channel all the blood into a bowl. Nawaki had come to understand the importance of this magical beast's blood. He had observed that when the blood of previous sheep from the hunting dimension contacted the soil behind his room, it induced mutations in the plants.

Though he wasn't planning to implement it immediately, Nawaki contemplated using the blood of magical beasts from the hunting dimension to cultivate crops superior to those found in this world. The prospect of consuming vegetables, rice, and other staples rich in pure energy was tantalizing enough to make Nawaki salivate.

Yet, he had more pressing matters to attend to, so this agricultural plan would have to wait. However, this didn't diminish his eagerness to consume the meat of the magical beasts, as this did not require any cultivation.

Tsunade assisted him in butchering the sheep. She even requested the sheep's fur, noting its high quality. Nawaki readily agreed to her request.

"Sis, these sheep, though stronger than ordinary sheep, are still quite weak. I can bring you more if you want their fur," Nawaki offered.

Unbeknownst to him, his desire to procure more sheep would intensify after tasting their meat...

"Really? Thank you~" Tsunade responded with a smile, looking up at him with her bright brown eyes filled with open affection.

As they finished processing the sheep's meat, setting it aside, the soft and enticing aroma of the meat was so appealing it almost invited them to eat it raw...

Nawaki began slicing the meat into steaks, his almond-shaped eyes sparkling under the enticing fragrance's influence. A small smile of anticipation for breakfast played on his well-defined lips.

Tsunade, observing him, found herself captivated by the scene. Nawaki's maturing handsomeness was increasingly evident with each passing day.

She also noted that he had grown an inch taller than her, realizing that soon she might have to look up to meet his gaze.

With a low, slightly hoarse voice tinged with temptation, Nawaki said, "Sis, I'm going to make some oil from the sheep's fat, and then fry the steaks. I bet they'll be delicious~"

His gray-green eyes shimmered with anticipation.

"Yes, I'm sure they will be," Tsunade replied, her own anticipation growing.

Together, Nawaki and Tsunade moved to the kitchen.

Although Nawaki was the more skilled cook, Tsunade still contributed by washing and chopping vegetables.

The first task was getting the rice on the stove.

After the preliminary preparations, Nawaki heated some oil in a frying pan. Once the oil was hot, he added the marinated meat, sautéing it briefly before transferring it to a plate. The meat, already tender and flavorful, retained its juiciness thanks to the quick frying in hot oil.

Soon, the kitchen was filled with a mouthwatering aroma, heralding a delectable meal.

Tsunade gazed at the golden mutton steak, its appealing appearance and seductive smell making her mouth water. The enticing aroma was so strong that it stirred a sense of hunger within her.

She wasn't alone in this; Nawaki's stomach growled audibly, prompting laughter from both of them.

"I can't wait to try it~" Nawaki hummed in anticipation.

The delicious smell had also drawn Mito and Kushina to the kitchen.

"Just a few more minutes, and I'll bring it into the living room," Nawaki said with a small, pleased smile.

Kushina beamed with excitement. "Yes, I'm really looking forward to it. Nawaki's cooking is the best in the dattebane world!"

Nawaki laughed, appreciating the compliment. He was aware that the exceptional taste of the food was not solely due to his culinary skills, but being praised by Kushina, a charming little girl, was always delightful.

Once Nawaki finished the preparations, he carried the meal into the living room.

He had cooked over 10 kilograms of sheep meat, enough for a substantial feast.

Five lunchboxes were filled with the meat, and the remainder was set aside for breakfast. Having skipped several meals during their meditation, both he and Tsunade were eager to compensate for the missed meals.

Moreover, with their increased strength, Nawaki noticed an uptick in their appetites, necessitating a larger meal than usual.

As the food was served, its tantalizing aroma quickly filled the room, enticing even Mito, whose mouth began to water at the sight.

The mutton, which shimmered golden, steamed invitingly, emitting a delightful fragrance that seemed almost otherworldly.

As the rice was served and topped with a generous piece of lamb, a golden sauce, rich but not greasy, oozed out, tinting the rice a lustrous gold.

Accompanying the main dish were carrots, tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, and beets for a salad, but initially, no one reached for them, captivated by the meat.

"This meat is special, isn't it?" Mito inquired, eyeing her plate before taking a bite.

"Mm, you're right, Grandma Mito," Nawaki confirmed.

Mito didn't pursue further questions, content with his acknowledgment.

"Thanks for the food," they chorused.

"Dattebane!" Kushina added cheerfully.

After expressing their gratitude, they began to eat.

The meal's appearance was surpassed only by its taste; the lamb was unexpectedly more delicious than rabbit meat, a feat they hadn't thought possible.

Mito began with the rice soaked in the meat sauce, finding immense satisfaction in its flavor.

When she finally tasted the lamb, she was struck by its tenderness and freshness. Before she knew it, she had helped herself to three more generous portions.

"Delicious..." Mito sighed, her expression radiating satisfaction. She was not only well-fed but visibly delighted by the exquisite meal.

To Mito, the term 'delicious' seemed inadequate to describe the feast. The combination of golden meat sauce-infused rice, tender lamb, and the fresh tang of tomatoes, pickles, and lettuce was nothing short of divine.

"Thank you for the delicious meal, Nawaki. Grandma is very grateful," Mito expressed warmly, smiling before rising from her seat.

Feeling content and satiated, she sensed it was time to take her leave.

Mito was well aware of the miraculous effect the food was having on her body. Realizing she needed to excuse herself to avoid any discomfort or embarrassment in front of the others, she decided to leave promptly.

"Not at all, Grandma Mito, you're always welcome here~" Nawaki replied warmly, smiling.

Mito returned the smile and then took her leave.

"Yummy, delicious! Nawaki, you are amazing dattebane!" Kushina exclaimed, heaping praise on Nawaki for his culinary skills.

Tsunade, too, expressed her enjoyment, refraining from mentioning her contribution to the salad. She recognized that even its appeal was enhanced when paired with the meat and rice topped with the golden sauce.

"Thank you, it was delicious dattebane!" Suddenly, Kushina expressed her gratitude and hurriedly left the room, feeling an urgent need to visit the bathroom...
