"Mei? You are Jiraiya's girl? This sure is shocking." Shiroken recognised the woman beside Jiraiya.

"Lord Dama, you forgot about me. You never even came to Kirigakure to see your most loyal Mizuka… Ex-Mizukage." She complained.

"I was just… a bit busy, Mei. So, how did you two meet each other?" He inquired.

Jiraiya answered, "Well, it was the work of fate. It turned out, Mei was a fan of my novels, and when I was in a book signing event in Kirigakure, she was there standing in line to get my sign. The moment we shook hands with each other, we felt an electric shock jolting us, I knew she was the one."

"I knew he was the one for me too. Although he's 20 years older than me, we're Shinobi, we can look young for a long long time." Mei added while lovingly holding Jiraiya's arm.

~That's called static electricity, I think.~ But, he was no party pooper, "I am happy for you two. When are you going to get married?"

"After you, Lord Dama." Mei blurted.

"Heh, then you should start preparing, it was nice meeting you two, I will head out now." He left Mei confused, only for her to get the news of his coming marriage from Jiraiya.

…

Shiroken went to meet the Bijuu one by one, he never really got to spend that much time with them since Hashirama caught them. He first saw Shukaku, helping make some buildings. "I never thought you'd become such a good partner of humans."

Shukaku scoffed, "Huh, I am their boss. Right?"

"YES, BOSS!" All workers shouted in one tone.

"See. I help them with the structure, they do the internal stuff. It's fun to work and pays me well. I never thought I'd have to buy food with money someday though." He said.

"Well, if you want to eat the tasty things that humans make then you need to pay," Shiroken advised him. Shukaku had really changed since the time he was freed, he had mellowed down and controlled his anger.

"Of course, but I usually don't have to. People give a lot of offerings at my shrine, I just eat them and be happy." Shukaku revealed.

Shiroken laughed, "Hahaha… I bet everyone enjoyed it then. Come, I will help you make this building today."

…

Next, Shiroken went to Son Goku, who was in a jungle at that point. He was responsible for the entire forest around the Dama City and all the fruit trees there.

"What are you doing, big man?" Shiroken asked him.

Son Goku had created a large space for himself where he could lie down. It was in the middle of the jungle so when he was lying down nobody could see him.

Son Goku woke up, "Ah, Shiro… how did you end up here? I'm just sitting, taking care of my precious banana trees… and others as well."

~Something tells me his priority is only banana trees, can't blame him, they're the tastiest fruits.~ Shiroken thought and jumped on top of Son Goku's head to sit and relax.

"What do you do most of the day?" He inquired.

"Well, most of my work starts at 4 in the morning, that's when I harvest the fruits, wash them in the lake and send them to the markets. After that, I have most of the day free, I either sleep or play on Saiken's farm." Son Goku gave an account of his daily life.

Shiroken couldn't help but feel a bit envious, but again, all the fighting and work he was doing was to give the Bijuu the life they were living right now. "I'm glad you're enjoying yourself, Son."

"Hehe, thanks. Now, I'm gonna take a nice nap." And then he went to sleep, snoring in seconds.

…

Shiroken went to all Bijuu like this, and his last visit was Chomei. It was tough getting to him as he was always flying somewhere. He just had too much energy.

"Where are you going?" Shiroken asked him.

"A… Shiro, come, let's fly together. And I'm going to Sunagakure, I have a concert there. I make a lot of money and then give it to orphanages, so they can take care of more children." Chomei explained.

Truly, a noble being. If not Chomei, then who would do this? "Haha, of course, it'd be you. Do you remember how you nearly named me Poopy?"

"Hehe, yes, it was a good name. Everybody would have been calling you Lord Poopy then." Chomei jokingly said.

"It would have been loved by people for all the wrong reasons. Well, I am thankful to you for taking me in. Living with you all was the best thing ever, there were some hurdles, but it's all cool now I guess." Shiroken remembered his entire life from day one.

"No, Shiro, we should thank you. If you had not come to us then we possibly would have never gotten together and would have split. We would have still been inside some Jinchuriki, getting ready to fight you or something." Chomei said. And it made a lot of sense. If Shiroken was not brought up by the Bijuu, he probably would have tried to fight them.

"Yeah, fate is weird. Well, you go on your way, I will return home. I want to take some good rest after that long space trip." He waved goodbye and returned to the palace.

…

"I see, you were waiting for me?" He saw Tsunade in the room already.

She chuckled, "Oh, you have no idea, I have been waiting for a year. Now, won't you satisfy your wife to be?"

He chuckled and closed the door, "When you ask me so kindly, how can I say no, an…"

Just as he was about to speak more, Tsunade dropped her Kimono, she was wearing nothing under it. His mouth was frozen, as he appreciated the beauty in front of him. Then, Tsunade seductively walked to him and held his chin, "Less talking, more work."

"Of course, I shall work for the entire day today, as well as the night." He lifted her in his arms and took her to the bed, *BAM* He threw her on it and also jumped over lightly, his clothes disappeared automatically.

"STOOOOOOP! For god's sake, I don't want to hear this anymore."

Shiroken stopped kissing her and stood up, he quickly put the blanket on her and then made his clothes cover him again. "Where are you, Tenken?"

"Here, under the bed!" Tenken voiced.

"What are you doing down there? I sold you to my clone!" Shiroken quickly took the sword out.

"It was you all along?! How cruel can you be?" Tenken shouted, crying.

Well, Shiroken felt bad, "Tsunade, I will be back in a minute. This sword has a snake trapped inside it."

He vanished from the place and appeared inside a jungle. There, without waiting, he unsealed the sword and let out the snake. But Tenken didn't realise, "You fight for the so-called freedom and have tormented me, kept me sealed inside this useless sword. It's a fate worse than being in a Jinchuriki."

"The Bijuu were not sealed as a punishment, they were wronged. While you were sealed by your great sage as a punishment. Big difference, but I do agree, I should have let you go. So go now, you are free." Shiroken turned around and started to leave.

"What?" That was when Tenken realised he was free, out of the sword. But he didn't shout in joy, he just saw the back of Shiroken, leaving him. He couldn't help but feel somewhat sad and empty at this sight.

*WOOSH*

He quickly slid beside him, "I've only known to live inside that sword for the past few centuries. My son does not remember me and my wife has forgotten I even exist. There is nowhere for me to go, the Dama City is my home and nobody can make me leave."

Shiroken chuckled, "Then you are welcome to stay, Tenken. You may have been a useless sword, but you were a decent entertainer. Go to Saiken's farm and ask him for a place to live."

Tenken's eyes twitched, unable to understand if it was a compliment. But he ignored it and headed to Saiken's farm.

Shiroken flew away this time, back to the Palace. Without waiting, he directly jumped on the bed to entertain his chubby wife-to-be.
