While things went over the edge with Shuten and caused him a spike in stress, Hima healed his heart with her childish demeanor.
She was always so lovely. She was just happy with being Daddy's little princess and playing around without worrying about becoming an adult.
Among the children she seemed to not have any such desires. She was pure through and through.
Naruto worried about her having problems later on with such a personality but Hima had proved that she was very capable regardless of how she acted.
He felt relieved that she didn't change.
Shuten was a problem now but there was also the issue that she might end up influencing the other girls, as Shuten was the big sister figure.
"Daddy, how did I do?" Hima asked as she sat in Naruto's lap in her chibi form.
They were in the Summon world where Hima's monsters lived. It was a huge planet with all kinds of terrains.
At the moment they were sitting on a mountain top poking through the clouds and Hima had been practicing her light and darkness affinities.
Hima's main elements were Yin and Yang. She was trying to fully awaken her Tensaigan and other hand also trying to mix the elements.
Among the children, she was third place but the difference would disappear with the awakening. Now Boruto had caught up with her and he might end up reaching Shuten someday.
Naruto hugged Hima like she was his teddy bear, "You were great. The mix had more power and stability than before."
"Really? Can I use Chaos degrade or Taiji soon?" Hima asked with excitement clear in her tone as she held her hands in front of her body while darkness and light mixed with each other.
It was a volatile process that could easily kill her if she wasn't careful. Yin and Yang had impact on the mental and soul realm of the body, so the danger was very obvious.
Naruto raised an eye brow and smirked, "Not yet, both are too dangerous for my cute little princess."
"Aww, but I did so well against that ugly monster." Hima complained as she thought she had improved a lot especially after the battle. Her body and soul seemed to go through a change after such a battle.
The dream world had good impact on all of them.
Naruto smiled and gave a chuckle at her words as he rubbed his cheek against hers. She was just so adorable.
"Yes, you were exceptional. That combo was smooth and your power over reality is starting to blossom. But, Taiji and Chaos degrade are very high level skills. One mistake and you will send everyone to their deaths." Naruto was proud of his children. They were just so beautiful and powerful. It gave him a good feeling in his heart knowing that he had succeeded in being a great father.
Shuten was a black spot on that record now.
"Mo, I get it. But, did Daddy love his gift?" Hima compressed the energy and shot a small arrow to the nearby peak causing it to vanish on touch as the arrow exploded without any noise or fanfare, just space collapsing as the attack erased space and everything in its range.
It would look like something absolutely grand in the eyes of weak creatures but anyone with average space manipulation could cancel it.
"Hmm, I am happy that you girls care so much…But, I hope you will spare the delicate heart of this old man. We can just go on a shopping date like usual, okay." Naruto shook her cute little head and playfully bit her cheek causing Hima to laugh.
Hima laughed at Naruto's usage of delicate heart. She knew her father could take the most extreme of things so his heart was farthest from being delicate.
"But I wanted to help out, I don't like it. I don't like it when these enemies annoy daddy." Hima turned around and hugged him, biting his cheek in retaliation.
Her biting prowess had upgraded but his skin was still too thick for those adorable teeth to pierce.
"You will fight, but can you wait for just 2 years?" Naruto put his forehead against hers and looked into her eyes that were beautiful just like her mother.
She was born with those birthmarks like him but Naruto had removed them, just like he did for Boruto. The marks ruined their looks.
He had done the same thing for himself. There was no need for them and the girls preferred him without them.
Hima pouted but she understood that her father was worried about them getting hurt. It was already a problem that the enemy could attack but it got worse when they started looking for trouble.
"2 years only" Hima replied
"Pinky promise" Naruto smiled as he hugged Hima and stood up.
"Un un, What about big sis?" Hima nodded and asked about Shuten. Naruto showed no change in expression.
"Shuten will also wait 2 years. It is the same for everyone. I want you to enjoy this time because you will be extremely busy later." Naruto replied gently, giving an eye smile as he put Hima down.
Hima didn't notice anything and she was unaware of Shuten's problem. She was also indirectly a rival for Shuten by being so close to Naruto.
Hima didn't ask for anything else but Naruto gave her a new Bow. Naruto was worried about them and decided to start giving them their end game weapons that he had prepared for his children.
For Hima he gave her the Brahmastra. It was a beautiful bow of gold and red with various jewels across it. It was made from the best materials and granted power of Immortals.
It was infused with his flesh, blood and bones.
It was a bow that sucked in the darkness and light, and destroyed the enemies in the way.
It could never miss. It caused debuff on enemies.
It boosted the user.
It came with the skills called Taiji, Chaos Degrade, Alpha Force, Reversal, Defence Down, Overdrive, Ten Crowns, Authority of the Princess, Innocent Affections, Sanctuary and Eden's Lance.
She was fully armed to fight anyone in the world as the weapon at full power would boost Himawari to above planetary level.
But he didn't want his children becoming dependent on outside power, so the weapons were sealed and only activated when the situation was dire.
In a normal setting the weapon was just highly durable and had the level of capabilities to Hima's actual level of power.
Other than the bow, she got an upgrade for her armor and accessories. She also got a new pair of earrings.
Getting the gifts, Hima was very happy and she kissed his cheeks.
After that the non-stop sparring started and Hima was destroyed by her Daddy using the powers she was trying to learn.
Darkness and light shining in his hands, Naruto hit Hima with the palms on her abdomen causing a seal to form from the elements that caused her powers to shut down before it exploded from her back.
It was the Yin-Yang seal.
It was painful but Hima didn't complain, she wasn't a baby anymore. She had cried and begged in the initial month but with time everyone got used to it.
It was a necessity and it made them stronger than everyone else.
