And we are BACK! And I didn't get killed by Tsunade! So that's great. Though yes, chapters are coming out a bit more slowly now since I've been busy at work and all that stuff. Since its 2nd shift, its not like I have as much time to write. So likely Elsword: The Magician II will be set on a backburner to an extent. Though it also means that I will probably try to better set up what I want to happen in said series since its AU from canon in that one. In any case though, here's some responses to recent comments.
Not sure on the whole nee-san thing, but who knows. However, I will say that the Kyuubi will not be named Kurama in this case. Going with a more feminine name, which one of my friends recommended to me. As to what the name will be, its gonna be a while before I reveal that.
As for the Kiba thing, I already have an excuse for that which will be noted when Asuka reveals it.
And for Karin, still trying to figure out whether or not to add her to the Harem. Because unlike some writers who just drop the girls in and just imply they had a thing, I like there to be reasons why they came to like him, such as Hinata for his never give up attitude plus the whole helped her with bullies issue, Asuka since his cheery attitude managed to give her light in the darkest part of her life, and Haku with the the saving her life and how they have the joys of pranking in common with each other.
Also to the NaruHina hater, tough luck. While yes I can agree that they didn't have too many interactions before the movie, I still like the pairing. If anything, blame Kishimoto for that then.
BTW, for reasons, I'll at least start noting who are the current girls confirmed in the Harem each chapter
Confirmed Members: Haku, Asuka, Hinata, ? (will be noted in this chapter)
Now, before I forget, I'm just gonna be lazy and say I don't own Naruto. It belongs to other people. I just own the story, techniques, and whatever OCs I come up with, like that stupid Waterfall nin for example. Now on with the show!
Chapter 16: Failures No More
Still the freaking Tower, Forest of Death, Konohagakure, Land of Fire
The mood in the room was a bit somber as several Konoha ninja had went to clean up the damage from the previous fights...the main reason being the remains and blood of the now deceased waterfall nin.
Fu honestly couldn't tell if she felt bad for the guy, or decided he got what he asked for. Just like the rest of the waterfall villagers, he didn't want to listen to her. All because of the fact she happened to be their village's Jinchurikki.
As for the Sand nin, they weren't as disturbed as the rest of the viewers, as they all had a feeling Gaara would do that. They all knew his tendencies due to the hellish 'training' his father put him through, even if it meant his one daughter would hate him for it. Though unfortunately for Temari, it's not like she could reprimand him without repercussion. She learned that the hard way a long time ago.
As for Team 7…
"Man that brought down the mood we all had dattebayo." Naruto spoke as he observed the surroundings.
"Indeed." Kakashi replied as he read one of his orange books...which he put a genjutsu cover on to avoid the book being burned to ash by Kurenai.
Asuka simply looked over to where the redhead boy was, and spoke "Just what is he though?"
Naruto then spoke low enough to speak to his team alone "Well...from what THEY said...one tail. AKA the crazy one."
Haku replied "Oh...well that's troubling…"
"Well, I'm sure we could handle it, right?" Sakura asked them.
Naruto pondered for a moment as he looked at the boy from across the room. And for a moment...he thought he could see something...something familiar.
He then shook his head, but right before he could answer the pinkette, Kakashi answered in his stead.
"Well, depends really. Worst case, you're dealing with a giant tanuki with sand power. Best case, what you just saw on the arena floor. Though out of the 4 of you...Naruto and Haku would have the best chance."
"And how is that?" Sakura asked.
"And why not me or Sakura?" Asuka asked as well.
Kakashi put his book away as he pondered "Well, those two have ways of dealing with his sand, such as Haku's ice and Naruto's...specialities. 'Sasuke', right now you don't have a way to get through his sand, plus you would need to improve your speed to not get caught, though that's improvable. And Sakura, your problem is that you're a close range specialist with no way to puncture that defense. So you would have to rely entirely on speed, which would likely exhaust you...even if you use the gates...also by the way, when were you going to tell me about that?"
"Eheheh." Sakura said as she scratched the back of her head.
And Naruto commented "Don't worry Sakura, I'm sure if you wanted to you could power of youth it to kick his bu-"
Though he was caught off as the pinkette yelled "Shut up Naruto!" and punched him on the top of his head out of both annoyance, and embarrassment.
Of course, Haku giggled and Asuka sighed as she couldn't really go over there to help him without raising questions.
Though of course any bump he did get on his head would not heal long after due to his regenerative capabilities.
After recovering, he then pumped his fists to get motivated and yelled "Alright, I gotta show off to get peoples' minds off that stuff and show em their next hokage!"
Asuka let out a quick smile before putting it away to keep the 'Sasuke' persona going. In her mind, she was slowly getting more and more annoyed that due to the circumstances, she couldn't be herself and couldn't really show affection for the boy she loved in public.
Ugh, acting like this was annoying enough before!...maybe reveal it in the finals? The ravenette thought.
Sakura would have hit him for that, but since he was also trying to improve the mood...she let it slide. With a hint of a smile on her face.
Typical Naruto. Sakura thought.
Haku noticed it though and let a grin come across her face.
Oh I am going to enjoy teasing her later for that. The ice user thought with glee.
And of course, Kakashi did his typical eye smile.
Right as he made his announcement, the mood in the room turned a bit more normal due to the boy's antics...save for right next to Gaara. Can't exactly feel excited or anything when standing next to the psycho killer himself.
Fu looked at the Kyuubi's jinchuuriki and spoke out loud "Well, at least he's got his mind in the right place."
Within her own seal, Chomei nodded in agreement.
And a bit away from Team 7, Hinata smiled as she watched Naruto's antics.
That's the Naruto I know!...well, sort of. He's got those ears and tail now hidden under seals by the looks of it. I wonder if he'll let me touch the-wait wait wait, what if they're sensitive? Would it be lewd!? I don't know! She thought as her mind started to run a mile a minute. Kurenai noticed her pupil blushing as she looked over at Naruto and smiled.
She knew about the crush the young girl had. Honestly Kurenai didn't even mind it. It would help her self-motivation. Heck in their personal training sessions, she even used genjutsus of Naruto in an attempt to motivate her...and lo and behold, she would do much better...as long as she didn't faint first.
But before anything else could happen, Hayate announced "The arena has been cleared...finally. So we will now continue!"
The scoreboard then flashed the remaining set of names before it stopped on those who would be competing in the next match.
Naruto Uzumaki vs Kiba Inuzuka
"Yes! Finally!" Naruto yelled in excitement.
Kiba also yelled as "Yes! Thank you RNG! We can easily kick his ass, right Akamaru?"
However, his dog decided to be silent on the matter.
"Eh, Akamaru, come on, he's the deadlast...right?" Kiba asked the dog, a bit confused. He then shrugged and made his way to the arena floor where Naruto was already standing and waiting. As Kiba got down to the floor, he noticed something a bit strange, and supposed it must have been what Akamaru caught on.
That's weird...he smells a bit different...like...foxes? The Inuzuka boy thought.
He then shook his head and yelled "Ah doesn't matter! I'm still gonna kick your ass! If I don't, I'll wear that retarded jacket for a month!"
It was at this point, all the genins who knew Naruto's current power level all thought the same thing. Even Neji let a smirk hit his face. Well except Hinata who didn't really think the jacket was that bad on Naruto.
Well Kiba's going to bite those words.
In the seal, The Kyuubi said "Oh now you can't lose this! Just imagine how stupid he'll look. It might not fit you well, but it'll be so much worse on him!"
Minato ended up chuckling a bit at the Kyuubi's idea on the matter.
Naruto of course retorted "Oh come on! Not you too! UUUGGHH. You're gonna regret those words Kiba! Also, screw deadlast! If anything, that's you now!"
Hayate then looked at the two of them, well three of them, and then announced the start of the match.
"Match 7: Naruto Uzumaki vs Kiba Inuzuka, BEGIN!"
As the proctor jumped away, Akamaru jumped off Kiba's shoulder and Kiba cracked his neck a bit.
"Are you ready for the ass kicking loser!? Cuz I fucking got this!" Kiba said with a smirk.
Naruto then said in response "Is that right?...well, then…"
Naruto made a single handsign, and after a plume of smoke engulfed the arena...Kiba found himself surrounded by 30 shadow clones of Naruto.
"What about this dog breath?" the Narutos asked him in mischievous glee.
Everyone in the stands, save for the Hokage, Anbu, and the other members of the rookie 13 looked in astonishment. Even Orochimaru was surprised. And Gaara was starting to smile that insane reeking smile of his.
That many Shadow Clones at such a young age!? And he's clearly holding back and not even using the Kyuubi's chakra. Uggghh, I want to experiment on the boy, but I also want to murder him dead! DAMMIT! Orochimaru thought, conflicted.
"Um...we got this...right Akamaru?" Kiba asked his partner as he looked in fear at the multitude of Naruto's.
However, Akamaru on the other hand...he simply raised his paws in surrender. He knew they were outmatched.
"Well...It doesn't fucking matter! I'm the Alpha! And 0 times 30 is still 0! So watch as I kick your ass! LEEROOOY JENKINSSSSS!" Kiba yelled as he rushed the clones. Akamaru meanwhile decided to step to the side for this one. While he was loyal to Kiba, he knew the blond boy, er, boys, would at least not kill Kiba. Plus he too thought Kiba needed an ego adjustment.
What followed was basically a brutal, ego stomping beatdown of the Inuzuka by a bunch of orange clad Naruto clones. The crowd would have felt bad for him if it wasn't for the fact that he chose to run straight at the blond with no plan whatsoever, even more so at the fact that despite how he was getting his ass kicked by Naruto, he kept getting up. Well, some people didn't know whether to respect that, or facepalm at that.
"Screw the name Deadlast indeed it seems." Neji spoke as the beating was just about done. He was able to get a better guess at the boy's current power as he watched the fight with the Byakugan.
Along with the facts that he had seen the boy before one time Hinata was watching Naruto train, and he had seen the aftermath of Naruto's fight with the Sannin, Naruto had improved immensely. He just didn't know if it was due to luck, or whatever training the boy pushed himself through.
As the dust settled after Naruto dispelled his clones, it revealed an unscathed Naruto...and a broken and bruised all over Kiba, and Akamaru at his side trying to comfort at least some of the damage done.
Hayate looked over at the now twitching boy on the ground, and announced the result.
"The winner of the seventh match is Naruto Uzumaki!"
Naruto did a little victory pose at that, much to Haku's amusement, and Asuka's glee though she had to hide her expression sadly. Meanwhile Sakura merely facepalmed at the last part since he was basically showboating.
As for Kiba's own team, Shino was simply shaking his head at Kiba's stupidity and Kurenai was trying to understand how the Deadlast of their year was somehow so powerful, though considering his hair and eyes, Kurenai did have a few accurate guesses. Hinata was simply beaming as she watched the boy she had a crush on. He had become much stronger. And if he could improve despite the hells he was put through, she felt that she too could surpass the title of 'failure'.
While Naruto was getting it out of his system, a group of medics came onto the arena to get the boy, one in particular walked in front of the boy. It was a woman with brown hair put into a ponytail in the back as well as two bangs that framed her face. And lastly were her black eyes and red clan markings on her cheeks noting her as an Inuzuka.
She then bopped the younger Inuzuka's head, which brought him out of his unconscious state, just to notice the woman in front of him. He looked a little worried as she scowled at the boy.
"Kiba...what's lesson 4?" She asked him.
"Ummm...was it 'not fuck up' Hana nee-san?" The boy answered.
"No idiot. It's not underestimate your enemies. And what did you do?" Kiba's older sister asked him.
Kiba groaned "I underestimated him…"
Hana smiled as she said "Good boy. Though mom will probably make you do extra training. Though at least Akamaru isn't hurt."
She then grabbed Akamaru since Kiba wouldn't be holding the dog anytime soon, and gave the blond boy a nod. She like the other members of the Rookie 13 hoped this would help reel in Kiba's ego. As her way out though, she happened to look towards Asuka and had a tinge of a frown on her face. As if she was reminded of something.
Naruto had noticed it, a bit muddled but decided to let it be for now. Though he did guess that Asuka might know something about it at least.
After Kiba, the medics, and Hana Inuzuka left, Naruto went back upstairs to where his team was with a big grin on his face. As he went back up, Hayate smiled.
"The kid sure has grown…too bad she had to miss this." he said to himself.
"That's 3 victories for team 7! We just need Haku-chan to win and then bam! All of us will be in the finals!" Naruto shouted in his glee. And he wasn't wrong either, so far other than Gaara's team, they had the most members to pass the preliminaries.
Haku replied "True Naruto-kun. Though there are still other powerful opponents still in the running. Though at least I don't have to worry about fighting any of you three just yet."
Asuka smirked as she said "Well, we'll see how the finals go. Truth be told, I do want a bit of a rematch Haku." And she wasn't lying either. She honestly wanted a rematch.
Haku smirked back and said "Is that so? Well, I'll look forward to it."
Sakura merely sighed at their antics. Though she did have to admit, she too wanted to see where she was at compared to her teammates. They had their spars, though they had always held back a bit. Though in Sakura's case, it was more along the lines of not wanting to use the whole 'power of youth' thing.
Their banter were interrupted however as the next set of combatants were chosen.
Hinata Hyuuga Vs Neji Hyuuga
"This could be troublesome…" Kakashi said as he closed his book.
Naruto asked the man "Why is that Kaka-sensei? They're related like family right?"
"Because...Hinata is of the Main House of the family, and Neji the Branch House. And there has been tension between some of the two houses for a while…Neji being one such case." Kakashi answered the boy.
Naruto looked confused at the man's answer until Minato elaborated.
"Essentially the Branch members are meant to 'protect' the members of the Main House. Though that's sugarcoating it. It more like the Branch House are slaves to the Main House due to the use of a curse seal meant to both seal the Byakugan upon death...but also allows Main House members to punish them through the seal."
WHAT!? That's stupid! And Hinata doesn't seem like the kind of girl to force that on people! Naruto thought spoke to his father.
Minato then added "Well, it's more of the clan's damned elders. Heck before my death, me, your mother, and the Hyuuga family head, Hinata's father, were working in secret on a way to remove the seal. Though of course, you know what happened."
The Kyuubi, currently in her humanoid (fox girl) form pouted as she said "Hey, that wasn't exactly my fault in that case. I may like destruction and hate having my freedoms restricted, but I don't exactly like killing those who don't deserve it. Blame the fucking masked bastard."
Naruto and Minato both nodded to that. After all the Kyuubi wasn't exactly in her right mind when she had been released upon the village. Plus from what they had seen so far, she wasn't all that bad...though she did have her destructive tendencies.
The Kyuubi then added on an additional comment.
"Though...I do sense a lot of negativity from that boy...it's not directed directly at her though…"
As that went on over with Team 7, Hinata and Neji both walked down to the arena floor and faced down with each other. Hinata was looking a bit nervous, while Neji was giving his cousin a bit of a glare.
"N-Neji-nii-san" Hinata spoke as she greeted him.
"Hinata-sama…" Neji spoke with a bit of venom in his tone.
Hayate sighed as he could tell this match might not end well based on what he knew and how the two acted.
"You should just quit here Hinata-sama. You aren't capable of defeating me. It would be pointless." Neji spat at her.
Hinata tried to speak up, but couldn't find the words. The part of her that wanted to prove him wrong, and the part of her that felt like the failure she had been called by her clansmen conflicted with each other. She had not won a majority of the spars in the clan, though the few that understood her knew it was simply due to her gentle nature.
So she looked down as she stuttered "I-I…have g-gotten b-better..." Though of course Neji looked as if he wasn't buying it.
Naruto was a bit annoyed at how Neji was acting. He had originally been conflicted at who to root for in this case, but he was now certain who to cheer on.
"You got this Hinata! Believe it!" Naruto cheered from the stands. Of course, literally all the members of their class besides the boy himself knew the girl had a crush on the boy. And so as a result...
"Neji-nii san...I have improved. Even if I don't win...I'll show you that just like Naruto-kun that I am no longer a failure." she spoke as she got into her juken stance. Her pose much more confident now.
Neji's eyes widened at her response, it was probably the first time he heard her NOT stutter. He then looked over at the orange clad ninja and thought Right, she has a crush on him.
Upon further thought, he considered how despite he was originally the Deadlast of his year, he ended up stepping out of that title when the opportunity came. He then looked over at the heiress...and then stopped glaring as hard as he got into his own juken stance.
"Very well then Hinata-sama...show me then just how much you've improved. I'll decide whether or not you're no longer a failure however."
Hayate couldn't help but smile a bit there as it seemed the tension shifted to something much more...manageable.
Meanwhile Naruto had his mouth wide open as he had never heard Hinata sound so confident and not stutter. Meanwhile Minato nodded as his actions gave the girl the boost she needed...and of course, the Kyuubi was laughing at the poor boy's confusion.
"Match 8: Hinata Hyuuga Vs Neji Hyuuga. BEGIN!" the proctor announced.
Much to everyone's surprise, the first to move was Hinata herself, as she dashed in and started to throw several juken strikes at Neji. While he was caught off guard for a moment, he swatted away a majority of them, though a couple of her strikes managed to hit home and do some damage to some of his muscles on his arms. However, he launched his own counterattack when an opening appeared, forcing Hinata back.
"Well, you've never fought this well before. Did Uzumaki cheering you on give you that much motivation?" Neji asked her while he thought of his next move.
Hinata simply nodded back...though with a bit of a blush on her face.
Neji decided to take advantage of the moment and started his assault on the girl, which she reacted to quick enough to handle head on.
Soon enough the two were making a series of swipes, palm strikes, and even finger strikes at each other, along with said attacks being dodged, parried away, or landing home on some part of their bodies.
The members of Hinata's class were honestly surprised. They had never seen the girl so motivated before...save for at least three of them. Asuka due to the fact she had a feeling as to why Hinata normally held back, Naruto since he hadn't really seen her skills enough to make an assumption, and Kiba since he wasn't even there at the moment since Naruto had sent him to the infirmary.
Also up in the stands, Kurenai had a pleasant smile on her face. For once in a while, her student was actually confident and displaying herself to her full ability. It was even better than the training sessions she had with the young girl
Oh, if only those damn Elders could see her now. Their reactions would have been priceless she thought.
However…
Hinata's eyes widened in surprise as she stepped back, and she quickly pulled up on of the sleeves on her arms, seeing that it was now riddled with several pinpoint strikes from Neji's attacks.
"Y-You can see Tenketsu!?" She asked him in surprise.
Neji nodded and spoke "Yes...as a result, your left arm can no longer use Juken."
However, on the inside, Neji was still impressed with how the girl managed to only have ONE of her arms now disabled. He wanted to get both of them, but the girl had managed to avoid the attacks on the other arm.
"Again, you should surrender. This match is clearly in my favor." he spoke.
Everyone looked a bit nervous, though she simply looked at her crush and spoke back.
"I won't. As the boy I care the most about had said to himself over and over...I'll never give up, that's my ninja way!" Hinata said as she prepared herself once more in her juken stance.
Haku caught what she meant and giggled at the thought.
"Wow Naruto-kun, you're quite the lady-killer." she teased the boy.
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked her.
"Think about what Hinata just said…" she said with her mischievous grin.
He processed it for several moments...before he then turned around, and hit his head on the wall.
It was at this point of time that both Shikamaru and Choji ended up handing Ino a portion of their money while she grinned.
"Dammit, we shouldn't have made that bet on how long it would take him to realize that." Shikamaru muttered. To which Choji put a hand on his shoulder to share their mutual grief over lost money.
In fact, several of the Anbu were also doing similar things as they too had their bets on the manner. The Hokage was smiling both at how his grandson figure was growing up...and how he managed to make enough of a killing that it made up for the other bet he lost with Kakashi.
"Finally figured it out baka?" Sakura said to him.
Naruto walked back over to the railing and asked "Is that why you always said no when I asked you out?"
Sakura replied "Part of it...and also because you're an idiot...though not as much of an idiot as before at least."
Naruto sighed "True enough...though I dug my own grave when I jinxed myself when we were dealing with that problem. Hopefully Hinata is the last one I apparently was too dense to notice."
Of course, both the Kyuubi and Minato sweatdropped as they both thought of one such person.
Ichiraku Ramen, Konohagakure, Land of Fire, Same time
"Achoo!"
"You alright Ayame?" an older man asked the brown haired girl that just sneezed.
"I'm fine tou-san, probably just someone talking about me." the girl said. She had long brown hair, dark eyes, fair skin, and a smile that always bought them customers.
Teuchi, her father, merely grinned and said "Maybe it was your little crush saying something about you, eh?"
"TOU-SAN!"
Back at the Arena
They then decided to quit the banter for the moment as the battle below continued. However, things were slowly turning in Neji's favor.
He had started to get more and more blows in, though Hinata still managed to get a few of her own attacks in as well. As a result, both of them had bruises all over their bodies, though in Hinata's case, the only visible ones were on her sleeves due to her jacket covering most of her body.
They then split up once more. While both of them were out of breath, Hinata seemed more so. Though to her, it was still an accomplishment that for once in her life, she was actually giving her cousin a challenge.
"Again...give up Hinata-sama...you won't win." Neji spoke between breaths.
Hinata retorted back to him "As I said...b-before...even if I d-don't...win...I'll prove I'm no longer...a failure."
Neji felt both contempt...and pride at the same time. While yes, he hated the Main House...he couldn't bring himself to hate her on the same level. Yes she was a member of said house, yes she had no shown any skill until just now, but in comparison to the rest of them, she actually showed that she gave a damn about the Branch House. So in comparison to the rest, he didn't hold as much against her.
He then smirked as he decided on how to finish the fight.
"Very well then...prepare yourself." he said before he dashed in, forcing the adrenaline in his body to carry him forwards.
This time however, she was overwhelmed. The fatigue of her body finally overcame her willpower, and as a result, despite dodging or blocking several of the attacks, a multitude of Hinata's tenketsu were sealed, causing her to fall to the ground, no longer able to move as she feel onto the floor, with her eyes staring at the ceiling.
The proctor looked at the girl. He could tell she could no longer continue. He nodded as he announced "The winner of the 8th match is Neji Hyuuga!"
Naruto frowned a little at the outcome. He was a bit sad that she still lost despite her hard work. That and of course he would cheer even harder for someone who truly cared about him. He could tell the words she had spoken earlier were genuine.
Neji then walked so that she could see him above her, and then spoke.
"I told you I would win...but...I will admit...you were right about one thing."
He smirked as he said "You are no longer a failure. Seems fate isn't as strong as I thought."
Hinata smiled as hard as she could from that. Happy that for once, one of her family members, other than her little sister, had actually praised her.
But then of course Neji landed one last blow on her. He wanted at least a bit of revenge for the damage she had done on him.
"Though I never expected you to be confident enough to essentially confess to the Uzumaki. Have fun with that." he said to her. By now, her confidence boost from Naruto was just about gone. As a result, the girl's face went red to a level that the older ninja could compare her face to Kushina Uzumaki's hair, and thus passed out.
Naruto meanwhile headbanged the railing as Neji had essentially reminded him of how dense he had been to not notice there were in fact girls crushing on him. Haku merely thought of how fun it would be to tease the poor bluenette later. Asuka smiled as she was happy Hinata finally got the courage to do so, even if it was just a spur of the moment thing.
As for Sakura, she was finally happy that Hinata got the guts to do so finally. While yes, she was focused on gaining 'Sasuke's' affections in the past, she wanted to help the Hyuuga girl as she thought it was adorable the way the girl crushed on Naruto. Plus she didn't exactly like the idiot at the time since he was constantly asking her out plus what her mother told about the boy.
It was at that moment, Sakura's thoughts moved on a tangent.
Wait...is mom one of the people who hate Naruto due to the whole Kyuubi thing? That would explain why she always told me to stay away from him.
"Oh definitely. She calls him things like demon spawn and all that, though other than his pranks, Naruto-kun doesn't deserve that cha!" her Inner self replied.
And to be fair, it's strange how she never acts like that toward anyone el-wait, did you call him kun?
As their little conversation went on, Hinata was taken by the medics to be brought over to the infirmary as Neji then walked back up the stairs, greeted by Gai with a HUGE grin on his face.
Nothing needed to be said though as both knew what they were thinking on the manner. Though of course even if they did, it wouldn't matter as the next set of names were shown on the scoreboard.
Lee vs Fu
Within the seal, the Kyuubi and Minato smirked as they then commented at the same time.
"Oh, this is gonna be good."
Naruto: Well, that was fun
Hinata: And I'm happy that I actually put up a better fight here than in canon
Haku: Don't forget that you confessed to Naruto-kun too
Hinata: Haku-san!
WVH: That and Ayame is now implied to like him too. And maybe Sakura.
Ayame and Sakura: WVH!
Kakashi: Lady-killer indeed. Makes me wonder how many girls WVH has plans to give Naruto. Hopefully he leaves some for the rest of us
WVH: Oh don't worry. I even got a pairing planned for you too.
Kakashi: ..wait what?
WVH: Anyways, to the fans, thanks for your support so far and I hope you enjoyed the chapter! Be sure to R&R, as well as come back for the next chapter!
Kyuubi: Though that depends on how much you slack off
WVH: I'm not that bad
Kyuubi: Fire Emblem?
WVH: ...touche
Kakashi: Wait! Answer my question! Just wh-
