AN: Yerboi Razuhfy back at it again with another update! PepeJam.

Ight so like, some shit happened last chapter and yadda yadda yadda. Vali got his assed torched by Kakashi before activating "No, fuck you" and cheating. PepeLaugh.

Alot of you are assuming that Sakura will be getting the Boosted Gauntlet and while I love avoiding questions like this... Yes. She does indeed get the Boosted Gauntlet.

But it's not because I dislike Issei and or the Devils, etc. I have no issues with Issei as a character. Yes, his personality is annoying and as a protagonist he's basically just given all his powers. (Wow so original. Shonen Anime so good. WeeWoo~!)

The dude's name is a play on the genre "Isekai"... Like, did you expect anything else from this anime? No really. Did you? This anime ain't that deep bois. Homie gets buffed and extra powers by just seeing tits.

I don't argue with any of you DxD defenders because this anime is very aware of what it is at its core. So for the guys who leave fucking thesaurus sized reviews calling me a "Shitty Author" for 'Downplaying DxD', please lick the inside of my dick hole.

Bitch.

ALSO!! I know alot of you wanna see Naruto's PoV finally and while I'd love to not show you it and continue to annoy you, it's physically impossible to continue the story and plot if I don't. Unfortunate really. Sadge. Here is Naruto and Sakura's PoV this chapter.

ON WITH THE CHAPPY! :D

"Now remember Naruto-kun, it's okay to not get it first try."

Naruto nodded his head idly, hands placed atop his knees and body completely still. His breathing evened out almost instantaneously, natural Chakra making its way through his pores and settling in his body.

An aura of serenity surrounded the teen as he called upon the Natural Chakra in the world. His entire body stilled nearly resembling a statue as he allowed the energy to circulate through his body.

Having mastered the art of Senjutsu to a degree that was unheard of even in his own home, it was always such a rush.

Naruto's senses spread throughout the entirety the Kyoto and even beyond as his Chakra flowed in synergy with the natural energy of this world.

All was normal for the first few minutes before he felt something... grip his very being.

Eyebrows furrowing for the briefest moments Naruto reached out with his Chakra, trying to grasp the energy that he could feel.

This was the same signature he had sensed during his fight with Amaterasu. It was... It was ancient. Similar to when Kaguya had taken over Madara's body.

What is this? Who is this?

Who are you, child? You do not belong here.

Naruto's eyes snapped open revealing his toad-like pupils as a distinct unknown feminine voice resounded through his mind. He surveyed the room multiple times, body tense and Chakra practically shrieking at the foreign voice and feeling he was receiving.

When he realized there was no threat in his immediate vicinity he turned inward.

"Kurama?"

"There is no one. We heard the voice as well."

Ahh... So this was going to be an external issue wasn't it?

"Any guesses?" Naruto asked with an uncharacteristically hardened edge.

The Kyuubi snorted briefly, as if almost derisive. "Judging by the amount of Natural Energy this being was capable of producing... It can only be that of Divinity."

"This is going to be an issue." He replied back.

Kurama offered the teen nothing in response but knew Naruto would understand. They had more issues at hand to deal with than some unknown Goddess throwing a tantrum.

"It is only an issue if you let it become one, Naruto-kun." Matatabi replied calmly.

"We have more things to worry about." Kurama harshly cut in.

"Neh, Kurama-kun... Don't be so mean."

"Bite me."

"Stop it. Both of you." Naruto spoke up, eyes rolling with a smile. "Whatever or whoever it is can gladly come here to solve the problem we may or may not have."

The two Bijuu did not respond nor did they trade barbs with one another.

"Now, let's focus." The blond stated, happy to have prevented Matatabi and Kurama's bickering. "I still need to master Banbutsu Sozo."

Naruto raised his hands from his knees before placing them shoulder length apart. Golden Chakra seeped through his hands as he gathered his Chakra to perform said Jutsu.

Several minutes passed by in silence and Naruto was becoming increasingly frustrated. Having the innate ability to understand Chakra to its being core was both a blessing and a curse.

It allowed him to understand the flow of Chakra, its uses, and everything from application to theory. What it didn't teach was something that was more difficult explaining than doing.

Example?

Naruto knew he could use Jinton. But he didn't know any Jutsus surrounding the Particle Style. All he did know was that he was able to harness the affinities that made up Jinton and was able to easily merge them together to create said release.

Which led him to the pinnacle of what should be Ninjutsu.

Banbutsu no Sozo.

He knew he could do it but knowing and doing were separate entities. Is this how Sasuke felt when trying to master his Rinnegan?

This was so annoying! The worst part is he knew what to do but couldn't do it. How the fuck is that even possible?!

"You're thinking to hard about it, Naruto." Kokuo softly spoke. "What is Banbutsu no Sozo?"

Slightly confused, Naruto responded with furrowed brows. "The ability to breathe life into something from nothing using Yin-Ying Release."

"Correct child." The gentle giant responded. "Then what is it that you're doing wrong?"

Naruto's face shifted in confusion as he stared at his hands, golden Chakra twisting and turning in his hands.

What was he doing wrong?

He didn't know! That was the issue here!

Upon sensing his growing frustration, Kokuo spoke again. "Calm down Naruto... Perhaps we should use something practical instead. You know how to use Mokuton yes?"

Naruto's golden hands touched together and from his actions, a tree slowly sprouted from the ground.

"Good. Now make it do something."Naruto blinked at the request before tilting his head. He stared at the tree for a moment before mentally commanding the tree to spiral into the sky, twisting and turning as it did.

"Good, Good. Now create something with it." Kokuo encouraged with a smile.

"Uhh... Like what?"

"Whatever you wish child. You can make a wooden dragon or even a golem like that one Senju fancied."

Furrowing his eyebrows, Naruto states at the wooden construct before shifting his hands into a random hand seal.

The giant tree twisted several times as the floor erupted, several other large trees and wood coalescing together to create something from his imagination.

After a few seconds of silence Naruto opened his eyes with a smile, pleased that he had created a miniature version of Kokuo.

"You flatter me, child." Kokuo praised softly, causing a grin to appear on Naruto's face. "Now all you need to do is breathe life into it."Naruto stared at the wooden construct for a few seconds before his eyes widened in realization.

Wait it was that easy?! No way!

The Psuedo Juubi Jinchuuriki clapped his hands together as he gathered Yin and Yang Chakra. Closing his eyes the boy urged his chakra to mesh together through his Mokuton creation.

When he opened his eyes, the wooden construct had moved from its previous position. It now stood directly in front of Naruto, almost mimicking the Gobi's mannerisms.

"Congratulations Naruto." Kokuo responded easily.

"It was that simple?" Naruto questioned with a tilted head, right hand coming to rest upon the giant head of the wooden Gobi. The wooden creature lowered its head, moving with its own will as it allowed the teen to pat its head.

"Simple is watering it down." Kurama snorted quietly. "The application is what makes it difficult. Banbutsu no Sozo uses the basic understandings of Yin-Ying Chakra and takes it to an abnormal degree. Giving an entity its own consciousness is something that few could ever dream to accomplish."

Naruto idly patted the wooden Gobi before responding with a single eyebrow raised. "Does it not create life?"

"That is a misunderstanding." Kurama responded without explaining. "It matters not though. Banbutsu no Sozo is not something that can just be replicated. Your understanding of Chakra is the only reason why you're able to replicate it in the first place."

"But Super Gramps created all of you... You're basically alive." Naruto commented with a lazy shrug.

"You are simplifying it heavily, Naruto-kun." Matatabi responded patiently. "We are only constructs of Chakra that have been given sentience. We are not alive like you are."Naruto pursed his lips for a moment before replying. "That sounds... demeaning." Shaking his head, he continued. "You all have feelings and are capable of rational thought. Just because you don't have to eat or sleep or anything like that doesn't make you any less alive than me."

"You are far to sweet Naruto-kun... Thank you. We all appreciate your words even if some of us refuse to say so." Matatabi responded gently with a teasing tone to her voice.

"She means you Kurama." Naruto replied with a smirk.

"Shut up, you annoying little mongrel!" Kurama snapped angrily.

"Love you too buddy."

The blond teen continued to indulge the wooden creation for a few moments before creating a single hand seal. The construct slowly froze before shifting and changing. The trees that he had created slowly lowering back into the ground, disappearing from sight.

"Papaaaaa!~"

Naruto's chest heaved as he heard Yasaka's daughter enter the room.

His heart! Ack!

Papa?! Him?!

Turning on his heel the teen spotted the small Kyuubi making her way towards him with a large grin on her face.

"Papa!" She cried happily, tails waving erratically.

ACK! CRITICAL DAMAGE!

Abort! Abort! Abort! Abort!

Before Naruto could escape his demise the tiny Kyuubi launched herself into his arms, preventing the teen from escaping.

"Kunou-chan! How many times do I have to tell you that I'm not your father?" He responded in an exasperated tone, blood staining his cheeks.

The little Kyuubi shifted her position in Naruto's arms, amber orbs staring up at the teen with adoration.

Oh Kami! She was to cute! ACKKKKK! SAVE ME!

"But you're Papa." She replied simply with a tilted head. The little Kyuubi placed her arms around the Shinobi's neck before nuzzling her face into his neck. "Papaaaaaaa~!"

Naruto would have fainted on the spot had it not been for the fact that he could potentially hurt Kunou with his actions. Face practically flaming, the teen responded.

"Yasaka and I aren't even together Kunou-chan... You can't just go around calling me that. How would your mother feel?"

Though his words said one thing, his actions proved the exact opposite. His right hand came up to support the girl as his left hand rested on her back, gently caressing the girl as a father would.

"Nnmh... Don't care..." She replied happily, enjoying the comforting feeling of Naruto and his Chakra. "Papa~... My papa."

"You do realize that you're fucked, yes?"

Kurama states unhelpfully.

"Shut up!"

There was several seconds of silence as Naruto tried desperately to control the raging blush on his face. Yasaka's daughter was far to bold!

He and Yasaka weren't even romantically involved. They were just friends! Yes, the woman incredibly beautiful and he enjoyed being around her but...

"Hoh~! Playing daddy now, Naruto-kun?"

Naruto's heart practically leaped out of his chest as Yasaka's voice resounded from the entrance of his room. Shifting carefully to avoid disturbing the woman's daughter, he spotted the woman blocking the only exit to the room.

Upon her face was a beautiful smile that reeked of mischievousness. The kind of smile he used to have when doing pranks around Konoha.

It's almost like she... planned this.

"Err... It's uh. Not what it looks like?" He questioned moreso than defended.

The Kyuubi shifted her weight on one leg, which was practically fucking sinful, and positioned one of her arms beneath her giant breasts. An amused expression graced her face as she spoke.

"It looks like you're applying for the role of Kunou's father." Naruto opened his mouth to deny the woman's words but was cut off from speaking. "She's never had the love of a father... You'd deny her that, Naruto-kun?"

THIS WAS A SETUP! A-A RUSE! HE WAS BEING MANIPULATED!

"N-No! Of course not! I'd nev-" He was cut off once more as Yasaka responded with a sly smile.

"Good~! Take good care of my daughter." There was heavy emphasis on those words. "Do a good enough job and perhaps you can become her real father, hmm?" Without another word the gorgeous Yokai exited the room with a sway to her hips.

Naruto wasn't ashamed to admit he had been staring directly at her ass. Denying it would make him a liar and he was many things, but a liar wasn't one of them.

Have you seen those hips?!

No shot. He had already lost.

"You are fucking whipped."

"SHUT UP KURAMA!"


Sakura's eyes roamed along the document she was reading before hearing a gentle knock on her door. The pink haired teen closed the document before slowly rising from her seat and heading to the entrance of her room.

Upon opening her door she was surprised to see the Leader of the Yokai Faction. Normally Yasaka would send a servant to retrieve her if she wished to speak.

This was new.

"Yasaka-sama." Sakura greeted with a minor bow. "Is there something I can do for you?"

The blonde Kyuubi offered the girl a small smile before raising a hand. "No formalities Sakura. Is it ok if I come in?"

The pinkette furrowed her eyebrows for a moment before opening the door wider and allowing the woman into her new home. "Would you like some tea?"

Yasaka stepped through the entrance with practiced ease and grace as she replied. "Tea would be nice, thank you."

The Medic said nothing and went to accomplish her task as Yasaka took a seat on the couch in the living room.

Several minutes of silence passed before Sakura made her way into the living room carrying a tray with multiple snacks and two cups of freshly brewed tea.

Upon setting the tray down, Sakura took a seat in the recliner opposite to the couch and offered a smile to Yasaka. "So, what brings you here Yasaka?"

The Yokai leader said nothing at first, choosing to savor the delicious tea of the medic. She was quiet for a few more moments before focusing upon Sakura.

"Tell me...," She began slowly, a calculative expression on her face. "Has Naruto ever been intimate with another woman?"

Sakura, having been ready to take a sip of her tea, froze at the question. She was silent for nearly an entire minute before clearing her throat quietly. Setting the cup back on the tray she returned Yasaka's stare with a curious one.

"Uh... Well, not to be rude but why are you asking me this?"

The Kyuubi smiled slyly as she held her cup of tea. "Humor me, hmm?"

The Medic continued to stare at the woman for a moment before shrugging her shoulders and taking a sip of her tea. "To my knowledge? No. But there was a point in time where he disappeared from the village on a training trip for 3 years with his Sensei, who at the time was renowned for being a massive pervert."

The Kyuubi chuckled at the statement before taking a sip of her tea. She held the cup just in front of her mouth hiding the smile on her face. "He is not incredibly subtle with his gaze."

Sakura blinked at the statement before glancing towards the tray on the table. "Subtlety isn't Naruto's M.O. It never has been though, to be fair." Returning her gaze on the blonde woman, she continued. "I'm not an expert on the subject considering I chased after a childhood crush for several years, risking even my life and career just to get said man to notice me... I'd suggest that you be the one to make the first move. Naruto certainly won't be the one to do it."

Yasaka chuckled dryly at the woman's advice. "I figured that to be the case. He is very dense."

A snort was Sakura's response. "You'd have to hit him over the head with a brick that said 'Please fuck me!' on it to get him to understand."

Had Yasaka taken a sip of her tea she would have most certainly spit it out at the girl's comment. Instead, she settled for an amused snort.

"I fear that even that would not be enough."

Sakura shrugged her shoulders before placing her cup of tea on the tray. "He's changed alot. Dense and sometimes childish, but he knows what he wants... You just have to push him. He didn't have parents growing up and getting him to understand basic social cues was a job in itself. Trust me, you're better off just swinging for it... I doubt you'll miss. He seems really infatuated with you."

Yasaka's eyes slowly trailed away from the teen before settling on the tray of snacks and tea. She reached for one of the snacks on the tray, idly recalling the statement Sakura had thrown out when speaking about Naruto.

"Mhm... And what's this about you risking your life and career?" Yasaka asked while munching on her pastry.

Sakura's eyes widened for a moment as pink dashed her cheeks. She was silent for a moment before clearing her throat. "Well, that's uh... Ahem. That's a story for another time..."

The Kyuubi smirked as she replied. "Ara ara~... There's a story thereeeeeee."

Sakura's left eye twitched as her blush deepened. "It isn't that deep."

"Doesn't sound like it~." The Kyuubi responded while shifting her head side to side.

The pinkette was silent for several moments as she stewed in her embarrassment regarding her actions due to her crush/love/obsession with Sasuke.

She had rationalized these feelings long ago and questioned her decisions after the War had ended. After all, she had alot of time to think when the Jutsu failed to bring back humanity.

Sakura had come to hate and love herself during those 6 grueling months. Everything she had ever done in her life that led her to facing down Kaguya with the rest of Team 7.

Her actions in the Academy when she was a child.

Her actions when she was a Kunoichi for Konoha.

Her decisions being a Kunoichi.

Her feelings...

Everything.

She had grown to hate herself.

Looking back on all her choices, knowing that she accomplished very little and done very little had triggered some sort of epiphany.

Her thoughts got prohibitively darker and darker when surrounding Sasuke and the feelings and actions she had made.

She did have a crush on Sasuke. But she had fantasized from the very beginning about what life could be like with the "cool" kid. She was just a child, who could really blame her?

The fault fell on her when she refused to correct these actions and solve these issues. Yes, Kakashi could have curbed such thoughts but it also wasn't his job to fully change her thoughts on life and what it meant to be a Kunoichi.

Kakashi could have beaten her to an inch of her life every single day for a year all while stating that Sasuke would never love her and she'd still have believed him to be lying.

She had been delusional during her time as a Genin and seeing all those deaths when Pein invaded Konoha had broke something in her.

A medic knew that not every person could be saved.

Tsunade certainly knew that. Hell, even Ino knew that. It just seemed that she herself was incapable of learning these important lessons.

Deaths by the thousands only followed during the 4th Shinobi War and she had learned the true futility of human life and what it meant to be a Shinobi.

While Sasuke and Naruto had understood that sentiment they both interpreted it differently.

"A Shinobi is one who endures."

Sakura had rarely endured hardships and actively chose to downplay the life of a Shinobi. She was incredibly lucky that she hadn't died early on and even more lucky that she was still alive.

It took time to accept this and even more to forgive herself. Her change had been subtle but not completely hidden.

Kakashi and Sasuke took notice almost immediately. Naruto? Ehh... Not so much but she doubted that would change.

She was no longer that delusional child that she was in the Elemental Nations. Yes, she was still incredibly aggressive and forward but delusional? Never again.

Life had quite literally slapped the shit out of her.

And she was humbled for it.

Sakura sighed quietly before slowly rising to her feet, garnering a raised eyebrow from Yasaka. She ignored the woman's question and made her way to her liquor cabinet.

Like Sensei like student.

The pinkette pulled out a large bottle of alcohol before making her way back to Yasaka. Taking her seat back in the recliner, Sakura spun the cap off the liquor before placing the ceramic to her lips.

Yasaka watched on in muted shock as the girl swallowed mouthful after mouthful of the liquor. "Oh my..."

Sakura finally lowered the bottle revealing that she had drank half of the entire bottle. A long and heavy exhale left her body followed by an on obnoxiously loud belch.

"Where do I even start?" She commented moreso to herself than anything. Twirling the bottle in her hands as she thought for where to start, Sakura burped quietly.

"Well, let's see... It probably started when people made fun of my forehead... Cus it's kinda like big, ya know?" Sakura gestured with the bottle towards Yasaka who possessed raised eyebrows. "And I didn't have any friends when I was younger... Cus of my big forehead. Apparently I blinded the other kids? Or something. Anyway, whatever. Not even that important. I made a friend though in Naruto but like, when we were younger my mom and dad told me to stay away from him cus apparently he was a demon or whatever and like, I didn't really know what they were talking about but I went along with it anyway. So, we were friends but not really."

The pinkette exhaled heavily before placing the ceramic bottle against her lips and downing even more of the alcohol.

A frown marred Yasaka's face and just as she was about to speak, Sakura removed the now empty bottle from her lips. She released another impressive belch before throwing the bottle behind her, ignoring the way it shattered against the wooden floor.

"Yeah so... We weren't really friends and like I hated him. I met this girl named Ino and she became my best friend and rival and like rival is a loose term because we were absolutely shitty Kunoichi. Like, dieting and all this other dumb shit. Not important but like, kinda important or whatever." Another burp. "And that's where I met Sasuke... Ahh~... He was so cool and dreamy and all this other childish shit that I thought about when I was a kid."

"Anyway, I loved him or something and like, his whole entire family was murdered by his brother but like, I'm 12 years old and I don't even know what that means. I thought he was just cool and all that. Anyway, later on I almost get killed several times during missions, I pretty much do nothing on missions and Sasuke and Naruto have to bail me out all the time. They've always been strong or whatever."

Another obnoxious belch releasing from the rather petite woman. She proceeded to wipe her mouth while shaking her head, continuing to ramble.

"Fast forward like a couple months or whatever and like, our Village hosted this tournament where we fight other Shinobi for the chance to receive promotions and become higher ranks. But like, you can die and it's supposed to be about strength and all that or whatever. I didn't really understand it. I almost died about... 13 times. But that's not really important because it was around that time that Sasuke got bit on the neck by a rogue Shinobi from our Village and it gave him alot of power and kinda made him evil and stuff. So there I was, about to fight Ino-"

"Sakura. Please stop." Yasaka interrupted with furrowed eyebrows. "I think it's best if you rest."

The pinkette tilted her head while staring into Yasaka's eyes. She was quiet for a moment as her heavily flushed face sparkled. "You're really pretty."

An amused smile formed on the Yokai's face. "Thank you."

"I can see why Naruto wants to fuck you."

Yasaka's expression went flat. "And that's enough out of you. Off to bed you go." The Yokai began to aid the pinkette to her feet before guiding her to the couch to lay down. After properly laying the drunken girl down, Yasaka spoke with a raised eyebrow.

"I had a mission for you today but... It can wait."

And Sakura was snoring.

Ok.

Cool.

Rolling her eyes, Yasaka exited the room while rubbing her temples.

What in the hell just happened?


Sasuke felt the stares aimed at his back but ignored them. Why? Because if he ignored them for long enough then they'd eventually disappear.

That or he'd have to kill said individuals who were staring.

It was a toss up really. 50/50.

Sadly, it was not meant to be.

"Nya~... So what's Kyoto like Sasuke?" Kuroka asked while saddling up beside the ebony haired teen.

Ignore it. Just keep walking.

"You can't ignore me, Sasuke-kuuuuuuun~!"

Can and will.

Silence reigned supreme for all of 30 seconds before Kuroka's fingers traveled to a destination that Sasuke didn't authorize.

No one could blame him for karate chopping Kuroka in her neck, effectively knocking her out. Though he wasn't entirely heartless as her unconscious body was easily hefted onto his back.

An incredibly smooth and seamless transition that had the remaining members of Team Vali in shock.

Though to be fair, it shouldn't have been that surprising. The guy practically one shot Vali. And them.

Cold hearted powerful bastard.

"I think she's good for you." Kakashi offhandedly commented, nose buried in his new hentai Manga.

"I think you should mind your business." Sasuke snapped back.

"Mah, Sasuke. No need to be so rude." The Jonin replied amusedly.

"Fuck off." The Uchiha replied placidly.

"Err uh... E-Excuse me..." The gentle voice of Le Fay piped up beside Sasuke, grabbing his attention almost immediately. When the Uchiha's eyes landed on her it took every ounce of her effort to not cringe away. "W-Will Kuroka-san be okay?"

The Rinnegan wielder stared at the petite girl for several seconds before turning his head ahead from her. "Yes."

He said nothing else and that was certainly the best outcome for Le Fay who didn't mind having as little interaction with the teen as possible.

"Did you have to knock her out though?" Bikou piped out from behind the group.

"Do you wish to be permanently silenced?" Sasuke replied back just as easily. When silence greeted his question, Sasuke nodded his head. "That's what I thought. Shut up."

Only a few more minutes and he'd be able to escape from these idiots... But then he'd have to deal with Naruto.

Glancing back at the annoying group, Sasuke pondered his options.

Smoking hot cat girl or loud optimistic blond teen?

Was there even an option?

"Good luck Kakashi." Sasuke immediately disappeared in a burst of speed.

The Jonin glanced at Sasuke's previous spot for a moment before sweeping his gaze to the remaining members of Vali's former team.

Why?

He had even taken the kitty... Hmm. Perhaps he was already smitten with her. That or he wanted to avoid Naruto's questions.

Definetly the latter over the former.

Fine. He'd take the bullet and report to Yasaka. Sasuke owed him though and he'd be sure to cash that one in.


Sasuke touched down in front of his new home, idly shifting Kuroka's weight atop his back.

"Nya~... Why'd you have to hit me so hard?" Kuroka groaned out pitifully, rubbing the back of her neck.

The ebony haired teen rolled his eyes before placing his hand atop the knob of his new home. He stopped for a brief second as he sensed a familiar presence nearing his position.

"Ahhh... Saaaasuuukeee..."

The Uchiha blinked at the woman's voice before slowly turning his attention towards his old teammate. His nose detected the distinct stench of alcohol as he took in her slightly haggard appearance.

"Sakura?" His eyes roamed along her body and he ignored the way that Kuroka shifted atop his back, curiosity burning in her golden orbs. "Are you... okay?"

The pinkette tilted her head as her emerald orbs strayed towards the Yokai on Sasuke's back. She stared for several seconds before a sad smile formed on her face.

"Ahhh..." Sakura feigned confidence she didn't truly feel. "I have... had far too much to drink." She rubbed her eyes for a moment before sniffing quietly. "Where are my manners? I'm Sakura... I used to be Sasuke's teammate. Who are you?"

Kuroka stared at the pink haired girl, sensing the incredulous amount of Chakra resting in the girl's forehead. Whatever that gem or tattoo was... It was storing a mountain's worth of Chakra inside of it.

And considering the girl's physique... This girl was a fighter and even though she was clearly inebriated, the hairs on the back of Kuroka's neck stood at attention.

Twin tails swaying back and forth, Kuroka offered the girl a sly smile. "I am Kuroka. It is nice to meet a friend of Sasuke-kun's, Nya~."

Recognition dawned on Sakura's eyes for a moment as she heard the girl's name. "Ahhh... The rogue Devil Yokai..." She trailed off as a lazy smile bloomed on her face. "Welcome to Kyoto~! I hope you enjoy your stay... Yasaka-sama will want to see you eventually..."

There was an... uncomfortable feeling in the air. Kuroka couldn't quite pinpoint the reasoning but it definetly dealt with Sakura and Sasuke... Or perhaps Sakura and herself.

Did the girl have feelings for him? Was she being viewed as a obstacle? Or perhaps maybe Sakura just didn't like her.

"Is there something you needed, Sakura?" Sasuke commented in a softer tone than Kuroka would have expected from the teen.

Sakura's glossy eyes shifted from the Yokai to the Uchiha as she briefly swayed on her feet. She was silent for a scant few moments before smiling.

"I wanted to talk to you... But it can wait." She tried, and failed, to hide the quiet burp that escaped her lips. "Have a... Have a good night." Without another word the pinkette sashayed away with a lazy gait.

Sasuke watched his former teammate walk away with furrowed brows before glancing back to his home.

"That was... odd, Nya." Kuroka summed up perfectly.

The Uchiha said nothing in response as he shook his head before opening his door making his way into his home.

"Such a gentleman, Nya~!" Kuroka teased with a saucy grin.

Sasuke rolled his eyes at the response but didn't bother hiding the incredibly small smirk on his face.


Naruto sighed quietly as he gently shifted Kunou's sleeping form in his arms. The little Kyuubi was currently passed out in his arms as he slowly trekked through Yasaka's large compound.

Every Yokai he passed by either cooed at the scene or gave him polite smiles and greetings. The embarrassment had long since faded and he felt rather... happy.

He had been drifting for awhile ever since landing in this new world. It was still a bitter pill to swallow that his home had been destroyed...

He lacked purpose now. Lacked a goal.

Well, a goal that could compare to being the Hokage that is. He had dreamed of the moment ever since he was a child.

He'd never achieve it now... And it was a tough thing to process for him. He was just glad his family was here with him. He didn't want to know what would have happened had he entered this world alone...

Those dark and depressing thoughts drifted away as Kunou groaned softly into his arms.

"Pa...papaaaaa.~" She mewled cutely. Her tails unconsciously wrapped around his torso and waist as she snuggled deeper into his embrace.

Naruto's cerulean orbs softened as he gazed at the young Yokai. His right hand slowly moved on its own accord, resting upon her blonde locks. The little girl leaned into his touch as he gently stroked her hair.

"This is your goal now."

Naruto acknowledged Kurama's statement but didn't respond. He didn't need to. Kurama already knew.

"You'll protect it like you did us."

The blond Jinchuuriki idly nodded at Kurama's statement, parting the girl's thick strands and softly rubbing her pudgy cheeks.

Naruto sensed her presence but he was far more focused on his actions than acknowledging Yasaka and her soft gaze. Rude? Possibly.

But...

"She adores you."

Naruto's eyes shift away from the young Kyuubi before settling on Yasaka. "Yeah... Yeah I know." He replies softly.

Noticing his slightly off tone, Yasaka glides to his side. Subconsciously leaning onto the teen, she began to stroke her daughter's head.

"Does it make you nervous?" She questioned after a few moments of silence.

The Jinchuuriki was quiet for a few seconds before pursing his lips. "I've never really had a little sister or a little brother, nevermind a daughter..."

Yasaka's eyes left her daughter as she gazed at the young teen beside her. A soft smile settled on her face as she leaned her head on the boy's shoulder. "Take it one step at a time. There's no need to rush."

Naruto smiled softly before closing his eyes and stroking the young Yokai's head. "I don't have a choice in the matter do I?"

"Nope~!" Yasaka immediately responded with a satisfied smile.

The teen chuckled at the woman's response before tentatively brushing his hand across Yasaka's own. Before Naruto could even think to pull his hand back, Yasaka snatched it and held onto it.

"You're mine now~!"


Sakura's glossy eyes stared into the mirror, gazing upon her reflection with a despondent expression. Her pink crop top sweater laid on her bed, her yoga pants strewn on the edge of her bed.

A modest-looking black bra holding her rather small breasts up coupled with her lacy black thong covered her intimate areas.

Dainty fingers trailed along her toned abdomen, tracing the rather hardened muscles and small amount of scars on her stomach.

Her fingers slowly trailed north, idly caressing her modest sized breasts before traveling further north. Gazing into the mirror with a hollow gaze, Sakura gripped her biceps. Her arms flexed involuntarily, biceps bulging showing off her rather impressive muscles and chest.

The pinkette twirled on the tips of her toes, back now facing the mirror. She turned her head towards the direction of the reflection, spotting the odd and rather small scars upon her toned back.

Sakura's dainty hands slowly curved around her body, fingers dancing upon the toned muscles before eventually cupping her rather supple rear.

Confirmed : dump truck.

Nodding to herself in satisfaction she eventually twirled back to face her reflection. Head tilted and eyes glossy, Sakura spoke quietly yet firmly.

"I'm enough."

AN: This chapter was more or less filler and all that. I wanted to write more scenes and some other shit but like, too much work.

See ya in the next chappy mongos!
