Hey, this is the 54th chapter. So, I've started my degree course, so I probably won't be able to update as much as I did. But I'll do my best to update as soon as I can.

Anyways, here it is.

XXX

The next morning, in the Namikaze compound, more specifically, the garden linked to the compound.

Yui, Hikari and Suguha ran around, the little girl chasing after the two elder women with several small eagles and dragons, while Kirito, Sinon and Asuna sat by a side watching them.

Nagato and Konan were out on their own mission with Itachi and Yugao, so the six were on their own in the compound.

Fortunately, the garden was self-maintained through the seals Kushina and Minato placed when they were alive.

So Kirito and the girls didn't need to tend to the plants much, hell, even the weeds were automatically cut off. So that meant they didn't need to do anything.

Kirito smiled as they watched Yui chase after the summons and their respective summoners, "Yui... She's having fun."

Sinon nodded, "Yeah, she seems to be fitting in quite nicely."

Asuna nodded, "You know, Yui-chan is a being of chakra, right? Will she grow?"

Isobu answered from her seal, speaking aloud, "Probably not. Normally, chakra constructs like us, who attain a physical form, are able to change our forms to suit what we like. Though most of us Bijuu just don't do it cuz its just way too much work."

Asuna nodded, "I see..."

Kirito chuckled, "Well, that means Yui will stay as she is for as long as she wants."

Sinon smiled and nodded. The little girl was just too cute, and she doubted anyone wanted the girl to change.

Then, Kirito blinked as he caught a faint flash. Then, all of a sudden, Yui fell to the ground screaming while holding her chest.

Everyone quickly ran over to her. Kirito asked, "Yui?! What's wrong?!"

The girl clutched her chest and gasped, "It hurts!"

Hikari's eyes widened as she sensed Yui's chakra skyrocket, "Her chakra..."

Asuna, Sinon and Suguha nodded worriedly. Kirito frowned, "Why would her chakra increase so much?"

The answer came from Hikari's clone which appeared on its own, and Kurama spoke, "This chakra... No doubt bout it, its from Aincrad."

Hikari's eyes widened, "Aincrad?"

Choumei-S nodded and was about to say something when Suguha also fell to her knees, holding her stomach in pain. The half of the Seven Tails' eyes widened, "My chakra... Its returning?!"

Kurama frowned with Hikari's face, "Hmm... I sense chakra flowing in to Suguha and Yui... And this is from Aincrad..."

After a short while, Suguha let out a breath as she shakily stood up, Sinon helping her up, but Yui was still holding her chest in pain.

Hikari asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Choumei-S replied aloud from Suguha's seal, "Her body can't handle the chakra. I had seven tails worth of chakra originally, so all the chakra did was replenish my lost half... Suguha can probably access my full Bijuu mode now."

Kirito asked, "Then... What will happen to her?"

Kurama answered, "While she is essentially a Bijuu, Yui has a limit with her current body. Our chakra gradually increased, that's why Choumei and Suguha are fine, and that's why their situation ended quickly... But from what I sense, this is a massive influx of it for Yui, possibly worth 8 tails."

Kurama let out a breath, "Best case scenario, she dies. Worst case scenario, the chakra in her go haywire and explodes... And we all die."

Asuna frowned, "Then...what can we do?"

Kurama closed his eyes, "We seal her. That should cut off the chakra flowing into her. It should also allow her chakra to stabilise itself."

He glanced around, "But... We can't seal her into an inanimate object, nor an animal or a plant... Kirito, you'll have to seal her in your body."

Kirito narrowed his eyes as he looked at Yui, "There won't be any negative side effects, right Kurama?"

The Bijuu nodded, "Of course not. As far as I know, this is basically the same as sealing a Bijuu into a human. Your body is already accustomed to Bijuu chakra thanks to Hikari, Suguha, Asuna and Sinon being Jinchurikii, who all leak our chakra everyday in small quantities. You'll both be fine."

He also added, "Besides, your body should be strong enough now."

Hikari sighed, "Fine... Let's hurry."

Kirito quickly took off his shirt and sat down beside Yui while Hikari stood behind him. Asuna, Sinon and Suguha also stood beside them as Hikari got to work.

But before they started, Kurama said in Hikari's clone, "Wait. As of now, I doubt a normal Hakke no Fuin will work. I'll guide you with one of the seals I learned from the old man."

The blonde seal master raised an eyebrow but nodded at his look, letting him return to her seal.

Then she quickly unsealed her supplies and started drawing a Hakke Fuin on Kirito's chest, making two seal-less clones to make seals to stabilise Yui's chakra.

After five minutes, with Suguha, Asuna and Sinon comforting Yui, Hikari finished the final stroke and placed her left hand on Yui's head, and her right hand on Kirito's chest, "Tenchi no Fuin!" (天地の封印)

Immediately, Yui glowed and took on a blue glow as she was transferred into Kirito's body. After a short moment, Kirito glowed as the seals Hikari painted on his chest glowed, rearranging themselves until they formed a seal.

(Imagine Seal of Destruction from Garo : Makai Senki, except with a tear drop symbol right above it.)

As the seal formed, Kirito let out a small breath as he felt as if he had gained something. His chakra levels increased, and he could feel a small pull on his chest.

Hikari nodded as she placed her brush down, "Done. Can you hear Yui, Kirito-kun?"

Kirito nodded as Yui's voice popped up in his mind, "I feel better now! Thank you, Papa, Hikari-mama!"

The young man said, "She feels better now. Its a success."

The girls all sighed in relief before a small ball of light shot out of Kirito's chest, revealing Yui, but much smaller, with wings and wearing a light pink dress.

Sinon blinked, "Yui? What's with that size?"

The young girl grinned, "Now that I'm sealed in Papa, I have access to his technique with his wings! Also, apparently I also gained a lot of data... Or information, from Aincrad's data bases, since I received its chakra. So I can now shrink to move easily."

Kurama nodded as he spoke in Hikari's mind, "That's one of the seals my old man taught me. Well, more like I learned it from his library... But it allows a being of chakra to freely enter and exit a vessel as they please. No idea why he had it though."

Hikari just smiled, 'At least it came in handy for this. Thank you, Kurama.'

The bijuu smirked, "Hmph, that little twerp has grown on me. Besides, she's your daughter, isn't she?"

Hikari smiled and nodded before she blinked as Yui yelled, glaring and pointing at her gut, "Stupid fox! I'm not a twerp!"

Kurama just grumbled, "Damn I forgot she can hear us..."

Hikari just giggled as the others looked in confusion. The blonde saw that and explained, "Kurama said Yui was a twerp, and she could hear him."

The others just oh'd as the other Bijuu laughed at the expense of their eldest sibling being called stupid by a girl.

Yui then blinked before she said, looking at Kirito, "By the way, Papa, can you come into your mindscape?"

Kirito blinked as Yui vanished, returning back to his seal. The swordsman scratched his cheek, "Erm... How do I do that actually?"

The man could feel the girl puff her cheeks inside the seal before she said in his mind, "Just sit down and meditate."

Kirito sighed and sat down cross legged. Then he closed his eyes, clearing his mind of everything, momentarily ignoring everything around him.

Then, he felt a rough breeze. The man opened his eyes and saw an area divided in two, one full of life, the other devoid of it. (basically the area from Kirito's version of Unlimited Blade Works)

He looked down to the left as he felt a small hand slip into his own, and Kirito saw Yui in her normal size standing beside him.

Kirito asked, "Yui? Where are we?"

The little girl replied, "We are in your mindscape, Papa. This is the representation of what your mind and soul is like."

Kirito nodded, "I see... But, its strange..."

Yui nodded, "Your mind is... unique. But that's not why I called you here."

Kirito raised an eyebrow, "Hm?"

The girl pointed to the line separating the two areas. Then, directly above the line, a sword appeared, floating in the air.

The sword was a broad sword of sorts. It was slightly longer than the Kubikiribocho, with blue lines running down both sides of the blade. At the guard, there was also a small orb in it.

More importantly, the sword was pulsing with power, and Kirito knew it wasn't a simple sword.

Yui said, "It appeared immediately after I was sealed in you."

Kirito nodded and slowly stepped towards it. Then, he reached up to grab the hilt. But right at an inch from the sword, the blade suddenly glowed.

Kirito's eyes widened as he felt some sort of force send him flying. The man quickly flipped and landed on the ground, regaining his balance.

The man narrowed his eyes as Yui ran to him, "What was that?"

The girl turned and stared at the sword, "It seems to be a barrier around it."

She then turned to Kirito, "Don't worry about it, Papa, I'll study it when you sleep, and I'll tell you if I have anything."

Kirito nodded before he smiled, "Thank you... But, the way you talk, it's as if you've aged quite a bit."

Yui grinned and placed both hands on her hips, "When I received the chakra from Aincrad, I also received most of the data from it. Though I'm still processing most of the data, it increased my vocabulary and speech patterns."

Kirito chuckled and ruffled the girl's hair, "I see. Good for you then."

Yui just beamed at her father before Kirito vanished from the mindscape. Then, the young girl turned to the sword again, frowning slightly as she saw the silhouette of a familiar older man before she turned and walked away.

Back in the real world, Kirito opened his eyes to see the girls' faces right in front of him. The man jumped slightly and asked, "W-what's wrong?"

Asuna smiled, "Nothing, it's just, you looked very at peace, so we couldn't help it."

Hikari, Suguha and Sinon all nodded in agreement, as Kirito sweatdropped. The man asked, "Erm, how long was I out?"

Sinon answered, "Around 10 minutes or so."

Suguha then asked, "So, what did Yui want?"

Kirito nodded, "Yeah, well, nothing much exactly, she just wanted to show me the changes in my mindscape."

Then, before they could continue, everyone heard a loud growl, and they turned to the source of it. Hikari laughed and blushed in embarrassment as Kirito sighed, "Well, its around noon. Let's get some lunch then."

The girls laughed as Hikari blushed harder before they headed out for lunch.

(linebreak)

An hour later, the group of six (Kirito, the four girls, and Yui) walked out of an average restaurant satisfied.

As they walked, they saw Kakashi walking to them. Hikari smiled and greeted, "Kakashi-sensei."

The cyclops eye-smiled in response, "Hello, everyone. Good to see you all here, I was looking for all of you."

Kirito asked, curious, "What's up?"

Kakashi nodded, "Hokage-sama has a mission for us. I already have a clone looking for Sasuke and Sakura, so we should head for the Hokage tower."

A short walk later, Kirito, Asuna, Hikari, Sinon, Suguha and Kakashi were in the Hokage's office. Hikari asked, "So, what mission do you have for us?"

Tsunade sighed, "I'll tell you when Sasuke and Sakura arrive."

As if on cue, the door opened to reveal Sasuke and Sakura, but more importantly, the two were holding hands, with Sasuke having a light blush on his face.

Kirito smirked, "Ho, so you finally asked her, Sasuke."

Sasuke glared at his friend lightly, "Shut up, you have a fuckin harem."

Kirito just laughed as Sakura sighed, "Well, Sasuke-kun finally asked me yesterday, so we were on our first date..."

Tsunade nodded, "Yes, I apologise. I know we just finished things with Aincrad, and truthfully you all deserve at least a day off. But this is important, and all of you are the best to handle this."

Everyone turned their attention to Tsunade, and the Hokage spoke, "Your mission is split into two parts. I'll start on the first one."

The woman gained an annoyed look as she spoke, "A few days ago, the sole son of one of the companies working with our village came to visit. That company is one of our agents in getting missions for civilians outside of Konoha, and Hi no Kuni in general."

Tsunade sighed, "The owner of that company, Nobuyuki Ryoutaro, is a great man. Sadly, his son, Nobuyuki Sugou, is not. Two days ago, Ryoutaro requested a team to escort his son back."

The woman frowned, "Apparently, Sugou has offended quite a number of people, so his father wanted us to protect his son on his journey to Nami no Kuni, where one of his ships are."

Kirito nodded, "I see. But there's more to this, isn't there?"

Tsunade nodded, "Sugou demanded a team of kunoichi escort him back. His father had warned me of his tendencies to harass women, if he finds them nice, he'll try to woo them. If its the opposite, he'll do whatever it takes to get them out of his sight."

The woman sighed, "To be honest, Asuna, Sinon, Suguha, your team is the only kunoichi team we have. Yugao is on a mission, and sadly, this company is quite important for our village. Now, Ryoutaro doesn't like his son's attitude, but Sugou is still his son. So we have our hands tied."

Tsunade looked at everyone of them, "Hikari, Asuna, Suguha and Sinon will be guarding Sugou to Nami no Kuni. Kirito, Kakashi, Sakura and Sasuke will stay in the shadows and watch their backs. That man is definitely harmless, but I'm not gonna risk anything. Right, Kirito?"

The swordsman nodded, not liking this mission already. Tsunade let out a breath, "So, Kirito will stand in for Hikari in Team Kakashi, and Hikari will stand in for Yugao in Team Yugao. The first part of your mission, is to guard Nobuyuki Sugou on his way back to Nami no Kuni."

Everyone nodded, before Kakashi asked, "What about the second part?"

The Hokage nodded, "Just a few hours ago, I received intel from Jiraiya about one of Orochimaru's hideouts near Nami no Kuni. Its an island. After you finish escorting Sugou to Nami no Kuni, meet up with Jiraiya, and help him with whatever he needs."

Everyone nodded before Tsunade finished, "You leave tomorrow, get some rest."

The two teams nodded and left the room, leaving Tsunade to her thoughts. The woman looked out to the village, 'Well, I hope they don't kill him in the process...'

(linebreak)

The next day, the two teams were standing in front of one of the more extravagant hotels in Konoha, and they were all sporting deadpan looks.

The reason?

A very, very luxurious looking cart was parked in front of the main entrance, while another not-so-luxurious-but-still-very-expensive-looking cart was parked behind it, this one filled with items, most likely souvenirs.

Kirito, Kakashi and Sasuke all shared a sigh. Kirito said, "This is ridiculous."

Sinon shot him an annoyed look, "At least you won't have to deal with this for the whole trip... You're all staying in the shadows."

Sakura smiled, "Well... It shouldn't be that bad... Right?"

As if on cue, a man walked out of the hotel. He wore a pair of glasses, with his hair slicked back. The man also wore a very formal suit, and he was flanked by two maids on each side.

Sasuke just shook his head with a sigh, "You just had to jinx it."

Sakura just smiled forcedfully as the man approached them. The man said with a smile, "Ah, you must be the team Hokage-sama sent for me, my name is Nobuyuki Sugou, a pleasure to meet you."

Then he noticed Kirito, Sasuke and Kakashi and frowned, "But I'm pretty sure I requested a team of only kunoichi, why are they here?"

The girls all resisted the urge to facepalm at the blatant change of tone before Kirito said, "We're just accompanying them, we have our own mission."

Sugou looked at them, obviously not caring a bit about them, "Whatever, just get on your way."

The man turned to the team of girls with a smile, "Now, shall we get going?"

The four girls resisted the urge to facepalm again as Asuna nodded, "Okay, let's go."

Sugou nodded with a smile, though he pushed down a frown as he saw Kirito kiss the four girls before they left for the gates. Sadly for Sugou, all of the people present were ninja and easily saw his slight change of expression.

As the two carts, accompanied by the four kunoichi, headed for the gates. Sasuke said with a smirk, "I think that guy hates you now, Kirito. You saw his look."

Kirito nodded, "Yeah, but I won't worry much. If he tries anything, he'll lose the one thing that makes him a man, and I won't need to do a thing."

Kakashi chuckled, "True. That guy has four of the strongest kunoichi from our village guarding him."

Sakura frowned slightly as she glanced at the carts, "Though... That man... I felt dirty when he looked at me."

Kakashi nodded, "Let's just hope Sugou doesn't get himself killed then. Let's go."

The four nodded and headed for the gates, before quickly vanishing into the trees, or in Kirito's case, flying to the trees.

Back with the girls, they were standing in a spread out formation. Asuna and Hikari walked beside the first cart, while Sinon and Suguha walked with the second cart.

As they walked, Sugou peeked out from the cart and looked at Hikari, "I'm sorry, I didn't get your name, miss."

Hikari glanced at the man briefly before she focused on the front, then she answered, "My name is Namikaze Hikari, Nobuyuki-san."

Sugou nodded with a smile, "Then you're the late Yondaime Hokage's daughter, is that right?"

Hikari nodded, "Yes."

The man then said, "I feel honoured, having a kunoichi of your calibre escort me."

The Namikaze nodded, "Its my job."

Sugou frowned lightly, since it was pretty obvious Hikari didn't want to talk to him. Though the man had to admit, Hikari was quite appealing, but he also knew how strong the girl was.

Sugou went back into his cart before he turned to Asuna, peeking out from the window. The man smiled, "I'm sorry, miss, but I didn't get your name, did I?"

Asuna glanced at him and nodded, seeing no harm in telling him, "I'm Yuki Asuna, is there anything wrong?"

Sugou shook his head, "No, I was merely curious. Why is a woman like you a ninja?"

The girl replied, not looking away from the road, "Because I want to protect those important to me, that's all."

The man frowned for a moment, which didn't go unnoticed by Asuna, before he said, "I don't think someone you should be fighting out here. How about you become my personal guard?"

Asuna frowned slightly, "Sorry, but I'll have to decline."

Sugou's eyes widened slightly in surprise, normally no one would deny an offer from him, "Why? Even if you're a guard, it will only be in name! You can have everything you want! Money, gold, EVERYTHING!"

Asuna repressed the urge to sigh. It was pretty obvious what Sugou was aiming for. The girl could practically feel him mentally undressing her, and most likely the other girls too. It made her feel disgusted, but it was still a mission.

Asuna answered indifferently, "I already have everything I want, Nobuyuki-san. Besides, I'm quite happy with what I have now, but thank you for your offer."

Sugou mentally seethed. He was pretty suresure that Kirito was the reason she was rejecting his offer. The man couldn't understand, why would four beautiful girls agree to share someone like him. What did that low class mongrel have?

Sugou took a breath and calmed himself down before he continued trying to get Hikari and Asuna for himself.

Meanwhile, at the second cart. Suguha sighed as she saw Sugou trying to woo Asuna and Hikari, but repeatedly getting rejected. Suguha thought, 'He sure is persistent... At least I'm not guarding that cart.'

Sinon also had the same line of thoughts, grateful that she was behind them, while still feeling sorry for her sisters for having to deal with their client.

At the same time, on the trees nearby, Kirito frowned as he saw Sugou trying to get Asuna and Hikari's attention. The swordsman said, "That guy is really annoying..."

Kakashi sighed, "Its part of the mission, we'll have to deal with it."

The younger man frowned, "A silencing seal wouldn't hurt."

Sakura sighed, "Kirito-san, I know you're worried for them, but I'm pretty sure they can handle anything that pops up. They aren't weak."

Kirito chuckled, "Oh I know they're not weak. Far from it. But, I'm still a guy, you know?"

Sasuke nodded in agreement, "Exactly, I'd be the same if someone tried to get close to you, Sakura. How would you feel if some girl came over and asked me out?"

A small ball of light shot out of Kirito's chest, and Yui nodded, shouting in agreement, "Yeah! Only Papa is allowed to be close with all my Mamas!"

Sakura sighed and nodded, "I get it... But we're not allowed to do anything."

The two younger men just sighed before Kakashi asked, "By the way, Kirito. What happened to your other sword?"

Kirito blinked as he glanced back, before he said, "The Dark Repulsor is at home. I'm planning on fixing it later."

Kakashi nodded, "I see. Well, you can just make a copy anywhere, so I guess it won't affect your fighting style much."

The swordsman nodded, "Yeah, but the swords I project are just that, copies. The original is better."

Kakashi nodded before they continued jumping through the trees. As they jumped, Kirito frowned as he saw Sugou trying to get Hikari and Asuna's attention again.

The swordsman quickly drew a small silencing seal on a small tag and gave it to Yui, "Yui, I want you to put this on Sugou's back, preferably behind his chest. Can you do it?"

Kakashi sighed as he easily recognised the silencing tag. Well, he won't stop them, since he knew just how annoying it is to see another guy hit on not one, but two of your girls.

Sasuke and Sakura just shook their heads as Yui nodded with vigor before flying towards the cart.

With Hikari, the blonde was trying her best not to rip the man in half. In the beginning, Sugou had at least tried to act pleasant. But the more Hikari rejected his offers, the worse Sugou became.

He didn't even bother to hide that he wanted Hikari and Asuna by his side.

Kurama chuckled as he spoke, "Hikari, look."

The blonde turned up and saw Yui in her pixie form, holding a sealing tag, one she was very familiar with. The last Namikaze smiled at the girl as she shot towards the cart.

Then, as Sugou was still trying to get Asuna's attention, Yui flew and stopped right behind Sugou's head, smiling.

The rapier user noticed the pixie sized girl and smiled, nodding slightly, though Sugou seemed to take it the other way. The man smiled, "So, when would you like to start? I can arrange everything as soo-!"

Sugou was cut off as he couldn't speak all of a sudden. The man tried to say something, but no sound came out. He even tried screaming, but nothing came out.

Asuna and Hikari both hid a smile as they glanced at the trees, where they saw Kirito, Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura. Suguha and Sinon also saw that and smiled.

Sugou also noticed Kirito standing on the trees, and he seethed, 'THAT MONGREL!'

The trip went on almost uneventfully. Sugou continued trying to speak, but nothing came out, and it only served to make a fool out of himself.

There were also several bandits that tried to rob them. But either Kirito and the team on the trees would take them out before they could even reveal themselves, or Hikari and the girls would take them out easily.

Though, seeing Hikari, Asuna, Suguha and Sinon in action just made Sugou want them more. The man always thought ninja fighting was barbaric, but he couldn't deny that the girls looked really hot in action.

Unfortunately for Sugou, he couldn't say anything due to the silencing seals that were on him.

After a while, the group decided to camp out for the night, as it was getting late, to the chargin of the bespectacled man.

Sugou frowned as the four girls set up the camp, along with the staff that were with them. The man had never camped out, having always stayed at the finest inns his 'servants', which were his father's staff that were assigned to him, could find.

The fact that he had to sleep out in the open disgusted him. Sadly for him, and luckily for the staff attending to him, Sugou couldn't voice his discomfort.

Meanwhile, on a tree a short distance away from the camp, Kirito and his team watched over them as they set up camp.

Sakura asked, "Hey, so are we just gonna stay up here?"

Kakashi nodded, "Yeah, our mission is to watch over them, more specifically, watch over Sugou. But from what I've seen, we don't need to do much."

Kirito nodded, "Yeah, but like Hokage-sama said, I won't take any chances."

Sasuke smirked, "Hmph, well, don't worry too much. I doubt he can do anything to them."

The swordsman nodded, "Yeah..."

The night passed quite peacefully. Thanks to the double barrier Hikari and Kirito put up, none of the enemies could attack them, not that there were any enemies anyways.

The next day, the group continued their journey to Nami no Kuni, and they quickly reached the country with no problems.

Soon, they were at the bridge connecting Nami no Kuni to the main island. Hikari grinned as she saw the bridge, "Damn it feels nice to see this place again."

Asuna, Suguha and Sinon all nodded as they smiled. Asuna turned and glanced at the people driving the carts, "Let's go."

The others just nodded as they quickly followed them across the bridge, while Kirito and the others walked on the side of the bridge/flew by the side of the bridge.

The group quickly reached the town, and the people from Konoha couldn't help but marvel at how developed the place was now. It was as if they were in a totally different place.

The team quickly reached one of the more expensive hotels in the area, which was where they were supposed to escort Sugou to.

As the girls led the two carts to the hotel, Hikari said to Sugou with a hidden smirk, "We're here. This is where we part ways, Nobuyuki-san. I'm sure your voice will return in a short moment, have a pleasant day."

The girls all nodded as the staff gave them their thanks for having had to escort them to their destination. Sugou tried to smile, but he was just too frustrated to make it seem convincing.

Soon, the girls left the hotel, leaving Sugou and his men. As the bespectacled man entered the hotel, he growled, "That bastard... I don't know how, but I'm sure he did something to me!"

It was only then did he realise his voice was back. But before he could cheer, one of the hotel attendants approached him, "Nobuyuki Sugou-san, right?"

Sugou blinked as he pushed his glasses up, "Yes, how may I help you?"

The attendant nodded, "Yes, your father is waiting for you in his room, we'll take care of your items."

Sugou nodded, curious what his father wanted, "Thank you, I'll go right away."

The attendant bowed and quickly went to help Sugou's men with their work. Sugou then walked to the rooms, 'I must get those girls, and that mongrel WILL pay!'

As he reached the room, Sugou knocked, and his father's voice came from the other side of the door, "Come in."

Sugou opened the door to see a man sitting on the chair with his legs crossed, resting his arms on the arm-rest of the chair. The man had a goatie and had a muscular build, along with strict atmosphere around him.

All in all, the man was very different compared to what Sugou was. This was Nobuyuku Ryoutaro. (Imagine Baraqiel from Highschool DxD)

Ryoutaro placed the file he had been reading on the table in front of him, and he turned to look at his son, "Sugou, so, how was your trip?"

Sugou smiled at his father, the man being one of the few people he respected, "It was great, father. I learned a lot of things."

Ryoutaro nodded before he asked, "I sense you want something, what is it?"

Sugou nodded, "Yes, I met these four kunoichi from Konoha, and I'm interested in them. I want to hire them as our personal guards."

The older man nodded before he pointed at the files on the table in front of him, "Sugou, do you know what these are?"

The bespectacled man tilted his head slightly, "No, father."

Ryoutaro turned his gaze to his son, his eyes turning cold, "These are the reports I received about your attitude. I am very, very disappointed."

Sugou blinked, "I'm sorry, father, but-"

Ryoutaro spoke calmly, but the anger in his voice was obvious, "Shut up. And listen."

The man looked at the files and slowly flipped the pages, "Repeated sexual harassment against girls from almost every village, just because they looked worthy to you, some of them were even in relationships, yet you didn't care, and even threatened them with your status as my son."

Sugou tried to speak up but Ryoutaro just kept going, "Then, you provoked people repeatedly just because they were 'lowly' villagers, and even hit and spat on them, using your status as my son as a shield."

Sugou tried to speak up again, but Ryoutaro continued listing out what he had on the files, "And then, you even bought a fucking circus just so you could fire a man for using you in his act."

The older man turned his gaze to his son, and Sugou could see just how furious he was, "I sent you out to learn about your mistakes, and yet, you went on a vacation. YOU HAVE NO IDEA, JUST HOW MUCH YOU FUCKED UP!"

Sugou opened his mouth, but his father cut him off, "I taught you, to always be kind, to be noble, because we are privileged. There are many people out there, who are poor, who are not fortunate like us. That is why I sent you out on a trip."

Sugou opened his mouth again, but Ryoutaro said, "This is enough, Sugou. From today onwards, you will live on your own. I will cut all of your accounts, and none of my staff will bother with you. And everything you have, will be confiscated."

Sugou's eyes widened, "WHAT?! DO YOU WANT ME TO DIE?!"

Ryoutaro glared at his son, "You forced my hand. I taught you better than this. And just so you know, I started with nothing. EVERYONE started with nothing. You will learn to live as a normal person."

Sugou just gaped at his father as the older man said loudly, "Now get of my sight."

Immediately, the door opened, and four samurai came in and dragged Sugou out of the building before throwing him onto the ground.

The bespectacled man just glared at the samurai as they went back into the hotel. Sugou growled, hatred boiling within him, "FUCK YOU! I'LL SHOW YOU!"

The man turned and stormed away aimlessly, coincidentally heading for the forest.

As he stumbled into the forest, Sugou growled, hatred practically flowing out of body. As Sugou continued to curse his father, a black ball of chakra floated in front of him.

Sugou blinked as he noticed the ball. Curious, the man touched it. And as soon as he touched it, the ball of chakra burst, all the black chakra flowing into him from his mouth, chest, eyes and ears.

Sugou screamed as the large amount of chakra flowed into his body. As soon as the chakra finished entering his body, Sugou fell to the ground unconscious.

Then, his body started to change. His hair turned blonde, growing to neck length. His ears also elongated, turning pointy at the ends, and his previously black eyes took on a yellow hue. More importantly, he grew a pair of green transparent wings.

After a few hours, Sugou woke up, and he rubbed his eyes groggily, "What the fuck happened?"

The man slowly stood up before he realised his hair had grown, and had turned blonde. Sugou blinked before he felt the power pulsing within him.

The man took a moment to sense what he had, and he started laughing, "YES! THIS IS THE POWER I WANT! THIS IS THE POWER I NEED!"

The man continued laughing in glee as he glared at the sky, 'JUST YOU WAIT, NOBUYUKI RYOUTARO, AND ALL OF YOU MONGRELS! I WILL GET WHAT I DESERVE!'

Sugou looked at his hair again before he smirked, "Hmph. I need a new name."

He looked around and noticed his wings, then the man smirked again, "Hmm... Very well. FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, I SHALL BE KNOWN AS THE FAIRY KING, OBERON!"

The now named Oberon smirked before he flew away, subconsciously heading for the ruins of Aincrad.

DONE. So yeah, that's the 54th chapter. And Oberon makes his appearance. So, that marks the start of the Oberon arc.

Review please. If you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to tell me. I'm all for suggestions.

Until the next chapter.
