So yep quick update from me for once mostly because the words are literally flowing out of me whenever I find the time to sit down and type… which is usually late at night. It also helps that there is a certain point, which I am not going to reveal, that I want to get up to soon which I will finally reach in either the next chapter or the chapter after that.
I am also having thoughts about the harem and a possible new addition. I didn't intend to do this when I was writing either this or the last chapter but it seems to be happening rather naturally without me actively trying to make it happen… so yeah keep that in mind. I am not making any promises yet as to whether the new addition happens I am just saying that if there is one don't be too surprised.
Anyway enjoy.

Flashback
Chapter 30 – Trio of Trouble
'That is correct it would seem they are moving south.' Stated a gruff man.
The man had red hair along with a moustache and beard which tapered off to a point. He wore a large headpiece consisting of a three pointed crown-like ridge, bearing his Rock Village headband, a ring, and a prominent black piece of armour running across his cheeks and the bridge of his nose. He wore a long-sleeved light-red shirt and pants, with mesh-armour shirt and fitted black suit underneath, along with calf-length sandals. Around his waist he wore a brown sash that held a brown armour-like breast plate with a pouch in the front, a brown back plate on the back that is connected to the front with mesh armour, and armoured lapels falling to the sides.
A very tall man also wearing a headband showing his allegiance to the same Village to the right of this man nodded his head in agreement.
Naruto too, nodded his head in thought.
'Yes it seems that would be the case, it would seem they are coming for you Kazekage.' Said Naruto.
'Understood I will be on my guard and increase security around the village.' Stated the aforementioned Kazekage.
'In other news Itachi has now officially broken away from Akatsuki and is now back in the Leaf Village.' Informed the whiskered blond drawing surprised gasps from some while others simply nodded.
'Are you sure it is wise to trust him?' Asked a girl with mint green hair.
'Indeed he was a member of Akatsuki.' Said a man of childlike stature and appearance.
'Yes, there is nothing to worry about. He has proven his loyalty giving me information on ever member of Akatsuki.' Said Naruto before making eight clones which transformed into a scroll containing all the information on the Akatsuki which he hovered over to each person using wind chakra.
'Any other orders of business?' Asked Naruto flatly.
No one replied with some shaking their heads from side to side.
'Very well then disperse for now, keep your guards up and should any critical information or strange movements among the Akatsuki occur simply asked the scroll to transform, tell it the info and dispel it.' Said Naruto earning a nod from all.
'Kazekage I need you to stay behind for a moment, it is time I fix that crude seal.' Said Naruto.
One by one they re-reverse summoned themselves from the left of Naruto from the eight tails Jinchuuriki down.
The two tails lingered for a moment after the three tails had left.
'She misses you, you know?' She said before disappearing.
'Must you call me Kazekage at these meetings Naruto?' Asked the one tailed Jinchuuriki as they both jumped down from their pillars.
'Sorry Gaara but I try to keep the meetings professional, it helps keep everyone focused and serious.' Said Naruto with a slightly sad tone.
'Very well.' Said Gaara in his normal apathetic tone.
'Are you sure you will be able to take on Akatsuki by yourself, there will be two members to deal with remember?' Asked Naruto as he lead him inside the cave to a wide room with four candles in the corners and a large sealing array in the centre.
'I believe so, I have gotten past the limit to how much sand I can control at once and being in the desert should give me an overwhelming advantage.' Said Gaara before he set his gourd down a little bit away from the sealing array while rolling up his left sleeve to the elbow.
'Very well, but remember Gaara there is no shame in asking for help.' Said Naruto as he begun to draw kanji on and around Gaara's left hand.
'I still can't believe they would but the seal in an exposed and vulnerable place, if you ever had your left hand cut off Shukaku would have been freed.' Muttered Naruto.
'Well until you, no one had been able to even touch me let alone come close to cutting my left hand off.' Deadpanned Gaara.
'True, true but still, it is sloppy.' Said Naruto before making the ram seal with his left hand while pressing his index finger directly on Gaara's seal.
A blue glow emanated from the sealing array around Naruto and Gaara before the kanji around Gaara's left hand sunk into the skin.
'There now remember you will be able to access Shukaku's chakra if you need it, although I would suggest trying to come to an agreement first so he doesn't try and break free every time you use it, also don't try any transformations until you are sure he won't try to break free. The new seal allows you easier access to his chakra, but it allows him the same for yours. Also with the mental blocker seals you should be able to get at least two hours of sleep a day from now on, although I really do suggest getting Shukaku to not try and escape first so you may be able to sleep for longer. Remember Gaara though, there will be a price as they will want something in return.' Said Naruto before standing up and bringing Gaara's his gourd as he unrolled his sleeve.
'Thank you again, Naruto.' Said Gaara before he re-reversed summoned himself.
'Heh your welcome Gaara.' Said Naruto to himself before leaving as well.

Walking through a desert, three cloaked figures could be seen bickering.
'I'm telling you the greatest art form possible is a human body strung up by its organs.' Ranted one of the figures.
'Hmm I respect your opinion but in comparison to my explosions there is not art in a slowly decaying body, un.' Said another of the figures.
'Both of you are wrong art must be everlasting, something that never changes over time, unaffected by the sands of time, that is art.' Said the last figure in a very gruff tone.
'*sigh* Master Sasori you just can appreciate my art. Art is only art because it is fleeting, lasting only for a single moment while making such a large impact, is the truest form of art, un.' Said the second figure.
'Feh in any case I don't care for art anyway as long as I can kill someone, soon.' Muttered the first figure in a bloodthirsty tone.
'In any case how much longer until we get there, un.' Asked the second figure.
'Patience Deidara, we are almost there.' Replied Sasori.
'Just remember, let me slaughter as many people as I can and we won't have any trouble.' Said the first figure.
'Hidan you know you can't draw attention until we capture the one tails.' Said Sasori.
'Screw you Sasori, I will kill you if you try and stop me!' Shouted Hidan.
'Well Master Sasori what do you have to say to that, hmm?' Asked Deidara with a smile.
'Hidan, if you make me keep Leader waiting because you went nuts killing people, I will kill you.' Stated Sasori gruffly while shuffling past Hidan.
Hidan's hand twitched to his scythe before clenching his fist.
Sasori stopped, turned back and glared at Hidan.
'Keep moving.' Growled Sasori before moving again.
Deidara put his hand on Hidan's shoulder.
'Don't worry Hidan, Sasori is just testy, coming back to the Sand Village is having a larger impact on him than you'd think, yeah.' Said Deidara before walking off.
'Like I care I just want to kill someone. Soon.' Muttered Hidan before lowering his arm and following his two comrades.

'Well Princess Tsunade?' Questioned a frail, old man with a cane. He had black, shaggy hair, and his right eye was bandaged. He had an x-shaped scar on his chin and wore a white shirt, with a black robe over the top of it covering everything from his feet, to just over his right shoulder.
Tsunade grit her teeth. Simply put she was in a bind, with Sakura not being cleared for active duty due to the beating she received to her midsection, even more embarrassing from a civilian, Team Seven was a member short. Too make matters worse, before she could consult the roster to find a suitable replacement, the three old bags, as Tsunade called them had come and offered a reasonable replacement. It seemed she had no choice. With a heavy sigh Tsunade levelled a stern expression at Danzo, the brains behind the three.
'Very well your chosen shinobi will be added to Team Seven, what is his name?' Asked Tsunade.
'Sai.' Said Danzo with a neutral expression.

Naruto arrived to the house he was looking for given directions from Shikamaru. The house in which currently Ino Yamanaka was recovering from her traumatic ordeal. Naruto raised his hand up just about to knock on the door before turning around quickly and launching a kunai right through a black and white construct, which before splattering into a blob of ink, looked like a lion.
Naruto slowly raised his head and spotted a figure crouching on the roof of the building directly adjacent to Ino's.
Naruto exploded into smoke shocking the figure before a kunai was placed against the figures neck.
'You know I wasn't exactly looking for a fight today, in fact all I wanted to do today was talk. Since I really don't want to fight today, I will give you a chance to explain why you just tried to attack me.' Said Naruto apathetically with a bored expression.
'The way you fight, are you a boy or a girl? I just wanted to find out for myself.' Asked the figure with a clearly fake smile.
'Hmm well I haven't actually fought with you yet, if you will, I am merely trying to understand your motives. If you want to fight, hmm well I suppose we could have a spar tomorrow at noon if that is fine with you?' Suggested Naruto.
'Well dick-less I didn't know you were a coward as well.' Said the figure smiling despite the blade pressed against his neck.
Naruto pulled the kunai away before taking a step back allowing the figure to stand.
'One question though, before you leave.' Said Naruto as the figure turned to face him with a fake smile plastered on his pale white face. He had short, black hair and black eyes which contrast with his very pale skin. He was carrying a small backpack with him and wore a short black jacket with red straps. He also carried a tip-less tanto on his back. The rest of his outfit consisted of a high-collared midriff shirt, black pants, shinobi sandals and gloves with his index and thumb fingers exposed with his shirt having a long right sleeve and a short left sleeve.
'What is your name?' Asked Naruto.
'Oh are you perhaps feeling attracted to me, I've read that asking for someone's name shows that you have a genuine interest in someone?' Asked the figure.
Naruto just maintained a bored gaze.
'If are you going to question my sexual orientation I can direct you to people who can clear it up for you so you don't continue wasting my time.' Said Naruto in a bored tone.
"Hmm he certainly is much calmer than my report indicated." Thought the figure.
'Very well, I guess I will have to find out tomorrow then.' Said the figure before making a hand sign, as what seemed to be ink, swirled around him in a helical shape.
'The name is Sai.' Said Sai before disappearing.
-line break-
'Well that was rather strange.' Mumbled Naruto before jumping down off the building and walking back to the door he was going to knock on before his encounter with Sai.
Once again before Naruto could knock he stopped just before knocking this time though because the door opened revealing Ino in her ninja gear.
'Naruto?' Asked Ino surprised.
'Hi Ino, where are you off to?' Asked Naruto with a small smile.
'Oh just to the main gate to meet up with Choji and Shikamaru for a mission, why?' Replied Ino.
'Eh well I was just wondering if I could talk with you.' Stated Naruto.
'Yeah sure but can we walk and talk?' Asked Ino gesturing in the direction of the main gate.
'Sure no problem.' Said Naruto as he fell in step next to his fellow blonde.
'So what's the mission about?' Asked Naruto making idle chat.
'Just escorting an official, just a simple C-rank at best but the client wanted at least three Chunin.' Stated Ino matter-of-factly.
'Heh well if it is anything like my team's first C-rank escort you'll be in for a surprise.' Laughed Naruto.
'Oh that was the mission when you meet Haku right?' Asked Ino.
'Yeah, hmm now that I think about it that was the last time we had a mission just the four of us, me, Kakashi, Sasuke and Sakura.' Said Naruto thinking aloud.
'On that note how is Sakura?' Asked Ino.
'Uh well she should be alright just some internal bleeding which was healed up pretty quick but she will have to rest for at least a week.' Said Naruto.
Ino nodded thoughtfully before a brief silence engulfed the pair. Naruto looked around seeing there were less people around on this street and decided that now would be the best time to bring up his actual reason for visiting Ino.
'So, how are you doing, after the mission I mean?' Asked Naruto in a kind tone.
'I'm fine.' Replied Ino calmly earning a raised eyebrow from Naruto to which she giggled.
'What did you expect me to break down or something?' Asked Ino happily while looking at Naruto with a teasing grin.
'Well you did break down before.' Muttered Naruto hoping Ino didn't hear him.
Ino heard him and slapped Naruto's arm with a huff.
'Well that was then and this is now.' Stated Ino firmly.
'You know I'd be willing to talk with you about it if you want?' Offered Naruto sincerely.
Ino patted Naruto's cheek with a small exhale.
'Look Naruto, I appreciate you being caring and all but I am a big girl. I knew what I was getting into when I chose to be a kunoichi, I am from a clan you know.' Said Ino before pausing.
Naruto was now listening intently to see what Ino would say next.
'I knew the risks of the mission, just like I know the risks in every mission. I also know why you came to talk with me so I played along, however I am a Yamanaka, someone who has the ability to enter the minds of others and even destroy them, hence why I need to have a strong mind as well so as to not be overwhelmed by someone else's.' Said Ino.
'So you're sure you're alright?' Asked Naruto questioningly.
'Yep I'm fine just like I said.' Said Ino with a smile.
As they continued walking another silence overcame them due to Naruto reflecting on this new piece of information.
'So if you don't mind me asking, why were you such a fan-girl before I left?' Asked Naruto in confusion.
Ino blushed slightly in embarrassment.
'W-well just because I knew what I was getting into at the time by becoming a ninja it isn't like I fully grasped the weight behind exactly what it would entail.' Said Ino in embarrassment.
'So, does that mean you stopped dieting?' Asked Naruto suddenly prompting Ino to glare at him.
'What does that have to do with anything?' Asked Ino warily.
'Nothing I was just curious, since I remember that one mission we had together before I left to the Land of Noodles and you kept going on about the importance of dieting, all the way back to the Leaf Village.' Deadpanned Naruto earning another blush from Ino.
'Like I said I didn't fully grasp the magnitude of what I was getting into.' Said Ino with a huff.
Naruto stared at Ino before she huffed again.
'No I'm not dieting anymore.' Ino mumbled earning a chuckle from Naruto which she returned with a glare.
'Oh what are you laughing at now huh?' Asked Ino with a huff.
'Nothing, nothing just wondering how different you would be if you weren't dieting back then, after all if three years of not dieting and eating properly helped you grow into this, well, you can't blame a guy for wondering what an extra few years would have done.' Said Naruto with his signature smile.
Ino blinked fully absorbing Naruto's words before realising that in a roundabout sort of way Naruto had complemented her figure. Ino moved closer to Naruto and leaned her head closer to Naruto's ear.
'I didn't take you for a womanizer, Naruto, flirting with me when you already have two girls after you.' Whispered Ino.
"Three actually but you don't need to know that… wait a minute why does Kurama have four marks … THAT'S what those marks mean. Wait a minute, who's the fourth?" Thought Naruto finally realising what Kyuubi meant by the marks on the wall.
Naruto snapped out of his thoughts before turning to Ino, whose face was still pretty close to his.
'Well I wouldn't consider it flirting I was just telling a beautiful girl that she is beautiful, guy's complementing you can't be that strange of an occurrence.' Replied Naruto coolly.
Ino just smiled before leaning away once again.
'Well it isn't ever day that someone who has girls already after him innocently complements another girl.' Said Ino with a smirk.
'If beauty is not appreciated beauty will cease to exist… or at least that's what I think.' Said Naruto with a pause glancing up at the sky.
'Now why couldn't you have been this romantic in the past?' Pouted Ino.
'Oh I was, you were just too busy chasing after Mr Uchiha to realise.' Teased Naruto with a grin.
'Sheesh I already said I wasn't the smartest girl around back then okay, now please stop using that against me.' Requested Ino with a pout which caused Naruto to laugh.
'Sorry but I haven't seen what new Ino is like having been gone for three years so I need to rely on my knowledge of old Ino for now.' Said Naruto sheepishly while scratching the back of his head.
'Hmm fine I'll let it go, but only this time.' Retorted Ino teasingly.
'Well there's the gate nice getting to know you new Ino, you're much better than old Ino.' Said Naruto cheerfully.
'Nice getting to know you too new Naruto, definitely an improvement of the pranking numbskull I remember.' Retorted Ino getting a small laugh from Naruto who started walking off before give a wave, Ino's eyes trailing him.
"Oh yeah, definitely an improvement." Thought Ino eying Naruto's posterior.

Naruto was now heading off to the hospital to track down Tsunade and/or Fuka to confirm his suspicions.
Entering the sterile facility Naruto shivered slightly, still not liking hospitals.
"I mean they could try another colour than just white to give this place some atmosphere." Thought Naruto finding the utter lack of colour depressing.
Just before he could walk up to the information desk to ask about Tsunade or Fuka, Shizune appeared from the inner section of the hospital in the reception area so Naruto walked over to her instead.
'Hey Shizune, how's it going?' Asked Naruto politely.
'I'm fine Naruto, thanks for asking and coming here as I was just looking for you, Tsunade wants to see you in room two hundred and five.' Said Shizune before walking off prompting Naruto to follow.
Arriving at the door to the room Naruto could her grumbling and was pretty sure Tsunade was rubbing her temples in frustration. Opening the door proved Naruto correct as, there seated on two chairs, were Fuka and Tsunade with the later rubbing her temples.
'You know if you keep stressing this much you'll get wrinkles.' Teased Naruto getting a withering glare from Tsunade and melodious laughter from Fuka who was clutching her sides in laughter at Naruto saying almost the exact same thing she had said to Tsunade earlier.
'Shut it brat! Everyone keeps talking about me getting wrinkles.' Shouted Tsunade while mumbling the second part.
'Ok now explain this.' Said Tsunade pointing at Fuka.
Naruto blinked and looked at Fuka before looking back at Tsunade.
'Um it's a girl?' Said Naruto in confusion.
'*hmph* I'm not a girl I'm a woman.' Said Fuka crossing her arms under her bust knowingly getting a look from Naruto.
'Correction a woman.' Said Naruto earning a smile from Fuka and a growl from Tsunade.
'Yes an eighty year old woman!' Growled Tsunade.
'Wow… best looking eighty year old I've ever seen.' Said Naruto in shock.
'That isn't the point.' Ranted Tsunade before Fuka interjected.
'Oh Tsunade I knew you liked me, personally testing me all alone with just the two of us in this room.' Said Fuka as she hugged Tsunade pressing her bust against Tsunade's.
Naruto's mouth dropped in shock at what he was seeing.
"I-I think my mind just overloaded a bit." Said Naruto staring at the scene before him which he was sure Jiraiya would kill for.
After having her intended effect on stunning Naruto, Fuka broke the hug and sat down.
'Brat!' Shouted Tsunade snapping Naruto out of his daydreaming.
'What? She is Itachi's agent not mine.' Asked Naruto curiously.
'Well she just so happens to be a full blooded Uzumaki too.' Said Tsunade confirming Naruto's earlier suspicion.
'Yep thought so her hair is just as red as Kushina's.' Said Naruto with a nod.
A brief silence enveloped the room before Naruto spoke.
'So what's your point?' Asked Naruto.
Silence prevailed.
'Uh can she leave?' Asked Naruto.
Tsunade finally said something at last 'I suppose so.'
'Cool let's go Fuka.' Said Naruto offering his hand to Fuka which she took.
'Such a gentleman.' Said Fuka before she grabbed Naruto's arm and pressed her body against it.
Naruto, to his credit, ignored it for the most part, but then again he never tried to move away either as they left a stupefied Tsunade.
'I… need a drink.' Whined Tsunade.
-line break-
'Finally!' Shouted Hidan as they arrived at the gates of The Village Hidden in the Sands.
'Quiet, this is a covert operation and announcing that we are here is not going to help us.' Growled Sasori.
'You know what go have sex with your puppets I need to kill someone now!' Retorted Hidan before Sasori bound him in place with chakra threads locking his movement.
'Deidara get on with it.' Said Sasori.
'Have no fear Sasori my man I'll be back in no time.' Said Deidara before making a clay bird and flying high up into the air.
'Master Sasori you have arrived.' Said a Sand ninja coming forth from between the gates.
'Come on let me kill his one.' Whined Hidan.
'You are not killing one of my informants.' Stated Sasori gruffly.
'You have more, come on Sasori I need to sacrifice someone soon.' Whined Hidan once again.
"You better hurry back soon Deidara." Thought Sasori as he twitched at Hidan's incessant whining.
-line break-
'So… how can you be eighty and still look like… well that?' Asked Naruto gesturing to Fuka as they walked to his apartment.
'Oh now whatever do you mean by, that?' Asked Fuka with a coy expression which Naruto did not buy at all.
'You know what I mean.' Deadpanned Naruto.
'What these or maybe these?' Said Fuka as she fondled her posterior and breasts.
'Stop that.' Said Naruto as he grabbed both of Fuka's arms and pulled them away from her body while looking around to make sure no one was watching the Uzumaki fondle herself in public.
'I just knew you were the type to like it rough. First pushing me against a wall now your even holding down my arms, soon you might just ravish my body in public.' Fuka mock wailed.
'You certainly are more, imaginative than most eighty year olds.' Said Naruto with his left eye beginning to twitch as he let go of her arms.
'Well then again I'm not exactly eighty, although it was fun to pretend to rile that old bat up.' Said Fuka before laughing.
'Hmm so you were just joking? Wait what about the blood test?' Asked Naruto in confusion.
'Ah yes that, well the results say I am eighty due to my ability.' Said Fuka with a thoughtful expression as they arrived at Naruto's apartment which they entered.
Naruto made some tea for himself and Fuka as Tayuya was currently out on a mission with her squad consisting of Kimimaro, Haku and Genma from the Chunin exams. From what she had told Naruto they were a pretty solid team with her handling long to mid range support with her Genjutsu and if needed her Doki, Haku taking care of mid to short range support with his Ice Style and senbon, as well as being the medic of the team, Kimimaro was their frontline Taijutsu heavy hitter while Genma was the frontline Ninjutsu master making for a formidable group.
'So… mind explaining the whole eighty year old thing?' Asked Naruto as he poured the tea for Fuka and himself before sitting down on the couch next to Fuka.
'Hmm alright then. Well you see it works like this, from what I remember from the teachings of my mother, Uzumaki's usual have a specific attribute that is unique to their chakra. For instance my mother had the ability to make her chakra solid while moving it around like a gas.' Said Fuka.
'Huh, I'm sorry, make it solid?' Asked Naruto in confusion.
'Yes. You understand how chakra is formless, almost like a gas? Well my mother could actually use it as such, moving it around as a gas and say for instance, wrap around an enemy, before she would turn it solid locking them in place.' Said Fuka.
'Huh that reminds me of something pervy sage told me about a woman he knew who could make chains out of her chakra… wait a minute pervy sage didn't exactly know a lot of Uzumaki, I wonder.' Said Naruto trailing off in thought before Fuka coughed getting his attention once again.
'So as I was saying, Uzumaki's all generally have a unique ability thanks to their special chakra.' Said Fuka.
'Really what's mine then?' Asked Naruto curiously.
'Well from what Itachi has told me it is probably your stamina.' Said Fuka seriously for once.
'Huh I thought that was because of… something else.' Said Naruto trailing off.
'No it isn't the fox.' Said Fuka shocking Naruto.
'Don't look so surprised I am Itachi's informant and he was working for Akatsuki an organisation specifically designed to hunt down tailed beast hosts.' Said Fuka in amusement.
'So wait, that time in the restaurant?' Asked Naruto.
'No I didn't know what you were, Itachi only informed me that the fox was held by a Leaf shinobi, imagine my surprise when Itachi gave me your description before you came to Grass, a description which was easy to reconcile with your face, whiskers.' Teased Fuka.
Naruto pouted slightly at being called whiskers before realising they had gotten off track.
'So my stamina is my Uzumaki ability?' Asked Naruto in confusion.
'Yes, while most Jinchuuriki have large reserves and outrageous stamina, you with just your Uzumaki chakra have much more stamina than any Jinchuuriki ever could, so with the fox, well you are a stamina king and a never ending chakra fountain.' Said Fuka.
'Wow I thought my stamina and reserves were because of old foxy.' Said Naruto getting a growl from said fox.
"Come on we both know you are old, probably the oldest thing around." Thought Naruto getting the fox to stop growling, after all Naruto did have a point.
'So wait you never said what your power was.' Stated Naruto.
'Well I could tell you, but then again I could always show you.' Said Fuka with a sly smile.
'Alright then show me.' Said Naruto missing the gleam in Fuka's eyes.
Fuka slid over on the couch until she was next to Naruto just barely touching his legs. She then reached up towards his face before bringing her own closer to his before licking his cheek freezing Naruto in place.
'Wind huh?' Said Fuka to the shocked Naruto before turning his face so she was looking directly into his stunned eyes before straddling him and then kissing him, right on the lips.
"What the hell is going on?" Shouted Naruto in his mind being too stunned to move.
When Fuka's tongue entered his mouth his eyes widened before he felt a strange sensation and looked down to see what seemed to be a strand of blue chakra coming out of his mouth and into Fuka's. After a moment Fuka pressed her lips back against Naruto's before the strange sensation faded and she leant back with a seductive smile.
'My, my, that was some powerful chakra you have.' Said Fuka before feeling something nudging her most sacred place.
'That doesn't seem to be all you have.' Said Fuka as she placed a hand on Naruto's growing erection.
"Not bad." Mused Fuka before getting off Naruto and sitting next to him once again.
"Screw you Kyuubi. How the hell did you see this coming so early?" Ranted Naruto in his mind realising who the fourth mark was.
'*hmph* It is as you said I am the oldest thing around, I've learnt enough in my time to see these things coming.' Stated Kurama haughtily.
"Smug bastard." Retorted Naruto before coming back to his senses.
'*sigh* I should have just asked you to tell me.' Muttered Naruto.
'What are you a homosexual? What guy doesn't like a kiss from a beautiful woman? Although then again, I think you liked it a bit too much.' Said Fuka in an outraged tone before becoming teasing as she pointed to the bulge in his pants.
Naruto grabbed the pillow behind him and covered his erection.
'That isn't the point!' Shouted a blushing Naruto.
'Oh? If you enjoyed it that much trust me, I know a lot more things that I can do that you will enjoy.' Teased Fuka as she leaned forward, pressing her bust against Naruto's arm.
Naruto's blush increased a bit before he willed it down.
'So what was that exactly?' Asked Naruto curiously.
'A kiss, don't tell me you haven't had one before.' Said Fuka pretending to be shocked.
'Hey I'll have you know I've had four before that one.' Said Naruto indignantly.
'Want to make it six?' Asked Fuka with a sultry grin.
'Maybe after you explain your ability.' Teased Naruto having regained some of his composure at having remembered that he had kissed Tayuya and Tenten before.
'So bold, very well I'll explain my power first. I have the ability to read a person's chakra nature by licking their cheek and am able to absorb their chakra through a kiss enabling me to use various chakra natures.' Said Fuka.
'So you said I had wind meaning that if you wanted to you could use wind style jutsu?' Asked Naruto in curiosity.
'Exactly, the reason the blood test said I am eighty is because when I absorb other people's chakra I am absorbing their life force and adding it to my own, hence if I kissed you and sucked out a year's worth of your chakra the blood test would say I am eighty-one.' Explained Fuka.
'Oh so you're not really eighty right?' Asked Naruto cautiously.
Fuka huffed before replying 'No I'm actually twenty one, besides do I look like an eighty year old to you?' Asked Fuka gesturing to her body.
'Nope and thank heaven for that.' Said Naruto absentmindedly as his eyes roamed Fuka's body.
'Oh why does that matter to you?' Asked Fuka straddling Naruto again surprising him before she slowly ground their lower regions together.
'Uh, oh, um, Gaara needs help screw this I'm out.' Said a flustered Naruto before teleporting to the kunai he gave Gaara as he had felt him throw it which indicated he needed help.
Fuka pouted at the loss of Naruto but then smiled evilly.
'Well so it seems he is a little shy, oh well nothing I won't be able to fix in time.' She said to herself as she sipped the tea Naruto had made.
So yes Fuka is twenty one. Also as you may or may not notice this means no 'withered Fuka form' if her hair is damaged, right now she is an Uzumaki who just takes pride in her hair, not someone whose soul lives in it.
On another note isn't it great that Naruto in both my stories is now interacting with such teasing characters Fuka in this one and Mei in my other one? They are also the most fun to write in my opinion although that may be because I am a guy.
Also for those of you who are quite adept at seeing what might happen in the future I would appreciate your opinions on the possible new addition.
Lastly I am just putting this out there, lemons… I may or may not do them, I suppose if I feel one would fit well I would do it but they will never really be a prominent feature in either of my stories.
