"But Oro-chan—"
"Minato, if you don't wipe that expression off your face this instant, I'll rip your jaw off."
"Oro-chan! Oro-chan! Do you have a girlfriend?"
Orochimaru slapped the back of Kushina's head.
"I guess not if you're so grumpy about it. Do you have a boyfriend then?"
"How did I get stuck with you?"
"Because your skill set will be most beneficial in helping us train should we reach the third round," Minato answered.
"Right, you think you're impressing me when you act like a smart-ass?"
"No, I'm trying to annoy you. It's working."
"Why do you want to annoy me?"
"We have a reputation to uphold," Kushina responded cheerfully.
"I'll tell them you annoyed me out of my skin if you just stop!" Orochimaru finally cracked.
"Fine!" Kushina huffed and sat down abruptly. Both males turned around to face her, baffled. "If we stop pestering you, will you teach us stuff?"
"I do my job, Kushina, I was going to teach you anyways."
"Really?"
"What kind of shinobi do you think I am?"
"A normal one," Minato answered.
Orochimaru rubbed his eyes, exasperated. "Let's stop here and you tell me all of the jutsus you know. We'll talk about Fūinjutsu and test your Taijutsu later."
