Chapter 4-Juubi Meets Hanya

Miya was worried. A rarity these days, but an occurrence all the same. Uzume had not come home the previous night. Nor had she called. At first, Miya assumed the girl was out late, partying like the young girl seemed to portray, and merely got lost on the way home. Of course the last part was what worried Miya, as she knew Uzume had yet to find her Ashikabi, and there was a possibility the spunky woman had been winged forcibly in the process.

Miya could only pray that wasn't the case.

"Worried about Uzume?" asked Homura with Miya nodding.

"Any word from Takami?" asked Miya with Homura shaking his head.

"No. I asked if she knew where Uzume was or if she had been winged. All I got out of her was that Uzume was fine and to drop the issue. Whatever Takami knows, she is too afraid to tell me. Though afraid of what or who exactly is unknown," replied Homura since he had given Takami a call about Uzume, but the SIC of M.B.I. sounded like she had just ate something foul, and told the fire Sekirei not to worry about Uzume.

It was weird. It was like saying Uzume was fine, but not in the way Homura, and Miya by extension would like. When Homura had asked if Uzume had been forcibly winged by an Ashikabi, Takami had assured him that wasn't the case, and to simply drop the issue before hanging up.

It raised a lot of red flags in Homura's mind. Matsu had tried to find out who had winged Uzume, but like Musubi, and Akitsu the Ashikabi designated to them was classified with a big fat blank for a picture. Word was quickly spreading about this "Phantom Ashikabi", which that scum Karou Seo's twin Sekirei Hikari, and Hibiki had been spreading. The trio had paid Miya a visit shortly after Uzume left, begging/mooching for food as usual, and had reluctantly told the Hanya of the North what they saw regarding this particular ghost of a man.

Honestly though, why did those two have to make up such lies in her house. An Ashikabi with three eyes, had horns, and could appear seemingly right out of thin air. Such vivid imaginations those two Sekirei had. She almost didn't give them the food they begged for when here. Of course when you are hungry and desperate for food thanks to their piece of trash for an Ashikabi, its no real surprise they would make something like that up. So she gave them the food more out of pity for their stomachs over anything else.

Maybe when they have had enough food in their stomachs they could come back and tell the truth.

A ringing of her phone brought Miya out of her thoughts and moved to answer it. All the while secretly hoping it was Uzume calling to say she was all right. If not, Miya would have Matsu put a trace on the phone call and have Homura investigate the matter even if Uzume now had an Ashikabi.

"Hello? Maison Izumo," said Miya in a sweet tone.

"Hey Miya! Its me Uzume. Sorry for not calling you last night. I kind of...forgot," replied Uzume while laughing nervously since she knew Miya was going to be worried mixed with upset.

And Miya upset meant Miya brought out her Hanya.

"Oh Uzume! I'm so glad you are okay. You had me so worried," said Miya while smiling more and bringing out her Hanya to project through the phone to Uzume to show just how much she worried for the girl.

"Come on Miya! Please don't be like that! Things just got...complicated yesterday when I was at the hospital," replied Uzume nervously while clearly sensing the dreaded Hanya Mask and pleading secretly for the woman to stop.

"I heard you were winged. Was it forced?" questioned Miya while worried it had been the case and Takami had lied to Homura.

"No. No! Nothing of the sort. Yes, I found my Ashikabi, but it wasn't a forced winging. You know I was reacting to someone," said Uzume while Miya calmed down.

"I see. Where there is at least that. I trust your Ashikabi isn't a piece of trash like Seo? And he is treating you well?" asked Miya while sensing Uzume was now grinning like she had the best thing in the world since the TV was invented.

"Yep! My Ashikabi is wonderful. I have only been his Ashikabi since late yesterday and already I feel spoiled in terms of being loved by him," replied Uzume while not telling Miya the two had already had sex at the hospital and last night in his hotel suite.

And twice again this morning with one time being in the hot spring.

"Well, I suppose that is another good thing to happen. Will you be returning back with him to Maison Izumo?" questioned Miya since she would like to meet this "Phantom Ashikabi" for herself and see if he was indeed the scary man Seo's Sekirei claimed him to be.

"Meet him? Uh...I don't know. He's kind of busy at the moment. Not to mention he's a Doctor at the hospital and busy with patients during the day," replied Uzume hesitantly while looking back behind her to see Naruto was currently busy with Akitsu riding him shamelessly on the couch.

Poor Musubi was out of it on the bed with a goofy grin on her face last Uzume saw her after Naruto had his time with the fist fighter.

"Even still, it would be important to have him visit Maison Izumo soon. All of your stuff is here after all. If you are moving out of my Inn, I will need to know immediately," said Miya while hoping to get Uzume to return with her Ashikabi in tow.

"Well, given how things are with my Ashikabi, I'll most likely move in with him. On the plus side, we are staying here in the North so the trip to Maison Izumo wouldn't take too long," said Uzume since she knew staying at Maison Izumo was not an option for her, Musubi, Akitsu, or their Ashikabi.

Not to mention their libidos and loins would no doubt die a slow agonizing death!

"I see. So your Ashikabi lives in the North," remarked Miya since she was sure M.B.I. had made it a standing notice to all Ashikabi to stay away from the Northern area of Shinto Teito.

Or at the very least, as far away from Miya as humanly possible.

"Yeah. I'll tell you more when we visit. I have to go. Bye!" exclaimed Uzume quickly and hung up the phone.

(With Naruto)

Uzume hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief before glaring at a naked Naruto, who was currently behind her own naked body, and had one of his hands on her butt. She had nearly squeaked in surprise when he did that and risked earning Miya's wrath with that dreaded Hanya. All for doing what the windowed woman would considered "lewd and immoral acts" while on the phone. While Miya couldn't actually enforce her rules beyond her own Inn. for such things, she could still use the damn mask, and make her presence known through the phone.

"You ass! You nearly got me in trouble with Miya!" exclaimed Uzume while slapping him on the arm when turning to him.

And saw an exhausted Akitsu lying on the couch with a sleepy yet happy look on her face.

"Oh please! You were turned on by it," remarked Naruto while giving her ass a nice squeeze and brought the woman closer to him.

"Maybe," mumbled Uzume before gasping and felt his other hand grope her breast.

"Maybe? Only a maybe? Maybe I should send you to the brink and leave you without release?" questioned Naruto into her ear.

"You wouldn't dare!" protested Uzume while feeling his erection against her butt and his one hand that had been there now snaked its way to the front.

"Maybe," replied Naruto while Uzume growled at having her own word used against her.

"You...evil...glorious...bastard!" exclaimed Uzume while Naruto grinned since he was pushing all her buttons in just the right way.

"So I have been told," said Naruto while kissing her neck and enjoying how she was reacting to his touch.

"Miya...wants...to meet you," replied Uzume while pressing her butt back against his crotch.

"I'm sure she does. Though I doubt she will want to when I tell her a bit about myself and all the naughty things we've done together," remarked Naruto with Uzume groaning in pleasure and frustration.

"She...She will...want to...kill yoooouuuu!" said Uzume before she felt him lift her hip up enough to insert his cock into her pussy.

"I would like to see her try. Besides, Miya wouldn't be the first one to make the attempt on my life, and definitely will not be the last," replied Naruto before he began thrusting into Uzume.

Uzume would have retorted, but it was kind of difficult to do when your Ashikabi is fucking you from behind, and hitting all the right spots in the process.

(Izumi Hospital-Sometime Later)

"You're doing much better Chiho. At this rate, you will be able to walk around without any problems," said Naruto in a praising tone while Chiho was going through a walking exercise with him watching her carefully.

"I feel stronger today too! And the treatments aren't hurting anymore like they did before you became my Doctor," replied Chiho happily since this was the most progress she had made in a long time.

"Well, I found a way to refine the process so its less painful," remarked Naruto while not telling her the reason behind the treatment being less painful was because she wasn't even taking the treatment anymore.

The nurses and assistants in the room with him and Chiho when it was time for doing the procedure were under a room wide Genjutsu. The illusion itself made everyone outside of himself believe they were going through the medical procedure, same as normal as it was before his arrival, but made sure Chiho didn't feel any pain in her part of the illusion. While the people in the room stood there and went through the Genjutsu he created, Naruto was busy healing Chiho with his healing chakra. He created a Shadow Clone to work the different pieces of equipment (which he thanks Kami were all labeled so he knew what to press) in the room to fool everyone when the Genjutsu was over.

No one suspected a thing.

"Thank you. When I first went through it, I told the other Doctors it hurt, but they would not listen to my pleas to stop. They just said it was normal and kept on going through the process," explained Chiho while Naruto masked the desire to scowl at the idea of those idiot Doctors abusing their power and hiding behind the usual "it is all part of the medical process" bullshit they spoke when questioned about their actions.

He would make a note to do some medical traumatizing of his own to those bastards when it was time to...terminate his employment.

"Yeah well what do they know? I bet if they went through what you did, they would be pushing for a painless process," said Naruto while helping the girl back to her wheelchair.

"Dr. Namikaze, can I have a word with you?" asked Kakizaki while appearing around the corner and smiling his Kabuto like smile at Naruto.

"I don't like him. He makes me uneasy," whispered Chiho with concern since that man was rumored to be working for someone cold and cruel at the hospital.

"Smart decision," whispered Naruto while pushing Chiho toward Kakizaki.

"I would prefer we speak in private," said Kakizaki while glancing from Naruto to Chiho and then back to Naruto.

"Of course Kakizaki-san. I just need to drop Chiho off at her room. We'll speak after I do that," replied Naruto with a fake smile before wheeling the girl past the slightly scowling man.

"I will see you in my office. Don't keep me waiting Naruto-san. I am a very busy man and have no time for tardiness," ordered Kakizaki since he had wanted to talk to Naruto in private away from others.

"Aren't we all," mumbled Naruto before moving Chiho down the corridor and out of sight from the poor Kabuto substitute.

After he dropped Chiho into her room, Naruto assured her everything would be okay, and went back to Kakizaki in his office. The man was sitting in his chair, looking all prim and proper, hands folded, and interlocked together while his elbows were on the arm rests of the chair. One leg crossed over the other, a small frown was on his face like he had been waiting for Naruto to enter for an hour when it had been barely a fraction of the time.

Beside him were two women. Clearly these two were Sekirei if their attire and the one with a spear in one hand was any indication.

"Ah Naruto, how good of you to see me. Still as punctual as ever," remarked Kakizaki casually while seeing Naruto look at each Sekirei before sitting down.

"When your Boss says to see him immediately, you see him immediately, and not ask questions," replied Naruto casually while sensing the bloodlust from the two Sekirei flanking the man.

Not that it effected him. Karasuba's desire to kill was far worse.

"Smart. Perhaps too smart," replied Kakizaki with Naruto frowned.

"Pardon?" questioned Naruto with Kakizaki smirking.

"Don't worry about it. I just wanted you to know my employer Izumi Higa has taken an interest in you. A rarity for a man of his brilliance," replied Kakizaki while Naruto held back the urge to vomit.

This guy really did act and sound like Kabuto. All that was needed now to complete the illusion involved Orochimaru rising from the ground or Higa appearing suddenly before ripping his face off to reveal the pale skinned asshole.

"Taken an interest in me? In what way?" asked Naruto curiously while deciding to play the role of the curious and slightly eager to please his employer type of employee.

"We have done some additional inquisitions about you since your arrival here and Higa-sama feels you are someone he wants to keep around for a long time. Your medical skills in healing patients we have here at the hospital after we had originally classified as being difficult to cure in the past is impressive to say the least. After all, being here for such a short time and helping so many patients recover during that small time frame is truly remarkable. Its only a matter of time before someone like M.B.I. takes notice and offers you a job at one of their facilities," said Kakizaki while Naruto now had "I understand!" look on his face.

"Oh, I see! You don't want them to call me up out of the blue one day and ask if I would like a job with a much better paying salary, benefits, bonuses, and all the fine trimmings one gets when working for them," replied Naruto with Kakizaki nodding despite the jab aimed at Higa's company for not supplying or matching such wonderful perks M.B.I. gave its employees.

"Higa-sama's competitor sadly has the necessary resources to poach any and all of our well skilled and competent employees. They actually have done that in the past and it has hurt the company and this hospital hard so Higa-sama doesn't want a repeat with you. Especially now since he sees you being among the rare few Higa-sama actually wants to keep in his employ," replied Kakizaki while Naruto nodded.

'I'm sure. I bet it has nothing to do with the fact my actions are making you and him quite suspicious of my skills. Maybe you even suspect I'm a Sekirei in disguise. Ha! If it wasn't for the fact I would vomit if he tried to kiss me regarding the latter to wing me, I would laugh at the implication,' thought Naruto while knowing his actions with several patients outside of Chiho had resulted in several of them feeling better almost instantly.

Some of them were ready to go home next week in fact.

"In any case, Higa-sama asked me to get some assurances that you wouldn't wish to jump ship anytime in the near, or distant foreseeable future for potentially greener pastures," said Kakizaki while gauging the man's reaction to his words to judge whether Naruto was a risk to Higa's chances at toppling M.B.I. in the future.

Naruto just laughed.

"Me? Leave here for a job at M.B.I. if they offered? That's rich man! I became a Doctor to help people. So M.B.I. has better facilities, resources, technology, and pays better then everyone else on the market. Big deal! I know where I belong and its not with M.B.I. in the slightest. Going to M.B.I. is taking the easy way out in helping others. Most of the technology they have does most of the work for you. It's a crutch! I prefer the hands on challenging approach to helping others. This hospital provides that challenge. Why do you think I applied here instead of M.B.I. in the first place?" said Naruto with Kakizaki frowning since he wasn't expecting that.

Truth be told, M.B.I. was always hiring in just about every field in the business world, and constantly wanted more with each passing day. The damn blasted company always needed Doctors and Naruto could have easily applied to them instead of this hospital. If he did, Kakizaki knew M.B.I. would have given the man the job without breaking a sweat.

"Okay. I believe that will be enough...for the moment anyway. Just keep in mind that Higa-sama wishes to keep you employed with us here at the hospital," replied Kakizaki with Naruto nodding.

"Leaving here for M.B.I. never even crossed my mind and never will," said Naruto with Kakizaki smirking at him.

"Higa-sama will hold you to that statement Dr. Namikaze," remarked Kakizaki while Naruto nodded before getting up out of his chair.

"I'm sure he will Kakizaki-san. Now if you will excuse me, I have some patients needing my undivided attention," said Naruto before heading out the door.

"Something is off about him. The entire time, I felt an almost uncontrollable impulse to fight him," said Toyotama while Ichiya nodded in agreement.

"I did too. As if there was something wrong with him just being in the room. My instincts were telling me to either fight or flee. I've never felt like that before today," added Ichiya while her anger over feeling it was rising to the surface.

"Are you certain? Is he a Sekirei?" asked Kakizaki with a frown.

"No. He is definitely NOT a Sekirei. I'm certain he's not one of us. But...at the same time I don't think he is human either," said Toyotama while not understanding why this guy they saw in here moments ago brought out such a fight or flight instinct in her.

"I see. Interesting. I will have Kochou do some more digging on him to be sure. At the very least, we may have found something more valuable in Dr. Namikaze then we had originally thought," remarked Kakizaki before calling Higa to inform him of this little development.

(Maison Izumo)

"You didn't have to bring all three of us Naruto-kun," commented Uzume while walking only slightly in front of him since she knew the way to the Miya's Inn.

"Perhaps, but I think it would be an educational experience for Akitsu, and Musubi to get out to stretch their legs. Not to mention meet new people," replied Naruto while both of his Sekirei mentioned were beside him, his hands on their shapely hips, and their heads resting on their side of his shoulders.

"You just want to grope their rears you pervert," commented Uzume while giving him a playful glare.

"And you are jealous of them because you want me to do that to you before we even get to Maison Izumo," countered Naruto with Uzume pouting and looking away slightly.

"Touché," replied Uzume at being found out.

"Ah...can we have sex after this?" asked Akitsu with Naruto smirking and Uzume sighing at the ice Sekirei's words.

Who knew Akitsu was a semi-sex addict?

"Patience Akitsu-chan. We just had sex earlier in the day," replied Naruto while giving her butt a firm squeeze.

"Ah...I know. Master made me scream," said Akitsu while blushing from his touch and the memory from earlier.

"Hey! Musubi screamed too! And louder then Akitsu!" proclaimed Musubi like it was a contest and wanted to prove herself in front of her Ashikabi.

"Ah...false," replied Akitsu while giving the girl a look that would be considered a glare for her to Musubi.

"Ladies, we don't discuss such things out in public where people can hear us. Don't make me spank one of you or order the other to put on panties they would have to wear for a full 24 hours," threatened Naruto with both women both nodding in understanding while Uzume smirked.

Musubi hated getting spankings while Akitsu loved them.

At the same time, Akitsu hated to wear panties because of her extra sensitive skin while Musubi had no problem with wearing them.

"Yes Master/Naruto-sama," replied Akitsu and Musubi submissively since neither wanted him to punish them with their select punishments.

"Damn Naruto. You sure know how to tame your Sekirei. Good thing too because we're here," replied Uzume before they stopped outside of the fence leading to Maison Izumo.

"Indeed. Let us go introduce myself and these two girls to your soon to be former land lady," said Naruto before walking to the front yard and was soon greeted by the woman who could only be Asama Miya.

"I'm glad you are back Uzume. And this must be the infamous Phantom Ashikabi I have heard so much about," said Miya while gauging Naruto for herself.

And surprisingly found her old instincts to draw a sword against a powerful foe suddenly twitch to life.

"Phantom Ashikabi? My name is Uzumaki Naruto. Whose dumb idea was it to name me that?" asked Naruto with a raised eyebrow while Miya giggled since she knew Seo and his Sekirei would act rashly if they heard his words.

"Well that would be a piece of trash I know. He's also an Ashikabi, but not a very good one. As to who I am, my name is Asama Miya. The owner of Maison Izumo Inn," replied Miya with Naruto frowning since he had never met another Ashikabi who knew about him to the point where they could give him a name.

"Ah...Master the lightning twins. The ones who were chasing down Musubi when she was unwinged," said Akitsu with Musubi nodding in agreement.

"Yeah! Those big meanies. They were chasing me before you showed up Naruto-sama. I bet they told their Ashikabi about you!" added Musubi while pounding her fist into her open palm.

"That makes sense. I'm glad I have such smart and perceptive Sekirei like you two," said Naruto before kissing them on the cheek and making them blush.

"Hey! What about me? Aren't I smart and perceptive?" asked Uzume while looking a bit hurt he didn't involve her in that.

"You are a pervert who likes to walk around naked in the morning without panties on to tease me," remarked Naruto with Uzume blushing and pouting at the same time while looking away from him.

"Jerk," mumbled Uzume before she froze and felt Miya looking at her with the Hanya out.

"Uzume, what is this about you walking around in an indecent fashion in front of others?" asked Miya while she unleashed multiple Hanya Masks at the poor girl.

"Come on Miya! Its not like I do it in public. Wait! I mean I was in a hotel suite with my Ashikabi in his room! I mean...please don't kill me!" pleaded Uzume while deciding to beg for mercy was the smarter move then constantly talking and getting her foot stuck in her mouth.

"Ah...she is scary," remarked Akitsu while pressing her head deeper into her Ashikabi's shoulders.

"So strong. Could I spar with her one day Naruto-sama?" asked Musubi while shivering in both fear and joy at seeing someone who could challenge her to a fight.

While not as strong as her Naruto-sama, Miya was still strong enough to be considered as a form of bar needed to be surpassed in order to get close to him.

"Maybe in the future Musubi. But for now, she will stop trying to intimidate my Sekirei," said Naruto before summoning his staff, spinning it around in his hand, and slamming it down with his chakra washing over the area to disperse Miya's Hanya.

Along with scaring every other Sekirei, animal, and insect in his presence who was not already bonded to him.

'Such power. I have never felt anything like that before today. Never!' thought Miya, as she wondered what Naruto really was, and if this was the reason why Takami feared to tell Homura anything.

Speaking of Homura.

"What the Hell was that?" asked Homura after appearing in his Sekirei outfit and scared out of his mind, yet ready for a fight all the same.

"What indeed," remarked Naruto while removing the Genjutsu from his eyes and body to show Miya what he looked like.

'Those three eyes. The horns. The staff. So Seo's Sekirei weren't making things up after all like I first believed,' thought Miya while sensing more of Naruto's power with each passing second.

"You! You did that?" asked Homura since he only saw Naruto from a distance when he had engaged Hibiki and Hikari with Akitsu so the fire Sekirei had assumed the former Scrapped Number was the one muscle at the time.

"Let's go inside Miya-san. We have much to talk about you and I," said Naruto calmly while ignoring Homura with Miya giving a nod and motioned them to follow.

"Please enter the living area and take a seat. I will make us all a nice pot of tea," replied Miya while they followed with Homura looking baffled by her words.

"M-Miya? What is going on?" asked Homura, as he was in his room one minute, and the next he was out here with a sudden urge to fight for his very life.

Matsu most likely hacked into several military bases right now and was readying to push the button for a nuclear strike on their current position.

"You want answers, come back inside, sit down in the living area, and shut up until we are all done talking," said Naruto with Homura sputtering and glaring at him.

"And who the Hell are you to order me around?!" demanded Homura while stopping his glare when Naruto gave one of his own.

"Attack me and found out!" answered Naruto in a demonic tone with his chakra spiking again and making Homura begin to sweat heavily in his presence.

"Ah...shall I terminate him Master?" asked Akitsu since she perceived Homura as a threat to her Ashikabi.

"Thanks for the offer Akitsu-chan, but Takami needs him for his duties, and he is also an unwinged Sekirei. We mustn't break the rules," replied Naruto calmly and sweetly to her before giving the woman a kiss on the cheek.

"Yes Master," replied Akitsu while blushing from the kiss he gave her and was ignoring the glares/pouting from the other two.

Walking into the living area, Naruto sat down at one end of the table where he put his staff on his lap, and motioned for his Sekirei to sit down. Akitsu one side and Musubi on his other with Uzume sitting down next to Akitsu. Homura soon came in and sat down next to Musubi while glaring at Naruto despite the fact the fire Sekirei had just been put in his place a few seconds ago. Strategically speaking, this all worked out for Naruto since everyone of his Sekirei had a clear shot to attack those in near or in front of them should they have to while here. Musubi could easily punch out Homura if Uzume didn't get him with her cloth and Akitsu herself was in a league all on her own even before she became his Sekirei. While Naruto sensed another presence in the house, he could tell this Sekirei was not the fighting type, but rather preferred brains to brawn, and was more then likely Sekirei # 02 Matsu from what Uzume told him about the red head.

Uzume couldn't hide anything from him when asked. Plus he may have threatened to not give her any sex for a week or until she caved. Did that make him a bastard? Maybe just a little, but considering all he needed to know about Maison Izumo, and who was inside of the Inn. was in her head...it was worth the glare he got from Uzume. To Uzume's credit, she caved within a time span of five seconds worth of resistance to him when the other two would have most likely surrendered under one.

"Here is the tea," said Miya before walking in with the tray.

"Thank you Miya-san. Uzume has told me a lot about you after I became her Ashikabi so I know a great about you from her Sekirei # 01," replied Naruto while being offered tea and felt there was no point in keeping anything from the now shocked Miya if he was to gain a possible ally in the future for his plans to work.

"I see. So Uzume told you about my title. I'm sure she also told you about my rules here in my Inn. when it comes to violence?" asked Miya with Naruto nodding.

"She did. Its funny really. Believe it or not, I have not had any good tasting tea when I am talking to someone peacefully like this since I was a very young adult. Good memories," said Naruto while sipping some tea.

"Your power is impressive for a human. Do you mind if I ask some questioned about your life?" asked Miya with Naruto shrugging.

"Go ahead. All I ask is you keep my secret from people just like I will keep yours from everyone else outside of this Inn," offered Naruto with Miya nodding since she didn't want it going around about her status as Sekirei # 01.

"Agreed," said Miya while sipping her own tea and ignoring the twitch of her other hand wanting to grab her sword to stab him through the chest.

"Then ask your questions Hanya of the North and I will answer them to the best of my ability if I can," replied Naruto with Miya focusing a great deal on him.

"You mentioned the past regarding having tea with someone in this setting. Why so long ago? And why only as a young adult?" asked Miya curiously while Naruto smiled sadly.

"Because no one wanted to be near me as a child. No one my age wanted to be my friend growing up. Well...this one girl did, but...she was so damn shy it was cute. She actually wanted to be more then friends with me. I was a dense idiot at the time and had no idea what love was growing up so I had no clue until much later right in the heat of battle for our very lives," explained Naruto before sipping his tea and sensed his Sekirei were sad from hearing that.

"But why were you without friends?" asked Miya with Naruto looking sad once more.

"Because everyone hated me. Well most of the people in my village hated me. The adults told their kids to stay away from me. I'll spare you the details, but lets just say life in my world wasn't pleasant growing up. But I endured, I proved the people around me that they were wrong to hate, and shun me for what I was to them. It felt good to make them eat their humble and crow pie. To watch them choke on it," remarked Naruto while keeping out the fact that some of the more die hard Naruto haters had at one point secretly tried to perform a coup. shortly after becoming Hokage.

They of course all died in secret and suffered slowly painful deaths by his very hands.

"Oh my! Well you sure showed them it seems," remarked Miya while giggling behind her sleeve.

"Indeed. Next couple of questions if you please," said Naruto while Homura surprisingly decided to ask a question.

"Just what the Hell are you?" asked Homura in a demanding tone, which got him a glare from Naruto's three Sekirei.

"Damn Homura. Rude much?" asked Uzume sarcastically with hint of anger in her tone.

"Yeah you big rude meanie! Where are your manners?" demanded Musubi while pouting and glaring at the same time.

"Ah...rude. Needs spanking," remarked Akitsu, which brought about sweat drops, Miya giggling, sputtering from Homura, and a chuckle from Naruto at the horrified look on the fire Sekirei's face.

"That's for his Ashikabi to one day do Akitsu, but you three are right. It was rude," said Naruto while Homura scowled at him again.

"Considering you have more power generating out of your body now then a power plant, I would like to know how that is remotely possible?!" questioned Homura before he was hit in the head with an ice cube by Akitsu.

"Ah...rude again," remarked Akitsu while Naruto smirked at her actions.

"Please refrain from throwing ice at Homura-san. And Naruto-san, if you could answer his question," said Miya while Homura rubbed his head and glared at Akitsu now.

"Very well. Akitsu show restraint in throwing things at the broody fantastic flamer. If only for me. As to the question asked by emo fire boy, I was once a human being, but now...now I am so much more," replied Naruto with Homura seething at being called those names and the vague answer.

"And what is that more be exactly?" asked Miya with Naruto smirking at her.

"I am a primordial God. A primordial God predating just about every single entity on this planet by quite a few millennia around the number of ten," replied Naruto while shocking Miya and Homura at his words.

"You? A God?! As if Minaka's ego is bad enough, we have to deal with someone like you trying to look the part too," commented Homura before he was hit hard in the head with a cinderblock size piece of ice.

"Akitsu," said Naruto giving a "please explain yourself" look while Akitsu arched her head down shyly.

"Ah...I showed restraint Master. I wanted to throw daggers, but changed my projectiles structure at the last moment," replied Akitsu while Naruto saw Homura groan in pain after being hit in the head with the now broken ice block.

"Fair enough. I'll forgive you this one time. Do it again and I'll have you wear underwear with itching powder in it for three days," said Naruto with Akitsu stiffening at the threat of punishment.

"Yes Master," replied Akitsu while moving closer to him and nuzzling closer to his body to show she wouldn't do it again.

"The action to Homura aside, must you allow your Sekirei to demean themselves for your own sexual gratification?" asked Miya with a scowl on her face.

"First, Homura was being a jerk so he got what he deserved from Akitsu-chan. Second, I don't demean my Sekirei in any shape, or form despite what you may think of me. Third, despite you being the strongest of your race, I don't really care what you think of me as an Ashikabi. Your thoughts on how I treat these three Sekirei here mean nothing to me and are none of your concern. You hold no power or authority beyond this house so do not presume you have a right to lecture me about my Sekirei," replied Naruto coldly with Miya scowling further at him.

"Tread carefully with your words Naruto-san. While what you say is partially truly, we are still in my house, and I will not be insulted in my house by anyone. Least of all one who claims to be a God," countered Miya in a deadly tone while the miasma aura she was now generating was spiking at dangerous levels.

"And I will not be judged by a Sekirei who abandoned her birds to a psychopath, who has turned them into a means of entertainment for a near genocidal tournament," Naruto shot back and was not at all bothered by how Miya's power shooting through the roof.

"Say one. more. word," threatened Miya while her eyes became cold and cruel looking.

The eyes of Sekirei # 01 Miya of the Discipline Squad.

"I'll say more then just one word. I am fixing your mess. I am helping your Sekirei find their destined ones where this unconscious idiot can't. I am working for M.B.I. and what you see in front of you are the Sekirei making up the secondary Discipline Squad. One which works in the shadows under my direct command," stated Naruto with Miya's eyes widening at his words in shock, followed by more anger, and fury with the miasma she had been oozing out now practically consuming the room.

With the exception being the area around Naruto and his Sekirei.

"Uh Naruto-kun, I think you should have waited to tell her that last part later on in the evening," remarked Uzume nervously while Miya narrowed her eyes at the two horned and three eyed Ashikabi.

"Why? She is weak. She has long since abandoned the way of the sword. Abandoned the Sekirei race. Her race. It is like Miya keeps telling you Uzume-chan. She is just a weak, helpless, old window running an Inn. here in Shinto Teito, and that is all she will ever be until the day she finally dies," replied Naruto while never looking away from Miya.

Which was a good thing too because as soon as he finished saying those words, Miya had drawn her sword from out of nowhere, and thrust it at his chest a sound barrier breaking speed.

Of course, even with the speed Miya used, it mattered little to Naruto since he had not only anticipated her reaction to his words, but also saw the motions with his eyes, and acted accordingly. He caught the blade with his finger tips, less then an inch from his chest where the heart was located, and held it there while the blade quivered from the act itself. The two stared at each other, eyes locked in their own form of silent combat, and neither one backing down.

"You are not welcome here M.B.I. trash," whispered Miya while Naruto looked unfazed by her words and actions.

"Even though I am currently under the employ of M.B.I. at the moment, I am no more a fan of Minaka then you are Miya-san. He is only a means to an end," replied Naruto in a deadly whisper of his own.

"So you say, yet here you are winging Sekirei yourself. One from my own Inn. no less," said Miya with Naruto narrowing his eyes at her.

"She reacted to me. It was a natural winging. All three of them were natural. As for the incident regarding whatever Uzume may have done, the slate for that has been wiped clean when she was winged by me," countered Naruto with Miya not budging from her position.

"And yet they do nothing to defend you from my sword," Miya shot back.

"They don't do anything because I have told them through the bond we share not to do anything. Believe me, they all wish to interfere, and don't only on my orders. Besides, you have already sacrificed sure footing for the killing stroke," said Naruto while seeing Miya's eyes flash with confusion until the pressing of a blade was felt on her long purple hair.

"What the Hell? How are there two of you? How can you wield a sword that big?!" asked Homura having awakened from his unconscious state and saw a second Naruto wielding a massive sword currently ready to behead Miya in an instant.

"I already told you Homura. I am a primordial God. Making a copy of myself is as easy as breathing," said the Shadow Clone of Naruto with the Kubikiribocho in his hands.

'How did he do that? I didn't even sense the second one,' thought Miya while she kept her eyes on the Naruto in front of her.

"You maybe strong Sekirei # 01, but it nothing compared to myself. However, I am not your enemy, and I don't wish us to be at each others throats from here on out foe the remainder of this stupid game. So I suggest a truce between us. One where in time we could become secret allies to one day overthrow Minaka and save the Sekirei from his perversions of your race. Your move Miya. What do you say?" said Naruto calmly, as he saw Miya look from him to his Shadow Clone to his Sekirei, and finally back to the man himself.

"Don't do it Miya. We can't trust him! He is the reason Takami is so afraid," protested Homura while seeing Miya contemplating Naruto's words.

"Takami is afraid of my power. Not of me. She fears I will one day unleash it on her for helping Minaka this far in his game, but such fears are misplaced. Funny as they are to me. I don't care if you trust me or not. What I do care about are my Sekirei. What I do care about are the Sekirei who have yet to be winged. Who have been forcibly winged. Who are abused by these Ashikabi. Minaka does nothing because it amuses him for his game. He may have formed a Discipline Squad to keep the more rowdy Ashikabi in line, but all of his here know the squad is not worth the weight of their own skills and strength. I am not going to allow his sloppy actions or his poorly formed Discipline Squad to destroy what is left of the Sekirei," countered Naruto while Miya looked him right in the eyes for any deception.

And found none.

"Very well. I'll accept this truce between us. For now," said Miya before slowly removing the sword from his finger tips and away from him while the Shadow Clone with the giant sword over her head vanished.

And a collective sigh of relief from all spectators was let out.

"Thank you for your time and hospitality Miya-san. It has been...interesting to say the least. Sadly, we must go once all of Uzume's belongings are packed up," said Naruto before getting up from his position and headed for Uzume's room.

"How could you even agree to a truce with him Miya? He works for M.B.I. and Minaka!" protested Homura once the group was out of the room.

"Because for all of my strength and my power...I am not strong enough to defeat him in combat," replied Miya with her eyes closed and focused on restraining that dark part of her personality.

"What? But...But you are Sekirei # 01! The Pillar of all the Sekirei!" How...How can he be stronger then you?!" protested Homura while Miya took a few deep breaths.

"Because it is as he said Homura. That man is not a man. Naruto-san is indeed what he claims to be in life. A primordial God if there ever was one," answered Miya with a sense of defeat and acceptance of said defeat in her tone of voice.

(With Naruto)

"You were a little harsh on Miya back there Naruto," commented Uzume with Naruto taking out a storage scroll and helped put all of the girl's belongs into it.

"I was being honest," said Naruto calmly while putting some of the more childish things into the scroll while Uzume handled all her clothing and unmentionables.

Akitsu and Musubi were to stand by the door to guard them should Homura decide to get any ideas.

"Yeah I know that, but...but its not like she decided to up and abandoned every single Sekirei on purpose. What could she have honestly done? Minaka has us under his thumb and can turn us all off like a lamp if he wants. And without feeling any remorse on the issue I might add," replied Uzume while Naruto didn't say anything at first.

"I know. I just...I just can't stand the idea of a woman like her simply abandoning her own people despite her losses. The most powerful of all 108 Sekirei doing absolutely nothing as Minaka manipulates his stupid game to have players, who would have the Sekirei they wing fight each other. Some of which will be to the death. And all the while, Miya sits in this house, plays the humble landlady, and poor widow while her entire race slowly dies out. Miya has my sympathies to a point over the loss of her husband, but not any form of pity when it comes to the Sekirei she should be trying, and is currently failing to protect right now," said Naruto while looking back at Uzume, who grimaced at his words, yet nodded nonetheless, and knew was right.

For all her power as the Pillar of the Sekirei, Miya had the mobility of a pillar sunk deep into the sand of a desert. It looked imposing from a distance depending on the design of it, but the fact remains once you get close to the structure, the pillar was just stood there, and did nothing but take whatever hits came toward it. Even if a pillar repels most things upon contact, there were others that could move around it, and keep going unimpeded with its intended purpose.

Naruto and (unfortunately) Minaka were the latter.

"I see your point," said Uzume since she couldn't fault her Ashikabi for being right about this issue.

It wasn't long before they finished packing Uzume's things. Walking out of the now much emptier room, they made their way to the stairs, storage scrolls with the contents within placed at his hip. But as they got to the steps, Naruto stopped before focusing on the wall in front of him, and walked toward it.

"Ah...Ashikabi-sama?" asked Akitsu while wondering what had made her Ashikabi go on this sudden detour.

"This wall here is not a wall Akitsu. It is a secret room," stated Naruto while knocking on it and hearing the hollow sound it made.

"Go away! No one is in here!" exclaimed a terrified female voice.

"The wall spoke!" exclaimed Musubi making Uzume sweat dropped.

"Ah...false. The Sekirei behind the wall spoke," said Akitsu while Naruto smirked.

"If there is no one in there, I shouldn't have gotten a response, correct?" commented an amused Naruto to the person behind the secret door and heard the person smacking their head against something hard.

"Stupid! Stupid! How could Matsu-tan be so stupid?!" said the Sekirei, who was clearly named Matsu now began hurting herself.

"Are you going to unlock the door Matsu? Or do I have to open the hard way?" asked Naruto while waiting for Matsu's response.

"Uh...I'm sorry. The one named Matsu is not here right now. Please leave a message at the sound of the 'beep!' and she will get back to you when possible. Beep!" said Matsu with Naruto sighing.

"Akitsu, freeze the door. Oh and make sure it is only the door," said Naruto with Akitsu nodding to his command.

"Yes Master," replied Akitsu before putting her hand on the hidden door and started to freeze it.

"Wait! You don't have to that. Matsu! Open the door right now!" exclaimed Uzume while seeing the ice Akitsu generated spread out until the hidden door fully revealed itself to them in its frozen state.

"Why did you freeze the door Naruto-sama?" asked Musubi since she knew Naruto could easily knock the door down with a single punch or have her do it.

"So I could do this Musubi," replied Naruto before motioning Akitsu to stop and he gave the door a flick if his finger.

And turned the door into little tiny pieces before entering the room.

"Stay back! Stay back! I'm warning you! I'm like a wild tiger when cornered!" exclaimed Matsu making cat like noises and claw like motions.

All the while backing up against her giant computer center with a dozen monitors active and showing they were all aimed at the living area.

Meaning she had seen and heard everything that happened in the living area.

"Seriously? From what you told Uzume one time when drunk, you only won one fight against Karasuba, and that was in a game of chess...which you secretly cheated in by the way. Honestly, taking your time so she would lose her temper, destroy the board, and storm off is not much of a win," said Naruto with Matsu pausing in her actions before slumping in defeat.

"Uzume-tan! Why did you reveal that to him?!" whined Matsu with Uzume appearing and looking sheepish.

"Sorry Matsu. But Naruto is my Ashikabi and I couldn't help myself when he asked about Maison Izumo," replied Uzume while laughing nervously.

"That and you can't resist that thing I do with my tongue, which drives you crazy when we couple," remarked Naruto mischievously and making Uzume blush.

"Naruto! Not cool!" exclaimed Uzume while Matsu was now laughing like a pervy old man.

"Uzume-tan got to do what Matsu can only read about in magazines," remarked Matsu while she laughed before pouting and looked depressed over the fact Uzume got to have hot passionate sex with the his Godly creature for an Ashikabi.

While she was here in this little dark hole, hiding from the hounds of M.B.I. for her past actions, and peeping when possible when Miya wasn't around. Even then, Miya had made sure she knew certain...things were not tolerated at Maison Izumo, and Matsu was only allowed the magazines...provided they were kept in her room.

So not fair!

"From what Uzume told me, you might be reacting to someone," remarked Naruto with Matsu tensing and looking nervous.

"I was. I mean I am! I just...uh...things were and have been getting...complicated for me ever since I was on the run from M.B.I. with Uzume-tan's help," replied Matsu since she remembered him saying he worked for the company and thus Minaka by extension.

"And thus hiding from Minaka for said actions surrounding your escape. Which includes anyone working for M.B.I. and thus myself too," concluded Naruto with Matsu looking at him nervously.

"Yep! Matsu was a very bad girl and did something naughty. But Matsu had to do it for the good of the Sekirei! Please don't turn me in!" pleaded Matsu while Naruto scratched the side of his head.

"I won't ask what you did exactly to make you part of the M.B.I. Most Wanted List since I'm sure plausible deniability is best for all of us in this case. Personally, I don't care what you did since it hurt Minaka, and I say good for you. I only came to Maison Izumo to get Uzume's things and inform Miya about myself, which as you know spiraled right out of control. Even if Minaka ordered me to bring you in for questioning after finding out you were here, I'd tell him to get you himself, and leave me out of it," said Naruto with Matsu now looking floored by his words.

"Damn the consequences?" asked Matsu with Naruto nodding.

"Damn the consequence," replied Naruto firmly though he knew Minaka would definitely think twice before punishing him.

As for Matsu, she was blushing up a storm at his words. Uzume wasn't wrong about her reacting to someone, but couldn't admit that the reaction was toward Naruto himself. She never knew it was him exactly, but after thinking of the title "Phantom Ashikabi" that Seo's Sekirei had decided to give him, her pulse would quicken, and it became clear who her Ashikabi was. But the reaction had stopped like a train wreck when Naruto had told Miya that he was in fact an agent of M.B.I. and was forming his own Discipline Squad with the Sekirei he had winged.

Now, the reaction was returning with gusto. This Godly entity standing before her, who was actually stronger then Miya, was telling Matsu that he was not loyal to M.B.I. like she had first assumed. Rather, he was using M.B.I. for the purpose of saving the Sekirei in this game, and didn't care what Minaka wanted in terms of the game's success. Not only that, but Naruto had practically said any Sekirei he winged would get a clean slate in terms of wiping past offenses done to M.B.I. clean off.

And she was reacting to him! Hot damn!

"Um...what if I told you that I was reacting to you?" asked Matsu with Naruto raising his eyebrow at her.

"I knew it! I knew you were reacting to him!" exclaimed Uzume while Naruto turning to look at her.

"And how do you know that?" asked Naruto with Uzume looking sheepish.

"I heard Matsu masturbating once outside her door one day when Miya was out. She was all 'Phantom Ashikabi-sama, I need your DNA. Please calm me down with it in all over my body!'" answered Uzume with Matsu's face now matching her hair in terms of color.

"UZUME-TAN!" yelled Matsu in despair since she wasn't sure how Naruto would take that and put her winging at risk.

"What? You did," replied Uzume with a grin still on her face.

"Regardless, do you want to be winged by me Matsu?" asked Naruto with Matsu nodding quickly.

"Yes! Matsu wanted it so badly since you came here to the house and Matsu saw you on the cameras watching over the house," replied Matsu before she was in front of him a second later and grabbing onto his trench coat.

"Then what is stopping you?" asked Naruto with a smile before Matsu realized what he just said and quickly acted by grabbing his face before planting a massive kiss on his lips.

Which brought about her wings and emergence.

"Wisdom of my pledge, bestow the teachings of the world, to my Ashikabi!" declared a happy Matsu while feeling the power from the winging made her feel better then she did in a long time.

"It is a good thing you have the stamina of a God to match your title as one Naruto-kun. Otherwise, I would be a bit concerned about you satisfying all of us in bed," commented Uzume before she squeaked when she felt a sharp sting on her butt and turned around to see a Shadow Clone of her Ashikabi standing there with a smirk before dispelling.

"I will punish you later for that comment. For now, let's pack up Matsu's things, and take her with us," said Naruto calmly with Matsu looking happy, but at the same time she was a bit sad, and Naruto had an idea on why that was the case.

"Could Matsu say goodbye to Miya-tan? She took me in and protected Matsu from the threats M.B.I. posed to my health," said Matsu with Naruto nodding.

"Sure. Take your time," replied Naruto since he could easily Kamui all of them to the hotel suite from here.

The goodbyes shared was filled with a depressing sadness since Miya was losing not only her eyes and ears around the house and Shinto Teito with Matsu's hacking skills. Miya felt like she was hearing and giving a goodbye to a dear friend she had known for all of her life while on this planet. Glancing past Matsu to Naruto and his three Sekirei, she narrowed her eyes at him with a calculating stare. The woman could easily sense all of his Sekirei loved the strange man, which was understandable giving the bond formed by it causing a sense of "instant love" regardless if it was natural or not. But Miya could tell these three, plus Matsu now, had all reacted naturally to Naruto, and he loved them back.

She still didn't trust him. Not entirely given his allegiance to M.B.I. and not taking it from Minaka by force like she knew he could. She didn't know why he chose to side with the mad man over taking over, but Miya wasn't in a position to question Naruto on it, and she highly doubted the primordial God would even give her one. Much less an honest one.

"I am trusting you will take care of Matsu while she is under your care Naruto-san. I have known her all my life and one of the few left in this world precious to me. If anything bad were to befall her because of your actions...one way or another I will find a way to kill you. God or not," said Miya firmly with her eyes showing the woman's convictions on the issue.

"Which means I have nothing to worry about because nothing bad will happen to her or Uzume, Akitsu, and Musubi on my watch," countered Naruto though he understood her reasons for the threat.

Even a pillar can hurt someone if enough force is provided when hitting one and aimed correctly.

With the goodbyes for now, Naruto informed Miya that he wanted Matsu's room to be kept open for the red hair Sekirei in case something did go wrong, and they needed to go to Maison Izumo as a fall back location. Naturally, he intended to pay the woman for said room, and ensure Miya didn't have to raise the rent of her Inn after losing two tenants in a single day. If need be, Naruto would send some people her way if the opportunity came along, and ensure the Inn stayed open for business.

Miya accepted the offer since it would be helpful if such a thing happened.

Ignoring Homura's glare at him, Naruto used his Kamui to transport everyone to his hotel suite, and smirked knowing the pretty boy fire Sekirei would simply sputter if not scowl in outrage. It was so much fun to teasing all of the brooders and emos of the world that it almost wasn't funny. Almost.

Miya sighed soon after the group left. Her Inn now feeling emptier now that Uzume and Matsu were no longer here. As loathe as she despised Matsu perversity and Uzume's own unique outlook on life, Miya did care about them, and hoped their Ashikabi wasn't one of those abusive ones currently roaming around Shinto Teito. The last thing Miya wanted for either of them or the other Sekirei with Naruto were to suffer a life of being forced to do things they normally wouldn't do.

Her musing on the matter were ended when she heard a semi-girlish scream from outside, followed by a crashing sound of someone hitting the tree in the yard, and another sound of someone falling out of the tree onto the ground. Curious, Miya walked outside while Homura decided to hide his attire as the Guardian of Unwinged Sekirei and fire Sekirei by extension. When Miya walked outside, she saw the sight of three people lying in a big jumbled mess with two being Sekirei, and the one Ashikabi in the center of it.

"I told you the jump was too high and too far," commented the Sekirei with the Naginata in her hand.

"Sorry! I normally can jump easily enough on my own with my hammer. But doing it for two others threw off my internal calculations," replied the Sekirei in a semi-squeaked tone with the giant hammer in her hands.

"Well, at least the important thing is the three of us are all right," said the Ashikabi before noticing Miya staring at them and he laughed nervously.

"Hello. May I ask what you three are doing on my property and in such lewd positions?" questioned Miya while only half joking since she knew they weren't doing anything of that nature.

Though they didn't need to know that.

"Ah! Sorry Ma'am. My name is Sahashi Minato. These two friends of mine are Kaho and Yashima. We are looking for a place to stay for awhile. Do you by chance know of one around here?," introduced Minato with Miya smiling and letting out a giggle at his quick speaking mannerism.

"Actually, I do know of one place. Right here at Maison Izumo. Come right on in and I will explain things to you along with your...friends," replied Miya while fixing both Kaho and Yashima with a knowing look saying she knew they were Sekirei.

Perhaps life wouldn't be so dull for Miya after all with these three in the house...so long as they didn't break any of the rules.

(With Naruto and his Sekirei)

"Wow! How did you do that? An opening between dimensions from one point to another would take incredible power and control. I didn't think anyone could manipulate space and time in such a manner?" asked Matsu with Naruto raising an eyebrow at her.

"How are you familiar with such things?" asked Naruto curiously while Matsu puffed her cheeks at him.

"Please! Give me some credit here Naruto-tan! I'm a genius! While other Sekirei focus on their elemental powers or physical fighting, I use the power of my mind. I am what you would call a Brain Sekirei. I can use my powers to hack into any computer or electronic device on the planet," explained Matsu while Naruto nodding in approval.

"Really? That's excellent news! Uzume mentioned it earlier, but it slipped my mind after everything that just happened. I am in need of a Sekirei of such skill given this new era I have found myself in. For all of my powers and abilities, I am not what you would call a technologically sound person," replied Naruto with Matsu's eyes beaming with joy that her abilities would be quite useful to her new Ashikabi.

"Yep! Not only that, but I was part of the First Generation Discipline Squad so I have a bit of experience when it comes to the tactical implications of my abilities," added Matsu while Naruto smirked at that since it just gave him an additional edge over Minaka and Higa when the time was right to crush them.

He would save Mikogami for last if possible. The Ashikabi of the South had the most Sekirei of anyone, most of which were forcibly winged sadly enough. If Naruto were to go after him now, then M.B.I. would swoop in, and claim all of the deactivated Sekirei when the brat himself was...removed from the game.

The last thing Naruto wanted was for the Sekirei taken to be brought back to the company labs or some other place Minaka could work his sick experimental fantasies on them.

"I am currently infiltrating Izumi Higa's ranks as one of his new Doctors at the hospital he owns. I suspect Higa is using it as a front in some manner to find Sekirei or injured Ashikabi who have Sekirei. I believe if he can force the Ashikabi into submission by either blackmail or force, he can extend it to the Sekirei themselves. Not only that, but I suspect Higa has been forcibly winging Sekirei against their will, and possibly some other nefarious plans for them once the game is over...should he win," said Naruto with Matsu frowning since she knew the name Izumi Higa well due to the man popping up in her system a lot for having winged quite a few Sekirei.

All of which were by force.

"You are right about that Naruto-tan. Higa has done this in the past. Just like Mikogami, the Ashikabi of the South. The only difference is Mikogami has more time on his hands due to being a kid and from a wealthy family and can find them faster because of it. Higa counters this by blackmailing, forcing, and even bribing Ashikabi to fight for him when necessary. He even has an Ashikabi named Kakizaki working directly for him and has a Brain Sekirei Kochou under his command with similar abilities like mine. Of course they are not up to par with me, but one of the factors I suspect behind it is due to Kakizaki not truly caring for Kochou," said Matsu while Naruto looking surprised by this.

"How do you know that?" asked Naruto since he wasn't sure Sekirei could tell that about someone they have never even met.

"When I setup shop at Miya-tan's home to monitor the progress of the Sekirei Plan, I also made sure to create a computer program detecting if a Sekirei's winging was natural, or forced by an Ashikabi. All Sekirei winged by an Ashikabi are put into the database at M.B.I. so they know which Sekirei are winged by which Ashikabi. I then used data based on the energy wave patterns of a Sekirei's Tama when winged naturally compared to the opposite to determine which was which in the future. Sadly, many of the Sekirei winged already have been forced into having an Ashikabi," replied Matsu with Naruto frowning at this.

"Namely two out of three major Ashikabi throughout Shinto Teito being chief among them," concluded Naruto with Matsu nodding.

"Yes. With a few rogues trying to follow in their example, but with little to no success due to the lack of resources, or knowing when a Sekirei is going to be let out of the labs to find their Ashikabi," said Matsu while Naruto sighing since she had a point.

Higa basically had Kakizaki's Brain Sekirei on retainer while Mikogami could bribe any grunt at M.B.I. for information on when a Sekirei was let out into the world.

"Meaning my work ahead of me in protecting your Sekirei sisters is going to get difficult in the future and revealing myself along with my powers might happen sooner over later to my enemies," remarked Naruto with a grimace before he was instantly hugged from all sides by each of his Sekirei.

"Don't worry Naruto-sama. Musubi will help you!" exclaimed Musubi happily while she believed in her Ashikabi in doing the right thing.

"Ah...me too," added Akitsu while rubbing her face against him.

"You have my support too," said Uzume since she had a feeling Higa's goons were at the hospital scouting for her and other Sekirei that were there.

She shuddered to think what would have happened if they did.

"And Matsu will more then happily cause all sorts of chaos for you Naruto-tan. Just say the word and I can mess with Higa's personal and business financials. I can turn him from a rich successful business man into a dirt poor baka in a matter of moments!" exclaimed Matsu happily in front of him while grinning and laughing evilly.

While her hands snaked down to his butt to grope him.

"Thank you all for the support. I know we can fix this Sekirei Plan before things spiral out of control," replied Naruto while they hugged him tighter.

Until Matsu giggled like the pervert.

"Oh Naruto-tan. Matsu wants her special experimental alone time with her Ashikabi. I need your hot sticky DNA to cool me down," moaned Matsu while rubbing against him in a sensual and aggressive manner.

'And there ends the happy bonding moment,' thought Naruto while sensing his other three Sekirei were not willing to let go of him right away.

"Hey! You share like everyone else," protested Uzume while hugging him tighter and the other two doing the same.

"Uzume is right! You have to share!" exclaimed Musubi while pouting childishly at the red head.

"Ah...share," remarked Akitsu while not wanting Matsu to have him all to herself right now.

"Ladies, you each had your own special alone time with me after your winging. It would be rude to deny Matsu her own," commented Naruto with the girls moaning in protest while Matsu kept laughing a like a pervert.

"I know, but its late at night now. Can't she get her alone time later?" countered Uzume while Naruto shook his head no.

"No. Besides, its not like I will leave you girls to sleep alone without me," replied Naruto before he made a Shadow Clone for each Sekirei to have or themselves.

"You can copy yourself?!" questioned Matsu in shock.

"Yep! Each Shadow Clone here has enough energy for you three and then some should any of you wish to have your own 'alone time' with them," explained Naruto with Uzume, Akitsu, and Musubi brightening up when hearing that.

"Thank you so much Naruto-sama! You are truly a loving Ashikabi!" exclaimed Musubi while clinging to the nearest Shadow Clone and smiling happily at being held by him in some form.

"Ah...I want a spanking tonight," remarked Akitsu when she walked over to the Shadow Clone she wanted and held him tightly.

"You better deliver in having lots of energy because I have needs," said Uzume while poking the chest of her chosen Shadow Clone of Naruto.

"Don't worry Uzume. Each one will deliver," replied the actual Naruto before signaling his Shadow Clones mentally to take care of each Sekirei assigned to them to a separate room.

"You. Me. Bedroom. Experimentation. NOW!" demanded Matsu hungrily now that the interruptions were over and nothing was standing her way of finally having sex with her Ashikabi.

"Such a needy Sekirei I have winged," commented Naruto while snaking his hand to her ass and lifting her up with ease while Matsu locked her legs tightly around his hips.

"You better believe it," replied Matsu before kissing him hungrily and Naruto returned it while using his map within his mind of the room to walk toward the door leading to their bedroom.

It would be a very long night for everyone.

(A/N: YAY! An update for all. Sorry this wasn't out sooner. Was delayed by personal reasons. Nothing serious, but it kept me from the computer. Until next time...PEACE!)
