Author's Note

So, maybe the transition to the time skip was a bit abrupt. But, you know what? Life happens out of nowhere. Sure, I could probably stretch it out some more, but I felt that would be too boring. I mainly just wanted to move ahead to the fun stuff.

Kurogano Yokaze: Yeah, there's definitely going to be a later explanation of things. But be warned, a lot of it is BS that I pulled from my ass. As for the timeskip, yeah, I just thought that things were moving a bit too slowly, and a timeskip is just what was needed for more fresh ideas in my mind. Especially since he's getting training, so bit more experience and creativity for having fun. As for those Kin and Tayuya pics, those are actually perfect! Well, Kin is completely perfect, the Tayuya one I'd prefer a few changes. But yeah, thanks for those!

Chapter 18: The Chapter That Explains What Happens During the Time Skip

Jiraiya let out a sigh as he managed to make his way to the small compound on the outskirts of Kiri. The mist was a bit thinner than normal, but it wasn't by much. Why was he sent out to get the boy again? Right, he was the only one who had been here before. As he finally saw the compound in his sight, he let out another sigh, this time of relief. He thought he could make it late at night, but the mist blocked his view of the moon. Looking over the horizon, he could see the sun beginning to rise.

It was not as big as the Hyuga compound in Konoha, but it still was large enough to be built outside the main village. The style was still similar to the Hyuga, being a traditional place, but it always had that charming aesthetic. Out of the mist, two teen aged boys appeared, blocking him from further entry.

"I'm here to see Ichiro. Time for Yoichi to come back to Konoha." He stated, the boys looking to each other before relaxing.

"Finally…" One of them muttered as they led him in. Jiraiya raised an eyebrow slightly but didn't say anything. From what he knew about the Sakata clan, these were most likely Yoichi's cousins. They took him to a room close to the center of the compound, bowing before him before moving away. Jiraiya entered, coming across a familiar face.

"Ah, Lord Jiraiya. Finally that time, I see. He's been getting anxious." Ichiro Sakata looked no different from the past two years, except with a few more wrinkles and maybe a bit less hair. Jiraiya nodded, taking a seat that he was offered.

"Before he comes by to leave, I'd like you to tell me how he's progressed." Ichiro looked down with a sigh. Jiraiya had a bad feeling.

"Well, you see… he's completely surpassed my expectations. He managed to learn a lot on his own that I thought he would have needed to be taught. After the first year, I had nothing left to teach him, him mastering all the basics he would need. It was admittedly a rough start, but he quickly got the hang of everything I gave him." Jiraiya raised an eyebrow, nodding slowly.

"That sounds impressive… So why didn't he request to return sooner?"

"He spent some time in Kiri, getting close to the Mizukage herself. She took a liking to him, not only having some of her more trusted jonin give him advice for his jutsus, but even assisting him in going to Iwa and Kumo. I don't know if you've heard, but our clan's technique makes our chakra control extremely precise. So precise, that it is almost impossible to make use of jutsus like others can. Every Sakata can do the basics, but we all have to create our own way to manipulate the elements outside of just hand seals. Going to the other villages further helped him create his own techniques, something that was not thought of in previous generations." Jiraiya had heard of the basis, but this was a bit deeper than he thought.

"Right, and I also heard that your clan has better access to multiple elements." Ichiro nodded, pouring them both a cup of hot tea.

"Indeed we do. I and my father were able to use all five elements equally. Haru couldn't use a bit of lightning to save his life. A bit funny, considering how Yoichi told me his main element is lightning, but can hardly use fire, which was his father's main element. Yoichi at least has progressed to be able to light a small campfire, but that's about it." They both took a drink of the tea, the taste surprising Jiraiya at how sweet it was. Ichiro let out a hearty chuckle.

"Ah, I forgot to mention. Most member of our clan aren't fans of bitter, but enjoy things that are sweet. Perhaps a bit too much. I can get you something else if you'd like." Jiraiya shook his head.

"Thank you, but I'd like to see Yoichi first." Ichiro seemed to grimace at that. "Something wrong?"

"You see, remember how I told you the Mizukage had taken a liking to him…?"

Yoichi sat perfectly still beneath a small waterfall, his eyes closed. Clad in only swim trunks, he had his legs crossed beneath him, his hands holding the 'rat' hand seal, and his breathing smooth and steady. He had learned that meditation was integral to releasing the negativity that was stored in his body. The waterfall was just a substitute for a shower.

"Yoichi-kun~! I made breakfast~!" He heard, breaking out of his meditative state with a smirk. He stood up, walking across the small pond to the house in front of him. A flick of his wrist and he wasn't completely dry, but wouldn't be dripping wet.

"You know, for someone your status, I wouldn't think you would ever cook." He said, his voice deepened since two years ago. He stood a good three inches taller, his body more muscular from training, but his eyes still shined in a mesmerizing color show.

"For someone of your status, you shouldn't be complaining." The red-headed Mizukage shot back, clad in a small cooking apron. And nothing else. Smirking, he walked over, wrapping his arms around her waist.

"I'm going to miss you." He said, leaning in to kiss her neck, the kage leaning back into his embrace, tilting her head to one side, hands placed on top of his.

"Do you have to leave?" She whined, Yoichi chuckling.

"I've told you before, I'm not one to stay attached to a single girl. I've got others who are waiting for me." Mei pouted.

"Oh, right. Those girls back in Konoha you've been writing to. Why not just have them come here? It's easier than me leaving to stay with you." He shook his head, sighing.

"I belong in Konoha. You belong here. I'll make sure to visit, you know that. But, you know the main reason why you have to stay, right?" His hands moved up and under the apron, finding her nipples to pinch them, finding them already hard. She let out a moan, her hands undoing the apron to give him better access.

"Of course… Master…" She let out, hips rolling back. Yoichi smirked, sliding out of the swim trunks, pressing his length between her rear cheeks, Mei shivering in anticipation.

"Good girl… now, how about one last time before I leave…?" It wasn't even a question. Lifting herself up, she spread her legs enough for her to sink down on his cock, the thick length pushing her open more. His hands idly played with her D-cup breasts. Or were they double Ds? He already forgot. But Mei's body didn't forget him, feeling his length slide perfectly inside her.

"You know, you're never going to be satisfied by another cock. Your cunt's been shaped to fit me perfect~" He teased, Mei groaning out as she felt her cervix being pushed against. She knew that if either of them went just a bit rougher than usual, then his cock would push right in.

"I wouldn't dare to have another cock inside me, Master~!" She almost squealed, Yoichi smirking at her answer, bending her over the table before beginning to move his hips roughly, not even taking things slow. But her knew Mei loved it, and she did, evident from how her eyes rolled up, arms outstretched in an attempt to grab onto the edge, but to no avail. She was perfectly trained to love his cock at this point, and she knew it. She couldn't resist. She felt it a sin to resist him.

She was practically his puppet. If it wasn't for his laidback and carefree nature, he could have easily used her to manipulate Kiri to how he chose. In fact, the only reason he didn't at this point outside of his nature, was because he needed her to help him with something that she gladly agreed to.

While it was the last time he might be with Mei for a while, the sex was practically the same as always, him roughly thrusting into her over and over until he deposited several loads inside her. She wouldn't get pregnant, of course. He learned for a girl to get pregnant, she would need a third mark, which would be located right beneath her navel. Once that was on her, her body was guaranteed to get pregnant the next time he came in her.

To Mei's disappointment, he would stop after only giving her a single load, but even one was heavy on cum, Mei always feeling her womb expanding some. It wouldn't be visible as it was, but if he had gone a couple more rounds, it would have become more apparent. Pulling out of her, he turned a chair to the side, beginning to eat the breakfast she had cooked for him. As for herself?

"Don't forget to clean me off." He stated, but Mei didn't forget, already pushing herself off the table to kneel in front of him, taking his length into her mouth, feeling her jaw stretch a bit. She could have sworn he wasn't this big the first time they fucked.

Yoichi let out a pleasured grunt, sitting back as one hand fed him, the other running through the Mizukage's locks. Life was definitely good, and he had a feeling it would get better.

After an hour of waiting, Yoichi returned to his grandfather's compound, being told by one of his cousins that Jiraiya had been waiting. He thanked him, the other sneering at him, before walking off. He easily found his way to where his grandfather and Jiraiya had been talking.

"Hey! Sorry for making you wait. Wasn't expecting you so early. Had to say a few goodbyes." It was true at least. Jiraiya and Ichiro both looked to him, looking him up and down. Yoichi had decided to change out his old outfit for something even more to his liking, He wore a dark blue shirt with his clan's crest on the back beneath a dark green jacket that he kept open, the inside lined with pockets, with dark blue pants that had a few scrolls hanging off his waist. It was simple and easy to hide in. The colors mainly inspired from his grandfather.

"Yoichi, my boy, you've done more than I could expect of you. You've made me proud, and I'm sure your father would be proud too." Ichiro said, standing up and placing a hand on his grandson's shoulder. Yoichi gave him a soft smile and a nod.

"Minus the harem part, though. Other than that, I feel like he's proud of me." His grandfather let out a laugh, patting him on the back.

"Just know you and your girls are welcome here anytime." He said, Yoichi surprising him with a hug, which he returned, before breaking away.

"So, should we head out now? I've got everything I need on me." He said, patting his jacket. Jiraiya stood up, looking visibly tired.

"Yeah, we'll get as far as we can. I've been traveling all night. Your grandfather offered me a place to rest, but the air's just too damp." He said, the two of them walking out of the complex slowly.

"Oh, don't worry, I've been working on some more practical jutsu than fighting." Jiraiya raised an eyebrow, the two of them stopping just outside the complex.

"What do you mean by that?" Yoichi smirked at him.

"Hold onto my shoulder. Just try to catch me at the end, the distance will take up most of my chakra. Oh, and don't open your mouth and close your eyes" Jiraiya was skeptical, but decided to humor him, placing his hand on Yoichi's shoulder and doing so. The boy made a few handsigns, not calling a technique name, before they both quickly sunk into the ground, leaving no trace of where they went.

The past two years could have been absolute agony for Yoichi's girls back in Konoha. In fact, for the first four months of him being away, Satsuki and Naruko were the ones who had to keep them from falling into a deeper depression. It wasn't until they got their first letter from Yoichi, asking for their forgiveness, that they realized what they needed to do. While they were his girls, they didn't have to rely on him completely. In fact, he relied on them even more. That really kicked them into gear, deciding to train and work harder for when he got back. It wasn't long before they managed to get enough money to start working on a secret project for him as a surprise.

Ino was still the biggest bread winner of the six, working more as a model as she stopped working at her family's shop, much to her parent's mutual happiness and disappointment. Of course, she didn't stop her shinobi training, actually beginning to integrate them together, helping start a fashion magazine directed to kunoichi.

Temari, however, took up beng Ino's replacement, having grown to enjoy working at the flower shop. Growing up in Suna, flowers were fairly rare, adding an extra sense of wonder to them for her. She found her own assistant there in Tayuya, who had been perhaps the most distraught, not knowing what to do without Yoichi there. But, after a good pep talk, she decided that this was a chance to get stronger and help protect him.

Kin continued as she planned, staying out of shinobi business to focus on taking care of the house while Yoichi was away. While she and Temari still cooked together, she began to cook more on her own, getting a part-job as a cook for a small ramen stand.

Then there was Naruko and Satsuki. They had both been helped as much as they could to figure out what exactly cause them to switch with their counterparts. However, the only trigger they could find was their clash in the Valley of the End, where they both blacked out. It was determined that somehow that was the cause, but trying to replicate it only ended with them both being hurt.

So, they decided to stay in this universe, getting to introduce themselves to people they partially knew. However, to help out with paying for groceries and their own cash, they both were recommended for their own part-time modelling jobs by Ino. While the other girls declined, not being interested, Naruko and Satsuki felt they should at least try, and they found to enjoy it.

However, they were both still affected by Yoichi, even if it wasn't shown as much as the other girls. For Satsuki, outsde of the modeling, she would be training hard, getting assistance from this Kakashi, who she found out had knowledge of different moves from the other.

Naruko would have things happen to her a bit differently from the rest. From what most people saw, she would be training under Jiraiya, picking up where her training stopped before. However, while Jiraiya had planned to take Naruto away for training to protect him from the Akatsuki, Naruko didn't need any protection, the nine-tail's chakra no longer in her.

In reality, the chakra hadn't gone anywhere, it had mixed in with her own. She didn't have the Nine-tails' chakra, just its power. The essence of the best itself was gone. But, it still came at a price. Unbeknownst to the other girls, and so far only Lady Tsunade herself, her body changed to be more… fox-like. While she didn't grow ears or a tail, her instincts were more animal in nature, her sense heightened. She had to change her entire fighting style just because it no longer felt natural, as it should have been.

The worst of it came from the dreams. The first dream she had of Yoichi hadn't been an actual dream, but a genjutsu, him wanting to see what she felt the most negatively about, which was her fear of being useless to others. However, since then, her dreams continued in the same way the genjutsu had, waking up in the middle of the night to the need of release, which she couldn't help but supply herself. Eventually, she began to experiment with herself when the temptation became too much.

It started by her going out, and buying a simple collar. There was no reason for it other than the fact that it intrigued her. That same night, she decided to put it on herself, and it just felt… right. Looking at herself in a mirror, she felt like she was a pet to be owned, and that was what she wanted. From there, her nights became about her fantasizing of having an owner to treat her properly. But not just anyone, it had to be him. She was just glad that the rooms were soundproof, saving her the embarrassment of having the others hear her animalistic moans and howls, trying to teach herself how best to be an obedient pet.

As for the girls who were waiting to be part of Yoichi's harem, Sakura and Hinata, they were just as devastated to hear he was gone, but they were both encouraged by the others around her. Sakura had been spending more time at the Sakata house, getting to know Satsuki and Naruko better, while occasionally being dragged off by Ino for some debauchery she would never reveal outloud. She was given the courage to meet with Tsunade and ask to be her apprentice, being shocked to know she had already been considered, Naruko and Satsuki talking to their teachers who in turn talked to Tsunade about it.

She made fantastic progress, already knowing how to enhance her strength the same that Tsunade did, with the biggest trouble being medical jutsu. However, she pushed on and worked harder, learning at a faster rate than Shizune had.

Hinata was most surprisingly helped by her cousin, after they had finally created a new seal for their clan to protect the Byakugan. Neji had grown to respect Hinata a lot more, having been moved from her willingness and suggestion to have him become the next Clan head. When Hinata fell into a depression the same as the other girls when Yoichi left, Neji was there to help her, followed by the rest of her family and clan. Seeing how because of her, her clan was coming together, her confidence practically skyrocketed, training hard enough to the point where she was able to actually defeat Neji in a spar, the two on equal levels of strength.

Now, today was the day Yoichi was to return. All eight girls spent the entire previous day getting ready, Hinata and Sakura even spending the night to help out, wanting to be there with them when he came back. They had received and sent letters to him, hearing about his progress and letting him know of their own, so when they were told when he planned on coming back, they were so excited that then stayed up a bit too late, none of the awake when the door to the house opened.

Jiraiya and Yoichi emerged from the ground, covered in dirt, both of them coughing and spitting out soil. A quick, one handed hand sign from Jiraiya, and a large gust of wind blew it all off them. When they could finally open their eyes, Jiraiya could see them standing at one of the gates to Konoha.

"Well, I'm impressed, that's for sure." He said, looking to Yoichi he gave him a weak smile before stumbling, Jiraiya catching him. "You alright?" Yoichi nodded as he took a few deep breaths, getting his footing.

"Yeah… just took a lot out of me to take both of us. Like, it would take 45 percent to take just me, but 90 percent for another. I think I need to head home and lay down." Jiraiya nodded, Yoichi and him equally as tired as they walked into the gate. Sadly, he still had to report his return, letting the guards know that Yoichi was returning from being away for training. At some point, he and Yoichi went different ways, the sannin to report to Tsunade, the other to his home.

Yoichi made it to his house, smiling to himself as the familiar structure loomed in front of him. Here, he could take a good, long nap. The thought of seeing any of the girls didn't even cross his mind as he made his way inside, hopping into the air once he got to the main room, expecting to land on his soft, cushioned couch. Instead, his body met the floor, Yoichi letting out a groan of pain as he looked around.

As he did, the first girl to wake up, Kin, sleepily made her way out to get something to drink, before freezing as she noticed someone was in the middle of the living room, the place completely bare. Noticing her there, he gave her a small wave.

"Hey Kin. So, when did I get robbed?" He asked, motioning to the empty room.

Author's Note

Yoichi returns home! I did my best to throw in a bit of smut in the chapter. Nothing really unique, but it was mainly to show that he's gotten comfortable enough to seduce Mei. I gave a fairly lengthy explanation of what most of the girls were up to, but I think it worked out fine in my opinion. In the next chapter, how will things go with Yoichi's return?

Anyways, hope you all enjoyed! Please make sure to follow this story to keep up to date on when I post as I do not have a regular schedule. Also leave a review/comment telling me what you did or didn't like and what you'd like to see more or less of. Any bit helps!

Until next time!
