Moments later, Hinata was the first to reach the exhausted due, and as soon as she saw that both of them seemed to be mostly fine, a pout appeared on her face while her glare landed on Yuna.
“No matter how I look at it, that was definitely too much, Yuna.”
Yuna chuckled in amusement when she saw Hinata’s cute pout.
“Indeed, but what can I say? Naruto simply didn’t stop egging me on.”
‘Hehe, switching blame, sweet-talk, sex. It seems like I forgot to mention one of the steps to Naruto.’
[As expected of you. There are only very few who could assassinate their little brother this ruthlessly and still be proud about it.]
‘Hehe, I know. I’m that awesome.’
“O-Oi, nee-san! What the hell!?”
Meanwhile, Hinata, Ino, and Haku’s glare shifted from Yuna to Naruto, who immediately started panicking a little.
“Nonono, no matter how you look at it, if it is about egging someone on, then nee-san is definitely the most likely guilty party.”
“Well, that might be the case, Naruto, but weren’t you the one who did that last transformation first~”
When Naruto heard what Yuna had just said, he could only open and close his mouth like a fish out of water. Although that was indeed the case, wasn’t it still Yuna who always wanted to continue fighting?
Just when Naruto was about to string together an argument to prove his innocents, Yuna started speaking again.
“Well, honestly, we both overdid it there, so I guess we are both equally to blame.”
Yet again, Naruto was shocked by Yuna’s statement. Although it was still better than taking all the blame, in his opinion, the escalation of the battle was at best 10 percent his fault. How did it suddenly become 50 percent? However, he also knew that he had to cut his losses or things would become worse for him.
“Haha, nee-san is right. I guess we got a little carried away there.”
Hinata’s pout made a return as her gaze returned to Yuna.
“Seriously, wasn’t that dangerous? Karin even had to make a movie to reinforce the barrier surrounding the training field, or that last clash might have actually shattered.
Yuna nodded her head in approval at Karin’s action and gave her a proud smile.
“Yes, I noticed what she did. Well done, Karin. I will definitely reward you plenty for that.”
“Ah, thank you, Yuna-sama~”
“As for the barrier breaking, that was highly unlikely. What Karin did could, at best, be considered increasing the safety margin. Isn’t that right, Karin.”
Karin, who was still on cloud nine since she earned herself a reward, eagerly nodded her head at Yuna’s words.
Before Hinata could even attempt to question her on whether that was actually true or not, Yuna swooped in and snacked her arm around Hinata’s hip.
“See, my cute little Hinata, despite the situation looking somewhat chaotic, everything was under control. Or maybe, you want to give me a little body check to see if there are any dangerous wounds on my body?”
As Yuna said that, she slightly loosened her clothes, allowing Hinata to take a peek at her breasts, resulting in a slight blush appearing on her face.
“M-Maybe later. *Cough* A-Anyway, I was really worried about you when you were engulfed in that chakra storm for over a minute, but since you are fine, everything is good.”
Yuna started petting her head, which caused Hinata to smile happily. Meanwhile, a mischievous smile appeared on Anko’s mouth as she started speaking.
“Hehe, Yuna must be rather weekend right now; how about we use our chance and pounce on her now~”
“Oh, oh, then I might as well cash in my reward while we are at it, guehehe~”
Before Hinata could bring forth any arguments, Yuna picked her up by her waist and walked next to Anko and Karin, who both put their hands on Yuna’s shoulder.
“Well, then, it’s decided. See ya later, Naruto, Ino and Haku. Oh, and Naruto, good luck~”
Moments later, the group of four teleported out the frozen arena, leaving a dumbfounded Naruto, Ino, and Haku behind.
Naruto could only feel a little helpless when he saw how easily Hinata was satisfied. Anko and Karin weren’t a problem from the start, so that left only Hinata as a hurdle to overcome, after all.
As for Naruto’s current situation, it wasn’t looking too good. Ino and Haku weren’t as meek as Hinata regarding sexual matters weren’t as obedient as Karin, and weren’t like Anko either, who only thought out fun situations.
However, Naruto also had a few cards he could play that wouldn’t work out well if Yuna tried them. His eyes took on an innocent gleam as his mouth formed into a pitful pout.
“You two believe me, right? After all, there is no way I would be the one egging on nee-san. You also must have felt her battle intent, right? She simply tricked me into revealing my moves first so that she could push the blame on me.”
Ino was just about to start scolding Naruto for pushing the sparring match too far when her eyes met Naruto’s clear blue eyes that shone with innocents, causing her to resolve to falter instantly. That impression was only enhanced when she heard Naruto’s words.
‘Right, if it is a fight between Yuna and Naruto, then it is only natural that Yuna is the one pushing the battle forward. As for tricking Naruto into revealing his moves first so that she could redirect the blame, that is very likely as well. I see, so Yuna was the one pushing the fight forward one-sidedly. That makes sense.’
While Ino was defeated instantly, Haku wasn’t fully satisfied yet. Naruto noticed that and quickly continued speaking.
“Sorry, but could you help me stand up? The room is still frozen, and it’s g-getting rather cold.”
Haku moved without even thinking about it and immediately helped Naruto stand up and allowed him to use her shoulder as a crutch.
“Haha, thanks, Haku, as always, you are really kind.”
Haku complains about the fight immediately vaporated as well when she saw the massive sunshine-like smile on Naruto’s face.
‘D-Damnit, using that kind of smile from up close is too unfair. There is no way I can scold him in that kind of situation.’
When Haku picked up Naruto, Ino quickly moved as well to support his other side, resulting in his smile becoming even bigger.
“Hehe, having my two beautiful girlfriends supporting me like this, I’m already feeling much warmer.”
Ino and Haku both blushed a little before meekly nodder their heads.
When Naruto saw that Ino and Haku no longer seemed to want to scold him, Naruto decided to go for the final blow.
“You two, I’m really sorry for what happened today. I really should have tried to stop nee-san from pushing things this far.”
When Ino heard Naruto’s apology, she hastily shook her head.
“It’s not your fault, Naruto. After all, we all know how rampant Yuna is.”
Instead of commenting on this, Haku simply nodded her head, causing Naruto to give them another innocent smile.
However, inwardly his facial expression was twisted into a scheming smile.
“Just as planned. Instead of using nee-san’s ridiculous methods to somehow divert the topping into having sex, pleading innocent while pushing all the blame on nee-san is much more effective.”
[How in the world do you still manage to pull off that innocent facial expression? Shouldn’t it be twisted like a demon by now?]
‘Ah, that’s because people always compare it with nee-san’s. Compared to that madness-ridden smile, mine automatically appears innocent.’
[…Okay, point taken. That makes sense.]
