I parry the attack coming from my side while pushing into Chojuro's guard to strike and stop my sword at his neck.
"Again!" I yell, he's been getting better but he still does some basic mistakes. Then he gets up to take a stance again.
To set the mood I take out a music player while thanking Kishimoto(that's the author of naruto right?) that these existed in this universe and start playing Naruto Main Theme.
This song somehow gets people of this universe to progress faster, or I am just imagining things, Morgan still doing experiments on that.

- Mei POV -
"How's our travelling swordsman doing?" I ask Ao while doing damned paperwork, no one told me there was paperwork when they made me Kage.
"I don't like how he looks at you Mei-sama but it's undeniable that Chojuro is progressing much better."
"You are sure that he's not a shinobi?" I ask one more time since this is something I can't believe.
"He doesn't have a shred of chakra in his pathways, I wouldn't even been able to see his pathways if I didn't look closely." This is unsettling everyone and everything living has chakra in this world now someone like this appears.
"Should I ask him on a dinner? He might open up." I ignore Ao's refusal, I deserve a dinner with a cute guy like Ethan.

I am making food, I had to bring supplies from the ring because Orochimaru doesn't believe that food should taste good, he only cares about it's nutritional value.
As I was flipping pancakes I sensed Karin entering the to my impromptu kitchen looking at the appliances with interest.
"Sasuke-kun you can cook?" I shrug and stop myself from mentioning living alone for years because that's depressing.
"I try my best, wanna join I can use the help?"
"Of course~!"
Karin ended up burning the water, froze the vegetable oil and got covered in flour but somehow her pancakes tasted better than mine...
Is this the famous taste of emotions?
"Mom used to say I am a wreck in the kitchen but somehow the dishes I make turns out edible." She calls this edible, this is the best damned pancake I ever ate!
I promptly gave head pats to Karin while praising her cooking, this is raw talent that needs to be honed. Karin was too happy to stay awake and passed out.

- Mei POV -
I read the report of the my anbu has given me, I can't help but laugh until my stomach is aching.
"Hahahaha Shit Release are they serious? ahahaha." They even lost an elder who was demonstrating it.
"Mizukage sama it might be turned into a proper weapon if allowed to spread, we must secure a copy for ourselves." Ao comments idly on the side but I can see that he's holding his laughter.
But he's right you can't underestimate a jutsu and it's different uses but hahahahaha!
"Ahh I had a good laugh, try to see if we can get a copy but don't force it *giggles* Shit Release."

I tap on my smartphone writing a message about my latest news for Itachi. I think he appreciates the thought. As I was sending the message he sent me one named as "The Plan"
"All right Sasuke, since you said Naruto can handle Pain and Konan, I can say that I can handle the rest of the Akatsuki with the information you provided, minus Obito since you want to turn him "good" which I can't see it happening but I will trust you.
On that part I will do my best to locate where Pain keeps that statue so we can handle Black Zetsu and Kaguya... (I mean progenitor of chakra on elemental nations seriously!)
Sigh anyway after that we just need to make a fake war that will band people together to fight against it so we can promote unity without getting Madara reanimated of course.
Some people will die but it's not like I never killed innocents for peace... Also thanks for keeping me updated on your progress... It means a lot." I read Itachi's long message god he's still awkward about killing his clan thing...
Okay that's normal but I forgiven him, anyway putting that aside I also need to tell him about my harem so he can warm up to the idea.
I am not letting him go without marrying him with at least two girls!

I drag myself to the bathroom and get naked, the last justu I tried was taxing enough to get me exhausted and my eyes throb with pain.
After scrubbing myself I lowered myself into the bath, Orochimaru has hot spring under this particular base and it is supplemented by sealing arrays and such in summary it's awesome.
As I was drifting I sensed the door of the bathroom open up revealing a determined Karin only covered with a towel.
Seeing me drifting on the water looking like I am asleep she looks over my body(My waist is covered) and nods in appreciation before joining me in the bath.
I pull her underwater to give her a surprise before getting out ignoring her sad cries, I forgot that she asked my Icha Icha series I was wondering what she was going to do with them.
Unfortunately those books aren't reliable guides to relationships. I know I tried.

I leave for my temporary residence in this village after I am done with Chojuro, kid's natural with the sword but he lacks confidence.
While I was walking I got stopped by an angry looking Ao who told me that Mizukage is calling for me.
I was expecting be escorted to Kage office but Ao escorted me to a house filled with anbu agents, if it wasn't for me sensing Mei inside I would think it's a trap.
Getting in I smelled something burnt and followed it into the kitchen to come across Mei holding a tray of charcoal.
But hey she looks cute with that apron.
I smirked "Can't cook?"
"hmfp you talk like you can."
"I do actually cook and I am damn good at it, none of my wives can cook." Except poison I mean it's ridiculous.
"Right wives, let's talk about that!" Mei is chipper all the sudden and I was ready to preach polygamy until we heard Ao coughing his lungs out from the other room.
"Is he all right?"I ask knowing that he's been listening us he also had Chojuro alongside him.
"Ohoho once I am done with him he's going to be, 'all right'." I nod ignoring the threat in the sentence and keep cooking.
