Minato and Yukan stood beside each other, looking at the bushes for any more movement.

"Oi, be ready," Yukan whispered to Minato as Minato nodded in response.

After some continuous and intense staring at the bushes by Yukan and Minato, a boy around the same age as them walked out.

He had light pink hair coming down from his head, covering his forehead and light blue eyes.

The boy stood at some distance from Yukan and Minato as he also started to stare at them.

'Sh*t, he's beautiful.' Yukan said in his mind as he looked at the boy.

"Hey, he's beautiful..." Minato said.

"We sure he's a boy?" Yukan asked.

"Of course, idiot. He ain't wearing anything on his upper body." Minato answered as he looked at Yukan with a disappointed look.

"Who are you?" Yukan asked the boy standing in front of them. Yukan kept his hand on his sheathed katana, ready to fight at any time.

"I should be asking you that. How dare you inferior ones tread into the land of the Noble Ayoko clan?" The boy asked.

The nation-toppling male beauty turned out to be like a young master from a clan, stopped from having intercourse with a jade beauty and was arrogant now. (A/N: No, this isn't turning into a Chinese novel. I am better than that.)

"As far as I know, this area is not Ayoko clan's. Their land was behind. This is an unoccupied area," Yukan answered the boy in front of him.

"It is from now on. Now, fight you two. The one who survives will get the chance to be a slave of the noble Ayoko clan," The boy said as an ugly and hateful smile appeared on his face.

"I take back what I said. That smile is worse than dogshit." Minato said. But this time, he said it in a much louder and clearer voice, causing the boy to hear him.

As soon as the boy heard Minato, he ran in their direction with a kunai in his hands.

"I'll go ahead, get a jutsu ready," Yukan said as he too, leapt in the air while charging at the boy and unsheathed his katana.

Yukan's katana and the boy's kunai made contact, but the boy was able to push Yukan back a little.

Yukan could not use any strength near his full since he was already tired from the previous fight.

The boy suddenly laughed mockingly and said," Aren't you tired?" The boy then clenched his fist and punched Yukan, disturbing his posture and pushing him back. As Yukan was getting pushed back, the boy swung his kunai to cut through Yukan's throat.

Yukan bent backwards and somehow managed to do both, avoiding the kunai coming for his throat and falling towards his back.

After that, Yukan had some exchanges with the boy as he tried to buy more and more time for Minato to get ready.

'Hah! Fu*k, a little more time.' Yukan said in his mind. After these few exchanges, Yukan had a few injuries on his whole body, but the boy. He only had a long but shallow cut on his arm and stood alright.

"You are good. What is your name?" Yukan asked.

"My name is Teshima Ayoko. As for the time that you are trying to buy, it won't be of use. My defence is something I am proud of." The boy introduced himself and also told that the attacks made on him were futile.

By now, Minato used his [Wind Style: Faithful Wind Blade] jutsu. It was a D-Rank jutsu he knew.

For this jutsu, the user would throw a large wind blade towards the enemy. The only advantage of this jutsu was that one could infuse another element in the wind blade to make it more destructive.

Minato infused the wind blade with the water element and threw it in Teshima's direction.

"Haha, see this, you lower ones," Teshima said as he looked t the incoming jutsu but did not move.

Yukan had already gotten off the course of the water-infused wind blade.

Teshima stayed in the same place. When the wind blade finally hit him, a large scar on his chest appeared.

"Alright, I agree. You both are better than I expected. But all that I need to do was to gather some chakra here. That is it. You are still going to be my slave... Or I guess not. Since you tried to kill me, you don't get the honour to be my slave." Teshima said in a very arrogant and bitchy tone.

"Sh*t, I don't care if I die here now, I am taking down this fu*king son of bit- ah no, no slurs at mothers. This ... son of a do- nah not father either... This piece of sh*t." Yukan said as he got back together with Minato.

" How about THAT jutsu?" Minato asked as he looked at Yukan.

"You got the chakra for it?" Yukan asked.

"It is as you said, we're taking this sh*t down today, no matter what," Minato answered.

Yukan laughed once and then nodded.

Minato then started to weave some hand signs again while Yukan got ready to buy some time and protect Minato.
