Chapter 458: Loyalty to Sumire

Previously, due to Shizune's influence, Sumire had to make a choice, and reluctant to admit that as a last resort, she would have to prove herself for his attention, and even start acting against her own sensei. She had even begun to plan her moves, despite the risk of disappointing him. But, to think, he not only freed her from this betrayal, completely ridding her of Hanabi's company and the power to influence her, he also gave her the opportunity to prove herself!

In addition to joy, worry flashed in Sumire's eyes. Could it be that he already knew about her plans? What if this was how he wanted to get her away from Hanabi?

Sumire swallowed nervously. She did not trust Shizune at all and well understood that she could set her up. But judging by Naruto's tone, it wasn't all that scary...

Actually, Sumire was right about this, but that's not the main reason for the Hokage's actions. He was not afraid of trouble on the way to the dear Hyuuga, especially after the last meeting with her. It wasn't that that worried him now, and certainly not Sumire's actions. Although, to some extent, it can be said that he moved a piece off the board, thereby eliminating the threat to his plans, Sumire also ended up glad about this ...

Whatever it was, Naruto got everything he wanted...

"So what's your answer?" He continued to press, clearly using her feelings against her, completely ignoring explanations, in the desire to get his own.

However, Sumire didn't even realize it, not at all realizing how she was being used, even now...

How could she even doubt or think about anything other than this chance? Naruto was too cunning... He came on his own, and also allowed him to become an important part of his life. For him, such a step cost nothing, but for her ...

Sumire had no doubt that if he considered her the only one capable of doing this "job", then it was very important for him, and the more important it was for him, the better it would be for her.

A chance to prove herself, an opportunity to finally show him her determination and love... All these days, Sumire only dreamed about this!

Everything was going so perfectly that in her joy she even got a little excited and blushed, impatiently agreeing:

- I agree to all!

"As expected..."

Her aspirations and dreams became like threads in his hands...

Naruto's eyes gleamed mischievously.

"Is that so…" His lips stretched into a strange smirk, "We'll see…

He slowly climbed down from the table, put down his empty mug and, coming close to his sweet girl, smiled gently, running the back of his hand through her smooth hair.

You didn't disappoint me...

Sumire blushed a little, but did not recoil, but on the contrary, lowered her head towards his cold fingers:

"I… I agree to everything… It doesn't matter what you want…"

- Are you sure? Naruto frowned seriously, "You don't get mad that I'm using you?"

He struck at the weak spot, seeking to make it even more fragile and solidify his position in her heart.

And it worked...

"I don't care…" Sumire smiled tenderly and beamed with happiness, pleased with his "affectionate tone"…

"If it's for you, I agree… No matter what you ask… I promise I'll do whatever it takes."

Smiling at him with such sincere love, Sumire blossomed...

How could this be resisted?

"H-ah..." Naruto let out a long breath, unable to look away...

"You're so cute…" At that moment, he wanted to stay and spend some time with her… But realizing that he had already lingered long enough, he sighed and pushed those useless thoughts away.

"Alright..." Naruto finally nodded, no longer trying to pressure her. This answer was enough for him, and therefore, he put his hand on her shoulder, and seriously warned:

- Get ready...

- Mm...

Sumire completely trusted him and, without blinking, the scenery around him immediately changed to the familiar atmosphere of his office...

- AND? Sumire immediately looked around in surprise. It was the first time she had experienced something like this. Even my head was spinning.

She has not been in this place for a long time, with him ...

As soon as the Hokage appeared on his territory, even the surrounding aura seemed to change...

No matter how Shizune tried to pretend to be worthy, this place did not belong to her. At that moment, for the first time, Sumire realized this strangeness... Wherever he was, everything around him changed according to his will.

Sumire's loving gaze towards him was filled with trepidation...

Naruto stepped back, teleporting along with her.

- Hm? and then frowned sharply.

- What the heck...

His gaze immediately fell on the defeated Tsume Inuzuka, and what he saw simply amazed him!

"What the..."

All beaten and covered in blood, curled up at his feet... It was completely different from how he left her!

Even if he mocked, he definitely didn't beat him to such an extent! He was going to use her, not mutilate her...

What the hell?!

Anger flashed across Naruto's face.

"Akita…" he growled, trying to find that impudent bitch…

He had no doubt that it was she who brought Tsume to such a state!

What time does this cowardly girl ruin everything?! In all the months in this world, this bitch is the only one who managed to create so many problems for him!

What kind of talent is this?!

— Akita!

But, before Naruto had time to figure out the situation, a pitiful sob was heard from the side, and then at an impressive speed, with a terrible roar, the culprit of what happened crawled to his feet, starting to bow in tears!

- Master! Excuse me! Sorry! grabbing onto his leg, the girl pleaded, sticking her ass up, and ignoring Sumire's presence, she began to tearfully ask for forgiveness...

— I beg you! Sorry! Sorry! I'm sorry!

She literally sobbed, humiliating herself in horror ...

Not even Naruto expected this. Of course, he immediately understood what had happened here, but even for him, all this was a huge surprise!

"She beat her up? What the fuck…" – he didn't know whether to laugh at him or punish him for this… On the one hand, this cowardly girl damaged his things, but at the same time, such an act is not at all what you expect from this shy bitch!

Naruto knew that Akita would do anything for her life, but who could have guessed that she was capable of such a thing?! She showed her fangs as soon as he turned away!

"Damn... She's gone nuts..."

He simply could not find any other explanation. Not only was this girl already in the balance, but she also did such an absurd stupidity ...

She obviously has a headache!

Severely beating the head of her clan, and after all that she had done for her? And even when she herself hardly escaped such a fate ... Ingratitude and lack of conscience are not even the main thing, but such cruelty ...

"What a fool…" The corners of his lips twitched noticeably. He tried his best to suppress his furious laughter...

Even if there was nothing left of the pleasant face of the wild Tsume, it became too funny for him!

This situation is just something!

But, the rest of those present were definitely not laughing ...

Akita humiliated herself, covered in tears and snot, continuing to beg for forgiveness...

- Master! I beg you, have mercy! That pathetic bitch deserves to be punished! Just don't kill! Please! Ask! I will do everything! Woo! Do not be silent...

Familiar music... What else could be expected from this fool? Naruto wasn't surprised at all. First he does, and then he thinks... To some extent, it's even charming...

"Wh-what… What is this…"

Sumire's eyes trembled in shock. She couldn't believe what she saw! Just a moment ago I enjoyed his attention, but the calm and intimate atmosphere was replaced by this!

What the heck?!

Is it really all about this so-called "work"?

She didn't understand anything!
