Chapter 49: Snakes?

My Life as Naruto Uzumaki - Harem Version

Chapter 49: Snakes?

-----------------------------------------------

After getting a slap on the wrist for creating such a haunting visage while playing such soothing music, I got introduced to Anko Mitarashi while she was in the process of trying to gain as much forensic information from the corpses as possible. 

"So, you're the artist behind this masterpiece?" She asked with a cocked eyebrow.

"That I am hot stuff. What 'ya got?" I asked her pointing at the corpse on the table.

"Eh? Confident, aren't you? not every girl appreciates those kinds of comments." She tried to come off threatening but I grinned.

"Perhaps, but you do." I winked at her and motioned at the corpse once more.

She looked a little miffed at my dismissal but turned to her work. "These are shinobi from various parts of the elemental nations. There's ninja from the rock, grass, sand, and even other smaller villages. Though many of these are civilians, possibly bandits who've been given shinobi training." She explained.

I thought as much. These are Orochimaru's goons.

"Any guesses?" I asked.

"Only one. And I hope I'm wrong." She muttered.

"You're likely not, Anko. They used techniques based on sound. And given their numbers that means that somewhere out there, someone is creating a village that specializes in sound based techniques." I took out what looked to be a prototype version of Dosu's Melody Arm.

"I'd like to keep this, but I can understand if you want to take a look at it first." I offered.

She gave me a look that I assume was between impressed and incredulous. "What makes you think there's a whole village full of these rejects?"

I grinned. "Exactly that. You can't tell now since I got them to turn each other to mush, but their clothes were ragged and dirty from the start. Like they were prisoners. Also, there are loyalty seals on most of them, so they were likely sent as an expendable scouting unit for something. What that something is, I have no clue."

I got closer to her and held her hand. "That's your job to figure out, beautiful."

I placed a six month coupon for a free order of dango with every other order at her favorite dango place. The coupon came out today.

I may not have met her until today, but I researched my targets. Plus, I had a lot of free time a while back, so going to shops and asking inane questions to the villagers to get them to talk about Anko became a hobby. 

She looked at the coupon and I saw her hold a squeal in before giving me a cocky smirk. "Hm, thanks kid. I'll graciously accept this."

She turned and accentuated her hip movement slightly. I was in love.

After that I got together with Sakura and she asked me about the technique, being the only one in our group that specializes in the art she was intrigued. We all know how that went.

-----------------------------------------------

I got back to the village and decided that it was time to spend some of my well-deserved free time with the girls. I already got what I wanted from Kakashi for the day, and getting a few levels additional to that after kicking butt was just a bonus. Getting under Anko's skirt would take time, but I wasn't in a hurry.

I went home and saw Ino was there, tending to the garden. I chose my target.

"Hey beautiful, are you on break?" I hugged her from behind, kissing her cheek from the side.

She giggled a little since she was ticklish in that spot. "I'm off today. I thought you were out doing missions." she snuggled into the hug.

"I was, but Aunty told me to take the week off since I'd done over 200 missions this month. Most were D-Ranks though." I grumbled with my face in the crook of her neck.

"Hmm... making up for lost time..." She said, her voice soft.

"... a little... I just need something to do... keep me occupied." I separated and turned her towards me.

"It's not like before where I could just go and talk to you girls and spend the day chatting or playing games... you've made your own lives now... and regardless of our relationship i can't just go and interrupt you while you're at work." I placed my forehead to hers.

"You girls are genin in name only... while I... well... I don't have a single accomplishment to my name besides those books I helped co-author when we were in class at the hospital..." I held her by the waist and closed my eyes, enjoying the proximity.

"That's not true, Naruto... you've made it so that all of us got stronger than almost anyone in the village... you sacrificed your well-being to help us grow stronger..." She lifted my chin ad looked into my eyes, a soft loving expression.

"You made it so that we could grow closer not just with you... but with each other... You've helped develop brand new techniques or inspire new ways of using existing techniques... you've accomplished more than you think." She told me and kissed me softly.

I smiled at her. Ino always knew how to make me cheer up, even when we were kids. "I love you, Ino..."

I kissed her softly, chaste.

"Hmm... give me more..." she kissed me again and held it for longer.

I returned the action and ran my hand down her back and grabbed her big butt; kneading it gently. "I love you... I need you..." I let myself get lost in the moment with her and we both lost ourselves in the throes of passion.

Yūgao and Hayate walked in while I was giving Ino a very passionate experience and quietly walked out. Or so I heard from Hayate later in the week when we met up for kenjutsu practice. He said Yūgao hasn't gotten off of him ever since he copied some of the techniques he saw me use.

I laughed.
