Chapter 102: Talking with Ino’s Parents
A few moments later, a tied-up Jiraiya was placed next to the tied-up Inoichi on the couch.
‘Damn, I regret that I told Zabuza that he should be here at the end of the month. I feel like things would have been even more interesting if he was here right now.’
While the silence in the room became more and more awkward, Jiraiya decided to be the first to say something.
“Well, I am not sure what exactly is going on, but could somebody untie me?”
Yuna shook her head at Jiraiya’s question.
“You entered our house through the window, so of course n…”
Yuna met eyes with Jiraiya, and moments later, both of them widened their eyes in surprise. Yuna snapped her finger and Jiraiya’s bindings fell to the ground. They stood up at the same time and started approaching each other until they were not even a meter apart.
They looked into each other’s eyes as the atmosphere in the room became heavier by the second and then…
“Hahaha! To think I would meet a kindred spirit. And it is actually such a young woman. The world is really vast.”
“Hahaha! Indeed! When Naruto told me, you were an old pervert, I wasn’t paying much attention to it, but you have reached quite the high level. Not bad, not bad at all.”
“Naturally, I am dedicated to what I do. We should go out and talk about our… passion if we get a good chance.”
“Haha, of course, I am all for it.”
After the duo finished speaking, they returned to their respective seats, while pretending like nothing happened. The remaining people in the room, meanwhile, were eyeing them with suspicion.
“Yuna, what was that ab… *mmh*”
Before Hinata could say the full question, Yuna gave her a deep kiss, leaving her slightly dazed and with a goofy smile.
“Let’s talk about that later, Hinata.”
“Hehe, okay~”
Yuna turned around and, before Anko could say anything, gave her an equally passionate kiss. When they separated, Anko licked her lips with an excited smile on her face.
“You sure know me well, hehe.”
Yuna rolled her eyes and turned her attention back to the rest of the group.
Ino and Haku had crimson red faces and seemed to be ready to faint at any moment. Naruto had dead eyes and was absentmindedly staring at a wall while imagining being somewhere else. Inoichi had a trickle of blood flowing down his nose while it was more like a stream of blood for Jiraiya. Mika Yamanaka, however, seemed to be thinking about her past while occasionally saying something along the lines of “It’s good to be young”.
Yuna shook her head at the weird atmosphere and decided to get things back on track.
“Well, let’s start talking. I assume the Yamanaka couple is here because Naruto took Ino’s first time?”
“”””WHAT!!!””””
Killing intent erupted out of Inoichi while he looked at Naruto like he was willing to lay down his own life to kill him, while the rest of the room looked at Naruto completely dumbfounded.
“N-NEE-SAN!!! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING!!!”
Yuna innocently tilted her head to the side.
“This was the first time Ino held hands with a male that isn’t her father, right? So, Naruto was the first to do it.”
This time everyone’s glare was directed at Yuna who only continued to look innocent.
“Well, what were you thinking I meant?”
Although Yuna was acting like an innocent girl that didn’t know anything about sex, considering the way she kissed Hinata and Anko not even 2 minutes ago, no one believed the act for even a second.
“*Sigh* Let’s just ignore nee-san for now or we will be here for days.”
A cute pout appeared on Yuna’s face as she hugged Hinata.
“Hinata~ Naruto is bullying me~”
Hinata could only smile wryly while patting Yuna’s head.
Naruto rolled his eyes at Yuna and then looked directly into Inoichi’s.
“If I unseal you, can you stay seated and not attack me?”
Although Inoichi was struggling, after a moment of thinking, he nodded his head. Naruto snapped his fingers and removed the seals from Inoichi who actually stayed seated and simply glared at Naruto.
Naruto maintained eye contact and continued speaking.
“From today on, Ino and I will be dating!”
As soon as he said that, Inoichi’s chakra and killing intent burst forth and crashed into Naruto. Naruto, however, didn’t even twitch as he let loose his own chakra, easily contesting with Inoichi’s.
“You think I will just let you date my daughter!?”
“Yes!”
“And why do you think so?”
“I am strong and will only become stronger. I am fiercely protective of my family and most importantly, we like each other.”
Inoichi kept glaring at Naruto for quite a while longer, while Naruto didn’t falter in the slightest and matched his gaze. Another minute passed and Inoichi slumped back on the couch.
“Are you fine with that, Ino? From what I can see there seems to be a third person in this relationship.”
“Honestly, I don’t even know for sure. I like spending time with Naruto and Haku. Naruto is the first person my age I befriended, while Haku is the first…normal… female friend I made…”
“*Sob* Hinata~ Ino is also bullying me~”
“…Anyway, for now, I want to keep being good friends with both of them and see how our relationship develops from there.”
Yet again, an innocent voice echoed through the room.
“Ohh, so more than friends? Maybe friends with certain benefits? Let’s call it: Friends with benefits?”
Inoichi nodded at Ino.
“Fine, I can accept that. It is at least better than your one-sided obsession with that Uchiha brat. But…”
Inoichi returned his gaze to Naruto.
“…If I hear that you made Ino cry or did anything inappropriate, I will hunt you down.”
“*Sob* *Sob* Hinata~ Everyone is bullying me~”
“You don’t have to worry about that Mr. Yamanaka. I will protect Ino-chan no matter the cost.”
“Hey Hinata~ While Naruto and Ino were still in Naruto’s room I sensed that they were pushing their lips together. Is that one of the benefits that “Friends with Benefits” get?”
Everyone in the room froze when Yuna said that. Inoichi’s face grew fiercer by the second as he was looking at Naruto. He barely managed to squeeze his next words out through his gritted teeth.
“Is that true!?”
However, considering Ino was currently blushing fiercely, he didn’t even need Naruto to answer. Without another word, he stood up and charged at Naruto.
“I WILL KILL YOU!!!”
Naruto hastily dodged the punch and flared his chakra to activate the seals protecting the house, but nothing happened. He glared at Yuna, who gave him a happy wink with her eye before he had to dodge another punch from Inoichi.
He quickly made his way to the window while cursing loudly.
“DAMN YOU NEE-SAN, YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!!!”
“STOP RUNNING AWAY YOU DAMN BEAST!!! I WILL SKIN YOU ALIVE!!!”
And with that Naruto and Inoichi left the house.
“Well, that was fun, don’t you think so?”
[I would call you a demon, but that is rather obsolete at this point in time.]
Naturally, everyone was giving Yuna, who just caused her little brother to be chased down by a bloodthirsty doting father, a weird look. Well, everyone except for Jiraiya, who was furiously scribbling away on a piece of paper while muttering something about “great material” and “almost better than my research”, while occasionally letting loose a perverted chuckle.
