Chapter 165: Making Another Enemy for Life

*Author Note*

As all of you should have noticed, we are quickly approaching the end of “Naruto” canon. I won’t simply do the three-year time skip and will instead continue normally.

If you want, you can make suggestions about what you want me to write about. For example, someone asked me whether I will write about the first Naruto movie but with Yuna as part of the cast (which I haven’t decided about, yet).

Just write me your ideas and I will consider which ones to do. I have, naturally, already a few things planned as well. For example, I want to write about that movie where Naruto and the gang time traveled and meet Minato. That should be pretty fun~

*End of Author Note*

A loud groan escaped Yuna’s mouth as she slowly opened her eyes. After scanning her surroundings for a moment, she concluded that she was currently in a hospital, which wasn’t surprising to her. She had no idea for how long she was unconscious, but it should have been for a while.

A few moments later, Naruto entered the room with a happy expression on his face. But instead of how she remembered him, Naruto seemed to have aged quite a bit.

“Nee-san, you are finally awake! You have been asleep for almost 3 years!”

“…”

“…”

*FLICK*

“OW!”

Yuna mercilessly flicked Naruto’s forehead, causing the transformation that made him look older to disperse.

“You are a million years too early to trick me. And you shouldn’t believe for even a second that I didn’t notice all those prank seals you put into the security formation of this room.”

Instead of saying anything, an annoyed pout appeared on Naruto’s face, which caused Yuna to chuckle.

“Well, how long was I out and how did the mission go? Is there anything new I should know about?”

Naruto’s pout quickly vanished and was replaced with a serious expression.

“You were asleep for two weeks and, just like you wanted, we failed to retrieve Sasuke. While I was only fighting a bunch of goons, which was boring, Hinata fought some weirdo that used his own spine as a sword. I’m not sure what his deal was, but Hinata said that he simply died after using a big jutsu.”

Yuna nodded her head in understanding. Using your own spine as a sword IS pretty messed up, but Yuna had seen worse. What she really wondered about was how Orochimaru managed to dig up all these weirdos. Is he actively looking for them, or do they just naturally flock to him?

“A while after we arrived back in Konoha, Akane headed for the Hokage tower with a massive stack of papers and a while later ANBU were swarming the whole village while capturing people.”

Yuna nodded her head in understanding. She pretty much expected something like that to happen. Who could know how many dirty deals Danzo had done and how many people were involved in them? Well, Tsunade knew most of them now, but Yuna didn’t really care. Danzo was dead, which was a good thing, and the corruption that is present no matter where you go went down as well. As for what will happen to the captured people? Yuna truly couldn’t care less.

“Oh, and Sakura was apparently accepted as Tsunade’s disciple in addition to Karin.”

“Oh? How did she manage to do that? I don’t think Sakura could have any leverage against Tsunade and neither does she possess anything Tsunade could want. As for threats, that’s simply not possible.”

“*Cough* S-She simply asked her and Tsunade accepted.”

Yuna was completely dumbfounded when she heard that, but moments later her eyes shone in enlightenment.

“RIGHT! I had so much fun doing it through other means, I totally forgot that doing it like that was an option as well!”

“*cough* A-Anyway, that was everything worth mentioning.”

Yuna nodded her head in understanding and leaned back on the bed. The moment Naruto saw Yuna relax, a glint appeared in his eyes and a cake appeared right in front of Yuna’s face.

Although Yuna said that she noticed the seals, Naruto expected that to be the case. All of these seals were only created by him to hide the one that just activated.

Yuna didn’t move at all, but just before the cake hit her face, it was split in half causing it to pass by the sides of Yuna’s face.

“Nice try, but I am pretty sure those million years haven’t passed yet.”

Naruto, meanwhile, could only gnash his teeth in anger. He was actually the one that made the cake split in half since he predicted that Yuna would see through the cake seal as well and would dodge it by leisurely tilting her head to the side. He made the cake hit the places where she could have dodge to, but Yuna had seen through that as well and opted to not move at all, causing the cake to miss her.

Naruto decided to just take the loss and leave the room. For now, he would tell Hinata and Anko that Yuna woke up, and, after considering what happened to that patch of forest where he found Yuna, he decided to inform Tsunade as well.

Meanwhile, in the Land of Sound in one of the many secret bases, creepy laughter could be heard. Orochimaru, who still had his arms frozen, finally managed to start the process necessary for Sasuke to awaken his cursed seal to the second level.

He was currently standing in front of a huge barrel, that was emitting black smoke, a sign that the procedure was almost finished. Orochimaru couldn’t help but be a little intrigued about what Sasuke will look like after his transformation and how strong he will become.

A short while later, the top of the barrel exploded away, and Sasuke slowly rose from it. Although Orochimaru could only see his silhouette for now, he noticed to his own surprise, that Sasuke had actually gotten wings.

Happy, female-sounding laughter echoed through the room.

“Hahaha, I feel amazing! What strength!”

The smoke lifted, and the moment Orochimaru saw Sasuke’s level two transformation, his face stiffened.

Red skin. Wide hips and big breasts. Two bat-like wings. Two small horns on his head. And the weirdest feature in Orochimaru’s opinion: A long slim tail that had a small heart at the end. Well, the weirdest feature if one excludes the shift in gender.

‘The second level transformation has always been rather random, but I was not expecting that it can even change the gender of the person while he is transformed. How curious.’

Sasuke, meanwhile, has also noticed that something felt off, and after looking down and seeing his big breasts he knew what it was. At first, he thought that something went wrong with the ritual, but then he realized that this wasn’t the first time someone turned him into a woman. Yuna’s image appeared in his head and moments later he remembered how she patted him on his shoulder when he was about to leave Konoha. The very same shoulder where his cursed seal was located.

Sasuke’s anger exploded, causing his Sharingan to activate on its own. Moments later, Sasuke’s anger reached the boiling point and a new tomoe appeared in one of his eyes, bringing him to the maximum of six. If Yuna were to hear of this event, she would shamelessly proclaim that she helped Sasuke get stronger and that he should thank her for it.

“I WILL DEFINITELY KILL YOU, YUNA UZUMAKI!!!”
