Chapter 6: Target Yuugao

Ayame was standing beneath the warm spray of the shower humming contently to herself. Having dreamed of a night like the previous one for years, she was pleased to find that the reality had completely blown them out of the water. It was quite early and even though all she wanted to do was curl up next to her lover and sleep. She was forced out of bed by the realities of running a small restaurant, as the early morning hours were essential to making it through the day, especially with a customer with such a voracious appetite as Naruto.

She smiled as she thought of what she had learned that morning namely that having a shinobi for a lover meant getting out of bed without waking him was difficult. When she had attempted to get out of the bed he had hugged her close telling her to stay with him. Although so very tempted to do so, she had told him that she couldn't. When he had pouted at her, she had laughed and after kissing him multiple times had told him that she needed to go in order to prepare for his eventual arrival at the stand. Naruto accepted the reality of having a lover with a civilian job, and therefore stricter hours by which she needed to get things done so had let her out of the bed.

Ayame turned the water off and after drying herself off stepped out of the bathroom to see Naruto sleeping again. She couldn't help the little 'aw' that escaped her lips as he snored gently as he looked too adorable to her. Gently folding her dress, she placed it into a bag and dressed in her waitress uniform before leaving the room. Exiting the hotel, she was surprised to find a beautiful blonde woman waiting out front who said, ”Was he everything you dreamed he would be?”

Not sure who it was confronting her Ayame said, ”Sorry, you must have me mistaken with someone else.”

”Oh I don't think so Ayame,” the blonde said.

”Who are you?”

”Picture me older with two-pigtails running down my back,” the blonde said.

Doing as instructed she suddenly pictured the Hokage standing before her. ”I'm sorry La…” she tried to say but found Tsunade's hand clamped over her mouth.

”Please don't cause a fuss,” Tsunade said quietly glad it was so early, ”When I look like this I'm free to move about as I please. Don't ruin it.”

”Tsunade is fine,” she replied but when Ayame arched an eyebrow she added, ”Tsunade is the fourth most common name for girls in Konoha. Just don't make a fuss and people won't put two and two together.”

”Okay. Um… may I ask what it is you want?”

”Well judging by the early hour, I suspect Naruto didn't have time to tell you more than the basics of what you have become a part of,” Tsunade said.

Ayame nodded saying, ”Do you mind if we talk on our way to Ichiraku?” Tsunade didn't, so the two women began making their way to the stand. ”He told me about how this all started and what he plans to accomplish,” Ayame said, wishing there was something she could contribute besides making ramen.

”Well there are quite a few little details he's left out,” Tsunade said. But before filling the waitress in on the rest asked, ”By the way, I know things probably sort of just happened, but are you taking any contraceptives?”

Tsunade didn't need the waitress to say anything as her eyes suddenly grew wide causing the older woman to laugh gently. ”I can't believe I didn't think of that,” she said beginning to worry considering the number of times Naruto had c.u.m inside her.

”Relax,” Tsunade said, ”I can use the after morning jutsu once we get to the shop. Also, simply see me once a month and I can use a jutsu to prevent pregnancy. After we get you a little practice you'll be able to do it yourself.”

”Why would I need to do that?” Ayame asked confused.

”Because I'm going to have to teach you how to cast a genjutsu,” Tsunade answered. ”You see one of the things Naruto failed to mention is that once he sleeps with someone he changes their chakra network. In most villages this wouldn't be a problem; however in Konoha it can be downright dangerous. Luckily the Byakugan can't see through the genjutsu that I used to hide my age. Now we'll use it to make our chakra networks appear normal.”

”That doesn't matter; this jutsu uses almost no chakra and is relatively simple. I can even cast it on you until you learn it, but should you ever be in a situation where it is dispelled somehow, I'll want you able to reapply it yourself.”

”O-okay,” Ayame said relieved.

She blushed as Tsunade added, ”Besides, learning to use chakra a little will help you in the long run especially after Naruto learns to apply his mark to his women.” Ayame looked at her with questioning eyes so the Hokage began to fill the young woman in on all the details that Naruto hadn't gone into.

*****************************

Ino was whistling behind the counter of her family's shop contently. Naruto had taken her on a date the night before. They had gone to a rather nice restaurant nothing as fancy as the Golden Pagoda, but she hadn't minded sure that once he began taking missions again she'd get her shot to go. But what had made her truly happy that morning was something that Hinata had confirmed. Her chakra was now the same forest green as Tayuya's.

It hadn't been the date that was behind the change but something that Naruto had said during it. Ino took a moment to shake her head with a smile as she couldn't believe that Naruto was still finding ways to surprise her. During the date, which had happened the day after his night with Ayame, Ino had said, ”Oh, by the way you'll never guess what color Ayame's chakra turned.”

Before she could tell him he quickly said, ”I don't want to know.”

That had pulled her up short so she asked, ”Why not, it's not bad?”

”I didn't think it would be,” Naruto had replied before taking her hand from across the table, ”But I don't want to know because it may affect how I treat you guys.” He must have been able to tell what she was going to ask next because he answered her unasked question, ”What I mean is…I guess I've had it too easy. I mean I tricked you into sleeping with me…,” when she was about to say she didn't mind he stopped her to continue, ”And I'm glad that except for some doubts, you and the others are happy. But I didn't even bother to consider there may have been some. I guess what I'm trying to say is that using the information the color of your chakra gives me would seem to make things a little too simple, and these relationsh.i.p.s should be anything but simple.”

He had smiled and said, ”I know, but I want to be able to tell when something is bothering you, just because I know and care for you. Not because someone needed to tell me your chakra shifted colors.”

Ino had literally felt her doubts melt away then. Her relationship with him may be miles away from normal, but it was one as far as Naruto was concerned and he was going to work at it. She might not have been able to say she loved Naruto as she had so often claimed to love Sasuke, but she was beginning to doubt she had ever truly loved the Uchiha. As he had never made her heart beat the way Naruto had.

Looking at the clock she cursed yelling at her mom that she was leaving, since Naruto had mastered applying the seal and was going to place it on her and the others.

****************************

Tsunade was standing in a clearing in Training Ground S. The privacy barriers were up so she was free to drop her henge for the special training her and the others girls were currently engaged in. Once she had arrived she found Naruto in the process of applying his mark to Hinata and Ino.

The Hyuuga had decided to have hers placed on her right hip confident that except for certain dresses where the slash raised that high it would remain unseen. Ino had opted to have hers placed on her buttock. Tsunade had considered having hers placed on her b.r.e.a.s.t but felt that might be a tad tacky so instead decided to have it placed on her inner t.h.i.g.h where only Naruto would see it.

Tsunade had thought that would be the extent of it but Naruto had surprised them by saying he could now transport to wherever they were. When Tsunade had asked how he learned to so fast, Naruto had answered saying that when he was in the seal time moved as fast or as slow as Kyuubi wanted. He had told them that although he had been training in the real world for a week it had been over a month in the seal.

Therefore Tsunade had wanted to test his ability, especially since with a minor tweak Naruto would be capable of Hiraishin using Kunai or by simply placing the appropriate seal to anything. However somewhere along the way the training had turned into a game of strip tag with whoever Naruto managed to touch whenever he appeared near them being forced to discard an item of clothing. Thus far she was the only one full dressed, as despite Naruto going after her several times she had managed to deflect or stop him from laying his hands on her.

Although after she had come across both Ino and Hinata after they had lost all their clothes and seeing the slightly dazed looks not to mention the c.u.m leaking from their freshly f.u.c.k.e.d pussies wasn't sure she wanted to win the game. But while she waited for Naruto to appear she began to think about other matters.

Doing a quick search of her surroundings, she then thought about what she had in store for the blond man in the coming week. Kakashi was due out of the Hospital in the next two weeks. That meant that in the meantime, Naruto would be free for a little special training she wanted him to participate in. Namely seducing a woman that he had almost no prior contact with and in a combat situation, therefore Naruto had all of the next week to attempt to seduce Yuugao Uzuki. She figured it was a win-win for the blond although he didn't know about it yet. Even if he failed, provided he didn't screw up too badly, he would at the very least get some taijutsu training in.

Tsunade heard a shout of, ”F.u.c.k.i.n.g shit,” and smiled guessing that meant Tayuya was out of the game since the last time she had seen the red-head she had been wearing only a pair of p.a.n.t.i.e.s. Guessing that Naruto was going to give her the same treatment as the others, she got herself comfortable by leaning against a tree figuring it would be a while. Thinking of Tayuya, she had a plan for her as well, namely in training her in how best to help Naruto.

Tsunade knew that Naruto had picked the girl as an agent to learn about women that he didn't know about from outside of Konoha. But Tsunade's bingo book eliminated a good portion of the need to search for suitable women. But if anything it made Tayuya's job more important which was to help Naruto best approach what she thought of as a cold targets. While she felt that given time Naruto could thaw even the most cold-hearted of women. In certain situations he wouldn't have the time to work on his timetable, such as approaching a target in the middle of her home village. It would be Tayuya's job to make that cold approach as trouble free as possible.

Her job would be to find out everything there was about a target such as what they ate, drank, hobbies, and if possible s.e.x.u.a.l d.e.s.i.r.es. Basically to arm Naruto with all the knowledge he would need to make him irresistible. For Tayuya's training she considered using Yuugao too, but had decided against it wanting Naruto to figure the Anbu head out on his own. Luckily for her, the girl she decided to point the red-head at literally dropped the mission request in her l.a.p that morning.

Hearing a shouted m.o.a.n of, ”Oh F.u.c.k.i.n.g Shit!” Tsunade figured that Naruto had finished with Tayuya and would be coming for her in earnest now. No sooner had she pushed off from the tree then a red flash appeared from her left. Grabbing the outstretched hand she kicked out catching her lover in the midsection sending him into a tree.

”Hey, be gentle. I bruise easily,” Naruto said rubbing his stomach.

”I was being gentle, you'll know when I stop,” Tsunade said with a smile.

”Aw come on Tsunade, I know you want to get the same reward I gave Ino, Hinata, and Tayuya,” he said giving a cheeky smile.

”Try to be serious Naruto, this is training after all and you're still a long way away from being able to tag me,” Tsunade said trying to sound business like.

L.i.c.k.i.n.g her lips she said, ”Prove me wrong then.”

”Gladly,” he said disappearing in a red flash.

He reappeared moments later but she gave him a similar response except this time when her kick connected Naruto burst into a cloud of smoke

”A shadow clone,” she thought worriedly. She had just begun to think about the ramifications of what the attack meant when suddenly five Naruto's appeared in red flashes. She managed to deflect all of them dispelling three but the other two disappeared. A moment later ten more appeared; she fought most of them off again, but was glomped from behind by Naruto who grabbed her b.r.e.a.s.ts giving them a squeeze.

”Got you,” he whispered into her ear as she m.o.a.n.e.d at his touch.

”You did,” she admitted, but she heard a bell going off signaling the end of the session so added, ”But too late to get me out of the rest of my clothes.” Pulling out of his grasp she said, ”Let's go meet up with the others.”

Walking hand in hand with her lover to where they had agreed to meet, Tsunade smiled seeing the other girls in the process of pulling their clothes back on. Commenting she said, ”Well looks like I win.”

Tayuya leaned towards her fellow n.a.k.e.d kunoichi saying, ”She's the only one that he didn't f.u.c.k and she thinks she won.”

The other two girls giggled at her comment till Tsunade said, ”You know something Tayuya you're right.”

”Absolutely,” Tsunade said an amused grin appearing on her face, ”As a winner I should get a reward. Therefore, for the next week I'll be the only one sleeping with Naruto.”

”What that's bullshit!”

”Hey we didn't agree to that.”

”B-but I was supposed to have my date with Naruto tonight.”

To the first two girls she simply pointed to herself and said, ”Hokage makes the rules.” But to the third said, ”You're right Hinata so you're exempt tonight.”

Hinata nodded relieved, but then sent a dark look Tayuya's way. Who noticed that it was mirrored by Ino, so she chuckled nervously, ”Heh, heh”

Amused Tsunade said, ”Tayuya, I'll speak with you later. There is some special training I want you to partake in.” The red-headed nodded so Tsunade turned her attention to Naruto saying, ”Naruto until you can use this jutsu effectively in combat which means against me.

I'm banning you from using it except to help one of us or emergencies.”

”But…”

”Trust me,” Tsunade said cutting him off, ”If word spreads that the Hiraishin is back in play, peace is going to be difficult to achieve. Since Iwa will undoubtedly attack, especially if they learn it hasn't been fully mastered yet.” Naruto grumbled under his breath, but Tsunade knew the best way to cheer him up was to get him focused on a new challenge so said, ”Naruto, next week you'll be training with Yuugao Uzuki.”

”The head Anbu lady?”

”That's right, she'll be training you in taijutsu and combat tactics,” Tsunade said.

”Am I to try and seduce her as well?” Naruto asked having a good idea of the answer.

”That's right,” Tsunade replied, ”It'll be good practice for dealing with a woman you don't necessarily know.”

”Yeah, but she'd be just as vulnerable to the Temptation's Touch wouldn't she?”

”Don't bet on it,” Tsunade said, ”That's the other reason I want you to attempt to seduce her during simulated combat. When you went after me it was with my guard down, and the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e I felt from the massage helped to cover the fact that chakra was entering my system. However, I would probably have detected it during a combat situation.”

”Why's that?”

”Because Naruto much like a genjutsu affects a person's chakra so too does the temptation's touch, and while generally you are using it when a women is not at her most perceptive doing so during a fight when she will be on the lookout for such a thing would be foolish.”

”How am I supposed to succeed if you are taking away my best weapon?”

”You'll need to find a way to succeed without it then,” Tsunade said without much sympathy. ”If you're going to unite the world you can't rely on one technique or tactic.”

”I get it,” Naruto said, ”Got any tips?”

”A few, but I'll keep them to myself for now. I want to see how you do going in cold and without any real insight into her,” Tsunade said.

”I'll do my best, but what if I screw up?”

”Luckily for you, she most likely would come to me and we'll deal with it then,” Tsunade answered.

”Lady Tsunade, are you in there?”

Tsunade turned towards the barrier surprised to hear her apprentice Sakura calling for her as she had made sure to schedule a shift at the Hospital for the girl while they trained. The reason being to avoid this exact scenario, since she knew it would hurt the future star medic to know she was the only woman Naruto had left out of helping him train, and probably felt she deserved to be there the most all things considered.

Turning to the three Kunoichi she breathed a little easier seeing that Tayuya had already made herself scarce. She was tempted to order Ino and Hinata to follow suit, but seeing the calm way Naruto looked as he stood to move by them figured he would say it wasn't necessary and would most likely spark an argument between them. Even though Sakura wouldn't be able to hear it, since sound only traveled one way through the barrier, she decided it wasn't worth the headache. Besides she figured Sakura had to realize that if she wanted Naruto, she would most likely have to give up on Sasuke.

She made sure her genjutsu was in place making her appear older and then dropped the barrier. As expected Sakura's eyes went wide in surprise before the hurt she felt filled them. Before the girl could ask what they were all up to Tsunade said, ”I thought you had hospital hours.”

”I...I do,” her apprentice replied tearing her eyes away from her teammate who was chatting quietly with Ino and Hinata, ”but Shizune was looking for you. Since she was looking for you without much success, I thought I would help while it's my lunch break.”

Tsunade smiled since if she knew her first apprentice the woman after not finding her in the hospital was probably searching bars and the limited gambling parlors that Konoha had to offer. ”Hey it is lunch time,” Naruto suddenly blurted, ”I'm going to Ichiraku. See you later Tsunade, Sakura.”

Naruto waved to them as he walked away with Ino and Hinata going with him. Ino sent a sad look her friend's way, but didn't say anything.

Tsunade frowned, but had to give Naruto some credit. He left making it clear he didn't want Sakura to follow but did so in a way that it appeared that he simply thought she had been there looking for Tsunade. While she admitted she might be over thinking what she had just witnessed. She suspected she was right, having weaseled the reason Naruto was acting so distant out of Ino.

She forced Sakura's attention onto her saying, ”Did Shizune tell you what she wanted with me?” She began walking back to the village taking a separate route as Naruto.

Following the Hokage, Sakura said, ”No, just that she ran the test you asked her to. She did mention that your theory was right though.”

Tsunade would have smiled at being right if she didn't feel that it also meant she was right about Kanji having been up to no good. ”I see, thank you Sakura.”

”Do you mind if I ask what this is about?” Sakura asked although she really wanted to know why Naruto had been doing training with Tsunade, Ino, and Hinata but had left her out.

Figuring that it wouldn't hurt Tsunade said, ”Recently I got my hands on a scroll and despite it appearing rather old. I believed it to be newer than it appeared. I gave a sample to Shizune to test its age.”

”But what does that mean?” Sakura asked not really understanding the importance.

”That's what I would like to know,” Tsunade thought to herself wondering just what Kanji had wanted to achieve in giving Naruto the scroll.

*****************************

Hinata approached Ichiraku the day after her date with Naruto. It had been everything she had ever dreamed a date with him would be. However, unlike Ino her chakra was still the lime-green that signified that she still had doubts. However she had also noticed that it was a lighter green then before almost yellow to which she figured may have reflected the jealousy she was feeling towards the other girls.

She sighed knowing that she would have to tell Tsunade as it was Hinata's job to inform the Hokage about the various changes in their chakra colors. As well as to occasional scan the village in order to make sure that other kunoichi weren't operating there under someone else's influence.

But with her own chakra moving further away from the red that she sought. She had decided to talk to Ayame. Maybe finding out how the waitress viewed her place in Naruto's life would help Hinata come to terms with hers. Entering the stand, she tried to smile as she heard the content humming of Ayame. But found it difficult as she wished she had never learned about the changes in their chakra.

”Hello welcome to Ichiraku,” Ayame said with a bright smile welcoming her.

Hinata forced one onto her face, but noticing there were other customers frowned since it meant her questions would have to wait. Ordering a bowl from the menu, she ate slowly hoping no new customers would arrive. After an exceptionally long wait the last customer left leaving Ayame free to chat about more Naruto related topics.

Hinata could see that she was eager to ask about her date with Naruto, but before she could the Hyuuga inquired, ”Ayame do mind if I ask you a question.”

”Sure Hinata.”

”Why don't you have any doubts about Naruto?”

Ayame pulled back not expecting such a question. Tsunade had told her much of what they learned and when she had asked what hers had turned to, was told red as well as what that meant. She hadn't inquired about any of the others but guessed Hinata's wasn't and that it bothered her. Ayame thought for a moment before giving the most honest answer she could come up with, ”Because I'm finally where I want to be and I don't really care about what it took to get here.”

Surprised at the waitress's answer Hinata asked, ”It doesn't bother you that Naruto probably wouldn't have chosen you if he hadn't been given that jutsu.”

”No, not really,” was Ayame's chipper answer.

Hinata's frown deepened having said something similar to Naruto when he had asked her after they had been together. ”What makes it true for her?” Hinata thought and could almost feel the color of her chakra growing more yellow.

Ayame noticed her words had a negative effect on Hinata as the Hyuuga looked down at the bar in thought. Wondering what she could do to help bring the girl out of her funk she said, ”You probably don't know this, but Naruto broke my heart.” Hinata looked up surprised so Ayame continued her story, ”I first met him when I was seven years old. He was about four, and was constantly causing trouble for the people at the orphanage.”

”He didn't always live in his apartment?”

”No, he lived in the orphanage until he entered the ninja academy,” Ayame answered. Picking up where she left off she said, ”He was avoiding the head lady whom he covered in paint. I guess she had been ignoring him for no reason, at least that's what he claims. However, I would tend to believe him because when I found him, he was crying over it. My mother had just died and my dad had to bring me to work since the stand wasn't as prosperous as it is now.”

Ayame smiled sadly remembering the day she found Naruto crying behind the stand. ”I invited him in and although looking back on it my dad had been nervous he still let me give him a free bowl. As you can imagine from that day on he was our number one customer.”

”But how did he break your heart,” Hinata asked riveted by what Ayame was telling her having no idea of Naruto's life before the Academy.

”Well two years later he would enter the academy and meet her,” Ayame said a little bitterness entering her voice. ”Up until then I would see Naruto ever day and he would tell me all that was new with him. I found myself slowly falling in love with him and then…”

”Hey Ayame,” Naruto had said as she began to remember the day.

”What is it Naruto,” Ayame had replied blushing a little as she brought him his bowl.

”Today was great; I can't wait to become an awesome ninja. But I saw the most beautiful girl in the whole world today. I think I'll ask her out tomorrow.”

A nine year old Ayame felt her heart break at the news and despite wanting to say something to the contrary said, ”…That's fantastic Naruto. I'm sure she'll say yes.”

Focusing on Hinata as the memory faded Ayame said, ”Well as I'm sure you know Sakura said no, having already formed her crush on Sasuke. But Naruto being Naruto never once grew discouraged and continued trying to make her notice him, while I just kept cheering him on.” Letting the sadness she felt fade Ayame said, ”That's why I'm actually happy he found that jutsu. I mean he treats us all equally, as well as with respect and recognizes that we are individual people.”

Hinata nodded and although she felt the jealousy that had been welling up inside her fade. Was forced to admit she didn't feel any closer to joining Ayame in the red chakra category. However just before she was about to pay for her meal and leave Ayame said, ”I don't think your problem stems from Naruto so much as your place in his d.e.s.i.r.e to unite the villages.”

Hinata looked at her in a way that said continue so Ayame said, ”I know Naruto picked me for no other reason than he had feelings for me. But for you and the others you actually have ways you can help him achieve his goals. I'm actually a little jealous.”

Hinata smiled kindly saying, ”I'm sure Naruto considers having a steady supply of ramen as a vital part of anything he hopes to achieve.”

Ayame laughed musically saying, ”I suppose you're right. But I think your doubts stem from your shyness and if you don't mind my saying lack of assertiveness.”

”What do you mean?”

”Well from what I've been told, it's easy to see why he went after Tsunade, besides the fact that he does care for her. Yet from what I understand Ino was chosen as more of a test subject. It just worked out that she would be the future head of the Yamanaka. But you were chosen for your position. That doesn't mean Naruto doesn't care for you, but I imagine if I was in your shoes I would fear disappointing him.”

Hinata nodded surprised Ayame had hit the nail on the head. However Ayame delved deeper into what bothered her then even she had saying, ”You have a sister correct. I've seen her with your father from time to time.”

”Yes…” Hinata answered wondering what Ayame was driving at.

”She hasn't been branded with the Cage Bird seal. Isn't that normal procedure for siblings?”

”I…I'm a disappointment to my father. I suppose that if I had failed to become a shinobi, I would have been branded and Hanabi would already have been named heir.”

Ayame nodded saying, ”That's where I think your doubts stem from.”

”I don't understand, you already said that when you said I fear disappointing Naruto.”

”True, but not for the reason you think. I think that if you ended up in the branch family you fear Naruto would simply move on to your sister and seduce her for her position because you failed to achieve it.”

Hinata felt almost shocked at Ayame's assumption, but couldn't deny it. Her father had never denied he felt Hanabi was a better choice for the head of the clan. Hinata supposed that considering that almost since Hanabi was old enough to walk she had been the darling of the main house, did feel that it was possible should Hanabi be chosen as heiress that Naruto would seduce her and that Naruto would find Hanabi was a better lover than her as well. It was silly, Hinata supposed on the face of it, but since Hanabi seemed to excel at anything she put her mind too, felt it was a genuine concern.

Paying for her meal Hinata stood saying, ”Thank you, Ayame it was most enlightening.” Leaving the stand, Hinata wondered if the best way to confront her doubts was to ensure that such a situation never happened in the first place.

*****************************

Naruto arrived at the training ground promptly not wanting to upset his future sparring partner. He wasn't surprised to see her there waiting for him however. By the looks of things she had been rather early.

”Exactly on time, Mr. Uzumaki,” the masked Yuugao said sounding cool and business like. ”It appears that at least you haven't inherited Kakashi's perpetual lateness.”
