Naruto: Dream To Immortality - Chapter 191

Next is Guy who is just wearing his usual green jumpsuit and his usual bowl cut hairstyle.

“Hm? Didn’t you go to Yoruichi’s birthday?” Says Guy, since Yami always invites his students to any party as they are like his protege and his pride. They have, after all, made quite a name for themselves as Elite Jounin of Konoha and… as Yami’s students.

When Kurenai hears Guy ask her that she grimaces. “Yeahhh… I was invited… but Shiori, Yami’s wife, was staring daggers at me the whole time.”

Asuma on the other hand has his head on the table. “Yami goes to each of his children’s birthdays and spends time with them… my dad (Hiruzen) didn’t even come home most of the time.”

Guy just shrugs at what they say. “You guys are weird. Yami invites me to his daily youthful training and we even discuss Taijutsu Techniques together.”

Kurenai immediately looks at Guy with a fire lit in her eyes.

“Can I join? When are the meeting times.” Says Kurenai, even though it seemed like she was asking. In reality she was just stating her decision.

Guy just shrugs again and eats some beef that is brought over by a waiter. “Its usually in the morning, on top of the Hokage mountain. Though I can’t promise you anything. Sometimes he is there and sometimes he is not.”

Kurenai nods at this. “But there must be a rhythm to his meeting times and if I can only figure it out, I can meet up with Yami -sensei whenever I want.”

Asuma’s head is still on the table as a river of tears flows from his eyes. “Ahhhh, today really sucks.”

“Wouldn’t it be easier to just go to the Hokage Tower and ask to meet him.” Says Guy, wondering why Kurenai even goes to all of this trouble. Yami is truly free most of the time and he knows it, since he is regularly invited by Yami to teach Kiba Taijutsu.

“No! You don’t understand! If I do that I will seem too desperate.” Says Kurenai, trying to think of a way on how to meet Yami regularly, while at the same time away from his wife Shiori, who is like a bloodhound against any woman that approaches Yami.

*snore* That is when Asuma starts snoring, signifying that he is asleep.

Guy just orders another plate and Kurenai gets annoyed at this. “DON’T YOU EVER STOP EATING!?!”

This wakes Asuma up. “Huh! What’s going on…” He says while still half asleep and with a lot of alcohol on his system. But when he sees that nothing is going on he just goes back to sleep. *snore*

Kurenai notices that people from the other booths are looking over, so she settles down and says quietly. “Can’t you listen to my problems seriously for once.”

Guy shrugs again, for the dozenth time today. “I dunno what you want me to do. I just told you. Go and meet Yami, why are you so stressed about it. You were his student and he taught you countless genjutsu. Why are you acting so awkward about it now? You are like an Academy Fangirl.”

Kurenai grabs her head in frustration at this. “Ahhh…you don’t understand anything.”

As Kurenai hangs her head down on the table. Another female voice comes and says. “Hey whatcha all going?”

“Oh hey Anko, it’s just that Kurenai doesn’t know how to get in contact with Yami.” Says Gay, explaining to her the situation as Anko just sits down next to Kurenai.

“Hmmm… can’t she just go and ask to meet him?” Suggests Anko.

“That is what I said.” Inputs Guy.

“But that will make me seem desperate.” Explains Kurenai, in a sad mood.

“But you are desperate.” Says Anko, as she too orders some food for herself.

“Hey! I am not desperate.” W.h.i.n.es Kurenai.

Anko just shrugs at this. “Whatever makes you sleep at night… but, doesn’t Hokage -sama have like the Daimyo’s daughter as a wife and Tsume as his lover? Or is she his concubine?… side chick? What even is she.”

Kurenai’s mood immediately flops down when she hears that. “Ugh! Don’t remind me of that.”

“Yep, you are delusional. You can’t see reality. I work in the T&I Devision and I must say that Hokage -sama might also have something going on with that hot secretary of his.” Informs Anko, with a devilish smile on her face. “Also, one time I heard strange m.o.a.ns when I was outside of the Hokage’s Office, and when I opened it, the secretary had disheveled hair and was breathing heavily,… they were definitely… you know.”

“Agh! Don’t tell me that. I don’t wanna know it.” Says Kurenai, getting more anxious and annoyed the more Anko talks.

Anko decides to add fuel to the fire by saying. “Also… going after a married man? Never took you for that kind of girl, Kurenai.”

Kurenai just looks sad at this, she seems genuinely sad. That makes Anko cringe a little. She didn’t want it to go this far, she just wanted to tease Kurenai a little.

“Yami, always treats me like a kid. I am nineteen now. But whenever we meet he still treats me like I am half my age.”  W.h.i.n.es Kurenai, as a certain sadness is apparent in her eyes.

….

On the other hand Yami, who is still in his office. Is thinking of something else.

….

-Yami POV-

The Uchiha Clan, they don’t really act against me. But… they are dangerous, I absolutely fear their power. Any Uchiha with a Mangekyo Sharingan is one Uchiha too much.

After all, when the next person gets Kotoamatsukami he might not be as stupid as Shisui to tell other people his ability. That would be too dangerous for me, it could ruin my plans. I already have  Sharingan Farm with the Uchiha that I clone.

Danzo is dead so I will need someone else. Hmmm… I will also need to discreetly  manipulate Konoha’s population to have a more negative opinion on the Uchiha. That will push the Uchiha over the edge and then they will most likely plan a coup de ate, and try to overthrow me.

But at the same time my reputation will work against me. The Uchiha wouldn’t dare go against me, they know that I can single handedly crush the whole clan with  low difficulty.

Hmmm… I will need to plan around many things… but one thing is for sure, an unstable factor like the Uchiha has to go.
