The Gamer: Naruto World - Chapter 13
Chapter 13 – The Innocent Gathering
Knock! Knock! Knock!!
“Well, are you gonna go open the damn door?” asked Naruto as he looked at Raito who was standing in front of the door.
“Nope.” Raito answered in short.
Knock! Knock! Knock!!
“Ai, let me open the door then.” Sighed Naruto as he walked towards the door but was quickly blocked by Raito. Looking at Raito, Naruto shook his head and went to the backyard where he met Shikamaru and Chōji.
“Oi Raito, open the door, damn it!” roared the female voice.
“Not invited go home.” Roared Raito then turning rapidly he also went to the backyard.
“Yo Shika, Chōji.” Waved Raito.
“Morning.” Chōji and Shikamaru waved back.
“So anyone gonna tell me what is Ino doing here.”
Smiling lightly Shikamaru replied, “We are going to be a team after graduation and our parents wanted us to work on our teamwork and well, after your “encouragement” she has been quite troublesome. Asking for practice and even the diet plan is gone now. I didn’t want only me to be bothered so I told her that we were going to your house and she just followed us”
With slightly dazed look Raito shouted, “I can’t believe you plotted against me.”
“Hmph, aren’t you the one who started all this problem? If I am not going to give you your problem how can I live peacefully?”
“Y-you.” Raito opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything in rage and disbelief.
‘Seriously what was wrong with me? I so wanted to complete the quest I didn’t even think about the consequences. And I didn’t even get a good thing from it.’ Raito thought to himself.
“Oh for god’s sake just come to the back, Ino.” shouted Raito
Knock! Knock!! Knock!!!
“Ino-San I don’t think we should do this, why not just go from back?” said a weak little voice.
“Hinata-chan, we are civilized people so we cannot barge through. Moreover we are girls and girls should have some manners.” said Ino in a lecturing tone
“H-hai.” replied Hinata
Waiting for a period of time Raito g.r.o.a.n.e.d and went to open the door.
Ino quickly forced herself into the room where as Hinata gave a small bow. Coming into the room Ino plopped directly on the sofa. Lightly bruised areas could be seen which showed Ino was still practicing hard just a while back.
“Ino, Hinata you two came? Nice to see you both here.” said Naruto, he was really happy to have more people to join him.
“Yup that’s great.” said Raito in a monotone voice.
“Noticing that Naruto quickly replied, “He is really just like that at all time so don’t mind him.” and the same time elbowing Raito.
Well I didn’t expect this side of Naruto. It seems that Naruto is far better than any boy in this room.” said Ino as if mocking the other boys.
Naruto beamed at the complement.
In anger Raito stepped forward and seeing his action Ino gave a small smile then added, “Raito as host why are you not giving us anything to eat and drink? You know girls like sweet things, not much but a little will do, don’t wanna get fat, you know?”
As Ino was talking on and on Naruto had already made a clone to do him things.
Naruto move forward, giving Ino and Hinata some biscuits.
Smiling brightly Naruto said, “Here have some biscuits while the tea is being made.”
At the same time Shikamaru pulled Raito and revealed him some things, “Raito my old man told me that Ino, Shika and Cho team is being made this year. Also pops told me that you, Naruto and Hinata are on a team. Pops told me to work on our teamwork and help Ino to reach standard.”
Raito g.r.o.a.n.e.d, “How troublesome.”
‘It’s definitely that old man and that Hyuga clan’s doing.’ Raito mumbled
“It’s definitely due to your encouragement.” Added Shikamaru
“Me and my stupid mouth (and stupid quest).” replied Raito
“What happened has happened and what will happen will also happen eventually.” sighed Raito
“OK, let’s start the day.” shouted Raito
With that Raito went to the kitchen. Ino and Hinata were both confused. Seeing that Raito had no intention on explaining Shikamaru smiled and explained them.
Raito, Naruto, Shikamaru and Chōji started to meet minimum once a month in Raito’s house where they started competing who makes better food and who will have the last bite. Competition could be anything- a fight, a game of tag or even pranking someone.
“Chōji come here and look what I made.” Shouted Raito
Raito turned off the fire and slowly lifted the lid of the pot, the steam coming out of the pot and the aroma smelled heavenly. After fully opening the lid one could the brown slab of meat with some vegetables and the golden brown gravy slightly radiating on light contact.
Chōji smelled it and couldn’t help but run towards the pot. But was stopped by a heavy foot to the face. Chōji plopped down but quickly got up looking as pitiful as possible.
“Not even a drop. Hmph!” And with a snort the pot totally disappeared to the inventory
Raito quickly pushed Ino back and glared at her, “it’s just a family jutsu I am using.” after saying that Raito went in front of Shikamaru and Chōji then asked, “This time we do it two versus two, Naruto and me against you and Choji. How about it?”
