Chapter 61: Grand Opening: Part I



Chapter 61: Grand Opening: Part I

Naruto stepped from the shower room located between the Dens master bedroom and Club N. He dressed slowly, trying to draw out the process since although he intended to do the honorable thing, he wasnt in a hurry to have his nuts crushed by sand. Pulling his cloak on, he looked back to see both Temari and Karura laying closer to each other now that he wasnt between them. He smiled softly as he looked at Karuras foxmark which was located in the same place as her daughters. Walking into the hall to Hiraishin since he didnt want the light of his jutsu to wake them, he took a deep breath and then teleported to Gaaras office.

*****

Gaara looked up from his paperwork as a red flash attracted his attention. He could tell Naruto was uncomfortable, and recalling the last time that he had looked so nervous said, Im guessing that youre here to tell me that youve slept with my mother now.

Narutos mouth dropped down as he said, How

Gaara let one of his few wide smiles appear as he explained, Naruto, you are my friend, but truthfully youre never going to be known for your restraint with the frequency that you add lovers to your harem. In fact I was counting on you eventually seducing her. That was the entire reason for me sending her to Konoha.

What why didnt you say something then? Plus why would you even want me to be with your mom?

Gaara stood folding his hands behind his back as he walked around the desk while explaining, Your ambition is no longer your own Naruto. And no, Im not just referring to your lovers. I also consider it to be a goal worth striving for which is why it was necessary to remove my mother as a threat to it. Coming to a stop before the blond man, the Kazekage said, My mother was one of the firmest Hardliners to be found in her day. She like my father was against the alliance with Konoha. She had a seat on the Council and although that seat was taken after her death. Once I brought her home and explained her reappearance a new seat would have been created for her. A seat she would have likely used to oppose our goals unless she had a change of heart which is where you come in.

Well actually your sister was the true driving force behind us getting together, Naruto admitted with a smile. Growing serious he said, I promise to cherish her and to prove myself worthy of the trust youve shown in me to do so.

I know my friend, Gaara said holding his hand out which Naruto shook, because the day you dont is the day you cease to be a man worthy of his own ambition.

*****

Naruto reappeared in the Dens master bedroom after talking with Gaara and his dick immediately sprung to attention as he arrived to the sight of Temari and Karura lying on the bed side by side with their legs spread and a pair of fingers buried in the others pussy. They were kissing wetly, and upon noticing him created some space between their lips and showed him their tongues rolling against each other. They began working their fingers faster trying to bring the other to release and both women climaxed together under the hungry gaze of their lover.

Naruto began pulling his clothes off as the women offered their drenched digits to each other. The blond man drank in the sight of the mother and daughter cleaning their releases from the other womans fingers. Once cleaned, they began kissing again until Temari broke away to say with a smirk, Still in one piece I see. I told you Gaara wasnt going to be upset.

Naruto grinned as he said, You were right.

Of course I was, Temari said before leaned down to kiss her mothers collarbone.

Karura moaned before commenting, I still cant believe my own son would plot for me to be seduced by his best friend.

Naruto sent a slightly surprised glance to Temari who looked back at her lover to explain, I told her why I thought Gaara wanted her to become your lover. Stop me if Im wrong, but basically once a cover story is created to explain my mothers return a spot on the council will be created for her. I can imagine that Gaara wouldnt be too thrilled at getting rid of Joseki only for the Hardliners to gain a new ally in our mother.

Thats about the sum of it, Naruto stated. Focusing on Karura, he said, I hope this doesnt change things for us.

Karura smiled softly as she said, Is your reason for seducing me or in this case my daughter pushing us together really that different in my case then any of the other women youve charmed. Naruto shook his head supposing that it wasnt although he had sought out the women in most cases. Karuras grin grew wider before stating, If there is something to be upset about it is that you are standing erect before me and despite the show my daughter and I have put on for you, have yet to bury that magnificent cock inside one of us.

Mmm, now thats something to get behind, Temari said before prompting her mother to get on her hands and knees. Kneeling beside her as Karura rested her face on the mattress Temari spread her mothers asscheeks apart. She then licked the older womans rosebud before stating, Speaking of behinds, it would seem that my mom wants to find out what its like for your cock to be buried inside hers.

Karuras body flushed from her daughters comments as well as from having the matter come up so quickly. She had woken from her extremely sated state that morning to find her daughter drinking the cum that Naruto had deposited in her pussy. From there the two had pleasured each other, in between Temari explaining why she believed Gaara had wanted her to enter into the harem while awaiting Narutos return. Karura had also inquired of her daughter about how it had felt to have the large jinchuriki inside her rear. She had confessed to wanting to experience it herself before her death, but had been too embarrassed to approach the subject with her husband.

Naruto smirked before replying, I believe I can help her satisfy her curiosity. He stepped onto the bed coming up behind Karura as Temari continued to run her finger around the edge of her mothers anus. The younger kunoichi smiled up at her lover as he stood before her, she pushed her finger inside her mother even as she rose up and began to suck Narutos dick. The jinchuriki groaned as Temari loudly slurped on his cock making sure to make it nice and wet for her mother. Satisfied with her job, she let Naruto slip from her lips and pulled her finger free of Karuras ass before she then once more spread her mothers butt cheeks for her lover.

Naruto crouched down behind the woman, who tensed upon feeling his cockhead press against her back entrance. Relax Karura, Ill take it slow, Naruto said waiting for the kunoichi to follow his advice. Feeling the resistance against his egress lessen, Naruto pushed a little harder and groaned along with his newest lover as her asshole opened enough to take the head of his cock. He fed the rest of his dick into her slowly causing Karura to fidget slightly as a result of the unfamiliar feeling. Naruto paused giving her time to adjust. It was a task made difficult for both of them as Temari began licking both his cock and the tight ring of her mothers ass wrapped around it. Naruto began to resume finding the added lubrication of Temaris saliva aided his final push.

Bottoming out inside Karura, he began to slowly pull out but once a third of his length was free he pushed back in. He kept giving her such shallow strokes, until her slightly uncomfortable cries turned into more pleasurable sounding moans. He then increased the speed and strength of his pounding cock as well as withdrawing about half before slamming it back in.

Naruto moved his hands from the cheeks of her butt which he had been fondling to grip her hips before giving her his full length. Karura cried out as she received Narutos dick at full throttle. She raised her face from the mattress, and her cries softened as Naruto began giving her shallow strokes once more. He compensated, by grabbing her under the arms and pulled her up against his chest. He angled her face towards him and kissed her deeply. Naruto then fell back pulling her with him so that she laid on his chest. She cried out as gravity forced her onto his dick, but then she began to lose the feeling that had been building up inside her as Naruto refused to move. She tried to grind her ass against his groin to entice him into pumping his cock within her again, and although he did groan softly. He stubbornly remained motionless.

He nibbled on her ear, before stating, Ill let you set the pace. I want to watch you ride my cock to completion.

Karura rose up and planted her feet on the bed before slowly raising up on his shaft. She then just as unhurriedly lowered herself back down it. She looked over her shoulder and felt her body grow hotter as she noticed her lovers eyes fixed squarely on where she was currently wrapped around his shaft. She put the feeling to good use as she began to increase the speed of her movements enjoying the moment where the calm look on Narutos face began to contort into one of pleasure as he couldnt deny how good her ass felt.

Temari moved before her bouncing mother and caused her to tighten even further around the dick inside her as she began rubbing her clit. Ooh shit.Temari

How does he feel inside you mother? Temari asked huskily.

Fucking.ffantastic Karura said between moans, II never I never would have thought anal sex could be so good.

Just the anal, Temari said lowering her lips to her mothers tit. Karura arched her back sliding to her knees and placed her hands against Narutos chest to remain upright. Now that her mother wasnt bouncing as she ground her ass into Naruto, Temari found it easier to slip two of her fingers inside. Pulling her mouth away from the tit she used to suckle as a baby she continued, What about all those orgasms I gave you while we waited for our stud to return? Are you saying they didnt feel just as amazing? Karura moaned as her daughter worked her fingers inside her. Temari began to run her tongue over her mothers nipple before running it down her body, extracting her fingers she added, Lets do a side by side comparison.

All the strength faded from Karuras arms causing her to fall back against Narutos chest as Temari clamped her mouth to her mothers pussy. The womans cries doubled in volume as Naruto wrapped a strong arm around her torso and began pumping his dick inside her butt. They were swallowed a moment later as Karura turned her face to him and stuck out her tongue which Naruto quickly began to suck on before engaging in a wet and passionate kiss.

He looked down Karuras body meeting Temaris gaze as she stuck her tongue deep inside her mother. He made a plus shaped hand-sign and a clone burst to like behind her. Temari was forced to pull her mouth away as the clone pushed its dick inside her dripping wet cunt. She moaned contently at the feeling of being speared by the perfect replica of her lovers dick, before resuming her tongue fucking of her mothers snatch.

Karura was in heaven as she couldnt think of a time where she had felt so sexually free. Or been taken to the heights of pleasure she was currently experiencing. Her husband had been quite competent in his taking care of her needs. But, there were limits to what one man could do. Not to mention how she had been too timid to break free of the normal pattern they had established or to try other things such as anal as she had felt it to undignified for a Kage and his wife to engage in.

Karura couldnt deny that she was now fully committed to Naruto as she couldnt reject what her daughter had told her when she had first experienced his dick. It would have been a travesty if the Sand and Leaf had remained enemies as her son would never have found his first friend, and she wouldnt be enjoying the benefits of that meeting.

Her eyes grew wide as the dick inside her swelled due to Temari beginning to fondle Narutos ballsack. With one last push, he buried his kunoichi tamer, which Karura had heard her daughter describe it the night before, as deep as he could before unleashing a torrent of cum inside her bowels. Karura came hard from the feeling of liquid fire pouring through her, as well as Temari screaming her own climax deep inside her muff.

The clone behind Temari burst into smoke after delivering its seed to her womb. She licked her mothers pussy to drink all the fluids it had released during her orgasm. She then climbed atop of the two and kissed her lover letting him taste her mother. Karura soon came down from her orgasmic high and muscled her way into the kiss as well. Ending the three-way kiss Temari pulled back and asked, So tell me mother, how does it feel to be a whore for the Uzumaki?

*****

Ino, Sakura said, as the Yamanaka addressed the question to Karura.

The Suna kunoichi blushed, but giggled as she said, Its okay. My daughter asked me the same thing this morning. Focusing on the blonde she added, And to answer your question it felt fantastic.

Miya let out an internal sigh, watching as the other kunoichi piled on to start asking about the womans experience with the man they all shared. She had given up trying to stop them, since she knew that so long as Kurenai or to a lesser extent Kushina were not around the women tended to not hold back on their activities with the only man living in the building. Miya would admit to being a little surprised by the womans quick reversal, but considering that it appeared that both Tsunade and Gaara had planned for such a thing supposed she shouldnt have been.

The official story for why Karura was living in the Hidden Eddy Inn which Miya had been told. Was that Karura had been an early experiment for Chiyos Ones Own Life Reincarnation Jutsu just after she died, except a condemned criminal had been used and as such had had mixed results. Although she had been resurrected, she had remained in a coma. That was until after the chakra wave that had hit Suna. It had awakened her, but Gaara had kept the news a secret arranging for her to be sent to Konoha secretly since he had feared the results would be temporary. With Konoha having been hit by several Chakra Waves, the Kazekage had felt they would be the ones best suited to insuring her mother was fine.

Naturally, the actual events had differed from the cover story, but Miya doubted anyone would look into the matter too closely. Even if they did, she was sure that Tsunade had already managed to make it appear that she, Sakura and Shizune had been the ones treating the woman during her stay in Konoha at Kiyomis mansion. Miya wondered how they intended to deal with Kabuto since he would know the truth, but she suspected that Naruto although aware of the danger wasnt going to let that stop his newest lover from returning to her home and children.

Taking a sip of her tea, she was forced to admit that was something that she admired about the young man. He didnt let his concerns stop him from doing what he felt was right, and having known the pleasure of being reunited with his mother. He intended to let his friend enjoy the same thing. Still, Miya felt it was a dangerous game, since at present Kabuto might be interested enough in Naruto to keep quiet in order to see what he was up to. But giving him more puzzle pieces could come back to haunt him at some point.

Miya gave a mental shrug, as it might work to her advantage especially if Kabuto shared his knowledge with Tobi. She had little doubt that the one she wished to see dead, Kisame, was still working with the masked man in some capacity. If that was the case, then should they move against Naruto, she would be in a prime position to enact her revenge on the fishman. Miya though was surprised when her thoughts of Kisame didnt inspire the usual strong hatred that they typically did. In their place, she felt a strange sensation of guilt as she pictured pure blue eyes looking at her in disappointment.

She frowned as her thoughts turned to Naruto, and how he didnt exactly approve of her single-minded devotion to removing Kisame from the world. The blond didnt dispute that her doing so would probably make the world a better place, but had repeatedly claimed he was concerned about what effect doing so would have on her. She couldnt deny that there were perhaps some parallels between her desire and Sasukes. But she had told him that there was no need to be concerned since with the previous Mizukages death her quest for revenge would end with Kisame.

Naruto hadnt seemed convinced, and a part of Miya was perhaps forced to admit that she may be lying to herself. The primary reason that she had begun to doubt the truth of her statement was a simple question which Naruto had asked her the last time they had talked on the subject, After you kill him, whats next?

It had been a question which to her shock she hadnt been able to answer. After all, even with the increase in her chakra and developing a fighting style she believed would give her the edge against Kisame. She was forced to admit there was a better than average chance she wouldnt survive the encounter. But provided she did, and Kisame died on her blade, she still couldnt imagine what she intend to do with her life.

She had considered staying on and running the inn, but she felt that if she completed her goal then she wouldnt deserve to stay. After all, the women that stayed there along with the man that they were bound to were all dedicated to loftier ideas then revenge. She didnt think they would force her out, but she didnt know if she could stay in such a place. But that did leave the question of what she planned to do after. She frowned as she still couldnt come up with anything, but hearing an amused Ino comment on her looking so serious focused back on the present, Whats got you frowning so hard?

Nothing of import, Miya replied picking her tea up to take another sip.

Oh, Ino said obviously in disbelief, I thought that perhaps you were jealous that Karura got to enjoy Narutos cock, but you still havent.

Miya spit her tea out as she sputtered, Wwhatdont be ridiculous.

Whats so ridiculous about that? Ino replied almost childishly. Ive seen the way you look at him when he and Ayame give you cooking lessons together. I bet you picture yourself in Ayames place when he hugs her from behind while shes stirring something at the stove.

Miya didnt deny the womans words held some truth since Ayame had recently begun aiding Naruto with the cooking lessons he gave in exchange for her help practicing his skill with weapons. Watching the two together, as they acted tenderly with each other, while the three of them cooked did fill Miya with a sense of longing. But, she had held onto her desire to kill Kisame for too long to be dissuaded from her self-appointed quest. Something she imagined Naruto would make her do before taking her as a lover and so she pushed those thoughts to some empty place inside her. Yet, she wondered if it truly was as empty as she believed seeing as her desires for the blond seemed to grow while her hatred for Kisame appeared to be shrinking.

Ino smirked as she said, Im sure its only a matter of time before you realize the truth.

Which is? Miya asked as she felt all the eyes of the other women at the table zeroing in on her.

That youve already fallen for him, Ino said with a dazzling smile, You just havent started to reap the benefits yet.

Youre wrong, Miya said confidently. But it began to wilt as she noticed how smiles began to appear on the other womens faces as if they were now seeing the same thing that the Yamanaka did.

*****

I trust you didnt experience any difficulties in locating this item? Kiyomi asked addressing the woman standing behind her as she examined an ancient stone tablet in her study, which the woman had brought.

No more than usual, she replied.

The red head turned raising an eyebrow as she took in the young womans appearance. She was wearing an orange short sleeved sweatshirt under which she wore a long sleeved white shirt. She also wore blue cargo pants obviously appreciating the pockets in her chosen profession as an adventurer. She wore them tucked into the red boots that she wore to protect her feet from the critters and harsh terrain of the areas she tended to explore in order to find the exotic or ancient objects that she traded in.

The woman smirked as she added reading the disbelief in her clients eyes, Hey, when you trade in the weird and unusual even the strange stuff I see can feel kind of mundane.

I suppose so, Kiyomi conceded wondering briefly how the woman would react if she knew she was working for a Bijuu. I appreciate your assistance and discretion.

The young woman shrugged before replying, My uncle always tells me keeping a low profile is a necessity in this profession. But I am curious; there were far more valuable items in that temple. Why are you so interested in that tablet? Not to mention, how did you even know where to find that temple?

Kiyomi turned back towards the stone, which although she couldnt read the strange language depicted on it. It did have ancient pictures carved into it which detailed what she believed had led the civilization that had created it to ruin. What bothered her was that one of the carvings depicted a man, who had one half of his body covered as if by a shroud of some sort. It was difficult to tell as the stone didnt really differentiate colors. But the shrouded half of the figure was raised up almost like a second skin covered that portion. She ran her fingers over some of the hieroglyphics and stopped as she recognized one of the symbols. It was shaped somewhat differently than it was currently, but Kiyomi didnt have much trouble recognizing it as an early precursor to the current mon of the Senju Clan.

Aware that the woman was waiting on answers for her questions Kiyomi turned towards her and crossing her arms amused asked, Did your uncle not warn you about the hazards of having too much curiosity.

The womans brown eyes twinkled mischievously perhaps sensing that Kiyomi wasnt threatening her. She inclined her head but said, He has, but my uncle Jackie tends to be too cautious for his own good.

I see that Tenten was right about you, Kiyomi replied. Im glad she recommended you to me, Jade.

You know Tenten, Jade Chan, the niece of the proprietor of Konohas House of Daggers, said surprised.

Indeed we are acquaintances, Kiyomi said with a soft smile, she belongs to the Womens Bathing Association that meets here.

Dont you mean Konohas Women Bathing Association?

Weve expanded since then and have invited members from various villages and countries. I guess you can say calling it such still would be doing a disservice to the women from outside Konoha who are members, Kiyomi said before turning away.

And how does one become a member?

Well there isnt any real defined recruitment method, Kiyomi answered. Are you interested in becoming a member?

Not really, it seems Im rarely in the village anymore due to the number of requests Ive gotten. But you didnt answer my question.

Well lets just say another acquaintance of mine discovered that temple long ago, Kiyomi said turning back to the tablet. Considering certain events she felt that it might hold some artifacts that may hold some sort of clue.

Are you referring to the Black Kyuubis appearance?

Kiyomis eyes went wide in surprise, but she regained her composure before she faced the woman. That is a pretty specific guess. What pray tell leads you to believe that?

Jade approached the tablet and pointed to the ancient Senju symbol. The appearance of an all black Kyuubi has spooked quite a few people of influence. Much like yourself, they are turning to history to see if such a thing has happened before. Since the clans most closely associated with the Kyuubi were the Senju and the Uchiha when I recognized that tablet likely refers to both which is why I brought it. I assumed you were looking into it also. Im sure youre worried what kind of effect such a thing appearing can have on your business interests.

True, I recognize the Senju crest, but are you saying this tablet refers to the Uchiha as well?

Jade nodded as she pointed to a symbol far different than the current Uchiha symbol of the fan. This would be the symbol the Uchiha clan used up until around ten thousand years ago when it evolved into a closer representation of what we know it as today.

Kiyomi searched her memories and still had difficult recalling seeing the symbol, but truthfully had been less inclined with studying the men and women who wore it then destroying them when encountered. Fascinating, but how do you know that?

Jade frowned while recalling several past experiences with clients. There are lots of people interested in collecting ancient relics associated with various clans. But because the Uchiha used such a vastly different symbol in the past a lot of the more amateur collectors need to be assured artifacts bearing this symbol are indeed from the Uchiha. One even refused to pay me despite the hassle I went through to get it.

Well rest assured you dont need to worry about that in this case, Kiyomi said moving towards the other side of the desk. Pulling out a stack of money she handed it to the young woman.

Theres more here than we agreed upon, Jade said able to tell as the wrapped bills was easily double what she had been expecting to receive.

I was perhaps hoping to hire you on a retainer basis, Kiyomi stated coming back around. Jade looked a little uneasy as she had experience with such arrangements in the past where a person placing her on retainer would expect first crack at the artifacts she found and sometimes would even demand she screw over other clients. Kiyomi quickly tried to put the woman at ease that she wasnt such a person by saying, I wouldnt want to put you in a position that would make you uncomfortable. I simply ask that if you come across other such items that meet the criteria that I gave you during your travels and which are not destined for others that you might give me an opportunity to make an offer first.

That shouldnt be a problem, Jade said sticking the money in a pocket. Ill even give you rubbings of items that already have been promised to other clients.

Excellent, the red-head said pleased, Ill contact you through the usual channels if another location that catches my attention pops up. I trust you can see yourself out.

Jade nodded, turning to leave just as a beautiful dark-skinned blonde woman entered the room. There were three other women following in her wake, followed by a mousy light blonde haired woman wearing glasses. Jade walked by giving them a wide berth feeling that the three women following the first blonde were rather particular about how close people got to the woman that appeared to be in charge. She gave Jade a curt, but polite nod before proceeding past her to approach Kiyomi. The young adventurer found her curiosity peaked by the strange group, but was confident that if she dallied she would be invited to leave before anything meaningful was discussed. Still, her senses told her something big was going on so figured she might look into a few rumors related to other Senju or Uchiha artifacts so as to not only prove herself worthy of the retainer fee she had been given. But also to perhaps learn what it was that the red-head was hoping to discern from the relics and what bearing it might have on the present.

***

Tier waited until the woman left before asking, You arent going to have her escorted out?

If you wish to see her to the door be my guest, Kiyomi said waving Shiho forward.

Lady Tier isnt your bellhop you

I suggest you remember who it is you are addressing, Kiyomi said firing a spike of killing intent into the hot blooded Emilou Apacci which caused her to trail off, as for a moment she saw the red head as the beast she had been which gave her a smile before lunging forward to swallow her.

Tier stepped between Kiyomi and the black-haired woman, who fell to her knees as the vision ended. Is it wise to flare your chakra before your guest even leaves?

I think youll find my control is such that outside this room nobody felt a thing, Kiyomi replied turning away. You should consider muzzling your follower sister before her mouth writes a check she cant cash.

Emilou looked like she was considering charging the nine-tailed Bijuu, but Tier held her hand out to tell her not to bother. Changing the subject she asked, It would seem the old temple held something of value after all?

Indeed, Kiyomi said happily before turning towards Shiho who had ignored the bickering to begin studying the tablet.

The cryptographer pulled out a book from her pouch which she searched through it while saying, If I had to guess I would say this tablet predates even the Gelel Empire. Where was it found?

In a temple located in an extinct volcano within what is currently the Land of Earth, Tier answered causing Shiho to look back at her.

Kiyomi read the question on her face so answered it by stating, Tier was the one that clued me in on those ruins. She used them as a home when trying to remain unnoticed in the last few centuries.

Did you know about this tablet specifically? Shiho asked directing her attention to the former Five-Tails having splintered off two and some of her will to give life to her followers.

Tier approached it although she already knew the answer, but paused to inspect it. No, however it felt like a prudent place as it was filled with various treasures. Kiyomi was the one that gave the woman what criteria to search for.

Shihos focus drifted to the red-head who explained, I simply told her to bring back any writings or other artifacts related to the Senju or the Uchiha. According to Jade this one tells a story related to both.

Shiho nodded recognizing the ancient Senju crest although that far back the Clan werent called such. She would need to do some research on the Uchiha as she didnt recognize any symbols that could be linked to the clan. Kiyomi pointed it out likely guessing what she had been searching for. The bespectacled woman drew it in her book figuring finding the symbol might help her with translating the rest of the tablet.

Pulling out some paper and charcoal she placed it over the tablet and began to take a rubbing so she could translate the tablet in her home where she had all her books.

Apacci watched with a measure of boredom so asked, Why waste your time digging up old pieces of trash? How did you even know something related to those clans would even be in the temple?

Kiyomi watched Shiho continue rolling the charcoal over the paper while responding, I didnt. For all I know that temple had nothing to do with either clan, but as Tier described it being loaded with artifacts I felt it was worth a look. Treasures tend not to stay in one place, but pass from kingdom to kingdom based on who conquers who. Its possible whatever civilization established that temple they did it after destroying several others and took what once belonged to them. Im not so much interested in the artifacts themselves, but the stories they tell.

Cyan unlike her fellow follower of Tier was interested in what was going on so asked, What is it you hope to learn?

Kiyomi frowned unable to exactly explain it herself, but stated, Im hoping to see if these cultists who call themselves the Decedents of the Moon have crossed paths with either clan in the past. According to the ones that you along with my brethren have talked with, this cult has existed in one form or another for as long as we have. Considering how quickly they are spreading I dont find that all too hard to believe.

Mila folded her arms leaning against one of Kiyomis bookcases before asking, I figured they were spreading due to the appearance of that Black Kyuubi. These humans are all in a panic stating that it is a sign of the end times.

Yet we know better, dont we? Kiyomi replied. The doctrine of these cultists is too well defined for it to be something that just sprung up. Furthermore, how they popped up all over the place rather from a central location would seem to suggest that there were already cells set up who took advantage of the Black Kyuubis sudden appearance and the fears it created to indoctrinate new followers.

But whats the end game? Apacci asked running her hand frustratedly through her hair not enjoying the conversation as most of it was going over her head.

That is what I hope to find through examining artifacts closely associated with the Senju and the Uchiha, Kiyomi answered. We know those clans descended from Tier and mines father. If these cultists are in some way connected to the Ten-Tails or the Rabbit Goddess as their name would suggest, then its likely that at some point they may have crossed paths with one clan or the other. Kiyomi turned back to the tablet just as Shiho was finishing her task. Kiyomi paused looking at the black pictures and hieroglyphs on the paper. She focused on the central picture of the half shrouded man seeing the white line where the raised portion of the tablet had been, walking toward the artifact she asked Shiho for the charcoal she had used. She then began coloring over the raised portion of the man that she had assumed was covered in a shroud, yet when she finished and saw the man half covered in black frowned deeply.

What is it Kiyomi, Tier asked wondering what had prompted her sisters actions.

Im not sure. Im probably grasping at straws, but among the multiple beings that call themselves Zetsu there is one which is half white and half black, the nine-tailed Bijuu said wondering what it could mean if Zetsu, or at least the Black Half was as old as them if not older. Konan stated that at times they could separate and operate independently of each other.

Apacci growing annoyed as the Bijuus pause grew longer prompted her by saying, So?

So, Im wondering if this Black Zetsu is even cut from the same cloth as the white one. We know there are multiple white ones that exist, so why have we only encountered one black one?

What does it matter? Mila asked with a shrug.

Tier was the one that answered as she replied, We had operated under the assumption that Akatsukis goal to capture us Bijuu was a plot Madara began and which Tobi seemed to be continuing. We had believed this was a plan decades in the making, but perhaps it is even older.

Perhaps, Kiyomi stated although a part of her didnt believe that was exactly the case, Or, perhaps it is but one plan which did take decades to unfurl and which we have likely wrecked. Yet, like a baker with multiple pies in the oven even if one comes apart there are others to take the previous plans place. That would mean that even a man as cunning as Madara was but someone elses pawn. Kiyomi stared at the tablet that she now felt alluded to a man who was half covered in darkness almost like a second skin. A man that could play even that bastard like a rank amateur is truly something to be wary of and what place would be better for such a creature to watch his pawn work then as an apparent flunky. It would keep him close and allow him to influence those unaware of his true intentions with them being none the wiser. Especially as he functioned in the capacity of being Akatsukis spy, it would allow him to control all the information those in charged received and as such influence their decisions.

But to what purpose? Tier asked the frown she was wearing easy to hear but not see due to the high collar of her jacket. Akatsukis goal was to capture and seal us in the statue which would revive the Ten-Tails. Yet I think we would have noticed if such a thing had been attempted in the past.

I agree, but there were likely conditions that needed to be achieved before even such a thing could be attempted, Kiyomi said moving to one of her high-backed chairs which she sat in regally. Despite us putting a stop to their ability to seal us away this condition may still be active, which means that if this cult is just a continuation of the true puppet masters plot the threat they represent may not be as diminished as we hope.

What does it matter? Apacci said dismissively, Even if they seal the Black Fox and eight tails they cant do shit after that.

That isnt necessarily the case, Shiho said folding the paper that she planned to use in order to translate the tablet. If this cult is connected in some way to Black Zetsu then their making the Black Kyuubi a part of their religion means at some point they might try to capture it. The knowledge that it is contained in Sora isnt well known outside of the upper ranks of Konoha and villages in our alliance, but it isnt classified either. Im sure that by now Black Zetsu knows everything he needs to about how that Bijuu came into existence. I doubt it would have mattered if it had been classified either. But regardless, the point is he might have tons of followers willing to take pieces of a Bijuu into themselves in order to perhaps act as incubators for more. Not to mention if he is much older than even Madara, then time is not a factor in his plans so it taking nearly twenty or so years to create a new Bijuu doesnt even phase him.

Cyan interjected, The biggest question then would be how many would he need to create.

Im not so sure that would be the biggest, Kiyomi said crossing her legs and folding her hands over her knees. But it certainly is an important one.

Then what would you consider it to be? Mila asked.

Looking back at the tablet she said, I suppose the question I am most interested in knowing would be if Black Zetsu is indeed some immortal being working towards reviving the Ten-Tails. Then why is he working towards such a goal and for whose behalf.

Shiho began walking towards the door saying, Well here is hoping at least a few of them can be answered once I know where this tablet came from and what it says.

Kiyomi watched the young woman leave to begin her task before focusing back on the tablet while wondering what story it told. Yet, a part of her suspected that she already had a decent idea having once been a pawn between a similar struggle between the Uchiha and Senju. A struggle she didnt doubt that although the principle players may have changed throughout the many millennia a similar theme had repeated over and over again. Looking at the charcoal covered half of the figure in the center of the tablet she also believed that perhaps they were close to figuring out why.

*****

The woman that had become Miya Asama had been defeated. She had always suspected that it was a possibility so long as she remained in the Hidden Eddy Inn. After all, she had noticed that as the time she spent in the house had grown, her previous strict enforcement of keeping the sexual shenanigans Naruto and his lovers engaged in had slowly lessened. The final surrender had happened after dinner when Naruto had returned from a date with Ayame where she had purchased the dress that she would be wearing to the Whirling Tides Manors Grand Opening. No sooner had they sat to join the other women then had Miya asked him to spar so as to prove that she wasnt going to succumb to Narutos charms.

Naruto had quickly agreed always up for some training, so already having had dinner with Ayame, he had quickly headed upstairs with her to change into some appropriate clothes. Miya had doubted that was all Naruto and Ayame had done, but it had given her time to attend to cleaning up after the meal. As she had cleaned, she had reflected on the changes that she had noticed in herself upon seeing her reflection in the soapy water. Naturally her face, body, and hair color were obvious changes having been modified by Kiyomi. But what was most striking to her though, was her eyes, which had been cold and lifeless since Kisame had tried to kill her along with the rest of her Cypher Division in order to protect the secrets they had possessed. Now though they seemed far warmer and expressive. In truth even when she had punished some of the kunoichi and Naruto for getting too carried away with their lusts, namely by delivering a quick strike with her bokken to the offenders skull. She could always feel the slight smile that she wore as she did so. In truth, she could say that her entire time in the Hidden Eddy Inn had been filled with such moments as the women and man that lived there had accepted her.

Moreover sometimes she felt as if they had included her in their sexual escapades as she would arrive in a room confident something had taken place but only be greeted by a slightly disheveled Naruto and whichever Kunoichi he had been with at the time. She would give off a slightly demonic aura which caused the Purple Oni faced genjutsu she used to appear while asking if they had been misbehaving. She found it amusing the way Naruto still broke down and admitted to his misdeeds whenever it appeared despite being confident that he could best her if pushed. Still despite that, the kunoichi seemed to have made a game of it by seeing who could be with Naruto out in the open without being caught.

Miya was quite sure that Naruto had placed a tracking seal on her at some point since she hadnt caught anyone acting inappropriately recently. Still she could enter a room and would almost be sure that Naruto and one of his lovers had been there, which would cause her to wonder what exactly had transpired followed by her body responding appropriately. She would try to push such feelings out of her mind, but it became harder and harder to do as she noticed more and more women joining the Harem. She supposed that Tokas joining had been the most difficult to ignore as the woman had been so unhappy before becoming one of Narutos lovers. Seeing her current behavior as well as her being a perpetual offender of sneaking moments with Naruto outside of his or her room, made the purple-haired landlady wonder just how good it must feel to be bound to him. She couldnt deny the change that had come over her mood just from being in his presence for a period of time, so only could imagine what being loved by him must be like.

But again she was brought back to her desire to kill Kisame, and while not as strong as before. She couldnt deny that it still existed. Considering what had happened with Narutos former friend Sasuke, she guessed that the moment her blade tasted Kisames flesh she would no longer be welcome in the inn. Miya had frowned at the thought not sure her revenge was worth such a thing any longer, but seeing her frown in the soapy water realized she had been daydreaming for quite a while. She had cursed upon turning to a clock to see it had been well after the time that she had said she would meet Naruto for a spar so had quickly dried her hands to meet him in the training room.

The room Miya was currently lying in as she ended her recollection of what thoughts had been running through her mind before finding herself defeated. She blamed Ino for it as she recalled racing to the training room located in the inn only to find Naruto leaning against the back wall with Ino crouched before him and his dick buried down her throat. Sshit Ino, Naruto said nervously noticing Miya standing in the doorway especially as her eyes drifted to the wooden swords in their racks.

Ino though hadnt even budge as she let Naruto pop free of her lips before moving to the side giving Miya her first unobstructed view of the piece of flesh Naruto had used to bound so many kunoichi to him while she ran her tongue down it. As such Miya didnt know if she was disappointed or relieved when Ino moved back up his length sucking on his cock once more while bobbing her head. The landlady was aware though that her throat felt dry which she tried to ease by coughing lightly.

Naruto took it as her trying to get their attention so began to say, IIno you need damn

Miya could hear the kunoichis sucking increase and guessed that Narutos strength faded with it as his hands gripped her by the back of the head as if all he could do was hang on. She guessed that wasnt far from the truth as a moment later, Oh shit Im cumming!

Miya felt the dryness in her throat grow stronger as she could hear Ino gulping to keep up with the flow flooding her mouth. She kept her mouth wrapped around his pole for a few moments after it ended swiping her tongue around the sensitive head to collect more of her favorite protein shake before letting him pop free of her lips with a refreshing sounding, Ahhh, thank you for the dessert Naruto. Then quickly pushing his dick back into his shorts she got to her feet and with a bounce in her step as she walked by Miya said, Hes all yours.

Naruto gave his lover an amused shake of his held and a soft smile which faded upon realizing he was now alone with the woman that on more than one occasion had wacked him on the head for similar such displays. Um I can explain

There doesnt seem to be much cause for it, Miya said moving towards the rack of wooden blades, It is quite apparent what happened. Im surprised I havent stumbled upon more such scenes recently. No doubt a result of some tracking seal you have placed on me.

She could tell she had hit her mark as for a moment his face looked like he wanted to ask how she found out. She admitted he impressed her with his honesty as rather than trying to lie he said, Well I placed it on you to spare you from them and my skull.

Miya laughed lightly as she supposed that while the punishment had been spread out for the women, Naruto hadnt been so fortunate. I suppose I could see why you would take such a precaution.

Naruto nodded before adding, Its also so I could know if you or the other women living here not bound to me where in danger.

A group that seems to be growing smaller, the landlady said genuinely touched by the concern as Naruto picked up his newest weapon the fighting sticks that Tenten had bought him.

Naruto shrugged as he replied, I suppose thats true. But that wasnt why I placed the mark on you or Kurenai. For her it was more about keeping my many relationships secret, while sparing you from getting caught up in them. But I also feel you are both a part of my family so want to be there in case anything happens to you.

The former Kiri-nin knew he was telling the truth, as well as was surprised at how Naruto viewed the unbound women living under what ultimately could be considered his roof. Still, she suspected that the scene she had come across had been a plot orchestrated by the blonde kunoichi that had left the room. Miya was quite aware that while Ino wasnt particularly jealousy of the women free to be more intimate with Naruto outside of places like the Den, or the Hidden Eddy Inn when she or Kurenai werent around. She did desire it in a more homely environment then the underground Den and likely wished she could occasionally be the official girlfriend like Ayame, or more often teamed with him like Sakura and Fu. To that end, Miya believed Ino wouldnt be content until all the women of the Hidden Eddy Inn were bound to her lover so she had at least a home with her lover where she was free to express her feelings. From the looks Miya had received at dinner, she guessed more than one kunoichi might have felt the same way.

Miya suspected the kunoichi would get what they wanted sooner rather than later, but in her case it would likely not be in the way they expected since she would likely be gone once she had confronted Kisame. Either by dying at Kisames hand or as a result of her actions she believed that she would be asked to leave. As she thought that, she had again been taken by surprise at how unhappy such a though made her. Hoping to refocus on her self-appointed task of revenge she pulled her bokken and assuming her stance waited for Naruto to do the same before attacking.

Miya had been defeated by the blond in their spare since although he had just begun training with the fighting sticks was still amazing proficient with him. The Kiri-nin assumed it was because they fit his personality better than the blades he had been using beforehand. She believed this since the weapons, while they could be deadly, allowed for Naruto to focus his strength on offense without the same fear of maiming and killing that the chakra blades had. As such, he didnt hold back like he had when sparring with his knives. Still, although Naruto had beaten her by hooking one of the sticks beneath her knee and pulling her off her feet. She had taught him the lesson of being too merciful by whacking his ankle with her sword upon hitting the ground and having the breath knocked out of her.

No fair you cheated, Naruto said rubbing the tender spot she had hit after falling to the ground.

If you are going to use a weapon not designed to kill, then you have to be on guard that an opponent will take advantage of that, Miya had warned still too tired to sit up but turning her head to look at him.

She looked away quickly finding her cheeks flushing as his bright eyes had turned towards her and a warm smile had graced his lips, I guess thats true. I might have won the fight, but would have had a difficult time winning the next one if I lost my foot in the process. When the landlady didnt look back but instead kept her gaze away he asked, Hey, whats wrong?

Nothing, Miya said blaming Ino for her sudden shyness.

Now thats a lie, Naruto said not buying her response, Your chakra wasnt as contained as you normally keep it when we train. It was flaring during our match quite a bit more than usual. You can tell me whats bothering you, was it catching Ino and me

It wasnt that, Miya said although a part of her shyness certainly was. However, she suspected the reason her usual tight control on her chakra had waivered was due to the doubts she had been feeling in regards to her desire for revenge. She received confirmation of such as without consciously thinking about doing so she asked, If I kill Kisame would I be welcomed back here.

She heard Naruto sigh telling her that he was looking away so her gaze drifted back to him. From her side profile of his face, she could see that he was giving her question a serious thinking before responding, Thats difficult to answer

I understand, she said turning her head away and was surprised to feel a tear run down from her eye as gravity pulled it free.

Naruto responded immediately to the sadness in her voice and lying down next to her turned her face towards his. Seeing the track the tear had taken he wiped it away before saying, You didnt let me finish. There will always be a place for you here, but whether it is a place you return to is up to you.

II dont understand, Miya admitted getting lost in Narutos blue eyes.

Revenge it does something to people, Naruto said sadly. It almost never seems to end with just the person looking for it or her target. I cant say the world wouldnt be a better place without Kisame in it, but whether you can return here or not isnt based on whether you kill him or not, but what is in your heart when you do it. If you kill Kisame in order to avenge your squad and yourself and that is the end of it if the hate you have for him can truly die afterwards then well all be here to welcome you back. But if it cant die and you need something else to destroy in order to satisfy it then the woman weve come to care about called Miya Asama wouldnt exist anymore, because she would be little different than the monster she killed.

Miya was aware that Naruto was still stroking her cheek and asked, HHow can I be sure it would end with Kisame?

By finding something other than revenge to live for, Naruto said softly, That you are worried about not being allowed back here tells me that you might have already found it. You just arent sure that you have yourself

Miya couldnt deny his words or the feelings they inspired in her so seized on them to cut him off by kissing him. She felt Naruto grow stiff in surprise, but he didnt resist and quickly deepened it much to her delight. It was at that moment that Miya knew she had been defeated completely as she succumbed to her desires.

A fact Miya delighted in as she returned fully to the present as she arched her back feeling Narutos tongue run up her pussy. Looking down her body, she could see the bulge in her hakama pants where Naruto having stuck his head up the loose fitting leg of them was now licking her snatch. Nno dont its

Fantastic, Naruto replied before sticking his tongue inside her causing Miya to cry out. Pulling his head out he brought his face towards her to kiss her once more. The browned eyed woman moaned as Naruto began to rub her mound through her pants before pulling back to ask, Are you sure this is what you want?

Miya bit her lips as she seriously considered stopping things, but Naruto hadnt stopped rubbing her pussy and unable to deny she wanted to feel his flesh against hers again nodded. Naruto grinned so reached into the opening on the side of her pants with the hand that had been teasing her pussy. He placed it over her mound noting the lack of panties which he had found when he had first ducked beneath her pants said, Isnt this a surprise, the proper landlady was going around the house without any underwear.

Iits because those women just kept filling my head with stories of how you were in bed whenever they could. IId get excited Miya said, often having to listen to the details whenever Kurenai wasnt around like she had during dinner.

What would they say? Naruto asked beginning to rub his finger over her slit.

Thatthat youd often get them ready by rubbing their pussies, Miya said moaning as Naruto began pushing on her cunt a little harder.

And then

Then when they were nice and wet youd slid your finger inside them, she moaned which deepened as Naruto followed her directions.

Like this?

Yes, Miya moaned before adding, Then youd kiss all over their bodies.

Naruto grinned kissing her neck and collarbone before working up to her ear which after nibbling on her earlobe whispered into her ear, And then

Miya gasped as Narutos finger found a particular pleasant part inside her. He began to rub his finger along it repeated causing her to reach down and grasp his wrist almost afraid of the pleasure now coursing through her. II dont know

Naruto chuckled as he said, Well then I guess I should

Dont stop, Miya said fearing that was what the man was about to say.

She need not have been concerned as he instead said, make you cum.

Naruto then flicked her clit with his thumb causing her to tense as she exploded into orgasmic pleasure. Her release coated his hand which continued to pet her insides despite her tightening around his probing finger. When she relaxed he extracted it and caused her to blush as he licked it clean. Looking down at her, he smiled as he stood and said, And now, Im going to make you mine.

Miya was pulled to her feet where Naruto kissed her once more. She wrapped her arms around his neck while their tongues danced and he untied her pants which once she was free of, fell to the ground. He grabbed her by the butt then lifting her up as he carried her to the back wall and pushed her up against it. Holding her easily he pushed down his shorts freeing his cock and began to line it up with her snatch. Yet she stopped him when she reached down and gripped his shaft. Nnaruto I cant promise I will not kill Kisame.

I know, Naruto replied gently, but I want to give you a place to return to so that revenge doesnt consume you.

Miya smiled softly before guiding him inside her which caused her to moan as he entered inch by magnificent inch. Once he was fully inserted Miya wrapped her legs around him and placed her lips against his as he began slowly fucking her against the wall. Miya locked her ankles behind his butt moving her feet with him to urge him on. Naruto didnt give in as he slowly fed and withdrew his cock causing her to exert more and more force. Finally though she broke the kiss to plead, Please, give me more. I I really want to feel you.

You will, Naruto said kissing her lightly, over and over again. But let me savor this moment.

Miya mewed softly as Naruto kissed down her neck before nipping her nipple through her top while still slowly working his shaft inside her. She waited until he pulled back before ripping one side of the haori aside to expose her tit to his gaze. Naruto smirked as she almost appeared frantic for more stimulation due to his slow pace. Giving it to her, he sucked on her tit while rolling his tongue against her red nub. She moaned appreciatively while pulling him tighter against her bosom. Naruto began to then increase his pace slowly at first but soon was matching the rhythm that her feet had been urging him to reach.

Yes Miya cried as she encircled her arms around Narutos head as he continued to suck and tease her nipple. Fuck me

Naruto pulled his mouth free of her tit and staring up from the valley of her breasts said, Youre gripping me so tightly. You must really have been suffering fuck

It was horrible, Miya admitted, Listening to thoseah youre pounding my womb listening to them Id masturbate almost nightly II didnt want to admit how much I wanted to join in

Naruto grinned before stating, You wont have to listen to second hand accounts anymore. Youre mine now, and Ill make sure you are completely satisfied in every way that matters.

Yes, Miya said tensing as she felt Naruto grow even larger within her and aware of what that signified, Are you going to cum? Go on hurry I want to be bound with you forever.

She screamed out as he tensed and filled her womb with his seed. To Miya it felt as if she had suddenly sprouted wings, as that was the only way to describe the exhilaration she felt from not only her climax, but also the knowledge that she was now and forever bound to the man holding her. Naruto deposited all his cum inside her before sinking to his knees taking her down with him. He rested his head against her chest and listened to her calming heartbeat before looking up and stating, Our fates are now tied Miya. Ill always be there to keep you from losing yourself.

Miya rested her forehead against his before replying, Mmmm, that will be difficult to do seeing as how I can no longer see myself anywhere but by your side. Now please, you still feel so hard inside me

Naruto took the hint and began pumping again from his kneeling position causing Miya to moan happily as her sensitive pussy still fresh from her previous climax quickly built to a new one.

*****

Ino smiled before closing the door to the training room already missing the sight of her lovers ass tightening and relaxing as he pumped his cock in his newest conquest. She pulled her fingers from her pussy and licked her juices from them while thinking, One down, two more to go.

She couldnt deny there was perhaps a smidgen of guilt that she felt at the thought since one of the two women was Kurenai, who had been her sensei s wife and lover. However, she imagined that her teacher would ultimately want Kurenai to be happy and she could think of no greater source of that then in the arms of Naruto. Still, perhaps as a part of that feeling she decided to direct her efforts on driving Kushina and Naruto together. But the primary purpose was because to Ino it was so painfully transparent that Kushina desired her son as a lover, but was letting the typical rules of society govern her decision. For Ino though, the Hidden Eddy Inn was a place outside of society and as such it had no place in deciding who could be with whom. After all, if society had its way Naruto would have to decide on one lover depriving the rest of them from the happiness they had found with him. A happiness that Ino didnt want to experience only in the Den or in the confines of the apartment that she shared with Sakura and lately his own. But in order to experience it on a grander scale, she needed to make the Hidden Eddy Inn exclusively Naruto familys turf and she intended to do so one woman at a time.

Figuring that Kushina might be the easier of the two women left, only because she was fully aware of what she was missing out on. She smiled as she heard Miya cry out in ecstasy once more and decided to head up to Narutos apartment for when he returned so she could begin the next phase of her plan and welcome her newest family member.

*****

Tsunami stood at the top of the steps looking down at the people dancing before the stage that had been erected. The outside was primarily for the young people of the village to celebrate the opening of the Whirling Tides Manor, an event which had kicked off several hours earlier, and would go on for close to a week. Watching the musical act on stage a young woman by the name of Aisha, she wondered if she was getting old not exactly understanding the appeal of the music. But watching the dark-skinned and blonde woman dancing on the stage wearing a white bikini top and matching low riding white pants that showed the straps of the matching panties she wore, she recognized a different type of appeal the woman had outside of her musical abilities.

Something a voice behind her hinted at as Rin said, We arent having dirty thoughts about the musical talent are we?

Tsunami smiled before replying, Well its difficult not to appreciate how attractive she is when one considers how she could one day be putting that talented tongue of hers to other uses.

Rin smiled before nodding towards Inari who was dancing with the girlfriend he had made while helping rebuild Konoha, What would your son say if he knew his mother was having such thoughts about the hired entertainment?

Far from being embarrassed she replied jokingly, I dont know perhaps something along the lines of, can I watch?

Rin giggled responding, I certainly know I would.

Tsunami squeaked in surprise as the kunoichi pinched her butt before moving down the steps holding a tray she was using to serve the various guest. The woman from Wave smiled at as a few of the guests obviously smitten followed the Leaf kunoichis movements. Much like her, they had come outside to watch the show, but were not willing to join in with the revelers before the stage. Tsunami couldnt blame the people watching Rin as she was dressed in a short business cut cocktail dress which although didnt show any cleavage, did come down only to about mid-thigh so exposed many of the waitresses shapely legs.

Turning away she proceeded back into the Manor and passed through the lobby to the grand ballroom and a celebration that was a little more her speed. A more traditional folk musician was playing on the stage singing about some ancient folk lore that tended to end poorly for all involved. Moving through the crowd, she spotted Kin dressed much the same as her fellow scout lowering the tray she held for a young woman named Rurichiyo Kasumiji. She was the daughter of the current Daimyo of the Land of the Seas brother. According to what she had seen thus far the young woman seemed rather spoiled, but wasnt a bad person. Rather to Tsunami it seemed that she was that way simply due to her being a member of the Kasumioji clan that had ruled the Land of the Sea for generations, and as such likely was always given what she wanted.

The green eyed and blond noble was perhaps still rather young to be considered a viable target for Naruto to seduce, but considering it had taken a little over two years to reach the current point in their grand ambition that wasnt to say she couldnt mature into a beautiful woman that might one day need to be charmed by the Leaf Shinobi.

Tsunamis gaze drifted over several other women present wondering which might one day become fellow Harem members. Her gaze landed on one in particular, the Priestess Shion. She noticed the woman, although talking politely to a young nobleman from the Land of Stone kept sending sidelong glances towards Naruto, who was regaling several guests about some adventure he had experienced.

Tsunami took a moment to appreciate the sight that Shion obviously wished she could be enjoying more unabashedly. Naruto was wearing a white cloak similar to his sage one if more formal, and matching white pants and shoes. His buttoned dress shirt though was red and standing between Sakura and Ayame it was obvious to her that he had dressed to match both women. Ayame was wearing a white strapless dress which hugged her body and reached only to just about mid-thigh, while Sakura wore a red dress that although much longer was slitted on the sides exposing her shapely legs. It was obvious to Tsunami that Ayame was enjoying her position as Narutos girlfriend since the blond man was forced to make his hand gestures using one hand as she had firm possession of the other one.

Turning back towards Shion, she noticed a frown appearing due to Ayame leaning in close to whisper something. Naruto nodded quickly before returning to his story while Ayame moved to a table stacked with refreshments and appetizers picking several she quickly returned to Naruto s side and then presented him one which he simply opened his mouth to allow her to place it inside. Naruto smiled at her contently as he began commenting on how good the food was.

Tsunami noticed that Shion wasnt the only one looking at the blond longingly, as Toki of Bird Country also seemed trapped in a conversation she would rather skip to be among those listening to Naruto talk. She smiled as she was sure the two women would then be pleased later that evening as she had seated them with Naruto for dinner, so wished them luck in putting up with the difficult task of being polite with their fellow nobles when something they desired was so close at hand.

*****

Karin looked over her shoulder and watched the people mingle on the first floor of the ballroom from the second. She was currently in a group along with Tsunade, Konan, and Mito, who was pretending to be Kiyomi, and was engaged in a conversation with several of the villages elders as well as her true target to impress with the nights festivities, Toma E Fiore, the Daimyo of Wave. A task that she seemed to have succeeded in as the short white-haired man got on his tip toes to look over the balcony before saying, Ah, it warms my heart to see this place restored to its former glory.

Im glad you are enjoying yourself, sire Karin said sipping some of the champagne from her glass while giving herself a mental pat on the back.

Please none of that, Toma said, Call me Toma. You must allow me to thank you for

Karin was going to try and use the opening the Daimyo was about to present in order to direct the conversation towards her goal of purchasing the remnants of the Gato Corporation and the asset that she truly desired the port he had built in Wave. However, before Toma had finished or she could begin the conversation a strict voice cut in, Father, shes a business person. The only thanks that she needs is the money that she will receive as this business venture blossoms. Stop acting as if she is doing us some favor.

The king frowned as he turned towards his daughter to reply, Hisui, you simple must stop being so critical of the business leaders that come to Wave.

Perhaps you should be more so since then Gato Karin studied the slim long green haired woman whose green eyes were coldly studying her as well. The Daimyos daughter trailed off as she knew her father viewed his greatest mistake as Daimyo to be trusting Gato and signing his non-competition contract that had allowed him to establish a monopoly in Wave. Father, Im sorry I

Gato was a pretty strange business man, Karin said attracting all the people eyes towards her before Hisui finished apologizing. I still dont exactly understand what his game plan was as they do not make sense from a business perspective.

Thats simple enough to understand, Tazuna said looking uncomfortable in the clothes his daughter had bought him so he looked the roll of village elder, it was to establish a monopoly.

But to what end, Karin said quickly seeing a way to turn things to what she wanted. A business person has to see the end results of his actions and expect good returns before undertaking them. To that end Lord Toma, your daughter is right. The best thanks I can receive for this evening is everyone enjoying themselves and telling their friends and family so theyll come here to spend their money. If I didnt think restoring this hotel would be a winning proposition, well I wouldnt have invested the money and the Sin Corporation would have torn it down to make a casino.

Considering some of the things we have uncovered about those linked to that company. Its probably best that Karin did see the potential in this place, Tsunade supplied helpfully.

Hisui though wasnt convinced that the Great Tree Shipping Company was an improvement but asked, Why do you say Gatos actions dont make sense? He was able to make tons of money as he fleeced this country with his exuberant fees for simple items.

Very true, but building a port in a country he intended to ruin doesnt make any sense. After all, if he manages to take all your money where does that leave him? Eventually no matter how badly you required something you simply wouldnt have a means to pay him. What does that leave him with? A port to deliver goods to, but no one with the means to pay for his merchandise. Sure he benefits greatly in the short term. But, what about in the long term? Weve all seen how well the Gato Corporation did after its monopoly was broken. It died a slow death as it tried to compete in an environment where competition was once again flourishing. This also doesnt exactly make sense to me.

Really why, Konan said a little surprised but also interested in the conversation seeing as she now straddled the line between Village Leader and Daimyo of the Land of Rain as Pain had ruled the entire country not just Amegakure.

The Gato Corporation existed as a legitimate business for many years before it took over a monopoly in Wave, Karin explained her curiosity having caused her to study much about the companys rise and fall. Yet, after it did establish it, the company began to pour almost all its resources into keeping its hold on Wave while letting its other business ventures outside of it flounder. As a result when the monopoly was broken it could no longer compete and fell to the wayside as competitors in those other markets had long since outpaced them.

That just proves why Gato was so desperate to hold onto Wave, Hisui said crossing her arms while sending Karin a look that made her feel like she viewed her as being little different than Gato.

Perhaps, but like I said that is simply short term thinking as he would be in the same boat when you could no longer afford his prices. This doesnt make sense when you look at how he was able to build his company in the first place, Karin said ignoring the daughters cold look to focus her attention on the father. Gato was a smooth operator as a young man and was able to secure capital and contracts so that in several short years his fleet rivaled companies that had been in business for centuries.

What is the point? Hisui said testily not liking the man that had been responsible for much of the suffering she had witnessed growing up being spoken of in a positive light. Gato was a conman and a monster.

True, but he had a keen business sense so he had to know what his actions were doing to his company. Yet he persisted, Karin said still unsure what Gato ultimately hoped to achieve, also in order to get people to go along with what he wanted he had to be able to convince them it was in their own best interests. How did he manage to convince you Lord Toma?

The short man frowned as he answered, He promised me that if he was given a monopoly hed transform Wave into a country unlike any other. I should have recognized his promise was an empty one.

Maybe not as empty as you might think, Karin said feeling as if something important had been revealed.

What do you mean? From what Ive heard of Gatos practically owning Wave, he certainly didnt uphold his promise, Mito said as she noticed Karin looking down towards Naruto in thought.

Only because he was stopped before he could fulfill it, Karin said in sudden understanding and excitement, I was operating under the assumption that Gatos monopoly was based on some business model, but what if it wasnt? What if his goal wasnt to bankrupt the people of Wave, but to steal the land from beneath their feet?

Dont be ridiculous, Hisui said quickly.

That isnt as farfetched as it might sound, Tazuna stated. Part of the reason I needed to build the Great Naruto Bridge was because people were abandoning Wave by the dozens. We had nothing left, and even the land was worthless since nobody wanted to move into Wave. If everyone had left then Gato could have just swooped in and picked it up for a song.

But what does owning worthless land and no customers get Gato? Mito asked with a frown since although Karin seemed to have gained an answer, it had left them with more questions. If his company was in such disarray, he probably couldnt have owned it for very long without a fresh influx of investors.

It might be best to stop thinking of it as a business matter, Konan suggested. Instead, we should consider that Gato had a long term objective in mind that first required him to take possession of Wave by forcing the people to abandon it. Once he achieved that, then he would have moved onto the next phase which likely didnt require the continued existence of his shipping company.

Can you all just stop pretending to care? Hisui said bitterly. Youve already stated that great business people act with long term goals in mind. Leveling her cold gaze on Karin, she asked, So what is the goal you are truly aiming for with tonights spectacle?

I wish to purchase the Gato Shipping company and with it the port that was built in Wave, Karin deadpanned causing several of the elders including Hisuis jaw to drop with her honesty.

Sold, Toma said sticking his hand out to Karin.

Father!!!

The old man smiled before addressing his daughter while shaking Karins hand, Hisui if she is willing to do all this simply to get her hands on a port that is falling into disrepair then I for one am curious to see what she does with it.

But, shes just some money hungry shark just like Gato, his daughter said angrily.

That could very well be, Toma replied. Yet, he doubted that was the case and explained his reasoning by stating, However, if that is true one only needs to look around to see how differently the two of them pursued the wealth that they desire. I look around and see people of this village smiling and enjoying themselves because they have invested in something grand with this Hotel. They put their faith in the Great Tree Shipping Company when they helped them purchase it during the auction and that faith seems to have been rewarded.

But

Hisui, Ive made up my mind, her father said taking a stern tone. I am curious about one thing though.

What is that? Karin asked feeling exhilarated that she could now move onto the next phase of her plan.

What exactly is it that you are working towards? I doubt it is simply wealth that you are after, since you would likely wish to see if this hotel starts returning on your investment before moving onto the next project. However, if this is just part of some longer plan that would fit the pattern.

Karin gave the Daimyo a knowing smile before answering, I guess you could say my goal is to help bring the world a little closer through commerce and opportunities brought about through trade.

And you need a port to do that? Hisui said obviously not pleased by her fathers decision.

At this point I do, Karin said with a nod. Thanks to the trade lines weve opened up Suna, Konoha, and Kumo are closer than theyve ever been before. They are sharing ideas and forming bonds due in part to the materials the company my employer owns provides. Recently Suna has made improvements to the prosthetics that they originally developed due in part to the Chakra infused wood the Leaf Village allows us to ship to Sand. The improvements were due not just because they now had more material to work with, but in part thanks to the passage of ideas that were opened up when after Pains Invasion injured people from Konoha were fitted with them. The medics of Konoha noted some improvements that could be made and were freely shared with Suna. We might have played a small part in it, but I would like to get that ball rolling with Kirigakure and the Land of Water.

Hisui scoffed while stating, Yes, I can see that is why you would go through so much trouble to get your hands on that port. Not to mention despite the supposed close ties between those three villages, only one of the Kage decided to grace us with their presence.

Karin ignored the sarcasm as she replied, Well in regards to the port, as I stated before if there wasnt a profit to be had I couldnt in good faith pursue it. Im responsible for all my employees and have to weigh their interests with the companys. In this case, there is profit to be had as I think you would find that the Land of Water faces a similar situation as Wave did under Gato.

Is that true? Tazuna asked.

It isnt as bad as it was in Wave, but the companies that usually trade with Water Country seem to be colluding together to keep prices well above market value. Furthermore, items they ship back to the mainland are also likely much higher than they need to be, Karin answered. With the port I can enter into that market, and begin underselling my competition forcing them to lower their prices as well. Plus as more people are willing to deal with us, then we will be able to provide goods from Water Country at cheaper prices as well and likely increase demand for them which should hopefully spur on Waters economy.

I dont understand though why you wanted this port in particular, Tazuna asked.

Well, my competitors already have ports along the coastline making entering into those markets rather difficult, Karin said with a shrug. Also, the high prices are not entirely my competitors fault since taxes from the various Daimyo are rather steep on goods imported from the Land of Water.

So opening up shop here helps you skirt those taxes, Toma said amused. What makes you so sure I will not raise them on you?

I think you, having seen the results of the high tariffs that Gato charged are more aware than just about anyone that too much tax on producers lowers what can and is produced. If there is no profit to be had then there is very little reason to work for it, Karin said. Plus, you are wise enough to know that selling greater quantities at lower tax rates can offshoot selling a few items at a much higher one.

Now you are just buttering me up to get what you want, the Daimyo said amused.

Is it working? Karin asked unabashedly.

Oh absolutely, the man said happily. There is one demand that I insist on making.

What would that be?

You must change the name of Gatos Shipping Company if you do not intend to use the Great Tree Shipping Company name for what would essentially be a new division, he answered quickly.

I already picked out the new name, Karin said sending a look towards Naruto. I intend to call it the Uzumaki Nautical Company.

Any particular reason, Tazuna asked with a wide grin.

I wanted to name it that for much the same reason your bridge bears his first name, Karin said tearing her eyes from her lover. Hes given me a home and a family at least in a clan sense. Plus, I figure that by tying it ever so slightly to his name, it will help calm the fears that another Gato is opening up shop in Wave.

Hisui didnt look convinced but before she could comment someone announced, to the entire room Allow me to introduce Lord Kazekage and his companion the Lady Sari.

The green-eyed daughter of Waves Daimyos mouth dropped as the Kazekage entered dressed in his official robe with his girlfriend on his arm. Tsunade smiled noticing the womans surprise and commenting on what Hisui had said earlier explained, Lord Gaara was delayed in arriving due to needing to deal with some bandits that were foolish enough to attack a town he passed through. The Raikage also had intended to come, but was forced to decline as his brother seems to have gone missing again.

Oh dear, Mito said, Dont tell me he was abducted.

No, apparently he does this from time to time, Tsunade answered. He isnt sure what set Bees wanderlust off this time, but wants to be on hand when Yugito finds him and drags him back. I get the feeling he wants to be the first to welcome him back.

Karin smirked while stating, Something tells me that is a reunion that is going to be rather loud and violent.

I can only imagine, Tsunade replied giving the kunoichi an amused smirk before taking a sip of her drink pleased that it appeared her lovers ambition was progressing smoothly.

*****

Hey look Ayame they have Ramen, Naruto said excitedly looking over the menu he had been given after being moved to a large dining room. He had nearly decided to attend the feast being held outside for the younger townspeople, or those that hadnt invested in the Hotel, since he had felt the food would better suit his tastes. Yet, Ayame had quickly put an end to such plans informing him that he had to eat with the other VIP guests as he and the original members of Team Seven were being treated as guests of honor. Therefore, finding his favorite dish on the menu helped ease his fears that he wouldnt find anything he could enjoy. His lovers and mother had tried and for the most part succeeded in getting him to expand his pallet, but at the end of the day ramen still reigned supreme as his favored meal.

I should hope so, Tsunami said from behind him, It wouldnt do for us to invite our guest of honor to a party, but leave his favorite meal off the menu.

Naruto smiled at her before replying, I guess that makes sense, but considering how fancy some of the food has been tonight I imagined the chef might feel ramen would be too low class.

Well if you enjoy it perhaps I can arrange a meeting with her, Tsunami said preparing to greet some more guests at a separate table, Shes actually a shinobi just like you. She says she is a cooking-nin and believes so long as the meal is enjoyed there is no such thing as low or high class food. She actually can be quite philosophical about it. But considering it is her entire profession to provide good meals for people, I suppose that should be the case. Now if youll excuse me I should greet some of the other guests.

It is good to see that you havent changed Naruto, Shion said sitting across from him next to Toki. Also sitting at the table was Ayame to his right and Sakura by his left who was sitting next to Kakashi. Sitting next to Ayame were Gaara and Sari who rounded out the people sitting with them. Karin, Mito, Konan, and Tsunade were currently sitting at the same table as the Daimyo and his daughter. Focusing on the priestess she added, I recall how content you seemed even when just eating those cups of ramen. Its nice to see that the simple things remain so pleasant for you. Others in your position might have become rather snobbish.

Naruto arched an eyebrow, What do you mean? Im still just a genin.

Who has been revealed to be the son of the Fourth Hokage, Kakashi chimed in. Not to mention who has won battles that even jounin could only dream about having attached to their records.

Not to mention have an amazing and quite understanding lover, especially if shes willing to let you sample someone elses ramen Sakura said causing both Shion and Toki to blush at the seductive tone the pink haired girl had used.

Naruto also blushed as he understood Sakuras innuendo which was followed by her hand cupping his groin under the table. It was joined by a second as Ayame said, Well, thats one way to keep him from ever straying without my knowledge.

The two hands began massaging his dick under the table almost causing Naruto to gasp with relief when they withdrew as a voice asked from behind him, Have you all made your selections?

Naruto looked back to see Kin, taking everyone elses order and who having saved him for last asked, What about you sir?

Ill have the Beef Ramen please, Naruto said calmly.

An excellent choice, Kin said pleasantly, Do you want it with lots of noodles or do you prefer it to be extra on the juice?

Um

You look like the type of guy that likes it juicy so that you can slurp it down.

Okay I guess Naruto said.

Oh he certainly is, Ayame said amused, He looks so cute after finishing and his chin is covered in my special broth.

I can only imagine, Kin said enjoying their teasing of Naruto. Ill go place your orders and be sure to comeback to see if he enjoys our own special broth. It was made just for him.

Kin walked away prompting Kakashi to remark, You sure are a lucky man Naruto.

Naruto couldnt help but nod as with the difficult decision of what to eat having been made the two hands returned to their teasing of his cock under the table. By the time the food came, Naruto was hard as steel so applied his energies to eating to take his mind off of his arousal. Quickly plowing through the delicious ramen, he set his bowl down as Kins voice returned to say, Its just like you said. You sure do enjoy your meals.

Deciding to join in Naruto commented, Well when something delicious is spread out before me. I cant help but want to enjoy it.

Kakashi smirked beneath his mask somehow managing to clear his plate without anyone seeing him remove it. Hearing some music playing he said, Well thats my cue to leave. Dont do anything I wouldnt do?

Coming from a man that reads dirty books in public that probably isnt excluding much, Kakashi-sensei, Sakura teased.

Then Im sure youll take full advantage Sakura, Kakashi replied causing the kunoichi to blush.

Sari growing a little tired of watching Naruto and his lovers flirt and noticing other couples moving to a small dance floor for those wishing to dance to the soft music said, Lets dance Gaara.

Gaara having not really tried it before said, I do not think I would be a good dance partner.

He could see his girlfriend was disappointed by his statement but before he could say anything else Naruto sensing his uncomfortableness likely stemmed from having an audience said, Hey man, you dont need to worry about anyone else but the girl at your side. If shes willing to put up with the stepped on toes, then you should take her out on the dance floor and show her off. Let me show you what I mean.

He turned to Ayame but she quickly said, Why dont you dance with Sakura? She looks like she wants to be shown off a little.

Sakura gave her a happy smile before stating, Lets go Naruto. She pulled Naruto away before he could respond which Sari decided was also a perfect way to get what she wanted as well following suit and not giving Gaara a choice.

Ayame watched the two Daimyo closely as they talked politely, but whose eyes kept drifting towards the dance floor to follow the man that had saved them both. Finally noticing how close Sakura and Naruto seemed to be, Shion had to ask, Excuse me Ayame, but how can you be so cool about how close they are? Arent you worried that perhaps

Shell seduce him away from me. Ayame finished for the priestess.

Yes, the lavender eyed woman replied, When he saved me it was quite apparent that he harbored some feelings for her. There did appear to be a tension between them, but that seems to be gone now.

If Im not mistaken, didnt you ask him to sleep with you to pass your powers along, the Ramen Waitress said with a smile that grew as Toki nearly spit out her drink.

Finding it difficult to swallow, the black-haired Daimyo managed before gasping out, You did?!

I was just caught up in the moment of facing a demon and surviving, Shion said while adding more softly, I didnt expect he would follow through.

Ayame could hear the disappointment that he hadnt in her voice so asked, Well still, shouldnt I be worried that perhaps your concern is a ruse to gain some insight into seducing him into your bed.

No I just Shion sputtered several denials that all trailed off before final settling on, I just wonder how you seem so calm when he was obviously being hit on earlier or even now as Sakura does very little to hide her own desires for him.

I guess there is just very little to be jealous of when hes already sleeping with her, the brown-haired kunoichi in training said. She looked over to the dance floor trying hard not to laugh at the two shocked faces the women sitting opposite her wore. She found it a little harder as she noticed Gaara dancing a little woodenly with his girlfriend.

What! Toki said louder than she intended so lowering her voice to a whisper repeated, What. You cant be serious.

Ayame shrugged as she replied, Im completely serious. She slept with him today and the three of us are sharing a room.

Bbut why I mean he introduced you as his girlfriend, Toki said still in shock.

Shion though didnt seem so much surprised as contemplative so remained silent while Ayame explained, Well that just simplifies things for most people. Im sure learning that Naruto has more than one lover might cause you to look at him differently. Its pretty much why we keep a low profile as it might cause people to change their opinions of him and his achievements over something so silly.

I it isnt silly, Toki said, Love isnt something that should be dismissed. If you love him then you should want him only for yourself and the same should hold true for him.

Ayame frowned fearing Toki could be a problem but looking at Shion could see the woman was thinking about what the possibilities of learning the truth about Naruto and his many relationships held, particularly for her so the brown-haired woman said, You understand, dont you?

Shion nodded slightly before stating, It is an arrangement that allows both of you to be happy.

Shion, you cant be serious, Toki said a little taken aback.

Why not? The priestess asked. I would be lying if I didnt say Im still interested in him. He taught me the value of never giving up and so much more. I wouldnt be averse to sharing him if it means I can enjoy being by his side.

Ayame smiled at Shion before standing to say, Well if you truly feel that way why not join us tonight?

I dont know, the Priestess said suddenly the pressure of actually being able to get what she desire causing her to have second thoughts.

Ayame calmed the woman stating, You dont have to if you are unsure. It can be a truly life altering decision. I just ask that you keep this a secret. Much as you noted earlier Shion despite all he has gained he remains the same humble and cheerful man I believe you both feel something for. Im offering you a chance to follow your hearts desire, but such information could be used against him.

I wont tell anyone even if I dont come, Shion said sincerely, although Ayame felt the priestess joining Narutos harem was a forgone conclusion.

Toki nodded a moment later as she stated, I shall keep his secret as well. I owe him everything even though I do not believe I could be happy in such an arrangement.

Ayame nodded in understanding so gave the women the room number she shared with Naruto and Sakura. Walking towards them, she whispered into Sakuras ear before grabbing Narutos hand and leading him out of the room. Sakura sent a knowing look to the two women before following in their wake the swish in her hips leaving little doubt as to what the three were going to be up to in the minds of the Priestess and Daimyo watching.

*****

The first night of the Grand Opening of Whirling Tides Manor closed a few hours after Ayame had dropped the bombshell about her relationship. Shion had remained at the table as more and more people adjourned for the evening after dinner. The Priestess of Demon Country looked towards where she had last seen Toki after the woman had moved on, likely still as shocked as her upon learning that Naruto was in a relationship with both Sakura and Ayame. But then she thought back to the too friendly waitress that seemed to have been in on the joke shared between Ayame and Sakura moments earlier. She then briefly wondered if Naruto was also tied to her in some way and just like that the possibilities for such connections seemed endless. After all, if he was seeing two women, why not three, or why even stop there. The Red-head named Karin Uzumaki that she had seen him talking to, and according to some of the villagers attending the celebration had purchased the hotel at his bequest, suddenly became a real possibility to also be one of his lovers.

Suddenly seeing a room that had been filled with women attached to the blond man in a way she had desired only one thought sprang to her mind. Why not her? With that thought she suddenly wondered why she was sitting in the dining room watching a much more relaxed Kazekage still slow dancing with his girlfriend when she could be taking her long desired place at Narutos side and in his bed. Standing, she quickly headed to the room she had been instructed towards. She knocked softly and hesitantly at first, but upon receiving no answer her next few knocks were more insistent and needy.

A moment later the door opened to reveal Ayame her long hair down from the bun it had been in and dressed only in a light bathrobe. Smiling at the Priestess she said, Welcome Shion, Im glad you decided to join us.

Ayame stepped to the side allowing her entry into the room. Shion looked around not finding the man that brought her there prompting Ayame to say, Hes out back in the hotspring.

Shion followed behind the woman and felt her heart beating louder and louder as she neared the back door that led out onto the private bath attached to the room. Ayame slid it open causing the Priestess to gasp as she saw Naruto sitting in the bath surrounded by several of the nude beauties she had figured might be sharing the blond man, but also a few that she hadnt even guessed at. Starting from the farthest to his right she saw the waitress that had taken their order at dinner, then Sakura who was sitting next to him kissing his shoulder as her hand moved beneath the water obviously stroking his cock. Behind Naruto sat the Hokage, whose heavy breasts were resting on his head as she refilled the saucer that he was enjoying some sake with. Running her hand over his chest as they enjoyed a kiss and sitting to his left was the blue haired woman that Shion had learned ruled the Land of Rain, Konan. To the left of her sat the woman running the Whirling Tide Manor, Tsunami while next to her was the another waitress that she had seen, but not interacted with who had two purple marks on her cheeks.

A flash appeared behind her causing her to turn and she was shocked as a nude Karin appeared on a symbol she hadnt noticed on the floor. It faded a moment later letting her know that she hadnt been completely oblivious to its presence. Karin smiled at her and stopped next to her before entering the outdoor hot spring. She shook her head at the sight of the blond and blue-haired woman kissing before asking Ayame, Is he even aware that he has a guest?

Not yet, the brown haired waitress replied, Truthfully I was giving her a moment to compose herself before announcing her. Im sure she doesnt want to be introduced with her jaw on the floor.

Shion snapped her mouth closed causing both women to giggle with Karin saying, Its a lot to take in Im sure. Take as long as you need.

However, Naruto feeling Karins presence broke the kiss to welcome her as well as congratulate her on a successful night. It then became his turn for his mouth to drop in surprise as he spotted Shion standing between the nude red-head and all but nude Ayame. Shion Naruto said surprised, Im Im not sureIm a little surprised you came.

Shion giggled lightly finding Narutos reaction to her presence amusing especially as he was at the center of a bevy of gorgeous women. It helped her ease the tension that she had been feeling so she asked, Didnt Ayame tell you that she told Toki and I your secret. Although, she didnt exactly give us the full scope of it either.

Naruto nodded answering, She did, but I didnt think you would come here tonight. I had planned to talk to the two of you tomorrow.

Just talk, Shion asked.

Naruto gave her a grin that helped reignite the feelings she had harbored for him years ago from after he had helped her fulfil her destiny. Some of the bravado she recalled bled into his voice as he responded, It would have been up to you if that is all that happened. Shion swallowed heavily as he asked, Are you here to talk now or is there something more that you want from me?

IIm not

Naruto understood that a more intimate setting would be appropriate so said, Ayame would you mind taking Shion to the bedroom so just her and I can talk? Ill be there shortly.

Ayame nodded guiding the Priestess across the large common area that comprised the suite Naruto had been given. Behind her, Shion could her Karin whine, Ah, I just got here and youre leaving us already.

She heard Naruto chuckle as he replied, Dont worry. Ill leave you something to play with.

A moment later Shion heard the poof that signified he had created clones. Shion didnt look back but before reaching the entrance to the bedroom she heard the sounds of moans drifting towards her almost like a sirens call. Resisting the urge to look back, she was glad the room was sound proofed as once Ayame closed the door after she stepped in the building moans cut off. Shion looked around the room and wasnt sure what she should do. She didnt want to sit on the large bed as she was afraid that it would be too forward or presumptuous.

Her gaze moved to a fireplace that sat opposite the foot of the bed and noticing it was already lit wondered if although she didnt doubt Naruto had been surprised by her appearance that night that perhaps it has been decidedly less of one for the women he had taken as lovers. Lovers that she heard again moaning contently as the bedroom door opened and closed quickly behind her. She turned towards the man that had entered, and admitted that she was disappointed that he had covered himself with a robe.

The two of them just stared at each other for several moments not exactly sure where to begin, but Naruto started first stating, Im sure you have some questions you would like to ask.

Thats an understatement, Shion said causing both of them to laugh.

Naruto moved to the foot of the bed while Shion remained near the fire looking at him she asked, I guess what I really want to know is why you would turn down my offer if you would want to seduce me years later?

I suppose I could give you a multitude of reasons, Naruto admitted.

You hadnt taken multiple lovers at that point, Shion said her tone sounding slightly hopeful.

No I had, although not nearly as many as I currently have, Naruto said noting the slight frown that appeared. A part of the reason had to do with your wanting me to father you a child. I suppose before we move any further it is important for you to understand that having children just isnt something that Im interested in.

Why, Shion asked a little surprised, I think you would be a great father.

I like to think so too, Naruto said with a smile, But I want to be a better lover and head of my family. If I were to have a child I would want to be there fully for them, but a present the only ones I could publicly acknowledge would be any Ayame had. That isnt fair to a child that couldnt know me as its father.

Is that the only reason?

No, you just caught a glimpse of how I spend my nights. Thats not exactly the type of environment conductive to raising a child, and truthfully I dont want the responsibility. It hectic enough worrying about the welfare of my lovers without getting children mixed into it, Naruto said taking a seat at the edge of the bed. There are a few other reasons, but I think it is best to give you my more honest and selfish reasons first.

Why, what else could possibly influence such a decision? Shion asked curious.

You said that you needed to pass along your abilities in case Moryou ever returned, Naruto said resting his ankle over his knee. Shion was tempted to look to see if a certain part of his anatomy had been exposed, but kept her eyes locked with his as she nodded. What if you didnt need to, but would remain as youthful as you are now. Would you still want a child?

I I dont know, Shion admitted, Much like everything in my life it was just something that I knew would one day be required of me. I simply told you about it since I thought it would be an easy way to suggest us being together. I guess though you dont desire me.

Nothing could be further from the truth, Naruto stated patting next to him on the bed. He waited for Shion to join him before adding, You are beautiful and there were far more reasons for me to take you up on your offer then not. For one, although I would later learn my suspicions were right I had already suspected that I wouldnt be able to get you pregnant. One of my lovers in exchange for making me and those bound to me effectively immortal made it so that I couldnt get them pregnant. Shes thinking extremely long term, but basically she knows that it could create quite a few problems.

Then why wouldnt you take me up on my offer?

Well, since you had stated right out the gate that you desired a child from our union, sleeping with you under such pretenses might have soured our relationship especially later, Naruto said turning her face towards him. Inching his lips closer he continued, I want us to last forever so felt it best to let sometime pass. Not to mention your asking me to be with you could simply have been an emotional high that was tied to our adventure together.

Tthat desire hasnt faded, Shion said finding her heart beating wildly again as their lips grew closer together.

Are you sure, Naruto asked stopping with only a sliver of light separating his lips from hers. Do you truly wish to become one of my lovers?

Shion answered him by closing the small distance between them and pressed her lips against his. The kiss remained chaste at first, but soon Shion found Naruto taking control and pulling her tighter against him. His tongue pressed against her lips which she parted and followed his lead as it entered her mouth to dance with hers.

As his kiss grew more passionate he lifted her leg closest to him pulling it over his own in order to spread her thighs apart. Having to dig through the many layers of the official robe that she had worn for the evening he eventually exposed the white cloth of her panties. He gently swiped his finger over her panty covered slit causing Shion to moan into his mouth. He repeated the move several time pulling his hand away after each one enjoying the feeling of how her panties grew damper each time.

Mmore, she pleaded breaking the kiss.

Lets get you out of these robes, Naruto answered standing and pulling Shion to her feet. He positioned her before the fire and removed the long sleeved white outer robe first. She giggled softly as he fumbled with the knot of the inner red robe before finally overcoming the challenge. He leaned in kissing her neck as he pushed that robe away from her body as well. Stepping back, he admired the Priestess and the outline of her body that he could make out as the while silk teddy she wore almost appeared to glow as a result of the fire behind her. You are absolutely stunning, Shion.

Shion blushed but replied, Not when compared to some of those women out there.

Naruto cupped her face as he stepped closer stating, One doesnt stand around comparing the beauty of stars do they? They simply bask in the light they give off. Im fortunate that I have gathered many such heavenly beauties to me, and right now the one standing before me is you.

Naruto kissed her again causing Shion to close her eyes to delight in the feeling of their tongues rolling around each other. She moaned as Narutos hand began to fondle one of her breasts through her white babydoll. She ended up breaking the kiss when after several minutes of his rolling her tit around he tweaked and pulled on her nipple. A nipple he exposed by pushing the strap of her nightgown off her shoulder exposing her breast which he quickly lowered his mouth to and sucked on.

Shion gasped feeling his tongue trace around her larger areola which grew into a moan as Naruto buried the hand not squeezing the tit he was sucking on inside the priestesss now drenched panties. He found a short trimmed patch of hair above her pussy which he ran his fingers through before sliding two of them inside her. Working them quickly, Shion lost all strength in her legs and had to grip his shoulders to remain up right.

Youre so wet, Shion, Naruto said working his fingers even harder causing the wet sounds her pussy was making to grow louder, Youre quite the slutty little priestess, arent you?

Nno Im not, Shion said her grip on Naruto growing stronger as a climax built up inside her.

Naruto smirked as he said, I dont know this wetness would seem to suggest otherwise. So tell me, how often did you play with yourself while dreaming of passing your abilities on?

I I didnt Shion said but changed her tune as Naruto began flicking her clit. Gasping she said, At. At least once a dayif my duties permitted it

And who was it you were dreaming of?

Shion looked him directly in his eyes and stated in a voice filled with need, You!!! Its always been you!

Naruto grinned causing her to whimper as he withdrew his finger and undoing his rob said, Then its time to stop dreaming. Grab the mantle above the fireplace.

Shion quickly did as she was told and looked back at Naruto as he discarded his robe. Her eyes locked onto the pillar of flesh that he slowly fisted while coming up behind her. Hooking his thumbs into the straps of her panties he pulled them down her shapely legs until gravity did the rest. He caused her to moan softly as he rubbed the tip of his dick against her wet cunt before gripping her hips and pushing in slowly.

The Priestess moaned as Naruto slowly spread her open but then he stopped upon reaching the barrier of her hymen. Placing pressure against it, he reached down and began to rub her pussy causing her to moan out as the feeling that had been building before quickly returned. When it grew to feel like it couldnt be contained any further, Naruto pressed on her clit causing her to climax while also pushing pass her barrier. Shion felt her maidenhood tear, but the flash of pain was swallowed by her first climax as one of Narutos lovers.

The blond man began to move even as her pussy continued to flutter around the piston which was stroking within her. Shion gripped the mantle of the fireplace harder and threw her head back as Naruto reached up under her lingerie to fondle her breasts. She also became a more active participant in their lovemaking as she began to throw herself back against him. Naruto leaned forward nibbling on the top of her ear before bring his lips next to it stating, Thats it Shion, let me see that slutty side of you. A side that will be only mine to enjoy.

Shion groaned as much from Narutos words as from the feeling of a new buildup of sexual energy that when released would dwarf her previous one. A feeling which began to grow quicker as Naruto began thrusting more violently into her. Shion stared into the fire, the heat she was feeling from it failing to compare to the burning need for release growing inside her. Shion turned her head towards Naruto, and stuck out her tongue which he quickly sucked on. When he pulled back she stated, Yyour dick Its better than I ever dreamed Im I Im CCCCUUUMMMMIIIIINNNNGGGGGG!!!

Naruto groaned as her pussy began to coil around him trying to squeeze the cum from him. He obliged her pushing into her until nestled against the entrance of her womb and flooding it with his seed which bound her to him. Not that Shion needed the jutsu as she would gladly give herself to Naruto again and again without it. The strength left her arms, causing her to let go of the mantle that she had been holding onto. Naruto caught her arms turning her away from the fire, and then holding them in much the same way she had been gripping the mantle began to fuck her again. Shions lavender eyes grew wide as Naruto began stirring up the seed he had just deposited as he intended to show her that she had made the correct choice in giving herself to him.

*****

Toki tossed and turned as she tried to forget what she had learned that evening. But the idea wouldnt banish itself from her mind as she had a wakening dream of Naruto laying on the bed while being pleasured by Sakura and Ayame in a room very much like the one that she had been given. She imagined their giggles and content sucking sounds bouncing off the walls while they serviced his dick with their mouths as she was forced to watch seemingly glued to the floor by her own pride which kept her from joining in. The fantasy grew more torturous as a person walked by her shedding the robes that she had been wearing that evening, before joining the three sweaty and happy looking people on the bed.

Sakura and Ayame having made Naruto rock hard parted as Shion climbed atop of Naruto with her butt facing towards him so that she could look at Toki as she stood at the foot of the bed. The Priestess lowered herself down on his cock which Sakura made sure entered its mark and moaned out once fully impaled on his length. She then began fondling her breasts as she began riding his dick moaning loudly as she stared up at the ceiling. Tokis view of where the two were connected disappeared as Ayame leaned forward to begin sucking on Narutos balls.

Sakura mounted his face as she reached around and joined her hands with Shions in enjoying the Priestesss breasts. The dream Toki mirrored the actions of the real one as she began fondling her pussy and breast through her clothes as the need for some relief from the sights assaulting her imagination became too great. Moaning out loud, she began to truly get into her act of self-pleasure, but stopped suddenly as she heard herself say, Let me join too. But couldnt be sure if it was the dream Toki or not as she wondered whether or not in the morning she might learn her vision of Shion joining Naruto and his lovers wasnt so much a lust induced dream, but a reality.

Next Chapter: Grand Opening: Part II

Authors Note: Well as always let me thank those who have taken the time to review. They really are the best reward for all the work that goes into this story. I figure that for now Ill continue working on Eroninja while also doing the Limelight Birthday Bash chapter. Im not sure if Grand Opening will be a two part arc or three at this time as the amount of stuff I want to get through before the Expanding Territory arc keeps growing. I should hopefully have the Limelight done before I go into the next arc as well. Then Ill probably do a chapter of The Pride.

Again thank you for reading and reviewing. Until next time take care, Sincerely The Lemon Sage.
