****************
At midnight, Colt quietly arrived at Kurenai's house using the [Flying Thunder God Technique].
"Why are you only here now?" Kurenai glanced at Colt with mock anger, then took out the shochu she had prepared earlier.
Just like that, she had forgotten about her anger, leaving Colt speechless.
"Come on, have a drink with me. Anko has been very busy recently, and no one has been drinking with me."
Eager to drink with him, Kurenai took a swig directly from the bottle.
Colt felt a bit helpless; Kurenai was like a different person when it came to drinking.
*Sigh*
"I told Hinata and Ino about us," Colt said.
"Pfft!" Kurenai spat out her drink, looking at Colt in disbelief.
"Are you crazy?"
She couldn't believe Colt had revealed it so quickly.
Didn't they agree to announce it when he became an adult?
No wonder Hinata had been looking at her strangely these past few days, no longer calling her "Teacher Kurenai" but "Sister Kurenai" directly.
She had guessed it might be possible but deluded herself into thinking that Hinata was just feeling closer to her.
Facing Kurenai's resentful gaze, Colt shrugged helplessly.
"I don't think it's fair to you, and we don't need to be so secretive anyway."
Although he couldn't keep everything perfectly balanced, he tried his best to be fair to everyone.
Kurenai was stunned, not expecting Colt to think like this.
For a moment, her eyes grew a little misty.
"No, don't talk about that. Come, let's drink," she said, discreetly wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Kurenai began to exchange cups with Colt.
The two, who were originally sitting opposite each other, moved closer until they were side by side, and then...
"I learned part of the [Expansion Jutsu]," Colt said quietly.
Chōji Akimichi had been wounded several times in the battle against the Cloud Village, and Colt who healed him every time, had acquired his favorite technique.
"Really?" Kurenai's red eyes lit up. Did that mean...
"That's right," Colt said with a smile.
"I can finally make myself… smaller."
Kurenai's face flushed.
It had been quite challenging before.
The two looked at each other and tacitly put down their wine glasses...

Meanwhile, in a hidden cave, Obito sat silently on a stone as Black Zetsu's body suddenly appeared.
"What did you find?" Obito asked.
Zetsu shook his head.
"Kamiyo Colt's information is very clean. I checked his father and mother's records, but I didn't find any connection between him and the Uchiha clan."
After their last encounter with Colt, Obito and Zetsu had raised his threat level significantly.
To better target Colt, Zetsu personally came to Konoha to gather information.
But after this investigation, he became even more puzzled.
The source of Colt's Senju bloodline was clear; Kamiyo Mieko was a Senju descendant, explaining Colt's Wood Style awakening. But this Sharingan...
The information about Kamiyo Shin was absolute, with no apparent connection to the Uchiha.
"There's more bad news," Zetsu continued, looking at Obito. "Kamiyo Colt seems to have awakened the Uzumaki clan's [Mind's Eye of the Kagura]. I can't get close to him at all."
Obito was stunned. How did this kid awaken so many Bloodline Limits?
'Kamiyo Colt, who the hell is your father? Is he the sage of six paths?'
For a moment, he felt that Colt was like an impenetrable fortress.
Obito was certain that once they started the Tailed Beast capture plan, Colt would be an insurmountable obstacle.
"Let's leave it to Nagato to deal with him," Obito decided after much deliberation.
Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, was the best candidate to restrain Colt. This way, Obito could also reap the benefits if a conflict arose between the two.
Obito's ambition was never for peace, nor did he truly want to resurrect Madara Uchiha.
He just wanted to take the Rinnegan for himself and become the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki. Finally, he would use the Infinite Tsukuyomi with his own hands to create a perfect world he could share with Rin.

The next morning, Colt woke up contented, but Kurenai was still deep in sleep, exhausted from their night together.
They had stayed up quite late, and Kurenai, not being as physically robust as him, would likely sleep until noon.
Colt was in no hurry.
He walked slowly to the yard to start his morning exercises. Although these few repetitions wouldn't increase his strength significantly, there was always a refreshing feeling after a set of taijutsu training.
"Hah!" Retracting his fists and standing, Colt slowly exhaled, clearing his mind.
He began to think about something Kurenai had told him the night before.
In addition to the eighth class, Kurenai had another disciple: Yakumo Kurama.
The Kurama clan was once one of Konoha's wealthy families.
However, their bloodline limit was difficult to awaken, and the clan had gradually declined as fewer ninjas with the ability appeared. Until Yakumo Kurama came along.
This bloodline limit was terrifying, known as the ability to manipulate the five senses. It could trap people in illusions so real that those affected would suffer actual harm.
The emergence of such a genius should have been celebrated. However, Yakumo had a weak constitution since childhood and couldn't bear much training.
The Third Hokage, fond of Yakumo's talent, had sent Kurenai to be her Genjutsu teacher. But Kurenai discovered that Yakumo lacked the physical capacity to become a ninja and tried to persuade her to give up this path.
Combined with her parents' discouragement, Yakumo developed resentment, giving birth to a terrible monster in her heart that set her parents on fire. The incident was so horrifying that Yakumo's memory was sealed, leaving her to believe the village had assassinated her parents.
Since then, she had been isolated in the Satomi Hill Villa.
Kurenai, aware of Colt's medical abilities and great strength, wanted to see if he had a solution.
After learning about the situation, Colt became interested in the Kurama clan's abilities.
The power to manipulate the five senses and even affect reality was intriguing.
He intended to study it.
If it was truly as remarkable as described, he could potentially exchange it through the [Healer's Benevolence System] to enrich his offensive capabilities.
