Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Come On, Yugito Nii, Say "Meow"!
Hearing Shishou's teasing words, Yugito Nii struggled to lift her hand, trying to strike Shishou. However, in her weakened state, her movements resembled a kitten's feeble swipes.
"I'll kill you!"
Never before had she been defeated so thoroughly. The fact that she couldn't last even one round against him was a blow to her pride. As a Jinchūriki, she had always been powerful, and this humiliation was unbearable.
Even a powerful Jinchūriki like Yugito can't last long against him? Pakura mused, watching the quick defeat of Yugito in her Tailed Beast form. She already knew Shishou was strong but didn't realize he was this powerful. Every time she went on a mission with him, she had to reassess her understanding of his strength.
"Let me give you some advice. Sometimes confidence turns into arrogance. For a ninja, the price of arrogance is death and humiliation."
Shishou pinched Yugito's delicate face. Then, with a wicked grin, he took out a rope.
"What are you doing? Don't come any closer..."
"I will kill you, I will definitely kill you!"
"Ah, you pervert..."
Tsk tsk, what a pervert! Pakura's face reddened as she glanced at Shishou tying up Yugito, feeling a mix of embarrassment and disdain.
"A cat should act like a cat."
"Don't you think so, Miss Yugito?"
Shishou crouched down, stroking Yugito's pretty face as she knelt on all fours like a cat.
"I'll kill you!"
Yugito, both ashamed and furious, glared at Shishou with eyes full of hatred, as if she wanted to tear him apart.
"Come on, Miss Yugito, say 'meow!'"
"Say 'meow' and I'll let you go."
Ignoring her anger, Shishou continued to caress her smooth face with a smile.
Snap!
Infuriated, Yugito lunged to bite Shishou's hand, but he evaded her, causing her to bite the air with a sharp click.
"Tsk tsk, a biting kitty needs some training."
Shishou clicked his tongue, raised his right hand, and delivered a crisp slap to her plump backside.
"You..."
Yugito froze, staring at Shishou in disbelief.
Watching Shishou's actions, Pakura instinctively covered her own backside, cursing him in her heart: Pervert!
Then, a flush spread across Yugito's face. Enraged, chakra surged from her body as she transformed into her Tailed Beast form again.
"Huh..."
Seeing the chakra of the Two-Tails surging from Yugito, Shishou's eyes lit up with interest.
He pressed his hand on Yugito, suppressing her Tailed Beast form once more.
"Hngh!"
Enduring the intense pain from within, Yugito broke into a cold sweat, gritting her teeth. Despite the agony, her pride wouldn't let her scream in front of her enemy.
Admiring her resilience, Shishou's smile widened. The pain from being devoured by the Phosphorus Bad Bugs felt like a thousand ants biting at once. Even the Fourth Mizukage Yagura had fainted from a single attack, yet Yugito remained conscious after two.
Her strong will impressed Shishou.
However, admiration didn't prevent his next actions.
Retracting the Phosphorus Bad Bugs from Yugito's body, Shishou pointed to the unconscious Kumogakure ninjas, smiling at her.
"They're about to wake up."
"Miss Yugito, you wouldn't want them to see you like this, right?"
Yugito's face flushed red with anger. As Kumogakure's Two-Tails Jinchūriki, she was powerful and respected. Her beauty earned her the title of Kumogakure's most beautiful woman. Being seen in such a humiliating position was worse than death.
"What do you want..."
After several minutes of inner struggle, Yugito chose to compromise.
"I've already told you what I want."
Shishou wiped the sweat from her forehead, smiling.
Yugito bit her lip.
"Pervert."
Pakura, unable to bear watching anymore, spat out the word and walked away.
Yugito looked at Pakura gratefully, knowing she was sparing her some dignity. Her face flushed again, and after a few minutes of hesitation, she finally whispered:
"Meow..."
With a bright smile, Shishou patted her head as if she were a pet.
"Good girl!"
...
Leaving the island, Shishou and Pakura returned to the giant turtle's head, preparing to depart.
Suddenly, Shishou turned to the side.
In the distance, two figures, one blue and one red, sped across the sea towards them.
"The Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki are coming."
"You go up in the air first."
Shishou took out the Kusanagi Sword from his storage scroll, looking at Pakura. He wasn't confident he could protect her against the incredibly fast Fourth Raikage A and the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki Killer B.
"I understand."
Pakura drew out a scroll, painting with ink.
A giant hawk emerged from the scroll, carrying Pakura into the sky.
"They can fly? This might be tricky."
"But it looks like they didn't capture Yugito."
Soon, the Fourth Raikage and Killer B arrived near Shishou. Seeing Pakura flying in the sky and no sign of Yugito around Shishou, the Raikage deduced what happened.
"Brother, I'll handle him. You're faster; check on Yugito."
Wearing the Tailed Beast cloak, Killer B eyed Shishou with excitement. He had been bored for too long.
"Be careful."
The Raikage trusted Killer B's abilities, nodded, and rushed towards the island's interior, carrying a person.
"Raikage-sama, c-could you put me down?"
Kumogakure's medical ninja, Shī, was pale as she was carried like a sack of potatoes. Being handled this way was both uncomfortable and embarrassing.
But the Raikage ignored her, a flash of blue light as he dashed towards the island's interior.
Seeing the Raikage heading inside first, Shishou was delighted. Facing both of them at once would be tough.
Dealing with just Killer B would be much easier.
"Today's my lucky day."
