Capítulo 29: 29. Couple?
(Powerstones? Join my Patreon as free member, you would have known why there was delay of this chapter)
"What have you guys been doing? There was too much noise coming from above," Yumi looked at both of the 16-year-olds.
"Hmm, did the silencing seal not work?"
"I was beating him."
Both of them said that simultaneously.
"That sounds interesting," Kakashi mused.
He had just arrived a few minutes ago and had come across this juicy scene.
He wasn't letting this go.
"You guys seem like a couple to me with whatever happened up there," Kakashi played his move.
The silencing seal did work for their conversation, but it wasn't enough for the noise that came from two jounins at full speed phasing through the walls.
"Yeah, we are a couple," Miyuki said nonchalantly and took a seat on the chair.
"Wait, what?" Kakashi dropped the book he was reading.
Unfortunately, it wasn't *Icha Icha.*
It seems Kakashi hadn't come across the masterpiece yet.
"Wait, we are?" Yukio asked while taking his seat.
Miyuki just looked at him.
"Ahem, yeah, we are." 'Duh, obviously, what type of dumb question was that' Yukio rolled his eyes internally.
"Woah," Yumi was also surprised.
"Is it that surprising?" Miyuki asked.
Even if they didn't know about their previous identities, or even before they got their memories, their interactions kind of made this not that surprising.
Or so Miyuki thought.
"Yeah."
"Yes."
Kakashi and Yumi said.
"Well, I'll prepare breakfast, I guess. Ramen it is," Yukio got up from the chair and went to the kitchen to cook.
He was hungry. After a long day with the time travel, the truth he got, the intensive session he had with Miyuki, and then the confession, he was tired.
It was still morning, but Yukio hoped for nightfall so he could sleep.
"What? We just ate it last week!" Yumi protested.
So what if she wanted to kill 50 per cent of the people in the room?
Her appetite came first.
She needed to get stronger to kill them.
Which required a lot of training.
And she needed something to keep her happy.
For that, she needed to eat good food to keep her mood in high spirits.
So, she was obviously going to protest.
"Well, I'll just make a different flavour, it'll taste completely different from the last one," Yukio rolled his eyes.
Kids these days.
Back in his time, he used to get free food wherever he went.
A bit of blackmailing went a long way.
Well, that may or may not cause problems for him currently, due to him being more hated than the future Naruto.
Yukio was more worried that Naruto would be more hated due to his connection to him than because of his jinchūriki status.
People need someone to hate if their family was indirectly slaughtered by a demon sealed in a kid.
But, they'll hate a person more who made them live in fear their whole lives.
So, by that logic, Yukio had done many bad deeds.
Danzo might look like a saint to the people of Konoha.
Anyway, back to the *cooking.*
"What? You always say that when you make ramen!" Yumi was not going to back off that easily.
"And you always say this line when I make ramen," Yukio was stubborn.
"Wait, what?" Yumi paused for a bit.
"It does taste completely different, right?" Yukio asked a follow-up question.
"Yeah, it does, but still, it's still ramen, right?" For some reason, Yumi didn't want to eat ramen.
Even if the ramen may taste like ice cream or something.
Because at the end of the day, she was eating noodles only.
"Well, by that logic, everything is made of carbon. You shouldn't eat anything, as it's technically carbon, right? Just in different forms."
"Uhh... that logic is not applicable in this sense." Yumi wasn't going to be fooled that easily.
"It is. Let me tell you about when to use analogies." With that, Yukio cooked not only the food but also a lesson about when to use analogies.
Yukio was a certified cook, and the world was his kitchen.
Kakashi and Miyuki were watching their interaction.
"Anyway, it's still surprising, but I knew this was going to happen sooner or later," Kakashi said while reading his book.
Miyuki really was finding this too similar to how Kakashi looked in the anime.
"Really? I also thought it would happen like this," Miyuki said.
"Yeah, please don't castrate him," Kakashi joked.
He really couldn't forget that day.
"Hmm, I'll try not to," Miyuki smirked.
That smirk sent a shiver down Kakashi's spine.
'I hope you survive, Yukio. Castration could be done through lightning chakra too. Just messing up the nerves in that area doesn't require much lightning chakra,' Kakashi internally prayed for Yukio's life.
He didn't dare to mention the lightning jutsu's application.
He wasn't really afraid that Miyuki would do that to Yukio.
Okay, maybe he was a bit afraid.
But that wasn't the main reason.
He was afraid that Yukio would hunt him down to the ends of the earth.
He didn't want any of these scenarios.
"Anyway, how is your training going?" Miyuki asked.
"Good. I'm mostly done with fire release. I'll move on to water release next." Kakashi had almost mastered three elements.
That is, he could copy B-rank elemental jutsu from his opponents using these three elements with his sharingan at a glance and learn the jutsu on his own in less than a day.
That's what mastery meant.
"Woah, I'm jealous. I'm still working on the lightning jutsu in the pond," Miyuki sighed.
Last year had been cruel to her.
"Yeah, but your mastery in the lightning release has increased, hasn't it? You're also able to use my Chidori, and your lightning mastery is more or less on my level," Kakashi said.
"I guess I should be considered an elite jounin, right?" Miyuki asked.
"Yeah, but barely one," Kakashi sipped his tea.
The trio had advanced to the top of the jounin pool.
Hiruzen was hesitant about giving Kakashi so many vacations from his ANBU duties, but seeing how Kakashi's strength had increased and that he had already reached elite jounin level, he really couldn't do anything about it.
Giving Kakashi a holiday indirectly meant he'd get a holiday in the future.
So, it was very important.
Yukio served them food using water release.
Yup, most specifically with water tentacles.
"Woah, that's a unique way to serve," Kakashi commented.
"Yeah, first time seeing this," Miyuki added.
Yumi was the only one who wasn't shocked, which the other two noticed.
So, this wasn't the first time Yukio had done this.
"Yeah, I've learned iryoninjutsu recently, as you know, so I've been working on making *Water Whip* my second signature jutsu," Yukio said while taking a seat.
For reference, all the food was served at once with tentacles simultaneously.
"Signature? Interesting," Kakashi already thought of multiple ways this jutsu could evolve to become deadly or suit Yukio's personality.
Miyuki, who was a reincarnator and had seen various kinds of fiction, could also think of multiple ways Yukio could use it.
Heck, she could even think of ways Yukio would definitely use it.
'How kinky' Miyuki smirked.
Kakashi looked at her, confused.
Yukio just shrugged, acting innocent—or so it seemed to Miyuki.
Whether Yukio was really innocent or not was something only he knew.
Anyway, Miyuki didn't have any arrogance about being from a different world with different ideas.
People tend to forget that even in their world, for so many centuries, literature has been a thing. Even before the age of modernization, people wrote different kinds of things, so many different ideas, so many possibilities.
The ninja world was also similar.
So, maybe Kakashi didn't have the creativity of a modern Earth person.
But that didn't mean he was at a disadvantage.
Because that modern Earth person didn't have the lenses through which Kakashi saw things.
It actually depends on the individual.
Studies show that people who have different types of hobbies and thus different experiences tend to learn faster and have more creativity than people who don't.
"It tastes good. You really can cook better than Minato-sensei," Kakashi remarked.
Minato really was a good cook.
Kushina… was also a good cook.
"Really? Minato-sensei used to say that when I was 10 years old," Yukio commented.
"He was definitely lying," Miyuki commented instinctively.
"I wonder about that. I haven't explicitly eaten your cooking from back then, so I can't say. Maybe you were really that good," Kakashi said.
"Maybe," Yukio said.
"Who is Minato-sensei?" Yumi asked.
"A dead man."
"A kind and naïve man."
"A smart man."
