Goddess of Ice; Reborn as Naruto's twin sister

Chapter 213 - Hiruzen's Enlightenment?

After Hisoka finished creating rainbows, Yuna resumed speaking while chuckling a little.

"Hehe, we have known each other for only a few months, and this is already the second time I saw you puking."

Hisoka couldn't help but groan when she heard Yuna's words and remembered the first time Yuna teleported her with the [Flying Thunder God Seal]. That experience was certainly not much more pleasant than the current one.

"Urgh, and whose fault do you think that is?"

"Hahaha, your own?"

Hisoka could only smile wryly after hearing Yuna's words. Although bantering with Yuna eased up her discomfort a little, she was still far from feeling well again.

"Anyway, now that Hisoka got her first kill, I guess we should return to Konoha and report the successful completion of our mission."

Karin, Hisoka, and Sai nodded their heads in agreement, but the moment Yuna started walking, all three of them gave her weird looks.

"Errr, Yuna-sensei, I am pretty sure you are walking in the wrong direction. Konoha should be in the opposite direction of where you are currently walking."

After hearing Hisoka's words, Yuna couldn't help but chuckle a little.

"Hehe, what are you talking about, Hisoka? I am absolutely certain that I am walking in the correct direction. Don't worry about it, and just follow me."

Hisoka gave Yuna a weirded-out look before glancing at Karin and Sai, who also seemed to think that Yuna was walking in the wrong direction.

After exchanging glances for a short moment, all three of them simultaneously shrugged their shoulders and started to follow Yuna.

Yuna was a full-fledged jonin, after all, so she should know what she was doing. Even if she was walking in the wrong direction, the trio was sure that she had a reason for doing so.

Around a week later, Yuna and her genin team stood inside Tsunade's office to deliver the mission report.

While Yuna had a relaxed smile on her face, Karin seemed to be rather haggard with a tired expression on her face, while Sai looked like he was about to fall over at any moment.

Hisoka, on the other hand, looked like she had died a few days ago while her body would start decomposing at any moment. Although her stamina was somewhat similar to Sai's, she had multiple "opportunities" to get used to killing while she was traveling with Yuna. In addition to physical exhaustion, she also received quite a bit of mental damage.

Seeing the condition of Yuna's genin, Tsunade couldn't help but chuckle at their misfortune. Although Hisoka and Sai looked like they were in critical condition, Tsunade could quickly tell that they were only exhausted and would recover without much trouble.

After reading the report about what had happened, Tsunade nodded in approval.

"Seems like you held back considerably this time, Yuna. Only four bandit camps and one missing-nin."

Hearing the word "missing-nin", a shudder went through Hisoka's body. The moment they were about to engage him, Yuna "suddenly got a cramp in her right foot" and had Karin, Hisoka, and Sai fight independently. She was pretty sure that she died multiple times during that fight, but somehow she survived it with only a few minor scratches.

'No matter how I look at it, Yuna must have done something, but every time I glanced at her during the fight, she was rolling around on the ground while acting like she was experiencing the greatest pain of her life. Wait a moment! Did Tsunade just claim that Yuna was holding back? THAT was holding back? What do her mission reports usually look like, and why is Tsunade completely fine with Yuna doing whatever she wants?'

Instead of Yuna answering Tsunade, Hiruzen, who was still lying on a couch inside the Hokage office, started speaking.

"Well, that's only natural. If Yuna didn't know how to pace herself while training others, Naruto and Hinata never would have reached their current level of strength. Well, considering his circumstances, Naruto might, but Hinata wouldn't have been able to endure it."

Tsunade nodded in agreement when she heard Hiruzen's words, but Yuna couldn't help but look at him weirdly.

"Did you go through some weird form of enlightenment, old man?"

Hiruzen looked up from the book he was reading and tilted his head confused, when he heard Yuna's words.

"What do you mean, Yuna…"

After he said those words, his left hand that was supposed to be missing and was completely formed of earth chakra and moved like a normal hand as it delicately flipped to the next page in his book.

"…I'm just lazing around and enjoying my retirement."

Hiruzen's pipe, which was currently held afloat with wind chakra, moved towards Hiruzen's mouth while a minuscule amount of fire chakra reignited it. After taking a drag from his pipe, a satisfied expression appeared on Hiruzen's face, and he returned his attention to his book.

Seeing the obscenely precise chakra control on display, Karin, Hisoka, and even Sai's eyeballs almost popped out of their heads, while Yuna had a wry smile on her face.

'Okay, I have no clue what happened to him, but it seems like he got some weird kind of enlightenment. Is that the true power of porn?'

[Maybe you accidentally granted him your blessing? The blessing of the Goddess of Pervertness.]

'No, I would have noticed that…'

[…]

[Hey Kurama, Yuna, I have heard it multiple times by now, but what is porn? Enlightenment sounds like something good, so can I also get enlightenment by reading porn?]

'[…Well, damn.]'

Although neither Yuna or Kurama said anything else, both of them had the same thoughts simultaneously.

'[It is time for Isobu to leave this body.]'

So far, Yuna and Kurama managed to deflect most of the things that were happening, but it was getting harder and harder to do so, especially if someone like Karin was around for big chunks of the day.

'Well, don't worry about that for now, Isobu. Preparations should be completed to make you your own body by now, so you will be much more independent from now on.'

[Yay, there are a lot of things I want to find out about.]

[Err, what things are we talking about here exactly?]

Hearing Isobu's words, Kurama immediately got a bad feeling, so he couldn't help but ask what Isobu wanted to find out about. Isobu's answer, however, didn't make him happy at all.

[Well, I want to find out about all these weird words I have never heard before. Bondage. Threesome. Masochist. Rapepla…]

[OKAY, THAT'S ENOUGH!!!]

Yuna heard the distress in Kurama's voice when he realized that it was already too late for Isobu, so she did what everyone in her situation would do… She pretended to be deaf.
