Chapter 71

[Next day]

I'm in the palace sitting on my throne and there is this woman feeding me grapes.

'Being an emperor sure is nice.'

There is someone in front of me on his knees who is telling me all I need to know about the situation of this planet. But, it's just one headache after another. It's a miracle that they were able to survive like this for so long.

I summoned a couple of clones to take care of this planet.

<Flying Thunder God Jutsu>

I arrived in Konoha. I had already sent Guy and his students back after our little spar.

I suddenly felt my consciousness being pulled by the old man, but I was able to stop him.

'What do you want, old man?'

'To be able to resist me, you have become really strong.'

'Just tell me what you want already.'

'Take these chains off of me.'

'Why?'

'I need to get my power back and protect the future.'

'You don't have to worry about that. The future is safe in my hands.'

'But I insist. Let me go.'

'Why would you let this opportunity of being able to see your children everyday go?'

'Because it's my duty to protect this planet.'

'That's too bad. It seems like you will retire today.'

'Huh?'

<Adamantine Sealing Chains: Soul Annihilation>

He disappeared forever and since this was a private conversation nobody will know that it was me.

'Brother!'

'Father!' x9

"Naruto, what happened!?" asked Kurama

"It seems like his time has come. He has already lived for a long time after his death and it seems like his soul couldn't take it anymore.'

"This can't be." said Shukaku

"I'm sorry, but it's the truth. I need to go now. If any of you want to talk to me, you know where to find me."

I left the mindscape.

'Stupid old man. If he just shut up and stayed there he would have lived a great life with his children and brother. I couldn't let him go. He would probably try and stop me from doing things in the future and go back into the past to either kill me or talk me out of it.'

I went home. I entered my home and found Hinata, Ino, Tenten, and Sakura in the living room.

"Welcome back, honey."

I walked up to her and gave her a kiss.

"Hello, Ino, Tenten, and massive forehead."

"What did you say!" screamed Sakura

"Nothing."

"Don't be so mean, babe."

"Hahaha, I'm sorry. So Sakura, how is Sasuke doing?"

"Why are you asking me!?"

"You are his number one fangirl, right?"

She started to look pissed off.

"Babe!"

Hinata grabbed my ear.

"I'm sorry, I was just joking."

"Your jokes aren't funny."

"Well, Ino seems to like them."

Ino looked like she was about to die laughing.

"Hahahahaha!"

"Why are you laughing, Ino pig!"

"What did you say, massive forehead!?"

They started screaming at each other.

"Look what you have done now. You knew that this would happen, didn't you!"

"I don't know what you are talking about, babe."

"So how are you and Neji doing?"

Everyone quieted down.

"Huh?" x3

She started blushing.

"How did you know?" asked Tenten

"I found out that Neji can't keep his mouth shut when he is drunk. He took me out for drinks once and ended telling me everything."

"That idiot."

"Why didn't you tell us?" asked Ino

"I wanted to tell you guys, but I forgot."

"Did you know, Hinata?" asked Ino

She nodded.

"Naruto tells me everything."

Sakura looked down.

"Hey Sakura, why don't you date Kiba?"

"Are you crazy! Who would ever date that dog!"

"Hahaha, he isn't that bad. But if you are still after Sasuke, I advise you to stop. He already has a girlfriend."

"What, that can't be true!"

"You shouldn't lie to her like that, babe."

"I'm being serious. He met her on a mission with his brother. She lives at the Uchiha estate now."

Everyone was quiet. I left them alone and went upstairs.

'I was just as shocked as them when he told me that he had a girlfriend. I bet that Sakura will stop being a Shinobi now.'

I arrived in our room and lied down on the bed.

'Maybe I should really find her someone? I'm starting to feel bad for her. But I did just brutally kill an old man so why should I care about her.'

I was tired so I went to sleep even though it was 5 pm.

[Next day]

I woke up with Hinata hugging me.

'She looks so cute!'

She started waking up. I gave her a morning kiss.

"Good morning, babe."

"Good morning."

She started stretching.

"Why did you sleep so early yesterday? Were you tired? You should stop overworking yourself."

"It's nothing. I just felt like sleeping."

"Babe, can you take me shopping today?"

"Don't you have enough clothes?"

"But there is a new edition."

"Just because there is a new edition, you have to buy it?"

"Yes!"

"Sigh, sure."

"Thank you so much."

She jumped on me and started hugging and kissing me. I grabbed her buŧŧ.

"What are you doing, you pervert!?"

"But you like it when I'm touching you like this, don't you?"

She started kissing me again and I kept squeezing her but.

[6 hours later]

I'm sitting in a shop while Hinata is in a changing room. She came out in a pink flower dress.

"What do you think?"

"It looks really beautiful on you."

She started blushing because the people in the shop are looking at us.

"Is there anything else you want to try on?"

"No."

"Alright, go and changed then."

A little bit later she came back out.

"Which one did you like the most?" asked Hinata

"I liked all of them."

"But I can't take all 15 outfits."

"Can you please pack all of these up for us."

"Yes sir." said the shop ȧssistant

"This is too much!"

"You were the one who wanted the newest editions."

"But I didn't ask for the entire stock."

"Just give me a kiss and say thank you."

"Not in front of all these people."

"Don't you want to show these women that I belong to you? There are a couple who are looking at me quite seductively."

She grabbed my neck and started kissing me. She then looked at all the women scaring them away.

"Here you go, sir. I packed everything for you."

I put the bags in a scroll and paid for the clothes.

"Is there somewhere else you want to go?"

She grabbed onto my arm.

"I want to eat Dango!"

"Sure."

'Hm? Are you kidding me! My clone has told me that the Ryunosuke clan has started investigating me.'

They are the opposite of the Bunjiro Clan. They use their brains instead of brute force. From Momo's memories, I found out that they once wiped out an entire race with just a poison gas. I also heard that they are almost unkillable because of their regeneration power.

But they have a major weakness. Their lifespan doesn't exceed 10 years. That is because of their regeneration power. And if they were to use it a lot in battle their lifespan would further decrease. Even though they don't live long their race is ranked at the top.

Luckily they don't know about this planet and only found out about my clones. Even though they aren't necessarily an evil race, they will still kill an entire race if they think that they will be a future threat.

"What are you spacing out about, babe?"

"I was just thinking about work stuff."

"How can you think about work when you are with your cute girlfriend?"

"Oh, look we arrived at the Dango place."

"Finally, I'm so hungry

'This girl is to easy.'

I looked up at the sky.

'I need to be careful. I can't have them find this planet or even I won't be able to protect it.'
