Chapter 38: 38. Adrenaline
Yumi was so angry that Itachi wondered if she would awaken Sharingan somehow.
Her eyes were red for some reason.
"I-" She took a deep breath.
A few deep breaths.
Now, her face was blank.
Completely devoid of emotions.
"I hate you," she calmly said.
Itachi shivered.
The killing intent she released with those words made him feel scared.
It felt like all the killing intent was concentrated.
"Cool, anyway, what happened?" Yukio smirked.
It seems she is not that hopeless after all; she can control her emotions, so that's a first step towards something.
Miyuki briefed him about the situation.
"Cool. So, you guys need me to teleport? You should have asked me to send a shadow clone then," Yukio said to Miyuki while shaking his head.
He could have done some high chakra-intensive things with his main body or something else; now his shadow clones are all alone doing the unending amount of tasks there is to do.
"Oh, you want to leave me all alone here? Defenseless?" Miyuki said in a low but chilling tone.
"On second thought, I could always let my shadow clone be teleported away with you being here," Yukio changed his mind immediately.
'What do you mean defenceless? You probably would kill that guy with the seal you have on you if he tries to kill you by phasing through your heart; even without that, you would take him down before you die,' Yukio internally cursed Miyuki who was smiling.
"Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" Yukio didn't like the long nice.
Nothing was nice about this scenario.
Itachi and Yumi sweatdropped at... whatever scene they were witnessing.
"Anyway, what is your mission?"
"We need to get some information from our spies in the Land of Earth," Miyuki said while giving him the scroll.
"Oh, that mission. I know it; I was the one who created it," Yukio said while quickly skimming through the scroll to make sure that it was the right one.
"Hmm, I don't think we are supposed to tell somebody else our mission details, are we?"
"Why did he create the mission?"
"Hmm, well, I have my ways," Yukio briefly replied while tossing the scroll back to Miyuki.
He was interested in whether Obito would meet him or not.
Though it seems unlikely.
Miyuki rolled her eyes.
She is already desensitized to the being called Yukio and how eccentric he has become.
Hopefully, her rate of desensitization catches up to the rate of how his eccentricity increases.
If not, she won't be able to handle Yukio.
"Anyway, I did want to evaluate the spy network in Iwa; I think it's compromised, so it would be an interesting mission for you guys," Yukio looked at the other two.
"Hmm, so what are we supposed to do?" Yumi asked.
Itachi was pondering over all the information he got about the next set of actions if the spy network was compromised.
"Well, we can always-" Miyuki was cut off by Yukio putting a finger on her lip.
"Why don't you guys figure out what to do? I think you have enough information," Yukio said.
"Fine, we will be camping now anyway. I will think with a clear head tomorrow morning," Yumi bolted to set up her tent.
Itachi after a second followed her.
"Anyway, how was your encount-" Yukio paused midway and deadpanned.
Miyuki was sucking his finger which he had put earlier to stop her from talking.
"Uhh, I think I want my finger back," Yukio said awkwardly, but Miyuki didn't stop.
"Hmm, eeeee," Yukio took his finger back as he felt electricity course through his body.
"I won't bite, but I can shock you," Miyuki grinned.
Yukio cursed his luck.
He used chakra to burst out of his finger such that all the saliva was removed.
He would have liked it if it was something other than his finger.
But beggars can't be choosers after all.
"Do that again if you wanna get bitten- no, shocked," Miyuki giggled at her own joke.
"Maybe I would then," Yukio rolled his eyes.
"Anyway, it was unexpected to get attacked like that, but I was expecting something like that."
Miyuki had activated her privacy seal such that nobody could spy on her within a radius of 10 meters.
Yukio took a seat on the branch high up.
He was an old man and had to run this large distance.
Obviously, he would be tired.
Miyuki also jumped from the ground and took a seat.
"Hmm, uhh, I guess that was going to happen," Miyuki took a seat on Yukio's lap.
"Still, the adrenaline was thrilling; I thought I would die, it was so much fun," Miyuki had crazed eyes at the moment.
"Jeez, why am I even surprised?" Yukio sighed.
Miyuki even in her last life did like situations that gave her a lot of adrenaline, at least most of the time.
There are always exceptions.
Anyway, she always used to go for dangerous or hardcore sports like rock climbing or more like mountain climbing and then come back down by rappelling, or skydiving; they had even done wingsuit flying in their previous lives.
And she always used to rope Yukio in with her, much to the latter's displeasure.
Heck, Yukio's tendency to do dangerous stuff in this life was actually kind of a side effect of living with Miyuki too much.
Heck, the most dangerous thing Miyuki had done was solo climbing. That day Yukio was just an observer; the number of times his heart nearly came out was immeasurable.
He had to meet a heart doctor later to get himself checked.
Miyuki started to describe the details of the encounter like a broken record.
She was even forgetting to put spaces between words due to so much excitement.
It was like she was in a sugar rush or something.
Yukio didn't have any difficulty understanding what she was saying.
He could predict some parts by listening to some, along with lip reading and focusing on her at the moment.
Miyuki finally completed her recall.
"Cool, have you finally calmed down?" Yukio asked, seeing that Miyuki was breathing—no, inhaling air due to saying too much without taking a break.
Heck, due to her being a ninja and having chakra in her body, she could speak so long without needing air.
Yukio waited for a few seconds and watched Miyuki take in the air.
"I will try to-" Yukio was cut off by Miyuki kissing him.
The kiss was tongue to tongue, a French kiss? Well, more like a primal kiss.
Tongues flew and saliva was flying.
Mind you, this is happening according to ninja standards, not civilian standards, so...
The kiss lasted for 5 whole minutes.
Miyuki finally stopped due to being out of air.
Yukio also was breathing roughly.
He was not expecting this intense kiss when he woke up in the morning.
"Let's have sex."
"No," Yukio instantly denied.
No, he wasn't in the mood to have sex on a branch.
Okay, that idea might be tempting, but unfortunately, they were first in an open area where they had only set up a privacy seal.
He doesn't want to be the guy who died while having sex like an idiot.
Second, he was technically supervising two kids; well, Miyuki was supposed to, but now he is as the latter is not in the right state of mind.
Miyuki wanted to say something, but before she could, Yukio weaved a hand seal.
He spewed water and soaked Miyuki fully.
It also made him wet directly, but the time it would take him to get dry is less than some people's blinking time.
"Are you finally not horny?" Yukio asked.
"Actually, I am," Miyuki said and then grinned.
In the next instant, she got another water shot point blank.
"Now?" Yukio smirked.
"You do know that water you produce could conduct lightning," Miyuki could feel that the water Yukio had produced wasn't fully pure; it had minerals which meant electricity would conduct it.
Lightning could be seen materializing from Miyuki's outer body, and then it directly flowed to Yukio.
Surprisingly, the lightning didn't shock him but rather flowed on Yukio's surface too, such that it was not cycling between Yukio and Miyuki's bodies.
It was a kind of circuit with wire as a pathway for the electricity.
"You- You took over the control of my electricity," Miyuki pouted.
Yukio cannot really surpass her mastery of electricity.
That hasn't happened and will probably not happen anytime soon.
Yukio had controlled the pathway for her lightning, so indirectly not let electricity flow out of the water.
"Well, that was my revenge against your lightning attempt."
"Jeez, you are such a baby," Miyuki shook her head.
"I don't think you should be the one-" Yukio was interrupted by a headbutt from Miyuki which then led to him getting shocked.
"You did that two times continuously, so it's fair for me to do that," Miyuki jumped off with a te-he, such that Yukio was falling down.
