"Huh? Didn't Mito marry Hashirama? Then what's going on here?"
As if he could see Akira's confusion, Yusuke responded with a teasing smile.
"Hashirama married Mito's cousin Nanako. What's wrong? Are you afraid that Mito will be taken away by someone else?"
After hearing Yusuke's explanation, Akira reacted immediately. After all, hhe had seen the girl that Yusuke was talking about, the girl who was three years older than him, gentle, considerate, and understanding, especially the pair of giant cats on her chest, which were frankly... pretty impressive to say the least.
If it weren't for the existence of the genderbend Madara in Akira's mind, she would be Akira's ideal partner.
'If he is going to marry her, then it wouldn't be surprising at all. However, could it be that Mito was Hashirama's second wedding? No wonder Mito and Tsunade's ages don't match.' (T/N:.... should i use my power to like.. delete this? Cause frankly idk if this would be brought up again in the future.. i'll leave it as is for now..)
After calming down his thoughts, Akira picked up the letter again and found that it said that Hashirama's wedding date was set for five days later.
"That is to say, my 'study abroad journey' is coming to an end."
Akira felt excited at the thought that he would have the chance to see Madara again. (T/N: the mc is inlove love with Madara... damn...)
"Lord Yusuke, I'm afraid that after I go back this time, I won't have much time to come here again. Thank you for your care during this period of time."
"Umu!"
Yusuke nodded in satisfaction, but then spoke again.
"In that case, Akira, why don't you take Mito with you when you go back this time? I'll be there in a few days anyway."
"I'm afraid i can't.."
Akira immediately declined Yusuke's suggestion. If he was alone, Akira was sure that he could escape from the pursuit of the any enemy shinobi, but with Mito, the possibility of survival would be greatly reduced. After all, this was the Warring States period where there were many powerful people, which was by no means comparable to the greenhouse-like Naruto world that came later.
By the way, there was no concept of Kage during the Warring States Period, and there were basically only three or two Jonin in each ninja clan, and their strength was basically at the Kage level.
However, Yusuke seemed not to have heard Akira's refusal. He waved his hand nonchalantly and then said.
"What's the big deal? If you don't take her with you, she'll probably tear your house apart in the next few days, only you can control her."
Akira felt a headache when he thought about how Mito would act recklessly without his supervision...
"Can..."
"I think Akira, you will definitely protect my little princess."
"I..."
"Yeah!"
Before Akira could continue to express his opinion, Mito next to him immediately cheered.
"I'm going to pack my bags."
After saying that, Mito didn't even care about other his reactions and rushed towards her room, leaving Akira stunned.
At this time, Akira realized that he seemed to have been tricked by Mito and Yusuke, the father and daughter duo...
But now that the rice has been cooked, and Akira is powerless to change the current situation.
he can only complain to Yusuke.
"Lord Yusuke, can't you take care of your daughter?"
"And why should i do that?"
Yusuke smiled, then looked at Akira and added meaningfully, "What Mito wants should be decided by her future husband, don't you think?"
Hearing Yusuke's teasing, Akira, who was a little upset, did not hear the other party's "meaning", so he chose to shut up wisely. After all, Mito's current mischievous behavior was entirely his own fault, and After thinking about it, it would be more practical to continue to cling to Madara.
'Madara its been 12 years.. I miss her...'
.......
Since being cheated was already a fact, Akira didn't say much. He said goodbye to Yusuke and started to go back to pack up his stuff.
Since Akira was only 'studying abroad', he didn't have many things here. After a short while, he packed up everything he needed to take.
The next morning, Akira returned to the door of Yusuke's estate again, and saw Mito, who was dragging a package more than one meter tall, and struggling to move towards the door like an ant moving gianr.
This situation made Akira look very upset.
Seeing that Mito was unable to lift the her Luggage, Akira walked up to her and ask her.
"Why did you pack so many things?"
"Its a gift!" Mito said as if it was a matter of course, "there are some for my grandfather, some for Uncle Furuma, and some..." she then open the lugga and expose a huge doll's hand.
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Akira pointed at the exposed hand and asked helplessly.
"No one will want this thing."
"What?"
Seeing Akira's look, Mito pouted and said, "This is the gift you gave me before. Did you forget about it?"
After Mito's reminder, Akira immediately recalled that in order to have a good relationship with Mito, he had given her several dolls that were almost as tall as her.
Seeing that Mito looked a lbit unhappy, Akira immediately responded a little bit nervously.
"How, how is it possible, how could I forget?"
"really? You didn't forgot?"
"Of course it's true, i totally didn't forgot about it."
Noticing that Mito wanted to 'pursue' something, Akira quickly began to change the subject.
"Mito, your luggage is so heavy, can't you use a sealing scroll?"
"Oh, yes, I was so excited that I forgot about it!"
Mito's sudden realization once again left Akira speechless.
'This silly girl, I hope I won't turn her into a fool. I just want my 'sister-in-law' to give me more protection in the future...'
Akira was sighing here, and Mito over there skillfully sealed the package that was as tall as a her.
"Done, Akira Oni-san, let's go."
"...ok...."
After bidding farewell to the guards at the entrance of the village, Akira and Mito officially set out on the road to return to the Senju clan, but...
"Akira Oni-san, I'm thirsty..."
"Okay, I brought some drinks"!
"Akira Oni-san, I'm hungry..."
"Oh, I brought some pastries."
"Akira Oni-san, I'm tired."
"Well, come on up, I'll carry you."
After carrying Mito for a distance, Akira once again realized something was wrong.
'Aren't we going back to the Senju clan? Why are we acting like when we usually go out to play?'
'No, no, I have to make some changes, otherwise Mito will be completely corrupted by me.'
Thinking of this, Akira stopped immediately.
Mito, who was being piggyback carried on Akira's back and singing leisurely, noticed the other party's change and immediately asked nervously.
"Akira Oni-san, what's wrong? Are there enemies?"
The girl's inquiring voice blew gently beside his ear, and this level of contact instantly made Akira feel something was wrong.
After putting the her down from his back, Akira looked at Mito, who seemed a little shy because of what he was looking at. But in an instant, he replaced the other's face with a useless snake named "Sandwich Sauce". (T/N: i genuinely don't know what is Sandwich Sauce.. sasuke? Or is this like a chinese meme or something...)
This was a little unacceptable to Akira.
"Wait here, I'm going to the bathroom first."
"Okay!"
