“Little girl, why are you throwing a tantrum at me? I didn’t do anything to you.”

Shin returned to the Land of Whirlpools and saw Hanabi glaring at him with a cold face, leaving him utterly bewildered.

He racked his brain but couldn’t recall bullying Hanabi in the past few days. Could it be because he didn’t bully her that she’s angry?

‘Hmm, Perhaps she’s a masochist…’ Shin nodded to himself.

“Don’t worry, Little girl. I’ll bully you often from now on.” Shin patted Hanabi’s head.

Hanabi clearly didn’t know what Shin was thinking. But hearing Shin say he would bully her often made her face darken even more.

Moreover, Hanabi felt she had grown up. Being called “Little girl” by Shin still made her feel a bit dissatisfied.

Seeing Hanabi get even angrier, Shin couldn’t help but shake his head.

“Hmph! Why did you suddenly go out?” Hanabi huffed, hands on her hips, questioning Shin.

BAAAAM!!!

“Hanabi, I don’t need to report my whereabouts to you.” Shin rapped Hanabi on the head with his knuckles, then walked past her and into the house.

“Waaaah! He bullied me AGAIN! Big Sister, the big meanie bullied me!” Hanabi ran off crying to find Hinata.

“…”

“Is she really crying?” Shin couldn’t help but glance back.

Seeing Hanabi sneakily peeking back at him, Shin knew it was mostly fake crying. Besides, Shin hadn’t used much force earlier; it wouldn’t have hurt Hanabi.

‘Forget it. I’m not going to bother with this inexplicably moody little girl.’ Shin walked into the house.

….

“Huh? Why isn’t anyone asking where I went this time?” Shin asked Tsunade and the others, somewhat surprised.

Shin had expected Kushina, Tsunade, and the others to definitely ask where he’d been. He hadn’t expected them not to ask at all.

“Tch! What’s the point? You never tell the truth anyway,” Tsunade said, glancing at Shin with a light scoff.

“Yeah, even if you were out cheating on us, we can’t stop you.” Mikoto shrugged, looking utterly helpless.

Shin sat down beside Mikoto and said exasperatedly, “If I was cheating, that’d be one thing. But I wasn’t. I wouldn’t hide it if I was.”

“Oh? So you want to be open about it? Quite the Casanova, aren’t you?” Mikoto said, looking at Shin with interest.

“Mikoto, are you trying to start something?” Shin raised an eyebrow, then pulled Mikoto over, staring at her seriously.

Lying in Shin’s embrace, Mikoto blushed slightly as Shin stared at her. It wasn’t that Mikoto was a shy person, but there were other people watching.

Kushina, Tsunade, Konan, Mei Terumī—everyone except Hinata, Karin, and Hanabi, who weren’t present—was here, watching the show.

“Shin, don’t hesitate! Hurry up and discipline Mikoto! I’ll cheer for you!” Kushina shouted enthusiastically.

Mikoto, being held by Shin, shot Kushina a deep look. ‘I’ll remember this, Kushina. I hope you don’t fall into my hands in the future.’

As for the sisterly bond between them?? It was just a superficial friendship, very fragile. Even more fragile than plastic—it would break with a single touch!

“Shin, I think you should sort out Kushina, that loudmouth. She’s always yelling and causing trouble.” Mikoto leaned close to Shin’s ear, her breath like orchids as she spoke.

“Is that so?” Shin looked at Mikoto with a slight smile, a smile that made Mikoto’s heart flutter.

“Actually, I have a suggestion. How about you sort out both of them at once?” Mei Terumī, completely enjoying the drama, wasn’t about to let things calm down.

The bigger the commotion… the better!

She even hoped it would escalate further; it would be a great show.

After Mei Terumī spoke, Kushina and Mikoto exchanged a look, then immediately formed a united front.

“Shin, could you let me go for a moment? I have some… personal business to attend to,” Mikoto asked Shin softly.

Shin glanced at Mei Terumī, then nodded with a smile.

After Shin released Mikoto, she and Kushina advanced towards Mei Terumī.

“What are you two doing? Ganging up on me? Let me tell you, I’m not afraid of you!” Mei Terumī said, leaning back warily on the sofa.

“Honestly, like me and Konan, just watching the show quietly would have been fine. You just had to open your mouth. Now look, you’ve become the show.” Tsunade said with schadenfreude.

Mei Terumī looked at Tsunade with a frustrated expression.

“Good luck.” Konan gave Mei Terumī a look of sympathy but had no intention of rescuing her.

“Shin, are you just going to sit there and watch??” Mei Terumī didn’t expect Tsunade or Konan to help her. She’d be grateful if they didn’t add to the chaos.

“Sorry. After much thought, I’ve decided to just watch the show.” Shin shrugged, looking like he didn’t want to get involved.

“Hmph! The promise I made to you earlier… it’s off now!” Mei Terumī huffed angrily.

“Don’t! Kushina, Mikoto, give me some face. Let Mei off this once—” Shin heard this and knew he couldn’t stay out of it, even if he wanted to.

“Letting her off is impossible. Whatever Mei promised you, Mikoto and I will also promise.” Kushina said to Shin, holding Mei Terumī’s hands.

Shin’s eyes lit up, a hesitant look on his face…

Should he save Mei?

Kushina and Mikoto together… that was double the pleasure…

Mei Terumī alone couldn’t compare…

“Sorry, Mei. Rest in peace.” Shin turned his head away dramatically.

Mei Terumī was furious. That bastard had no loyalty!

“Wait—”

Just as Mei Terumī was about to say something, Mikoto suddenly covered her mouth, preventing her from saying anything that might turn the tables.

Gag her first!

“As expected of Mikoto, so smart.” Kushina gave Mikoto a thumbs-up, then they both dealt with Mei Terumī.

Ten minutes later, Mei Terumī’s eyes were vacant, her clothes somewhat disheveled, revealing glimpses of skin. Shin couldn’t help but sneak a few peeks.

But after a few glances, Shin thought, ‘Why am I sneaking peeks? I can just look openly.’

Alright, his sneaking peeks turned into openly staring at Mei Terumī.

“Stop staring at me!” Mei Terumī shot Shin an annoyed glare, clearly resentful towards him. That shameless jerk!

And Kushina… to agree to anything without even knowing what she had promised Shin!

You’ll regret this!
