It all happened too suddenly... Here Tsume was screaming and looking for justice, but now, she herself became a victim. Naruto firmly held her fragile neck and slowly lifted her weak body off the ground.
Like a mischievous puppy, the Hokage didn't treat the head of the Inuzuka clan much better...
With one hand he held her whole life!
At that moment, Tsume finally realized that the monster she was facing wasn't the Naruto Uzumaki from the past! Here and now, she ran into someone else...
His heartless decisions, his intimidating actions, his cold gaze...
It is at such dangerous moments that one can feel how important, but at the same time insignificant, life can be, and how terrible the one who controls it can be!
Tsume's pupils constricted, goosebumps enveloped his trembling body, and a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. For the first time in many years of her life, she felt so helpless! It was different from all situations on the verge of life and death - one movement, and nothing will remain of her!
Powerlessness, despair, mistrust, awareness... All feelings reflected on the pitiful and reddened face of the kunoichi!
This could not but plunge into animal horror ...
Overwhelmed with confusion, she could not even utter a word, and finally showed the same panicked and desperate look that Akita, who at the moment could only pray...
"How stupid…" Naruto snorted contemptuously, increasing the pressure, "What were you even counting on?" It was worth obeying and having fun ... So much ambition, but in the end ... What a disappointment.
He laughed coldly, and no one would dare to argue whether he had a reason and a right to do so. After all, Tsume herself came here. So weak and pathetic... What could she possibly rely on to resist the strongest being on the planet?
If it was Tsunade, Naruto could very well endure and let her go, but as far as that insignificant dog is concerned...
Hehe... In his eyes, she was almost worthless! A simple trophy whose emotions weren't all that exciting...
In all aspects, Tsume was inferior to Tsunade, and in arrogance she could compete at all. And why did he have to endure this a second time, for the sake of some insignificant bedding?
Naruto didn't resent the weak, rather, he just felt sorry for them. Of course, as long as they were women. If he ran into the same arrogant male shinobi, he would have swatted him like an insignificant fly a long time ago. Tsuma was also lucky that he endured her for so long. But, whatever you say, it could also be used "in a special way" ...
Naruto didn't stop taunting her as he continued to mentally suppress her.
"Hmm, yapping so brazenly at someone who can easily finish you off… In the spirit of stupid dogs…" He squeezed her neck even tighter and growled angrily:
"I'll have to train you properly!" Soon you will learn how pathetic bitches are supposed to open their mouths in my presence!
Tsume made the biggest mistake of her life - she forgot how the weak should behave in front of the strong! She's gotten away with it for years, but today, it's finally over. Although, it was still not worth blaming her, because if the past Naruto was standing here and now, then it is likely that he would lower his head ...
Unfortunately, Tsume did not know the terrible truth that a completely different person was standing in front of her. She may have noticed the Hokage's changes, but she probably didn't accept them properly. In her case, it was worth quickly falling to her knees and surrendering, only in this way Tsume could ease her fate, but who knew that instead she would also dare to behave with such complacency?
To lose the basis of instinct - fear of the strong, what could be even more stupid?
For Tsume, there were only two ways: to swallow the insult and retreat, or to come to the Hokage and ask on his knees for Akita. But why would such a proud woman stoop to such a thing?
Sometimes people try too hard to prove their superiority and think too much of themselves. Instead of silence, they open their mouths and face dire consequences...
Maybe people have moved away from life under the shadow of instincts, but this is only at first glance. Most often, prejudices and personality traits are based precisely on instincts. Overcome fears, rise and gain power ... Satisfying one's own needs is an innate human instinct. Even Naruto was the same.
Under the pressure of society, under the shackles of society, people are forced to either give up and lower their heads, or else find ways to climb up the food chain. Ultimately, it becomes a dangerous habit, because greed and self-importance can easily blind many.
No matter how high mankind has risen, the main law of survival has not changed. The weak get fewer resources, the strong are content with everything. The very system of hidden villages was built on this. An organization that indoctrinates its subordinates with the ideology of the Will of Fire. How many people died for the sake of the village, ignoring their own interests?
Even the Hokage did not dare to take on more than he was supposed to and had to consider all options for resolving the conflict with the head of an important clan. That's why Naruto's actions shocked Tsume so much. He broke all the rules and laws, abused power and strength, and had a completely abnormal mindset. This is not something that was surprising, rather, among the Hokage, such as he never existed!
Naruto didn't care deeply about rules and regulations, he was just having fun and enjoying life. As for Tsume... Why did she bring Akita with her? At first glance, one would draw the obvious conclusion - her desire to find justice for a family member. But, the truth is that behind this goal, imposed by morality, there was an instinctive desire to strengthen her position, and not allow a more powerful person to put pressure on her. If you show weakness now, then who knows what he will do next!
Unconsciously, Tsume believed that the presence of a clan member would help her in a decisive offensive, and perhaps even benefit from it for further Disbandment negotiations. She may have despised and underestimated men, but she still couldn't go against the Hokage just like that. But, the fun fact is that she did it not because she wanted to help, but only for her own sake.
Someone dared to threaten a member of the Inuzuka clan? As a proud head, how could she lower her head? Reputation, self-conceit, strengthened belief in one's strength... Tsume was limited from all sides. How could she defeat a man who was a master at understanding other people's weaknesses? With these shackles, what chance did she even have against a demon for whom human nature itself was nothing more than a toy?
Faith in the rules, in yourself and in the limitations of the enemy... Tsume was quite understandable. But she didn't imagine that for him, her body was just prey! The so-called "rape" was not a simple political provocation or a mistake. He really wanted to do it!
In his eyes, neither her strength nor her title mattered, not to mention her own title and reputation... Just tools!
Surely a normal Hokage wouldn't openly go against the head of an important clan in the Village, but Naruto?
That's just funny!
He cared only for his own interests and desires. He was ready to take any risk in order to quench his thirst - to sacrifice all the pieces for the pleasure of the king. He was driven by the lowest instincts, something that no Hokage could afford, and something that normal people did not take into account when they dealt with him.
