Chapter 93 - What War?

12 hours later… Morning… While everyone was gathering at the bottom of the Hokage's office awaiting the orders of the hokage.
Meanwhile... in Namikaze's residence, Naruto and Haku had been going on ever since he arrived home and Haku was still energetic. As expected of a Jounin.
A few moments later…
Crash!!
The bed they were on collapsed causing Naruto to tease "Ah… ah… it's all your fault, Haku. You destroyed the bed."
Haku pouted and playfully punched Naruto's stomach, "Like you can speak. You did it to me a while ago and I thought I was gonna die from pleasure."
As she replied, she ignored the destroyed bed and hugged Naruto's waist as she leaned her head on his chest with a blissful smile.
"Ouch… haha…" Naruto chuckled slightly at her punch. Although it didn't hurt, he just thought it was good to react this way.
As Naruto hugged her back on the collapsed bed, he grinned and teased "Haku-chan? Did you forget that there's a war today as you let yourself be consumed by carnal desires?"
Haku snorted at his teasing but replied with a smile "Of course not but… I think it'll be fine when you're back. You've gotten stronger… right?"
Naruto nodded and smiled as he felt Haku's trust in him. "If I say I'm the strongest right now even if all the ninjas in the world ganged up on me, I can kill them all at the same time with one attack."
Haku's eyes were filled with surprise. Although she thought that Naruto had gotten stronger, she didn't expect that he'd be that strong when he returned.
She merely smiled and replied "Is that so? That's a relief then."
Naruto nodded again and said "Alright, it's time for war. A clone notified me just a while ago. Wanna go watch me raze their ninjas to the ground?"
Haku didn't even think about it and nodded before asking "Sure."
Naruto slowly raised them off the ground with [Wind Sage Chakra] and said as he positioned Haku to stand up on the floor. "Alright, let's wear something. Although I like what I'm seeing, I can't bear to let anyone else see it for themselves."
Haku blushed slightly and replied "Ecchi."
Naruto smiled and said "Thanks for the compliment."
"It wasn't a com… nevermind. Just go and wear something but… can any of your clothes fit your current body?"
Haku asked as he stared at Naruto's body after 2 years. It had grown significantly bigger and taller than how it was two years ago.
Although it has only been 2 years, it was like 5 years had passed with how his body had grown.
Naruto smiled, "My old clothes would probably not fit my current body but I can adjust it."
"Adjust it? Did you learn tailoring in the past two years?" Haku asked as she tilted her head in confusion.
Naruto chuckled and replied "Of course not." as he snapped his finger and clothes from his wardrobe teleported to Haku's current room.
Naruto slapped his hands together and closed his eyes as he surrounded the clothes that he brought from his wardrobe with [Wind Sage Chakra].
Haku watched in interest as to what Naruto was doing.
In an instant, the clothes were cut to shreds and in the next instant it became a pair of long sleeves and pants.
The long sleeves and pants were all black besides the orange lining on the sides.
As he stretched his arms towards the skies, the long sleeves and pants wore itself to him like they had their own minds.
As the clothes were a bit dirty, Naruto used [Water Sage Chakra] to surround himself with water and also take a bath himself at a fast speed and sent the [Water Sage Chakra] he used towards a river about 5 kilometers away from their place through the window.
Looking at Haku who was staring at him, he smiled and replied "Done."
Haku chuckled in reply "Is it fine to use [Sage Chakra] like that?"
Naruto shrugged as if bragging. "Why not?"
Haku simply smiled and said as she brought out clothes from her wardrobe. "Okay. Can you make me clothes too? I want the same design as you but with white color instead and blue lining on the side."
Naruto agreed and created it for her using her clothes that she brought out from her wardrobe.
He also wore it to Haku himself using [Wind Sage Chakra].
In return, Haku pouted and said "Ecchi. You've already seen and touched everything and you touch it again with [Wind Sage Chakra]."
Naruto grinned and replied "I can't get enough of you."
Naruto stretched his hand "Come on. Let's go."
Haku decided to forget about it and nodded as she intertwined her fingers with his and asked "Where are we going now? We're not proceeding to war this instant right?"
Naruto replied "Not right now but in a bit."
"Hm?"
"We'll go take Kurama with us."
"Kurama?"
"Oh right. I haven't told you the name of the nine-tailed fox huh? It's Kurama."
"You've tamed the nine-tailed beast too huh? You're really strong now." Haku said in awe of his current powers.
Naruto smiled and said before he teleported them using [Flying Thunder God Jutsu] "Well… you can say that but it's better to say that I made it a friend."
Swish!
Root…
Naruto, who had his hand intertwined with Haku, looked around and called out "Kurama-chan."
"Hm!?" Kurama grumpily looked at him as if he wanted to eat him but knew it was Naruto so he didn't do anything but ask "What do you want? Brat?"
Naruto waved his hands and laughed "Don't be so grumpy in the morning, Kurama. We're going to war. Wanna come? I'll let you fight the eight-tailed beast."
Kurama's eyes gleamed in expectation but asked in curiosity "What do you even need me for? Even if you're up against all of us, you'll beat us to the ground in a minute or two."
Naruto laughed out loud and replied "That's true but I'm gonna play around in the war so you can play around with the eight-tailed beast and I play around the kages and ninjas."
Kurama slowly stood up with his four legs and replied as he grinned "Sure, why not. It's boring here anyway."
Naruto nodded and replied as he looked around where Kurama was staying in "I'll make you a place to stay later on the top of Konoha so you can look down around the humans. You like sleeping anyway."
Kurama snorted but didn't say anything as he indeed liked to sleep, the only reason he wandered was because of the annoying ninja flies before Hashirama caught him and sealed him into an Uzumaki. He also liked to look down on humans. If possible he wanted to look down on Naruto but he was too strong so he just accepted it.
"Kurama. This is Yuki Haku. My wife, so you better treat her better or I'll beat you to the ground and seal you inside the one tailed fox. Haku. This is Kurama." Naruto introduced them to each other.
Meanwhile, Kurama's lips twitched and imagined what he said happening, he definitely didn't want to be sealed to that tanuki and replied "Nice to meet you. Yuki Haku."
Haku was amused by their conversation and Naruto had definitely tamed Kurama but replied as she nodded "Nice to meet you, Kurama."
Naruto without any warning carried Haku in his arms and said "Let's go."
Haku smiled and said "Um." as she nodded, enjoying the feeling of being carried.
Naruto jumped up and rode on top of Kurama while carrying Haku.
With Haku in front of Naruto, he teleported them both to the top of the Hokage's office using [Flying Thunder God Jutsu]
Swish!
Hokage's rooftop…
Ninjas on top of ninjas gathered at the bottom looking up to the Hokage waiting for her order.
Just before Tsunade stepped forward, Naruto arrived along with Haku as he rode on top of Kurama and said as he waved one of his hands "Yo!"
As he arrived, he saw Hashirama, Tobirama, Hiruzen, Jiraiya, and Tsunade there.
His greeting got their attention and Jiraiya teased him as he saw him holding Haku's hand "Heh… You're my godson alright, you have great taste!"
Naruto chuckled and replied enthusiastically "Right?! Right?! I knew Perverted Sage would understand me!"
Haku who's hand was being held by Naruto blushed as he bragged about her in front of everybody with the thought 'It's a bit embarrassing but it feels nice…'
Tsunade snorted at Jiraiya and Naruto's conversation and cut straight to the point. "So? What are you here for? I was just about to give a speech before we go to war."
Naruto tilted his head and asked "What war?"
Tsunade in annoyance replied "The war against the…" but stopped suddenly.
Tsunade, Jiraiya and the rest of the hokages grinned and sweated as they saw Naruto gently smile and let out his chakra presence.
"There will be no war."
5 simple words yet they felt certainty in his words.
Haku who was sitting in front of Naruto also smiled as she felt it as well but unlike the presence the 5 people on the hokage's rooftop felt, it was gentle. Naruto's chakra control was as good as ever.
