"Dad.....!!" Seeing her dad, Ino became nervous.
"Ino, you're late." Inoichi gave a stern look to her daughter. Staying out late was the only thing that Inoichi forbade.
"Uncle, it was because of me that we were late. I selfishly took Ino to have Ramen even though we were already this late. So it's not Ino's fault." Naruto spoke up for Ino. Naruto's action touched Ino.
"Oh really....!!" Inoichi looked at his daughter before looking at Naruto. As a parent, he instantly knew that this was a lie.
"Ino, why don't you go inside first? I want to speak with this young man." Inoichi said with a smile, but his Aura looked very dangerous.
"Dad...!!" This time, Ino also became a little bit angry. She sternly called her father.
Inoichi instantly became soft, seeing his daughter become angry. "Don't worry; I just want to talk," he said, waving his hand to show that he wasn't going to do anything funny.
"Alright." Ino had no choice.
She looked at Naruto one last time. "Good night, Naruto-kun."
"Good night, Ino-chan." Naruto waved at Ino with a smile.
Once Ino was gone, Inoichi looked at Naruto.
"What is your name?" Inoichi looked at Naruto.
"It's Naruto Uzumaki." Naruto felt like he was back in his Academy days. He felt like he was in front of a teacher.
"Are you perhaps the son of Lord 4th Hokage?" Inoichi's gaze softened a little as he asked the question.
"Yes, Lord 4th was my father," Naruto replied in a confident tone.
"I see...!!" Inoichi looked at Naruto for a few seconds and then nodded his head.
Inoichi could not find any fault with Naruto. His looks were outstanding. Rumor has it that Naruto was already stronger than Chunin. His strength may be in the ranks of Jonin or maybe even higher than that.
Being close to Shikaku, Inoichi knew that the current Hokage held Naruto in very high regard. In fact, according to Shikaku's estimation, the Hokage was grooming Naruto to be the next Hokage of Konoha.
'I don't see any faults with him.' Till now, Inoichi hasn't heard a single negative thing about Naruto.
'I guess if My daughter wants to marry him, I have no complaints.' Not to mention the benefits that the Yamanaka clan would receive if Naruto became the Hokage and Ino became his wife.
"Your father and I were friends. We were classmates." Inoichi looked at the starry night sky and continued.
"Now, looking at you, I have realized just how fast time has passed. The new generation has already become adults."
"Please take good care of my daughter," Inoichi said in a gentle tone.
"I will!!"
Naruto knew that their conversation was over. First, he felt that her father had a lot of things to say to him, but strangely, once he learned his name, all that changed. "Good night, Uncle!!"
Before leaving, Naruto waved at Ino, who was staring at them from the window, which made Ino blush. He then disappeared.

Scene Change_____
Within 5 minutes, Naruto returned home.
Click...!!
"I am back.....!!" As soon as Naruto walked to the living room, his mom came out of the kitchen.
"Naruto, welcome back. I missed you so much." Kushina hugged Naruto. This was the longest time that Naruto had been away from her.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and then kissed his cheeks. She almost went for his lips, but then she remembered Karin and her mother watching them.
In fact, Kushina realized that a mother and son should not be this close. And the way she hugged was inappropriate.
Knowing this, Kushina controlled her excitement and let go of Naruto. If not for them, so many things would have happened by now.
Meanwhile, Yuna felt her suspicion deepening. She always felt that Naruto and Kushina's relationship was something more than the normal relationship between mother and son. But so far, she hasn't found any evidence to support her suspicion.
Karin felt that that their relationship was a bit strange but she did not think much about it. Kushina must have been too excited to see Naruto back.
Suddenly, Kushina felt a little bit regret for letting them stay in their house. But that feeling disappeared as soon as it appeared.
"Welcome back, Naruto-kun." Yuna was sitting on the couch with Karin. Yuna looked healthier than before.
"Aunty, you look better than before." Naruto was glad to see that. This meant that he had successfully averted her death.
"Thanks to your mother and Karin taking care of me, I have recovered," Yuna replied with a smile.
"Mom, you're not 100% recovered yet. The doctor said that it would take at least another three weeks before you are fully recovered. You must regularly keep on visiting the hospital." Hearing Karin's words, Yuna pouted unhappily.
"Karin is correct, you know." Kushina also agreed with Karin.
"So, how is everything going in my absence?" Naruto asked as he sat on the opposite couch facing Karin and Yuna.
Meanwhile, Kushina returned to the kitchen. With Karin and Yuna, their house has become very lively. Although this means that their sex time has been significantly reduced, Kushina did not mind. This wasn't a bad thing.
"It's going well." Karin replied in three words.
"Karin has been training under Kushina's guidance every single day. She is also learning to cook for your sake."
"MOM....!!!"
Karin looked flustered. Her cheeks flushed red.
"I am not doing this for him. I am learning to cook so that I can help Aunty." Karin felt that since she and her mother were staying in their house, it would only be fair if she helped around the house.
"You mean your future mother-in-law?" Yuna teasingly asked.
"MOM...!!" This time, Karin was really flustered. Her whole face had turned red.
From the corner of her eyes, she sneaky looked at Naruto and found him smiling at her. This made her even more embarrassed.
"How was your mission, Naruto-kun?" Yuna asked curiously.
"It went well. There wasn't much to do other than walk through the forest."
"But one good thing that happened was that I met Granny Tsunade and sister Shizune in Tanzaku town."
Kushina heard Naruto's words from the kitchen.
"You really met her.....!!" Kushina came out of the kitchen, looking excited. She hasn't seen Tsunade since she was pregnant with Naruto.
"Yesh.....!! And she is coming back to the village within 15 days." Naruto said with a smirk.
"Really?" Kushina looked very excited.
Even Karin and Yuna wanted to meet the legendary Tsunade. After all, despite having lived their lives in a remote village that had almost no connection to the outside world, they still knew about the greatest medical Shinobi in the whole world.
"Tsunade will live with us." Hearing the last part, Kushina became confused.
"Why would she live with us?" Kushina asked with a confused look.
Naruto just mysteriously smiled. "You all will find out when the right time comes." Kushina pouted upon hearing this. But she didn't say anything. She just returned to the kitchen.
"Karin-chan, do you mind helping me chop some vegetables?" Kushina called Karin from the kitchen.
"No problem." Karin was more than happy to help Kushina. Besides, she feared that her mother would continue to embarrass her in front of Naruto, so she quickly fled to the Kitchen.
"Aunty, tomorrow, let me take you to the hospital."
"I will be troubling you, Naruto-kun."
"It's alright." Naruto did not mind.
Soon, the whole family had dinner together. On the dining table, Kushina was mostly talking to Yuna. Both mature women talked about a lot of things. It was as if they never ran out of topics to talk about. Karin and Naruto mostly listened and only gave their opinions when they were asked about it.
"Mom, I am feeling exhausted after everything, so I will head to bed." Naruto wanted to take some rest. Also, he gave the excuse to go to his bedroom so that he could wait for Kushina.
"Alright!!"
Meanwhile, all the women were busy watching TV. They were watching a drama about a woman who is in love with her brother-in-law, and her husband is dead. The story revolves around the brother-in-law trying to make the woman fall in love with him.
Naruto wasn't interested in such things. He doesn't understand why women are so interested in such drama.
"By the way, Karin, tomorrow, I will take you to meet your new teacher." Kushina suddenly said.
"New Teacher?" Karin and Yuna were both curious about this new teacher.
"Yes! Her name is Anko Mitarashi. She is a jonin, but currently, she has nothing to do, so she is mostly idle in the village. She has agreed to train you for 2 weeks."
"Karin, if you want to become Genin as soon as possible, then aside from learning all three required Jutsu, you must also gain knowledge that Genin are expected to know. Anko will teach you all of that within two weeks. After that, we can resume our training as usual."
Kushina cannot focus all of her attention on Karin. She had four other students as well. And now, it was her turn to take Missions with team 7.
Besides, Anko was in need of money since she had recently bought a house for herself. She has taken a big loan, so she was happy to take this high-paying job.
In exchange for money, Kushina would get some free time with her squad. After two weeks, she planned to hand all the responsibilities of team 7 to Kakashi for 2 to 3 weeks until Kushina fully finished teaching Karin all the basic Jutsu that a Genin needed to know.
After that, Kushina planned to add Karin as a part of the 7 team officially, but if she did not fit into the team, then she could join other teams.
"Tomorrow morning, I will take you to see her." Karin nodded.
Kushina stayed to watch TV for another 30 minutes before she went to her bedroom.
"Don't stay awake too long. It's not good for your health."

Scene Change______
In his bedroom, Naruto waited for Kushina. He was lying in his bedroom while wearing shorts.
"I have to learn Flying Thunder God Jutsu before the Chunin exam," Naruto said to himself. Learning this Jutsu will give him another trump card to use. Not to mention, there are daily advantages to being able to use this Jutsu.
Click...!!!
Through the window, Kushina came to his bedroom. She has sealed all the bedrooms and the entire house with Fuinjutsu. No one will be able to sense where the real Kushina or the real Naruto is. She has left a clone to sleep in her bedroom in case Karin or Yuna knocks on her bedroom.
All the rooms were made soundproof using Fuinjutsu. No sensory Ninja will be able to find out how many people lived in the house. Not even Hyuga clan members can see through the walls of their house.
Kushina entered his bedroom with a small smile on her face. She was wearing a white baby doll. The baby doll was almost white and transparent. Naruto can see her hard pink nipples.
"I have been waiting for this opportunity for more than two days now." Kushina could see that Naruto was equally anticipating this. He was already hard.
Without any hesitation, she climbed Naruto's bed.
"You missed me...!!" Kushina said while rubbing Naruto's penis over his pants.
"You have no idea.....!!!" Naruto with a smile.
"What a naughty boy.....!! It looks like Mommy will need to punish you."
