Chapter 167: I Keep My Word
Chapter 167: I Keep My Word
Akita, red with embarrassment, listening to the words of the Hokage with a shiver:
“You almost jeopardized my personal relationship. I understand you did it unconsciously, but now at least three, by virtue of their experience, should suspect you of some secrets connected with me. Tsunade and Anko might be off the list, but Tsume … She’s your relative, her trust in you can play against me. You absolutely do not know how to control yourself. With the experience of this woman, she just needs to put pressure on your weaknesses, and you will immediately tell her everything! Akita, do you understand where I’m going with this?
The kunoichi’s eyebrows twitched nervously.
– I … I am not guilty … I really tried, but …
She seemed to be crying, which made Naruto annoyed.
– Girl, do you remember what we came to last time? You know, if I didn’t realize how cowardly you are, I would think that you arranged all this on purpose to be back in my office.
– This is not true! – albeit frightened, but she quickly shook her head: – I didn’t want that! I didn’t want to get involved with all this at all! Why do I have to endure all this ?!
She raised her tone, as if unable to contain her non-use and resentment.
Naruto completely ignored Akita’s protest. Instead, he simply stroked Shizune, kissed her forehead and whispered:
– You can get dressed, I’ll take care of her. Keep notifying everyone on the meeting list, and then I’ll take care of you.
– Ah ~ – the kunoichi moaned, licked her lips and nodded: – I’ll do anything.
“Wonderful.” Shaking his eyebrows, Naruto got up and slowly walked over to the trembling Akita.
Touching the kunoichi’s hair, he grinned ominously.
– And now we’ll chat!
The girl did not even have time to understand what was happening, when suddenly everything around was blurred, and then …
– Aaah! – she screamed and just fell. The world around has changed, the decoration of the office turned into a dense forest and dirty land under the blue sky!
They teleported.
“This jutsu is impressive,” Naruto chuckled cheerfully, looking up at Akita. He received the expected reaction, the girl looked around nervously:
“W-what does that mean?”
“You tell me.” The Hokage’s tone turned cold again. He slowly walked around the girl on the right and, without slowing down, began to walk in a circle:
“You’re giving me trouble Akita. If I don’t do anything, you’ll probably make more trouble. If I don’t take care of you first, Tsume can take care of you. What do you think I should do now?
After these menacing words and his imperious tone, Akita was seriously scared for her life! After all, right now they were in the Forest of Death, a very symbolic place … for digging a grave!
His relationship with Shizune was completely different from the way he behaved with her now. That he forgave all mistakes, but for Akita he seemed to have no justice! Like a predator, the Hokage circled around his prey …
The tension was building …
Akita swallowed and looked at Naruto out of the corner of her eyes.
– T-this … Sir, please, I will be silent … – tears gathered in her frightened eyes. The Hokage walked around like a wild animal, and she was even afraid to get up. The situation is completely out of control! Trusting Shizune, her apology and the words that Naruto would not harm her, she reluctantly agreed to this, realizing that she herself was to some extent to blame, and would finally be able to resolve this misunderstanding. She just couldn’t control herself that time! But Akita was not going to tell anyone the truth! That’s just, Naruto is clearly not one of those who took their word for it … But did she have a choice?
“God … I’m a fool …” – she scolded herself for stupidity, realizing that he would have gotten her anyway, no matter how she ran away. She had a chance if she contacted Tsume, but … Akita realized with a shudder that perhaps it would not have saved her, because he is the Hokage!
“W-what will he do ?! He won’t kill me … will he? ” – Tears ran uncontrollably from the kunoichi’s eyes. She didn’t want to die! Definitely not because of such stupidity! After all, she is not guilty of anything, how can you die for such a thing ?!
Naruto silently stared at the quivering kunoichi, continuing to pierce her with an icy stare. But this is precisely what served to generate even greater fear!
– Why … What did I do ?! – Akita shouted with growing hysteria: – Why don’t you let me go ?! I’m scared! Please stop! It’s not funny anymore!
Even if she saw something that should not have been, this is not a reason to kill for that? Then why was it so scary now and there was a feeling of such terrible injustice?
Akita is really getting angry about it! She’s not to blame …
– Why … – she cried, clenching her fists: – I promised …
Naruto clearly could not be pityed with tears, he was completely indifferent:
– You were wrong Akita, promised to be silent, but in the end aroused unnecessary suspicion. Maybe all of Konoha will soon find out the truth?
– N-no, I would never, – sobbing, she raised trembling eyes: – I didn’t want to, I’m sorry … Don’t hurt me, please …
– Painfully? Naruto raised an eyebrow in surprise. “What are you talking about?” – it seemed that he was very indignant:
– Unlike you, I keep my word! If I said that I would not harm – so it will be, so do not cry. Enough disgrace …
– A? – she blinked in surprise: – How is it … B-but, why are we then …
– Why did we come to the Forest of Death? Hmm, certainly not for what you thought up for yourself! – Naruto looked at the kunoichi with a mocking glance: – I’m too lazy to fuck you, and to kill and even more so, I’m not that petty!
– That’s how, – she wiped away her tears and began to rise: – Then I was mistaken, p-sorry …
She suddenly felt embarrassed … It’s amazing how easily she ignored the words about ****.
“Your apologies are useless, they will not solve the main problem. I’ll deal with Anko myself, but Tsume … It’s your concern now.
