"Mikoto, stop running!"
Kushina yelled in frustration. Mikoto had dodged all her attacks; Kushina couldn't nd a si.
"Why would I fight you head-on? I'm not that stupid," Mikoto said, shaking her head.
She put some distaweehen unleashed a Fireball Jutsu.
"Water Style: Water Wall!"
Kushina tered with a Water Wall, then quickly closed the distance.
She used her monstrous strength to punch Mikoto, but it was just a Shadow e. Another miss. Kushina was frustrated.
"Shin-nii, who do you think will win?" Konan asked curiously.
"Probably her."
Shin observed their fight.
In a direct frontation, Kushina would win, but Mikoto wouldn't fight her head-on.
And Mikoto couldn't nd a sneak atta Kushiher. Kushina was too alert.
But if they tinued fighting, Kushina would eventually win. She had more Chakra and stamina.
"Mikoto, what's the point of dodging all the time?"
Kushina stopped attag and pined.
"I don't want to get hit by you, Kushina. I'd end up in the hospital."
Mikoto also stopped, but she kept her distance, wary of a surprise attack.
"Mikoto, yuarding against me? I'm so disappointed. Do you really think I'd resort to sneak attacks?" Kushina said dramatically.
Mikoto thought for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, Kushina, that's exactly what I think."
"Ouch. Kushina, your reputation isn't very good," Shin chuckled.
Even Konan giggled.
"Shut up, or I'll hit you!" Kushina threatened Shin.
Shin wisely shut his mouth. He didn't want to be on the receiving end of Kushina's wrath.
"Mikoto, take this!"
Kushina suddenly threw a Kunai, grazing Mikoto's clothes.
"You lost, Mikoto!" Kushina said with a grin.
It was just a graze, but Mikoto uood the message. If Kushina had wao, she could have injured her.
"Kushina, that was a sneak attack!"
Mikoto hadn't been paying attention. Shin's interruption had distracted her, and Kushina had seized the opportunity.
"It was, but you were careless, Mikoto. sider this a lesson."
Kushina said.
"I trusted you because we're friends. I'm so disappointed." Mikoto shook her head sadly.
"Okay, let's go home. It's getting te," Shin said.
The sun was about to set.
"Mikoto, don't fet, I won this time."
"Fine, you win. But you'll lose ime," Mikoto said, a bit frustrated. She wouldn't have lost if she hadn't been distracted.
Back at the house, Shio his room and started refining Chakra.
Kushina, Mikoto, and Konan also went to their rooms to train.
...
"System, why haven't you issued any missions tely?"
Shin asked after refining Chakra for a while.
He only had the mission to help Konoha win the war, which wasn't plete yet. Did he have to finish that mission before receiving another one?
"Missions are random," the System replied.
"Fine."
Without any missions, Shin had nothing to do. He couldn't improve his strength without the System's help, at least not in the short term.
But he wasn't in a hurry. He was already strong enough. And the Fourth Shinobi World War was still far off. As long as he reached Six Paths level before then, it would be enough.
But he was ambitious. He wao surpass Six Paths level. With the System's help, it might be possible.
He was only eleven and already had strength beyond that of a Kage.
Surpassing Six Paths level might not be that difficult.
As he was thinking about this, his door suddenly opened. He looked up and saw Kushina.
"Kushina, what are you doing here?"
"I, uh... I'm scared to sleep alone... I sleep with you?" Kushina blushed, avoiding his gaze.
Shin was surprised. Scared? That robably an excuse. But he wasn't going to say that.
"Well, if you're scared, I 't refuse." Shin put on a relut expression, though inwardly, he was happy.
Kushina rolled her eyes, then y dowo him.
...
The m, Mikoto woke up early as usual and prepared breakfast. After finishing, she woke up Konan and told her to eat first, theo wake up Shin and Kushina.
She went to Kushina's room first, but Kushina wasn't there. Mikoto felt a sense of unease. She went to Shin's room.
Shin didn't usually lock his door. Mikoto ope and saw Shin and Kushina sleeping together.
"What's going on here?"
Mikoto's expression darkened.
Shin was already awake, and Kushina, hearing Mikoto's voice, also woke up, rubbing her eyes.
"You two slept together st night?"
Mikoto asked again, her gaze fixed on them.
"Kushina was scared to sleep alone, so she came here. I thought I should be a gentleman and fort her," Shin expined, coughing awkwardly.
Kushina nodded. "That's right."
Mikoto scoffed. That excuse was ridiculous.
