After several minutes of obvious flirting from Sumire, much to her dismay, nothing happened...
No matter how hard she tried, Naruto didn't budge like that, and since she couldn't pull anymore, because it would look strange, she ended up having to fully dress.
"What's wrong with him...?"
He stared so lustfully, but as a result, he didn't even touch it! For a normal girl, this was no different from a real insult, especially after so many efforts and signs.
Sumire didn't believe he didn't understand. She literally hinted at it with her whole appearance! A cunning and intelligent person like him simply couldn't be that blind.
And anyway, since when did he ask permission? He always took what he wanted!
If you didn't do anything, it was only because you didn't want to! But what about his eyes then?
Sumire didn't know what to think... She started to blame herself...
With a slight displeasure in her heart, she turned around and stood before him in all her equipment, the very one she used during the hunt for the "dark chakra".
Sumire looked damn hot...
Loose hair, a light purple shirt held together with a beige belt, and a completely bare back.
Slim and sexy...
The shirt perfectly described all her curves, and the scarlet Gezzo Tenno mark on the back gave her a "dangerous" charm. Although, simple pants, as well as a lot of bandages on his arms and legs, did not look good ...
Naruto was going to fix it.
Actually, he wanted to give Sumire a chance to take care of it herself. After all, with her future "job", she definitely needed to wear something "appropriate", and since Naruto found it quite arousing, he also wanted her to dress "tastefully".
"Hmm, I didn't put a seal on it"
Thinking about it, he frowned slightly.
In fact, some of his women wore different marks on their bodies, but their properties were not too different.
He didn't have a chance to put one on Sumire, so...
"Doesn't matter... It can wait for now..."
The Hokage wanted to "mark" everyone, perhaps even according to their "value"...
Mm?~
The frequently changing expression on the pensive Hokage's face slightly worried Sumire...
Wearing these clothes after everything "happened" between them, and even after so much time, was, to put it mildly, strange, and he also behaved suspiciously ...
"He's He's not angry, is he?"
Unpleasant memories spoiled the whole mood. Sumire could be brave, but she was too far from Shizune, so she hadn't snapped yet. However, this is also a matter of time ... The main reason was reduced only to her character, and put her unwillingness in front of him in a bad light. But the main question remained unresolved...
"What was he up to?"
There was a lot of pressure on Sumire, especially his strange look and this tense silence. He appreciated her, but not like before ...
And finally...
Not bad... It suits you. Naruto smiled, which immediately relieved her of unnecessary excitement:
- In the future, we will change something, but for now, put on this ...
- AND?
He suddenly pulled out a strange piece of cloth from his pocket and threw it to Sumire with a slight movement.
She caught him, but...
- Hm? Unfolding the package, Sumire furrowed her small eyebrows in bewilderment.
- What is it? - although she guessed, but this question had a different meaning, and of course Naruto understood everything, and therefore, explained:
You need to hide your face. It's not necessary, but it might help" He paused slightly, grinning slyly.
- It will be easier for you. By speaking, the mask helps people discover their true self and become much more courageous.
- Um...
Sumire held the mask in her hands and frowned in bewilderment. A common thing for a ninja - it was no different from the one worn by Kakashi.
But, Sumire could not understand why... However, Naruto was in no hurry to go into details and explain. In his opinion, for such a "case", it was necessary to prepare her mentally. Plus, he was enjoying the whole situation, so he couldn't refuse himself a little "game."
He quickly pushed aside thoughts of "marks" and focused on the essentials:
"Now, you will be relieved of your genin duties under Hanabi.
"Wh-what?" Sumire stared at his face in surprise, "How is it?"
Those words mattered a lot, especially when the Hokage himself spoke them! He literally influenced her future. Sumire's surprised reaction was understandable, but he didn't seem to care...
- What's happened? Are you against?
"I N-no But, why?"
It wasn't that Sumire was too worried about this, but tying the mask in her hands and his words... It's definitely not an easy task! Then those clothes...
Sumire immediately realized that he was going to let her in on something important! Realizing this, she couldn't help but rejoice...
Command? At that moment, it faded into the background. They may have become friends, but if their loss would help her be with him...
"Don't worry... Hanabi is having her 'special days' now and she has enough problems..." Naruto chuckled playfully, interrupting all Sumire's fantasies.
He knew a lot, even about how this Hyuga princess shied away from her duties, and didn't care about the genin team at all. They even visited her themselves, but that didn't really help... She continued to hide.
In fact, even Kakashi did not allow himself such an attitude towards students in his time, when he taught the seventh team. So if the Hokage took this seriously, Hanabi might lose her duties.
But Naruto pulled...
He roughly understood the reason for Hanabi's actions, but Sumire didn't need to know that. Now it doesn't matter at all.
Therefore, without dwelling on what was said, the Hokage continued:
"Since your team is not active at the moment, and I'll deal with Hanabi later, I decided to give you a little special "Job." With a grin, he did not reveal his cards, but continued to play with her:
This "job" may surprise you a little or even scare you... But, in my opinion, you coped with it. Among all my "acquaintances", you, Sumire, have the highest chance of doing everything perfectly. Moreover... Unlike them, I have complete confidence in you.
Naruto smiled reassuringly, remembering to both press and caress her. He understood well how Sumire thinks, so he played with her in any way he wanted.
In the end, as expected, as soon as she heard his words, Sumire's eyes immediately sparkled with joy. Not so much from what was said, but from this good opportunity. She didn't care what the job was, what was more important was his attitude and trust! All this time she was looking for a way and now, he finally appeared right in front of her! How could she miss such an opportunity? No matter what he said next, Sumire didn't even doubt her decision...
