Chapter 71: Team eting
“Kurenai-sensei!” Hinata hurriedly ca to hug the genjutsu mistress who answered in kind.
“It’s been way too long, Hinata.”
“Yes. You know you can visit anyti with Mirai.”
“I know. Ti has just been lacking.”
While they quickly caught up with each other, Riku led the rest of the team to the patio where he served tea. It didn’t take long for Kurenai to join them and sit down on one of the pillows next to Yugao. Kakashi made the effort to put away his icha icha and spoke up.
“Alright. Our team is unusual. Five Jonins gathered together. I suggest we start by deciding who will be the leader and the second in command.”
“How did Team Yukari work until now?” Kurenai wondered aloud. She had heard bits and pieces from Hinata about the team of three Jonins but in the end knew very little about it.
Yugao answered her. “Usually, Hokage-sama designates a leader for each mission. More often than not it’s Kakashi-Taicho because of his experience but recently…”
“Riku was the one to lead.” Kakashi cut in. “I believe it’s because she’s preparing you to succeed her?” He looked at Riku who nodded under Kurenai’s mild surprise.
Riku had been acting Hokage for a month and led Konoha to victory when Akatsuki, Iwa and Kumo attacked, so it wasn’t much of a shock but at the sa ti she believed he was just a candidate. Jiraiya, Kushina and Kakashi himself were way more experienced Shinobis.
“Yes. Before the gathering, she summoned . I am to beco the Rokudai should she fall. Although don’t think that because of this you’re not going to lead this team. Leading as a Hokage and leading as a Jonin are two different things and you are way more experienced in the latter than I am.”
“Everyone agrees, then? Kakashi leads?” Asked Gai and everyone nodded.
“I’ll do my best.” the cyclops announced. “Let’s continue with our strengths and weaknesses then we’ll co up with formations. I’m a ninjutsu specialist. Contrary to popular belief I do not know a thousand jutsus. A bit more than a hundred at most. The sharingan is constantly draining my chakra and its use even more. I’m not too bad with genjutsu with it but I’d rather not waste my chakra like this. Thanks to it I can also make things disappear. It’s an ocular space-ti ninjutsu, however it’s a heavy toll on my chakra reserves. It’s a last resort. I have mastered the five affinities, my natural one being lightning and can summon dogs. They’re mainly used for tracking. My weaknesses are Taijutsu and fight of attrition, my chakra reserves being relatively small for a jonin and constantly drained by the sharingan.”
With Kakashi’s presentation done, Gai followed his example. “No surprise here, I specialize in Taijutsu. Goken to be more specific. What’s less known is that I’m also a bukijutsu specialist. Nunchaku to be exact. My elental affinity is Fire but I also mastered lightning. I also know the eight gates but it’s a last resort. I have a summon contract with the turtle clan. My weaknesses are everything that is not Taijutsu although I’m really good at detecting and breaking out of a genjutsu.”
The next one to go was Kurenai. “I specialize in Genjutsu. I have a natural fire affinity and mastered Earth and also a predilection to yin release which makes ninjutsu difficult for . My greatest weakness is Taijutsu.”
Riku said nothing but inwardly wondered how good she was at genjutsu to have made Jonin. Then again the requirents for becoming Jonin were simple. Strong enough, specialized and with two mastered affinity. She was strong in her own right but would never surpass other Jonins which was fine. Not everyone could be monsters like Gai, Kakashi and Himself and not all jonins were of equal strength.
“I specialize in Kenjutsu. I’m an all rounder. Very good at everything but not the best. I know a bit of iryo-ninjutsu. I’m also a moderate sensor. My main affinity is water and I also mastered fire and earth. My weaknesses is… fuinjutsu.”
That revelation took Gai and Kurenai aback. “Fuinjutsu?”
Kurenai asked with curiosity and surprise. As far as she knew, fuinjutsu was a shinobi art used outside of battle. A support art, nothing more. Gai thought the sa. Their experience of fuinjutsu in battle was limited to exploding tags or the Hiraishin.
“Fuinjutsu is a very difficult art, few understand it and fewer use it but in combat it is devastating.” Yugao glanced at Riku at the corner of her eyes.
Riku took the look she was giving him as a cue to make his introduction. “I specialize in Taijutsu, iryo-ninjutsu and fuinjutsu. I practice both the goken and the iryoken.”
“Healing fist?” Kurenai wondered, tilted her head to the side.
“It’s a mix of the Goken and Jyuken. By hitting soone with my dical chakra I can heal them or make them explode. I basically accelerate their cell division to a point they multiply so fast the body can’t handle it. It’s a Jyuken move with Goken results.” Kurenai winced at the image. “I also know my mother's explosive strength in case the iryoken doesn’t work. I’m a full fledged dic. Everything I can’t heal with the iryoken or a healing tag, I can deal with in an operating room. Wounds or poisons. Regarding fuinjutsu, I’m a master at it. My speciality is space-ti. My main affinity is wind but I mastered them all. Through fuinjutsu I also mastered scorch release and have a good handle of Mokuton.”
“What?!”
Both Gai and Kurenai were dumbfounded by what they heard. They couldn’t be blad, Riku had just announced he could use two elental kekkei genkai as if it was nothing.
“Scorch release?” Kakashi was surprised. He hadn’t known about that.
“Elental kekkei genkai do not exist.” Riku began to explain to his new teammates. “It’s just the ratio of each elent combined is so precise that it’s almost impossible to recreate it. Kekkei genkai users just naturally know the ratio. Fuinjutsu takes care of that problem.” He turned to Kakashi then. “Yes. It’s a recent thing that I wasn’t able to test yet in combat.”
“But why scorch release out of all the elental kekkei genkai?” Yugao wondered.
“Less lethal than the iryo-ken. The target is mummified but not necessarily dead. Most of all it’s not a ss of blood and gore.” Riku’s shoulders sagged. “I can summon slugs and I’m a sage.”
“Hold on!” Gai interrupted. “Are you saying that anyone could use an elental kekkei genkai? Any and all of them?”
“Yes. By applying the correct and proper seals on one’s body, it’s possible. More than that, if you practice enough it will co to a point where you instinctively know how much to mix and won’t use the seals anymore. Mom can now use mokuton without them.”
“It’s an S-rank secret.” Kakashi chid. “Not like that feat can be easily reproduced, so far only this fuinjutsu nerd,” he looked at Riku. “Succeeded in doing it. Still that knowledge could be disastrous if out in the open.”
Yugao added her own piece. “At this point, anything that Riku says is probably an S-rank secret. Keep that in mind.”
“Are you two done trying to embarrass or can I finish my introduction?” He sent them both a glare.
“Mah, Mah, we’re just telling it how it is.” Kakshi waved his hand lazily at him. “Go on.”
“Because I’m a sage, I'm a really good sensor and my range is around 5 miles at best. My weaknesses are bukijutsu and genjutsu and in so asure, ninjutsu.”
“With our personal introduction done, it’s ti to introduce you to Team Yukari’s special base and gear.” Kakashi gave a look at Riku who took out the Botib on the patio and invited everyone inside.
The experience of the botib had been quite mind blowing to Gai and Kurenai. The latter had known from Hinata but couldn’t really imagine what she had under her very eyes.
“That’s my personal base. A military one would be vastly different and less…. Spacious.” Riku told them and gave them a tour of the first floor.
He showed them the training room first and warned of what would happen if a wall was damaged.
“I’m thinking of putting a barrier on them to make them sturdier which would allow a more destructive training.”
Then he showed them the infirmary and the armory.
“Every Botib has the sa configuration. Kitchen at the back, Infirmary on the right, Training room on the left and Armory in the corner.”
“That reminds of the bunker under the village.” Gai pointed out.
“I created it with uniformity in mind. Anbu are already familiar with the layout of a regular botib and I wanted them to be able to easily find their way and herd the people in case of the bunker being needed.”
“What do those seals do?” Kurenai pointed at two huge seals on opposite walls. Both were so complex and extensive. One could only see here and there the brown color of the wood they were written on.
“The one on the left is the hiraishin seal. That makes think…”
Riku pulled out his book of seals and took out two bracelets. Gai and Kurenai received one each.
“It’s your escape strategy. You put a drop of chakra in it and you’re teleported back here in front of the seal. You need a drop of blood to key the bracelet to you and another to key yourself to the seal on the wall.”
“Neat.” Gai bit his thumb and let so blood drop on the bracelet which was absorbed and disappeared from sight. Riku put his hand next to a circle on the wall and Gai added his blood there too. Kurenai followed suit.
“Now the other seal is a ti seal. It controls the speed of the ti in the whole botib. It can either accelerate or decelerate ti. One year here could be one second outside. Inversely, one year outside could be one second here.”
That revelation shocked them to the core.
“Keep in mind that you’re aging. While that seal allows you to heal quickly and go back to the field in a blink of an eye for the people outside, you still go through the natural healing period.”
“If I spend a decade here but only a second passes outside…” Kurenai began understanding what Kakashi was saying.
“Yes. It’s not to be abused.” He looked at Riku who frowned.
“I’m not using it that much. Every ti was for a good reason.”
“It’s a slippery slope.” Kakashi reminded him.
“How much did you use it?” Gai wondered.
“I’m supposed to be twenty in two months but I’m closer to twenty one.”
“I see.”
“Now that we’re done with the tour, here’s the fun part.” Kakashi invited his new teammates to the armory. “Everything here is the best of the best. From armors, to Kunai, to tags. Everything that cos from here ends in the Anbu.”
“You’re sound so proud it almost sounds like it’s because of you.” Riku deadpanned.
“Mah, Mah, we’re teammates, we share the credit.” Yugao had to restrain Riku from pumling Kakashi when he gave everyone his eye smile.
Bit by bit, Riku introduced everything to Gai and Kurenai. What the armors could do, what they couldn’t, sa for the weapons. Tags were a whole other thing.
“When did you have the ti to… Nevermind.” Yugao shook her head when Riku pulled out a book listing every tag in the armory, what they could do, their utilisations instructions and the warnings coming with them.
From the simple flashband tag to the EMS one Gai and Kurenai were baffled. They understood now, partially how fuinjutsu could be devastating during a battle.
“I can really channel any elents in this kunai through the seal?” Kurenai wondered, turning a kunai she had in hand.
“Depending on which part of the seal you channel chakra into, yes.”
“What could be the utility of channeling water or earth?” Gai wondered.
“Water? For cutting. High pressure water cuts better than wind actually. Earth makes the kunai sturdier. Of course it can simply be for the elent advantage.”
Riku handed an empty book of seal to Gai and Kurenai so they could pick whatever they needed and prepare themselves at ho. Once they made their choices, the team left the botib. Yugao reminded everyone they were supposed to leave the following morning at dawn.
Riku invited her to stay the night as she didn’t have a family to spend her last night in the village with but she declined.
“I’m hanging with Anko and Hana. I’m not that alone, Riku.” She smiled teasingly.
“Excuse if I want my big-sister figure always by my side.” he huffed and got a kiss on the cheek before she shushined away.
Getting back inside Senju Manor he went to help Hinata with lunch in the kitchen. She politely declined, having fun by herself and when Riku embraced her from behind, she turned her head for a loving kiss before threatening him with a well placed Juken strike if he didn’t let her cook alone.
“Why don’t you spend so ti with the girls? Hanabi could use so help with them.”
“Fine but we’re spending ti together, just the two of us, later.”
“I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Hinata began to rub her ass against Riku’s groin to tease him. “Now go.”
“It’s not what I had in mind.” he replied, grabbing her covered breasts and began to play with them. “I was more thinking of spending ti together normally but if that’s what my moon princess wishes, who am I to deny her?”
He kissed her neck and released her. His daughters and Hanabi were in the play room. The Hyuga heiress was making faces at her nieces. Riku found it hilarious. While Hanabi was quite the firecracker she was first and foremost a Hyuga with a noble attitude. Seeing her childish like that amused him greatly.
“Practicing for the ti you and Konohamaru have so of your own?” He teased, making his presence known.
Hanabi frowned. “I’m not interested in that stupid monkey-boy.”
“I never talk about being interested. Arranged marriages still happen,” he smirked. “Interesting that it was the first thing that ca to mind.” He laid down on his side next to Hitomi and Toka who were apparently having a conversation in baby talk.
“How Hinata-nee-sama could fall in love with you is a mystery to .”
“You could really work on your deflecting skills. And she fell in love with because I always believed in her and did my very best to support her in everything she needed and wanted.” That made Hanabi frown more. “Co on. Konohamaru is just immature. He’ll grow out of it with ti and experience in life. Like most boys do when they beco n. When that happens, you will regret it if you didn’t give him a chance before. Another girl is going to snatch him away.”
“I don’t like him.” Hanabi persisted.
“You don’t like him now. But in a few years?” She felt silent and pondered the question. “Look at Ino and I. I despised her imnsely when we were kids. She was an Uchiha fangirl and didn’t take her training as a kunoichi seriously. Even the look of her… I couldn’t stand it. And now? She’s-”
“A strong kunoichi in her own right.” Both Riku and Hanabi turned their heads to look at Ino leaning against the door fra. “Obsessed with only her very handso and sexy husband while being very sexy herself.”
She gave Riku a aningful smile and walked to him, settling down to his right and facing Hanabi.
“Puberty is the ti when people change the most. I’m sure you've already noticed Konohamaru being different from your ti at the academy.”
“Why does everyone want to date him?!”
“We don’t. We’re just teasing.” Riku replied.
“Everyone can see you like him a bit. Nothing wrong with that. Life is short for a shinobi, Hanabi. Now that we’re at war it’s even shorter.” Ino added.
“But he’s so childish! He’s so infuriating!” cracks began to appear in the Hyuga’s denial.
“Boys and n alike tend to do that.”
“I didn’t.”
“Riku, you’re the worst of them all.” Ino gave him a deadpan look. “I spent years trying to get you. Every refusal, every rejection when you kept on undressing with your eyes nearly drove mad.”
“I…” He didn’t know what to say. He ended up saying nothing because Ino put her lips on his.
“It’s fine. That just made want you even more.” She turned to Hanabi. “It’s fine if you don’t go after Konohamru, Hanabi. Just don’t live with regrets.”
The girl nodded and picked up Hitomi in her arms. The toddler had raised her tiny hands to her aunt for a pick up while Toka simply fell asleep on the tatami.
Hinata called for lunch and Riku put his daughters in their crib.
“I thought you would already be gone.” Ino comnted, chewing on so tuna.
“Tomorrow at dawn. I’m leaving to deal with Iwa.” Riku answered. “Did you receive your orders?” He looked at everyone.
“Not yet but I will probably be sent West too. The Jyuken is useless against undead,” Hanabi replied.
“Team 10 is on standby. We’re experts in capturing targets.” was Ino’s answer.
“So paralysis tags could be applied on them. Good strategy. I would have seen you in the comm departnt though.”
“If you hadn’t revolutionized communication with your seals I may have been sent to work there.”
Ino’s tone wasn’t reproachful. If anything she was glad because now she would fight with Choji and Shikamaru.
“I’m working at the hospital for triage. With the Jyuken I can help greatly in decreasing the mortality rate. I suppose all mbers of my clans in the program would do the sa.” Hinata revealed as she entered the room.
“What about Karin?” Ino inquired.
“I suppose, fuinjutsu duties. With out of the village, that leaves only her and Kushina as seal mistresses. Soone has to keep the barrier up and intervene if there is a seal problem. She’s also a jinchuriki so a target. Had she been a fighter, mom may have let her go but I’m not sure about that.”
Anything related to the war stopped being discussed here and there. When lunch was over, Hanabi left for the Hyuga compound. Riku took Ino and Hinata to the botib and ard them as much as he could. Original content can be found at NoveIꜰire
“I’d rather you have anything to protect yourself than not. Just in case.” he argued when Hinata assured him she didn’t need anything as she worked at the hospital. Ino, for her part, had her gear ready. Both relented when riku made his argunt. If only to give him so peace of mind.
After spending the afternoon, simply cuddling in the garden, Riku made dinner. Tsunade had co ho cooing at Kamiko in her arms, Karin looking exhausted at her side. When it was ti for bed, Riku made nine shadow clones. Nobody knew who was the real one and didn’t care. Hinata picked one and went to her room hand in hand with her husband. Ino, greedy as always, took the most. Seven in total. Everyone present shook their heads at the lustful grin the blond had on her face.
“That girl… I swear she has lust in her veins, not blood.” Tsunade comnted as one Riku dragged her away to her room while the last one of him carried a dead on her feet Karin.
The mont they were alone, Riku pressed her back against the wall, his hands already tugging open the front of her robe. Her massive breasts spilled free, creamy skin gleaming in the warm light. She cupped them in her hands, smirking down at him. “You want these, don’t you?”
Her robe fell completely away, the heavy fabric pooling at her feet. The sheer size and weight of her breasts made her chest sway slightly with each breath, the skin taut and smooth, flushed faintly with heat. Riku’s gaze was locked on them, his cock thick and hard enough that the flushed crown glistened already with a bead of precum. She stepped close enough for the heat of him to radiate against her belly, then knelt slowly, deliberately, her thighs brushing the backs of his legs as she descended.
The mont her hands wrapped around him, he felt the contrast—her palms warm but slightly firr, her breasts impossibly soft, their heavy weight yielding and closing around his length. She pressed them together, creating a hot, silky channel that hugged him from base to tip. The movent was slow at first, her chest sliding upward to expose the head before gliding back down until his entire shaft was buried between the pillowy swells.
She leaned forward, lips sealing around the crown, tongue swirling over the sensitive ridge. The suction was perfect—wet, hot, and relentless—while the firm pressure of her breasts milked the rest of his length. Every ti she lifted, the slick warmth of her mouth chased upward; every ti she pressed down, her tits squeezed him until his knees went taut.
“Mmmhh… ffuuhh… ahhnn,” she breathed around him, her moans vibrating along his cock and making the veins throb. The heat of her saliva mixed with the creamy pressure of her breasts until the sensation blurred into one overwhelming rush. His hips flexed instinctively, pushing deeper into the tunnel of soft skin and wet mouth until the pressure inside him snapped.
He groaned, spilling hot, thick streams over her tongue. She swallowed greedily, throat working in quick gulps, the muscles fluttering around him until the last drop was gone. She licked the head clean, sucking gently one last ti before letting him slip free with a lewd pop.
Riku hauled her upright, guiding her toward the bed. The bedding was still faintly warm from earlier in the night, the smooth cotton whispering under her skin as she sat back. He slid between her knees, bent to taste her—but she caught his hair in one firm hand, nails grazing his scalp.
“Not tonight,” she murmured, her eyes half-lidded with hunger. “I want to feel you.”
She climbed over him, the muscles in her thighs flexing as she lowered herself. The fat head of his cock parted her folds, the heat inside her like molten silk as she sank down slowly, stretching to take every inch. The tight grip of her walls molded around him until she was seated fully on his hips, both of them breathing harder from the pressure and the sheer heat of it.
Leaning forward, she pressed her heavy breasts to his face. “Suck,” she whispered, and he latched onto one nipple instantly. The skin was soft and warm, the areola thick between his lips. A faint ripple of chakra moved through her, and suddenly sweet, warm milk spilled into his mouth. He groaned, drinking in long pulls, the flavor rich and almost intoxicating.
Her hips began to move, a slow, deliberate grind that made her inner walls massage him while her breasts bounced gently against his face. Each downward roll pressed him deep, making the thick length rub over that spot inside her that sent tingles racing up her spine. His hands gripped her hips, feeling the tautness of her muscles as she rose and fell, and then one hand slid lower, cupping her ass. The slap he gave her was sharp and ringing, the sting blooming hot against her skin before his palm rubbed over the curve.
Another slap followed, harder this ti, and she clenched around him with a startled gasp. The sensations piled up—his mouth tugging at her nipple, the sweet rush of milk leaving her, the steady filling stretch of his cock inside her—until she slamd herself down hard on his thighs, grinding in tight circles as her orgasm broke. She shuddered, nails digging into his shoulders, moaning low and throaty while her body clenched around him in rhythmic waves.
Riku shifted them without pulling out, rolling until she lay on her side and he was spooned against her back. His thrusts were slower now, long and deep, each one drawing a low moan from her throat. His mouth traced her shoulder, the scrape of teeth followed by soft kisses along the slope of her neck. She turned her head, eting him in a deep, wet kiss, their tongues sliding together in slow, deliberate strokes.
When they parted, his hand ca up to cup her breast, squeezing until milk welled up at the nipple. He leaned forward to drink again, the warm trickle coating his tongue before he pulled back and offered it to her. Tsunade bent her head, closing her lips over herself, sucking until her cheeks hollowed, then Riku joined her, both of them drinking before their mouths t again. This ti, the kiss was milk-sweet and ssy, tongues tangling until their breaths grew ragged.
When she broke away, her smile was faint but hungry. “Faster. And I want you behind .”
She moved onto her hands and knees, her breasts swaying with the shift. The wet heat of her core clenched as he slid into her from behind, his hips pressing hard to hers. His hands explored the curve of her ass before delivering a sharp, echoing smack that made her yelp and then moan.
“Harder!” she demanded, voice breaking on a gasp. He reached forward, undoing her twin pigtails, letting her hair spill loose before gathering it into one thick ponytail. Wrapping it tight around his fist, he used it to pull her back into each pounding thrust. Her breasts swung wildly beneath her, heavy and leaking, droplets spattering the sheets as his cock drove into her over and over, the sound of their bodies eting loud and wet in the air.
The angle hit deep, grinding against her inner walls until she clenched around him again, a cry tearing from her throat as she ca. His own release followed hard, a hot flood spilling deep inside her in pulsing bursts.
She collapsed forward onto the bed, her skin damp with sweat and her hair sticking in strands to her cheeks. He leaned over her, their chests pressed together lightly. When she turned her head, eyes soft and lips parted, he kissed her—slow, tender, their breaths mingling.
After, she pushed him back for a mont to breathe, then rolled onto her back, spreading her legs wide. The invitation was clear.
Riku’s chakra flared faintly, and his cock surged back to full hardness in seconds. He sank into her slowly, the hot clutch of her folds wrapping tight around him, the slickness drawing a groan from his throat. He lowered his mouth to her breasts, kissing and nipping along the curve, tasting the faint salt of sweat before she locked her legs around his waist.
Her hands cradled his head, pulling him up until their eyes locked. “I love you,” she said, voice rich and sure.
“I love you too,” he murmured, holding her gaze.
And then he began to move again, slow and deep, each stroke deliberate, the sensation of her tight, wet heat and the closeness of their bodies making every second stretch long and full, as if the rest of the night could be held there forever.
