Naruto had no clue who the fourth kunoichi could be. Her voice was pretty much an unfamiliar sound in his head. "Oi! Get off of him and change into something decent like the rest of us!" exclaimed Ino in an annoyed tone.
"Naruto-kun's never objected to what I wore in the past! It's so refreshing from the stiff dress code back at the compound. You felt the same way too... right, onee-chan?" Naruto felt the kunoichi behind him release her grip.
"That's an irrelevant point, Hanabi. Until Naruto-kun feels more comfortable and is more aware of what's going on, you should present yourself in the appropriate manner," said Hinata. As she spoke, Naruto turned around to look at the latest arrival to the group.
The girl wasn't as fully developed as the other kunoichi but she looked gorgeous for her young age. She was dressed in a white t-shirt that was large enough to cover her entire top half of her body and a small part of the bottom half. Naruto's eyes found themselves wondering to her exposed legs, which looked soft and feminine and were rich in skin colour. Her silky dark hair was long and hung down. Hyuuga Hanabi noticed Naruto's look and proceeded to give a sexy pose and a wink. "Like what you see?"
At that moment, blood started to leak out of the shinobi's nostrils. "Uh... excuse me!" Naruto ran back upstairs to the bathroom.
The four kunoichi were silent for several seconds with the only noise coming from upstairs with the sink running. "That was... strange," commented Hinata.
Sakura nodded in agreement. "Tell me about it. For a guy who invented the Sexy no Jutsu and who trained under the biggest known pervert in the world, he got riled up a little too easily."
"Er... yes. But I was more referring to how he reacted to Hanabi and that nosebleed. The wound didn't heal itself quickly, meaning that there may be something wrong with Naruto's tenant."
Ino crossed her arms in thought. "Is it because of the amount of power Naruto exerted to break the Sharingan illusion? Maybe Kyuubi's still resting itself and has no time to repair a small wound."
Hinata sighed softly. "Maybe I'm overreacting a bit. Hanabi, go get dressed into something more appropriate before you sit down for breakfast."
**********
'So this Ultimate Force thing turned out to be real after all.' Naruto couldn't help but feel bothered at that. He didn't want women to love him because of divine influence. If he was going to earn the affection of a woman, he would prefer to let things come naturally.
From his observations of the four kunoichi currently sharing the same household as him, they all acted pretty natural to him. He couldn't pick up any traces of forced behaviour. So how did things come to be? That was the main question bothering him.
"Before we start... what is the last thing you remember clearly, Naruto-kun?" The group of five were sitting in the living room on comfortable black leather couches. Hanabi was now dressed in her black kunoichi outfit consisting of a black sleeveless top and tight combat shorts which hugged her thighs. A small weapon pouch was attached on her left leg.
"Orochimaru... I remember fighting Orochimaru and he kept saying stuff. It's a bit of a blur but by the way he sounded, he talked about Sasuke as though he belonged to him." He omitted the whole visit to the attractive woman and the Ultimate Force thing for obvious purposes.
The four kunoichi all sighed mentally. This could take a while.
