Yugao Joins and New Mission

Dawn approached and Shiki and Yugao stirred awake and looked at each other with smiles.

"Well, from how good that was, my maidenly fantasies might have caused me to drop a couple of spots~" Yugao teased.

She was implying that Shiki had already gotten plenty of "training" in the bedroom arts.

"No worries Yu! I don't care much for spots anyway." Shiki smugly replied, earning him a punch in the ribs

"Ouch!" He said despite not being hurt in the slightest.

"Hmph! That's what you get!" Yugao coquettishly exclaimed.

After a bit more of flirty back and forth, it was time to move onto other matters. Now that Yugao's relationship with Shiki had become intimate and official it was time to bring her to Tsunade's location and make the offer of becoming the village's Hidden Kage, in charge of its underworld.

Naturally, before that, Shiki was fully intent on giving Yugao the enhancement package that all members of Mugetsu were entitled to and show her his operation as well. Only after that would he bring her to Tsunade and formally offer her the position of Hidden Hokage.

After Shiki showed her around and had her enter the strengthening chambers, he faced her and asked.

"So, Yu! What do you think of my little operation?"

Yugao looked at him as if fulminating Shiki with her sight.

'LITTLE!? What part of this is little!? Not only does he have a sprawling criminal organization involved in all kinds of things that can never be known, the "enhancement package" he just gave me is something ridiculous.'

'According to the knowledge instilled into me in the chamber, which in and of itself is something ridiculous, not only has my strength drastically increased, I also became extremely hard to kill and even my lifespan has increased to the point I don't know if I'll ever die . . .'

Clearly, Yugao had been more than impressed to the point she was utterly shocked and almost couldn't believe what had happened.

'I can't believe Shiki had been doing this under everyone's nose for so long . . . Has he betrayed the village? Even if that's that case . . . Will I even be willing to reveal this if I didn't have that Soul Contract restricting me?'

'No, I wouldn't . . . Even if I refused to help him work against the village's interests, I never would be able to sell him out, much less directly go against him . . . Little bastard! Why do I love you so much?' Yugao started feeling complicated.

Shiki could sense what Yugao's thoughts were but rather than explaining himself, he just hid a mischeveous smile while leading Yugao to Tsunade's location.

'Hehehe. Yu's reaction when she sees Tsuna-nee ought to be quite amusing.' He deviously thought.

A few moments later, the two of them were nearing the laboratories.

'He has already shown me to this place, it's the laboratories. Why are we going back here?' Yugao wondered with suspicion.

"Get ready for a huge surprise Yu." Shiki warned as he led her deeper into the lab facilities.

Still, nothing could have prepared her for what happened next . . .

In the same room, four people were hard at work . . . Four people that Yugao recognised but didn't at all expect to see here . . . Or even together for that matter.

In fact, the obvious truth that those four people were working together was almost enough to supersede the shock Yugao felt by just seeing all of them in Shiki's operation.

'. . . He's not doing anything behind the village's back . . . The fucking Hokage-sama is actually working in his lab with Shizune-san assisting her as always!'

At that instance Yugao realized how wrong herr previous assumptions were. And from the maddening expression on Shiki's face, not only had he realised her thoughts, but he also used them mess with her.

This motherfu-' She thought.

However, the most surprising thing of all, was the fact that the damn snake, Orochimaru and his loyal fuckboi Kabuto, were not only here as well but also working in conjunction with the previous two people.

'How can this be!?' Yugao screamed in her mind.

Her thoughts were a complete and utter mess and she was totally clueless on what to make of what she had learned today.

Shiki then called Tsunade who, seeing who had brought with him, immediately realized what was going on and together with her lover, sought to properly explain the situation to the purple haired kunoichi so as to make the offer both of them were planning to make to her.

It took a considerable amount of time to make everything about their current situation clear to Yugao. That Fact that Tsunade was actually his mani wife and manager of the harem he had created was an even greater shock than seeing Orochimaru work for him.

After all the explanations though, Yugao honestly accepted the position of Hidden Hokage without any trouble or need for convincing and thus, Konoha finally fully joined his system.

Yugao needed to familiarize herself with her new position so she excused herself with Shiki advising her to seek out Fubuki since her positions in their respective villages was the same and the Yukigakure kunoichi already had some hands on experience.

Tsunade returned to her research. truth be told, the research into the White Zetsu subjects was not only challenging and mind boggling but also incredibly rewarding and even fun for all parties involved so she was raring to get back into it.

Shiki on the other hand, leaving his matters of research and training to his soul clones, was planning on starting his work with Madara's soul but it seemed that fate had other plans.

The soul clone of Tsunade that was fulfilling her obligations as the Hokage had received commands from Shiki to immediately inform him, should some specific missions become available and save them for himself . . .

At this time, one such mission was put forth and so, Shiki decided to postpone his project with Madara's soul, which was not that urgent and instead, turn his attention onto said mission.

This mission was form on of the original series' filler arcs and was the removal of the Kurozuki Family from a town they were occupying while oppressing the villagers.

It was during this mission that a doujutsu possessor, Ranmaru and his companion, a former member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist and wielder of the lightning twin swords Kiba were encountered by Naruto.

'This probably means that the other filler arc missions I am waiting for will come along soon, so I better not start my business with madara's soul until they're dealt with . . .' Shiki thought.

'For this particular mission though, I'll need no time at all. Unlike in the original series where they needed to go in a roundabout way instead of just dealing with all of them and even showing mercy to one of the members and Ranmaru, I plan to be much more . . . Efficient.'

In other words, Shiki was planning on ruthlessly slaughter them all and taking their souls and Kiba along the way.

'Ranmaru's soul and Kiba are really the only things I want from this mission. The first one is actually useful for me as for the second . . .'

'I can actually produce better weapons without too much effort but they will be a nice way to establish good relations with Kiri later. If I kill Kisame and steal his Samehada too, even better.'

A few minutes later, Shiki was watching the Kurosuki Family's base from high ground.

'Hmm . . . So long as I give a little help to the villagers in the reconstruction, the will probably forgive me for destroying that building right?'

The base was in fact a building that was quite important to the village was was only occupied and fortified by the occupying gang. Shiki was planning on using jutsu to build a better one for the villagers after the current one is destroyed.

Why would he care? Someone might ask. He would indeed since he didn't want any blemishes on his reputation as Shiki, who was supposed to be a Paragon of justice and goodness.

'Right then . . . I'll kill then all in one fell swoop.' Shiki declared in his mind before unleashing a combination jutsu of his own creation.

'Hijutsu: Five Elements Dragon Song'

The jutsu manifested several dragons made of each of the five basic nature transformations. Each of them could act independently until their energy ran out and even combine for extra power.

Their speed of the lightning dragon was the greatest and it instantly crashed down on the building, completely destroying it and killing all the occupants except for one, Raiga.

His instinctive action of using Kiba to shield himself in the nick of time barely saved his life even if he was still put out of commission. Still, only a step behind, the other elemental dragons crashed down of the ruined building, utterly erasing any trace of it or its previous occupants.

Collecting the souls and the twin blades that were blown pretty far, Shiki went to report to the villagers that the Kurosuki Family was wiped out, following that, he helped them rebuild their village with his jutsu causing them to thank him profusely and raising his reptation a bit more.

Now, all that was left to do, was report back to the village to mark the official end of the mission.
