Hidden Emperor Of The Naruto World

Chapter 15 - Emotions are a pain in the ass

Arriving in the center of the compound, they entered a traditional house. It was not necessarily bigger than others, proving the fact that Hashirama and Mito were humble people, and found no joy in ostentation.

"Nawaki, is that you?" A young woman's voice carried on from a nearby room, with the sound of the cooking instruments.

"Yeah it's me nee-chan, I brought Kushina friends too" Answered Nawaki, leading us to the owner of the voice.

Entering the kitchen, they saw a beautiful fair-skinned woman of curvaceous frame with above-average height and noticeably large b.r.e.a.s.ts, with brown eyes and straight blonde hair that parts over her forehead. Her hair has shoulder-length bangs that frame her face and the rest reaches her lower back. She wore them in a high ponytail. She wore a grey mesh shirt and over it a teal-colored kimono with short sleeves and red-lining around the collars which she secured with a blue sash. She has red nail polish on both her fingernails and toenails and uses a soft pink lipstick. She wears a necklace, which Minato recognized as the First Hokage's necklace.

"So you're little Kushi-chan friends" She was looking at them curiously and seeing Kushina sleeping, she smiled softly. Taking her from Minato arms, she asked Nawaki to bring them to the living room while she went to tuck Kushina in.

Entering the living room, there were only some cushions on the floor surrounding a table. 'F.u.c.k, I truly miss my sofa. What is their deal with sitting on the floor in seiza position, do they not know how to be comfortable even at home, sigh...' Minato grumbled but sat nonetheless. The atmosphere quickly warmed up, with Mikoto and Tsume a bit more relaxed now that they saw Kushina, and they began chatting softly, for fear of waking up Kushina even if there was no way that her room's walls were not soundproof.

Meanwhile, Nawaki was fidgeting, sneaking glances at Mikoto while blushing. Catching onto him, Minato couldn't help but internally snicker and agree with the taste of this guy, after all, she is one of the most beautiful girls in this world, just behind Tsunade and Mei.

A bit later, Tsunade joined them with some tea and snacks, and they began chatting, with the 2 girls excitedly asking a lot of questions to Tsunade. It's not every day that they have the chance to talk to the legendary Tsunade Senju, one of the 3 disciples of the Hokage.

Minato was bored, he dislikes passing time with people that he doesn't like, basically everyone apart from Kushina, Mikoto and Tsume for now. And he was not really in the mood to befriend Tsunade for the time being, worried about Kushina. It's not like Tsunade would have taken him seriously.

An hour after they came, they were ready to live seeing that Kushina will not wake up before hours when Tsunade suddenly let out a gasp, surprised.

"What happened Tsunade-sama?" Inquired Mikoto

"I already told you to drop the sama Miko-chan" Reprimanded Tsunade "And Mito-baachan wants to see Minato" Saying that, she tried to see what did her grandmother saw that she did not see on him. Sure, he was a pretty good looking kid and look not too weak for his age, but nothing really special. Failing to find anything, she shrugged.

"Oh" A chill went down the spine of Minato 'Why does she want to see me, I did nothing noteworthy. What did she glean of me at distance and without even seeing me up close? I was careless, I never thought that she will catch on something even if I didn't do anything...Well, no use thinking about that, I will know what she wants soon enough' "You guys go ahead and go back, Kushina will not wake up anytime soon. Let's visit her again tomorrow, there is no academy so let's come here at 8 a.m. What do you say?"

"Okay" "Let's do that" Mikoto and Tsume agreed, and they were lead out by Nawaki, while Tsunade led Minato a bit farther in the house.

"How did you know that she wanted to see me?"

"Oh that, there are seals everywhere in the house that Mito-baachan uses to communicate with us. She rarely leaves her room anymore"

"Seals can do anything uh"

A bit surprised that this kid knew of Fuuinjutsu, Tsunade nodded with a proud smile. Even if she didn't dab into sealing, she was proud of her grandmother.

They traversed a corridor and arrived before a door at the end of it at the back of the house. Knocking on it, Tsunade announce her arrival while ushering Minato inside, closing the door behind him, knowing that her grandmother will want to talk to him alone 'I wonder what does she want of him, well nevermind Mito-baachan can do strange things at times'

Entering the room, Minato took a quick look around it. It was a bit darker than the rest of the house, with the red curtain blocking most of the sunlight. There was nothing much in the room, just a wood bed, surely made by Hashirama, with a normal mattress and quilt. Behind it, a blackboard with a golden Uzumaki symbol inscribe on it. Near the bed, there was a small wood nightstand with a tree origami, and at the opposite of it, a wood closet. All in all a pretty humble room.

But what grabbed his attention was the person sitting on the bed. The old woman had long marron hair arranged in buns with hairpins in them and three clips in the front, with some hanging into her back, and large pupilless eyes. She wore a simple loose-fitting kimono held closed by a simple dark-coloured obi and had a rhombus marking reminiscent of the Strength of a Hundred Seal on her forehead. She also wore tags with kanji written on them on her frontal hairpin on each bun.

But it was not the fact that even she looks younger than her true age (Doctor Kureha number 2) that grabbed his attention, but what his intuition told him. 'Dangerous!!!' It's the first time that it has such a strong reaction, making him awed at the difference between her and the Hokage.

"Oh, you're a sensor?" The first words of Mito made Minato stiffen, and for the first time, a shocked look not faked appeared on his face.

"Wh-Why do you say that?" Minato cursed his stuttering internally, berating himself for being caught off guard and revealing weakness. 'F.u.c.k, does she sense my Hyper Intuition, but how is it possible? Can an intuition been even sensed by others?'

"Oh, don't worry. Because of a certain condition of mine, I can glean on the emotions of others. And when you saw me a bit of wariness was emitted by you, not what you would expect somebody to feel for an old woman like me"

Minato inwardly breathes a sigh of relief, but quickly berated himself and restrained his emotions.

"And what I want to know is why such a young one has such restraint on his emotions. Or rather, lack the emotion that a child should have?" Looking at Minato with a profound smile, Mito was looking at this anomaly curiously, never before has she seen such a strange phenomenon. The ROOT of this kid Danzo lacks emotions completely, but with him it's different, and she wants to know why so.

Meanwhile, Minato froze. He felt like he entered heaven but slipped and fell again into hell. He did not know whether to laugh or to cry 'Express emotions and she will see through you and don't express them and she will still know something is up, gaaah what an annoying ability.'
