After spending a day in Kirigakure, Shin returned to the Land of Whirlpools with Tsunade, Hinata, and Hanabi as the sun began to set.
"Your stubborn father agreed to let you co to the Land of Whirlpools with . I'm quite surprised," Shin said to Hanabi after they returned.
"Mm, actually, I also think my father is quite stubborn sotis." Hanabi nodded in agreent.
"Shin-sama, I made you so chicken soup! Would you like to try so?"
Just then, Karin suddenly erged from the kitchen carrying a pot. Inside the pot was the chicken soup Karin had simred.
"Ahem, Karin, that's very thoughtful, but… I'm not hungry right now."
Are you kidding ? Even before opening the lid, Shin could sll a peculiar burnt odor. How could this chicken soup possibly be good?
Besides, Karin had no experience simring chicken soup. Shin was 100% certain this was "poisoned" chicken soup.
"It's Karin's kind gesture. Even if you're full, you should at least try a little," i Terumī said, blinking innocently at Shin.
Seeing the slight curve at the corner of i Terumī's lips, almost unable to hold back her laughter, Shin felt an urge to spank her!
Looks like it's been a while since he disciplined her—i Terumī is starting to get out of hand.
Unlike Kushina, who was usually more prone to being feisty. After Shin's "education" yesterday, Kushina had successfully learned the aning of "low-key."
Of course, Shin didn't think Kushina could maintain that low-key deanor for many days.
Seemingly noticing Shin's dangerous gaze, i Terumī imdiately wiped the smile from her face and sat up straight, feigning seriousness.
But it was already too late. Shin had his eyes on i Terumī...
"Right. Since it's your kind gesture, Karin, we can't let it go to waste. How about i drinks it?" Shin took the pot from Karin and placed it in front of i Terumī.
"N-no! I…"
Before i Terumī could say anything to refuse, Karin rushed over frantically and snatched the pot away.
Shin looked up at Karin.
Sothing's not right... Karin is acting a bit strange.
"This… this can only be drunk by Shin-sama." Karin's face flushed slightly, her eyes, hidden beneath her glasses, darting around nervously, not daring to look Shin directly in the eye.
"Only I can drink it? Karin, did you put sothing in it?"
Shin's mouth twitched slightly.
It wasn't that Shin suspected Karin, but Karin did have a prior conviction. Previously, Karin had drugged him—with an aphrodisiac, no less.
However, with Shin's constitution, the drug naturally had no effect. But Shin had still found out and given Karin a harsh lesson.
"N-NOO!" Karin quickly waved her hands.
Alright, no need to ask anymore. Karin's current behavior had already exposed her. It seed Karin had drugged him again.
"Wow, Karin! No wonder you were so eager to make chicken soup for Shin," Kushina finally understood. However, Kushina also admired Karin's audacity.
Back then, she hadn't been as bold as Karin.
"Tsk. Karin, the last ti you were caught, you promised you'd never do it again. What do you have to say for yourself now?" Shin crossed his arms and looked at Karin.
"I'll… accept any punishnt, Shin-sama! Anything!!" Karin, having been caught red-handed, decided to embrace her fate. She even winked at him suggestively.
"This lovesick hussy is really bold. Compared to her, Big Sister is too timid." Hanabi looked at Hinata, who had her head lowered, shyly playing with her fingers, and sighed like a little adult.
"Little girl, what do you know?" Kushina smacked Hanabi lightly on the head.
"Ow! You're bullying too! This isn't fair! I'll fight you both!" Hanabi, after being tapped, was incredibly indignant. She launched a flurry of wild punches towards Kushina.
And then… there was no then. Hanabi, who had been so aggressive just monts before, was now cowering with her head in her hands, in a defensive posture.
Shin glanced at Kushina and Hanabi, who were now roughhousing, then turned his gaze to Karin.
"If there's a next ti, I definitely won't let you off so easily," Shin said, pinching Karin's nose.
"Oh..." Karin looked sowhat disappointed. She had actually been hoping for 'that' kind of punishnt.
"Shin, you're enjoying this, aren't you?" Mikoto stared intently at Shin, as if she could see right through him…
"Enjoying what? Mikoto, what are you talking about?"
Shin put on an innocent expression, clearly playing dumb.
"He's practically glowing with smugness," Kushina said, releasing Hanabi.
"Whether I'm enjoying or not, how would you two know??" Shin, seizing the opportunity while Mikoto wasn't paying attention, grabbed Mikoto and pulled her into his embrace.
"SHIN! LET GO FIRST!" Mikoto's expression changed slightly, and she tried to struggle free. But having already been caught by Shin, how could Shin possibly allow Mikoto to escape?
"You're too smart for your own good, Mikoto. You need to be—taught a lesson" Shin whispered into Mikoto's ear.
"Mm-hmm, I won't be so smart in the future. I'll be a dummy." Mikoto nodded her small head.
"Too late. You've already been caught. And I never let a delicious al go to waste." Shin laughed heartily, picked up Mikoto, and headed towards his room.
——
"Kushina, you look very happy. If Mikoto knew, how sad would she be?" Tsunade glanced at Kushina.
"What are you talking about? I'm happy for her! Shouldn't we be celebrating when one of us receives… special attention?" Kushina said to Tsunade with a perfectly straight face.
Actually, thinking about last night, it 'was' quite nice. But Shin being too strong was also a bit of a problem.
Tsunade looked at Kushina's serious expression and pouted. "Kushina, I heard you begging for rcy."
After Tsunade finished speaking, Kushina's face flushed red.
Had Tsunade really heard her? No, it couldn't be. The soundproofing was too good.
"You're just guessing," Kushina said, glaring at Tsunade, annoyed.
"Haha! I was just guessing before. But seeing your expression change, it seems I guessed correctly," Tsunade laughed.
"Don't laugh at ! You've begged for rcy too! You have no right to judge!" Kushina, hearing Tsunade's laughter, was quite displeased and retorted.
"....." Tsunade's expression froze slightly.
