Aoba accompanied Kurama Yakumo in the bridal shop, picking out wedding dresses for quite a while.
But what surprised him was that she also chose a white shiromuku.
Given Kurama Yakumo's personality, she should have picked sothing bold and avant-garde no matter what, yet she unexpectedly went with sothing so traditional.
At first, Aoba thought it was because, like Hinata, she was also the young lady of a ninja clan.
But after asking, she leaned in and whispered the reason into his ear.
Because it was more convenient to...
Aoba instantly understood.
He was left speechless.
Especially since Kurama Yakumo even deliberately teased him about it in front of him, to the point that when they were taking the wedding photos, he was a bit distracted.
He was genuinely worried that later, even the bridal shop's bathroom might end up getting clogged.
Fortunately, although she was a bit improper while choosing, when it ca ti to shoot, Kurama Yakumo was clearly fully imrsed in it.
'As expected, girls take this kind of thing very seriously.'
And by the ti they finished taking the wedding photos, it was just about ti for dinner.
As usual, it was Ichiraku Ran.
Aya had already gotten used to this daily serving of public affection.
She didn't even bother chatting much anymore. She just gave Yakumo a couple of blessings and went straight to serving other custors.
Aoba just smiled at that, treating his daily visit like clocking in.
After dinner, Kurama Yakumo imdiately pulled Aoba back ho without stopping.
Completely unlike Tenten and the others, even Inner Sakura would show a bit of restraint and so nervousness, Kurama Yakumo went straight to the point every single ti.
After returning, the people in the living room, who had just finished eating not long ago, weren't particularly surprised by Yakumo's arrival.
After all, bringing soone back every day had already beco sothing they were used to.
But what really surprised them was that after greeting everyone, Yakumo barely exchanged a few words.
She directly used the excuse of being tired from the date and pulled Aoba straight into the bedroom.
Not to ntion Uchiha Hikari and Fuu, who hadn't officially stepped into the "race" yet, even older ones like Uzuki Yugao and Tsunade were a bit shocked by Yakumo's move.
That was way too direct.
Even Karin, back then, had waited until everyone was asleep at night before sneaking into Aoba's room. Yakumo just dragged him in right in front of them.
However, after hearing Yugito and Kin talk about what happened at noon, no one said anything further.
After chatting briefly about work, everyone dispersed earlier than usual.
After all, from what the two said, Yakumo probably wouldn't be able to last very long.
———
"You're even more impatient than I am?"
After returning to the bedroom, Aoba held Kurama Yakumo and couldn't help but laugh.
"Hm?"
For so reason, as soon as she heard that, Kurama Yakumo suddenly seed a bit angry. She pulled herself out of his arms, crossed her arms, and said unhappily,
"Do you think I'm so kind of frivolous girl?"
Aoba froze for a mont, then imdiately shook his head. He cupped her face with both hands and said very seriously, "Of course not. If anything… I'm the biggest bad guy here."
"..."
Kurama Yakumo pressed her lips together, then gave a light snort.
"Hmph! I wouldn't call you a bad guy. The real bad ones are the irresponsible ones…"
After looking at him for a mont, the dissatisfaction in her eyes was quickly replaced with amusent and a hint of mischief.
"You're just the biggest perverted scumbag in the entire ninja world."
"..."
Aoba looked righteous, "I'll accept being called a scumbag, but I absolutely won't accept being called a pervert."
He just had a few ordinary hobbies that any normal person would have. That was still far from being perverted.
"Hmph! Really?"
Kurama Yakumo clearly didn't believe him. Then she lifted her foot, wrapped in white cotton socks, and stepped directly onto his leg.
"..."
Aoba kept his gaze straight ahead, indicating that he would absolutely not be easily tempted by this kind of sugar-coated attack.
But Yakumo, who knew his nature well, obviously wasn't going to let him get away with it so easily.
She simply pushed Aoba down onto the bed. No matter what, she was going to make him admit it today.
As for what happened afterward, it is not sothing I can explain without being cancelled.
———
After a night passed, Aoba actually worked half-days for the next two days.
That is, he worked seriously at the Hokage building in the morning, and in the afternoon, he accompanied Ino and Karin to take several sets of wedding photos.
During these two days, the ti for the Five Kage Summit was quickly finalized, though Shizune still seed a bit hesitant about the location.
She wasn't sure whether to hold it sowhere else.
Aoba wasn't in a hurry. Since the ti was already set, as for the location, with his Flying Thunder God, he could go anywhere.
But once the Five Kage Summit ended and they moved on to the next stage of action, he would probably be busy for a while.
Thinking of this, Aoba simply made another trip to the moon.
Ignoring the consciousness that was trying to take the initiative to contact him, he directly entered the sealed space and t Otsutsuki Kaguya, whom he hadn't seen for several days.
However, compared to the first ti he ca in, when Otsutsuki Kaguya had that cold, distant, almost emotionless deanor... this ti, Otsutsuki Kaguya was clearly a bit more lively… or more accurately, she felt more like a living person.
She was floating in the air as if lying on her stomach, holding the novel Aoba had left behind, reading it with great interest.
Her pair of pale, delicate feet, as if they had never touched the ground, were slightly raised, gently swaying in the air.
She didn't even notice Aoba entering her sealed space at first.
