At night with no one beside him, he really wasn't very used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed as if, in the unseen world, something had responded to his summons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, from outside, came the sound of knocking on the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"?\", Aoba was a bit speechless, walked to the window, and opened it. Anko darted inside like smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the middle of the night like this, what are you doing coming through the window?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the middle of the night, who knocks on doors? Of course, coming through the window has more atmosphere,\" Anko said with perfect confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the room next door, the young girl who heard the faint sounds also secretly pricked up her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The Next Day]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba and Anko were walking together on the street. Isaribi, because she wasn't feeling well, rested inside the inn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba originally wanted to check on her, but she refused, saying whatever happened she wouldn't let him examine her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you looking for something?\", Anko saw Aoba glancing left and right and couldn't help asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba nodded, \"I'm looking for some suitable local specialty to take back as a gift for Yugao-nee and the others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Local specialty huh…\", Anko's expression didn't change much, and instead she helped him think, \"Orange daifuku, caramel pudding, taiyaki, honey cookies…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop! Stop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba cut off her menu-listing behavior, \"Why are they all food?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because tasty things are the best.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anko said it like it was the most natural thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They're all what you like to eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba was speechless, and started searching again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very soon, his eyes fixed on a rather eye-catching shop, with many beautiful kimonos hanging outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to ask Anko.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you think about giving kimonos?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kimonos?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anko blinked, her face full of surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba asked curiously, \"Is there a problem with that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aoba, do you know the difference between a yukata and a kimono?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Difference? One is more formal, the other more casual, right?\", Aoba then said, \"Then should I give yukata instead?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surprise on her face faded, and Anko's lips curled slightly, \"Better stick with kimono. Compared to other places, the kimonos of the Land of Hot Water are a big specialty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Land of Hot Water had many hot springs, and many people liked to wear kimonos to attend festivals after soaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So kimono-making craftsmanship here was also quite excellent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only… Aoba didn't seem to know that giving a kimono had a special meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Anko didn't remind him. Who told this guy, while on a date with her, to bring up things like that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then let's go take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba led Anko toward the shop he had noticed earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This shop didn't have any gaudy, dazzling display lights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What it had was a faint fragrance of cloth, and walls filled with kimonos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Running the shop was an elderly white-haired woman with glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat all alone at the very back of the store, the cashier's desk in front of her made out of a repurposed sewing machine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was currently working on making a kimono, her old hands steady without the slightest tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the sound of the front door opening, the old woman lifted her glasses and looked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome! Are you here to buy some kind of kimono?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba: \"I'll take a look first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take your time, if you set your eyes on one just let this old granny know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba pulled Anko along to stroll around inside the shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After only a few rounds, he felt that just buying something ready-made lacked sincerity, so he went up to the old woman, \"Excuse me, can I order custom-made?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can, but you'll need to provide measurements, the fabric, and the style you want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman set aside her work, replying seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a ninja, with all kinds of dōjutsu, Aoba's eyes were a ruler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately wrote down the measurements needed, then based on each person's traits, wrote down the styles required. After choosing fabrics from the shop, he handed them to the old woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you make them as quickly as possible?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old woman looked at the data on the paper and fell into deep silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than twenty pieces…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never thought that at her age she'd still need to push herself one more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She silently looked at Aoba, then at Anko, who was still chattering nonstop at his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several times she wanted to ask something, but couldn't find the chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You'll need to pay a deposit first. Come pick them up in seven days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The customers' affairs were not something she should be concerned with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba paid a large sum, unable to help sighing in his heart that kimonos were expensive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, he had already looted Amachi once. Though it wasn't enough to trade for abilities, it was enough to buy kimonos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Anko's face also revealed a smile of a plan's success.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After playing for several more days, Aoba and the other two finally left the Land of Hot Water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, they had one more person with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a man with slicked-back hair, tied up tightly from head to toe, even his mouth gagged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Hidan, who had not yet joined the Akatsuki.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba had taken Anko on a special trip to the Hot Water Village. When they arrived, Hidan had just been about to massacre it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, they were in time, and Aoba captured him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But considering Hidan's special constitution and abilities, he didn't kill him. Bringing him back might even mean having a test subject he could use infinitely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>———\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure came back pretty fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade looked at the three before her, her expression half-smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anko laughed as she replied, \"Well, with Aoba here, the mission was done really quickly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade's expression softened as she looked at Aoba.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aoba suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. On Tsunade's smiling face, he couldn't see even a hint of laughter in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mission, for Aoba, would normally take maybe two or three days, yet the round trip ended up consuming nearly ten days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there wasn't something fishy about that, then what was?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anko, however, hadn't noticed the change in atmosphere at all. Pulling Isaribi in front of her, she began introducing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hokage-sama, her name is Isaribi, she's a victim of Orochimaru's experiments. I want to take her as my little sister, can she join Konoha?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"H… Hokage-sama!\", Isaribi also nervously greeted Tsunade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\", Tsunade carefully sized up the slightly frail girl before her for a while, then glanced at Aoba.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She found that he too had shown a confirming nod toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By rights, if an ordinary outsider wanted to settle in Konoha, they would have to go through screening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since Aoba vouched for her, there was no need for so many requirements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back then, Orochimaru's experiments, Konoha bears a large part of the responsibility for not discovering them in time. Do you have a place to stay in Konoha?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isaribi was slightly stunned. She hadn't expected this Hokage to speak so kindly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isaribi will live with me,\" Before she could speak, Anko answered for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tsunade nodded, \"Before you find a job, Konoha will provide you with a monthly living allowance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>═❀═❀═❀═❀═❀═❀═\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>patreon.com\u002FAmbitiousTranslator\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>🥳Joining Patreon keeps me motivated and eager to work diligently, so please consider joining.🥰 You can access upto 20 advance chapter through Patreon.\u003C\u002Fp>",1307,"2026-06-10T07:06:04.241Z",1,"novelbin.me","f24b44288f7722f951255163402ba88d46bf700823be3557273b1034f37445bf","naruto-yandere-harem-with-gacha-system-chapter-382","naruto-yandere-harem-with-gacha-system-chapter-380",828,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-yandere-harem-with-gacha-system-cover.jpg"]
