Goddess of Ice; Reborn as Naruto's twin sister

Chapter 221 - Corruption Of Another Timeline

A short while later, Yuna and Kakashi both stowed away a few small books with satisfied expressions on their faces.

While trading with Kakashi, Yuna noticed that someone was looking at Kakashi and her in annoyance, and after glancing around for a moment, she saw the small Kakashi glaring at her.

A smirk appeared on Yuna's face as she approached him and squatted in front of him. Another small book appeared in Yuna's hand, which she immediately dangled in front of Kakashi's eyes.

"Hehe, how about it? Want to give it a try as well?"

The small Kakashi only scoffed at Yuna's offer without changing his facial expressions at all.

"I have no interest in dirty books like that."

"Ohh? Is that so? Considering how your future version acts, I somewhat doubt that. How about just giving it a try?"

"No, I am not a pervert like him."

Hearing the words of his younger version, Kakashi shook his head with pity in his eyes.

'How pitiful, young me. You are simply too young and naïve to understand true art. When was it that I started understanding true art for the first time? It should be a few more years for my younger version until he does so as well. Ah, how pitiful.'

While Kakashi was lamenting his younger version's "cruel fate", a mischievous smirk appeared on Yuna's face.

"Hehe, why not give it a little try? What's the worst that could happen? There is no way your will is weak enough to become addicted just after reading a few pages, right?"

[I see, so you have started sinking your claws into different timelines as well. As expected of you, no one can escape your corruption.]

'I mean, Kakashi is already a lost cause anyway, so I think he shouldn't count?'

[Wasn't it you that said that Minato could be a completely different person because we are in another timeline? Shouldn't that apply to Kakashi as well?]

'Haha…errr…oops? Well, in my defense, just look at how the young Kakashi acts like a mature, stoic adult. Isn't that really cute? How could I possibly not want to corrupt him after seeing that?'

[*Sigh*, Whatever.]

While Yuna was bantering with Kurama, a sliver of hesitation appeared on the young Kakashi's face. Yuna, naturally, saw that, which caused her smile to intensify.

"Hehe, come on. Give it a try. All the cool kids read stuff like that."

[Oh wow, really? The old "all the cool kids do it" line? That's pretty much the oldest trick in the book.]

'Hehe, that might be the case, but that is because it still works perfectly fine on young people.'

And just like Yuna said, the indifference in Kakashi's eyes was shaken yet again when he heard Yuna's words. Yuna was just about to give him another push when a hand smacked the back of her head.

*Smack*

"Yuna, could you refrain from corrupting young children with your behavior."

At first, a frown appeared on Yuna's face, but after seeing that the person who smacked the back of her head was Hinata, it quickly changed into a smirk. When Hinata saw Yuna's facial expression, she got a bad feeling, yet again, but before she could say anything, Yuna resumed speaking.

"Hehe, no worries, Hinata. I will make that our future children will not be influenced by stuff like that."

An image of a smaller version of Yuna that had her hair color popped up into Hinata's mind and immediately caused a crimson blush and a sloppy smile to appear on her face.

"Hehe, our children~ Just how cute will they be?"

Yet again, a small notebook appeared in Minato's hand and he started furiously scribbling on it while murmuring to himself.

"I see. If Kushina is angry at me, I usually apologize, but to think there was a solution like that as well. Kushina is rather shy when it comes to stuff like that, so this might actually work!"

A few minutes later, the whole group started moving together, and Minato's eyebrow immediately started twitching when he felt the current atmosphere. Instead of an A-Rank mission, it felt like he was currently on a sightseeing tour or a similar leisure activity.

Yuna and Hinata were currently walking side by side while Hinata leaned into Yuna with a happy smile and a light blush on her face. A pink atmosphere was surrounding the duo, and they were clearly flirting with each other.

The adult Kakashi had one hand in his pockets while the other one was holding a book in front of his face. The way he walked looked incredibly sloppy, and he would occasionally giggle in a perverted manner.

The child Kakashi, somehow, managed to get his hands on a similar-looking book as well. Unlike the adult Kakashi, who Minato could tell was still paying attention to his surroundings, he was completely lost in the book he was holding and would occasionally even trip over some pebbles. Minato had no idea how Yuna managed to slip him that book, but she somehow managed to do so despite flirting with Hinata the whole time.

The other two people in his group, Shibi Aburame and Chōza Akimichi did not have much of a presence to begin with, so they were only following Minato without saying anything. Chōza was eating, while Shibi appeared to be communicating with one of his insects.

Meanwhile, the two Narutos irritated Minato the most. Well, Naru2 irritated him the most, while Naruto was the close second place.

"EH!!! NO WAY!!! HAKU SURVIVED, YOU KNOW!?"

"Yeah, Haku and Zabuza both survived the encounter."

This was what irritated Minato so much. The other people at least weren't making much noise, but Naruto had no hesitation casually answering Naru2's question, while Naru2 was asking his question loud enough to make half the city hear him.

He was just about to reprimand them when he heard something from Naruto that he found rather interesting, so he decided to hold the scolding back for now.

"Haku actually became my girlfriend a few months after we finished the mission."

Naru2's eyes bulged while Minato nodded in approval.

'As expected of my son. He is still young, but he already found a girlfriend for himself. Well, Yuna has one…or rather multiple herself, but that somehow still feels a little weird to me. Rather than being told that my daughter has a harem, it feels much more natural to me if I am told that my son has a girlfriend.'

"Wasn't Haku a boy?"

Naru2's following words almost caused Minato to faceplant, while Naruto couldn't help but chuckle a little.

"Well, I don't know about your timeline, but the Haku I know is definitely female, hehe."

Hearing Naruto's words, Yuna's attention was drawn towards him, and after realizing what he just said and how he said it, a blush appeared on Naruto's face.

"N-No, I-I didn't mean it like that. I-I…errr…I…"

"You just took a little peek."

"That's rig…NO! That's not it!"

Seeing Naruto getting more and more flustered, Yuna couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahaha, haven't you omitted something rather significant as well, Naruto? Hehe, my little brother is actually a womanizer and managed to nab himself, two girlfriends, at the same time."

Hearing Yuna's words, Naruto's blush intensified even further before he lowered his head and started speaking in an annoyed manner.

"Like you are one to talk about being a womanizer, nee-san. I know about three, but I am pretty sure that there are more than that."

The moment everyone in the group heard Yuna and Naruto's discussion, they stopped walking and looked at the duo in disbelief. Well, everyone besides the young Kakashi, who was still immersed in the book he was holding.

Minato could only sigh in defeat when he heard that Yuna and even Naruto were creating a harem.

'Are my children fated to be… "unique"? Two of them have a harem, while the third appears to have no awareness about being a shinobi.'
