How Kurama Leads Naruto Astray

quickly 

Nadare Rouga ran off, Fuyukuma Mizore was barely hanging on, with more air coming out than going in, and could almost be thrown into the sea to feed the fish, making a small contribution to nature. Kakuyoku Fubuki was doing better, only suffering fractures all over her body and internal injuries after being hit by Rasengan.

It wasn't a minor injury, but it had nothing to do with Naruto and the others, so it wasn't a big deal.

One person carried Fuyukuma Mizore, and the other carried Kakuyoku Fubuki back to the ship. The director was very excited, saying that they had captured some great shots, and that once edited, it would be a major scene. He also booked movie tickets for Naruto and Sasuke.

Jiraiya was still sitting by the side of the ship, sipping on some sake, his face showing a mix of sadness and melancholy, which caused the nearby crew members to glance over frequently.

At that moment, Naruto and Sasuke returned.

Naruto threw Kakuyoku Fubuki to the ground, completely ignoring her bloodied appearance, and smiled at Jiraiya. "Perverted Sage, stop acting so deep, come help us interrogate this guy."

Jiraiya immediately broke character.

He rolled his eyes and the melancholy and sadness disappeared from his face. "There were a few pretty girls about to come over just now, hurry up and leave, don't ruin my good mood. Let Sasuke handle the interrogation, doesn't he have the Sharingan?"

Naruto and Sasuke exchanged a glance and agreed with what he said.

"Alright then," Naruto grabbed Kakuyoku Fubuki and followed Sasuke into the cabin.

Some ninja matters shouldn't be seen by ordinary people. The interrogation process would be bloody, and it would be bad if ordinary people saw it. As for Fuyukuma Mizore... just throw her away.

In one of the rooms in the cabin, Naruto threw Kakuyoku Fubuki down again. Sasuke stepped forward and activated his Sharingan. "You can choose to answer our questions yourself, or you can answer after I use Genjutsu to hypnotize you."

Kakuyoku Fubuki's face turned pale. Her chakra armor was shattered, with pieces of it stuck into her body, causing severe blood loss. She was weak all over and dizzy.

Hearing Sasuke's words, her face paled even more. "If I answer your questions, you'll let me go!"

She thought about the Fuyukuma Mizore who had been thrown down right in front of her.

"Now is not the time for you to bargain," Sasuke said, shaking his head, not impressed with Kakuyoku Fubuki's response.

He opened his eyes wide, the red Sharingan glaring into Kakuyoku Fubuki's eyes. "This is too troublesome, I'll just hypnotize you and then ask."

"No! Wait! I can answer! I'll answer anything you want!" Kakuyoku Fubuki trembled, shrinking back in fear.

Sasuke looked at Naruto, who nodded at him. The two exchanged a look.

A minute later, Sasuke couldn't hold it anymore and spoke up. "Aren't you going to ask anything?"

"Uh..." Naruto scratched the back of his head, looking somewhat confused. "What should I ask?"

Sasuke: "..."

Sasuke sighed. "Forget it." He turned to Kakuyoku Fubuki, looking at her with a deadpan expression. "Tell us why you attacked us."

"It's Princess Koyuki!" Kakuyoku Fubuki immediately replied without hesitation. "Lord Doto ordered us to capture Princess Koyuki, saying that she holds the key to the treasure of the Land of Snow. Our reason for attacking you is to find that key!"

"Princess Koyuki?" Sasuke frowned. "We don't have anyone named Koyuki in our team."

"Her name is Kazayahana Koyuki." Kakuyoku Fubuki said carefully. "She is the daughter of the previous Land of Snow Daimyo and the niece of the current Land of Snow Daimyo, Kazahana Doto."

"Ten years ago, there was a coup in the Land of Snow. Lord Doto killed the previous Daimyo to get the treasure of the Land of Snow, and he also tried to kill Princess Koyuki. But a Konoha ninja intervened and rescued her from the Land of Snow."

"Kakashi!" Sasuke instinctively said the name.

He remembered what Nadare Rouga had said earlier. No wonder that guy couldn't stop thinking about Kakashi—now it made sense. Sasuke had thought Nadare Rouga was just jealous of Kakashi.

"Yes." Kakuyoku Fubuki swallowed nervously. "For the past ten years, Lord Doto has been searching for Princess Koyuki. Only recently, he saw her in a movie."

"A movie? Princess?" Naruto was confused, then suddenly realized. "Fujikaze Yukie!"

"Exactly." Kakuyoku Fubuki nodded. "Even after ten years, Lord Doto recognized her. The actress playing the lead role in that movie, Fujikaze Yukie, is none other than Princess Koyuki, Kazayahana Koyuki, who was saved by the Konoha ninja Kakashi ten years ago."

"Whoa..." Naruto gasped, and he and Sasuke exchanged a stunned look. They were both shocked by the news.

She's a real princess, the daughter of the Daimyo. Though it's a small country, it's still a big deal... Wait, Tsunade is the granddaughter of the previous Land of Fire Daimyo, so technically, she's a princess too.

Well... never mind.

Naruto and Sasuke's shock only lasted for a moment before they returned to their usual calm.

Just as they were about to ask Kakuyoku Fubuki more questions, they suddenly heard footsteps from behind. They turned instinctively and saw Fujikaze Yukie—no, now it should be Kazayahana Koyuki.

They saw Kazayahana Koyuki walking out of the shadows, her face filled with sadness. She was holding a necklace that hung from her chest, and a sad atmosphere surrounded her.

She looked at Naruto and spoke with deep sorrow in her voice: "Now you understand why I told you to leave quickly, right?"

"Why?" Naruto said, clearly confused.

Sasuke crossed his arms and calmly looked at Kazayahana Koyuki. "Probably because she thinks hearing Kazahana Doto's name would scare us."

Kazayahana Koyuki stared at the two of them for a moment, then suddenly yelled, "Don't you get it? You're up against Kazahana Doto! That guy is someone you ninjas can't handle!"

"Is he strong?" Naruto said nonchalantly, leaning back.

"Probably stronger than Nadare Rouga." Sasuke replied.

After saying that, Sasuke ignored Kazayahana Koyuki and turned to Kakuyoku Fubuki. "Hey, how much stronger is Kazahana Doto than Nadare Rouga?"

Kakuyoku Fubuki paused for a moment, then slowly spoke. "Lord Doto's chakra armor is the latest generation. It can resist all ninjutsu and genjutsu, and it has all the abilities of the three of us combined."

It can fly, has claws, and can provide chakra amplification—something like that.

Sasuke nodded, understanding the situation. "If we remove the factor of the armor, how does he compare to Nadare Rouga?"

Kakuyoku Fubuki was stunned, her eyes filled with confusion. Her tone was uncertain: "Maybe... Nadare Rouga is a little stronger?"

She didn't know either. Since Kazahana Doto got the chakra armor, he rarely fought, because the rebels didn't need him to intervene to handle things.

Kazahana Doto's chakra armor is very strong, so Nadare Rouga isn't his opponent. However, without the chakra armor, Kazahana Doto was stronger than Nadare Rouga before the armor was developed, even though he hasn't fought for ten years now.

But... maybe... Kazahana Doto is still a bit stronger?

Seeing Kakuyoku Fubuki's uncertain expression, Naruto and Sasuke quickly understood.

Naruto pursed his lips, feeling a little disappointed. "What's this? I thought he was a strong fighter, but he's just another guy who relies on outside help to get strong."
