23 Going for Shopping! Meeting Mikoto and Itachi!

Later after practicing the other two techniques, Kurenai could feel the side effects increasing, and her body temperature increasing rapidly.

Kurenai felt like she was full like a balloon and if she absorbed more of Kazutora's chakra, she would burst out.

Hearing her words, Kazutora hurriedly stopped the matter with a worried look on his, and he asked her to use the Shadow Clone technique to use her chakra.

When Kurenai used the Shadow Clone technique, the chakra in her body decreased by half, and Kurenai's body cooled down to normal temperature.

Both of them had stars in their eyes after seeing this, and they understood that using the Shadow Clone Technique was one way to solve Kurenai's matter.

"Let's end this for today. I will try to use these techniques more to add them to my fighting style, and till then, I will teach you everything I know about Genjutsu."

"I will perform genjutsu on your Shadow Clones and you can use that time to sense how chakra changes in my body, and how your clone's chakra reacts when he is in Genjutsu."

Kurenai said after thinking for a moment, and Kazutora looked at her. He didn't expect that she would think of this idea, and originally, Kazutora had already thought of this.

'Even if sometimes sister acts silly, I shouldn't underestimate her as not many people can become Jonin, and let's not mention leading techniques.'

Kazutora thought in his mind, and Kurenai looked at him with her eyes narrowed. She felt like Kazutora was thinking something weird about her, but seeing the innocent look on his face, she dropped the matter.

"I was planning to take a rest but now I feel full of energy. Kazu, do you want to go shopping with me, and look around the village? I feel that your height has grown up, and I can see that your clothes have become tighter."

"Uh!" Kazutora shuddered as he heard the word 'shopping' coming out of her mouth, and he knew that this wouldn't be a simple 'shopping'.

'Well, I haven't gone out for quite some time, and it would be a good change of pace.'

"Okay, I will go and change my clothes."

"Hmm, just wearing something casual and easy to take off. After all, you will be trying the clothes at the shop."

Kazutora nodded at her words, and he went to his room to change his clothes. As for Kurenai, she took out a stack of 10,000 Ryo notes, and she put them in her small purse.

A giggle escaped her lips as she thought of buying clothes for Kazutora and dressing him up in different styles.

It didn't take long for Kazutora, he came out of his room while wearing different clothes. Kurenai looked at the little white-haired boy wearing a loose white turtleneck, and sky-blue pants.

Kurenai looked at the little cutie with her eyes sparkling, and holding her hand, she walked out of the house.

Today, she planned on spending the money she had received from the mission and buying a few outfits for each of them.

"Since we had lunch before, let's directly go to the clothes shop. After that, we can walk around, and I will send a clone to take back the stuff at the house."

"We can use the storage scroll," Kazutora said but Kurenai just laughed at the words.

"If bags aren't held, and can't be seen while shopping, then it isn't called shopping."

Kazutora shot Kurenai a weird glance and he didn't understand what she meant. Shaking his head, he decided to not think about this matter and put it in the 'Kurenai's Antics' folder in his mind.

The duo walked on the streets of Konoha. Unlike a few days back when the streets were dead with lifeless people walking, now there was a slight hustle-bustle on the street.

Looking at them, Kazutora understood that people had started to come out of sadness and depression.

'Life goes on just as time never stops, huh! So, this quote is used to describe this situation. Those who survived the life-ending disaster have started to move on, and those who died now can only live in memories and talks of others.'

The slight smiles on the faces of people made Kazutora think of many matters, and he looked at Kurenai beside him.

'If she wasn't there, would I have been the same as I am now? I don't think so. Well, there isn't a need to think about this matter as there are no ifs in the world.'

Shaking his head, Kazutora shook these thoughts out of his mind, and Kurenai shot him a puzzled look. Kazutora just smiled at her puzzled look, and the grip of his hand around Kurenai's tightened.

Sensing this, Kurenai understood that he might be feeling nervous, and she held his hand tightly to provide her warmth to him to soothe his nerves.

Both of them walked silently while enjoying the peaceful atmosphere between them, and they looked around and checked the streets from time to time.

Kazutora looked around the street to see if he could find something useful or something that would strike an idea in his mind.

'After the shopping, I will ask sister to go library and borrow the books related to basics of sealing, and maybe technology and manufacturing.'

'I can delay my studies about Medical Technique or use more clones for it. After all, it is necessary to have a backing and, Tsunade is the one I have chosen beside Third Hokage.'

'Since she likes gambling, sake, and excitement, I just need to develop games, dishes, and books that would pique her interest and make her addicted so that she can't live without them.'

'I don't know much about complex games, but basic card games, tabletops, and even TCGs might be possible with seals and projection technique.'

'As for dishes, I can teach the basic idea to Ichiraku Ramen, and let him do the rest. I can write the books on my own and get money from them.'

"Kazu!"

'Later, I will talk with big sister and see if she can contact her. For now, Tsunade doesn't need to be here, but she just needs to give her Summoning Contract.'

"Kazu!"

'This way, I will have a medium to contact her, and I can ask Katsuyu to take us away using reverse summoning in case some shit happens.'

"Kazutora!"

"Ah! What?"

Kazutora exclaimed as he heard a loud voice, and he saw Kurenai looking at him with an annoyed look on her face and slightly puffed cheeks.

"Ahaha! I was lost in thoughts, Did you say something?" Kazutora said with an awkward laugh, and he heard giggles and feminine laughter in the background.

His face turned red as he heard them, and then another wave of comments was heard by him.

"How cute!" "You are right, he is such a cute boy!" "Those white hair, and cheeks make me want to rub them."

"Haha! Look at his embarrassed red face."

Hearing the whispers, Kazutora shot Kurenai a pleading look, and Kurenai gave an amused laugh.

They had already reached the clothes shop, and Kurenai entered the shop while holding her hand.

The people on the street looked at the shop and then at Kazutora who entered the shop with a twinkle in their eyes. They looked at each other and understood that they had the same ideas in the room.

But then, they felt a shudder, and looking at the shop, they saw the woman behind the cute little boy had stopped and she turned her head.

Before going in, Kurenai turned around and shot a glance at people in the streets. The people there felt a shudder and they understood that she was warning them to not mess around and disturb their time.

Looking at their expression, Kurenai understood that they had understood her glance, and she walked in with a pleased look on her face.

"Tsk!"

Several sounds of clicking tongues were heard on the street, and the people left the place and went to do their own things.

A fair-skinned woman with long, straight black hair with bangs hanging on either side of her face to roughly frame her cheeks and black eyes.

She wore a brown blouse, a dark purple skirt, blue shinobi sandals and the bangs on either side of her face were shown to be considerably longer.

The woman held an infant in her hand and a little black-haired boy stood while staring at the clothes shop. The woman had an amused smile on her face, and she glanced at Itachi for a moment and then at the clothes shop.

"I didn't expect that I would find a child cuter than you, Itachi!" Mikoto said with a teasing smile on her face, and Itachi looked at her for a moment and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Mikoto felt a bit annoyed as there was a big contrast between Itachi's reaction and the white-haired cutie's reaction.

'It would have been good if Itachi reacted like this. Damn Fugaku, it was his fault that Itachi became like this.'

Cursing Fugaku in her heart, Mikoto walked towards the clothes shop while holding Sasuke in her hand with Itachi following her. She had come to buy Sasuke's clothes, and she decided to buy a few casuals for Itachi too.
