22 Kurenai returns!

"I will try and see what I can do. Besides, your technique seems to work, and if the side effects can be reduced, then it will be perfect. I had talked teacher about this matter, and he didn't consider it as a big deal."

Anko said and Kazutora froze at the words. He gulped as he thought of Orochimaru knowing about him, and Kazutora asked, "What did you say?"

Anko looked at Kazutora's nervous expression, and she laughed.

"Don't worry, I didn't talk about it. Just like how I talked about Genjutsu in past, I said that I had the idea and wanted him to transfer his experience to me."

"The teacher said that he would check this matter, and he asked me to practice and not think about these things."

Kazutora nodded at his words, and he inwardly sighed in relief. He looked at the clone who was done with food, and Kazutora said, "Let's go there. Big Sister should be coming from bath."

"Hmm, don't tell her about this matter." Anko nodded at his words, but Kazutora shook his head.

"Nah, I will tell her."

"Eh? Didn't you say that you will cancel the matter? "I did,"

"What matter are you talking about?"

Anko froze when she heard Kurenai's voice, and looking back, she saw Kurenai looking at her with a questioning look on her face. She had heard some of the talk, and she understood that Anko wanted to hide something, but Kazutora didn't accept her words.

She was pleased by Kazutora's decision to not hide the matter, while Kurenai frowned at Anko and wondered what she wanted to hide.

'Is this related to Kazu picking her up and throwing her in the room? I guess something happened, and from the annoyance Kazu showed, Anko must have done something.'

Anko looked at Kurenai who had a frown on her face, and she opened her mouth, but no words came out of her mouth. She was too embarrassed to even say anything about the matter, and seeing her like this, Kurenai's expression worsened.

"Kazu, what happened? You tell me!" Kurenai said in a stern voice, and Kazutora looked at her for a moment and then glared at Anko.

Anko glared at Kazutora back, and just as she was about to say something, the doorbell rang.

"I will go and check it," Anko said immediately, and she ran away using Substitution Technique. Opening the door, she looked at her teammates, and after knowing that her sensei had called them together for a mission, Anko's eyes lit up.

"Kurenai! Sensei has called me for a mission, I will see you later." Anko shouted from the door, and after closing the door, she ran away from the house with a relieved look on her face.

'Hehe~ Now Little Tora will explain everything, and Kurenai's mood will calm down in a few days.'

Anko giggled at the thought, and in a pleasant mood, she rushed to her house, oblivious to the weird looks of her teammates.

At Kurenai's house, Kurenai stared at Kazutora, who gulped at her stare, and he said, "I will explain this matter from the start. You can eat it while I am explaining the matter."

Kazutora took the dishes and put them on the table. He sat on the chair, and Kurenai rolled her eyes, and she sat in her seat.

"You can start," she said with a strict expression, but inwardly she was amused at Kazutora's antics, and was happy at eating Kazutora's handmade food.

"It started on the day Anko-Nee came to the house with the books she asked from Orochimaru-Sama."

Kazutora said, and he explained the matter from start to end without hiding anything. He didn't think he would get anything by hiding the matter, and now that he knew about the side effects, he could control the amount of chakra, and do the process in several intervals.

Kurenai, who was eating the sandwiches was astonished by his words, and she had complex feelings regarding the matter. In just a few days, several things happened, and Kurenai didn't know what to say at the moment.

She was thankful for Anko's help, amazed at Kazutora's creativity, angry at his little experiment, and stunned by Anko's behaviour.

Not only that, she was happy that Kazutora didn't hide anything, and she also admonished Anko for doing something like this and teaching him bad things.

What Kurenai was worried about most was Kazutora's eyes which sparkled when Kazutora talked about the experiment, and she understood that this wouldn't be the last time.

In future, Kazutora would keep on developing strange tricks, and for this, Kurenai knew that she had to do something.

"Next time when you want to test something, consult me first. I won't say much about this incident as you both did a problematic thing, and it's good that nothing major happened."

"As for the matter regarding transfer of experience, we will test this, and you will be sending your chakra to me. Even though Anko said and behaved in that manner, I feel weird, and I think there might be a problem here."

"This time, if you notice anything, just knock me like you knocked Anko, and then wait for me to wake up."

Kurenai, who had finished her food, said to Kazutora and saw a strange look appearing in his eyes. She didn't pay attention to this, and after rubbing his hair, she put her hand on his hand.

Kazutora looked at Kurenai for a moment and seeing her trusting eyes, Kazutora nodded, and he started to send the changed chakra into her body. He paid attention to her situation and also created a clone who used sensory perception to check her chakra.

Kurenai closed her eyes, and she felt the 'weird' feeling that Kazutora talked about. She controlled her chakra to cover Kazutora's chakra and noticed that it started to merge with hers.

Then, she felt that she was in a strange state where she performed the Substitution Technique from a different perspective, and Kurenai could see a vague figure in front of her.

Five minutes passed, and unlike what happened with Anko, nothing happened to Kurenai. Kazutora who had been paying attention to Kurenai, only noticed some change in her chakra, and the rest remained like usual.

Kurenai opened her eyes, and unlike Anko who had a hazy look in them, Kurenai's eyes were cleared, and she removed her hand.

Without making a hand seal, she disappeared from her place, and Kazutora looked at Kurenai, who was smiling with a thoughtful look on his face.

"How was that? What did you experience?" Kazutora asked with a thoughtful look on his face, and Kurenai gathered her words.

"At the start, I did feel the 'weird' feeling that you talked about but after that, it disappeared. Thought, my body had started to get warm with the temperature increasing, and I was in a strange situation."

"It was like me practicing Substitution Technique, and I could see a vague figure who had a similar outline like your teen look."

"After that, the situation disappeared, and I opened my eyes. Now that I am paying attention to my body, I can feel a slight increase in my perception, strength and chakra."

Kazutora held his chin and he started to think about this matter. First, he compared the situation between Anko and Kurenai. Kurenai's body started to heat up, and Anko looked drunk with his chakra.

Then, he compared Anko and Kurenai's characteristics. Kazutora looked at Kurenai and he remembered what she said about seeing a figure, which Anko didn't see.

'Big Sister is proficient in illusion, and she has more spiritual energy or I should say Yin chakra than Anko. In the same way, Anko has more physical chakra, or I should say Yang Chakra than Big sister.'

'That's why the side-effects they experienced were related to what they were lacking.'

"I think I found the reason for side effects," Kazutora spoke in between, and he broke Kurenai's thoughts.

"What did you think?" Kurenai asked, and Kazutora explained the matter to her. With a thoughtful look on her face, Kurenai said, "Hmm! This theory seems feasible."

"Let me practice the substitution technique, and when my body calms down, you can do the same with the other two techniques. I will see if it is as you said."

Kazutora nodded at her words, and he saw Kurenai performing the Substitution technique with a grin on her face, and he smiled with a relieved look on his face.
