"Come here, boy!" roared the Elder as he chased after Kenichi, "Face me like a man! I promise I won't kill you!"

The Elder had somehow figured out that Miu had been deflowered during the time period he was gone, and so he was obviously going after Kenichi but he was even angrier when he found out that the bastard had not left even a single girl he was with. Kenichi didn't know how he found out about others, but he put those concerns aside for now, as it was more important for Kenichi to live.

"Father," sighed Saiga, slightly embarrassed at this reaction. He had planned to play the 'overprotective father' bit, but his own father had already pulled that card. Just adding to it wasn't fun. On the other hand Shizuha sitting beside Natasha was smiling while looking at the scene and asked Natasha "Do you want me to spar with Kenichi as well for you"

"No, master don't " Natasha said but she was internally very happy that Shizuha wanted to do something like that. This year Shizuha has become a mother to her and she loved every moment of it.

"They sound like they're having fun," giggled Kiyoi, using her ears to paint a picture of what was going on.

Kenichi felt a punch whiz right by his ear again, seeing his life flash before his eyes for the umpteenth time before Kenichi decided it was time to pull out his secret weapon/life preserver.

Pulling out a box from a secret compartment underneath the dojo floor that Kenichi had bribed Noir and Tochumaru to keep it a secret and safe.

Once Noir pushed the box out for Kenichi to grab, he immediately opened it up, pulling out a scroll.

"I have a Choju-jinbuts-giga painting worth 200,000 yen!" screamed Kenichi, putting the scroll in front of him as if it was a shield. He, of course, had Niijima buy it for him as an insurance policy long ago.

The Elder stopped his punch right before the scroll, looking at it with keen interest before shaking himself out of it.

"Do you think you can bribe me so easily with this?" said the Elder, though his eyes focused on the scroll.

"... Consider it a gift?" said Kenichi meekly.

It was, however, effective enough for Miu and Saiga to catch up to the Elder and drag him away for a little family talk.

"Safe!" breathed Kenichi as he collapsed onto the ground, taking the time to breathe.

The Elder seemed dissatisfied with Miu's explanation that she was the one who initiated it, that it was completely by her choice, and that Kenichi had not 'seduced' her. She also specified that she made sure she was 'safe' so he wouldn't be a great-grandfather anytime soon.

Suddenly, Kenichi felt his arm rise up without warning, the scroll flying up into the air before a slender hand caught it.

"Fufufu, you were always interested in these sorts of paintings," laughed Kushinada as she opened the scroll, wearing a completely different style of clothing compared to her usual attire. She was wearing a business attire dress, though her cleavage was still revealed to the world to see.

Everyone in Ryozanpaku was immediately on guard at her presence.

"Looking for revenge?" asked Saiga as he quickly put himself in front of Miu.

"As much as losing the war hurts, I'm not someone who would seek revenge just for a petty reason," said Kushinada, "I'm merely here because someone is late for our date."

Everyone saw Kushinada giving the Elder a pointed glance before realizing just who her date was.

"Ahem," coughed the Elder, "It's just a meeting that we both agreed upon if an attempt to realize the Eternal Sunset was done."

"Don't tell me you didn't enjoy that little meeting we had just a few months ago," flirted Kushinada with a husky voice before rubbing her stomach with her hand, "I can still feel your warmth here when I had to limp back home."

"Grandpa/Dad!?" shouted Miu and Saiga in shock while the other masters also looked shocked. Apachai was covering his face in embarrassment, looking at Kushinada and the Elder.

"Oh yes, he was so passionate that night," continued Kushinada, "We went at it outside all night, otherwise we would've destroyed the buildings if we did it inside."

"My sister doesn't need to hear this!" shouted Rin, who had already covered Kiyoi's ears, who in response had covered Yui's ear.

"Stop stating it so vaguely!" shouted the Elder with a huff, "She got rowdy that night after consuming a little too much alcohol that she started to spar with me. I ended the battle with a two-finger jab to her stomach and right thigh to stop her from grabbing me."

"Oh," was the general reply, though disappointment could be seen in Kensei's eyes.

"Nonetheless, if you want your precious painting, you'll have to catch me," stated Kushinada, tossing the scroll up in the air before grabbing it and disappearing with it.

"Wait, give that back!" shouted the Elder as he rushed out with such force that when he jumped, he left a crater.

________________________________

Next day Miu and Saiga kept questioning the Elder about the 'date' with Kushinada, but he refused to say anything about it.

Kushinada herself was monitoring Chikage from afar, letting her grow up apart from her. Her conversation with the Elder along with what she heard during the battle made her realize her way of raising her daughter/disciple may have been too harsh. Especially now that she had it in her head that Miu was her 'granddaughter', and she had no desire to do that to Miu.

What wasn't said was that the Elder went into a sobbing drunk when he was on his 'date' with Kushinada and confessed that his precious granddaughter's flower had been plucked. While Kushinada put that thought in the back of her mind to interrogate Kenichi at some future date, she used this time to seduce the Elder into a more compliant mode.

The end result wasn't what she wanted, but the two did end up cuddling inside a room with their hands wandering about. Despite their ages, both of them had trained to the extreme, and the results spoke for themselves.

Surprisingly, Sho remained a student at Koryo High with Chikage while everybody else moved away. Just a day before Kenichi and Natasha went to Russia Elfreda gave Kenichi one last message, though, via an arrow right next to a tree that Kenichi had been leaning back on during a lunch period. Attached to the arrow was a threat for Kenichi to improve his archery skills so she could show her superior skills. As well as that she will defeat Clint Barton properly the next time as well. Since she couldn't find Clint she asked him to pass the message so Kenichi just gave the slip to Coulson and asked him to pass it on to Clint.

"I hope that you return fast" Takeda said, "I have my title match in few days so I would like everyone to be there"
