Yakumo Kurama had returned. Not only that, she had connected a passage to another world. As long as she wished it, she could now travel back and forth between the Naruto world and the Highschool of the Dead world through the Five Senses Vortex Black Hole.
At the barbecue restaurant, Asuma paid out of his own pocket to treat everyone, celebrating Yakumo Kurama's safe return.
The gathering included Naruto, Yakumo Kurama, Kurenai Yuhi, Hanabi Hyuga, Hinata Hyuga, Saeko Busujima, Asuma, Kaguya, and Uchiha Hikari.
Asuma held Mirai Sarutobi in his arms, smiling somewhat foolishly as he sat beside Kurenai Yuhi.
"I really can't believe it. You disappeared for so long, Yakumo, and you actually went to another world. Kurenai kept talking to me about you. She was terribly worried. It's truly wonderful that you've returned."
Yakumo Kurama lowered her head with a smile. "Thank you, Teacher Kurenai, and Mr. Asuma. Thank you for organizing this gathering. Teacher Kurenai must be very happy with you!"
"Hey, Yakumo, what are you saying?" Kurenai Yuhi blushed furiously.
Asuma smiled and scratched the back of his head. "I think I'm the happiest man in the world."
Kurenai Yuhi was deeply embarrassed and lightly punched Asuma. "Idiot, why are you saying that in front of your students?!"
"Sorry..." Asuma hurriedly apologized.
"Ha ha... Teacher Kurenai's standing in the family after getting married..." Yakumo Kurama chuckled, her face full of teasing.
Kurenai Yuhi said seriously, "No, it isn't about standing. It's just that our feelings and love are intertwined."
Asuma and Kurenai Yuhi gazed affectionately at each other, their eyes holding no one but each other.
Yakumo Kurama's smile instantly vanished. Naruto, Hinata Hyuga, Hanabi Hyuga, and Uchiha Hikari also looked at the pair with strange expressions. So this was public displays of affection after marriage!
