Konoha: The Female Ninja Lost It After the Diary Was Exposed

"Naruto has a pretty good eye. I'm a natural beauty, and he actually noticed."

"He's spot-on about Sakura, too. A Sasuke fangirl. A fangirl... Hahaha, what a perfect word."

"That's hilarious."

"But he does have a wandering eye."

"He's got his eye on so many women..."

Ino Yamanaka muttered to herself.

"Oh well. If Naruto really is the savior of the Shinobi World, I suppose I could accept him."

"For now, I'll talk to him tomorrow."

Ino made up her mind.

After all,

she had never really paid Naruto Uzumaki much attention.

All Ino knew

was that Naruto was the Ninja Academy's notorious dead last,

and that

everyone shunned him because he was the Demon Fox.

Now she was curious

how Naruto would go from dead last to the future savior of the Shinobi World.

"The Mystery of the Womb..."

"If that's true, Naruto Uzumaki is still Naruto Uzumaki, right?"

"But... awakening memories? Is that seriously not a joke?"

Uzuki Yugao, her long purple hair falling over a white bath towel, stared at the Diary in her hand in shock.

It had appeared out of thin air in her hand while she was bathing.

Yugao had immediately gone on alert, but she found nothing out of the ordinary.

Once she was sure it was safe, she opened the Diary and saw its shocking contents.

She took a deep breath, steadied herself, and kept reading.

"Naruto... he really has it in for Lord Hokage and Danzo."

"Then again, if Naruto is the Fourth Hokage's son, what the Third did was..."

Yugao cut off that dangerous thought and continued reading.

"Naruto has some nerve. It's bad enough that he's thinking about me, but he even has his eye on Lady Tsunade."

The more Yugao read, the more she began to believe what the Diary said.

After all,

neither she nor Lady Tsunade

was someone Naruto Uzumaki should know about.

Curious, Yugao read on.

"What?!"

"Konoha gets flattened by one person in the future?"

"You've got to be kidding!"

Yugao had barely read a few more lines before she was stunned again.

After all,

Konoha was no longer as powerful as it had been under the First Hokage, but it was still the strongest Ninja Village in the Shinobi World, bar none.

Konoha had won all three previous Shinobi World Wars despite being attacked by the other Ninja Villages together.

How could one person flatten it?

How powerful would that person have to be?

Even the Third couldn't do something like that, could he?

"Obito Uchiha killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife?!"

"Wasn't Obito Uchiha one of Kakashi's teammates? Didn't he die years ago?"

"I heard the Sharingan Kakashi uses now was given to him by Obito Uchiha."

Yugao could hardly believe it.

"The Ten-Tails?"

"Aren't there only Nine Tailed Beasts in the Shinobi World?"

"What on earth is the Ten-Tails?"

"Madara Uchiha fights tens of thousands of Allied Shinobi Forces?"

"Wasn't Madara Uchiha a Ninja from the First Hokage's era? He's still alive in the future?!"

"And what's the Ōtsutsuki Clan?!"

Yugao swallowed as she stared at the Diary.

Everything written in it was staggering.

Even as a trained Anbu, she felt her heart racing.

No. I have to report this to Lord Hokage!

The moment that thought crossed Yugao's mind, a chill unlike anything she had ever felt swept over her.

Somehow,

Yugao knew

that if she revealed anything about Naruto or the Diary to anyone else, directly or indirectly, she would be eliminated before she could do it!

"Damn it. What is this thing?"

Yugao cursed under her breath as she looked at the Diary in her hand, but there was nothing she could do.

"Looks like I'll have to investigate on my own for now."

Resolve hardened in Yugao's eyes.

Right now,

the most important thing was to get close to Naruto and quietly uncover the truth.

Hinata, the Little Wife Even Shyer Than in the Original Story

Bang!

With a dull crash, the rosewood drinking table shattered into pieces.

"Lady Tsunade, what happened?"

Hearing the noise, Shizune hurried in from the room next door, where she had been sleeping.

"Nothing."

"I just learned about a brat who really gets on my nerves."

Tsunade spoke through gritted teeth.

"A brat who gets on your nerves?"

Shizune looked at her uncertainly.

Because

just moments ago,

a Diary had suddenly appeared in her hand.

And something written in it

seemed to concern Lady Tsunade.

"Oh?"

"You have one too?"

Tsunade raised an eyebrow at Shizune.

"Do you mean the Diary, Lady Tsunade?"

"Naruto Uzumaki's Diary?"

Shizune answered cautiously.

"So I'm not the only one with this strange Diary."

At Shizune's words, Tsunade pulled the Diary from inside her robe.

At first,

when she had seen "Naruto Uzumaki's Diary (Tsunade)" written on it, she had suspected she might not be the only one who had such a strange book.

It seemed she had been right.

Shizune had received one too.

But

she still didn't know

who else might have a Diary besides the two of them.

"Lady Tsunade, it looks like people who have Diaries can discuss them with each other without being restricted."

As Shizune spoke, she took her own Diary from inside her robe.

As soon as she had received it, she had thought about telling Lady Tsunade what it said and handing it over to Konoha's Anbu.

But

the moment the thought arose,

she had felt that her life was in danger.

I can't discuss this with anyone.

That warning had somehow appeared in her mind.

Yet

when she spoke to Tsunade about it, she felt no warning.

So

once she saw that Tsunade had a Diary too, Shizune quickly worked it out.

Diary holders could discuss it with one another without restriction.

"Let me see your Diary."

Tsunade held out her hand to Shizune.

"Yes!"

Shizune handed her the Diary.

"These two Diaries look almost identical. How strange."

Tsunade studied them in surprise.

She had already tried to tear her own Diary apart, but even with her strength, she had been unable to damage it at all.
