Subduing Inosuke

On the street.

After buying supplies for the month, Inosuke suddenly sensed something and looked back.

A figure hurried behind a corner, moving with remarkable clumsiness.

He couldn't help laughing to himself.

Which faction had sent a spy this time?

Sending someone this bad to tail him? They were seriously underestimating Inosuke.

Over the past month or so,

he had run into several spies like this one.

Every last one of them had died by his blade.

Inosuke strolled along, stopping at a stall and pretending to browse.

Out of the corner of his eye, he watched the corner behind him.

One glance was enough to hold his gaze.

What a beautiful woman!

Long golden hair, gentle and innocent features, and a smoking-hot figure.

At that moment, Inosuke's head was full of nothing but breasts.

"Gulp..."

His Adam's apple bobbed as he licked his lips in anticipation.

"They sent a girl this gorgeous on a mission? Don't mind if I do."

"I'll have my fun with her a few times, then kill her."

Seeing Inosuke touch the merchandise without paying, the stall owner snapped impatiently,

"Are you buying anything or not? If not, quit wasting my time."

A cold glint flashed through Inosuke's eyes.

He snorted and turned away.

He stuck to the side streets, taking several turns before reaching a secluded alley.

The blonde woman crept in after him.

But once inside, she discovered it was a dead end.

Inosuke had vanished!

Suddenly,

something hard pressed against the woman's back.

Her beautiful face stiffened.

She slowly turned her head and saw Inosuke.

Groping her, Inosuke asked casually,

"Who sent you?"

The woman stammered, unable to get a word out.

Inosuke didn't much care.

His hands squeezed harder.

"Don't want to tell me? That's fine. After we've had some fun, you'll be ready to talk."

The woman felt utterly disgusted.

Fun, my ass!

Mine's bigger than yours, damn it!

She lifted her face slightly and met Inosuke's eyes.

Her delicate eyes turned bloodred in an instant.

Inosuke's expression changed.

"The Sharingan?!"

The woman chuckled.

Still wearing that lovely face, she spoke in a man's voice.

"Hey, handsome. Still want to have some fun with me?"

Tomoe spun in her crimson Sharingan.

Inosuke's mind went blank for an instant.

Although he was a Special Jōnin, illusions were his weak point.

"Kakashi, now!" the woman hissed.

Inosuke's face twisted as he struggled.

He quickly regained his senses.

But at that very moment,

a dark figure swept in behind him and struck the back of his head with a sword sheath.

Inosuke dropped straight to the ground. He wouldn't be getting up without thirty thousand...

Wait, no!

He probably wouldn't be getting up for two or three hours.

Once he was completely unconscious,

his Transformation Technique wore off, revealing his true face.

The woman looked down at Inosuke and shook her head.

"Young man, lust will be the death of you... See? One blow, and you're down."

Kakashi looked at the woman and said awkwardly,

"Change back already, Obito."

Obito's current appearance brought back some unpleasant memories.

"Okay."

The woman nodded.

With a shift, he turned back into Obito.

At the same time,

a notification sounded in his mind.

[Choice successful! Reward obtained: Exploding Shadow Clone Technique!]

[Exploding Shadow Clone Technique: When your Shadow Clone dresses as a woman, it may explode from sheer embarrassment, instantly releasing a terrifying Chakra shockwave!]

Uh...

Obito read the description of his new reward and went numb.

What kind of twisted skill is this?

Before long,

two figures appeared in the alley.

They were Minato and Rin, who had followed the markers there.

Minato stared at Inosuke on the ground, stunned for a long moment.

He had only planned to bring the three youngsters along so they could get a feel for a mission.

He hadn't expected his students to be of any help.

But who could have imagined it?

He had been exchanging information with the person in charge

when Rin came running over to say they had found the target.

By the time he arrived,

the target was already lying on the ground.

Honestly, Minato was stunned by how capable his students were.

Inosuke was a Special Jōnin!

He couldn't understand it.

How had the two youngsters subdued Inosuke so quickly and quietly?

But now wasn't the time to investigate.

Minato set his questions aside, took a deep breath, and said,

"Everyone, gather around. I'll get you out of here first. This isn't the place to talk."

Attacking someone in the Black Market

would be troublesome to deal with if they were discovered.

They needed to leave quickly.

"Okay, Minato-sensei," Obito replied.

Apart from Obito,

Rin and Kakashi both looked surprised.

They didn't know how Minato intended to take them away or why they needed to stand together.

Still, despite their confusion, they obediently moved closer.

Minato placed his arms around the three youngsters and set one foot on Inosuke's chest.

The next instant,

all five of them appeared a short distance outside the Black Market.

Kakashi was stunned.

"Minato-sensei, was that... Space-Time Ninjutsu?!"

Minato smiled.

"That's right. The Second Hokage developed this Forbidden Technique. It uses a Formula to achieve instantaneous movement."

As he spoke, he picked up a Kunai bearing a Formula from the ground.

After showing it to his three students, he slipped it into his pocket.

Kakashi's eyes lit up.

He made a silent vow.

I have to find a way to learn that Space-Time Ninjutsu!

Instant movement combined with his swordsmanship... His breathing quickened.

By comparison,

Rin and Obito showed little reaction.

Rin simply thought Minato-sensei was amazing.

She wasn't particularly interested in learning the technique herself.

Obito figured that once he unlocked Kamui, he wouldn't have much need for the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Of course,

if he got the chance to learn it for free, why not?

Double Kamui plus Flying Thunder God? I could trigger my passive over and over!

The five of them set out on the road back to the village.

Minato could have used the Flying Thunder God to take everyone straight back.

But he abandoned the idea so his students could gain experience.

Looking at the three youngsters beside him, Minato tested them.

"Tell me, you three. What precautions should we take so Inosuke can't attack us when he wakes up?"

Obito thought for a moment and soon had an answer.

"Remove his arms and legs, then put seven or eight seals on him?"
