I would like to announce that I released a new fiction titled My Life In The Multiverse, check it out and tell me what you think.

I tried to act casually with Mukai to make this group of tense idiots relax a little but I forgot that they weren't relaxed around me in the first place, not to mention seeing me act friendly with a potential enemy so I simply made the situation worse as they all started watching nervously what Mukai's trying to do by approaching the lake…

Then, to Naruto's and Sasuke's surprise, Mukai started walking on the water of the lake and observing it before suddenly, he kicked with the bottom of his foot creating a small ripple... then three large fish were dragged from it and held in the air with invisible strings… and he kept repeating this motion until he collected enough food for everyone present and started heading back toward us with a smug look on his face…

Naruto's and Sasuke's faces were filled with amazement at this cool showcase, however surprisingly it wasn't just them, as the more experienced people in this group understood just how terrifying are the capabilities of this man from this seemingly peaceful scene.

"What a show-off…" I muttered in annoyance while looking at the smug look on Mukai's face that seemed to be carved in his bones.

Kakashi's mind however was filled with shock "How can he be so skilled with the Hyuga's gentle fist when he's not even a member of their clan… What a monster, to actually have such a strong mastery to use it with his legs and take out a group of moving fish with such great control, almost without creating any disturbance and even sparing some attention to manipulate chakra strings with his hands to hold his catcher fish in place… This traitor can't be allowed to live any longer'

Realizing how hugely he underestimated Mukai, Kakashi's eyes started turning colder as he signaled to Itachi and Shisui to be ready for a fight at any moment!

Shisui and Itachi already understood how dangerous Mukai was. After all, they already fought and lost convincingly to the point that Shisui was almost forced to use his Mangekyo Sharingan if I didn't interfere at the last second, so they reluctantly nodded at Kakashi and waited for their opportunity…

"Waaa, Mukai-san that was so cool, can you teach me how to do it?" said Naruto as he innocently approached Mukai with twinkling eyes which made Kakashi and the rest much tenser…

Meanwhile, Mukai for the first time since he arrived here had an actual genuine expression on his face... probably because he likes children and their innocence because they reminded him of his kids. Of course, minus a certain kid he knows who didn't have an ounce of innocence...

So, he smiled at Naruto warmly and patted his head while saying "You want to be a ninja?"

However, before Naruto could respond, Sasuke who thought so highly of his brother and Bakorio didn't want to think that there was someone cooler so he quickly said "Hmph, my big brother Itachi and Bakorio are waaaaay cooler"

'Good boy Sasuke, good boy' I couldn't help but nod when I heard Sasuke although I didn't appreciate that he mentioned me in the same sentence as Itachi…

Naruto on the other hand simply ignored Sasuke and said to Mukai "Yup I will become the strongest ninja ever, even stronger than Bakorio"

Mukai's eyes flickered a little as he shot me a look and found a very smug look plastered on my face to the point that he felt like he was looking in a mirror which annoyed him so he replied to Naruto "being stronger than Bakorio isn't that hard, how about you try to become stronger than me?"

Naruto suddenly tilted his head and with the same innocent look, stabbed a dagger at Mukai's ego as he said "Why would I? Bakorio's waaay stronger than you"

"Tch, hahahahahhaha you hear that Mukai, even a kid can tell who's the boss here" I couldn't help but burst out laughing as I saw Mukai's face crumble by what Naruto said and he almost fell back from impact of this blow, and hearing my laugh made him even more annoyed as he put down the fish he caught and was about to sit beside me but I suddenly raised my hand and said "Wait!"

Mukai looked at me in surprise but I quickly explained to him with a smile " these guys didn't get enough of last time's beating so go have some fun with them first"

Mukai's surprised face suddenly disappeared like an illusion as an amused smile replaced it and he said while looking at the tense trio "I didn't think you would actually warn me"

Itachi couldn't help but yell at me " what are you doing? helping an enemy! are you also trying to betray Konoha?"

I looked at this guy that was still too young and inexperienced, being only 11 years old at this point, and decided to forgive him as I said "Are you stupid Itachi?"

Itachi was about to speak again but Shisui stopped him and said "Itachi stop, Mukai already noticed that we were going to attack him before Bakorio said anything, His warning is directed to us not to Mukai"

I clapped at this smart monkey and said with a serious face "That's right, see how nice I am Itachi? Mukai knew the moment he turned his back on you and started walking towards the lake as he secretly used his Byakugan without you noticing and observed you signaling to each other... Anyway, fight if you want but do it away from the kids"

Itachi realizing that I simply didn't want to involve the kids, nodded in embarrassment. However, I wasn't finished and I suddenly looked at both Mukai and Kakashi as an ominous aura started gushing out of me like a broken dam and said "However, no killing or fatal injuries are allowed from both sides. Otherwise, you wouldn't like what might happen to you…"

Mukai's expression immediately turned dead serious when he sensed the amount of killing intent emanating from me that made the animals in the area start running away as if escaping from a calamity...

'Just how many people were killed with those small hands?' thought Mukai while looking bakorio in surprise, and unsurprisingly, similar thoughts were going through the minds of all the people present but suddenly the killing intent disappeared making them feel like they were just hallucinating… but they knew they weren't!

Kakashi quickly regained his calm and said to Shisui and Itachi "Let's go!" before he jumped to the lake and started running on the water until he reached a distance he deemed safe for us and no shockwaves would reach our camp.

Itachi and Shisui quickly followed after him but not before asking me to take care of the kids just in case and I calmly nodded as a response

Meanwhile, Mukai shot me a weird look before he also turned around and started following them to the lake while calmly sipping on his alcohol…

"Oy Naruto, Sasuke, who do you think will win?" I suddenly asked, bringing the kids out of their confusion of the sudden development of the situation...

Naruto who was still amazed by the recent cool showcase immediately said "I think Mukai-san will win" but Sasuke immediately rebuked him and said "Are you kidding? Big brother will easily beat him up in no time"

'Well, you will find yourself disappointed, Sasuke…' I thought with a smile on my face as I watched the fight that started…

-10 minutes later-

I happily ate the fish Mukai caught as I grilled them on the bonfire while the half Hyuga was fighting the two and a half Uchiha… and right now, the results of the fight were already settled as Mukai sat beside me with some cuts on his outfits while Kakahi, Shisui, and Itachi had multiple bruises all over their bodies, especially Itachi who had two black eyes like a panda…

As I was eating, I couldn't help but look at Itachi and I ended up bursting into laughter again as I crazily slapped my thigh before I turned to Mukai and said "HAHAHAHAHA Mukai, you never seemed more pleasing to the eye"

Mukai wanted to puke when he heard these words coming from me as he thought 'I hope I never seem like this again"

Meanwhile, while Itachi felt like crying as he thought 'What did I do to deserve this special attention?" Clearly, Mukai made sure to turn him into a panda for some reason, so poor Itachi ended up getting some free makeup...

An: Who's surprised by the result of this fight?
