Ps. I change the POV. It will be a 3rd person perspective,. As I have been studying that too much on my College, Also I feel like the 1st POV weird as hell.
. . .
It was a hell of a night for Ino after that Uchiha left.
"Nii-sama, are you sure?" Ino then mumbled as she touches her necklace with tender care and love, then She heard a hum on her left ear.
"Alright. So let's go into this solo dungeon for level 30. As my level is close to that anyway," Ino then mumbled as she watches her newly formed level not too long ago.
[ Ino Yamanaka ]
[ Lv:29 ]
[ Hp: 8,200 CHK: 34,000 ]
It has been rough for her since her level reach level 27, as it been slow for Ino to get stronger and level up. Yet Nii-sama also ask Ino a question that still on her head till today.
'Who are you getting stronger for, And why?'
When Nii-sama asks this question nonchalantly, Ino head then blanked out.
Why did she actually want to be strong? Who is it for? Is it for a recognition? A showing off to fill up the emptiness on her heart from her previous family?
Or a distraction?
Ino herself was unsure,
But for now, She will be strong for her team and her family. For the ones that is dear to her, to protect them. And no longer need to be protected, and only watch on the side as other people hurt for her.
Maybe that is why she throws herself to save the child.
So she can prove her family that she didn't need protection, that she could help someone.
Yet she failed.
As she died, She hopes that her family didn't mourn for her for years. As she didn't quite deserve it. She was dying for her own selfish reason, and for that, she hurt her family.
Huh.
Ino then shakes her head.
She is doing what she has been trying to avoid.
And that is hurting them,
"Alright, Let's go to this Level 30 Dungeon filled with Ghost." She then mutters trying to shove her sadness somewhere else, As she clicks the 'Enter the Dungeon?' and click Yes.
Entering Dungeon Above your Level.
Warning!
Entering The Dungeon? Y / N
Looking at the Warning, Ino then just press yes. This is not the first Dungeon that is above her level. That 'Heaven Realm' Dungeon kind of been the cheery on top for Ino.
Ino then start to wonder when will her level was reaching high as those Angel and gain herself a Cherub as a companion?
Then the surrounding for her changed into the total darkness of a pathway, with an eerie feeling. The cold tingling on her body actually got her to shiver.
"What do you think that the weakness of those ghost Nii-sama?" Ino then mumbles as she twirls her baby Lucifer on her right hand.
Then she felt a tingling on her hand. as Ino held her hand up, the only light from the random houses on the side hit her.
"Ah. I'm guessing the light is their weakness?" Ino then mumbles As she notices that barely any ghost walking toward any houses with light, or any places with light reflect around them.
"I don't have any Light spells on me, nor Jutsu." Ino then grumbled.
"I think we need to go back to the empty Dungeon to practice Nii-sama," She then said as she pulls up the Dungeon options and moves to the Empty Dungeon.
The surrounding then changed into an empty clearing of a forest, without any birds chirping nor any sound of rustling from the tree itself.
"Ohh! Sunlight!" Ino then screamed out in happiness,
As the gloomy dungeon of that level 30 actually somehow impact her body. And the negative thought of hers was increasing as she stayed on that Dungeon.
The empty Dungeon always morning, even though in a real-time it is at night.
Midnight even,
"Hope mom is not mad at me," Ino then mumbled as she pulls her Chakra into her hand. And imagine a ball flying on top of her forearm.
At first, nothing happens. So then Ino imagines a bright glow of chakra in a color of Yellow.
Bright yellow even.
After a while, Ino can felt a warmness from her hand. Then a weight on top of it,
She then let out a grin.
A cherry size of a ball of light was showing on her hand.
- 2,000 CHK
"What?! Why is it a lot?" Ino then screamed out. As the coat of the Chakra was really scared her a lot.
Ino then tries to calm herself as she tries to create the skill.
After a while, the size of the ball of light is now the size of an apple.
"Its a process," Ino then said as she mentally pats herself in the back.
Then Ino tries to control the movement of the ball of light, yet she keeps getting her Chakra taken out from some reason.
"Ok. Control the movement, and focus." Ino then said to herself as her eyes now much more focus than before.
"Control it, feel the flow of the energy, " Ino then said as the ball of light finally moved without taking any of her chakras.
Then Ino shoots the energy as she pushes her hand toward the tree nearby.
BOOM
"Holy-" Ino was left speechless,
The crater and the hole of the tree actually scary.
Name The Skill? Y / N
"Holy Light," Ino then said,
Skill created!
Holy Light - Lv.1
A ball of energy that causes a DMG of 500 ATK. Cost - 2,000 CHK. And -50 CHK Per Minute. + 50% DMG to Dark creatures.
Ino then let out a string of curses.
She should have known that the attack is too good to be true,
Then Ino has a sinking feeling, She then just wrap her Training and decided to go to the Dungeon level 30 tomorrow.
As she somehow can feel her mother rages Dimension away.
Getting out from the Dungeon, Ino then walks out from the forest to the main road.
[ Naruto Uzumaki ]
[ Lv:14 ]
[ Hp:26,500 CHK:195,500 ]
Ino then choked.
"Yo Uzumaki!" Ino then casually greet as she sees the chakra monster in the form of a Prankster with a blond of a fluffy hair.
"Ehhh! Aren't you that Pineapple hair teammate?" Naruto then ask, as he scratches his head in confusion.
Which caused him to squint once more.
"Ehem, yup! The one and only! I! Am called! Ino Yamanaka!" Ino then said as she poses.
Letting her right hand holding a V's shape and the left arm on her hips. Then she winks, And for the beautiful ending, she added a mild Genjutsu of a star and firework behind her.
Not only she can act cool, Ino can also practice her Genjutsu more.
"Woah! you're weird.." Naruto then said,
"Thank you!" Ino then grins, Then she notices that Naruto currently holding 500 Ryo and grumbled something about Balloons.
"You ok?" Ino then ask,
Naruto shrugs his shoulder. "Ero-Jiji take all of my money from Gama-chan to buy that stupid balloons. And this is all I have for my dinner." he then grunts.
Naruto then kick a pebble on the road, "And that damned old man was charging me a tons of money too." Naruto then said as he downcast and look at the ground.
"Eh, I'm hungry anyway, Follow this Ino-Sama and she shall give you food!" Ino then arrogantly said as she put her nose up the air with arrogance filled around her.
Naruto then looks at Ino as if she was a mental case.
"Eh, I'm ok Dattebayo," Naruto then said as he shrug, and about to leave Ino but then was stopped as Ino block his way.
"This Ino-sama is not taken a no as an Answer," Ino then scowl and grab Naruto hand,
"C'mon, I know a BBQ place that is good and still open at this time." She then said,
As Ino notices that on the moon place, And her shadow, The time is currently around 1 or 2 AM.
"Ehhh! Uh- Ok then, But you are paying Dattebayo!" Naruto then screams out as he grins, letting himself be dragged by the female blonde.
"Obviously, This Ino-sama gained a lot of money from loot anyway," Ino then said, yet she whispers the last part.
Causing Naruto to scrunch his eyebrow, But in the end he just put it as the list for the Ino's sickness list.
It was not an uncommon knowledge that the female blonde has been quite Narcissistic for the newly graduated Student her age.
As for her strength?
Naruto is unsure, As she did beat Sakura-chan with the only Genjutsu. A Genjutsu that have Sakura-chan to turn green each time she sees Sasuke-Teme and enraged red once her eyes move to Naruto.
He really wants to hold grudge against Yamanaka but somehow he couldn't as the female blonde actually only use that Genjutsu to win the tournament.
Naruto can still remember when Kakashi-sensei himself was surprised when the female blond was only using a Genjutsu.
'She can do a lot worse than that Naruto, She's being soft.'
That's what Kakashi once told Team 7 when they have a meeting for their so-called training.
It was actually surprised Sakura-chan a lot,
"Oy! Are you there? Oy! Don't ignore This Ino-Sama!" Naruto then felt a hand moving in front of him.
Oh yea, he is currently getting a free food by the Female Blond named Uno.
Uh, Naruto then scratches his head once more, forgetting what's the female blond name.
"What were you doing anyway? At this night?" Ino then asked as she walks toward the pathway of the District ignoring the look they get from people.
To Naruto to be more precise.
"I was training Tebbayo! It was to make a circle or something for that stupid Balloons! I got too hungry so I end-up walk around the district trying to buy some food for cheap. Then that Old man got his stupid price jacked up so I ending up could pay for it! Thank Kami I didn't even eat it yet! Hahahaha!" Naruto then rants, as he laughs in the end.
Ino beside him just nod and listen, even If she couldn't find something funny from his words.
Finally, the two blonds arrived at the BBQ place.
"For two please," Ino then said politely,
The waitress then nods politely, "Please follow me," She then said with a soft voice, and led the blonds toward their place.
Then she gives two of the Menus and tries to ignore the Demon Child that is on their place.
As Naruto grabs the menu, the first thing he looks at is the price. And mostly they all cost from 750 Ryo to 5,000 Ryo.
Just what kind of BBQ place is this Uno bring him?!
Then Naruto tries to calm himself as he remembers that the female blond will pay for him.
"Anything to drink?" The Waitress then ask,
"I want a Sakura's midnight Sake," Ino then said, she was so glad that she actually turn legal once she becomes a ninja. Which means that she can drink Alcohol.
"Ehh, For me just water," Naruto then said, as he scrunches his nose.
Sake is disgusting, or any Alcohol for that matter.
"Alright, And for the food?" The Waitress then ask,
"I want this one Dattebayo!" he then said as he points at the T-bone Stake that is cost 1,200 Ryo.
"Alright, and for you miss?" She then said as she writes Naruto order,
"Eh, I want the White Lamb meat, Rare," Ino then said, Then she remembers her parents at home.
"And I will get two other more to take home," Ino then add. Causing the Waitress to nod and put more notes.
"Wonderful! I will get your order as fast as the Yellow Flash!" The Waitress then said as she smiles, trying to make them laugh. As happy customers, happy tips.
Beside, Yamanaka heir has been going to this place a lot that she even gives 400 Ryo to 1,000 Ryo as tips.
So everyone has been fighting to serve the Yamanaka Heir. Or any Clan Heir, as their allowance is something to not laugh at.
As the Waitress leave, Naruto then keeps fidgeting.
Why? He always felt awkward in this kind of fancy restaurant Ttebayo!
It seems that he is being judged as he is only using his jumpsuit that is dirtied and probably smells like his sweat and dampness from that water from the Balloons itself.
Then Naruto watch Ino,
She still has her purple dress with spandex and a bandage roll around her legs and fingers.
Now if he can look closely, her clothes are a mess too.
"So, did you just finish your training?" Naruto asks Ino, who is currently putting her head on the table. Getting some light sleep possibly.
"Hm?" Ino then pulls her head up from the table, "Yea.. I was trying to get stronger and practicing my new Jutsu for the Tournament. Knowing who I fight, he probably he will just surrender,"
Ino then grumbled.
"Huh? That Makeup guy?" Naruto then scrunches his nose trying to remember the Puppeteer.
"Yuup, That guy." Ino then said,
"Mn, Good luck then.." Naruto then said as he is unsure what to say than that.
Then Naruto notices something. Uno is the first person that he has been talking as if they were the same level, Even if sometimes Uno's head is broken, she actually can be a good listener and talker to Naruto without bashing his head nor mocked him!
As Naruto was about to thank Ino, he then stops as the smells of the stake caused him and Ino to droll.
Especially the sizzling sounds of the meats,
The Waitress then pushes the tray that is filled with 2 stoves, and on top of that is the stakes that the Blonds ordered.
She then places the food carefully and then bring up the water and Sake in front of the Blonds.
"Enjoy the food," The Waitress then said, as she smiles and leaves.
The Two Blonds then thank the Waitress and inhale the food.
. . .
"Thanks again, Uno!" Naruto then said as he walks away,
Ino, on the other hand, look back twice at Naruto, She just couldn't believe that the whisker boy just calls her 'Uno'.
Maybe it was the Alcohol that makes her think he call her that,
She then shrugs, "Eh, No problem. I got money to burn anyway," Ino then shrug.
Causing Naruto to laugh, He then looks back to Ino direction and grin. "Oy, Uno! Then next time when I'm broke you need to treat me again -Ttebayo!"
Ino then laugh,
Yea. Not the Alcohol.
"Sure, sure, I can't believe you can eat 9 of that meat!" Ino then said as she remembers when Naruto said 'Another one!' countless times until they check the time.
At that Naruto decided to stop eating and draining Ino money,
Not that her balance will suffer anyway.
She got money from her parent, the elder, the mission, and the loot.
"Alright," Ino then scream out her answer as well,
They then separate and Ino brings the bag of food for her parent.
They might heat it up and eat it for Breakfast if they still awake. Besides, it's already 5 am,
As Ino reaches her compound, Ino then walks into her house. Saying hello to any Yamanaka that are still awake or just awake,
Or those who are currently running around the Compound for a Morning jog,
"Morning Iko Baa-chan!" Ino then said as she grins at the elderly who are sitting in front of her porch,
"Ah, Morning Ino, Still awake?" Iko then asks, as she let a grandmother smile at Ino.
"Yea, Training to be a Chunnin after all," Ino then answer with pride on her voice,
"Ohoho, Ah yes, I see the Tournament last time, You did great Ino-chan," Iko then compliment Ino, Causing Ino head to be bigger than usual, which cause Iko to laugh amusingly,
"Hehe, Thank you Iko Baa-chan!" Ino then grins, "Oh, I need to go home before the meat is cold!" She then said,
Iko then nod, And gesture a 'shooing' motion to Ino,
"Bye-bye Iko Baa-chan!" Ino then screams out as she dodges the children that currently run around.
"Goodbye Ino, Say hello to your Parent from me," Iko then said as she continued to enjoy the morning sun,
Ino then nods and walk toward her house.
In there she watches her mom currently tending the flower, "Morning mom," Ino then said as she runs and then kisses her mother cheek,
"Morning sweetie," Noriko then said as she smiles at her daughter,
"I bring food," Ino then said as she dangles the plastic bag that is filled with steak inside for her parent.
Noriko then smiles, "Go put it on the dining room, I will take care of it later. Also, go take a shower," Noriko then said as she cleans her hand from the dirt on her apron.
Ino then nod, "Ok mom," She then walks inside of the house as she mumbles "Tadaima,".
"Okaerinasai Ino," Inoichi then said as he walkout from the hallway,
"Arigatou Tou-chan! Oh, Nii-sama say hello!" Ino then said,
Inoichi then smiles, "Okaerinasai, Inoji," Then a whisper on his ear caused his ear to moisten up.
"Arigatou, Otou-Sama,"
Inoichi couldn't believe his luck, to have a wonderful daughter this powerful.
He then let out a laugh,
"I'm going to take a shower alright Tou-chan!" Ino then screams out as she put the plastic bag on top of the table.
"Alright," Inoichi then nods as he grins at her daughter way.
Then his eyes turn dangerous and deathly toward the following Anbus that were hiding from her sight. "No one, I mean no one shall peep on my daughter. I will break your mind until not even the Yamanaka Elder themselves fix you,". Then he sees all of the Anbus to nod fearfully at him.
He didn't work at the damn TI for anything.
Dammit.
