Tatsuya Pov-
Pakura wasn't surprised by Mikasa's sudden appearance. Over the past 8 months, Mikasa dropped by every other day, so Pakura was used to it. Mikasa also dropped by when Pakura was either busy training or she was asleep, to do things we can't do in front of a kid.
"Are you done with your work?" Pakura asked, even tho Mikasa dropped by every other day, she never told us what she was up to. The only thing we knew was that it had something to do with the hidden Mist.
"It was better than expected," Mikasa said with a smile. 'Why do I feel like I missed something extremely fun?' I thought.
As I was about to say something, Mikasa looked at my right hand before touching it with her left. As she did, a mark similar to the one on her left hand appeared on it.
'So she used the slave seal on someone?' I thought. Wondering who that unfortunate person is.
"You must've done a lot in this time," I said while looking at the mark on my hand as I could feel a faint connection to someone.
"Well, it's nothing much. So what should we do now?" Mikasa asked.
"The first step will be to awaken our Kekkei Genkai," I said.
"Don't you guys already have your own Kekkei Genkai?" Pakura asked, confused.
"I have another Kekkei Genkai while Mikasa is talking about evolving her Sharingan," I answered her question. She's more or less a part of the group now.
"Can your Ketsuryūgan evolve as well?" Pakura asked again.
"I don't know. It should be possible if I knew where this Dojutsu originated from." I said. Wondering about the origin of Dojutsu which doesn't belong to the Otsusuki clan. Is it a simple mutation?
"Well, we can't say anything about that for now. Pakura, what do you plan on doing?" Mikasa asked Pakura.
"I don't know." Pakura said as she shrugged her shoulders. 'Yeah, I am a bad influence on kids.' I thought.
"What's your clone up to?" I asked Mikasa.
"What clone?" She asked, confused.
"You said you left a clone in my place, didn't you?" Pakura reminded her.
"Oh, that. It passed the Chunin exam not too long ago. The third Kazekage is very optimistic about it and since the clone showed such potential, he gave up on killing you. Now he plans on using you in wars. And there have been a lot of kids trying to get close to you all of a sudden, probably because the Kazekage told them to." Mikasa said with a serious tone. Her expression was so natural that I almost saw Aizen in the laid back Kazekage. There's no way Pakura wouldn't believe it.
"That bastard." Pakura was burning with anger. No, more like scorching with anger.
"Calm down." Mikasa said as she patted Pakura's head.
Pakura once told me that she thinks of Mikasa as her big sister. If it wasn't for them being the same age, Pakura would've started calling her Mikasa nee-chan a long time ago.
"You can stay with us until the next war starts or go back to the Sand." I said while looking at Pakura.
"Should I start the plan to take over the Sand?" Pakura asked. Yeah, this was our plan.
"That won't be necessary for now," Mikasa said. 'Oh, I see what's going on now.' I understood what Mikasa was up to in the Mist.
"Why is that?" Pakura asked.
"Well, I already have the hidden Mist under my control. For the most part." Mikasa said with a smile.
"Excuse me?" Pakura almost passed out. 'In 8 months, she took over a shinobi village? What the heck did she do?' was written all over her face.
"Hehe." Mikasa giggled. Pakura was indeed cute when she acted like this.
"So, what did you do to the hidden Mist?" I finally asked.
"Nothing much. The three tails Jinchuriki is on our side, the Mizukage's Secretary is our slave. I have the summoning scroll of the seven swords of the mist, and the next candidate for Mizukage is also on our list." Mikasa said. 'Is that all?' I thought.
"What about the six tails Jinchuriki?" I asked.
"I don't know. The Jinchuriki wasn't in the village. We can just ask someone." Mikasa shrugged.
"What should we do now then?" Pakura asked, snapping out of her daze.
"I am free until the six tails Jinchuriki returns before reporting its identity as I did with the three tails," Mikasa said.
"Then let's go and have some fun," I said as I grabbed both their hands and teleported.
"Where are we?" Pakura asked while looking around. It was her first time being somewhere that isn't the Sand village or the training island. She was very excited.
"The Land of Hot Waters. It's mostly famous for the nice hot springs here." I said.
We did the same thing as last time, booking the whole inn for a week. The manager recognized me, after looking at Mikasa and Pakura, he gave me a thumbs up.
'How can someone so delicate looking eat so much. And Pakura didn't even eat half of this when we were training.' I thought as I looked at the two girls devouring enough food to sustain a whole family.

"Here" As I was searching for the place they stored so much food in, Mikasa raised her hand in an attempt to feed me, I didn't refuse. The food was delicious.
"Me too," Pakura said as she did the same as Mikasa. 'She's getting bolder day by day.' I thought while eating whatever the girls were feeding me.
"That's enough," I said.
"But we want to feed you," Mikasa said as Pakura nodded. Seeing that there was no chance for me to speak, I grabbed some food before I started feeding them.
They've both been working hard for the past eight months, it's not a bad idea to spoil them a little. And so, a week passed.

Mikasa teleported us into the Hidden Mist village. As we appeared, a woman was standing in front of us. She had black hair and blue eyes along with a very beautiful face. But that wasn't all.
'Her bust rivals Tsunade.' I thought, checking her out.
"Welcome back, Mistress." The lady said. 'Mistress? Oh. I sometimes forget that Mikasa only acts submissive in front of me.'
"Yeah. This is the one I told you about, Shiba Tatsuya. And she's our friend, Pakura. This is Yuki Hikari, the Mizukage's Secretary." Mikasa introduced us.
"It's nice to meet you, Master, Pakura-sama," Hikari said, making the atmosphere awkward for Pakura. But she still greeted her back, telling her there's no need to be so respectful.
[Chatroom
Tatsuya- Just how did you brainwash her?
Mikasa- That's the point, I didn't do much.
Tatsuya- Elaborate.
Mikasa- I just lied to her that her brother's condition was because of the incomplete seal placed on him when he became a Jinchuriki and some stuff. Now she hates the Mist and along with the gratitude she felt towards me, she became like this.
Tatsuya- That was one hell of a change.
Mikasa- Maybe she's a pervert? Look at how she's checking you out, a 10-year old.
Tatsuya- It's not like I mind]
"Let's check your strength," I said while looking at Hikari.
"Don't bully her too much," Mikasa said before teleporting with Hikari as I did the same with Pakura.
We appeared at the training island we used until now.
"You can attack me however you want," I said with a smile.
"Master, are you sure?" Hikari asked with a worried look. 'Is this the epitome of a maid?'
"Hikari, if you can even put a scratch on me, I'll free you," I said with the same smile.
"Master, please don't underestimate me," Hikari said with a frown, unhappy with the fact that I'm underestimating her.
She didn't waste any more time, she rushed at me while making some hand seals.
'Certain-Kill Ice Spears'
Several spears made of ice emerged from the ground near me at a speed at which it'll probably kill a Jonin if they weren't ready for this attack.
'Ice Release? Oh yeah, her name is Yuki Hikari.' I thought, remembering how I forgot about her introduction while admiring her figure.
Hikari looked confident that I'll have trouble dealing with her attack, but she didn't stop making hand seals, a good judgement. But alas, after the spears were done, I was standing above one of the spears with my hands behind my back. A classic young master pose.
'Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals'
Several mirrors made of ice appeared around me, making some sort of prison. It was the same technique used by Haku against Naruto and Sasuke, but the placement was better. Hikari made sure that the technique is executed with maximum efficiency while consuming the least amount of chakra possible.
Hikari entered one of the mirrors as her reflection appeared on each of the mirror. 'That's quite the sight.' I thought.
"Master, please give up. No one ever survived this attack from me." Hikari said, her voice coming from every direction. 'She isn't even considering what I said about freeing her? She probably doesn't believe me.' I thought.
"We need to set the hierarchy right," I said.
Hikari started jumping from one mirror to another, her speed was very fast, even faster than the Third Kazekage's 'Iron Sand World Method'. But the reason that Jutsu was dangerous was because of its unpredictability and destructive power. Hikari isn't on a level she can be compared to a Kage, let alone one of the strongest Kage. Not to mention her movements are easily predictable.
My natural perception after training for eight months was more than enough to follow her movements. The 'Eye of Insight' will be like bullying her. All of a sudden, more than 30 Senbons were coming my way from every direction. I coated my hands with chakra, catching each one of them before coating them in lightning chakra and throwing them back.
'Chidori Senbon'
In an instant, more than half of Hikari's mirrors were destroyed. She had no choice but to face me head-on now.
'That Jutsu depleted her reserves by 15%? Her chakra control is good but her reserves can't keep up with that technique.' I thought. Although this technique could've killed a group of Jonin with some trouble, it isn't worth it when fighting a long battle.
Hikari was standing in front of me, her face was full of shock along with fear and admiration? 'What's up with this woman?' I thought.
"Do you wish to continue?" I asked.
"No, Master." She said while shaking her head.
'Yeah. I got that skill.' I finally remembered the reward I got from the system.
'Appraisal'
[Yuki Hikari
Kekkei Genkai- Ice Release
Chakra- Low-level Jonin
Feelings towards Host- Admiration, fear, loyalty, submission.]
'System, there isn't any useful information here.' I said in my mind.
[Host will be able to see more when the skill levels up]
'She is Peak level Jonin when it comes to strength. The only thing holding her back is her chakra reserves. And what's with the feeling of submission?.' I sighed internally before turning towards Mikasa and Pakura.
[Uchiha Mikasa
System skills will not work on other system users]
'Well, I can just see her status so it isn't a big deal.'
[Pakura
Kekkei Genkai- Scorch Release
Chakra- Mid-level Jonin
Feelings towards Host- Love, loyalty, care, worry, gratitude, uncertainty.]
'Pakura's worry should be about how she'll confess to me or what if I reject her.' I thought.
'System, can Mikasa use the appraisal skill?' I asked.
[No, skills given by the system cannot be shared]
'Is that so.'
I walked toward Hikari, taking her right hand, she blushes. 'What are you? A high school girl?' I thought.
A mark appeared on her wrist, it looked like some chains were binding her hand. This was the slave seal's mark. The actual place the seal affects is the heart and soul, so it doesn't matter even if Hikari cuts her arm off.
I activated the function which will absorb natural energy from the environment, strengthening her physique. It'll be helpful to increase her chakra capacity. Hikari felt something changing within her body but didn't understand what it was. She just looked at me, confused.
"You'll be training to increase your chakra reserves starting tomorrow. Understood?" I said, glaring at her.
"Yes, Master," Hikari said. 'She really is into Master-servant play.' I thought.
"Pakura, can you look after her training for some days? It's the same training as you did with me to increase your chakra reserves." I asked while looking at Pakura.
"Sure," Pakura said with a smile.
"Let's go then," I said while grabbing Hikari's hand again as we disappeared.
.
.
.
"So, what are we going to do now?" Mikasa asked, she was sitting on my lap as she leaned back on my chest. It was already midnight, and Hikari's house was big enough for each of us to get our own rooms.
"Since it's year 51, there will be a conflict between the Leaf and the Sand this year. That'll serve as the starting point of the second shinobi war. That's when our plan starts. We'll make Pakura the hero of the Sand." I said, thinking about the ideal situation to do so.
"So we are going to the Ryūmyaku before the second shinobi war. Well, I was getting bored so why not." Mikasa said.
"Did you collect the experiment materials I asked for?" I asked while I kissed her from behind.
"Yeah, hunting from the Yuki clan was simple, they are scattered around the land of Water so I just had to pick some up. I also found a child from the Kaguya clan who awakened their bone growing Kekkei Genkai that came from Kaguya." Mikasa said.
"Did you place a mark on him?" I asked.
"Yeah, and a seal too. If he is ever in life-threatening danger, he'll be teleported right away." Mikasa answered.
"I see. The kid won't be of much use right now. Let's just make sure he won't end up dead. Our priority is to make Pakura the hero of the Sand in the upcoming fight. Then do what we are best at." I said with a very villain like grin.
"Let's start a war between the Sand and the Leaf." Mikasa said.
"Yeah."
