Chapter 428 - Yuna's Schemes Get Exposed
Since Sasuke discussed everything he wanted to discuss with Yuna, he tried to stand up and leave the room, but before he could do so, Yuna stopped him.
"Wait a moment, Sasuke. Don't you want to take Itachi's corpse with you?"
Yuna pulled a scroll out of her sleeve and showed it to Sasuke, who couldn't help but look at Yuna weirdly when she made him that offer.
"Seriously? You are willing to hand over the scroll before we can finish the deal? Are you sure I won't just take the scroll and ignore the deal we just made?"
Yuna snorted in disdain when she heard that and shook her head.
"Why would you do that? I don't think you are that stupid."
[Yes, you do, but you have a marker on him to track him down in case he does so.]
Despite Kurama's remark, Yuna continued speaking without a pause in her words.
"The only thing you lose in this deal is a pair of eyes you no longer need, and in return, you will have the whole village of Konoha hunting you down."
Sasuke looked somewhat skeptical when he heard Yuna's claim, so he immediately asked her if she was serious.
"The whole village? Why would Konoha hunt me down just because I broke a deal with you? Isn't that ridiculous?"
An arrogant sneer appeared on Yuna's face as she pridefully lifted her chin.
"If We will it, who would dare to disagree? Do you even know who We are?"
[Ohh, it's been a while since I have seen the young master act. And you even threw in the royal 'We'. It seems like you are taking all the stops today.]
While Sasuke had not the slightest clue how he was supposed to react to Yuna's words, Karin looked at Yuna with a lustful expression while excitedly rubbing her legs together.
'Ahh~ Yuna-sama is so domeneering. I really hope this idiot gets out of here soon, so we can continue~'
Since Sasuke did not understand what Yuna just said, he decided to just gloss over all of it and continue the conversation like he accepted Yuna's answer.
"So, could I have the scroll?"
Although Yuna was slightly dissatisfied that Sasuke didn't argue with her in the slightest, she only rolled her eyes at him and tossed the scroll towards him.
"Here you go."
Sasuke excitedly opened the scroll to take a look at its inside, but when he did, an irritation-filled yell left his mouth.
"WHY IS IT A PICTURE OF A BUNCH OF NAKED MEN KISSING!?"
'Kurama, analysis.'
[Report! Test subject showed the same reaction to a similar scroll filled with women. Answer! Test subject is so obsessed with his big brother that he doesn't feel attracted to anything else.]
'Ouch, that was quite harsh, Kurama.'
[Said the person who straight up gender-bend the person we are talking about.]
'Err, I was drunk?'
[You weren't.]
'I was for his own good?'
[Pretty sure it wasn't.]
'How about the greater good?'
[Nope, not even that one.]
'Fine, I did it because I thought it would be funny. BUT, since I'm great, and it made me feel good, it was clearly for the greater good!'
[So we have reached a level where the greater good benefits an individual, huh. Outstanding.]
'I know, right?'
While Yuna and Kurama were bantering with each other, Yuna was frantically searching through her pocket, pretending that she handed over the wrong scroll to Sasuke by accident, and moments later, she pulled out another one.
"Hehe, oops, I accidentally gave you the wrong one again. This one is the real one this time."
Sasuke easily caught the next scroll with a skeptical expression. Yet again, he opened it only to be greeted with an incomprehensible amount of seals that immediately gave him a headache.
"Don't worry about the complexity. That isn't a simple storage scroll that only stores something. It puts it in stasis as well to prevent it from decaying, which means that even if you took out Itachi's corpse after five years, it still wouldn't have deteriorated."
[Aaaaaaand…?]
'Hehe, you know me so well, Kurama. Not sure if I will need it in the future, but if he activates that seal, it will make it possible for me to reduce the power-up he gets from Orochimaru's seal to zero while maintaining the transformation.'
[Oh? Is that all? I expected more.]
'Mah, just a little something I decided to add.'
[Really?]
'Yup, really~'
[Pah! Bullsh*t! Are you looking down on me? Come on, what else did you add? No point in playing games with me.]
'*Cough*, fine. I might have added a little something to analyze the Indra destiny Sasuke received at his birth. Although I hate fate shenanigans, the bullsh*t it is capable of doing is always rather interesting.'
[As expected, there was something else mixed in there.]
Meanwhile, Sasuke's eyes widened in surprise when he heard that as he gratefully nodded his head. Honestly, he was slightly angry at himself for delaying this matter for such a long time. But since Yuna put Itachi inside a seal that would stop his body from deteriorating, there was no problem at all.
Moments later, Sasuke got up and gave Yuna an atypical grateful look.
"Thank you for going out of your way to preserve big brother's body. I will be leaving now to prepare to give him a proper funeral."
Yuna nodded her head and casually waved him away.
"Fine, fine, go ahead. Oh, and while you are at it, how about a tour through the Uzumaki compound? I'm sure there are lots of exciting things to see."
For some reason, that suggestion sent shivers through Sasuke's spine as he quickly fled the room, causing Yuna to chuckle in amusement. She lifted up her teacup, only to notice that it was empty, resulting in a frowning at Karin.
"My teacup is empty, and you didn't ask me for a refill. How dare a lowly maid neglect her duties like that? You will have to be punished!"
[So you decided to straight-up continue the play, huh?]
For a split second, excitement flashed over Karin's face before she submissively lowered her head.
"Ye… *cough* No, please don't punish me, Yuna-sama!"
Despite her words, Karin immediately started stripping as soon as she finished talking, causing Yuna to roll her eyes.
'Despite requesting roleplay rather often, she is pretty bad at it, huh?'
