Ken: I’m back. |
Ken: Eh? Who is this girl? |
Tatsumi: H..hello! I’m… Tatsumi.
Kakashi: She’ll go with us for a little while. Ken: Haa!? |
Ken: Eh… Is she following her mother’s dream about discovering the onsens? By her own alone?
Mirai: Yes. Besides, Tatsumi-chan doesn’t have a buck..so I asked if she can go with us. |
Tatsumi: I apologize for making trouble.
Mirai: Don’t mention it, Tatsumi-chan. I really wanna help you. |
Ken: That was really who you are… Kind-hearted, Mirai-chan.
Mirai: What are you talking about..? |
Tatsumi: Are you two dating, Mirai-san and Ken-san? Both of you have great chemistry.
Mirai: W..what! N..No! He’s my senpai at the academy. And we’ve known each other since we’re young. That’s all! |
Ken: Why would you strongly loundly reject it? You’re rude… Why!? Dating with me is that bad?!
Mirai: I…I don’t wanna make people confused! Tatsumi: Hmm… |
Kakashi: Feel so good…
Ken: Right… Especially, if I’m here without these two elders… Gai: Nonsense! Protecting is on your duty! |
Ken: ………. |
Ken: Hey..dad. Tatsumi-chan…
Kakashi: Mm…Why? |
Ken: I’ll check Mirai-chan now.
Kakashi: Such a paranoid. She’s onsen bathing. |
Gai: Well saying, but behind that, you’ll peek at her bathing, right?
Ken: What!? Gai-san!! You think I’m a bastard psycho!? |
Gai: Caught you! You’re turning red! ‘Bout to do so, right? Idiot!
Ken: I didn’t turn red! Who the hell will do the hell like that? C’mon! |
Mirai: Eh? Senpai’s voice… Are they arguing? |
Mirai: Such a great time, bathing in the night like this…
Tatsumi: Umm…Mirai-san… I’m sorry for lying to you… |
Mirai: Eh? What do you mean?
Tatsumi: Actually, I didn’t follow my mother’s dream… |
Tatsumi: I’m travelling to an onsen where it leads me to see spirits.
Mirai: Eh? The onsen that makes us see dead?! |
Mirai: There’s no place in the world, Tatsumi-chan…
Tatsumi: Of course, there is! I wanna commune with my mother. It’s worth a try! |
Tatsumi: Mirai-san wants to see your father, right? Let’s make it together!
Mirai: Eh!.. But… |
Mirai: I’m on the mission. Mirai: But I’m… want to see my dad, too. |
Kakashi: Hey, Ken! Wake up… |
Ken: …what’s happened, dad?
Kakashi: Mirai was lost. |
Ken: What!? |
Ken: Was it weird? A person like Mirai-chan dumped the mission? No doubt if it was me.
Kakashi: Because her father is her weakness. Ken: Weakness!? Kakashi: A chance to speak with the dead. |
Kakashi: The enemies used Genjutsu to deceive girls who want to see the dead. And Mirai also wants to see her father all the time… I guess Tatsumi wanted to see her mother too. That’s why she’s here.

…………… |
Ken: Mirai-chan’s in this cave? Thank you, Genki, Dane.
Genki: No problem, Ken-chan! |
– Hey! Who are you!?
– Beat them! Gai: Oh! |
![]() |
Gai: Yaa!!
|
Ken: Oh! Perfect, Gai-san! Let’s get them!
Gai: Bahaha! I know right! |
Ken: Wow! He’s the 1st place in the world in taijutsu as expected. Eh? Why are you looking at me like that, dad? |
-Kill this boy!!
-Shit!! |
Ken: Bastard! You scared me!
-Argh! |
-Argh!
-What’s happening!!? |
Gai: Not bad! You’re not out of shape! You do live up to the son of my eternal rivalry!
Ken: I planned not to use any energy though… |
-Ryuki-sama! The trespassers! One man is very strong like a beast and two gray hair guys. One gray hair is a good looking boy.
-What!? |
Gai: Haha! Sorry that I’m strong!!
Ken: Eh! A good looking boy? Dad! He’s a good man! Let him go! Kakashi: This idiot… |
Mirai: A…anyone… |
Ken: Mirai-chan! Hey, Tatsumi-chan! What’s wrong?
Gai: Yo, Kakashi! I beat 7 of them, you just 5! Kakashi: What? That’s a competition? |
Kakashi: It’s my real turn now.
Ryuki: Arrghh! *A puppet to control humans. |
Tatsumi: Ah!! Ryuki: Shit!
Mirai: Tatsumi-chan? You’re now conscious! |
Mirai: Those idiots! |
Mirai: I’ll follow him!
Ken: Hey, wait, Mirai-chan!! |
Ken: Dad!?
Kakashi: It’s okay… She has great ninja skills. Don’t worry. We have to take these girls out to the safe place quickly. |
Girl: You’re Shinobi!? Girl: Do you come to rescue us? Thank you!!
Ken: Y…yes. |
Ken: Dad! It takes too long! I’ll help her. You handle it here.
Kakashi: It was just a second! Idiot! |
Ken: Where’s she!? Complicated way.
Kakashi: He’s such a rough thinker. |
Kakashi: Impressive!
Gai: It’s over now. |
Kakashi: But it was disappointing to me to hope that there’s an onsen that can heal your legs…
Gai: Oh! You’re worried about me? |
Mirai: Eh!? So it meant that this traveling wasn’t for the vacation, but for the missing girls?! |
Mirai: Why didn’t you tell me at first!?
Kakashi: Well… If you knew that we’re on the mission, your eyes would’ve been like a carnivore hunting for prey trying to find them. Mirai: Oh! C’mon! Not like that… |
Ken: Judging from the old man’s detaily words, he may let you do write the mission’s report for sure, Mirai-chan.
Mirai: Hmm… Kakashi: Haha! I was caught! |
Mirai: S..so then…can you help me, senpai?
Ken: Ha…Can I pass this? I hate doing super detailed stuff. Mirai: Oh…why not… |
Ken: Well, alright. When we finish it, let’s have dinner together, okay?
Mirai: ! |
Mirai: N..no problem. (He invited me for a date…?)
Ken: Great! |
Kakashi: He’s actually not related to a playboy. But he’s kind or person that is straightforward. |
Kakashi: And it was my very first time seeing him make his first move asking a girl. Haha! |
Thank you…. I love how you portray Ken and your story is really good❤
this is pure perfection
