Hiruzen gives a nod. "You make a good argument, Kushina. I will speak to Jiraiya and request that he doesn't mislead our poor Shinobis again, but understanding him, training the forces is wiser."
At one fifteen, Kushina exits the tower after telling Hiruzen that she would be occupied this afternoon shopping for office attire.
Upon exiting the tower, Mikoto wraps her in an embrace. She wore a beautiful sophisticated knee-length skirt and a top with half sleeves.
"Wow, Kushina, I'm shocked you asked me to go shopping; I knew you'd invite me, but I thought it would take you at least another week or two," he sighed at her behavior. "Sure, sure, you completely understand me, dattebane." Let's eat before anything else. "I'm hungry."
They enter a nearby restaurant where Kushina places an order for food. Simultaneously, Mikoto grabs a few snacks, "What caused the shift in your view regarding the new outfit?" "At last, I've discovered someone adorable in the office for you to poke fun at, ah Kushina," she laughs at this.
"It's not at all like that." These Shinobi outfits are overly ordinary. I sense I resemble an ordinary Shinobi at work.
"I've never taken the time to establish a personal dress code as a Kunoichi after reaching jounin rank." "As the new deputy Hokage, I believe it's important to have a unique aspect that sets me apart at the office," Mikoto agrees and starts humming a melody.
Before long, the women complete their meal and settle the check. Mikoto grips her wrist, steering her into the commercial area. They quickly move through the market zone. "Mikoto, where are we headed? I believe we have passed all the stores."
Mikoto silences her, "Be quiet. You have become an elite. We can't let you wear easily accessible outfits every day now. Considering your recent fame, copies of them would exist in every clothing store in Konoha within a week."
Kushina nods, understanding the meaning. "You're so clever, Mikoto. So, where are we headed?"
"We're heading to my tailor or more precisely, the Uchiha-clan tailors." We have a distinct section in the Village. We possess our small marketplace, a tiny control hub. It feels as if residing in another village within Konoha.
Initially, the elders perceived this as an indication of suspicion towards the Uchihas. However, following Yondaime's involvement and the new charter that granted greater authority to the clan, they were extremely pleased.
Kushina puts her hands on Mikoto's shoulders, "I regret that your clan experienced this due to my failure in my role as Jinchūriki."
Mikoto shakes her head and says, "It's not your responsibility; it never was." I am simply happy that everything eventually turned out well. Even the elders are joyful far from the Village. For them, it's a symbol of status: "Uchihas are the best of the best. We never associate with regular folks, which is why we have our own territory."
Shortly, they arrive at the clan gates where military police guards acknowledge and bow to both women. Mikoto swiftly led her to the Market section and then to a moderately sized store.
Several mannequins were situated around showcasing various types of dresses. Shortly, a woman with black hair arrives to join them. She appeared to be in her early fifties.
"Mikoto, it's wonderful to see you, I have your attire prepared -" she catches her breath, noticing Kushina paying her respects. "At last, it's wonderful to see you, Kushina sama." I am Akemi Uchiha, the tailor and clothing expert of the Uchiha clan. When Mikoto mentioned she would bring a friend, she didn't specify that it was you. "What is it that you desire?"
Before Kushina could respond, Mikoto interrupts, "Kushina here isn't very savvy when it comes to fashion." What she desires is an entire wardrobe transformation. By complete, I refer to a full set that includes casual shinobi attire, workout gear, loungewear, and of course her official outfit for the role of deputy Hokage.
Just as Kushina is ready to interject to prevent her from adding to the list, Mikoto persists, "naturally, she would also require matching underwear as well."
Kushina was frustrated. "Mikoto, we only arrived here for the formal attire." "I didn't arrive here to be your dress-up toy."
A chuckling Mikoto responds, "oh be quiet now." I have you in my grasp now. "You won't go until I'm happy," she concludes with a playful tease.
Shortly, they go inside, and Kushina takes off her Jounin vest. Akemi measures herself while remarking on her physique as each measurement is finished.
Mikoto grasps her hand. "Akemi-san, we'll have you handle the necessary outfits and designs here as I show Kushina around the women's section."
The duo quickly find themselves in another part of the store that features women's lingerie. A few mannequins showcased delicate nightwear paired with extravagant lingerie.
Kushina was swiftly escorted into a dressing room. While Mikoto explored various versions of herself, she soon found herself carrying a pile of bundles in her arms. The package included different kinds of lingerie that she typically only viewed in magazines.
"What, Kushina, take off quickly and give them a try?" I selected them based on your measurements. "Come on, put on a performance for the lady."
Kushina gives Mikoto a sharp glance and smirks at her. "Are you genuinely proposing that I undress and perform for you?" We are no longer teenagers, Mikoto. I am wedded, and you also are wedded. I don't believe it's beneficial for us to engage in role play as we did during our teenage years.
Mikoto lets out a sigh. "You take things too seriously, Kushina." You should take some time to unwind. I was present here to share my thoughts. It is often claimed that the way you dress has a direct impact on your confidence. This holds especially true for properly fitted underwear. So avoid being overly cautious and begin experimenting. "It's nothing I haven't encountered previously."
Kushina exhales, swiftly removing the blue sweater and mesh armor in one motion. Her shinobi trousers quickly came next. While she stands in her simple blue underwear before her best friend, memories resurface of similar moments from the past when they engaged in role-playing.
