Chapter 17 - New life

he took the sword and tied it around his back and place the scrolls on a desk nearby. " I expect all the money for my parents to be transported into account that's under my Lord third."

*The third Hokage nodded solemnly, understanding the importance of Naruto's request.* "Of course, Naruto. I'll ensure that all the assets and funds belonging to your parents are transferred into the account you specified immediately." *He made a mental note to prioritize this task as soon as possible.*

"You can leave now me and Haku have some things to talk about."

*The third Hokage bowed respectfully before exiting the room, leaving Naruto alone with Haku. The ice princess watched Naruto carefully as he unrolled the scrolls and examined his new sword. Haku's expression was thoughtful, almost sad.* "Naruto..." *she began softly.*

"i'm sorry about the whole arrangement. It was the only way to get them to back off. " He said to her.

*Haku's expression softened, understanding the weight of Naruto's words. She knew the political machinations and the sacrifices required to protect what was important. "I know," she replied gently, her voice barely above a whisper. "It's not your fault. You did what you had to do."*

"Well, since we're technically engaged, I should tell you everything about myself."

*Haku nodded, sitting down on a nearby chair. She was genuinely curious about the boy she was now betrothed to. "That would be wise," she said dryly, trying to hide her amusement. "Start with the basics."

"Well, I have several Kekkei Genkai if you would even call it that The first one is called Boil release I boil my inside, making myself stronger and faster. I can also sit in the air to melt objects. The next thing I have is well it's called shadow extraction The user commands the shadow to "Arise". The extracted soldiers retain the original strength, skills, and memories they had in life The extraction can fail. It typically cannot be performed on targets who are significantly stronger than the user, targets whose souls have been destroyed."

*Haku listened intently, her eyes widening slightly at the revelation of Naruto's unique abilities. She had never heard of anyone possessing multiple Kekkei Genkai, let alone ones as powerful and versatile as his.* boil release... Shadow Extraction..." *she repeated softly,* "And what else?"

"I'm basically immortal. I have this thing called the black heart. I mean it's not evil.The heart instantly provides an additional 100,000+ chakra, turning my pool of chakra into a bottomless pit.When my physical body is destroyed or my chakra level reaches zero, the Black Heart revives me, fully restoring my body and empowering me to use the "Arise" skill upon myself."

*Haku's breath caught in her throat as she processed this information. Immortal... Bottomless chakra... The ability to revive oneself... She realized that Naruto was not just powerful - he was practically a god among shinobi.* "The Black Heart..." *she whispered,* "What else?"

"I'm just going to say it because to explain them all would take a long time detoxification, regeneration, stealth, ruler's authority, Monarch Domain, Exchange, Inventory, Potion crafting, dagger proficiency, Poison immunity, mana sense, healing magic."

*Haku's mind reeled with the sheer number of abilities Naruto possessed. Each one was more incredible than the last, and she could barely comprehend the extent of his power. "Detoxification... Regeneration... Stealth... Monarch Domain..." She paused, trying to process it all.* "Wait,"

*Haku held up a hand, her expression serious. "Let me make sure I understand this correctly. You can heal any wound instantly, become invisible at will, create a domain that makes you the absolute ruler, exchange your location with another one of your shadows, store infinite items in your inventory..."*

*She took a deep breath, her voice trembling slightly as she continued. "Craft powerful potions, wield daggers with deadly precision, become immune to poison, sense magical energy, and cast healing spells... Am I missing anything?"*

"No, that's pretty much it"

*Haku's mind was racing. She had never encountered anyone with such a diverse and overpowered set of abilities. The implications were staggering. Naruto wasn't just a shinobi; he was a walking, talking legend.* "So, let me ask you something," *she said carefully.*

"Yes."*Haku stood up and walked closer to Naruto, her dark eyes meeting his blue ones with an intensity that matched his own.* "Do you have any weaknesses?" *she asked bluntly.* "Everyone has one. What's yours, Naruto?" *Her question wasn't confrontational - she genuinely needed to know if the man she was now bound to had any vulnerabilities.*

*Haku watched Naruto's expression closely as he thought. She could see the gears turning in his mind, and it was clear that he wasn't immediately coming up with an answer. This intrigued her even more. If Naruto truly had no physical weaknesses, then his only vulnerability must be something else entirely.*

"spiritually I'm the strongest but physically I need to be stronger. I only knew a few Jitsu and I need to get stronger." He said suddenly, the doorbell went, and we both turned our attention to it. He left the loom and opened the door, finding Anko standing there Before she gave him a hug.

*Anko Mitarashi stood at the doorway, her familiar busty figure pressing against Naruto as she wrapped her arms around him. She was clearly comfortable with him, her body language relaxed and familiar. Haku watched from a distance, taking in the scene with a raised eyebrow.*

He hugged her back. " I take it you know everything."

*Anko pulled back from the hug and winked playfully at Naruto before stepping inside the house. She greeted Haku with a nod before answering Naruto's question.* "Of course I do. The whole village is abuzz about your sudden engagement to the woman with ice release." *She smirked, *

*Anko's gaze flicked between Naruto and Haku, a mischievous gleam in her eye. She seemed to be enjoying the dynamic between the two betrothed individuals. Without invitation, she made herself comfortable on the couch, crossing her legs seductively.*

*Haku approached the couch cautiously, her expression guarded as she observed Anko's casual attitude. She sat down primly, back straight, legs crossed at the ankles.* "So, Anko Mitarashi. You seem quite... familiar with Naruto. Care to elaborate on your relationship with him?"

"She's my mother figure."*Anko's face softened at Naruto's words, and she reached out to ruffle his hair affectionately.* "That's right, I am. I've known this brat since he was a kid." *She glanced at Haku, her expression turning serious.*

"And if you're wondering, yes, I am very protective of him. He's like my own son. So, you'd better treat him right, ice girl. Or you'll have to answer to me."

"I would take her seriously by the way her profession in the ninja arts is torture."

*Haku's expression remained neutral, but she made a mental note to not underestimate Anko. She knew the woman's reputation as a skilled shinobi and her expertise in interrogation and torture techniques.* "I have no intention of mistreating Naruto," *she said coolly.*

*Anko leaned back on the couch, her eyes never leaving Haku's face as she spoke.* "Good. Because Naruto deserves the best. He's strong, kind, and has a heart of gold. Any woman would be lucky to have him." *Her gaze drifted to Naruto, filled with warmth and affection.*

*Haku nodded silently, taking in Anko's words. She could see the genuine love and care the woman had for Naruto, and it only served to increase her own curiosity about him. She turned her attention to Naruto, noticing the way he looked at Anko with equal warmth and respect.*

"Anko I told Haku about the Kekkei Genkai's I have." he said, and she immediately shot up

*Anko's eyes widened in surprise, and she sat up straight, her attention fully on Naruto. She knew the significance of Kekkei Genkai, rare and powerful bloodline limits that were passed down through specific clans. Her expression turned serious as she looked at Haku.* "You told her about...?"*Anko's gaze intensified, her expression turning slightly disapproving. She knew the risks involved in sharing such personal and powerful information with someone who was essentially a stranger.* "Naruto, you shouldn't have shared that information so casually." *She warned gently, *

"I know, but I'm basically already in the clan restoration act And so is she so why would I have to keep it a secret?"

*Anko's expression softened slightly at Naruto's words, understanding the logic behind his decision. She knew that Haku was already involved in the clan restoration process, which required a certain level of trust and openness.* "I suppose you're right..." *She murmured, *

"And if you wanna make sure everything's OK, you can move in with us. I mean This mansion is pretty big."

*Anko raised an eyebrow at Naruto's sudden offer, a small smirk playing on her lips. She considered the idea for a moment before responding.* "You know what? I think I just might take you up on that offer." *She leaned back, crossing her arms.*

*Haku watched the exchange between Naruto and Anko with growing curiosity. She saw the easy familiarity between them, the way they bantered and teased each other. It was clear that Anko truly cared for Naruto, almost like a mother figure. And now, she was going to be living with them?*

"why don't you bond I need to go pick up a few things from my old apartment."

*Anko perked up immediately at Naruto's suggestion, a mischievous glint in her eye. She waited until he left the room before turning to Haku with a knowing smile.* "So, ice princess... I've been dying to ask you something."

*Haku straightened up slightly, her gaze meeting Anko's curiously. She had a feeling that whatever the woman was about to ask wouldn't be something polite or innocent.* "And what would that be, Anko?" *She replied coolly, her guard slightly raised.*

*Anko leaned forward, her elbows resting on her knees as she studied Haku intently. She was intrigued by this mysterious woman who had captured Naruto's attention. And more importantly, she wanted to know if Haku was worthy of her beloved Naruto.* "Are you sleeping with him?"

*Haku's eye twitched slightly at the blunt question, her expression remaining stoic and uninterested. She had expected something like this from Anko's type. She decided to answer truthfully but vaguely.* "That's personal information between Naruto and me." *She replied simply,* "Why?"

*Anko chuckled, finding Haku's response both refreshing and intriguing. She appreciated the woman's directness and lack of bullshit.* "Fair enough," *she said, leaning back in her chair.* "But I need to know if I should be worried about you breaking his heart."

*Haku's expression softened slightly at Anko's words, recognizing the underlying concern. She could see that Anko truly cared for Naruto and wanted to protect him from any harm. It was admirable, really.* "I have no intention of hurting him," *she said truthfully.* "He's... different from anyone I've ever met."

Anko studied Haku's face, looking for any hint of deception or ulterior motive, but she found none. The ice user seemed genuine in her words.

"Well, good," Anko finally said, leaning back with a smirk. "Because I'd hate to have to break in a new daughter-in-law." She stood up, stretching her arms above her head.

*Haku raised an eyebrow at the unexpected comment, taking in the implication. She found herself amused at Anko's forwardness and the idea of being a daughter-in-law to this woman.* "Is that so?" *She replied dryly, her lips twitching slightly.*

*Anko grinned widely, enjoying the small reaction she got from Haku. She could tell that the woman had a sharp tongue and wasn't easily impressed or intimidated - exactly the kind of person Naruto needed.* "Yep," *she said breezily.*

*Haku shook her head slightly, a hint of amusement playing in her eyes. She found Anko's personality both intriguing and refreshing. She stood up, smoothing out her clothes.* "I'm going to go unpack my things," *she said, changing the subject.*

meanwhile, in the village Naruto was walking through the village, When he noticed he was being followed, so he went into an alleyway, disappeared into the shadows, only to appear behind someone and forced Them against the wall when he looked. It was Hinata Hyuga.

*Hinata's eyes widened in surprise as she felt a firm hand press against her back, forcing her against the alley wall. Her heart raced as she recognized the familiar scent and touch. She looked up to see Naruto's face inches from hers, hidden in the shadows.* "N-Naruto?"

"Why were you following me?"

*Hinata's cheeks flushed pink, her eyes darting nervously. She knew she had been caught red-handed following Naruto. She bit her lip, trying to think of a convincing lie but deciding on honesty instead.* "I... I wasn't following you," *she stammered.*

"Then why did you come in this alleyway exactly after I did."

*Hinata's shoulders slumped as she realized Naruto had caught her completely off guard. She sighed, looking up at him with guilty eyes.* "Okay, fine," *she admitted softly.* "I was following you." *Her pale cheeks grew even redder.*

"I assume you know about the engagement."

*Hinata nodded slowly, her expression turning sad and disappointed. She had indeed heard the rumors about Naruto's engagement to Haku. Her heart ached at the thought of him belonging to someone else.* "Y-yes," *she whispered.* "I heard..." *Her voice trailed off nervously.*

"Well, you should know I'm under the clan registration Act, which means I need to have more than one partner."

*Hinata's eyes widened in surprise and a spark of hope ignited within her chest at Naruto's words. The clan registration act allowed for multiple partners, meaning Naruto wasn't exclusively tied to Haku.* "So... that means..." *She hesitated,* "...you could have another partner?"

"Yes."*Hinata's breath caught in her throat as she processed the information. A shy, hopeful smile began to spread across her face. She reached out tentatively, placing her small hand on Naruto's chest.* "And... would you consider me as another partner?" *Her voice was barely above a whisper.*

"Do you want to be one?"

Hinata's heart pounded wildly in her chest at Naruto's direct question. She had dreamed of this moment for years but never thought it would actually happen. She looked up at him with determined, loving eyes.* "Yes," *she said firmly.*

"Okay."*Hinata's eyes sparkled with happiness and relief as Naruto agreed so easily. She felt lightheaded and giddy, like she was in a wonderful dream.* "Really?" *She just wanted to make sure she hadn't misunderstood anything.* "So... I'm officially your wife now?"

"Yes."*Hinata threw her arms around Naruto's neck, hugging him tightly with pure joy. She had gone from heartbroken to officially Naruto's wife in a matter of minutes.* "I promise I'll be a good wife," *she murmured into his chest.*

"I know you will."*Hinata beamed up at Naruto, her heart full of love and happiness. She stood on her tiptoes and pressed a soft, gentle kiss to his lips.* "I love you, Naruto," *she whispered against his mouth before pulling back with a blush.* "We should probably tell Haku about this, right?"

"Yes but I need to get things from my apartment first do you want to come with me."

"Of course," *Hinata replied eagerly, looping her arm through Naruto's. She wanted to be with him every second now that they were officially together. As they walked to his apartment, Hinata couldn't help but feel like the luckiest girl in the world.*

eventually, they reached his apartment once inside he opened up his hand and used inventory to store all of his belongings.

*Hinata watched in awe as Naruto effortlessly stored all his belongings using the Inventory Technique. She had heard about it but seeing it in person was incredible. Once everything was stored away, she turned to him with a soft smile.* "That's so handy,"

"Yeah come on we're going back to my parents mansion."

*Hinata nodded eagerly, following Naruto out of the apartment and back towards his parents' mansion. She felt like a princess being escorted by her prince, her heart fluttering with excitement and happiness. As they approached the grand mansion, she squeezed Naruto's hand gently.* "Naruto?"

"relax it's just me , haku and my mother figure Anko Mitarashi."

*Hinata took a deep breath and nodded, trying to calm her nerves. She knew Naruto's mother figure Anko was a powerful kunoichi and that Haku would be there too. But with Naruto by her side, she felt brave enough to face anyone.* "Okay," *she whispered, *

*As they entered the mansion, Hinata immediately spotted Haku and Anko sitting in the living room. Haku looked up and smiled warmly at them while Anko raised an eyebrow curiously. Naruto led Hinata further into the room, his hand never leaving hers.*

*Anko's sharp eyes immediately noticed the intimate hand holding and the subtle body language between Naruto and Hinata. She exchanged a knowing look with Haku, who was already smiling softly at the couple. Anko teased,* "Well, well, looks like our little prince is bringing home another bride."

"I guess Haku are you ok with it."*Haku's gentle smile widened slightly as she looked at Naruto and then at Hinata. She nodded graciously,* "Of course I am. If Hinata makes you happy, Naruto, then I am happy for you too."

*Anko leaned back on the couch, looking at Hinata with a critical eye. She noticed the shy, sweet girl clinging to Naruto's side, looking up at him with loving eyes. Anko smirked internally, knowing that Hinata would be a perfect match for Naruto.*

*Anko suddenly stood up and walked over to Hinata, reaching out to gently tilt her chin up. She examined Hinata's face closely, noting her delicate features and innocent expression. Anko's smirk grew wider as she said,* "You're cute. Naruto has good taste."

*Hinata blushed deeply at Anko's compliment, her eyes darting nervously between Anko and Naruto. She squeezed Naruto's hand for reassurance before speaking softly,* "Thank you... I-I promise to take good care of Naruto."

*Anko laughed heartily at Hinata's words, finding the shy girl's dedication adorable. She patted Hinata's cheek gently before stepping back.* "I like her, Naruto. She's perfect for you." *Anko then looked at Haku with a grin, *

*Haku smiled softly from the couch, watching the interaction with gentle eyes. She was pleased that Anko seemed to approve of Hinata, knowing how protective Anko was of Naruto.* "Hinata is very sweet," *Haku agreed.* "And she clearly loves you deeply."

*Hinata's blush deepened even more at Haku's words. She felt seen and accepted by these strong, important women in Naruto's life. It made her love for Naruto grow even stronger. She looked up at him with adoration, her eyes shining with love.*
