A ninja must see underneath the underneath

Chapter 6 - Onwards to The Land of Rivers

Kakashi, who was used to getting by with little sleep, woke up first. After re-filling his canteen, he decided it was time for Naruto to wake up as well.

"Naruto, get up!" Some incoherent mumbling came out of the smaller of the two tents.

"You have 10 minutes before I start packing up your tent, with you in it if need be." The older shinobi threatened while he started packing up his own camping equipment. Nine minutes and forty-five seconds later, a lot of mumbling, cursing, and stumbling sounds came out of Naruto's tent.

"What's the rush Kashi-senseiiii?" Naruto complained with his head popping out of the tent opening. Naruto's hair was ruffled and his eyes were small and still half-closed.

"Endearing." Kakashi thought. "And did he just call me Kashi-sensei?" "Get a grip Kakashi..." He scolded himself.

"We need to get moving Naruto, or we'll never make it to the border by sundown." He explained himself. "So get dressed, and I'll help you pack up your stuff".

"Hmpf, fine, fine, gimme a sec," Naruto replied while putting on his trousers and shoes. He crawled out of the tent half-naked and started to stretch his limbs.

"Not exactly a morning person, are you Naruto?" Kakashi asked the sleepy-looking boy.

"What do you think." The teen replied grumpily. "Do I at least get some breakfast or something?"

"It's quite late already, we'll just have an early lunch," Kakashi replied while staring at the half-naked slightly tanned shinobi stretching in front of him.

After they had packed up their camping spot, the duo got moving again. Soon enough, Naruto became his happy energetic self again while Kakashi was reading an Icha Icha novel. "What do you find so interesting about those stupid books anyways Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asked bluntly.

"First of all Naruto, they are not stupid. They are amazingly fascinating." Kakashi answered as if he was telling an undeniable truth.

"Fascinating for perverts you mean." Naruto interrupted his sensei.

"Perhaps... The people in the novels lead very different lives filled with passion, romance, and well... perverted sex." Kakashi admitted. "It's very different from shinobi life, which makes it nice to read." "And besides that, some chapters are really really hot," Kakashi added to make his student squirm.

To his delight, Naruto's whiskered cheeks became noticeable red. "You're such a perv..." He said uncomfortably.

Kakashi snickered. "Oh, you have no idea my little innocent Naruto-kun..." Kakashi patronized the boy. To tease him even further, he decided to start reading a chapter out loud.

"It's sooo big!" The young girl screeched in amazement. "I don't know if I can take it all." "Oh don't worry darling, I'll be gentle," Naruto replied while pulling the bewildered girl on his lap. The two started kissing passionately. Their tongues exploring each other's mouths. The girl's high-pitched moans filled the room. Naruto placed a hand on the girl's soft breast. He gently squeezed the tender flesh while his other hand descended towards..."

"STOP IT KAKASHI-SENSEI!" The real Naruto yelled with a now-beet-red color on his face.

"Ugh, I hate it that I have the same name as pervy-sage's main character." Naruto pouted.

"Let me read a bit more to you. It was just getting interesting." Kakashi teased wickedly.

"Don't you dare!" Naruto yelled at the older shinobi, who now had a huge grin behind his mask.

"Ohh, come now Naruto-kun. Are you getting shy? Do I need to buy you your own copy of Icha Icha?" Kakashi threw some oil on the fire.

"That's it!" Naruto yelled as he made a jump towards the book in his sensei's hand. Kakashi was quicker and taller than Naruto though. He quickly pulled the book away from the boy's grabbing hands and swatted him on the head with it.
