Getting through the front gate was easy enough.
It was pretty handy being made of chakra since you could just change your body to fit whatever situation you find yourself in. All Kyuumi had to do was hide her ears and her tail, shorten her fangs and shorten her hair a bit. While she did turn a few eyes, no one called her out, which was a good thing.
Tsunade, Jiraiya and Shizune had not spoken much during their journey back. Was it because they were still processing everything that happened or maybe they were using some super secret technique to communicate with each other telepathically?
Who knows?
By the time they got back, it was already evening, a perfect time to eat ramen. Actually, all time were perfect for eating ramen, but evening was the most perfect of them all. Cold air, hot soup and delicious noodles. What better combination is there?
Looking down to his side, he took note of the small frown that Kyuumi had on her face.
"Something wrong?" asked Naruto quietly, prompting Kyuumi to widen her eyes and look up at him.
"I don't like tucking my ears and tail in. It's uncomfortable," answered Kyuumi as she placed a hand on the side of her head.
"Can't you like.. Hide them without tucking them in?"
She quirked a brow, "Would you have a suggestion?"
"I mean, you could just make a hood to hide your ears and maybe just carry around a huge backpack for your tails," replied Naruto, prompting Kyuumi to glance off in thought.
He waited patiently for her to respond.
"Hmm," hummed Kyuumi pensively before turning her head back to look at Naruto, "You've given me a smart idea for once. Good job. Monkey."
Naruto chuckled quietly, "Yeah, thanks."
"But I can't really do that right now. There's too many monkeys around us," replied Kyuumi as she held back the urge to glare at all the monkeys walking around her.
"Well, we could just find an alleyway."
"Do you honestly think your three monkey handlers will just let you leave? They are already suspicious of me enough."
"You could always ask."
"They'll say no."
"You'll never know if you don't ask."
She opened her mouth to speak, but quickly closed it.
"Fine. I'll ask them."
With that said, she skipped forward over to the three adults before tapping Jiraiya on the back, prompting him to turn his head back and look at her.
"Hmm?" hummed Jiraiya as he quirked a brow.
"Naruto and I will be heading off so that I can stretch out my ears and tails. Alright?"
"Okay," replied Jiraiya simply without even missing a beat, prompting Kyuumi to widen her eyes.
"Huh. Well alright then. See ya, you old perverted ape."
She left before she could see Jiraiya's response to her words and went back to Naruto. All Naruto did was quirk an eyebrow at what she said before she pulled him away by the sleeve. Off they went, to the nearest alleyway, which conveniently was actually really close by to Ichiraku's ramen stall.
"Mmmmmph!" strained Kyuumi as she forced her ears and tails to pop back out.
"Where do you even keep them?" asked Naruto as he watched her stretch.
