Chapter 22: Governing Soberly and Sexy Bodies

Naruto sat behind his desk, staring at the paperwork in front of him. He didn't want a clone to deal with, since it wasn't much. But for some reason, he just couldn't focus on it. He felt a nagging sensation at the back of his mind, but couldn't tell what it was from. He pushed himself from the desk, deciding that a clone could deal with the work while he cleared his head.

The whole incident with Yukie Fujikaze yesterday had been an ordeal. A boat had been secured for their mission, but it wouldn't come for another two or three days. Naruto walked the halls of the Hokage Mansion in thought, his arms behind his back as he focused his gaze on the floor before him.

He still needed to meet with his ever wise Civilian Council. He might have understood them, but he also thought he had made his thoughts on the matter clear as well. They needed to be dealt with, and as much as he hated to do it, there was only one way he could think of to do so.

"Genma, Ado!" Naruto called as he walked, the two ninja coming from the shadows as they kept pace behind him.

"Yes, Lord Hokage." the two chorused as Naruto glanced over his shoulder at them.

"I want the Councils, all three of them, present in the Council Meeting room. Have them all there by noon." Naruto said as the two wasted no time to give his orders.

"You can come out at anytime, Sai. Following me under illusions isn't the way to go." Naruto said, glancing at a wall as he outstretched his hand, ripping away Sai's genjutsu while said pale boy was wide-eyed and surprised.

"How the…? What did he just do? He… ripped it… physically… But how? That shouldn't be possible! There are only two ways to dispel a genjutsu! What is he…? He is truly a God?" Sai thought in a panic, though none showed on his face.

"That technique I just used is one of my own design. I came up with it while Jiraiya-sensei and I were searching for Tsunade. I force my own charka onto the illusion and disturb it with multiple waves of charka while moving my hand, hence why it looked like I ripped your genjutsu away. I'm still thinking of a name for it though…" Naruto said as Sai merely fell into step behind him respectfully.

"I see… then why not name it… Noren Mekuri…?" Sai suggested as Naruto rubbed his chin.

"Hmm… Curtain Stripping, you say… that's good, Sai. Thanks." Naruto said as he gazed over his shoulder with a smile. Sai felt his heartbeat increase while heat rose in his cheeks. He didn't know why, but that smile, it gave him an unusual feeling… a feeling of ease…

Sai hated that feeling.

"How is Yamato doing?" Naruto asked as he and Sai stepped out of the Hokage's Mansion.

"Tsunade-sama says that he will make a full recovery within a week. His vitals are stable and the only thing he needs now is rest and a steady diet of healthy foods." Sai said impassively as Naruto nodded.

"Good, good… How's Danzo?" Naruto asked, his voice carrying a little more firmness to it as Sai felt himself tense without wanting to.

"He is well." Sai said with infliction, as if he was being indirect.

"Oh? You didn't say Danzo-sama. Am I to take it that you can't? Or maybe you'll explode if you do?" Naruto said, taking the fact that Danzo seemed like the cold-hearted type to do something like that.

"The former. I can't speak that which is not to be talked about." Sai said quietly with his head bowed.

"That's fine, Sai." Naruto said, though his fists were clenched, "I knew Danzo wouldn't send someone to me without some security measures, but what if he's done this to every other ninja under his command. I'll just have to figure out a way around whatever defenses he has on Sai, and then remove them completely. You should know Danzo, you're playing at a young man's game and your time is nearly up." Naruto thought as he took in a calming breath.
