Chaos in the Another World: The Oddball's Reign

Chapter 33: The Wandering Chaos and The Ripple of Chaos

Word of Aika's strange behavior had begun to spread far beyond the borders of Konoha. Reports of her being spotted near the gates of other hidden villages surfaced with increasing frequency. Each time, Aika's reason for being there was as baffling as her unpredictable nature.

The Hidden Sand Village

Gaara, now the Kazekage, stood atop a high dune, looking over the vast desert surrounding Sunagakure. His once-tense gaze had softened over the years, but today, it was filled with confusion.

"She's here again?" he asked his sister Temari, who had just delivered the report.

"Yeah, one of the guards spotted her near the village entrance," Temari replied, sounding just as perplexed. "When we asked her what she wanted, she just said she was bored and asked if she could prank the village."

Gaara blinked. "That's... it?"

Temari shrugged. "I guess."

Gaara sighed and waved his hand. "Tell the guards to keep an eye on her. But if that's really all she's planning, let her be."

"You're going to let her prank us?" Temari raised an eyebrow.

Gaara, ever calm, said, "I doubt we could stop her even if we wanted to."

The Hidden Cloud Village

Killer B had been training with some of the younger shinobi when a strange presence appeared at the edge of the training grounds. It was Aika, grinning like a child who had just found a new toy.

"Yo, Aika! What brings ya here to my Cloud crew?" B rapped, spinning his swords playfully.

Aika clapped her hands, amused. "Boredom, Killer B. Pure boredom. Thought I'd come over and ask if I could do some pranks in your village."

B paused mid-rhyme. "Pranks? You mean those pranks?"

Aika winked. "You know, the fun ones. Don't worry, I won't break anything important... probably."

The Raikage, who had been watching from a distance, walked over, his fists clenched. "You can't just come here and mess with our village because you're bored, Aika."

Aika turned to him, completely unfazed by the Raikage's imposing presence. "Why not? It's all in good fun. Plus, everyone gets so serious all the time. Loosen up!"

The Raikage's scowl deepened. "If you want to challenge our shinobi, do it directly. But no chaos here."

Aika chuckled, her eyes gleaming mischievously. "Challenge? That's no fun! I'm not here to fight. Just here to make things a bit more... interesting."

With that, she skipped off, leaving the Raikage and Killer B exchanging confused glances.

The Hidden Mist Village

Mei Terumi, the Mizukage, sat at her desk when one of her ANBU burst into the room, out of breath. "Mizukage-sama! She's here!"

Mei raised an eyebrow, not looking up from her paperwork. "Who's here?"

"Aika! She's... outside the village."

Mei finally glanced up, her eyes narrowing. "What does she want?"

"She said she's bored and wanted to ask for permission to pull pranks on the village."

Mei closed her eyes and sighed deeply. Of all the things she could be dealing with, this was probably one of the most bizarre. "Tell her no."
