I'm in Naruto, but the system says I'm in One Piece.

As usual, Minato was dressed in sportswear, looking very casual.

"Are you awake, You? Sit down for a moment. I'll finish cooking these two dishes and then we can eat."

"Kushina will be here soon too."

Upon hearing what the little sun said, Hoshino Yu, who had been smiling, immediately collapsed.

"No way, you're using my house as a date spot? Don't you know I'm single?"

"I know."

"So you want me to eat your dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing two people being lovey-dovey)?"

"Dog food?" Upon hearing this, Minato turned to look at Hoshino Yu with some confusion. "What does this have to do with dog food?"

"You really are a natural airhead." Hoshino Yu sighed and covered his forehead. "Alright, alright, you sit down first, I'll go wash up."

After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.

Seeing this, Minato could only shake his head with a helpless smile.

Their relationship did not become distant despite the reduced number of times they met after becoming ninjas.

It was summer at the time.

After returning to her room and choosing a white short-sleeved outfit, Hoshino Yu went into the bathroom and took a shower.

Stimulated by the cold water, his thoughts began to clear.

He wasn't entirely sure what his current skill level was.

When I fought Orochimaru before, I could clearly feel immense pressure.

However, when he later fought Kakuzu, he felt that killing him instantly would be easy, given the information gap between them.

What if there's no intelligence?

However, he also knew that this was not very realistic. He knew all the named characters in the original work and the methods they possessed very well, unless someone who defied common sense appeared.

For example, if Vegeta or something came from outer space, then there would be no solution.

He already possesses quite a few abilities, and given that Sage Mode is not so easy to learn, developing the Rumble-Rumble Fruit and acquiring the three types of Haki through missions are his best reliance.

Chakra doesn't play a significant role for him, but he can't do without it either.

Another aspect is the development of bloodline limits. By combining the two chakra natures of Water Release and Fire Release, one can fuse them to create Boil Release, and further develop Boil Release's unparalleled strength.

Add to that the near-light speed after elementalization, and then add a layer of Armament Haki, and you'll have high damage output from both your left and right hands.

Then, with the development of Sage Mode, and the enhancement of Sage Mode, plus the maxing out of Yin-Yang Release chakra, it should be no problem for them to dominate the ninja world in terms of combat power.

Once her thoughts were clear, Hoshino Yu turned off the shower and took a dry towel to wipe her body.

After getting dressed, he slowly walked downstairs.

"Yu! You're awake!"

As soon as he came downstairs, he heard Kushina's loud voice greeting him.

"Kushina, could you please turn your voice down a bit? You're making me deaf..."

Hoshino Yu said with a hint of helplessness.

To be honest, there are no wrong nicknames, only wrong names; the name "Blood Red Pepper" is rightfully hers.

Kushina blushed upon hearing this, and while looking down, she couldn't help but glance at Minato, who was serving dishes to the side.

In the past, when Kushina met Hoshino Yu, she might still have called him Yu-kun, but ever since Minato and the others appeared together and helped her beat up the Maruyama brothers, their relationship changed from classmates to friends.

However, because of Minato, the group got along quite well before.

Once Minato had served all the food, Hoshino Yu and Kushina took their seats.

"I'm going to start eating." *3

The three greeted each other with their hands clasped together, and then began to eat heartily.

During the days that Hoshino Yu was away on missions, he hadn't eaten anything good. Now that Minato had cooked such delicious food, he was almost ready to eat it all.

Seeing his friend in this state, Minato Namikaze looked at Kushina with a helpless expression.

"Yu, you look like you haven't eaten in days. Have you not eaten anything while you've been on missions?"

"I've eaten, I've eaten," Hoshino Yu said, swallowing what was in his mouth and looking at Kushina. "But to be honest, Minato's cooking suits my taste better."

"Kushina, you're in for a treat."

Upon hearing this, Kushina's face flushed red again, and she was at a loss for words.

Minato wasn't worried about his problem, but was curious about what he had encountered during his missions.

"Yu, this mission took so long, did something happen?"

"Yes, I encountered a spirit beast in the wild and then made a spirit contract with it."

"A summoning beast?" Minato raised an eyebrow. "Big or small?"

"It has to be big, I like it bigger. If it's small, I'd rather not sign it at all," Hoshino Yu said, looking up at Minato.

Although this sounds strange, the point is valid.

The three then ate and chatted, and after finishing all the food on the table, they were all quite full.

After Minato finished washing the dishes, Hoshino Yu brewed a cup of hot tea for each of them.

After drinking the hot tea, Hoshino Yu felt as if he had returned to the peaceful days of his past life.

How wonderful! Now someone is cooking and someone is washing the dishes.

I wish it could be like this every day...

However, he immediately dismissed the idea as soon as it came to mind.

This kind of flag must not be displayed.

"Minato, who's your Jonin teacher? And who's your team?"

Minato Namikaze blew on the hot tea in his hand, took a leisurely sip, and then looked up at Yuu Hoshino with a smile:

Why don't you take a guess?

Hoshino Yu rolled her eyes, then looked at Kushina:

"Kushina, if he won't tell you, then you will."

Upon hearing this, Kushina glanced at Minato, who was beaming with smiles, and said with a hint of helplessness:

"You know him too, right? His team leader is a Jonin."

"I know him too?"

Hoshino Yu frowned slightly, immediately recalling the Jonin she knew.

How many Jonin are there in the village? Apart from the Anbu and Root members, there aren't many who can lead a team of Jonin.

He only knew a few people: the senior members of the Tanaka family, the senior members of the Akimichi family, Sakumo Hatake, Orochimaru...

As for those major clans, such as the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan, he basically didn't know any of them.

"I know them..." Hoshino Yu pondered for a moment, then looked at the two of them again.

Both of them had smiles on their faces, smiles that made him feel a little creeped out.

"Wait a minute, you're playing dumb with me. Could it be... you've joined Orochimaru's group?"

Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze placed his hot tea on the table, crossed his arms, and leaned back slightly, saying:

"That's right, Orochimaru-sensei is my team leader Jonin."

"??"

Dude, I can understand graduating early and not meeting Jiraiya, but now you're telling me Orochimaru is your Jonin leader?

So, Hiruzen Sarutobi → Orochimaru → Yu Hoshino = Minato Namikaze?

What's this called?

If Orochimaru were to go mad again and become a rogue ninja in the future, wouldn't my entire lineage, including the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, all become rogue ninja?

Hoshino Yu looked astonished, and her mind suddenly couldn't quite process what was happening.
