Naruto - The Wind Calamity - Chapter 66 : Scary Mom! (Patreon)

He flickered to get a couple of gifts for both his teammates. And then flickered to the hospital and enquired about the room they were in.

He quickly found their room and entered it. Both of them were up.

Hoka's left leg seemed to be plastered. He had a few more bandages on him.

Mieko, on the other hand, was put in enough bandages that one could easily mistake her for a Mummy.

As soon as Fujin entered, they both gave Fujin a stinking eye. Seeing their childish reactions, Fujin couldn't help but smile, 'I really should have brought them burnol, haha'

Seeing that neither of them wanted to talk first, he greeted them, "Hey guys. How are you doing?" Both of them snorted and looked away.

Fujin sighed loudly and said, "After I went through all the trouble of getting you something. Oh well, I guess I'll just eat it myself."

That attracted their attention. They saw a pack of cookies and a set of dango in Fujin's outstretched hands.

In under a second, Hoka snatched the cookies, while Mieko snatched the dango.

They both began eating it right away. While they were eating, Fujin tilted his head while looking at Mieko and asked, "Shouldn't you check whether they are real or just clones first?"

That pushed Mieko over the edge. She instantly got up and yelled, "Bastard. The next time I'll beat you up. Wait, no need for next time, I'll beat you up right now."

Stating that, she got off her bed. Fujin created distance between them and asked, "Oh, and are you sure I'm not just a clone?"

She was about to make a move when a Middle-aged lady walked into the room hearing the commotion. Her features were similar to Mieko's, just much more mature.

She saw Mieko standing up and narrowed her eyes and asked, "Why are you out of your bed?"

Mieko immediately apologized, "Sorry Mom" and jumped back into her bed. Fujin smiled at her antiques, 'Oh, looks like she is terrified of her mother.'

Mieko grabbed her 2nd dango stick and was about to eat it when the dango disappeared from her hand. Mieko turned her head to see her mom standing next to her bed, holding her dango as well as all the remaining dango in her hands.

Her mom looked into her eyes and said strictly, "You are recovering, young lady. Why are you eating Dango instead of the fruits that I brought for you?"

Mieko nervously replied, "Sorry Mom. But I have already healed completely. So it should be fine if I eat a little bit of Dango, right?"

Mieko's mom didn't reply and just stared Mieko into her eyes. The staredown continued for 30 seconds before Mieko backed down and apologized again, "Sorry Mom. I was wrong."

Her mother sighed, and then began giving her a long lecture!

Fujin's eye twitched at this interaction. He was thoroughly amused by this interaction, 'She spoke thrice. All 3 times she started with Sorry Mom. This is funny.'

Hoka had already seen how strict Mieko's mother was on the day before. However, instead of finding the situation amusing and laughing secretly, he first stuffed all the cookies in his mouth and gulped them down rapidly.

Mieko's mom noticed this and stared at him as well. However, he never looked at her and kept looking outside the window.

She continued her lecture and lectured Mieko for 5 minutes straight. During these 5 minutes, Hoka kept awkwardly staring in another direction, while Fujin awkwardly stood next to him.

Mieko meanwhile, looked down at the bed the whole time, while trying not to cry at the injustice she was facing, 'First that irritating guy appeared and teased me. He did makeup by bringing me my favorite dango, but he taunted me once again. And then, my own mother took those dango away! Not to mention, she's also lecturing me in front of my teammates.’

After lecturing her, she looked at Fujin and said in a straight voice while staring at him, “Fujin-kun, you first beat my little girl, and then you brought her dango to eat?”

Now Fujin became alert, ‘Is she going to lecture me as well?’ He quickly replied, “Sorry auntie. Sensei said that she was already healed yesterday. So I didn’t think it'd be an issue.”

Before she could reply, he looked at Hoka and Mieko and said, “I have some work to do with Sensei. I’ll see you around later.”

Without waiting for anyone’s response, he flickered out of the window. Hoka looked enviously at the window, ‘At least he could run away. I’m stuck here.’ Mieko, on the other hand, was too embarrassed to think about anything.

Mieko’s mom was surprised. She said to her, “Your teammate can lie with a straight face without any embarrassment. You were right about him.”

Hearing that, Hoka looked toward Mieko’s mom and saw her staring at the empty cup that had his pudding. He screamed internally in horror, ‘Crap!’


Fujin was walking on the streets while thinking, ‘Well, that was awkward. No wonder she acts like a stuck-up bitch all the time. She probably spends all the time back home being embarrassed.

Anyways, both of them have pretty much healed. So we should start taking missions on the day after tomorrow. So how should I spend these 2 days?’

After thinking for a while, he sighed, 'Other than training, I really haven't gotten any hobby in this world. Perhaps Fuinjutsu, but that too is a part of training.'

After thinking for a bit more, he had an amusing idea, 'Should I recreate some of the famous manga or novels from the past world in here? After all, the literature here is pretty underdeveloped due to constant wars and the lack of a safe environment. So those manga and novels should be a complete hit.'

He analyzed the idea more. But soon he shook his head, 'While I remember their general stories and plot, I don't really remember all the details… It's just been way too long. Not to mention, it'll take a lot of time. Not something I can spare right now.'

Not having anything to do, he explored other restaurants around Konoha and later visited and relaxed in the famous hot spring bath in the village.


A couple of days later, team Renjiro assembled outside the Hokage building.
