Chapter 81 - 81 (1/2)

Leaving the seventh training ground, Ryo rushed straight home. It had been a year and a half since he saw his mother Chinse, and he missed her so much.

In his clan's land, Ryo's entrance wasn't sensed. After all, everyone's attention was elsewhere.

The Yamanaka clan was all really busy. The clan's head, Inoichi Yamanaka, was getting married. So everyone was preparing for the wedding.

Ryo entered the house where his mother lived, and didn't find anyone. He looked around and eventually had no choice but to enter Sage Mode. When he did that, he could easily locate her.

To his surprise, his mother was in a hotel in Konoha that's usually rented by foreigners. Ryo did not remember that his mother had friends outside the village.

So he left Sage mode and entered the Ice Lightning Chakra mode instead. He blinked out and soon arrived at the Hotel.

It looked very luxurious and had a high-end feel to it. Ryo didn't want to be stalled by the hotel clerk so he blinked directly to the second floor.

At his speed in the Ice lightning Chakra mode, even the three tomoe Sharingan could only capture his trajectory. No one was able to see him entering.

Coming in front of the room where his mother was, he heard a burst of laughter inside. Hearing his mother laugh made his feel warm inside.

”Knock Knock”

”Who's there?” asked a woman in the room.

”Hello, I'm Ryo Yamanaka. Is my mother Chinse in the room? I…”

He wasn't through talking when the door was opened. Hearing her son's voice, Chinse immediately ran towards him.

Looking at the son she hadn't seen for a year and half, now almost as tall as her, Chinse couldn't hold her tears.

”Hey, Chinse san, do you want to enter?” said the woman in the room.

The two entered the room, and Chinse remained excited. It actually took a good while for her to calm down.

”Ryo, this is Kazuha, your brother's fiancée.” Before asking about Ryo's situation on the battlefield, Chinse introduced the other woman in the room to him.

Ryo realized that this other woman was Inoichi's fiancée. She was beautiful and very kind. Her eyes and eyebrows were actually similar to his mother's.

The main thing making her stand out was her civilian clothing. Well, Ryoko did tell him that she was indeed a civilian.

”Hi I'm Ryo Yamanaka, pleased to meet you!”

”And I'm Kazuha, it's my p_l_e_a_s_u_r_e!”

After the introductions, Kazuha kept staring at Ryo for a while. She was very interested in this super genius Yamanaka that everyone was talking about.

”Chinse san, I don't want to hide anything from Ryo. I heard Inoichi say before that the two are brothers.” Said Kazuha.

”Mother, sister, what can I do for you?” Her words made Ryo embarrassed, so he actually bowed his head saying that.

”Kazuha is a Ninja from the Water Country, from the Hidden Mist village. Inoichi brought her back with him from the battlefield.” Said Chinse.

Ryo felt thunderstruck by the news. He finally understood why Ino's mother didn't seem to stand out all. How did this happen?

After the 4th Ninja World War, the ninja villages became open to each-other. Mutual marriages became a common thing.

But now, this is the period in which the 3rd World War is getting to its fiercest point. But still, Inoichi's bride is from the Hidden Mist?
