Chapter 177: CH 177
"Oh for sure." Naruto said as he tried to push himself up onto his elbows, "And I'll repay you by not telling Gamabunta that you blew up his stockpiles of sake when you were practicing Katon: Gamayu Endan (Fire Release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet)."
"Asshole." Gamakichi complained, "I told you that in confidentiality."
Naruto let out a weak laugh, "You told me that in a bald-faced alcoholic haze. Gamatatsu may be dumb but at least he holds his liquor better than you."
"Whatever." Gamakichi dismissed, "Summon me to hang out later, or to meet that silver-haired girl you live with that has the nice ta-tas again. You were right, they are great." Naruto opened his mouth to curse Gamakichi out and ask how the hell he knew he said that when the toad grinned at him, "I'm not the only one that says confidential stuff when I'm smashed Mr. Gropey no Hentai. Catch you around Naruto-nii." He then dispelled in a puff of white smoke to return to his mountain.
Naruto sighed and rolled over onto his back, looking straight up at the stars, "Come out Sai. I need you to drag me back to the apartment anyway... I'm wiped out."
Sai appeared from the tree line inside of the gates of the Forest of Death with a plain look on his face, "You have groped Hamako-san?"
Naruto glared at him, "She's always coming in my bed to sleep with me and I tense up at night, fratricide of a grabby nature is par the course if she keeps doing it." "Whatever you say Naruto-senpai." Sai said, getting a growl from Naruto, "Danzo-sama has sent me to inform you that he's already given you everything he could conjure on the Akatsuki."
Naruto narrowed his eyes, "Everything he could or everything he would? Don't give me that crap Sai-kouhai, I know Danzo-jiji knows more than he's giving me."
Sai blinked emotionlessly, "He has handed over everything to you that corresponds to your current situation. Nothing else he has on Akatsuki is relevant to your plight. I made sure to push your suspicion to the contrary on him to get him to say as much."
