They stood there motionless. The pool of blood under Elizabeth's body was slowly spreading.

Sakura: Did we succeed? Tsunade, do you think we really killed her?

Tsunade: It would seem.

She got down on her knees and used her medical expertise to check for any signs of life she knew.

Tsunade: I can say she's dead.

Hinata: Did you really kill her, Mom?

Tsunade: Yes, and I see that didn't cancel our various transformations.

Naruto: How long have you been planning this?

Sakura: the very evening of our arrival.

Sasuke: That's nice but how are we going to get home. From what I observe, we are still trapped on this island.

Ino: Won't the audience react?

Tsunade: From what we have observed there is only her as a member and there is no evidence that there are other people involved.

Hanabi: what do we do now?

Tsunade: As Mother, I mean, Hokage I'm taking back command. We will separate into teams of 2 to look for a solution to fulfill our 2 objectives which are to unlock our chakra and return to Konoha.

Sasuke and Sakura take care of you looking north of the island. Hinata and Hanabi you take care of the south. Me and Ino will search the hotel.

Naruto: what about me?

Tsunade: you stay here, and you watch that this corpse remains dead I have a bad feeling about it.

Naruto: what do you think she will get up as soon as we have our backs turned.

Tsunade: no, but at the slightest movement you stab her again. Enough wasted time, disperse and come back here in 3 hours.

The girls left the dining room one by one, and Naruto was left alone with the still warm corpse of the facilitator.

Sasuke and Sakura had been walking for several minutes along a path heading towards the north of the island.

Sasuke: You really did.

Sakura hesitated to answer.

Sakura: We didn't really have a choice.

Sasuke: And you didn't think it would be a good idea to share your plan with the rest of us.

Sakura: We thought the plan would have a better chance of success if as few people as possible knew about it.

Sasuke: That's what bothers me if it's a show and we're constantly being watched, how come she didn't know?

Sakura: you mean...

Sasuke: I don't know what that means, and it worries me. Something is wrong with this story and time I won't know what I'll be on my guard.

Sakura didn't answer. Sasuke's words made sense. However, she refused to believe in the hypothesis of the trap. So, they moved forward in silence until they reached a cliff. The sea stretched before them as far as the eye could see.

Sakura: You don't think we're stuck here.

Sasuke: I imagine if that's the case this show will get what it wanted. Naruto will have his harem.

Sakura: I know this is hard for you to accept.

Sasuke: Do you really think you understand my pain??? Can you imagine what it feels like as a man to dream of being pregnant. From this finding to give birth to a child then the other.

Sakura: No, I can't.

Sasuke: And the worst part of it all was that in that dreams I was happy.

Hinata: I still can't believe it. They dared.

Hanabi: That's good news, isn't it?

Hinata: I don't know. I'm sure it's not over. People who can do all of this don't just disappear with a knife in their heart. Elizabeth or another member of the production will appear to settle the situation.

Hanabi: but it's dangerous, you must warn the others.

Hinata: not so fast. We're not going to say anything.

Hanabi: but why?

Hinata: First, it's only a hypothesis we have no proof. Then if we help Sakura and Tsunade, we risk suffering their punishment with her. And finally, we must think about how we can take advantage of it.

Hanabi: take advantage of it?

Hinata: yes, because we are currently stuck on this island and that whatever the scenario. So, either way we're going to end up in Master's harem. The question is how it will happen. Master has not yet realized this; it is our duty to help him.

Hanabi: and how can we do that? First, we will show him our affection and we will improvise as we go.

***

Tsunade and Ino searched the different rooms of the hotel in search of either a means of transport or a means of communication. She had found a store of ****, a pantry, an infirmary, a swimming pool, and bedrooms. Lots of rooms.

Tsunade: I guess it's normal for a hotel to have so many rooms, but I would have liked to find something else.

Ino: If we don't find a way to leave the island, what will happen?

Tsunade: I imagine that the wish to create a harem for Naruto will take shape.

Ino: our transformations are still in place do you think there is something else still in place?

Tsunade wanted to answer but began to think. There was nothing to confirm that the VP system had disappeared. Also, the passage order to sleep with Naruto could still be active. But worse than all the trials and mini games could still happen.

Tsunade: It's a possibility. We will have the answer before this evening for the running order.

Ino: what will happen if the production members come to restore the game.

Tsunade: I think then I will receive a sanction for my actions. But let's not get depressed, the 3 hours are almost over, let's go back to the dining room.

Naruto was pacing around the dining room. It had been almost two and a half hours since they left to explore the island. 2:30 a.m. that he had remained next to Elizabeth's corpse. He still had a hard time believing it. Oh, don't take him for a saint either, he was a ninja. He had killed before, but never in cold blood. No, his main problem was the question: what now?

Naruto: What's going to happen? I doubt that there is any means of transport or communication on this island.

He asked the question, but he was smart enough to find the answer. Initially not much would happen but given the transformations affecting them it would inevitably end up with a harem. The worst part was that he was starting to like the thought.

Naruto: I'm going to have a harem, and, in a way, I like it.

He was almost ashamed to admit it, but it was the truth. Suddenly a voice spoke behind his back.

???: I'm glad you finally admit it.
