《Sasuke Uchiha’s Isekai Domination》 Chapter 1: Sakura Harunos Confession Chapter 1: Sakura Haruno''s Confession As a shut-in otaku, Takahashi Haruto could only fantasize about anime waifus, game beauties, and lazing around while waiting for death. Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine he would actually travel to another world. When he opened his eyes, touched his face, jumped around, and felt his own heartbeat and breathing, he looked in the mirror. ¡°Oh my god!¡± ¡°I actually became Sasuke Uchiha?¡± ¡°Is this some kind of joke?¡± Am I dreaming? To confirm, Sasuke pinched his thigh. "Ouch!" The pain was real. In the Naruto universe, while Sasuke might be the second male lead, his good looks and popularity rivaled that of the protagonist, Naruto Uzumaki. ¡°Wait a minute!¡± ¡°What time period is this?¡± As someone who once lived his wildest fantasies in his dreams, the now-reincarnated Sasuke wasn¡¯t nervous at all. First, he decided to check his abilities. ¡°Wait a second! Where¡¯s my system? A proper isekai needs a system!¡±Reading on this site? This novel is published elsewhere. Support the author by seeking out the original. Sasuke called out, ¡°System!¡± To his astonishment, a transparent interface appeared in the void, accompanied by a voice: [Host, I¡¯m here.] Sasuke marveled, ¡°Wow, what a user-friendly system.¡± [Thank you for the compliment, Host!] ¡°What kind of system do I have?¡± Sasuke asked. ¡°How do I level up and complete missions?¡± [This is the Invincible Check-In System. Simply trigger a check-in event to receive invincible rewards.] Sasuke¡¯s eyes lit up. ¡°I love it! A check-in system is simple and fits my lazy personality perfectly.¡± ¡°So, where do I start checking in?¡± [The Invincible Check-In System doesn¡¯t assign direct tasks. It¡¯s similar to the open-world gameplay in *Genshin Impact*¡ªyou¡¯ll need to explore to find check-in opportunities.] Exploration-based? Sasuke was intrigued yet slightly nervous. ¡°Will it be hard?¡± [Not at all, Host,] the system reassured him. [Simply touching certain objects will trigger hidden exploration missions and grant rewards.] Nodding in understanding, Sasuke replied, ¡°Alright then, let¡¯s give it a shot.¡± He searched around the room but couldn¡¯t find anything to trigger a check-in. ¡°This might be trickier than I thought.¡± Suddenly, he felt an itch in his eyes and rubbed them. To his surprise, the system chimed in: [Congratulations, Host, you¡¯ve successfully checked in. Reward: Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan upgrade.] Instantly, his eyes burned with energy, as though a source of immense power had been unlocked. ¡°Damn!¡± Sasuke exclaimed, stunned. ¡°That was so easy? I just touched my eyes, and my Sharingan evolved?¡± ¡°Awesome!¡± Excited, Sasuke continued exploring his body. He touched his arms and legs, but nothing happened. Then, when his hand brushed near his abdomen¡ª [Ding!] [Congratulations, Host, for checking in. Chakra level upgraded to J¨­nin.] In an instant, his dantian surged with overwhelming chakra, filling him with warmth. Sasuke felt so powerful that he believed he could kill an elephant with a single punch. ¡°I¡¯m so strong now!¡± Sasuke was elated. Checking in had given him the Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan and chakra at the J¨­nin level. ¡°As expected of the Invincible Check-In System! At this rate, the Naruto world is mine for the taking!¡± He laughed maniacally. ¡°Mwahahaha!¡± Just as Sasuke was celebrating his newfound power, a knock came at the door. Opening it, he saw a petite girl with pink hair standing outside. She wore a red slit dress resembling a qipao, accentuating her slender and alluring figure. ¡°Haruno Sakura¡­¡± Sasuke was surprised. Up close, Sakura¡¯s delicate skin glowed with a rosy tint, and her shy, youthful face looked incredibly adorable. Wow, a real-life anime beauty, Sasuke thought. Her faint, sweet fragrance lingered in the air. ¡°Sakura, what¡¯s up?¡± Sasuke asked. What came next shocked him to his core. ¡°Sasuke, I like you. Will you be my boyfriend?¡± Sakura said, her cheeks bright red as she shyly offered him a homemade meal. This¡­ An invincible check-in at the start. And now, a confession from a beautiful girl? What a thrilling start to his new life! In the original series, Sasuke would have likely rejected her outright. But this wasn¡¯t the original Sasuke. Takahashi Haruto, now Sasuke, was anything but cold and rigid. ¡°Well then, Sakura, from now on, you¡¯re my girlfriend,¡± Sasuke declared confidently. Chapter 2: Girlfriend Sakura Chapter 2: Girlfriend Sakura Sakura Haruno widened her eyes, thinking she must have misheard. Whenever she came to see Sasuke-kun in the past, she was either turned away or left empty-handed. Sasuke had never shown her a kind face! He always wore a stern expression, as if the entire world owed him money. Yet, despite this, Sakura had never given up on her feelings for Sasuke. Her devotion even caused a rift with her childhood friend and closest companion, Ino Yamanaka, as they both grew up liking the same person. --- ¡°Sas... Sasuke, what did you just say?¡± Sakura lifted her delicate, fair face, which was now flushed with a rosy hue. Her expression was a mixture of shyness and disbelief, as though she were dreaming. Sasuke looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, her eyes filled with joy directed solely at him. Before he transmigrated, as an otaku, he never received such treatment. ¡®This is Sakura Haruno, the main heroine of Naruto!¡¯ To have her so devoted from the start... If it weren¡¯t for the [Invincible Sign-In System], Sasuke might not have had the courage to navigate this unfamiliar world. But now, with his Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan and Jonin-level chakra reserves, even someone as strong as Kakashi Hatake would have to bow before him and call him ¡°Master!¡± Sakura, always conscious of her appearance, had meticulously maintained her pink hair, which looked exceptionally glossy and beautiful at this moment. Sasuke flashed a confident, handsome smile. ¡°Silly girl, of course, I meant what I said.¡± ¡°From now on, you¡¯re my girlfriend.¡± If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. Although Sakura¡¯s personality in the original series wasn¡¯t particularly likable and her popularity paled compared to Hinata¡¯s, it was mainly because the audience viewed Naruto Uzumaki as the protagonist. Naruto¡¯s unrequited love for Sakura, his persistent devotion, and her often dismissive attitude made her come across as ungrateful. Compared to Hinata¡¯s unwavering affection for Naruto, Sakura seemed far less endearing. But think about it from another perspective: If Sasuke Uchiha were the protagonist instead? Sakura¡¯s obsession with Sasuke¡¯s good looks might be a given, but throughout the entire series, she never wavered in her feelings for him. Her heart always belonged to Sasuke, no matter what. A girl this devoted, with her eyes filled only with him¡ªhow could Sasuke, now a transmigrated otaku, possibly reject her? --- ¡®Of course, hehe, all the beautiful girls in Naruto will be mine!¡¯ Having transmigrated to this world of gorgeous anime characters and possessing Sasuke¡¯s handsome features, there was no way he wouldn¡¯t create a massive harem. ¡°Sakura, I¡¯ve seen all the things you¡¯ve done for me over the years and how deeply you care for me.¡± Sasuke spoke sincerely. ¡°Sakura, become my girlfriend.¡± ¡°Sasuke¡ª!¡± At that moment, Sakura¡¯s heart raced like a deer caught in headlights. She had never imagined that her brave confession today, accompanied by a gift for Sasuke, would actually move him. She was overjoyed! Overwhelmed with emotion! Unable to contain herself, Sakura threw herself into Sasuke¡¯s arms. For countless nights, she had dreamed of being with him... Now, her wish had finally come true. To confirm that this wasn¡¯t just a dream but reality, she clung tightly to Sasuke. Sasuke, of course, welcomed her embrace. Unlike Sakura, who had pined for Sasuke for years, the otaku he had once been had fantasized endlessly about intimate moments with beautiful anime girls. Now, his dream had become reality. ¡°Sasuke, Sasuke, I... I like you so much! I really, really like you!¡± Having harbored feelings for him since childhood, Sakura was overwhelmed by emotions now that Sasuke had suddenly accepted her. Tears of joy welled up in her eyes as she poured her heart out to him. Sasuke held her close, savoring the sweetness of being embraced by an anime heroine. ¡®So this is what it feels like to hug an anime waifu. It¡¯s even better than I imagined.¡¯ He now fully understood why he had always been drawn to anime girls and characters in games. It wasn¡¯t just because they were beautiful, with perfect bodies and personalities. It was because they embodied the ideal, free from the flaws of real-life women. Sasuke silently marveled, ¡®I love this anime world. I adore these anime girls.¡¯ --- Sakura, finding emotional solace, felt truly cherished. Sasuke, on the other hand, felt his otaku fantasies fulfilled. The two embraced each other for a long time, both too moved to let go. After a while, Sakura calmed down and started to feel a twinge of doubt. ¡®Is this really Sasuke-kun in front of me?¡¯ How could he have changed so much? If Sasuke had been moved by her dedication and decided to accept her feelings, that would have been understandable. But... ¡®Could it be...? This isn¡¯t Sasuke-kun?¡¯ ¡®What if it¡¯s Naruto Uzumaki transformed to look like Sasuke?¡¯ The thought made her face turn pale. She remembered a specific moment from the original series when Naruto had ambushed Sasuke, transformed into his likeness, and attempted to deceive Sakura, even trying to steal her first kiss. It had been a shocking and unforgivable act. Now, with Sasuke acting so differently, Sakura couldn¡¯t help but suspect that this might not be the real Sasuke. Quickly, Sakura pushed him away. Her pink hair was slightly messy, and her red qipao outfit looked disheveled. Her face was flushed, a mix of shyness, gratitude, and suspicion. Her gaze became more serious as she studied Sasuke closely. ¡°Sasuke, I¡¯m so happy that you¡¯ve accepted me as your girlfriend¡­¡± ¡°But!¡± ¡°Are you really Sasuke?¡± Sasuke froze for a moment, realizing he might have overdone it earlier. His mind raced. He had three options. The first was to come clean and admit he was a transmigrator, now inhabiting Sasuke¡¯s body. But that was out of the question¡ªhe would never reveal that secret. The second option was to use the [Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan] he had just unlocked. By casting a genjutsu, he could erase Sakura¡¯s doubts completely. However, resorting to genjutsu seemed like a cheap move. Winning someone¡¯s love through illusions felt hollow. So, Sasuke decided on the third option: he would earn Sakura¡¯s trust through genuine emotions. And if that didn¡¯t work, well, there was always genjutsu as a last resort. Chapter 3: Anime Beauties, My Wives Chapter 3: Anime Beauties, My Wives "Sakura, what do you think?" Sasuke took a step back, smiling as he asked, "I admit, I¡¯m not quite the same as before. If you can¡¯t accept this version of me, I won¡¯t hold it against you." "You can leave if you want." Sasuke knew all too well that Sakura Haruno would never truly leave him in this lifetime. Winning over Sakura was ridiculously easy for him. The real challenge would come later when it came to Hinata and Tsunade. Getting his harem to coexist peacefully would be even harder. But Sasuke wasn¡¯t one to give up. After all, he¡¯d been given the rare chance to reincarnate into the Naruto world. There was no way he wouldn¡¯t fulfill the wishes he had during his otaku days. All the anime beauties he loved¡ªhe was determined to make them his wives. In real life, he had been timid and reserved. That was reality¡ªhe had no choice. But here, in this anime world, he could unleash himself fully. Everything he liked, he would claim. Everything he hated, he would destroy. Sakura bit her lip, her shy and indecisive expression making her look incredibly adorable. She was like a delicate flower, waiting to see what kind of gardener would handle her. Sakura had her flaws, but she wasn¡¯t beyond saving. She didn¡¯t like Naruto, and the Sasuke in the original story was someone she loved but could never truly have. Now, the Sasuke before her was still just as handsome and captivating. However, his personality and his attitude toward her had changed dramatically. "I... I..." Before Sakura could finish her sentence, Sasuke interrupted her. "Don¡¯t tell me you don¡¯t know. Don¡¯t hesitate." The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. "Remember, Sakura, you came to me today, bringing gifts and confessing your feelings." "I didn¡¯t pursue you. You came to me, Sakura." Sakura snapped out of her daze, making her decision. Even though this Sasuke felt a bit different, he was still the Sasuke she loved. There was only one Sasuke in the entire world. "Sasuke, I understand now," Sakura said, gathering her courage. "But I want to know¡ªare you truly Sasuke, or could you be Naruto in disguise?" Sasuke let out a cold, mischievous laugh. "Naruto? Hmph, that idiot can use his transformation jutsu to mimic my appearance, but could he ever truly become me, Uchiha Sasuke?" So arrogant! And yet, that arrogance was exactly what defined Sasuke¡ªthe innate superiority that Sakura found so irresistible. It was something Naruto could never imitate, no matter how hard he tried. And there was Sasuke¡¯s intelligence¡ªso different from Naruto¡¯s usual cluelessness. Naruto always acted without thinking, oblivious to the nuances of people and situations. "Sakura..." Sasuke suddenly moved, his speed astonishing. With his current chakra reserves at the level of a J¨­nin, coupled with his Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan, his strength was unparalleled. While his combat experience might still be lacking, he was already stronger than most of the J¨­nin in Konoha. And Sakura? She hadn¡¯t even graduated from the Ninja Academy yet. "Too fast!" Sakura gasped, shocked by his speed. In the next moment, Sasuke reached out and grabbed Sakura¡¯s soft, delicate hand. It was incredibly smooth¡ªjust as perfect as he¡¯d imagined an anime beauty¡¯s hand would be. "Feel carefully. See for yourself whether I¡¯m the real Sasuke or just Naruto in disguise." Sasuke didn¡¯t blame Sakura for being cautious. Even if she was suspicious, there was no way Naruto could measure up to him. Sakura blushed deeply, her small face burning. Her hand trembled, and her heart raced wildly. What a dominating Sasuke! He wasn¡¯t the same distant and cold Sasuke she once knew. This Sasuke was bolder, more assertive¡ªlike a domineering CEO with a demure, submissive wife. "I can feel it... You¡¯re not Naruto in disguise. You¡¯re the Sasuke I love," Sakura finally said. Hearing her words, Sasuke didn¡¯t hold back. He pulled her into his arms and... things that couldn¡¯t be described happened. Sakura couldn¡¯t believe what was happening¡ªit felt like a dream. This Sasuke was so commanding, so overwhelming. Sasuke cherished the moment. Though he had only recently reincarnated, he had spent countless hours fantasizing about Sakura and Hinata back in his otaku days. Now, finally, he could turn those fantasies into reality. After a long while, Sasuke finally released Sakura. He gently held her in his arms. "Sakura, you¡¯re beautiful, but your figure still needs some work. Let me help you improve it... in ways that can¡¯t be described." Sakura¡¯s face turned bright red. She hadn¡¯t expected Sasuke to be so direct¡ªshe wasn¡¯t prepared for this at all. "Sasuke-kun..." Sasuke leaned in and whispered into her flushed ear, "If you want to be my girlfriend, this is what¡¯s expected." With that, he led her into his room. Sakura never imagined that confessing to Sasuke today would lead to this. Not only had she become his girlfriend, but she had also transformed from a girl into a woman. As night fell... "Sasuke-kun..." "Call me husband," Sasuke said with a loving tone. Sakura was still adjusting to her newfound identity as a woman, but Sasuke¡¯s affectionate words quickly melted her reservations. "Hu... Husband..." she stammered shyly. Exhausted but happy, she started getting dressed. "It¡¯s late. I need to go home. Otherwise, my parents will scold me." In the original story, Sakura didn¡¯t have the best relationship with her family early on. She found her mother too naggy and her father too mediocre. This was part of why people disliked her in the beginning. However, as Sakura matured, she grew to appreciate her parents, and her family became warm and loving. Sasuke chuckled. "Now that I¡¯m your boyfriend, I¡¯ll take you home." "Sasuke..." Sakura hadn¡¯t expected him to be not only domineering but also thoughtful. Sasuke helped her tidy her hair and used his J¨­nin-level chakra to restore some of her stamina. He smiled and said, "When we¡¯re alone, call me husband." "And I¡¯ll call you my wife." Sakura blushed and whispered, "Husband¡­¡± Chapter 4: The Beauty Chapter 4: The Beauty Love is something people seem to instinctively understand without needing a teacher. Sasuke still felt a bit dazed, finding it hard to believe. ... "Darling, you''re amazing." Sasuke chuckled. "Don''t worry, Sakura. Your husband will protect you well." The world of the Shinobi was far from peaceful; in fact, it was extremely dangerous. In the original story, Sakura''s long, beautiful pink hair was something that stood out. But after facing hardships, she cut it short and kept it that way. Sasuke silently vowed that his wife''s beautiful hair was something he would protect, no matter what. Perhaps sensing Sasuke''s protective aura, Sakura was deeply moved. Then, blushing, she said, "I really should be going now." "Wait a moment." Sasuke stood up again, rummaging through the room. Before the massacre of his clan, Sasuke had lived the life of a pampered heir, a true second-generation wealthy kid. Now, though he was an orphan like Uzumaki Naruto, his circumstances were still far better than Naruto¡¯s. At least he had access to money when he needed it. After finding some cash, Sasuke grabbed Sakura¡¯s hand. "Let¡¯s go; I¡¯ll walk you home." They stepped out of the house. The night sky was crisp and clear, and Sasuke couldn''t help but marvel. ''This really is the world of an anime.'' ''From now on, my life will be extraordinary, filled with happiness and endless possibilities.'' Sakura''s face turned a deep red because Sasuke''s hands were being rather... inappropriate in a way that couldn''t be described. Luckily, it was nighttime, and there weren¡¯t many people around, sparing them from being seen. Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. ''Sasuke has changed so much,'' Sakura thought. The feeling was both sweet and slightly overwhelming. For Sakura, this was her first relationship. If not for Sasuke¡¯s tenderness during their daytime intimacy, leaving her with sweet memories, it might have been hard for her to accept the transition from girl to woman so quickly. ... "Come on, Sakura. There''s an Ichiraku Ramen over there." Sasuke noticed the familiar ramen shop in the village and felt a wave of nostalgia. Back when he was a shut-in in his original world, he had often seen Naruto coming here to eat, treating it as the best food in existence. But now, Sasuke wasn''t alone. With his arm around Sakura, he asked gently, "We¡¯ve been busy all day and haven¡¯t eaten. You must be starving." "Ichiraku Ramen¡ªdo you like it?" Sasuke¡¯s warmth was undeniable. Not only did he personally escort Sakura home and offer to treat her to dinner, but he also genuinely cared about her preferences. For most couples, this might seem normal, but for Sakura, it was enough to bring her to tears. ''I¡¯m so lucky!'' In the original storyline, even though Sakura ended up with Sasuke, her life wasn¡¯t exactly happy. The Sasuke in that world was neither a caring husband nor a family-oriented man. But this Sasuke, after taking her first time and confirming their relationship, didn''t turn cold or distant. Instead, he was attentive and gentle. Even if Sasuke had a habit of being a little handsy, Sakura found herself more than willing to accept it. "Yes, I love ramen," she replied softly. And so, Sasuke took Sakura¡¯s hand and led her into Ichiraku Ramen. The shop looked exactly as it did in the anime, with its simple design and the enticing aroma of freshly prepared food filling the air. Sasuke, who had spent much of his energy with Sakura earlier, was starving. "Boss, three bowls of ramen, please." Teuchi, the owner of Ichiraku Ramen, was a serious yet kind man. In the original story, he treated Naruto exceptionally well, never ostracizing him for being the host of the Nine-Tails. Though most of the original series revolved around Naruto, Teuchi was also familiar with Sasuke. After all, Uchiha Sasuke was a renowned name in Konoha, even though Sasuke rarely visited the ramen shop. "Three bowls? Can the two of you finish all that?" Teuchi asked, concerned about food waste. Rubbing his stomach, Sasuke laughed. "I¡¯m starving; I¡¯ll easily finish two bowls. As for my girlfriend, Sakura, she hasn¡¯t eaten all day either, so she¡¯ll definitely finish one, right?" Sakura blushed and nodded, her heart racing. Sasuke had openly referred to her as his girlfriend. The gesture was so heartfelt it nearly brought Sakura to tears. Her gaze at Sasuke was now filled with affection. If she weren¡¯t worried about her parents scolding her for not returning home tonight, she would have gladly stayed at Sasuke¡¯s house. She wanted to be by his side at all times. Teuchi seemed pleasantly surprised. "So, you¡¯re a couple?" Sasuke nodded. "I like her, and she likes me." "How wonderful. You two must cherish each other." Teuchi smiled. "Wait a moment; I¡¯ll start on your three bowls of ramen right away." Ichiraku Ramen had another employee besides the boss¡ªhis daughter, Ayame. Ayame was a sweet and beautiful young woman who often helped out at the shop. That evening, she happened to be working as well. As Teuchi began preparing the ramen, Ayame came out and noticed Sasuke and Sakura sitting together. The chemistry between them was so evident that even an outsider could feel it. "Uchiha Sasuke..." Ayame said, recognizing him immediately. "You must be the owner¡¯s daughter," Sasuke remarked, recalling her appearance from the anime, though her name had slipped his mind. "I¡¯m Ayame. I never expected Uchiha Sasuke to visit our little ramen shop. And this young lady here¡ªshe¡¯s Haruno Sakura, right?" Ayame¡¯s voice was warm and friendly. "What a cute and beautiful girl." In daily life, Sakura could be loud and brash. In the original series, her temper often resembled that of a tigress, especially when she was beating up Naruto. But beside Sasuke, Sakura was the picture of demure gentleness. "Hello, Ayame-san. I¡¯m sorry to disturb you so late," Sakura said politely. Ayame waved her hand with a laugh. "Our shop is open for business no matter how late it gets. As long as there are hungry customers, we¡¯re happy to serve delicious food." Her cheerful demeanor was quintessentially anime-esque, radiating passion for her work. Suddenly, Ayame leaned in conspiratorially, her expression turning curious. "I overheard earlier... Are you two really a couple? And... how far have you gone? Holding hands? Kissing? Or..." Her curiosity was palpable. Sasuke, being one of the most handsome young men in the village, paired with Sakura, the class beauty, naturally sparked Ayame¡¯s interest. Sasuke smirked. "We¡¯ve done everything we should have." Ayame¡¯s eyes widened in shock. "That fast?!" Ayame wasn¡¯t exactly young anymore but had never experienced a romantic relationship herself. Chapter 5: Sakura Favors Sasuke Chapter 5: Sakura Favors Sasuke Ayame envied Sakura. While Sakura was indeed cute, she didn''t have Ayame''s... fullness. Even though Sasuke had already transformed Sakura from a girl into a woman, the external changes were barely noticeable. Sakura was still too young and inexperienced in love, which left her looking as innocent as ever. This purity made her very different from Tsunade in the later parts of the Naruto series. Tsunade¡¯s mature allure was something Sakura could never learn. Ayame''s envy stemmed from the fact that in the world of ''Naruto'', many girls were hopelessly infatuated. In the original story, no matter where Sasuke went, he attracted hordes of admirers, like a young celebrity idol. Ayame herself had once been young and dreamy. While she¡¯d never been in love, she¡¯d fantasized about meeting someone as handsome as Sasuke when she was Sakura''s age. Unfortunately, Ayame wasn¡¯t as lucky as Sakura. She had never encountered such a person, and working at the Ichiraku Ramen shop left her no time for romance. Her days were consumed with work. Logically and emotionally, Ayame couldn¡¯t help but envy Sakura, especially since Sasuke seemed so gentle with her. A handsome and considerate guy like Sasuke was the ideal boyfriend. ¡°Here¡¯s your ramen. Enjoy!¡± Teuchi, the ramen shop owner, served with his usual enthusiasm. For him, the joy of watching customers enjoy his food outweighed the pursuit of profit. ¡°This smells amazing. I¡¯m digging in,¡± Sasuke said as he picked up his chopsticks and began eating. ¡°Delicious, absolutely delicious.¡± After all, food was a basic necessity, and with it came a surge of energy. ¡°Sakura, stop staring at me and eat too,¡± Sasuke said, noticing her gazing dreamily at him. ¡°It won¡¯t taste as good if it gets cold.¡± Ichiraku¡¯s ramen turned out to be more filling than Sasuke had anticipated. In the anime, Naruto could devour several bowls in one go, but Sasuke doubted he could manage more than two. As fate would have it, a familiar lazy voice interrupted the peaceful scene.The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. ¡°Uncle Ichiraku, I¡¯m starving! Get me some ramen!¡± Naruto Uzumaki shuffled in, his voice tired and listless. Apparently, he¡¯d spent the day napping and had only woken up because the cold night had driven him out of his makeshift bed. In the original story, Naruto often skipped class and wasn¡¯t as hardworking as Rock Lee. Instead, he usually found a quiet spot to nap. Today was no different. What Naruto didn¡¯t expect was that Sasuke had changed completely¡ªand that his long-time crush, Sakura Haruno, was no longer the girl he once knew. Naruto raised his hand, holding up a discount coupon. He was too poor to afford ramen without it. There was even a scene in the original series where he invited Sakura out for a meal but, unable to afford anything else, treated her to ramen and asked her to split the bill. In the ''Naruto'' world, going Dutch was normal. But given how broke Naruto was, his pursuit of Sakura seemed laughable. No wonder she never gave him the time of day when he was weak. ¡°Sasuke! Sakura!¡± Naruto exclaimed, shocked to see Sasuke eating ramen at Ichiraku, and even more so to see Sakura sitting beside him. Tonight, Sakura looked different, though Naruto couldn¡¯t quite put his finger on it. Her pale, delicate face was flushed, and her gaze was soft and dreamy. ¡®What¡¯s with that look?¡¯ Naruto wondered, confused. ¡°What are you two doing here?¡± he asked. ¡°Sakura, I¡¯m so happy to see you!¡± Naruto moved closer to Sakura, eager just to speak to her or see her smile. For him, even such small interactions were deeply satisfying. But Sakura, colder than usual, cut him off. ¡°Naruto, I¡¯m Sasuke¡¯s girlfriend now. Don¡¯t get too close to me.¡± Her tone was full of disdain. Naruto, oblivious, still had grass stuck in his messy hair from wherever he¡¯d been sleeping. Compared to the clean and charming Sasuke, Naruto looked like a mess. ¡°This... this can¡¯t be!¡± Naruto¡¯s world shattered. He stared wide-eyed at Sakura and Sasuke, unable to believe what he was hearing. Sasuke, ever possessive, didn¡¯t tolerate such behavior¡ªeven from Naruto. He reached out, pulled Sakura into his arms, and, right in front of Teuchi, Ayame, and Naruto, leaned down to kiss her deeply. ¡°Ah¡ª¡± Naruto froze in shock. He clutched his hair, wanting to intervene but unable to move as he watched Sakura willingly melt into Sasuke¡¯s embrace. ¡°Naruto, don¡¯t be rude,¡± Sasuke said, raising his hand. With a surge of powerful chakra, he sent Naruto flying back. ¡°...¡± Naruto was stunned. Even Teuchi was impressed. ¡°Such strong chakra¡ªeasily jonin-level!¡± Ayame, on the other hand, was red-faced, caught up in the drama. ¡°This is so juicy¡ªa love triangle! And Sasuke-kun is so handsome.¡± Though young, Sasuke¡¯s protective display left everyone in awe. However, no one was more shocked than Sasuke himself. As he pushed Naruto away, a notification echoed in his mind: [Invincible Sign-In System] [Congratulations! Sign-in successful. You have sealed the Nine-Tails and gained access to its chakra.] Holy crap. Sasuke stared at his hand in disbelief, then at Naruto, who sat heartbroken on the ground. ¡®This system is insane!¡¯ Sasuke thought, touching his eyes. His Sharingan had evolved into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. He checked his chakra reserves and found they had reached jonin-level strength. And now, just by pushing Naruto, he had unlocked the Nine-Tails¡¯ chakra. Sasuke wasn¡¯t yet sure how powerful this chakra was, but he knew he had to keep it a secret. At his age, possessing jonin-level chakra and the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan was already frightening enough. Adding the Nine-Tails¡¯ chakra would make him a prime target. Hiding his abilities was crucial. Playing weak was a survival skill every transmigrator needed. Sasuke suppressed his excitement. ¡®This system is too powerful!¡¯ Ironically, despite spending the day intimately exploring Sakura, it had been Naruto¡¯s interference that led to the system¡¯s activation. ¡°Sasuke, are you okay?¡± Sakura¡¯s bias showed again. Even though Naruto had been the one pushed to the ground, she was concerned about Sasuke. ¡°Naruto, what were you thinking? Why did you attack my boyfriend?¡± Sakura scolded, glaring at Naruto. Chapter 6: Sakura Chapter 6: Sakura Watching Sakura Haruno, his goddess, stand before him with an angry expression, Uzumaki Naruto felt like dying on the spot. Suddenly, Naruto seemed to think of something. He scrambled to his feet and pointed a trembling finger at Uchiha Sasuke. ¡°No, no!¡± ¡°Sakura, this isn¡¯t right.¡± ¡°Sakura, wake up! Sasuke was never into women before¡ªhe didn¡¯t even like you!¡± Yes, Naruto might be clueless at times, but he wasn¡¯t stupid. He liked Sakura. Sakura didn¡¯t like him. Sakura liked Sasuke, but Sasuke didn¡¯t like anyone! Now, this Sasuke... something was clearly wrong. '' Sasuke wasn¡¯t interested in exploring the Nine-Tails chakra or obsessing over invincibility from his initial power-up. Strength was no longer something he found intriguing. Right now, teasing Naruto and winning the love of this beautiful girl, Sakura, seemed like the far more entertaining story. Without hesitation, Sasuke pulled the soft-bodied Sakura Haruno into his arms. He leaned close, his nose brushing against her smooth, delicate cheek in a way that could only be described as inappropriate. ¡°...¡± Naruto¡¯s blood boiled at the sight. His anger flared, his eyes practically turning red as if blood would burst from them. Yet he was overwhelmed with jealousy and powerless to do anything about it. ¡°Naruto, you¡¯re wrong.¡± Sasuke smirked, his tone carrying an unusual calmness. ¡°Now that I¡¯ve awakened, I¡¯ve realized something. Life is too short to spend every day brooding. Truly enjoying and savoring life is the way forward.¡± With that, Sasuke once again leaned in close to Sakura, doing... indescribable things.This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. Indeed! The original Sasuke was a brooding character, living for revenge. But this Sasuke wasn¡¯t truly the original Sasuke. Revenge wasn¡¯t that important to him! It didn¡¯t even compare to the satisfaction of enjoying a delicious bowl of Ichiraku Ramen. '' Naruto stood there heartbroken, watching the scene before him. ¡°Sasuke...¡± At first, Sakura was shy and embarrassed. After all, this was her first time experiencing romance, and she was inexperienced. But with such a bold and commanding Sasuke beside her, she quickly adapted. ¡°Sakura!¡± ¡°Sasuke!¡± ¡°You two... you¡¯ve gone too far!¡± Naruto was so furious that he nearly coughed up blood. He had never imagined that one day he¡¯d feel so utterly humiliated. He couldn¡¯t bear to stay there any longer. Naruto knew he couldn¡¯t beat Sasuke! Moreover, no matter how much Sasuke touched Sakura¡¯s beautiful legs or kissed her flawless cheeks, it was clear Sakura was willing. Naruto was just an outsider. What right did he have to stop them? His earlier outburst had only earned him Sakura¡¯s scolding! '' Naruto turned to leave, unable to stand it any longer. But Sasuke called out to him. ¡°Wait.¡± Sakura was puzzled. ¡°Naruto was being so rude, Sasuke. Why stop him?¡± ¡°But Naruto looks so pitiful,¡± Sasuke replied. ¡°I can forgive his earlier impulsiveness. Here, let him have this bowl of ramen.¡± Earlier, Sasuke had been starving and bought three bowls of ramen, but after one bowl, he was already full. Rather than wasting it, he figured it would be better to give it to Naruto. After all, no matter how annoying Naruto could be, he was still the protagonist of this anime. His tragic backstory was pitiable enough. Sasuke didn¡¯t see the need to bully him excessively. If Naruto could accept the fact that Sakura was now his girlfriend and let go of his feelings for her, Sasuke was still willing to consider him a friend. Naruto wasn¡¯t inherently a bad person, and Sasuke had no intention of pushing him into darkness. ¡°Sasuke, you¡¯re so kind,¡± Sakura said, moved by Sasuke¡¯s generosity. Naruto, on the other hand, was devastated. There sat Sakura, dressed in a sexy red qipao, her snow-white, smooth legs exposed. Sasuke¡¯s hand was caressing those legs, moving up and down shamelessly. Naruto¡¯s heart was bleeding! Deep down, Naruto had always known that Sakura liked Sasuke. He had even viewed Sasuke as his rival because of this. In the original story, when Naruto grew stronger, the first person he wanted to defeat was Sasuke. This had been his obsession since childhood! He never gave up on pursuing Sakura, even when it was Sakura who begged him to bring the rogue Sasuke back to Konoha... Naruto had promised her. But now! It felt like a dream. The usually cold-hearted Sasuke had suddenly changed. Not only did he accept Sakura, but he was also openly taking advantage of her in public... ¡°Is this really Sasuke?¡± For a moment, Naruto, like Sakura earlier, doubted whether this Sasuke was real. But upon closer observation, Sasuke¡¯s haughty demeanor and superior attitude left no doubt. ¡°I don¡¯t want it!¡± Naruto yelled. ¡°You two can eat it yourselves¡ª¡± Even though Naruto¡¯s stomach growled in hunger, he still had his pride. ¡°I bought too much, and it would be a waste to throw it away,¡± Sasuke said casually. ¡°But let me be clear: Sakura and I are serious. I¡¯ll protect her and make her happy.¡± ¡°Sakura has never liked you, Naruto. You should know that by now. You might never win her over in this lifetime, but your love shouldn¡¯t just be about possession.¡± Sasuke began lecturing Naruto on higher principles. In the original story, Naruto often lectured his enemies about ideals. Sasuke wasn¡¯t trying to imitate that, but in this situation, he had to say something. Otherwise, Naruto¡¯s misery would be too much. Sasuke was genuinely worried that Naruto might turn to darkness! If his presence caused Naruto to defect from Konoha, that would ruin the fun. '' Naruto was stunned. He looked at Sasuke in disbelief. In all these years, this was the most Sasuke had ever said to him. ¡°Sometimes, silently blessing someone is also a way of showing love.¡± ¡°Naruto, you can wish us happiness. That would show your strength of character.¡± Sasuke¡¯s words finally reached Naruto¡¯s heart. Naruto felt a bit touched. After all, he wasn¡¯t a bad person at his core; he just craved acknowledgment. Sakura, seeing Naruto on the verge of tears, added gently, ¡°Hurry and eat. It won¡¯t taste good if it gets cold.¡± Naruto finally accepted. He sat next to Sasuke, picking up the bowl of ramen and eating it with gusto. It was hard to tell whether it was the spiciness, the heat, or his emotions, but tears streamed down his face, falling into the bowl. His pride as a man made him wipe them away quickly, ensuring Sasuke and Sakura didn¡¯t notice. Chapter 7: Bonds, Love, and Friendship Chapter 7: Bonds, Love, and Friendship Back when Sasuke was just an ordinary shut-in, he could only fantasize about moments like this before falling asleep at night. ¡°Sakura, are you full?¡± Sasuke asked with genuine care, his voice filled with affection. His feelings for Sakura were real and not feigned. Whether it was Sakura Haruno or Hinata Hyuga, Sasuke had been infatuated with both of them before his reincarnation. Sakura¡¯s cheeks flushed bright red. Despite Sasuke¡¯s clear obsession with her body, Sakura didn¡¯t feel repulsed. On the contrary, she was overjoyed. After all, Sakura had always been deeply in love with Sasuke. If it were Hinata in her place right now, she definitely wouldn¡¯t accept it! Hinata was in love with Naruto, so if Sasuke wanted to win Hinata over in the future, it wouldn¡¯t be easy. Unless Sasuke abandoned all morals and used his Mangeky¨­ Sharingan to manipulate her through genjutsu, forcing her to submit. But Sasuke had no intention of doing that! Back in his shut-in days, he had fantasized about forcefully claiming the affection of anime heroines. But now! Having truly crossed over into this world, experiencing the passage of time firsthand, everything felt real¡ªthe air, the wind, the water, the flow of time, the night sky... And when he was with Sakura during the day, seeing her tear up with happiness and nervousness as they became closer, it made his heart flutter. Because this wasn¡¯t just an anime world. Sakura was a living, breathing person. She had feelings, joys, sorrows, and pain. How could Sasuke bear to harm her? Thus! As someone who had reincarnated here, Sasuke was determined to win over Hinata Hyuga as well. But he wouldn¡¯t resort to despicable means. Instead, he planned to make her fall for him wholeheartedly, just like Sakura. He wanted Hinata to willingly offer her innocent, pure self to him, and he would protect both of them with all his might.If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. Sasuke wasn¡¯t heartless. When it came to the women he liked, he would do as he pleased, but he would also care for and cherish them. Similarly! Seeing how pitiful Naruto had looked earlier, Sasuke couldn¡¯t help but feel some sympathy. He had consoled Naruto, encouraging him to accept the reality of his relationship with Sakura and to transform his envy and resentment into sincere blessings. After all, even in the original story, Naruto had never truly won Sakura¡¯s love. It was something he was destined to never achieve. Rather than force things, it was better for him to sincerely offer his blessings and become a good friend to Sasuke and Sakura, just as he had in the original story. After all, ''Naruto'' was ultimately a world of passionate bonds. Sometimes, brotherly love was far more precious and exhilarating than romantic love! ¡°I¡¯m done eating. You guys take your time,¡± Naruto said. True to his reputation as a ramen enthusiast, he finished his bowl in record time. While Naruto had reluctantly accepted Sasuke¡¯s relationship with Sakura, he still couldn¡¯t bear to stay there any longer. But Sasuke had other plans. He wasn¡¯t intentionally trying to humiliate Naruto. After all, there was no deep hatred or grudge between them. In fact, their brief contact earlier had even triggered Sasuke¡¯s unexpected acquisition of the [Nine-Tails Chakra]. Logically speaking, Sasuke had no reason to dislike Naruto. ¡°You¡¯re still hungry, aren¡¯t you? I know you usually eat at least two bowls,¡± Sasuke said. He stood up, pulling Sakura along with him. ¡°Sakura and I are done as well. It¡¯s getting late¡ªI need to walk her home.¡± He then turned to Teuchi, the ramen shop owner. ¡°One more thing. Make two more bowls of Naruto¡¯s favorite ramen. I¡¯ve already left the money here.¡± With that, Sasuke left the payment on the counter and walked off with Sakura in tow, his movements suave and composed. Teuchi admired him deeply. ¡®This Sasuke kid is impressive!¡¯ Even Ayame, Teuchi¡¯s daughter, was smitten. She found herself captivated by Sasuke¡¯s charm and considerate actions. ¡®Such a handsome, thoughtful boy! Not only did he resolve things with his rival peacefully, but he even understood Naruto¡¯s preferences.¡¯ Initially, Naruto had planned to leave in a hurry, like someone fleeing the scene. But Sasuke¡¯s tactfulness had left him dumbfounded. Not only had Sasuke managed to convince him earlier with talk of ¡°blessings,¡± but now he was even treating him to two more bowls of ramen. ¡®This... is this really Sasuke?¡¯ In the original story, Naruto had always valued his bond with Sasuke far more than any romantic feelings he harbored for Sakura. Even when Sasuke shielded Naruto from an enemy¡¯s attack or fought alongside him as a comrade, it was enough for Naruto to treasure their connection for years. Now, while two bowls of ramen weren¡¯t enough to match the depth of their bond in the original story, they had undoubtedly eased Naruto¡¯s heart. Maybe! In the face of brotherhood, romantic love truly paled in comparison. Naruto was just that kind of person. Though he seemed infatuated with Sakura, in reality, he didn¡¯t care as much as he appeared to. ¡°So, Naruto, Sasuke already paid for the ramen. Are you going to eat it?¡± Teuchi asked kindly after Sasuke and Sakura had left. ¡°Yes!¡± Naruto exclaimed with his signature goofy grin. Seeing this, Teuchi chuckled. ¡°That¡¯s the spirit, Naruto!¡± ¡°I can tell¡ªSakura really does love Sasuke. They¡¯ll be happy together.¡± ¡°And you, Naruto, will find your own happiness someday.¡± Naruto nodded seriously. ¡°Yeah!¡± Sasuke and Sakura walked hand in hand down the road to her house. For the first time, Sakura wished time could slow down, so she could spend more moments like this with Sasuke. Blushing shyly, she couldn¡¯t bring herself to refuse Sasuke¡¯s advances. Her adorable demeanor only made Sasuke want to hold her again. Unfortunately! Even honeymooning couples had to respect their partner¡¯s family. Since Sakura wasn¡¯t married to Sasuke yet, living together wasn¡¯t an option. But they had plenty of time ahead. Sasuke wasn¡¯t in a hurry. ¡°We¡¯re here.¡± ¡°Thank you, Sasuke,¡± Sakura said reluctantly. Sasuke smiled. ¡°It¡¯s only natural to walk my girlfriend home. There¡¯s no need to thank me.¡± Sakura¡¯s voice was filled with happiness. ¡°Thank you for accepting me, for loving me...¡± ¡°And for being so kind to Naruto earlier.¡± Sakura had grown alongside Sasuke. While she used to lack sympathy and even berated Naruto as an orphan in the original story, her time with Sasuke had matured her both physically and emotionally. She had learned from Sasuke¡¯s empathy toward Naruto and now shared those feelings as well. ¡°Thank you, Sasuke,¡± she said again, her gratitude sincere. ¡°Sakura!¡± Feeling Sakura¡¯s growth, Sasuke moved closer, ready to share an intimate moment with her. However, just as they were about to kiss, they were interrupted by Sakura¡¯s parents, Kizashi and Mebuki Haruno, who happened to witness the scene. Seeing their daughter with Sasuke in such an affectionate... indescribable moment, they were left utterly speechless. Chapter 8: The Story Chapter 8: The Story Sakura Haruno was completely stunned! Her very first romantic moment was caught red-handed by her parents. To make matters worse, Sasuke was being utterly inappropriate at this very moment... something indescribable. "Sasuke! Sasuke!" Sakura was panicking. Being intimate with her boyfriend was already embarrassing enough, but to be caught in the act by her parents? Sakura wanted to run away desperately, but Sasuke held her tightly, showing no intention of letting her go. Having traveled to the Naruto anime world, Sasuke was determined to do whatever he wanted. How could he back down just because Sakura''s parents caught them? As the saying goes, in the real world, I might hold back. But in the anime world, I strike with full force! "Uchiha Sasuke?" Under the moonlight, Mebuki Haruno and Kizashi Haruno recognized the young man. He was the sole surviving heir of the Uchiha clan in today''s Konoha Village. "Sakura, have you no shame? Come here right now!" Mebuki, seeing her daughter¡¯s flushed face and disheveled clothes, knew immediately what had happened. Sasuke had been all over her daughter in ways that couldn¡¯t be described. "Mom¡­" Sakura was at a loss. If it weren''t for Sasuke, she would have already run away. "Uchiha Sasuke, release my daughter at once!" Kizashi, despite being a ninja of Konoha, was nearly invisible in terms of presence. If it weren¡¯t for having Sakura as a daughter, no one would even remember he existed. But now, seeing Sasuke acting so blatantly with his daughter in front of him, Kizashi couldn''t tolerate it. Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. Sasuke remained calm and composed. With his current strength, even if Mebuki and Kizashi teamed up, they were no match for him. What was there to fear? Moreover, as a transmigrator, Sasuke inherently saw himself as superior. "Please, no need to be angry," Sasuke said, holding Sakura closer. "From today onward, Sakura is my girlfriend." "Allow me to formally introduce myself. I am Uchiha Sasuke." As he spoke, Sasuke unintentionally released the Nine-Tails chakra he had recently obtained from signing in with Naruto Uzumaki. A powerful aura and overwhelming pressure swept over Mebuki and Kizashi, leaving them utterly shocked. ''What kind of power is this?'' ''How terrifying!'' "It feels like Nine-Tails chakra..." ''Impossible! The Nine-Tails is sealed within Naruto Uzumaki. How could Uchiha Sasuke have Nine-Tails chakra?!'' Seeing their drastic change in expression, Sasuke immediately withdrew his power, returning to his usual cold and indifferent demeanor. "I understand Sakura is still young, and you might be worried about her dating someone." "But I can assure you with utmost sincerity that my feelings for Sakura are genuine. Moreover, I, Uchiha Sasuke, have the strength to protect her." Sasuke continued, "So, as her boyfriend, I ask you not to make things difficult for her." "Otherwise, I won¡¯t hesitate to take her away from you." He was so assertive and domineering. In theory, Mebuki and Kizashi were Sakura''s parents and elders, deserving of respect. But Sasuke showed none. He acted entirely according to his will, completely disregarding their feelings! If Sasuke hadn''t unintentionally released the Nine-Tails chakra earlier, Mebuki and Kizashi might not have backed down so easily. He was just too strong! The young Sasuke standing before them was no ordinary ninja. "We understand¡­" "You may leave now. Our daughter doesn¡¯t need your protection." Mebuki and Kizashi''s tone was noticeably less confident. Right in front of them, Sasuke boldly kissed Sakura''s soft, blushing lips before saying, "Don¡¯t worry. Whatever you want to say, just tell your parents." "I¡¯ve got your back. No one can bully you. Not even your parents!" What a tyrannical young man! How could someone be so domineering? "Mm!" Sakura''s heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest. How could she have ever imagined Sasuke being so assertive? Earlier, she was scared and worried. Now, with Sasuke¡¯s support, she felt courage welling up inside her. She nodded firmly. Only then did Sasuke let her go. Sakura¡¯s body felt incredibly soft to the touch. Honestly, even as he released her, Sasuke felt a twinge of reluctance. But Sasuke understood. In the Naruto anime world, there were plenty of beautiful women. Aside from Sakura, there were many others he could enjoy. As Sasuke walked past Mebuki and Kizashi, he ensured they wouldn¡¯t dare to scold Sakura in his absence. When he approached them, his originally black eyes suddenly transformed into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. "You understand, don¡¯t you? Don¡¯t take out your frustrations on my girlfriend, Sakura." "..." Mebuki and Kizashi were left speechless and stunned once again. The Mangekyo Sharingan? How was this possible?! Sasuke raised a finger to his lips in a "shh" gesture. "Keep this a secret for me. I don¡¯t want to reveal my power too soon." "As long as you know I can protect Sakura, that¡¯s enough!" After showing off, Sasuke left without looking back. "..." "..." Mebuki and Kizashi stood frozen for a long time. It wasn¡¯t until their daughter, Sakura, walked over, her face beet red, that they snapped out of their daze. "Mom, Dad, I¡¯m sorry." "But I really like Sasuke¡­ I¡¯m so happy he accepted me today." "Please, don¡¯t blame me!" Despite Sasuke''s support, Sakura still felt the need to gain her parents¡¯ approval. After all, they were her biological parents, and relationships were important. But Sasuke¡¯s earlier display of strength and his warnings left Mebuki and Kizashi unable to say a word against him. "Daughter!" Mebuki finally spoke, her heart still racing from earlier. The Nine-Tails chakra she sensed from Sasuke had initially felt like an illusion. But seeing the Mangekyo Sharingan confirmed it wasn¡¯t. Sasuke, at such a young age, already possessed terrifying power and talent. "Sakura, tell me¡­ Sasuke didn¡¯t bully you, did he?" "Mom, don¡¯t worry. Sasuke is very kind to me." Kizashi, however, was furious. "You fool! You¡¯ve been completely tricked by that brat Sasuke!" "It¡¯s infuriating! Did you see how arrogant that Uchiha Sasuke was just now?" Mebuki tried to calm him down. "Let it go. Just endure it for now." "That boy¡¯s strength is far beyond what we imagined." "And besides, you don¡¯t want to lose your daughter, do you?" Kizashi immediately fell silent. Indeed, if they scolded Sakura now and drove her away, she might just move in with Sasuke tonight. The thought of his daughter living with Sasuke was unbearable for Kizashi. "Sakura, no matter how much you like that boy, you¡¯re too young right now. I¡¯m worried he¡¯ll take advantage of you!" Kizashi, the worried father, spoke earnestly. Chapter 9: The Beautiful Girl Falls for Sasuke Chapter 9: The Beautiful Girl Falls for Sasuke Sakura Haruno noticed that her parents didn¡¯t react with extreme anger. Clearly, Sasuke-kun¡¯s actions earlier had worked. Summoning her courage, she said, "Dad, Mom, please don¡¯t blame Sasuke." "Actually, I was the one who confessed to Sasuke today!" "What?" Mebuki Haruno and Kizashi Haruno were once again dumbfounded on the spot! How shameless of their daughter! ''How did I end up with a daughter like this¡­?'' ''Sigh! What a disgrace to the family!'' Their hearts were filled with a whirlwind of emotions, but they dared not act out too much. The Uchiha clan had always been special, and even though Sasuke was the last surviving member in Konoha, his status was leagues above an ordinary family like theirs. For the first time, Mebuki realized how little she truly understood her own daughter. How had her once sweet and lively girl "fallen" to such an extent? In Mebuki and Kizashi¡¯s eyes, the cheerful and innocent girl they once knew had now turned into a rebellious bad girl. "Sakura, tell Mom, are you feeling stressed or troubled about something lately?" She assumed Sakura had sought a relationship with Sasuke because she was yearning for emotional support. If Sakura wanted a boyfriend, they wouldn¡¯t have opposed it so vehemently. But Sakura shook her head. Her bright, beautiful eyes sparkled with hope for the future. "The only thing that ever troubled me before was that the Sasuke I liked never paid attention to me." "But now that I¡¯m finally with Sasuke, I feel incredibly happy. I don¡¯t have a single worry!" This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. Looking at Sakura¡¯s face, which was radiating joy, Mebuki and Kizashi could only fall silent. --- Back at home, Mebuki prepared dinner for Sakura, though she refused to eat, saying, "Sasuke is treating me to dinner tonight." "..." Once again, Kizashi could only stay silent. --- That night, neither Mebuki nor Kizashi could sleep. In just one day, their daughter had changed so much¡ªit was hard for them to accept. As Mebuki carefully observed Sakura, she said to Kizashi, "I feel that although it¡¯s too soon for Sakura to be with Sasuke¡­" "Our daughter genuinely likes him." "And since Sasuke treated her to dinner and personally brought her home so late, maybe he really does have sincere feelings for her." Kizashi thought back to Sasuke¡¯s terrifying Mangekyo Sharingan and replied uncertainly, "At this point, we can only hope that¡¯s true." "Tomorrow, let¡¯s buy some better food. For now, let¡¯s be a little more loving to Sakura." "We can¡¯t let that brat Sasuke completely steal her from us¡­" --- Sakura was relieved that her parents didn¡¯t scold her. --- She took a bath, dried her hair, and lay down, drifting off into a blissful sleep. --- Unlike Sakura, who could enjoy a peaceful night, Sasuke remained full of energy. After leaving Sakura¡¯s house, he felt the surging power of the Nine-Tails chakra within him. In the original storyline, Naruto relied on not only his Uzumaki clan bloodline but also the Nine-Tails chakra to recover quickly from injuries. Now that Sasuke had this chakra as well, no matter how "intense" things had gotten with Sakura during the day, he still felt refreshed and energized by night. However! To Sasuke¡¯s surprise, as he passed by the Ichiraku Ramen stand, he saw it had just closed for the night. Ayame, the owner¡¯s daughter, had changed into casual clothes. Tall, mature, and exuding a graceful charm, she was captivating. Even though Ayame didn¡¯t have much screen time in the original anime, her beauty and figure were undeniable. "Sasuke!" Ayame seemed a bit surprised to see him as she locked up the shop. The evening breeze carried a coolness that made her skirt flutter gently. Sasuke¡¯s gaze revealed a hint of appreciation. "Ayame, what a coincidence. I just dropped Sakura off at home, and here you are." Sasuke didn¡¯t mind striking up a conversation with a beauty. He found Ayame quite refreshing. Back when he was a shut-in, he had only fantasized about popular characters like Hinata, Sakura, and Tsunade. If not for his late-night hunger leading him to Ichiraku Ramen, he might never have noticed the charm of Ayame in Konoha. As the wind tousled Ayame¡¯s hair, she tucked it behind her ear with her fingers and looked at Sasuke with a hint of emotion in her eyes. "I envy Sakura," she said softly. "To have such a handsome and considerate boyfriend like you." Sasuke chuckled. "There¡¯s nothing to envy. I¡¯m not exactly the perfect boyfriend." Deep down, Sasuke had already planned to build a harem in the Naruto world. He knew he wasn¡¯t a good person, and if he were truly devoted to Sakura, others might envy their perfect relationship. But with so many beautiful women in this anime world, how could he not aim to have them all? "Don¡¯t say that, Sasuke," Ayame replied. "You¡¯re so handsome, kind to Sakura, and even the way you handled Naruto earlier was impressive." "To have such skills and talent at such a young age is truly remarkable." Sasuke shook his head with a smile. "It¡¯s late. It¡¯s not safe for you to walk home alone. Let me walk you back." Ayame blushed slightly. "How could I trouble you like that?" Sasuke smiled. "It¡¯s no trouble. Besides, this way, you can see for yourself that I¡¯m not as perfect as you think." "I¡¯m really not the flawless person you imagine." Sasuke had no interest in maintaining some perfect image. He just wanted to live as he pleased. "Well then, I¡¯ll be in your care, Sasuke-kun!" Ayame didn¡¯t protest further. After all, Sasuke was still young, and even though she had feelings for him, she didn¡¯t think anything would come of it. --- The two walked together through the quiet streets of Konoha. Ayame lived quite far, and as they chatted, she became engrossed in the conversation and didn¡¯t notice the ground beneath her. Suddenly, she tripped and nearly fell. "Careful!" Sasuke moved swiftly and caught her in his arms. "I¡¯m so sorry¡­" Ayame blushed deeply, embarrassed by her clumsiness. Being held in Sasuke¡¯s protective embrace gave her a sense of safety and comfort. "Oh no, what am I thinking? This is so embarrassing¡­" As Ayame¡¯s heart raced, Sasuke¡¯s expression turned odd ly amused. Because just then, the system gave him a notification: [ Congratulations on successfully signing in! You have obtained the Ichiraku Ramen cooking skill. ] Chapter 10: The Beautiful Ayame Chapter 10: The Beautiful Ayame Sasuke didn''t feel much guilt. After all, his intention upon arriving in this anime world was to live freely and do as he pleased. If crossing into an anime world meant behaving as cautiously and timidly as in the real world, always hesitating and overthinking, then what was the point of the journey? As a transmigrator, he believed one should live boldly and pursue their desires without reservation. Of course, while Sasuke was daring, he wasn''t entirely without limits. At the very least, he wouldn''t go against a beautiful girl''s will. He would only proceed if she didn¡¯t resist and willingly accepted him. --- As for Ayame''s momentary feelings of a budding crush, Sasuke remained entirely oblivious. He hadn¡¯t even spent any effort trying to figure it out. While it was true that Ayame''s figure was far superior to Sakura''s, Ayame wasn''t exactly a prominent beauty in the anime world. Being the daughter of the Ichiraku Ramen shop owner, her popularity among anime fans wasn''t particularly high. Reasonably speaking, Sasuke was only willing to invest his energy in popular beauties like Sakura, Hinata, and Tsunade. For someone like Ayame, if the opportunity arose, he¡¯d take it. If not, he wouldn¡¯t force the matter. --- Unexpectedly, however, when Sasuke touched Ayame¡¯s body, he triggered a system sign-in. And what did he gain? [Ichiraku Ramen Cooking Skills]. "This is insane!" Sasuke thought. So, the system not only allowed him to upgrade his Sharingan, increase his chakra, and even gain Nine-Tails chakra, but it also granted him skills like making Ichiraku Ramen. "Seems like this Ayame has her uses after all," Sasuke mused. ¡°Sorry, I¡¯m so clumsy¡­¡± Ayame said apologetically.Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. Sasuke smiled boldly. ¡°It¡¯s fine. If Ayame-san hadn¡¯t been careless, I wouldn¡¯t have had the chance to prove escorting you home was meaningful. If you didn¡¯t need me at all, my presence wouldn¡¯t matter.¡± Under the moonlight, Ayame looked at Sasuke¡¯s handsome face. It was hard to believe that someone so young could be so considerate and thoughtful in both words and actions. ¡°Sasuke, being with you makes me feel so safe,¡± Ayame said with a hint of admiration, her heart fluttering. At the same time, she couldn¡¯t help but envy Sakura. If she had met Sasuke earlier, could things have been different...? As these thoughts crossed her mind, Ayame''s face flushed red again. She recalled Sasuke¡¯s bold actions in the ramen shop earlier that day. In front of everyone, he had been so brazen and carefree. For someone who had never been in love, witnessing this in person naturally stirred something within her. And to top it all off, Sasuke was incredibly handsome. --- As they walked, they finally arrived at Ayame¡¯s home. ¡°This is my house,¡± Ayame said. Surprisingly, Ayame felt like time had passed too quickly. She had always complained about the distance between her home and the ramen shop being too far. But now, walking home with Sasuke, she felt it was too short. She hadn¡¯t had enough time to chat with him properly or savor the feeling of being together. A sense of loss crept over her. ¡°Well, go on inside. I¡¯ll head back home too,¡± Sasuke said, stretching lazily. The night wasn¡¯t too late, and he could still enjoy a good night¡¯s sleep once he got home. ¡°Sasuke, thank you for walking me back. Would you¡­ would you like to come in for a drink of water?¡± Sasuke froze. What was this supposed to mean? His restless heart immediately began to heat up. Although he had been rather exhausted after his earlier... indescribable encounter with Sakura during the day, his body had fully recovered thanks to signing in and obtaining Nine-Tails chakra that evening. ¡°Are you sure, Ayame-san?¡± Sasuke asked calmly. ¡°It¡¯s late. Wouldn¡¯t I be bothering your father?¡± ¡°My father is staying at the ramen shop tonight; he won¡¯t be coming home...¡± Ayame blurted out. As soon as she said it, her face turned beet red. She was mortified. ¡®Why did I phrase it like that? What if Sasuke misunderstands? So embarrassing¡­¡¯ Wow, Sasuke thought. This was a golden opportunity. ¡°Ayame, I¡¯ll give you one more chance to reconsider.¡± ¡°I, Sasuke, am not exactly a good person,¡± he warned her. ¡°Getting too close to me will only lead to trouble.¡± His eyes gleamed mischievously. He hadn¡¯t originally planned to include Ayame in his harem. His targets were beauties like Hinata, Sakura, Tsunade, and Anko. But this kind of opportunity was too good to pass up. --- Ayame hesitated for a moment, still oblivious to the gravity of the situation. From her perspective, as someone who had never been in love, she just thought Sasuke was nice and wanted to invite him in for a drink of water. Much like Sakura¡¯s confession to Sasuke earlier in the day, Ayame¡¯s actions stemmed from the pure admiration of a young girl for a boy she liked. She didn¡¯t realize that once Sasuke accepted her invitation, he would immediately take things to a whole new level¡­ At the moment, Ayame was no different. Still unaware of the implications, her face flushed as she said, ¡°It¡¯s just a cup of water, Sasuke-kun. What¡¯s the problem?¡± ¡°Alright then,¡± Sasuke agreed. Since he¡¯d given her a fair warning and she didn¡¯t take it, there would be no regrets when she transitioned from a girl to a woman later. Sasuke¡¯s bold gaze made Ayame feel a bit flustered. Yet, her budding feelings for him kept her from resisting. --- Sasuke entered Ayame¡¯s house, which was a modest home¡ªnot overly luxurious, but not too shabby either. It was Ayame¡¯s first time inviting a boy into her home, even though Sasuke was quite a bit younger than her. ¡°Feel free to sit down, Sasuke. I¡¯ll get you some tea,¡± Ayame said, heading to the kitchen. She carefully chose her best tea leaves, wanting Sasuke to feel her sincerity. Meanwhile, Sasuke observed Ayame¡¯s house. The plain furnishings reflected a simple lifestyle. ¡°Ayame, could you show me your bedroom?¡± Sasuke asked after taking a sip of tea. Ayame blushed deeply, her heart racing. ¡°O-of course,¡± she stammered nervously, wondering why Sasuke¡¯s conversation had shifted so dramatically since entering her home. She opened the door to her bedroom, and a sweet, girlish fragrance immediately greeted Sasuke. Standing beside Ayame, a beautiful woman in her own right, he quickly shut the door behind them. Ayame jumped, startled by his actions. Sasuke stepped closer, cornering her against the wall. ¡°Ayame, do you like me?¡± he asked directly. ¡°I-I¡­¡± Ayame¡¯s heart was pounding out of her chest. What was happening? This wasn¡¯t what she expected at all! ¡°Ayame, do you have a boyfriend?¡± Sasuke pressed further. Chapter 11: Blossoming Riches Chapter 11: Blossoming Riches Ayame had never encountered anything like this before in her life. For someone who wasn¡¯t very quick-witted to begin with, her mind was now almost completely blank. "I... I don¡¯t have a boyfriend." Despite herself, Ayame found the words tumbling out in response to Sasuke¡¯s question. So embarrassing! Never in her life had Ayame felt this shy before. It was as if she could even smell Sasuke¡¯s breath, their proximity making her heart race uncontrollably. "Sasuke, you... you''re too close." Yet, Sasuke didn¡¯t pull away. This was the anime world¡ªbacking off would have been far too cowardly for someone like him. Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. He boldly declared, "So, you really don¡¯t have a boyfriend." "Then, answer me this. Do you like me?" Sasuke¡¯s question seemed to carry an irresistible force, compelling her to respond. ... For the first time, Ayame experienced what it truly felt like to be a girl. Being so close to a boy¡ªwhy did it make her feel so hot? "I... I... I don¡¯t know," she stammered. It was only then that Ayame began to snap out of her daze from moments before. "Sasuke, even if I have feelings for you..." "But we can¡¯t do this!" "You already have a girlfriend. I can¡¯t betray Sakura like that!" Sasuke leaned closer, whispering into Ayame¡¯s blushing ear, "Ayame, I¡¯ve told you before¡ªI¡¯m not a good guy." "Sakura is mine." "And so are you!" Sasuke¡¯s overbearing declaration left Ayame utterly dumbfounded. "Sasuke..." But Sasuke wasn¡¯t finished. "It¡¯s not just you two. Any beautiful woman I set my sights on¡ªI¡¯ll claim them all." "You¡¯re all part of my harem." As he spoke, Sasuke¡¯s overwhelming presence enveloped Ayame completely, making her heart and body surrender to him. Ayame finally collapsed into Sasuke¡¯s arms, unable to resist any longer. "Sasuke, you really are a bad man!" ... "Sasuke, I... I¡¯m willing to be your lover." Sasuke smiled. "I¡¯ll take care of Sakura. Don¡¯t worry about her." ... That night... was indescribable. ... Until the sun rose outside the window. ... "I¡¯ll make you breakfast." Sasuke offered to prepare a meal for her¡ªa breakfast full of love. Ayame was both shocked and touched. "Sasuke-kun, how could I let you cook for me..." Sasuke replied, "Idiot. You¡¯re my woman now. Cooking for you is the least I can do." "Sasuke¡ª" Ayame was overwhelmed, never imagining that Sasuke could be both so gentle and so considerate toward her. "Stay here and wait," Sasuke said, getting up. The previous night, Sasuke had signed in and acquired [Ichiraku Ramen Cooking Skills]. Today, he figured he¡¯d test his new skills in Ayame¡¯s kitchen. Chapter 12: Sasuke’s Genjutsu Chapter 12: Sasuke¡¯s Genjutsu After claiming Ayame, the daughter of Ichiraku Ramen¡¯s owner, Sasuke found himself in her kitchen at the break of dawn, preparing breakfast. Even in the anime world, Sasuke firmly believed that his women deserved to be cherished by him personally. ... Back at Ichiraku Ramen, Teuchi, the owner, could never have guessed that the Sasuke who had dined at his restaurant last night had taken Ayame into his embrace. Teuchi had expected Ayame to help at the shop today, but it seemed that hope was destined to be dashed. There was no way Ayame would have the energy to work; she¡¯d likely sleep the entire day. ... ¡°Breakfast is ready,¡± Sasuke called out. He hadn¡¯t anticipated how effective the [Ichiraku Ramen Cooking Skills] he signed in for last night would be after his intimate moment with Ayame. Before crossing into this world, as a shut-in, his culinary repertoire was limited to boiling water, making instant noodles, and heating up pre-packaged meals. But after arriving in this alternate world, his system was an extraordinary cheat. Unbelievably powerful! Now, Sasuke felt a deep sense of pride as he sampled the food he made himself. ¡°Did you make this?¡± Ayame asked, sitting up. She wanted to head to the living room to eat. ¡°Sasuke, aside from my dad, you¡¯re the first person who¡¯s ever been this good to me.¡± When Ayame was a child, her father had always taken care of her like this. Now that she was grown up, she never expected a younger man like Sasuke to look after her. Sasuke cradled her in his arms, grinning. ¡°Taste it.¡± ¡°This is... the flavor of Ichiraku Ramen?¡± Ayame was shocked.Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. Still holding her, Sasuke chuckled. ¡°Not bad, right? If it¡¯s good, eat more.¡± Blushing furiously, Ayame couldn¡¯t help but ask, ¡°Did our family¡¯s ramen recipe get passed on to someone else?¡± ¡°Sasuke, when did you learn to make Ichiraku Ramen?¡± Sasuke laughed. ¡°Silly girl, it¡¯s just a bowl of ramen. Why are you so surprised?¡± ¡°Your man can do much more than that.¡± Seeing Sasuke dodge the question, Ayame could only sigh in amazement. ¡°Sasuke, as expected of the genius of the Uchiha clan!¡± ¡°You¡¯re incredible!¡± Sasuke smiled. ¡°Hurry and eat. Once you¡¯re full, get some rest.¡± Although Sasuke wanted to continue last night¡¯s more intimate activities with Ayame, he had to consider her physical limits. Unlike Sakura, Ayame was more mature, but she wasn¡¯t a ninja and had no training. ... Sasuke gently helped Ayame lie back down. ¡°Be good and rest.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll stay until you fall asleep.¡± Looking at Sasuke¡¯s handsome face, Ayame couldn¡¯t help but recall last night¡¯s wildness. Her heart raced uncontrollably. How could she possibly sleep? ¡°Sasuke, I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t fall asleep.¡± Sasuke laughed. ¡°Silly girl, with me here, you¡¯ll sleep in no time.¡± As he spoke, Sasuke¡¯s Sharingan activated for the first time. Channeling his chakra, he carefully cast a genjutsu to help Ayame fall asleep without causing her any harm. Ayame was different from Sakura. Even though Sakura had been inexperienced, she¡¯d had years of feelings for Sasuke, which formed a solid emotional foundation. Accepting a physical relationship came naturally for her. But Ayame was another story. They had barely spoken a few words before last night, only recognizing each other but never truly knowing one another. Yet, she had given Sasuke her most precious gift as a girl. Without using his Sharingan¡¯s genjutsu to ease her into sleep, Ayame would likely have a restless heart. If Sasuke left, she¡¯d feel abandoned. But if he stayed, her emotions would be a complicated mess, making sleep impossible. ... Thanks to his powerful system, Sasuke always found the perfect solution for any challenge. Watching Ayame sleep peacefully, Sasuke finally had a moment to relax. He left her house. Reflecting on the past day or two since his arrival, Sasuke realized he had not only claimed Sakura Haruno but also Ayame, the daughter of Ichiraku Ramen¡¯s owner, as his own. As a former shut-in, Sasuke could hardly believe this was his reality. Back then, he wouldn¡¯t have even dared to dream of such things. Now, he truly felt like a scumbag! But as an emperor enjoying the company of beautiful anime women, the experience was indescribably delightful. ¡°System, are you there?¡± Whether with Sakura or Ayame, Sasuke had been too busy strategizing his conquests to talk with the system. The truth was, Sasuke¡¯s invincible sign-in system functioned like an advanced AI, capable of interaction. [Responding to the host, the system is here.] Sasuke asked, ¡°I already have two girlfriends, and I feel like I¡¯m running out of time.¡± The system responded: [Does the host wish to acquire the skill of a ¡®Master Time Manager¡¯?] Sasuke thought back to stories of real-world playboys, some of whom could juggle conversations with over a dozen girlfriends and even go on multiple dates in a single day. That kind of skill was indeed impressive. But Sasuke¡¯s current concern wasn¡¯t that. He was worried about being cheated on. With so many women to manage, it would be impossible to keep track of them all. What if another man took advantage of the situation? As a transcendent, invincible powerhouse, Sasuke couldn¡¯t tolerate the idea of wearing a green hat. ¡°System, what I want is a way to monitor...¡± ¡°Well, not really monitor. I¡¯m not that perverted. I don¡¯t need to keep tabs on my girlfriends every second.¡± ¡°What I want is for the system to alert me if one of them falls for someone else or if another man tries to approach them.¡± ¡°Of course, this should include their safety as well.¡± The system seemed to understand Sasuke¡¯s request. After a brief pause, the system calmly responded: [Host, your suggestion isn¡¯t the optimal solution.] ¡°Oh?¡± Surprised, Sasuke asked, ¡°System, do you have a better idea?¡± [Indeed.] [The system can provide the host with a function called ¡®Danger Warning.¡¯] The system elaborated: [What the host suggests only notifies you once danger has occurred. By then, it might already be too late.] [With a danger warning system, the host will be alerted in advance, allowing you to resolve issues before they escalate.] Holy crap! Sasuke couldn¡¯t help but give a thumbs-up. ¡°System, you¡¯re amazing!¡± ¡°I love you!¡± ¡°With a system as powerful as you, how could my harem in the Naruto world ever be anything less than strong and secure?¡± ¡°I want this ¡®Danger Warning¡¯ function immediately!¡± Chapter 13: Sakura Blushed Chapter 13: Sakura Blushed [Ding!] [Congratulations, Host! You have successfully unlocked the Danger Alert function.] [You can now designate individuals you wish to protect by adding them to your protection list.] This is amazing! Sasuke immediately added Sakura Haruno and Ayame to the protection list. With the system''s girlfriend protection list set, Sasuke finally felt at ease. "Ha~" Sasuke yawned, feeling a bit tired. Thanks to the Nine-Tails Chakra nourishing his body, even after last night''s extensive activity, he was still in peak physical condition. However, his mental energy was another story¡ªexhausted and on the verge of burnout. It was similar to pulling all-nighters gaming back in his previous life. Physically, he wasn¡¯t drained, but mentally, he felt spent. Rest isn¡¯t just for the body¡ªit¡¯s essential for the mind too. ¡®It seems I need to consider signing in to acquire some powerful **mental abilities**,¡¯ Sasuke thought. That way, he could stay energetic for days and nights without any rest. ... But for now, sleep was the best solution. The moment Sasuke allowed his mind to relax, exhaustion hit him like a wave. He had no intention of dying from overwork; he had only just begun his happy harem life in this anime world. As for his timid, dreary past life, Sasuke had no nostalgia whatsoever. This life was carefree, exhilarating, and just how he liked it. ... Returning to his room, Sasuke took a shower, changed into clean pajamas, and went to bed.If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. The world of Naruto was peculiar¡ªsimultaneously ancient and modern. It was ancient in that there were no firearms, planes, or tanks. Yet modern conveniences like televisions, washing machines, and microwaves were all present. Living alone was surprisingly easy for Sasuke. His Uchiha clan had left behind substantial assets. When Sasuke had the time, he planned to reclaim them all from the Third Hokage. Everything that belonged to the Uchiha clan rightfully belonged to him. ... By midday, the sun was shining brightly. Naruto Uzumaki, still reeling from the events of last night, was sound asleep. Even in his dreams, he muttered, "Sakura, don''t leave me..." "Sasuke, you''re so damn annoying!" ... Meanwhile, Sakura Haruno, who had gone to bed early the previous night after being utterly exhausted by Sasuke during the day, woke up in the morning. Her parents had already left for work. The Haruno household was fairly ordinary. Both Kizashi Haruno and Mebuki Haruno had jobs, which allowed them to support Sakura comfortably. Still, they had to work to sustain their lifestyle. Ordinary people had no choice¡ªno work meant no food. On the dining table was a note. "Sakura, we won''t interfere or ask about your relationship with Sasuke anymore." "As your parents, our only concern is whether you''re happy and well-fed." It was a rare moment of heartfelt expression from Kizashi and Mebuki Haruno. Perhaps they had been deeply affected by Sasuke''s presence last night. "Breakfast is in the pot. Remember to eat." Warmth flooded Sakura''s heart as she read the note. Despite often resenting her parents for being so ordinary¡ªbecause in the ninja world, bloodline limits were incredibly important¡ªshe felt a deep sense of love. Whether it was the Byakugan, Sharingan, or the secret techniques of clans like the Nara, Akimichi, and Aburame, even her childhood friend Ino Yamanaka had family techniques. Yet, Sakura''s family, though both her parents were ninjas, had nothing extraordinary to pass down to her. ... However, falling in love with Sasuke and being with him made Sakura feel genuinely happy for the first time. Last night, she had worried that her parents might not accept her relationship with Sasuke. But now, eating the breakfast her parents had prepared, Sakura felt a warm sense of reassurance. Having a boyfriend and gaining her parents¡¯ approval was truly something to be happy about. After finishing her meal, Sakura eagerly headed to Sasuke¡¯s house. Since Sasuke hadn¡¯t come to find her, she decided she¡¯d go find him instead. After all, Sakura had always been the one chasing after Sasuke. Just because they were now officially a couple didn¡¯t mean she expected Sasuke to start pursuing her. Sakura wasn¡¯t about to think that way! ... The streets of Konoha were bustling today. Sakura, carrying a lovingly prepared breakfast for Sasuke, made her way to his house with excitement. Although she wanted to cook for him herself, Sakura was painfully aware of her culinary skills¡ªor lack thereof. Even dogs would refuse her cooking, let alone her beloved Sasuke. So she spent her allowance to buy something delicious for him instead. In the past, Sasuke would always reject such gestures. But now, as his girlfriend, Sakura was confident he¡¯d happily accept. ... To her surprise, when she arrived at Sasuke''s house, he was still asleep. Knocking on the door, she heard Sasuke groggily call out, "Oh, it''s you, Sakura. Come in." Sasuke looked utterly exhausted. And why wouldn¡¯t he be? He¡¯d barely gotten any sleep before Sakura showed up, knocking on his door. "Dear, tomorrow is the ninja academy graduation exam. You can sleep in today, but you can¡¯t slack off tomorrow," Sakura said, leaning in to plant a kiss on Sasuke. She adored him so much and was more than willing to shower him with affection. "Tomorrow¡¯s the graduation exam?" Sasuke murmured, surprised. He had nearly forgotten. He realized that he and Sakura hadn¡¯t even graduated yet. Tomorrow would undoubtedly bring some interesting events. The familiar faces of Konoha¡¯s Twelve Shinobi would finally come together. And, of course, Sasuke was especially looking forward to seeing Hinata and Ino. ... Half an hour later, Sakura, who had intended to keep Sasuke company, fell asleep herself. She stayed by his side until the afternoon. That was until Sasuke''s playful hands stirred her awake during an inappropriate moment. Blushing furiously, Sakura glanced at Sasuke, only to be met with his sweet-talking and affectionate gaze. As things heated up between them, Sakura found herself willingly and happily following Sasuke¡¯s lead. They didn¡¯t stop until late at night. Afterward, Sasuke personally went to the kitchen to prepare some Ichiraku ramen for Sakura. Sakura was stunned. "Dear, you can cook ramen? This is amazing!" "Sasuke, you¡¯re incredible!" Chapter 14: Sakuras Happiness, Ayame Chapter 14: Sakura''s Happiness, Ayame Sasuke always knew how to surprise Sakura! Her eyes shone with affection. "Sasuke, your cooking is even better than the Ichiraku Ramen shop owner''s." "If you opened a ramen shop on Konoha Street, business would be booming!" "The food I make with my own hands is only for the ones I love. Outsiders wouldn''t get a taste even if they offered money," Sasuke replied confidently. Sakura blushed, feeling a warm sense of happiness. "Dear, I want to do something for you too." In the Naruto world, it was common for wives to cook for their husbands, but Sakura¡¯s cooking skills were... well, best left unmentioned. Sasuke chuckled. "You already make me happy. That¡¯s enough, my dear wife." He had no intention of forcing Sakura to learn how to cook. Everyone had their strengths and weaknesses, and there was no need to push her into something she wasn¡¯t good at. Thanks to the ''Invincible Sign-In System'', Sasuke could acquire professional skills just by signing in. For Sakura to start from scratch would be too difficult. ¡­ While eating Sasuke''s delicious ramen, Sakura shyly said, "No matter what you ask of me, dear, I¡¯ll do it." Even if it was something incredibly embarrassing, Sakura would not refuse.If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. As long as Sasuke was happy, so was she. ¡­ The day passed quickly. Sasuke, full of energy and vigor, cherished every moment with Sakura after her meal. ¡­ Kizashi Haruno, Sakura''s father, had a dark expression. As her father, he couldn''t ignore the changes in Sakura''s behavior. Sakura was utterly infatuated with Sasuke and was willing to do anything for him. Mebuki Haruno also wore a grim look. This Sasuke was going too far. The way he acted so brazenly, she wanted nothing more than to give the brat a harsh lesson. But Sasuke¡¯s warning from the previous night lingered in their minds. If they pushed Sakura too hard, she might actually move in with Sasuke. That would only make things worse. Damn it! ¡­ Sasuke casually greeted Kizashi and Mebuki before bidding farewell to Sakura. "Sakura, see you tomorrow at the ninja academy." Tomorrow was the academy''s graduation exam, and Sasuke planned to shine brightly, leaving everyone in awe. He wanted Sakura to witness just how invincible and impressive her husband was. "Mm, Sasuke, see you tomorrow." Right in front of her parents, Sakura sweetly bid Sasuke goodbye, showing off their love. ¡­ What Sakura couldn¡¯t have imagined was that after she happily returned home, her dear Sasuke was already on his way to Ichiraku Ramen. After sleeping all morning, Sasuke was in excellent physical and mental shape. Since he had spent last night with Ayame, the ramen shop owner''s daughter, he felt it only right to visit her again tonight. He didn¡¯t want Ayame feeling neglected or sad. Unlike Sakura, Ayame wasn¡¯t a ninja. Sakura, even though she hadn¡¯t graduated as a genin, had been training since childhood and could withstand Sasuke¡¯s "intensity." Ayame, on the other hand, had no such training. Despite being more physically mature than Sakura, she struggled to endure Sasuke¡¯s relentless passion. Even after sleeping all day, her body hadn¡¯t fully recovered. ¡­ Ichiraku Ramen''s owner, Teuchi, had been waiting for Ayame to come help all day. When she finally arrived in the evening, her face was flushed, and she walked with a slight wobble. "Sorry, Dad, I overslept," Ayame said, avoiding her father¡¯s gaze. "Are you feeling unwell?" Teuchi asked, noticing how weak she seemed. "No, I''m fine," she replied, forcing a smile. "Are you sure? You look exhausted," he said, still worried. "I''m fine, really. Dad, you¡¯ve been busy all day. I¡¯ll handle the shop tonight, so you can go home and rest," Ayame offered. "You smell like sweat. Go take a bath." Though reluctant, Teuchi sniffed his shirt and realized she was right. "Alright then, it¡¯s getting late anyway. Make sure to close up early, and be careful." After Teuchi left, the ramen shop was quiet. Ayame sat lost in thought, her mind a mess. Her body still ached from the previous night, but when she thought about Sasuke¡ªan Uchiha, so handsome and charming¡ªshe couldn¡¯t bring herself to regret anything. Just as her face turned red with embarrassment at her wandering thoughts, Sasuke appeared. "You silly girl, what are you thinking about?" Sasuke teased, stepping into the shop. Chapter 15: Sakura and Sasuke Chapter 15: Sakura and Sasuke At Sakura¡¯s house, Kizashi Haruno and Mebuki Haruno had plenty they wanted to say. They had seen enough to know what was happening, and the mere thought of what they hadn¡¯t witnessed made them uneasy. As Sakura¡¯s parents, it was difficult for them to accept everything. But Sakura, clearly exhausted after being thoroughly "handled" by Sasuke throughout the day, interrupted their thoughts. ¡°Dad, Mom, I¡¯m going to sleep. If there¡¯s anything, let¡¯s talk tomorrow,¡± she said, not wanting to stick around for any lectures. With a sigh, she retreated to her room before her parents could start. ¡°Ah¡­¡± Kizashi and Mebuki could only sigh in resignation. Their daughter was beyond their control now. All they could hope was that Sasuke would genuinely treat Sakura well. ¡­ Meanwhile, Sasuke had gone to Ichiraku Ramen, hoping for a bit of luck. To his surprise, the ramen shop was unusually quiet. ¡°Sasuke¡ª!¡± Ayame, seeing Sasuke suddenly appear, thought she was dreaming. She even rubbed her eyes exaggeratedly, a gesture far removed from her normally lively demeanor. In the past, Ayame had been cheerful and confident, but after falling for Sasuke, she unconsciously began to reveal a shy, girlish side around him. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. Sasuke chuckled. ¡°What, is it just you here tonight?¡± ¡°What do you want, Sasuke?¡± Without answering, Sasuke casually vaulted over the counter into the ramen shop. ¡°My little sweetheart, what do you think I want?¡± ¡°Hasn¡¯t it been a whole day already? Don¡¯t you miss me?¡± Ayame flushed. ¡°Sasuke¡­¡± She glanced nervously at the door, worried someone might see them. ¡°You¡¯re such a bad boy!¡± she said in a half-scolding tone, her shyness evident. Sasuke smirked, pulling her into his arms. ¡°And yet, you love this bad boy, don¡¯t you?¡± Before Ayame could respond, Sasuke moved to close the shop early. ¡°Sasuke, you¡¯re terrible!¡± ¡°Good thing my dad went home. Otherwise, if he saw this, he¡¯d probably break my legs.¡± Sasuke¡¯s eyes glinted with confidence. ¡°He wouldn¡¯t dare.¡± ¡°From last night onward, Ayame, you¡¯re my woman. Even your father has no right to question that.¡± Ayame was simultaneously touched and exasperated. ¡°Sasuke, you¡¯re so domineering!¡± ¡°And don¡¯t you forget it,¡± Sasuke replied with a grin. ¡­ In the back of Ichiraku Ramen, there was a small resting area. It quickly became a haven of happiness for Sasuke and Ayame. ¡­ Afterward, as Ayame lay exhausted, Sasuke said, ¡°Leaving you here alone doesn¡¯t sit right with me. Come sleep at my place tonight.¡± Ayame, deeply moved by his thoughtfulness, hesitated before replying, ¡°I can¡¯t.¡± ¡°I¡¯m worried Sakura might find out. I don¡¯t want her to know about us¡­¡± With maturity and understanding, Ayame added, ¡°I¡¯ve watched the shop alone plenty of times before. I¡¯ll be fine.¡± Sasuke frowned. ¡°That was before. Things are different now¡ªyou have me.¡± ¡°But if you¡¯re worried about Sakura, I¡¯ll take you home instead.¡± Without waiting for her response, Sasuke carried Ayame to her room. Only after ensuring she was comfortably settled did he finally leave. ¡°Get some rest. If your father has any concerns, I¡¯ll handle it,¡± Sasuke reassured her. Ayame, gazing at him, felt overwhelmed with happiness. ¡°No need. My dad¡¯s very understanding. Even if I neglect the shop, he won¡¯t blame me,¡± she said softly. Unlike Sakura, Ayame was already at an age where marriage was a possibility. Her father wouldn¡¯t fault her for having a boyfriend. Sasuke nodded. ¡°Fine. But if you ever feel wronged or face any difficulties, come to me. I¡¯ll take care of it.¡± ¡°You¡¯re not alone anymore, understand?¡± Tears welled up in Ayame¡¯s eyes as she nodded obediently. ¡°Goodnight,¡± Sasuke said, leaving her with a sense of fulfillment she had never felt before. For Ayame, there was no sadness in watching Sasuke leave. Her heart was completely filled by him now, and she had fully accepted their relationship. ¡­ Sasuke returned home and quickly fell asleep. The next day, Sakura hesitated, despite saying the night before that she would see Sasuke at the ninja academy. In the end, she decided to stop by his house first. On the way, just as she neared Sasuke¡¯s place, she ran into Naruto. ¡°Sakura¡­¡± Naruto looked disheveled, clearly still struggling to accept that Sakura and Sasuke were together. ¡°Naruto!¡± Sakura, initially embarrassed, quickly regained her composure. She felt she had nothing to apologize for. ¡°Is there something you need?¡± she asked calmly. ¡°No¡­ I just wanted to say I wish you and Sasuke happiness,¡± Naruto said, his tone laced with resignation. Thanks to Sasuke¡¯s comfort the other night, Naruto hadn¡¯t fallen into despair. ¡°Thank you¡­¡± Naruto¡¯s maturity left Sakura feeling slightly uneasy. ¡°I¡¯m going to check if Sasuke¡¯s up,¡± she said, continuing to Sasuke¡¯s house. Naruto, initially planning to leave, decided there was no need to avoid the situation now that he had resolved to support them. ¡­ When Sakura arrived at Sasuke¡¯s house, she found him still asleep. It didn¡¯t take long for Sasuke to get ready, though. ¡°¡­!¡± Naruto, catching a glimpse of something he shouldn¡¯t have, turned red and immediately averted his gaze. ¡°I didn¡¯t see anything¡­¡± he stammered. Chapter 16: Hinata and Ino Chapter 16: Hinata and Ino Naruto, holding back his heartbreak, said, ¡°Today¡¯s the ninja academy graduation exam. I just happened to run into Sakura...¡± ¡°I¡¯ve liked Sakura for many years. Everyone knows that.¡± ¡°But now, I¡¯ve accepted the fact that she¡¯s with you, Sasuke.¡± ¡°Liking someone doesn¡¯t always mean possessing them. Wishing them happiness is a kind of love too.¡± Sakura felt a bit awkward. ¡°Naruto, stop saying such things!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want Sasuke to misunderstand¡­¡± Sasuke, holding Sakura¡¯s hand, smiled confidently. ¡°I trust my Sakura. Her love for me is for life.¡± ¡°Naruto, I¡¯m glad you feel this way.¡± ¡°But Sakura is my woman now. It¡¯s time for you to mature and let go of any improper thoughts about her.¡± Naruto, despite his sorrow and regret, nodded. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I can do that.¡± Sasuke smirked. ¡°Good. Then let¡¯s begin today¡¯s legendary journey!¡± ¡­ This was the third day since Sasuke had entered the world of the Naruto anime. The past two days and nights had been carefree and exciting, but life couldn¡¯t just be¡­ indescribable moments. It was time for Sasuke to shine and leave everyone in awe!The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement. ¡­ At the ninja academy, the atmosphere was lively and energetic. Iruka had arrived early, feeling a mix of pride and worry. The children he had taught were about to graduate and become genin¡ªwarriors of Konoha Village. From now on, they would face life-threatening missions. How many of them would survive was uncertain. Still, in the eyes of the students: ¡°Oh my gosh, it¡¯s Sasuke Uchiha! He¡¯s so handsome!¡± ¡°Naruto Uzumaki, get out of the way! You¡¯re blocking my view of my prince!¡± The fangirls squealed with excitement as soon as Sasuke entered the academy. Naruto was long used to this scene. In the past, he envied Sasuke. And now? Nothing had changed. The sight of Sakura and Sasuke together was something Naruto would remember for years, though it was a painful memory. But he knew he could never replace Sasuke in Sakura¡¯s heart. ¡­ ¡°Naruto-kun!¡± Among the crowd, a modestly dressed, shy girl stood out¡ªHinata Hyuga. Unlike the fangirls who were fawning over Sasuke, Hinata¡¯s gaze was focused solely on Naruto. In the original series, the bond between Hinata and Naruto was one of the most touching stories. In contrast, the relationship between Sakura and Sasuke didn¡¯t have the same emotional resonance. However! The Sasuke in this world was different. Holding Sakura¡¯s hand, his sharp eyes quickly locked onto the adorable, timid Hinata Hyuga. ¡®Heh, Hinata, sooner or later, you¡¯ll be mine too!¡¯ Sasuke thought to himself, enjoying the attention of the girl by his side while setting his sights on the next. ¡­ Hinata suddenly shivered, though she didn¡¯t know why. She had no idea that Sasuke¡¯s devilish eyes had already set their sights on her. In Sasuke¡¯s ranking of beauties in the Naruto world, Hinata was at the very top, surpassing even Sakura in charm. Sakura barely held second place, as her character in the original series wasn¡¯t particularly endearing. ¡­ ¡°What the¡ª!¡± ¡°Why is Sasuke holding Sakura¡¯s hand?¡± ¡°That girl Sakura¡ªwho gave her permission to be so close to our Lord Sasuke?¡± The fangirls were consumed with jealousy, their expressions filled with envy and rage. Meanwhile, other classmates like Shikamaru, Choji, Shino, and Kiba glanced over curiously. They were all in the same graduating class, while Neji Hyuga, Rock Lee, and Tenten were from the previous year and a grade ahead of them. ¡°Sasuke Uchiha!¡± ¡°A genius!¡± ¡°He¡¯s even more famous than Neji Hyuga from the year above!¡± The girls were madly in love with Sasuke, while the boys were equally jealous. Even Shikamaru, usually so disinterested and laid-back, couldn¡¯t help but take notice. When he saw Sasuke holding Sakura¡¯s hand and noticed her flushed face, he raised an eyebrow. ¡°Sasuke and Sakura?¡± Shikamaru thought to himself, ¡°Sakura always liked Sasuke, but I never thought he¡¯d actually accept her confession¡­¡± Incredible! ¡­ One person who couldn¡¯t accept this sight was Ino Yamanaka. Ino, with her stunning figure and beautiful face, stood out with her striking blonde hair, though her hairstyle didn¡¯t do her any favors. If Ino changed her hairstyle, her beauty might even surpass Sakura¡¯s. Right now, Ino was furious. Her face was red with anger, confusion, frustration, and jealousy. She stormed over, standing between Sasuke and Sakura. ¡°Sasuke!¡± ¡°Sakura! What are you two doing?¡± ¡°Sakura, let go of my Sasuke right now!¡± In the past, Ino and Sakura had been best friends, but their shared love for Sasuke had driven a wedge between them. Now, the rivalry between the two girls was clear for everyone to see. Chapter 17: Ino Chapter 17: Ino Hinata, the adorable and gentle girl, was simply too kind. Even when Sasuke held Sakura''s small hand in the crowd, becoming the subject of countless whispers, Hinata''s delicate and pretty face, adorned with those pure, pearly eyes that evoked sympathy, remained solely focused on Uzumaki Naruto. ¡®Naruto-kun must be so heartbroken!¡¯ In their class, it was no secret that both Sakura and Ino liked Sasuke. However, Sasuke had always been distant, cold, and unapproachable. He never showed anyone a kind face. Similarly, Naruto''s crush on Sakura was also common knowledge. His relentless pursuit of Sakura often left her enraged, causing her to explode in anger time and time again. ¡­ But now, shockingly enough, the icy Sasuke was actually together with the lovestruck Sakura, and the two seemed so sweet that it almost felt like something inappropriate had happened between them. While Hinata felt sorry for Naruto, Yamanaka Ino approached Sakura and Sasuke. Deeply in love with Sasuke, Ino didn¡¯t dare to direct her frustrations toward him. Instead, she vented all her discontent on Sakura. ¡°Ino, let me tell you something. Sasuke-kun and I are together now.¡± ¡°I¡¯m his girlfriend, and he¡¯s my boyfriend.¡± Sakura¡¯s smug display in front of Ino was like a sharp knife to Ino¡¯s heart. The pain of losing someone she cherished tore at her, leaving her on the verge of tears. In the original series, when Sasuke defected from the Hidden Leaf Village, Ino had cried too. Although her love for Sasuke was more reserved compared to Sakura¡¯s fanatical obsession, it was still genuine and deep. But Sakura¡¯s love for Sasuke in the original series had been so intense, so unrelenting, that it overshadowed Ino¡¯s more restrained feelings. ¡­ ¡°This is going to be good!¡± Kiba Inuzuka was actually a bit envious of Sasuke. However, being straightforward, he wasn¡¯t jealous of Sasuke¡¯s popularity with girls but rather his incredible talent. Sasuke was a genius, excelling in ninjutsu and taijutsu, always ranking first in class.The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. And, of course, Sasuke was ridiculously handsome! ¡°Two girls fighting over one guy¡ªhow incomprehensible,¡± Shino Aburame remarked with his usual lack of emotional insight, unable to grasp the drama. Meanwhile, Choji Akimichi munched away on his chips. ¡°Ino¡­ Should we step in to stop her?¡± Ino, Choji, and Shikamaru had grown up together as part of their clans¡¯ strong bond. At the moment, the scene appeared as though Ino was causing trouble for Sakura, but in reality, with Sakura already with Sasuke, Ino¡¯s actions seemed more like self-humiliation. Shikamaru sighed. ¡°That foolish girl, Ino, has loved Sasuke for years.¡± ¡°I have no idea what kind of charm Sakura used to make the cold Sasuke agree to be her boyfriend.¡± Even with Shikamaru¡¯s sharp mind, he couldn¡¯t guess the truth behind this situation. Unbeknownst to him, Sakura had actually been the one actively pursued by Sasuke! ¡°But right now¡­¡± ¡°This might be the perfect time for Ino to feel the pain of heartbreak and let go.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve always thought Ino¡¯s feelings for Sasuke were a mistake!¡± Sasuke¡¯s cold demeanor and ever-present aura of killing intent marked him as far from an ideal romantic partner. He was a vengeful spirit, not someone who could bring happiness to anyone, even if he accepted Ino¡¯s feelings. ¡­ The current situation was painful, but short-term pain was better than prolonged agony. If Ino completely gave up on Sasuke and let go of her fantasies, she could begin anew. Honestly, in the original series, Ino¡¯s eventual relationship with Sai wasn¡¯t exactly the best outcome either. ¡®In the original series, Ino only liked Sai because he somewhat resembled Sasuke. Her feelings were more of a compromise than true love.¡¯ That sense of settling for less was pitiful! ¡­ Back to the scene, the escalating tension between Ino and Sakura caught Sasuke¡¯s attention. Sasuke began considering his options: 1. Sakura was now his woman. Even if it was Ino, he couldn¡¯t let anyone wrong her. He could defend Sakura and humiliate Ino. 2. Ino was also destined to be part of his future harem. Abandoning the forest for one tree was something only a fool would do. As a transmigrator, Sasuke had the mindset of taking it all¡ªevery beauty belonged to him. 3. ¡­He hadn¡¯t yet figured out a third option. The first option meant protecting Sakura but offending Ino. While it could solve the immediate problem, winning Ino over as part of his harem later would become challenging. The second option involved appeasing Ino, but that would undoubtedly upset Sakura. Yesterday, Sasuke had spent time doing unspeakable things with Ayame, the ramen shop owner¡¯s daughter, and Sakura had no idea. Ayame was content being Sasuke¡¯s secret lover and didn¡¯t want Sakura to know. Ino, on the other hand, had a completely different personality. She would never agree to be a mere secret lover, especially not in front of Sakura¡ªit was too degrading for her. ¡­ ¡®Since there¡¯s no perfect solution!¡¯ Sasuke decided to be bold and reckless instead. Activating his [Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan], he used genjutsu on Sakura for the first time, implanting a belief in her heart: she was one of Sasuke¡¯s harem consorts, and as such, she must accept the existence of other beautiful women around him in the future. If she was to enter the palace, she had to follow its rules. Having no perfect solution, Sasuke resorted to using genjutsu on Sakura to ensure she wouldn¡¯t cry, rage, or cause unnecessary drama when he added more women to his harem. ¡­ After successfully casting the genjutsu, Sasuke boldly stepped forward in front of the entire class and gently caressed Ino¡¯s soft cheeks. Why didn¡¯t he use genjutsu on Ino instead? Because using genjutsu to win a woman¡¯s heart was beneath him. Sasuke wanted to win over not just their bodies but their genuine affection. Sakura already loved him, so he used genjutsu on her only to smooth things over as he expanded his harem. Winning Ino¡¯s heart in real-time, watching her gradually fall for him, brought far more satisfaction. Resorting to genjutsu to force Ino¡¯s love would not only feel sleazy but also ruin the fun of the chase. Every shy moment and heartbeat from a beautiful girl during the courtship process was worth savoring. ¡°¡­¡± Ino was stunned. ¡°¡­¡± The entire class of soon-to-be ninja was equally dumbfounded. ¡°Sasuke¡­¡± ¡°He¡­ he just touched Ino¡¯s face¡­¡± ¡°And he did it right in front of Sakura!¡± ¡°Yet Sakura isn¡¯t angry or freaking out. How is this possible?¡± Naruto was equally shocked. He couldn¡¯t understand what Sasuke was trying to do. Even Hinata, who usually stayed in the background with little presence, was curious now. Her heart was usually fixated on Naruto, but the unfolding drama between Sasuke, Sakura, and Ino was just too captivating. ¡°Is this really Sasuke? He seems so different from before.¡± Hinata observed Sasuke closely. While his appearance remained unchanged, his demeanor had completely transformed. Not only was he with Sakura, but now, he was brazenly touching Ino in front of the entire class. ¡°¡­¡± Ino¡¯s heart raced chaotically. ¡®This is Sasuke¡­¡¯ If it had been any other boy touching her soft cheeks like this, she would¡¯ve broken his hand. ¡°Sasuke¡­¡± Ino was astonished to feel both of Sasuke¡¯s hands cupping her cheeks as he gently parted her hair with his fingers. ¡°Ino, this hairstyle doesn¡¯t suit you. Change it.¡± At that moment, Ino froze, her wide, shocked eyes locked on Sasuke. It felt as though countless electric currents surged through her body, leaving her paralyzed, her heart pounding wildly. A mix of emotions overwhelmed her: Joy. Surprise. Disbelief. And even a hint of sorrow¡­ Tears began to stream down Ino¡¯s face in that moment. Chapter 18: Sakura and Ino Chapter 18: Sakura and Ino In the ninja class, not only were there students from Konoha Village who hadn¡¯t graduated yet, but also their teacher, Iruka. ¡®Sasuke¡­ he actually kissed Yamanaka Ino directly!¡¯ Too outrageous! Too reckless! But considering he was the genius of the Ninja Academy and a descendant of the Uchiha clan, no one dared question him too much. Besides, judging by Ino¡¯s blushing and shy expression, it seemed she had no objections¡­ With graduation around the corner, even if Ino decided to sleep with Sasuke, Iruka had no authority to intervene. ¡°¡­¡­¡± The current situation, however, was genuinely hard to process. --- The onlookers, young ninjas, were stunned. ¡°No way! I only just found out Sakura and Sasuke were together today.¡± ¡°And now, suddenly¡­ Sasuke kissed Ino?¡± ¡°What just happened? Is my brain malfunctioning?¡± ¡°If Sakura likes Sasuke, why is she completely indifferent?¡± That¡¯s right! Everyone knew Sakura¡¯s obsession with Sasuke. If he kissed another girl, she would have gone berserk! Yet she stood there like a puppet, motionless by Sasuke¡¯s side, as if watching her boyfriend kiss Ino was the most natural thing in the world. ¡®It must be said!¡¯ ¡®The Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan is incredible.¡¯ No one present had seen such an advanced ocular jutsu before, so they didn¡¯t realize Sakura had already fallen under a genjutsu.If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. --- Because the man in front of her was Sasuke, no matter how overboard he went, Ino couldn¡¯t reject him. She was simply overwhelmed. ¡°Sasuke¡­ what¡­ what does this mean?¡± Why kiss her in front of everyone? Was it out of pity? Or was he trying to humiliate her? Sasuke looked at Ino¡¯s face. He had just adjusted her hairstyle, revealing her round cheeks and delicate features. She was especially beautiful. Sasuke placed his hand on Ino¡¯s cheek, stroking it gently, and smiled. ¡°Silly girl, how could I not know how you feel about me?¡± ¡°It¡¯s just that you¡¯ve always been less direct than Sakura.¡± ¡°A few days ago, Sakura confessed her feelings to me, and I accepted her.¡± ¡°And now, I accept your feelings too.¡± As he spoke, Sasuke boldly wrapped one arm around Sakura¡¯s slender waist and the other around Ino¡¯s soft waist. At that moment! Not only was Ino completely flustered, but the entire crowd was dumbfounded. Shikamaru, Choji, Shino, Kiba¡ªeven Naruto and Hinata¡ªstood there, mouths agape in shock. Iruka, who had been single his whole life, was utterly floored. He had never witnessed such a jaw-dropping scene. ¡°Sas¡­ Sasuke!¡± Ino¡¯s heart raced as if it were about to leap out of her chest. Her eyes reflected utter disbelief, and she even stammered as she spoke. ¡°Sasuke, are you serious?¡± ¡°This kind of thing¡­ this kind of thing¡­¡± The situation was so unexpected that Ino didn¡¯t even know where to begin criticizing it. Sasuke leaned closer to Ino again. His handsome face brushed against her soft, pretty cheek, making her blush furiously once more. ¡®Is this really Sasuke?¡¯ ¡®Why is he treating me like this¡­¡¯ It was utterly embarrassing, especially with so many classmates watching¡­ --- Sasuke kissed Ino for a long time before finally releasing her. Then, with a playful smirk, he said, ¡°Ino, now all you need to do is tell me if you¡¯re willing to be my girlfriend¡ªtogether with Sakura.¡± Ino¡¯s mind went blank. She looked at Sakura, who was standing motionless beside them, and said in disbelief, ¡°Sasuke, this is all too sudden.¡± ¡°Will Sakura¡­ will she agree to this?¡± Wait! Ino suddenly felt ashamed. How could she even consider agreeing to share Sasuke with Sakura? Even if she loved Sasuke deeply, the idea of two girls being his girlfriends simultaneously was just too much. What was Sasuke, an emperor? In the ninja world, harems were practically unheard of. Most couples in Konoha were one-on-one. Sasuke¡¯s attempt at this kind of relationship was unprecedented! ¡°You don¡¯t need to worry about Sakura. She loves me very much.¡± ¡°As long as it¡¯s something I want, she¡¯ll agree to it,¡± Sasuke said, waiting for Ino¡¯s response. He was confident Ino wouldn¡¯t refuse. And sure enough! Though it was hard to accept, Ino eventually nodded. ¡°If¡­ if Sakura agrees, then I¡¯m willing. I¡¯m willing to be your girlfriend alongside her.¡± ¡°Perfect!¡± Sasuke was elated, embracing both girls tightly. In the Naruto anime world, his harem was officially established. Sasuke was ecstatic. --- Though Sakura and Ino agreed, their classmates struggled to accept it¡ªespecially Naruto! He stood up, face red with anger, and pointed at Sasuke. ¡°Sasuke, you said you¡¯d make Sakura happy!¡± ¡°But now¡­ now¡­¡± Sasuke¡¯s demeanor turned icy. He sneered. ¡°And what about now, Naruto?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t overestimate yourself!¡± ¡°Sakura and Ino have both liked me for years. Everyone in class knows that. To make them both happy, I¡¯ve decided to make them both my girlfriends.¡± ¡°You¡­¡± Naruto was speechless. He looked at Sakura with sorrowful eyes. Even after all this, was she still willing to stay by Sasuke¡¯s side? Shikamaru, unable to stand it any longer, chimed in. ¡°Ino, calm down.¡± ¡°If Sasuke were just your boyfriend, that might be acceptable, but¡­¡± Sasuke¡¯s temper flared. The overwhelming pressure of his chakra erupted, forcing everyone to step back in fear. Even Iruka was stunned. ¡®What terrifying chakra!¡¯ Sasuke¡¯s menacing aura left Shikamaru pale-faced. ¡°Shikamaru, don¡¯t make me hit you while I¡¯m in a good mood!¡± ¡°I, Uchiha Sasuke, do as I please. Who are you to comment?¡± ¡°Sakura and Ino are both my girlfriends now. From today onward, anyone who dares gossip will get beaten up.¡± Because they were old classmates, Sasuke spared them further humiliation. Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have settled for mere verbal warnings. ¡°¡­¡­¡± Shikamaru fell silent immediately. His mind raced with disbelief. Even though Sasuke had always been a genius, this level of power was beyond comprehension. ¡®How did he become so strong?¡¯ ¡®Is this really Sasuke?¡¯ At that moment¡­ Chapter 19: Stunned Chapter 19: Stunned At this moment, Sasuke felt incredible! Not just physically, but mentally as well. Being able to hold the delicate, soft Sakura and Ino in his arms, right in front of his ninja classmates, was a source of unparalleled pride. This sense of swagger and superiority was intoxicating. --- Once seated, the table and chairs blocked the view, so Sasuke didn¡¯t have to worry about being seen. He leaned close to whisper into Ino''s ear, "Relax, no one will see." ¡°Sasuke¡­¡± Ino wanted to protest. Today was already groundbreaking¡ªshe had agreed, along with Sakura, to become Sasuke''s girlfriend for the first time. But she never expected Sasuke to take things this far. ¡°¡­¡­¡± Ino was utterly flustered. Yet, she no longer resisted. ¡®It seems Sakura has already been touched by Sasuke like this many times¡­¡¯ ¡®If Sakura can accept it, and I¡¯m now Sasuke¡¯s girlfriend too, I can¡¯t let myself be less than Sakura.¡¯ With that competitive mindset¡­ --- This was outrageous! Naruto Uzumaki was so furious that his teeth were practically grinding together. He thought Sasuke having Sakura was already bad enough. But he had severely underestimated Sasuke''s shamelessness. And yet, not a single person in the room dared to oppose him! After all, neither Sakura nor Ino objected. What right did anyone else have to intervene?If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. In the corner, Hinata clenched her small fists tightly. She was very worried about Naruto. ¡®Naruto-kun¡­¡¯ ¡®How did Sasuke turn into this?¡¯ ¡®In class, Sasuke¡¯s behavior¡ªholding Sakura and Ino at the same time¡ªit¡¯s so embarrassing.¡¯ Hinata couldn¡¯t help but feel relieved. ¡®At least I never liked Sasuke. Otherwise, being like Sakura and Ino would be too humiliating.¡¯ That said, Hinata was fundamentally different from Sakura and Ino. Sakura¡¯s status was the lowest, and Ino¡¯s was only slightly better. Hinata, on the other hand, was the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan. With such a status, sharing a man with other girls was unthinkable. But! Hinata was bound to underestimate Sasuke''s willfulness. She thought not liking Sasuke would protect her from his grasp. Yet, in Sasuke''s harem, Hinata was destined to be number one. Especially the Hinata from *Naruto Shippuden*¡ªher figure, her face, her long, flowing hair¡­ --- ¡°Ahem!¡± The class was dead silent. Sasuke''s earlier display had intimidated everyone; even though his behavior was outrageous, no one dared to speak up. It was well known that no one in the class could defeat Sasuke before, let alone now. As the teacher, Iruka still had to say something. ¡°Today is a very important day.¡± ¡°Whether you graduate and become capable genin will depend on today¡¯s exam.¡± The ninja exam consisted of a written test, taijutsu test, and ninjutsu test. ¡°Sasuke Uchiha, you¡¯ve always been the class genius. You go first.¡± Iruka didn¡¯t want to criticize Sasuke¡¯s behavior. Although it set a bad example, since neither Sakura nor Ino objected, anything more would seem meddlesome. If Sasuke had forcibly taken advantage of Sakura and Ino, Iruka would have stopped him at all costs. But now, with Sakura and Ino lying in Sasuke¡¯s arms, both brimming with affection, Iruka, a lifelong bachelor, could only feel envious. ¡°Sensei, there¡¯s no need for me to take the exam. Just arrange for my graduation directly!¡± Sasuke seemed unwilling to let go of the bliss of holding both Sakura and Ino. His hands stroked their smooth, alluring thighs. The sensation was intoxicating, making him unwilling to part. ¡°Sasuke, don¡¯t go too far!¡± Iruka had tolerated Sasuke for long enough. ¡°What?¡± ¡°Sensei, are you saying I¡¯ve gone too far?¡± Sasuke¡¯s aura instantly turned terrifying. It was reminiscent of Orochimaru¡¯s first appearance in the original series, where his killing intent froze people in their tracks. At this moment, Sasuke¡¯s aura was no less chilling. What¡¯s more, Sasuke possessed the Sharingan, which Orochimaru did not. Just one glance from his eyes, and Iruka felt as though he had fallen into a deep abyss, surrounded by hellish torment. Iruka¡¯s heart was gripped by a demonic claw, leaving him breathless with fear. ¡®Oh no!¡¯ ¡®Is this really Sasuke?¡¯ ¡®How did he become so powerful!¡¯ Just one look! Iruka broke into a cold sweat. He realized deeply that Sasuke¡¯s strength had far surpassed his own. If Sasuke wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as snapping a twig. ¡®Terrifying. This is the genius of the Uchiha clan?¡¯ A Sasuke like this was indeed entitled to hold two girls in his arms! In an instant, Iruka¡¯s earlier disapproval turned into complete acceptance. Iruka even considered introducing more female ninjas to Sasuke so he could produce more geniuses for the village. ¡°Sasuke¡¯s strength is undeniable!¡± ¡°Sasuke passes and graduates.¡± Iruka respectfully handed over the Leaf Village headband, marked with the village¡¯s emblem. Possessing it signified being a Leaf Village ninja. But Sasuke¡¯s hands were preoccupied, busy caressing Sakura and Ino¡¯s thighs. He had no time to take the headband. Perhaps in the world of passionate anime, the headband was a symbol of great honor. However, Sasuke¡¯s aspirations were different. Rather than pursuing honor, he preferred enjoying the company of beautiful anime girls, watching them shyly nestle in his embrace, doing everything to make him happy. That was Sasuke¡¯s true pursuit of happiness. ¡°Iruka, not just me. Let Sakura and Ino pass as well.¡± ¡°They¡¯re busy being my girlfriends right now and don¡¯t have time to take the exam.¡± So domineering! Sasuke was pushing things too far! As a genius with special privileges, it made sense for him to graduate without a test. But demanding the same privileges for his two girlfriends, Sakura and Ino, was outrageous. Shikamaru, Kiba, and the others all looked displeased. Sasuke, seeing Iruka¡¯s hesitation, continued, ¡°Don¡¯t worry. Sakura and Ino are my women. Not only will I protect them for life, but I¡¯ll also personally train them. Passing the genin exam is just a small matter, and even becoming elite jonin is no problem.¡± Such arrogance! Naruto, Shino, and others expected Iruka to get angry. To their surprise, Iruka smiled warmly and said, ¡°Sasuke-kun is right. With his talent, becoming a legendary ninja in the Leaf Village, or even the entire shinobi world, is a given.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll arrange for Sakura and Ino to graduate immediately. Their headbands are ready.¡± Chapter 20: Sakura and Ino Chapter 20: Sakura and Ino Sasuke¡¯s behavior was undeniably over the top! But Iruka¡¯s reaction left everyone baffled. If not for Sasuke¡¯s overwhelming intimidation, the scene would have undoubtedly sparked waves of discontent. Naruto Uzumaki, in particular, would have been the first to lead the opposition! ¡®This is so unfair!¡¯ However, Sasuke leveraging his genius privileges to help Sakura and Ino graduate without taking the exam wasn¡¯t the most shocking part. ¡®How can this be allowed?¡¯ It was hard for anyone to accept! --- Sasuke, holding Sakura and Ino close, stood up and said with a smirk, ¡°In that case, I¡¯ll be leaving with my girlfriends.¡± Iruka made no move to stop him. ¡°Take care!¡± Granting Sasuke special privileges stemmed from Iruka¡¯s realization that Sasuke¡¯s strength had already surpassed his own. At the very least, Sasuke was at the level of a special jonin. As for Sakura and Ino, Iruka, as their teacher, knew well enough that they would have passed the exam effortlessly with their skills. So, giving Sasuke face wasn¡¯t out of the question. --- Thus, amid envious and jealous stares, Sasuke left the classroom with a bold stride, holding Sakura and Ino by their slender waists. ¡°¡­¡­¡± You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author. After Sasuke and the others had gone, Kiba, sharing Naruto¡¯s impulsive temper, voiced his dissatisfaction. ¡°Iruka-sensei, does this really follow the rules?¡± Iruka didn¡¯t bother to hide the truth. ¡°The rules are made for ordinary people like you.¡± ¡°Can any of you have two girlfriends at the same time, like Sasuke?¡± The entire class fell silent. ¡°Furthermore, I noticed earlier that Sasuke¡¯s strength has completely surpassed mine.¡± ¡°Iruka, a mere chunin, is no match for him. You can imagine Sasuke¡¯s true level.¡± Ch¨­ji and Naruto were shocked. ¡°No way!¡± ¡°Are you saying Sasuke Uchiha is already at jonin level?¡± How could this be? The disparity between them and Sasuke, who was in the same class, was this vast? The class was collectively stunned, but they understood that Iruka wouldn¡¯t lie about something like this. After all, Iruka publicly granting Sasuke special privileges was proof enough of his power. --- Except for Sasuke, Sakura, and Ino, everyone else had to take the exam to graduate. --- After leaving the classroom and the ninja academy, Ino¡¯s cheeks were bright red, her emotions a tangled mess. For her, too many things had happened today. Not only had she entered a relationship with Sasuke, but she also had to share him with Sakura. And this all-important graduation exam? Sasuke had dismissed it with just a few words, and she had passed without lifting a finger. Holding the Leaf Village headband, a symbol of successful graduation, felt like a dream. --- Walking along the streets of the Leaf Village, Sasuke still held Ino, making her feel incredibly self-conscious. She was overwhelmingly shy! But seeing Sakura, calm and unbothered by the situation, Ino hesitated to voice her discomfort. ¡°Sasuke, don¡¯t you think it¡¯s bad for us to graduate like this?¡± By all accounts, with their academic performances, they didn¡¯t need special privileges. They could¡¯ve passed the exam the normal way. Why go to such lengths? Sasuke kissed Sakura and Ino on the cheeks, savoring their fragrance with satisfaction. In the Leaf Village, who else could walk around like this, holding both Sakura and Ino, as carefree as Sasuke? Sasuke chuckled. ¡°Time is precious!¡± ¡°I know, Ino, and you too, Sakura, that with your usual performance, you could¡¯ve passed the exam easily.¡± ¡°But that would¡¯ve wasted too much time!¡± Sasuke¡¯s response puzzled Ino. ¡°Sasuke, why are you so concerned about saving time?¡± Such opportunities were rare. Sasuke didn¡¯t want to waste time on a mere graduation exam. ¡°¡­¡­¡± Ino¡¯s face turned crimson on the spot. To be honest, she hadn¡¯t fully grasped the implications of Sasuke¡¯s words. --- Silly girl. --- ¡°From today onward, Ino, you and Sakura are both my wives.¡± ¡°You¡¯ll both call me ¡®husband¡¯ from now on!¡± Sakura blushed fiercely. She already knew Sasuke was bold and shameless. --- Time flew by, and evening came. Both Sakura and Ino were utterly exhausted. ¡°You two should rest for a while and regain your strength.¡± Sasuke decided to stop for now. Although he could¡¯ve kept going, he wanted to consider Sakura and Ino¡¯s well-being. They still had to return home tonight. After all, it wouldn¡¯t be appropriate for them to spend their first night after graduation at Sasuke¡¯s place. He planned to let them nap for two hours before waking them and taking them home one by one. --- As Sakura and Ino drifted off to sleep, Sasuke initially planned to rest as well. But then he thought about getting some food for them. That way, when they woke up, they¡¯d have something to eat. That was what Sasuke believed a good boyfriend should do. In the future, when Sakura and Ino could stay overnight without going home¡­ --- Sasuke reflected on Sakura and Ino¡¯s beauty. It was exhilarating! It was blissful! This was the kind of life a reincarnator deserved! Walking along the streets of the Leaf Village, Sasuke didn¡¯t hold back and bought plenty of delicious food. As he was about to head back, something unexpected happened. Sasuke spotted Naruto, looking utterly dejected. ¡°Could it be that this kid failed the exam?¡± However, Naruto wasn¡¯t his main concern. What caught Sasuke¡¯s attention was the figure in the shadows behind Naruto¡ªHinata, secretly following him and watching over him with worry. Chapter 21: Hinata Chapter 21: Hinata Sasuke had gone out to buy food for Sakura and Ino so they could eat their fill after waking up, before returning home. Unexpectedly, he saw Naruto, who had failed the exam and couldn¡¯t graduate. Poor Naruto! Just like in the original story, this time, in the genin exam, Naruto was the only one in the whole class who didn¡¯t pass. The failure was due to his inability to perform the [Clone Jutsu]. Naruto¡¯s Clone Jutsu was terrible, and the clones he created were as useless as mud. Naruto had tried hard, but he made no progress at all. ... Naruto was in an absolutely terrible mood today! It had already taken him two days to reluctantly accept that his goddess Sakura was now with Sasuke. And today, Sasuke hit him with another blow. Sasuke was now with Ino too! They were all together! Not only that, but Sasuke had shown such incredible skills that he didn¡¯t even need to take the exam to graduate. He simply graduated directly, taking his two girlfriends, Sakura and Ino, along with him. What followed was an even bigger blow to Naruto! In the entire class exam, he was the only one who failed! Mocked again... But what hurt him even more was this: Even though Sakura was willing to share a boyfriend with Ino, she wouldn¡¯t spare Naruto a single glance. ... For Naruto, today was a day worse than death, leaving him utterly heartbroken. However! Poor, clueless Naruto didn¡¯t realize that he wasn¡¯t entirely alone.If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. Behind him, there was someone who had always been watching him, always caring about him¡ªHinata. ... Sasuke hesitated. He should be content with what he had and not go after Hinata as well. But! Now that he had run into Hinata alone, it was a rare opportunity that he couldn¡¯t let slip away. Hinata was different from Sakura and Ino. Hinata liked Naruto, not Sasuke. Thus, unless Sasuke used genjutsu, it would be hard to make Hinata willingly engage in anything inappropriate with him. However! In Sasuke¡¯s mind, Hinata held a high position in his future harem. He could take his time with her. There was no rush. ... And so, Sasuke made his move. Naruto, drowning in despair, was of no concern to Sasuke. His target was the adorable Hinata behind him. At this time, Hinata still had short hair and looked quite shy and socially anxious. ¡°Hinata!¡± Sasuke suddenly called out to her. Hinata was startled. ¡°You¡­ Uchiha Sasuke!¡± Hinata was incredibly cute, dressed modestly, and Sasuke found himself wanting to know more about her. He maintained a polite distance from Hinata, not overstepping any boundaries, and said, ¡°Hinata, I noticed you sneaking around. Who were you spying on?¡± Hinata¡¯s face instantly turned red as her secret was exposed. In the original story, Hinata only stuttered and fainted when talking to Naruto due to her overwhelming emotions. With other boys, she wasn¡¯t nearly as affected. Even though she was shy, she replied, ¡°No, no, I wasn¡¯t spying on anyone¡­¡± Sasuke didn¡¯t let her off so easily. ¡°Oh, so it was Naruto, wasn¡¯t it!¡± ¡°Hinata, why are you following Naruto? Do you have some improper intentions?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go tell Naruto!¡± Sasuke pretended to walk off to tattle on her. Hinata panicked and immediately grabbed his hand to stop him. ¡°Don¡¯t!¡± Heh! Sasuke chuckled to himself. Sleeping with Sakura and Ino had been incredibly satisfying, but teasing the shy Hinata like this was also quite entertaining. Sakura and Ino had liked Sasuke for years. Once they confessed, there was no need to take things slow¡ªit was straight to the exciting, intimate moments. Hinata, on the other hand, was different. She didn¡¯t even like Sasuke. Making her forget about Naruto and genuinely fall for Sasuke¡ªthat was where the fun lay. [Ding] [Congratulations on a successful passive sign-in, acquiring the Byakugan of the Hyuga Clan.] Sasuke was stunned! He looked at Hinata¡¯s small hand holding his in surprise. Could just this brief contact trigger a successful sign-in? However, Sasuke held himself back. This was their first proper meeting, and he wanted to leave a good impression on Hinata. If he wanted her to truly fall for him, there was no need to rush. ¡°Hinata, boys and girls shouldn¡¯t touch each other so casually. Don¡¯t take advantage of me.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hinata¡¯s face turned even redder! She quickly let go of Sasuke¡¯s hand. ¡°Don¡¯t tell Naruto!¡± Hinata grew more curious about Sasuke. Why was he so proper when it came to her? Could it be that Sasuke truly loved Sakura and Ino, which was why he couldn¡¯t help being so close to them? Hinata didn¡¯t realize that Sasuke¡¯s gentlemanly behavior was entirely an act. It was all to ensure that Hinata wouldn¡¯t dislike him and would start to feel fond of him. After all, Hinata didn¡¯t like Sasuke at this point. Not every girl was infatuated with Sasuke¡¯s handsome face. ¡°I won¡¯t tell Naruto, but why should I help you?¡± Sasuke looked at Hinata with a hint of heat in his eyes. Hinata seemed to sense Sasuke¡¯s bad intentions and hugged herself protectively. ¡°What do you want?¡± Sasuke immediately reined himself in and smiled. ¡°How about you treat me to a meal?¡± ¡°I¡¯m exhausted today and haven¡¯t eaten yet.¡± Hinata, being the Hyuga clan¡¯s heiress, obviously had no issue affording a meal for Sasuke. ¡°Alright!¡± Hinata led Sasuke to eat, lost in her thoughts along the way. Seeing that Sasuke wasn¡¯t speaking, she curiously asked, ¡°You didn¡¯t even take the exam today, yet you graduated and left. Why are you tired?¡± Sasuke replied ambiguously, ¡°Hinata, think about it. I left with Sakura and Ino in such a hurry. Now, I¡¯m tired and sore. What do you think I was doing with those delicate girls?¡± Hinata¡¯s face flushed red again. She shyly said, ¡°Shameless!¡± Sasuke feigned innocence. ¡°You asked the question. Besides, I didn¡¯t say anything specific. Why are you blushing?¡± ¡°Maybe I was moving houses, doing chores, and got tired from all the labor.¡± Hinata felt relieved. ¡°Really?¡± Sasuke saw how gullible she was and immediately laughed. ¡°Of course not! Do you know who I am? Living in the moment is my motto.¡± ¡°With girlfriends as beautiful as Sakura and Ino, of course, we¡¯d be doing what couples do.¡± ¡°Hmph!¡± Hinata was furious and turned to leave. This Sasuke was too much! She couldn¡¯t stay with him any longer, or her innocent mind would be corrupted by him. Chapter 22: Hinata, Sasuke Chapter 22: Hinata, Sasuke Hinata¡¯s cheeks turned bright red. She truly couldn¡¯t understand how Uchiha Sasuke could become so shameless. ¡°Hinata, how about we make a deal?¡± Hinata was clearly unhappy with Sasuke¡¯s suggestion and responded, ¡°What? Are you trying to threaten me again?¡± ¡°Fine, go ahead and tell Naruto that I was following him!¡± Dealing with this dangerous Sasuke was far worse than him exposing her secret to Naruto, so she wasn¡¯t afraid of his threats. Hinata wasn¡¯t dumb. The Sasuke standing before her now was completely different from the Sasuke she knew before. Back then, many girls in the ninja academy liked Sasuke. But Sasuke always acted disinterested. Now, not only did he publicly flaunt his relationships with Sakura and Ino in front of the entire class, but he was also engaging her in conversation. It was obvious¡ªHinata herself was likely Sasuke¡¯s next target. Hinata didn¡¯t want to have too much interaction with Sasuke. Her heart only held affection for Naruto, and she feared being ensnared by Sasuke. ¡­ Sasuke observed Hinata¡¯s adorable demeanor¡ªshe was truly captivating. ¡°Hinata, the deal I want to make has nothing to do with exposing you to Naruto.¡± His words piqued Hinata¡¯s curiosity. She stopped in her tracks, her guard up, and stared at Sasuke. ¡°Then what sneaky plan do you have now?¡± To avoid making Hinata dislike him, Sasuke maintained a proper distance, treating her like a regular friend. ¡°You were following Naruto this evening because you were worried he¡¯d fail the exam and do something rash, right?¡± Hinata was startled, her secret exposed by Sasuke¡¯s sharp insight. She quickly turned her face away, refusing to admit it. Sasuke continued with a smile, ¡°I can promise you that I¡¯ll protect Uzumaki Naruto from now on.¡± If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. ¡°But you¡¯ll have to agree to one condition of mine.¡± Hinata¡¯s face flushed instantly. ¡°I won¡¯t agree to any of your conditions! Naruto doesn¡¯t need your help.¡± Sasuke smirked. ¡°You can¡¯t be so sure about that.¡± ¡°Hinata, as the Hyuga clan¡¯s heiress, you must know how unfairly Naruto has been treated in Konoha since he was a child.¡± ¡°Now, the entire class has graduated successfully, except for Uzumaki Naruto, who failed.¡± ¡°Right now, Naruto is dejected and vulnerable. All it would take is for one wrong person to guide him down a dark path, and he¡¯d fall into the abyss, unable to return.¡± Sasuke¡¯s words were chilling, but they struck a chord in Hinata¡¯s heart. She understood Naruto well enough to know that it wouldn¡¯t take much for him to succumb to despair. Life had been unbearably difficult for Naruto in Konoha. Hinata hesitated. ¡°Why should I trust you?¡± Sasuke stepped closer to Hinata. At this close range, her sweet scent was intoxicating. Hinata, I¡¯ll make you mine one day, Sasuke thought to himself. But outwardly, he maintained his composed demeanor, replying earnestly, ¡°Because, like you, I want Naruto to live a good life.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t believe you!¡± Hinata shook her head. ¡°Uchiha Sasuke, you¡¯ve changed so much that I can¡¯t accept it.¡± Sasuke, with his handsome face and gentle voice, stood there as the wind blew leaves past him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I won¡¯t ask for anything excessive.¡± Without waiting for Hinata to refuse, Sasuke added, ¡°If you want to know how I plan to help Naruto, don¡¯t go to bed too early tonight. Wait for me to find you, and then you¡¯ll see my sincerity.¡± Hinata¡¯s face turned crimson again. ¡°Sasuke, you¡¯re shameless! Who would wait for you in the middle of the night?!¡± Sasuke chuckled. ¡°Not just waiting for me. We¡¯ll go together to help the lost Naruto find his way.¡± Before Hinata could react, Sasuke had already left. Because Sasuke had a theory. If this version of the Naruto anime world followed the original story, then tonight Mizuki would try to deceive Naruto into stealing the Scroll of Seals. This storyline had a significant flaw. If the Scroll of Seals was so important, how could Naruto¡ªa genin who couldn¡¯t even graduate¡ªsuccessfully steal it? If it were so easy to obtain, Mizuki wouldn¡¯t need to deceive Naruto. He could just steal it himself. This meant that only Naruto could take the scroll, which was why Mizuki manipulated him. Alternatively! Mizuki might have already figured out how to steal the [Scroll of Seals] but didn¡¯t want to expose himself. He used Naruto to retrieve the scroll, planning to disappear afterward and let Naruto take the blame. ¡­ The latter scenario seemed more plausible. Mizuki likely had a method to steal the Scroll of Seals but needed a scapegoat to bear the consequences. ¡­ Still, Sasuke wasn¡¯t certain about this anime world¡¯s version of events. Whether or not Mizuki would target Naruto here remained unknown. However! Even if this anime world deviated from the original story, it didn¡¯t matter. At worst, Sasuke could take Hinata out for a nighttime date instead. The more time they spent together, the more familiar she¡¯d grow with him. Sasuke was confident he¡¯d eventually make Hinata willingly fall for him. ¡­ After buying some food, Sasuke returned to his home. His [Danger Detection] function now included a new name alongside Sakura Haruno and Ayame: Yamanaka Ino. With the system¡¯s protection, Sasuke didn¡¯t have to worry about their safety. If the system couldn¡¯t be relied upon, then nothing in this anime world could be trusted. ¡­ Sakura and Ino, worn out from an entire day with Sasuke, had only recently fallen asleep. It was clear they hadn¡¯t rested well. But Sasuke was a caring partner. He held himself back, simply lying down beside Sakura and Ino, hugging them gently for half an hour. Blushing, they both stirred. ¡°Sasuke!¡± ¡°Honey, how long were we asleep?¡± Sasuke kissed both Sakura and Ino on their lips, smiling as he replied, ¡°Not too long. Honestly, I didn¡¯t want to wake you.¡± ¡°But considering how your parents might worry if you don¡¯t return home tonight, let¡¯s eat something, and then I¡¯ll take you home.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Sakura and Ino exchanged shy glances, their faces turning red. ¡­ After dinner, Sasuke first escorted Sakura home, then Ino. When Sakura returned home, the genjutsu Sasuke had used to manipulate her thoughts slightly loosened. ¡°How annoying. Why did I agree to let Sasuke take Ino too¡­¡± Sakura couldn¡¯t understand it. Given her personality, she should¡¯ve wanted to monopolize Sasuke completely. Yet today, she had stripped naked alongside Ino, engaging in all kinds of inappropriate acts with Sasuke. Oddly enough, despite her intense shyness, she felt no inclination to resist. Sakura hadn¡¯t realized that her mind was still under the control of Sasuke¡¯s Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan genjutsu. ¡­ Ino¡¯s emotions were even more conflicted. ¡®How did I become Sasuke¡¯s woman?!¡¯ ¡®And with that Sakura¡­ together with Sasuke¡­¡¯ Ahh! This was something her parents could never know. But Ino¡¯s concerns were unnecessary. When Sasuke escorted her home, he had already used genjutsu to control her parents. Sasuke would never allow his women to suffer any grievances¡ªnot even from their own families. Chapter 23: Sasuke, Hinata Chapter 23: Sasuke, Hinata Sasuke¡¯s proficiency with the Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan genjutsu was becoming more refined, even hinting at surpassing Uchiha Shisui¡¯s Kotoamatsukami. Kotoamatsukami was known as the strongest genjutsu in Naruto. However, with the [Ultimate Sign-In Invincibility System], Sasuke¡¯s Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan had nearly reached the same level. This newfound power allowed Sasuke to act with even greater confidence and abandon. ... In the past, to prevent Sakura¡¯s parents¡ªHaruno Mebuki and Haruno Kizashi¡ªfrom blaming her, Sasuke had been willing to expose his strength to intimidate them. Now, dealing with Ino¡¯s parents, Sasuke didn¡¯t feel the need to repeat that tactic. Why bother with a complicated approach when he had the superior ability of the Mangeky¨­ Sharingan genjutsu? Besides! Shikamaru and Choji had likely already informed Ino¡¯s parents about Sasuke¡¯s behavior¡ªthat he was openly dating both Sakura and Ino. In Konoha, it was doubtful that Ino¡¯s parents could accept their daughter sharing a boyfriend with another girl. Any explanations Sasuke could offer would fall on deaf ears and achieve nothing. Convincing Ino¡¯s parents to let her become part of Sasuke¡¯s harem was nearly impossible. So, Sasuke decided to use his Mangeky¨­ Sharingan genjutsu to solve the issue directly. ... When Ino returned home, she was stunned! Strange things happened every year, but today was particularly bizarre. At the ninja academy, Sakura had unexpectedly agreed to share Sasuke with Ino, allowing him to touch them both without resistance. Now back home, even after Ino¡¯s parents learned that Sasuke was her boyfriend, they didn¡¯t scold or oppose her. They didn¡¯t even reprimand her for coming home so late. If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. ¡®This is too weird!¡¯ Not only had Sasuke and Sakura changed, but even Ino¡¯s parents had undergone a drastic shift. ... No one answered Ino¡¯s questions about these strange occurrences. Meanwhile, Sasuke had already set his sights on his next target: Hinata Hyuga. --- In the original story: When Hinata was younger, she was once kidnapped by a jonin from an enemy village. Her father, Hiashi Hyuga, had killed the kidnapper with a single strike of Gentle Fist. However, this led to a significant diplomatic incident, and ultimately, Neji Hyuga¡¯s father had to sacrifice himself in Hiashi¡¯s place. Because of this, the Hyuga Clan was known as the most formidable ninja family in Konoha. Abducting the Hyuga heiress, Hinata, in silence was no easy task. ... To be honest, Sasuke wasn¡¯t afraid of anyone in the Hyuga Clan with his current strength. Still, he didn¡¯t want to stir up unnecessary trouble just to pursue Hinata. Instead, he opted for a more discreet approach. Currently, his sign-in abilities included: jonin-level chakra, the Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan, Nine-Tails chakra, the ability to make Ichiraku Ramen, and the [Byakugan]. Sasuke was a bit curious¡ªwhen he became involved with Ino, why hadn¡¯t he signed in to acquire the Yamanaka Clan¡¯s Mind Transfer Jutsu? However, since the system hadn¡¯t triggered, Sasuke didn¡¯t dwell on it. Even a mere touch with Hinata had allowed him to acquire her Kekkei Genkai, the [Byakugan]. In other words, Sasuke now simultaneously wielded the Sharingan and the Byakugan. His power was beyond measure! ... Sasuke activated the Byakugan, using it to observe and analyze the Hyuga Clan¡¯s security measures. ¡°The Byakugan is really useful!¡± Sasuke muttered to himself. ¡°If I could upgrade it to the [Tenseigan] through the sign-in system, it¡¯d be even better.¡± After gaining a thorough understanding of the Hyuga Clan¡¯s defenses with his Byakugan, Sasuke began his plan. The Byakugan he obtained was from the Hyuga main family¡¯s heiress, Hinata, and it was flawless. Unlike Neji¡¯s branch-family Byakugan, which had certain limitations, Hinata¡¯s was perfect. --- Hinata¡¯s status as the Hyuga heiress didn¡¯t guarantee her a luxurious life. Her father, Hiashi, was extremely strict with her, hoping she would one day lead the Hyuga Clan. Unfortunately, no matter how hard Hinata worked, her limited talent couldn¡¯t meet expectations. As a result, she lived under immense pressure every day. ... Due to her lack of talent, even her treatment as the heiress wasn¡¯t particularly favorable. But today, Hinata wasn¡¯t dwelling on her frustrations. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Part of her mind worried about Naruto. The other part kept thinking about the Uchiha Sasuke she had encountered earlier that evening. ¡°That troublesome guy¡­¡± ¡°He wouldn¡¯t actually come looking for me tonight, would he?¡± ¡°With his abilities, he¡¯d definitely be caught by my uncles in the Hyuga Clan¡­¡± Suddenly, Sasuke appeared in Hinata¡¯s room. ¡°My dear Hinata, were you worried about me?¡± he teased. Hinata was so startled that she nearly screamed. ¡°Shh!¡± Sasuke gestured urgently. Hinata couldn¡¯t make any noise; if she did, the consequences would be disastrous. Sasuke wasn¡¯t confident he could use his Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan genjutsu on the entire Hyuga Clan. ¡°Sasuke! You¡¯re insane! How dare you sneak into the Hyuga Clan¡­ Do you have a death wish?¡± Under the moonlight, Sasuke smiled handsomely. ¡°Why, Hinata, are you worried about me?¡± ¡°Who¡¯d worry about you?!¡± Hinata denied immediately. ¡°You just scared me!¡± Sasuke straightened up and said seriously, ¡°I told you this evening¡ªwe¡¯ll go together tonight to help Naruto.¡± At the mention of Naruto, Hinata let her guard down and asked anxiously, ¡°Did something happen to Naruto?¡± Sasuke replied, ¡°Change your clothes first. We¡¯ll go check on him together.¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hinata hesitated. She wasn¡¯t sure if she could trust Sasuke. Sasuke seemed to notice her reluctance. Speaking earnestly, he said, ¡°Hinata, you can feel it¡ªI wouldn¡¯t harm you.¡± Sasuke¡¯s gaze was filled with deep emotion. It was the same affection Sasuke had felt for anime Hinata before his reincarnation. Hinata could sense it. Her heart stirred. How could Sasuke¡­ ¡®That¡¯s the look of someone deeply in love.¡¯ It was the same look Hinata had when she thought of Naruto. ¡®Could Sasuke have been secretly in love with me all this time?¡¯ ¡®Impossible!¡¯ It was absolutely impossible! Sasuke was a scoundrel who openly flaunted his relationships with Sakura and Ino during the day. Someone like him could never be deeply affectionate. ¡°If you¡¯re lying to me, I¡¯ll never trust you again,¡± Hinata warned before blushing and adding, ¡°Turn around. I need to change.¡± ¡°Alright! Hurry up,¡± Sasuke said, pretending to be gentlemanly. Remarkably, he didn¡¯t peek at Hinata while she changed. After all, Hinata was destined to become the queen of his harem¡ªthere was no need to rush things. Chapter 24: Hinata Starts Paying Attention to Sasuke Chapter 24: Hinata Starts Paying Attention to Sasuke The moonlight in Konoha Village was bright, and Hinata felt incredibly conflicted. She couldn¡¯t understand how Sasuke, who once seemed so distant, now felt so close and intrusive. She wanted to kick him out, yet she was genuinely worried about Naruto¡¯s safety. ¡°Are you ready yet?¡± Sasuke asked. ¡°I¡¯m ready!¡± Hinata replied, trying to calm herself. However, when Sasuke immediately approached her and, without hesitation, wrapped an arm around her, it was as if both their heartbeats became audible. ¡°W-What are you doing?¡± Hinata panicked instantly. Sasuke, with a serious expression, explained, ¡°Don¡¯t overthink it. With your skills, it¡¯s nearly impossible to leave the Hyuga Clan undetected.¡± ¡°You¡¯ll have to rely on me!¡± Hinata¡¯s feelings were indescribable. She regretted it. She shouldn¡¯t have cooperated with this shameless Sasuke, not even for Naruto¡¯s sake. Now, pushing him away wasn¡¯t an option. Even though Sasuke pretended to be serious, who knew what he was really thinking inside? ¡°Are you ready?¡± he asked again. Unlike Sakura and Ino, Hinata required a more gradual approach. Rushing things would only ruin everything. ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡± Sasuke announced. Activating his Byakugan, Sasuke observed the Hyuga Clan¡¯s defenses and, with his incredible strength, carried Hinata and left the Hyuga compound unnoticed. This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. Few ninjas in the entire world could pull off such a feat. ... Hinata couldn¡¯t believe what had just happened. ¡°We just¡­ left? Just like that?¡± ¡°Sasuke, how did you manage that?¡± When Sasuke used the Byakugan, he also combined it with the Sharingan, disguising his actions with genjutsu. He had no intention of revealing his full capabilities just yet. Exposing his trump cards prematurely wasn¡¯t a wise move. Even Hinata didn¡¯t know that Sasuke, a Uchiha, had also mastered the Hyuga Clan¡¯s Byakugan. If this secret were to reach the higher-ups of Konoha or other villages, it would undoubtedly lead to trouble. And trouble would only delay Sasuke¡¯s plans to build his harem in this anime world. ... Fighting and killing weren¡¯t nearly as enjoyable as courting women. ¡°Sasuke¡ª¡± ¡°Ahem!¡± Sasuke cleared his throat and said, ¡°Sorry, I got distracted. I almost mistook you for Sakura or Ino.¡± ¡°Sasuke, please be respectful.¡± ¡°You¡¯re right,¡± Sasuke replied quickly. ¡°Let¡¯s hurry up and find Naruto.¡± That was close¡ªhe had nearly ruined everything. If this caused Hinata to dislike him, Sasuke would be forced to use his Sharingan genjutsu to win her over. But resorting to such measures felt beneath him. He wanted Hinata to genuinely fall in love with him. ... Hinata¡¯s heart was racing. That was far too close! Her innocence as a girl had almost been compromised. If it weren¡¯t for the late hour and the fact that they were already outside, Hinata wouldn¡¯t have stayed with Sasuke any longer. ... Using the Byakugan, Sasuke scanned the surroundings of Konoha Village. If the original storyline remained unchanged, Mizuki would be lurking outside the village, waiting for Naruto to bring out the Scroll of Seals. Persistence pays off! Just as Hinata was about to give up, feeling that Sasuke¡¯s intentions toward her were impure and that staying alone with him for too long was dangerous, Sasuke suddenly exclaimed, ¡°Hinata, look! I¡¯ve found it.¡± Hinata looked at Sasuke with skepticism. Noticing her mistrust, Sasuke said earnestly, ¡°I know¡ªI accidentally treated you like Sakura and Ino earlier and nearly overstepped my bounds. That¡¯s why you¡¯re wary of me now.¡± ¡°I promise I won¡¯t touch you without your consent.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll walk ahead, and you can follow me.¡± ¡°Just make sure not to make any noise!¡± Hinata hesitated but ultimately decided to follow. Since she was already here, she might as well see things through. If Sasuke deceived her tonight, she would never trust him again. ... Sasuke moved ahead, with Hinata trailing cautiously behind. Eventually, they spotted Iruka. ¡°Iruka-sensei?¡± Hinata gasped in surprise. ¡°Shh!¡± Sasuke gestured for her to be quiet. ¡°We just need to follow Iruka, and we¡¯ll find Naruto!¡± ¡°Really?¡± Hinata¡¯s trust in Sasuke was still very low. ¡°Trust me!¡± Sasuke gave her a determined look. ¡°Stick close.¡± Sasuke leapt high into a tree, positioning himself at a vantage point to observe everything below. ¡°That¡¯s so high¡­¡± Hinata hesitated but gritted her teeth and tried to follow. Just as she was about to fall, Sasuke caught her and pulled her into his arms. Sasuke held a finger to his lips, signaling her to be quiet once more. ¡°Sorry, Hinata. I didn¡¯t mean to take advantage of you.¡± ¡°But your skills are lacking. If I hadn¡¯t caught you, you would¡¯ve fallen.¡± ¡°And we¡¯re tailing a chunin, Iruka. Without me, you¡¯d definitely be discovered.¡± Hinata¡¯s face turned bright red. She could feel Sasuke¡¯s breath as he spoke. For the first time, she realized that boys could smell so fresh and clean. Not only was Sasuke handsome, but even his scent was pleasant. This feeling was strange. Although she liked Naruto, she couldn¡¯t deny that Sasuke was undeniably outstanding. ¡®No wonder Sakura and Ino like him so much!¡¯ ¡®They¡¯re even willing to share him¡­¡¯ Hinata resigned herself to the situation. ¡°Fine, fine. I won¡¯t say anything.¡± Hinata was adorably flustered. In the original story, she could hardly talk to Naruto without fainting from excitement. Yet, here in Sasuke¡¯s arms, she managed to stay composed¡ªaside from the blushing and rapid heartbeat, of course. ... Iruka seemed frantic, searching for something across the village. Sasuke, still holding the cute and flustered Hinata, quietly followed. Seeing Sasuke¡¯s impressive abilities, even a chunin like Iruka failed to notice him, Hinata whispered, ¡°What is Iruka-sensei looking for?¡± Sasuke leaned close to her ear and replied, ¡°If I¡¯m not mistaken, he¡¯s looking for Naruto.¡± This wasn¡¯t a good sign! Chapter 25: Hinata Chapter 25: Hinata "Alright, Iruka seems to have found the exact location." Sasuke carried Hinata and quickly followed. Hinata''s mind was in turmoil! ... Compared to Sasuke holding Hinata, Naruto was having a much rougher time. Just like in the original story, he had failed the graduation exam and was deceived by Mizuki. Mizuki, like Iruka, was a Ch¨±nin of Konoha and an instructor at the Ninja Academy. However, compared to Iruka, the two were like night and day¡ªone was a true teacher, while the other was a scumbag misleading students. Mizuki tricked Naruto into stealing the Scroll of Seals. And Naruto actually managed to steal it! Now, every Ch¨±nin and J¨­nin in Konoha was searching for Naruto. Yet, Naruto had no idea how much trouble he was in. ... At this moment, in the forest outside Konoha. Rustle, rustle! Naruto hugged the massive Scroll of Seals, nearly half his height, his face filled with excitement. Mizuki had deceived him, saying that as long as he learned the jutsu inside, he could officially graduate. The Scroll of Seals contained Konoha''s forbidden techniques¡ªjutsus that ninja were strictly prohibited from learning on their own. But Naruto, desperate to graduate, didn''t care about any of that. Since he had already stolen it, he might as well start learning. "Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu?" Naruto frowned in confusion. "The first one is a Clone Jutsu? The one I''m bad at? Let me see..." In the Genin exam, Naruto had failed precisely because of his poor performance in the Clone Jutsu. So, Clone Jutsu had become an obsession for him. ... Meanwhile, as Naruto was secretly practicing forbidden techniques, all the Ch¨±nin and J¨­nin in Konoha were scouring the village for him.This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. As Naruto''s teacher, Iruka knew him best. So right now, he was extremely anxious. However, the one who found Naruto first was Mizuki! Since Mizuki had arranged the meeting place, it was only natural that he would reach Naruto before Iruka. By the time Iruka arrived¡ª Mizuki had already cruelly revealed Naruto''s true identity. Mizuki was truly a heartless bastard! Seeing that Naruto had successfully stolen the Scroll of Seals, he had no intention of letting him live. Before killing Naruto, he wanted to crush him psychologically¡ª "Because inside you is a monster! You are the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox that killed Iruka¡¯s parents!" "HAHAHAHA!" Mizuki, the lunatic, was immensely satisfied upon seeing Naruto¡¯s devastated reaction after learning his true identity. Iruka, seeing this, was heartbroken. "Naruto, don''t believe him!" Iruka shouted desperately. "Damn it!" "Iruka, how dare you ruin my plans¡ª" As expected of a typical villain, Mizuki talked too much and wasted his best opportunity. ... The situation became chaotic. Mizuki had deceived Naruto into stealing the Scroll of Seals, and Naruto had secretly learned the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu. Mizuki arrived and cruelly revealed Naruto¡¯s origins. Iruka showed up just in time to stop him. Sasuke, carrying Hinata, also arrived but remained hidden! Hinata, seeing Naruto truly standing there, felt a mix of excitement and heartache. "Naruto-kun..." "Shh!" Sasuke motioned for Hinata to keep quiet. "Don''t worry. As long as I''m here, Naruto will be fine." This time, Sasuke spoke even closer to Hinata. He was definitely doing it on purpose. But Hinata didn''t have time to care about that. Naruto was indeed in danger! Mizuki, despite being a villain, was still strong. He managed to defeat Iruka and, holding a giant shuriken, was about to kill Naruto. "Sasuke, please, you have to save Naruto!" Sasuke saw how much Hinata cared about Naruto. Even though he knew that in the original story, Hinata was destined to be Naruto¡¯s wife and it was normal for her to be concerned about him¡ª Sasuke still felt jealous! He no longer hid his feelings for Hinata. I¡¯m taking Hinata for myself! Even though, according to his plan, he had intended to wait until Hinata truly fell for him before claiming her first kiss¡ª Plans couldn¡¯t keep up with reality. Sasuke couldn''t stand how, even in his arms, Hinata was still so concerned about Naruto¡¯s life and death. "....." Hinata was stunned on the spot. And at such a deep and intimate moment. She completely forgot to resist. Only when Sasuke decided to let go did she snap out of it. "Sasuke¡ª" Hinata didn¡¯t slap Sasuke. She didn¡¯t even push him away! Her reaction wasn¡¯t extreme at all... "That¡¯s right, Hinata, I like you!" "Seeing you so worried about Naruto, I got jealous." Seeing Hinata''s response, Sasuke stated it directly. "I will definitely save Naruto." "And of course, I will also do my best to win your heart." With that, Sasuke left Hinata alone on the tree. Then, he made his move. ... "Uzumaki Naruto, you demon fox that everyone despises, go to hell!" As Mizuki caught up to Naruto and was about to strike the killing blow¡ª Suddenly, Uchiha Sasuke appeared, moving at an astonishing speed. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying glow. "Shit!" "That¡¯s the Sharingan..." The Sharingan was one of the most feared Kekkei Genkai in the ninja world. There was no time! The moment Mizuki saw Sasuke¡¯s eyes, he was already dead. That¡¯s right! In the original story, Naruto had beaten Mizuki to a pulp with the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu, but Mizuki had survived. Here¡ª Sasuke found Mizuki disgusting, so he simply killed him, ending everything in one swift move. ... Thanks to Sasuke''s intervention, Naruto never had a chance to unleash his full power. Similarly, in the original story, Iruka had been seriously wounded while protecting Naruto, nearly dying. The heartfelt words Iruka spoke to Naruto in the original never happened here. Instead, under the bright moonlight, Sasuke¡¯s figure stood strikingly dashing. "....." Naruto was completely dumbfounded. Sasuke walked up and patted Naruto¡¯s shoulder. "You idiot, I¡¯ve known for a long time that the Nine-Tailed Fox is sealed inside you." "But so what? That¡¯s pretty damn cool!" "The Nine-Tails once attacked Konoha, but now it¡¯s sealed within you, Naruto. That doesn¡¯t make you a monster." "Uzumaki Naruto, ever since you were a kid, you¡¯ve been Konoha¡¯s great hero!" "Chin up, my friend." Sasuke''s words instantly awakened Naruto, filling him with gratitude. Cool! A hero! The complete opposite of Mizuki¡¯s cruel words¡ªSasuke¡¯s words were reassuring and warm. Naruto burst into tears, overwhelmed by emotion! "Sasuke!" Unable to hold back, Naruto threw himself into Sasuke¡¯s arms like he was his savior. [Ding!] [System Notification:] [Congratulations! Check-in successful. You have obtained the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu that Naruto just learned.] A pleasant surprise. The forbidden technique Naruto had just learned was now Sasuke¡¯s, all because Naruto hugged him. He had acquired it effortlessly. "Alright, alright, stop crying." "Hand the Scroll of Seals over to Iruka and have a proper talk with him." Sasuke knew that Iruka must have a lot he wanted to say to Naruto right now. In the original story, Iruka had been the true savior of Naruto. But at this moment, Sasuke''s mind was focused on one thing¡ª Winning over Hinata as soon as possible! Chapter 26: Hinata and Sasuke Chapter 26: Hinata and Sasuke After Sasuke killed Mizuki and saved both Naruto and Iruka¡ª He became Naruto¡¯s savior and Iruka¡¯s hero. Iruka stared at Sasuke in shock, surprised at how quickly he had arrived. After all, the Hokage hadn¡¯t even informed any ninja below Ch¨±nin rank about Naruto¡¯s escape... So how did Sasuke find this place? And more importantly¡ª Sasuke was incredibly strong, instantly killing Mizuki! His strike was clean and decisive. "Sasuke, thanks to you." Iruka had no doubt about his judgment¡ªallowing Sasuke to graduate early during the Genin exam was completely justified. "Iruka, Naruto was deceived by that scum Mizuki. Take good care of him." Sasuke glanced at Naruto and the Scroll of Seals beside him. Earlier, Sasuke had deliberately touched the scroll. Yet, the system hadn¡¯t triggered a successful check-in. This confirmed that simply touching the Scroll of Seals wouldn¡¯t allow him to learn its forbidden techniques. It wasn¡¯t that simple. Fine, one should know when to be satisfied. Right now, Sasuke already had the Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan, J¨­nin-level chakra, Nine-Tails chakra, Byakugan, and the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu. That was more than enough! "I''m leaving." Without looking back, Sasuke turned and left. ...This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report. Iruka watched Sasuke¡¯s retreating figure, lost in thought. A genius of Sasuke¡¯s caliber wasn¡¯t unheard of in Konoha¡¯s history. Hatake Kakashi. Uchiha Itachi. These legendary ninjas had also become famous at a young age, achieving J¨­nin status early in life. "Naruto..." "Iruka-sensei." After Sasuke¡¯s words of encouragement, Naruto had calmed down. Iruka, still shaken by Mizuki¡¯s words, had made up his mind¡ªhe would take good care of Naruto. ... Not far away, in the trees. Sasuke is amazing! Mizuki, who had easily defeated both Naruto and Iruka, had been instantly slain by Sasuke. ¡®He¡¯s back¡­¡¯ Yes, Sasuke had returned¡ªfor the one he cherished most, Hinata. How could he bear to leave her behind? "Hinata, earlier, I¡­" Sasuke only said "I¡¯m sorry," but he didn¡¯t apologize outright. Because he didn¡¯t think he had done anything wrong! "Stop talking!" Hinata was exhausted, her gaze evasive. When Sasuke had left earlier, her heart had finally begun to settle¡ªbut now, it was racing all over again. Because Sasuke was just too damn handsome! Especially the way he looked at her¡ªit was even more intense than how he looked at Sakura. Feelings couldn¡¯t be faked. Sasuke truly liked Hinata¡­ "I''m tired. Take me home." If they lingered any longer, the night would pass, and dawn would arrive. Hinata was also worried that sneaking out in the middle of the night with an Uchiha would be discovered by her father. "Alright!" Sasuke had just killed a man, and he, too, needed some peace of mind. "Hinata, you smell so nice." Hinata blushed furiously. "D-Don¡¯t say things like that¡­" She couldn¡¯t handle this side of Sasuke. If not for the fact that Sasuke had just saved Naruto¡ªproving that he had never lied to her from the start¡ª Then, for what he did earlier¡­ for stealing her first kiss, she would never forgive him. Sasuke carefully observed Hinata, trying to gauge his position in her heart. Of course, Sasuke wasn¡¯t the type to overthink things. Before reincarnating into this world, he had been nothing but a timid otaku. Always cautious, always worrying about consequences before making any move. But now, he had traveled into this world. The Naruto anime was filled with beautiful women¡ªhe had to act first and secure his place. Hesitation was for weak men. If Hinata showed even the slightest hint of affection for him, Sasuke wouldn¡¯t hesitate to make her his. But! Hinata''s feelings for Sasuke were still too shallow. Naruto¡¯s presence in her heart was too significant. To push Naruto out¡ª To make Hinata love only Sasuke from now on¡ª That wouldn¡¯t be easy. ... Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Sasuke carried Hinata, dashing through the night. In no time, they reached the Hy¨±ga Clan compound. The Hy¨±ga Clan¡¯s security was tight, but that wasn¡¯t a problem for Sasuke. Activating the Byakugan, he scanned the area from a distance. After confirming the coast was clear, he swiftly brought Hinata back to her room. "¡­" Hinata¡¯s feet touched the ground, yet everything still felt surreal. Sneaking out with Sasuke in the dead of night¡­ Witnessing Naruto being hunted by Mizuki¡­ Sasuke getting jealous, confessing, and kissing her¡­ Then Sasuke instantly killing Mizuki, saving both Naruto and Iruka. And the way Sasuke had comforted Naruto with such powerful words¡ª It was truly moving. No matter what¡­ Sasuke, aside from being a shameless flirt, was almost perfect. But it was precisely because of that flirty side that Hinata found him hard to accept. Sasuke didn¡¯t want to leave empty-handed. Helping Naruto deal with Mizuki? That hadn¡¯t been Sasuke¡¯s real goal. His true goal¡ª Was winning over Hinata. So before leaving¡ª "This bastard¡­ he''s too much!" "In just one night, he not only stole my first kiss¡­" Hinata had tried to resist. But Sasuke could tell¡ªshe wasn¡¯t resisting completely. Inside, he was thrilled. Leaning in close, he whispered sweet nothings into her ear. "Hinata, you¡¯re so beautiful¡­ I really like you." "Sasuke-kun, you¡¯re too much!" "How could you do this to me¡­?" But Sasuke didn¡¯t apologize. Instead, he simply said: "Hinata, get some rest." "I won¡¯t bother you anymore for tonight. But don¡¯t worry¡ªfrom now on, I will always protect you." "No one can bully you¡ªexcept me." There was still plenty of time¡­ ... Sasuke left. Hinata, however, was left with a storm of emotions. Chapter 27: Fiancée Chapter 27: Fianc¨¦e He had only just crossed into the Naruto anime world as Sasuke. And yet, he already had Sakura Haruno, Ayame from Ichiraku Ramen, and Ino Yamanaka. ¡­ Tonight, little Hinata Hy¨±ga, who was supposed to be Naruto¡¯s wife in the original story¡ª At this young age, Sasuke had already made his move. He wasn¡¯t sure if Hinata had feelings for him yet. ¡­ So, Sasuke happily went home and slept. Hinata, on the other hand, barely slept at all. After crying silently to herself, she came to a realization¡ª She was no longer pure. She was unworthy of Naruto. She hated Sasuke! She wished she could kill him! Yet¡­ she couldn''t bring herself to truly hate him. Because Sasuke really seemed to like her¡ªand even when he took advantage of her, he didn¡¯t go too far. At the same time, he was much more handsome than Naruto¡­ and far more gentle. And Sasuke was incredibly strong! Even though Hinata was heartbroken¡­ She couldn''t deny that being in Sasuke¡¯s arms made her feel incredibly safe and secure. That was what troubled her tonight. Before this, her heart had belonged only to Naruto. Now, Sasuke had forcibly entered her heart as well. It was all too fast! She couldn¡¯t accept it. Reading on Amazon or a pirate site?

But with his powerful physique, he still felt like he needed a beautiful girl by his side. Plus, after saving Naruto, he had signed in and obtained the Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu. So before sleeping, why not use Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu to check on his girls? Sasuke formed a seal with his hands. "Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!" The next moment, dozens of shadow clones appeared. "As expected of a forbidden technique." And that was Sasuke holding back¡ªif he went all out, he could probably create hundreds. "Go!" The clones dispersed instantly. They went to check on Sakura, Ino, Ayame, Hinata, and even Naruto. Sakura and Ino were already asleep. Ayame too. ¡­ Hinata, however, was awake, lost in thought. "Poor Hinata." "Once she fully accepts me¡­ she won¡¯t feel so conflicted anymore." After all, making Hinata completely give up on Naruto and become Sasuke¡¯s woman was going to take time. ¡­ As for Naruto¡ªsince he had stolen the Scroll of Seals under Mizuki¡¯s deception, The Third Hokage only scolded him a little before letting him go home. Iruka had spoken with Naruto for a long time, resolving much of their emotional baggage. Next was the Hokage¡¯s meeting. Since Mizuki had been killed instantly by Sasuke¡­ Konoha¡¯s high-ranking officials were now discussing Sasuke¡¯s power and potential. "So, I¡¯ve caught the attention of Konoha¡¯s higher-ups?" "Not sure if that¡¯s a good thing or a bad thing!" But whatever. With Sasuke¡¯s invincible strength, no problem was too big to handle. ¡­ After gathering enough intel, Sasuke dismissed his clones. Shadow Clones consumed too much chakra¡ªhe had used them just for reconnaissance, so there was no need to keep them up. However, just as he was about to dismiss the last of them¡ª He stumbled upon a surprising discovery. Mizuki had a fianc¨¦e. Tsubaki. Like Ayame from Ichiraku Ramen, she was a rarely noticed character in the original story. Because in the anime, Tsubaki barely had any screen time. But here, in this altered world where Sasuke was the protagonist¡ª This Tsubaki, a stunning beauty, now stood before him, looking delicate and pitiful. "That bastard Mizuki¡­ had such a beautiful fianc¨¦e, and instead of treasuring her, he wasted his time plotting to make Naruto steal the Scroll of Seals?" In the original story, Mizuki survived Naruto¡¯s beating¡ª So Tsubaki at least had some hope. But here¡ª Sasuke had found Mizuki disgusting and had simply killed him outright. He hadn''t expected Mizuki to leave behind such a treasure¡­ Tsubaki, Mizuki¡¯s fianc¨¦e, was clearly still untouched. "If I don¡¯t take her, wouldn¡¯t that be a waste?" "Mizuki, you can rest in peace now!" "I¡¯ll make sure to take¡­ I mean, take good care of your fianc¨¦e!" A devilish smirk spread across Sasuke¡¯s lips. Since he had come to the Naruto world, there was no way he would let any beautiful woman slip through his fingers. So, he immediately withdrew all his clones. To Sasuke, Shadow Clones were meant for combat and intelligence gathering¡ª Not for wasting chakra. ¡­ With his full power restored, Sasuke slipped into the night, heading toward Tsubaki¡¯s home. Tsubaki had already realized Mizuki¡¯s fate. When she found out Mizuki had tricked Naruto into stealing the Scroll of Seals, she knew it was over. "Mizuki¡­ were you planning to become a rogue ninja?" And when she later heard that Mizuki was dead¡ª "¡­.." Her heart turned to ash. She and Mizuki had never been intimate, but she had already accepted the idea of being his wife. Now, before their story could even begin¡ª It had already ended. "Who¡¯s there?" Even in her sorrow, Tsubaki sensed someone following her. It was Sasuke. And he had let her notice him on purpose. Under the moonlight, Sasuke¡¯s sharp features looked breathtakingly handsome. But his eyes and smirk carried a mischievous danger. He did not look like a good person. At the same time, Sasuke carefully studied Tsubaki. As expected¡ªshe was a beauty. "I¡¯m the one who killed your fianc¨¦." Sasuke deliberately provoked her, wanting to break her psychological defenses quickly. "Impossible!" Tsubaki refused to believe it. "You¡¯re just a kid¡ªbarely old enough to graduate from the Academy! How could you have killed Mizuki¡­?" Suddenly, a realization struck her. Mizuki had betrayed Konoha. He deserved to die. But as his fianc¨¦e, she at least wanted to know how he had been killed. Although many ninjas refused to talk, she had overheard whispers¡ª That Mizuki had been slain by a newly graduated Genin¡­ "Could it be you¡ªUchiha Sasuke?!" At that moment, Tsubaki¡¯s heart shattered again. She bit her lip so hard it nearly bled. She wanted revenge¡ªbut deep down, she knew. Sasuke had done nothing wrong. "You¡­ why are you here?" "If you came to investigate Mizuki¡¯s betrayal, then please leave," Tsubaki said bitterly. "Because I know nothing." Sasuke was surprised. Mizuki¡¯s fianc¨¦e was actually quite reasonable. She hadn¡¯t attacked him or screamed for revenge. "You don¡¯t want to kill me?" Sasuke asked with a smirk. Chapter 28: Female Ninja Chapter 28: Female Ninja Tsubaki, the kunoichi, looked at Sasuke with a puzzled expression. She couldn''t quite understand. This young-looking Sasuke¡ªwhat exactly was he up to? At this moment, Tsubaki could never have imagined that Sasuke¡¯s target was actually her! Domineering and ruthless, Sasuke had just killed her fianc¨¦ moments ago. ... Hearing Sasuke¡¯s provocation, Tsubaki¡¯s expression turned murderous. "Of course, I want to kill you!" "But... I can¡¯t." Her fianc¨¦, Mizuki, had brought this upon himself. She couldn¡¯t let hatred drive her to kill Sasuke. Seeing her reaction, Sasuke chuckled. He always adjusted his approach based on the person he was dealing with. Whether it was Sakura, Ino, Ayame, or Hinata, he had different methods for each. "Right now, I¡¯m giving you a fair chance to kill me openly." A smirk played on Sasuke¡¯s lips. Ever since he had transmigrated into the Naruto anime world, he had been focused on seducing women. But killing Mizuki had stirred something within him. Hinata, a rare beauty, deserved careful handling. But a kunoichi like Tsubaki, Mizuki¡¯s fianc¨¦e¡ªSasuke felt that taking her was already a favor to her. After all, who was Sasuke? And who was she? ... Sasuke was just that arrogant! He was like an emperor. The women he set his eyes on should feel lucky. After all, without Sasuke, a kunoichi like Tsubaki would never encounter a man better than him in her lifetime. Accepting her into his harem meant her status would naturally be lower than Sakura and Ino¡¯s, even lower than Ayame¡¯s, the daughter of the Ichiraku Ramen owner. Wherever there were people, there was hierarchy.The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. Where there were many people, there would inevitably be rankings! Even within a harem of three thousand beauties, equality was impossible. As of now, Sasuke had ranked his harem: Hinata was in the first tier, with Sakura and Ino in the second tier. Ayame and Tsubaki naturally belonged to the third tier. ... Sasuke''s words and intentions were peculiar. Under the bright moonlight, Tsubaki questioned, "What exactly do you want?" Sasuke smirked. "I pity you, so I¡¯m giving you a chance to kill me." "A fair duel. If you manage to kill me, consider your revenge complete¡ªand I¡¯ll have no regrets." "What do you think?" Someone actively delivering themselves to be killed? Sasuke¡¯s proposal left Tsubaki utterly baffled. "You think I''d believe you''re that kind?" She speculated, "Or perhaps, after killing my fianc¨¦ Mizuki tonight, you feel guilty?" Sasuke laughed. "You don¡¯t need to worry about my reasons." "Of course, if you lose, you must agree to one condition of mine." As expected! This Sasuke had ulterior motives. Tsubaki asked, "What condition?" Sasuke naturally wouldn¡¯t reveal it upfront. "I¡¯ll tell you once you lose!" "Hmph!" In the end, hatred clouded Tsubaki¡¯s judgment. She failed to consider that even though Sasuke was young, he had managed to kill Mizuki. Why would he willingly offer a fair duel and let her kill him? Of course! The village of Konoha wasn¡¯t without fools like that. For example, Hatake Kakashi¡¯s father, the famed "White Fang of Konoha," whose reputation rivaled that of the "Legendary Sannin." Yet, such a powerful figure chose to abandon a mission to save his comrades... In the end, the torment of gossip and slander drove him to suicide! To Tsubaki, perhaps Sasuke was simply too young, and after accidentally killing Mizuki for the first time... even though Mizuki was a rogue ninja of Konoha, he had still been a teacher at the Ninja Academy. Thus, Sasuke was now feeling guilty and had come to Mizuki¡¯s fianc¨¦e, Tsubaki, to offer a fair duel. Perhaps he just wanted to alleviate his guilt. Of course, this absurd reasoning was merely Tsubaki¡¯s own wishful thinking. She didn¡¯t truly understand Sasuke! Nor did she know how mercilessly he had killed her fianc¨¦ Mizuki... She could only speculate based on what she saw. ... So, on one hand, Tsubaki sought revenge for her fianc¨¦. On the other, she wanted to help Sasuke overcome his guilt! Thus, she nodded in agreement. "You¡¯re the one seeking death¡ªdon¡¯t blame me." She spoke harshly, but she had no intention of actually killing Sasuke. Even if he had killed her fianc¨¦, Sasuke hadn¡¯t done anything wrong. The one in the wrong was Mizuki... But! Sasuke had still killed her fianc¨¦, so Tsubaki planned to simply stab him once in the upcoming fight, avoiding any vital spots... Wounding Sasuke but not killing him. That way, she could avenge Mizuki while also easing Sasuke¡¯s guilt! ... If Sasuke knew what was going on in Tsubaki¡¯s mind, he would probably laugh himself to death. He had killed Mizuki without a shred of guilt. He was here solely to claim Tsubaki, fair and square. He didn¡¯t even have the patience he had for Hinata when it came to a kunoichi like her. He would take her directly and decisively! ... Sasuke grinned. "Go ahead and attack!" "Otherwise, you won¡¯t even get the chance to showcase your jutsu!" Tsubaki was infuriated by Sasuke¡¯s arrogance. "When you fall beneath my blade, I hope you can keep running that mouth of yours!" Sasuke teased, "Oh, I¡¯m not just hard with my words." The rather naive Tsubaki didn¡¯t catch the hidden meaning behind Sasuke¡¯s words. She had no intention of waiting any longer and swiftly unsheathed her ninja blade, launching a taijutsu assault. Ninjas used various weapons, with most fast-moving assassin-type ninjas favoring kunai¡ªsmall, convenient, and effective in special combat scenarios. However, combat-oriented ninjas wielded long ninja swords like samurai, maximizing their destructive power. Tsubaki was confident in her skills. But the moment she closed in on Sasuke, she was instantly stunned. "So fast!" Indeed, Sasuke¡¯s taijutsu was clearly superior to hers. Effortlessly dodging several of her attacks, Sasuke lazily scratched his ear and feigned boredom. "Tsubaki, is this really all you¡¯ve got in taijutsu?" "You look pretty weak." "Damn you!" Tsubaki seethed and immediately launched a ninjutsu attack. But her ninjutsu was too basic¡ªshe couldn¡¯t even graze Sasuke¡¯s clothes. "......" It was only at this moment that Tsubaki finally woke up to reality. This Sasuke was absurdly strong! His strength completely overwhelmed her. From beginning to end... This Sasuke had never come to atone out of guilt for killing Mizuki. Rather... "Uchiha Sasuke, are you here just to humiliate me?" Outmatched and panting, Tsubaki finally gave up attacking. Sasuke¡¯s face was filled with amusement. "Congratulations, you got the right answer." "If I wasn¡¯t worried about bruising your fair, delicate skin, I would¡¯ve already knocked you down." "Tsubaki, do you remember our agreement?" "If you lost, you¡¯d owe me one condition!" Tsubaki¡¯s heart dropped. She had been tricked! "Damn you, Sasuke! What exactly do you want?!" At last, she saw Sasuke¡¯s true nature¡ªhe was nothing like the handsome, harmless man he appeared to be. Chapter 29: Tsubaki, the Kunoichi Chapter 29: Tsubaki, the Kunoichi ''Damn that Sasuke!'' ''How could he treat her like this?'' "Mizuki is dead, and as his fianc¨¦e, you must feel so pitiful." "Of course, I have to take care of you in his place!" Sasuke shamelessly declared. "Sasuke, you despicable bastard, what do you want?" Tsubaki was finally afraid! "A bet is a bet, Tsubaki. Just now, you agreed¡ªif you lost, you''d fulfill one condition for me." ¡­ "Tsubaki, you lost. How can you blame me for that?" Seeing that Sasuke still had some boundaries, Tsubaki immediately pleaded, "Let me go!" "Maybe, just maybe, I could forgive you¡­" Sasuke shook his head. "No, you''re too beautiful. And now, your fianc¨¦ Mizuki¡ªhe was killed by me." "From now on, you have no one to rely on. I want to take care of you!" Tsubaki''s face turned red, but it was from anger. "Uchiha Sasuke, you clearly just want to take me for yourself! How can you be so shameless?" Sasuke chuckled. "Tsubaki, take a good look." "I''m more handsome than Mizuki, stronger than him, and besides, you know well¡ªMizuki was a traitor to Konoha. Killing him was only natural." "I admit, I was a little impatient just now and hurt you. I apologize."Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon. "But that doesn''t mean I''m letting you go!" Tsubaki actually had quite a backbone. She declared, "Then I''ll just die!" "I will never let you¡ª" Sasuke sighed. "If you say that, then I''m truly left with no choice." "First of all, you made a promise, and now you''re breaking it." "Tsubaki, whether or not I tricked you..." Sasuke spoke smoothly, weaving his words cleverly. "As a kunoichi, shouldn''t you at least keep your word?" "I can''t do it! Just kill me already!" "Besides, don''t forget¡ªmy Uchiha clan is most skilled in genjutsu. With just a single illusion, I could make you willingly throw yourself into my arms." "But I haven''t used such underhanded tricks." "Although this so-called ''fair duel'' had a bit of trickery on my part." Sasuke tapped Tsubaki¡¯s forehead with his finger. "If you weren¡¯t so foolish, how could you have been deceived so easily?" He used both intimidation and persuasion! Tsubaki hadn''t even considered that Sasuke might have even more despicable methods. Like controlling her completely through genjutsu and turning her into a puppet! "Sasuke, even if you haven¡¯t used worse means against me, your methods are still dishonorable." "I, Sasuke, am a genius, an exceptional individual, a dragon among men." "The fact that I¡¯m even interested in you is your blessing." So domineering! So arrogant! Even though Tsubaki wanted to curse him, she had to admit¡ªsuch a man was truly outstanding. And she herself was not that remarkable as a kunoichi. If this were a normal relationship, Sasuke wouldn¡¯t even consider her. ¡­ Sasuke seemed to lose his patience. "Now, I¡¯ll give you two choices." "1. Be controlled by my genjutsu and become a puppet." "From then on, whether you live or die, I won¡¯t care." "2. Set aside your ridiculous pride and submit to me." "I''ll give you some time to adjust... and also allow you to get to know me, Sasuke." "Becoming my woman is at least ten thousand times better than being Mizuki¡¯s wife." Though he gave two options, in reality, there was no choice at all. If Tsubaki refused to cooperate, she would be put under genjutsu and turned into a puppet. Then, she would live a life worse than death. Just now, she had suppressed her emotions with anger. "Sasuke!" "If you truly want to have me while I''m still conscious, give me some time." Sasuke smiled. "Alright!" --- Morning arrived. Under the sunlight, Sasuke, for once, showed a rare gentleness. Tsubaki felt uneasy. "What else do you want?" "Sasuke, don¡¯t think that just because you treat me like this, I won¡¯t hate you." Sasuke chuckled. "Tsubaki, carry that hatred and live well." "From now on, I''ll take care of all your needs¡ªfood, clothing, shelter, and more." "I''ll take you to get some new clothes and furniture." But he was also worried that, as a kunoichi, Tsubaki might not be able to cope with it all. Right now, she was fragile. As long as her future life was better than before, Sasuke wouldn¡¯t feel guilty. ¡­ To prevent her from committing suicide, Sasuke even implanted a high-level genjutsu in her mind. If she ever had thoughts of ending her life, the genjutsu would automatically hypnotize her. In short, Tsubaki couldn''t die because of him. ¡­ They visited various shops in Konoha¡ªfurniture stores, clothing stores, even jewelry shops, vegetable markets, and more. Sasuke took Tsubaki shopping, dressing her up in a completely new way. "¡­" Sasuke smirked. "Even if you''re my slave, I will still fulfill my duty as your master." "Relax, Tsubaki. Following me will only make your life better, not worse." ¡­ "You devil!" ¡­ But Tsubaki had no way to resist. Whether he was overbearing or gentle, Sasuke had already taken everything from her. She might never experience a normal romance like Sakura, Ino, or Hinata. But at least, just as Sasuke had said¡ªher reason for living from now on would be him. As for her fianc¨¦, Mizuki, who was killed by Sasuke, he had completely disappeared from her mind. ¡­ "Tsubaki, get some rest." "I''ll come find you tonight¡­" Chapter 30: Hokage, Wife Chapter 30: Hokage, Wife The Hokage of Konoha, the Third Hokage himself, personally came to find Sasuke. "¡­" Sasuke was a little nervous. After all, this was the Hokage of Konoha. ¡®Did Tsubaki report me?¡¯ If the kunoichi Tsubaki had reported Sasuke, there was no way he could deny it. "Sasuke, do you have some time?" "Let''s talk..." The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had a kindly expression and didn''t seem to be here to hold Sasuke accountable. This meant that the old man wasn¡¯t aware of what Sasuke had done last night. "Sure!" Sasuke didn''t refuse. On a rooftop, the Third Hokage stood with his hands behind his back. This old man had dedicated his entire life to Konoha. Now, the Third Hokage wasn¡¯t even taller than Sasuke! "Sasuke, what do you think about the position of [Hokage] in Konoha?" The Third Hokage was clearly implying something. Perhaps it had to do with Sasuke showcasing his strength last night by killing the Ch¨±nin, Mizuki. Sasuke answered honestly, "The Hokage is like the village chief, the one who leads the village to prosperity." The Third Hokage looked at Sasuke. "That''s an interesting explanation. Then, do you want to become Hokage in the future?" Sasuke answered bluntly, "Not interested!" "Being Hokage is too exhausting and too dull." "Freedom is my pursuit!" Sasuke knew that the Third Hokage was testing him. The Uchiha clan¡¯s identity was too special¡ªthey could never become Hokage in Konoha.Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings. Of course, Sasuke genuinely had no interest in the Hokage position. In the original story, after Uzumaki Naruto became Hokage, he was exhausted every day like a dog. The Third Hokage carefully observed Sasuke¡¯s expression and saw that he wasn¡¯t lying. He smiled and said, "I''ve heard that not only has your strength skyrocketed, but even your personality has changed significantly." "At the Ninja Academy, you even publicly declared in front of all your classmates that both Sakura and Ino are your girlfriends?" Seeing that the Third Hokage had brought up his personal life, Sasuke grinned. "A man who isn¡¯t romantic has wasted his youth!" "I like Sakura, and I like Ino too. To ensure they both find happiness, I have no choice but to reluctantly become their shared boyfriend." The Third Hokage didn¡¯t expect Sasuke to be so direct. He chuckled helplessly, "You brat." "Although it''s not unheard of for a man to have multiple wives, in Konoha, most people still follow monogamy." Sasuke retorted bluntly, "That¡¯s just because they don¡¯t have the ability." "Even in a monogamous world, many people have lovers, mistresses, and secret affairs. That¡¯s just as disgraceful." Sasuke confidently declared, "But I¡¯m different. I do it openly and honorably." The Third Hokage was truly shocked. He never expected that Sasuke, who had once been obsessed with revenge, had now become so... flamboyant. When it came to being Hokage, he had no interest at all! But when it came to women, he was more enthusiastic than anyone! "What an ''honorable'' approach..." The Third Hokage sighed. "Even if you have the ability to keep Sakura and Ino from fighting over you." "But what about their parents? Can you handle them?" "If they come to me to complain about their daughters, as the Hokage of Konoha, I will still have to intervene." Although the Third Hokage didn¡¯t like to meddle in other people¡¯s family affairs¡­ Sasuke was just too much. He not only felt no shame but was actually proud of it! This was excessive! Sasuke laughed. "Don¡¯t worry, Third Hokage. Since I can handle Sakura and Ino, I can naturally handle their parents too." The Third Hokage looked at Sasuke in surprise. "You brat, just how many tricks do you have up your sleeve?" Sasuke looked at the Third Hokage, and a thought suddenly crossed his mind. He reached out his hand. "Third Hokage, why don¡¯t you take a look for yourself?" This little brat actually took the initiative to let him probe? ¡®Is he really this open and straightforward?¡¯ In the Third Hokage¡¯s eyes, Sasuke was just a kid. Who would be on guard against a child? But in just the past two days, the rumors about Sasuke had been overwhelming. One move to kill Mizuki. Publicly embracing both Sakura and Ino at the Ninja Academy. Even though Sasuke was still a kid, the Third Hokage had no choice but to ask questions. "Alright then, I¡¯ll test your strength a little." The Third Hokage reached out his aged hand and touched Sasuke¡¯s palm, intending to sense his chakra reserves. [Ding-dong!] Hearing the pleasant chime of the [Invincible Sign-in System], Sasuke immediately revealed a victorious smirk. This was the Hokage! Signing in on him¡ªhow much power would he gain?! [Congratulations on signing in with the Hokage. You have obtained Fire Release Ninjutsu.] [Congratulations on signing in with the Hokage. You have obtained Earth Release Ninjutsu.] [Congratulations on signing in with the Hokage. You have obtained Lightning Release Ninjutsu.] [Congratulations on signing in with the Hokage. You have obtained Water Release Ninjutsu.] [Congratulations on signing in with the Hokage. You have obtained Wind Release Ninjutsu.] [Congratulations on signing in with the Hokage. You have obtained Sealing Jutsu.] The Third Hokage was known as the "Professor of Ninjutsu." His three disciples were none other than the Legendary Sannin of Konoha! Such a highly respected figure¡­ And in that brief moment of contact, Sasuke had successfully signed in and gained most of the Third Hokage¡¯s abilities. There were too many types of ninjutsu to list, so they were categorized simply: Fire Release, Wind Release, Water Release, Earth Release, Lightning Release, and so on. ¡­ This was incredible! In just an instant, Sasuke had acquired the power of the [Professor of Ninjutsu]. On top of that, with the Nine-Tails¡¯ chakra and his Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan¡­ Sasuke''s current strength was already on par with the Third Hokage! ¡­ "Hm?" Just as the Third Hokage had begun to sense that Sasuke¡¯s chakra reserves had reached J¨­nin level¡­ He immediately withdrew his hand. "Third Hokage, I suddenly feel that it¡¯s better to keep some things private." "Rest assured, I have no interest in being Hokage or revenge." "I will also help protect Konoha!" "But now that I¡¯ve awakened, I love beautiful women¡ªjust like your student, Jiraiya..." Sasuke grinned mischievously. "So, Third Hokage, even if you don¡¯t support me, please don¡¯t oppose me either." "Oh, by the way, dating women costs money. So, all the wealth left behind by the Uchiha clan after their massacre¡ªplease hand it all over to me!" Chapter 31: Women Chapter 31: Women "¡­" The Third Hokage was dumbfounded. He never expected Sasuke to be so confident. The massacre of the Uchiha clan was a scar in the hearts of both Sasuke and many high-ranking officials of Konoha. Unless absolutely necessary, no one was willing to bring it up. But now, Sasuke, just for the sake of picking up girls, wanted the Hokage to hand over all the Uchiha clan¡¯s inheritance to him. "How is that possible?" The total wealth of the Uchiha clan back then was no small sum. Sasuke knew that getting his hands on that money wouldn¡¯t be easy. But it was still worth putting up a front. This morning, taking Tsubaki shopping had already cost him quite a bit. If he wanted to continue living a luxurious life, he would need even more money. "Third Hokage, I just want to reclaim the inheritance of my Uchiha clan¡ªis that not allowed?" Sasuke sighed. "If I can¡¯t get the inheritance, then I, Uchiha Sasuke, will have to find my own way to make money." As he spoke, Sasuke deliberately revealed his Sharingan. The two-tomoe Sharingan? Too low-class. The three-tomoe Sharingan? Still not enough. He directly activated the Mangeky¨­ Sharingan. And it worked! When Sasuke revealed his Mangeky¨­ Sharingan in front of the Third Hokage, he only let it flash for a moment before deliberately reverting to normal. But in that instant¡ª The Third Hokage''s entire body trembled. His old, murky eyes suddenly radiated with a piercing light. "How is this possible?!" "Mangeky¨­ Sharingan¡ª" The Third Hokage was so shaken that he instinctively reached out, trying to grab Sasuke and question him. However, Sasuke deliberately acted disappointed in the Hokage and took a step back.If you discover this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. And just that one step¡ª Sasuke¡¯s movement once again shocked the Third Hokage. Even if the old man wasn¡¯t trying to ambush him, with his strength, catching a freshly graduated Genin should have been effortless. But¡ª He couldn¡¯t catch Sasuke! In other words, this young Sasuke standing before him had power not inferior to his own as Hokage. Terrifying! The Uchiha clan¡¯s last descendant, Sasuke, was actually this terrifying?! In the original story, Sasuke¡¯s early growth was utterly disappointing¡ªa disgrace to the Uchiha name. But this Sasuke, the one who had crossed over into this world? He had started with an explosive advantage! Revealing just a small part of his strength was enough to leave the Third Hokage utterly stunned. "Sasuke, tell me¡ªhow strong are you, really?" "How did you awaken the Mangeky¨­ Sharingan?" The Uchiha clan had once produced legendary ninjas like Uchiha Madara. And then there was Uchiha Itachi, the man who had single-handedly wiped out the Uchiha clan. Especially Itachi¡ªthe Third Hokage understood his strength very well. He was an absolute genius among geniuses! But even Itachi, compared to the Sasuke in front of him, seemed far inferior. Especially since this Sasuke was even better at hiding his strength. By the time he had grown so powerful, only now was the Third Hokage realizing it. Sasuke looked up and sighed. "Third Hokage, you won¡¯t even give me my Uchiha inheritance. So why should I tell you my true power?" "Or do you really think I, Uchiha Sasuke, am someone you can manipulate at will?" Shock! Unbelievable! Once again, Sasuke played his strategy of both threat and persuasion. He couldn¡¯t just show weakness¡ªotherwise, the Third Hokage would never truly respect him. Sasuke needed to show his dominance. He was not that idiot Uchiha Itachi who had willingly helped Konoha slaughter his own clan. Of course, as a transmigrator, Sasuke didn''t really have any deep emotional attachment to the Uchiha clan. He was free, uninhibited, and did whatever he pleased. No one could control him! ¡­ "Sasuke, your mindset is very dangerous¡­" For the first time, the Third Hokage spoke to Sasuke in an equal tone. "Why are you hiding your strength?" Sasuke countered, "Am I hiding my strength?" "Didn¡¯t I just reveal a bit of it to you?" Just a bit?! The Third Hokage was shocked yet again! Terrifying. So this Sasuke wasn''t comparable to Itachi. He was comparable to Uchiha Madara himself! But Sasuke didn¡¯t want to push things too far. He continued explaining, "I¡¯ll say it again¡ªI have no interest in revenge or becoming Hokage." "I only love beautiful women and freedom." "I feel like I have a lot in common with one of the Sannin, Jiraiya. The only difference is¡­" "First, I¡¯m better looking than Jiraiya, and I¡¯m stronger than him too." "Second, unlike him, I actually take responsibility. I take care of my women. I don¡¯t just waste my time chasing skirts like he does." Hearing this, the Third Hokage didn''t even know how to respond. He was completely speechless. Sasuke, at such a young age, had already awakened the Mangeky¨­ Sharingan, and his body contained J¨­nin-level chakra. From the way he spoke with such confidence, he clearly had even more hidden strength. Even when talking about Jiraiya, he spoke so casually, without the slightest reverence. To think that even elite J¨­nin like Hatake Kakashi would respectfully refer to Jiraiya as "senpai". "Sasuke!" "I can agree to finding a way to return some of the Uchiha clan¡¯s inheritance to you." "But you must promise¡ª" "You cannot use your power to harm the village¡­" The Third Hokage feared that Sasuke would become a rogue ninja. With his strength and arrogance, he could very well become the second coming of Uchiha Madara! Sasuke chuckled. "It¡¯s mutual." "If Konoha treats me well, I will naturally protect the village." "Whether I become a Jiraiya, or a traitor like Orochimaru, depends entirely on how the village treats me." And he had the power to say that. To demonstrate his ability, he formed hand seals¡ª "Fire Release!" "Water Release!" "Lightning Release!" "Wind Release!" "Earth Release!" One after another, multiple elemental ninjutsu burst forth from his hands. At this moment, Sasuke was like a second Third Hokage. A replica of the Professor of Ninjutsu! "¡­" The Third Hokage was shocked beyond words. "Is this really just a teenage Sasuke?!" "Terrifying!" This was a monster! Even the legendary Uchiha Madara had probably not been this powerful at such a young age. "Sasuke¡­" After witnessing everything, the Third Hokage suddenly felt his mouth go dry. "Your strength is already beyond that of an elite J¨­nin¡­" Sasuke smirked. "I know." "But I like to keep a low profile. No need to make a big fuss about it." "You know it, I know it, heaven and earth know it¡ªthat¡¯s enough." Grinning like an old buddy, Sasuke casually patted the Third Hokage on the shoulder. "This is just my way of showing appreciation, since you agreed to return the Uchiha inheritance to me." "Otherwise, I wouldn¡¯t even bother letting you see my strength." At this moment, the Third Hokage''s entire worldview had collapsed. No wonder! No wonder Sasuke had the guts to embrace both Sakura and Ino in front of the entire class. His power far exceeded what any normal ninja could even imagine. "Sasuke!" The Third Hokage suddenly made a firm decision. "I''ve decided¡ªI support you in chasing women!" "In fact, you should marry a dozen or even twenty wives to spread your bloodline for the future of Konoha!" With talent like this, Sasuke was one of a kind! Chapter 32: Uchiha - Wives Chapter 32: Uchiha - Wives The Third Hokage''s attitude took a complete 180-degree turn, which was somewhat unexpected for Sasuke. However, seeing the eagerness in the Third Hokage¡¯s eyes, Sasuke quickly understood the reason behind it! If Sasuke were just an ordinary male ninja, monopolizing too many beautiful women in Konoha by himself would indeed seem wasteful. But! After witnessing Sasuke¡¯s unparalleled, one-of-a-kind talent, the Third Hokage realized that if Sasuke¡¯s powerful genes could be perfectly passed down, they could give rise to an incredibly strong clan. Sasuke alone could surpass the entire previous Uchiha clan. The Uchiha massacre of the past had always been something the Third Hokage opposed. However, at the time, the conflict between the Uchiha clan and Konoha had become irreconcilable. Coupled with the ruthlessness of Shimura Danzo, the Uchiha clan¡¯s rebellion was eliminated at the root, but Konoha also lost the power of the Uchiha clan. As a result, Konoha¡¯s overall strength had significantly declined. If Sasuke alone married dozens of wives and had hundreds of children, wouldn¡¯t the Uchiha clan be instantly revived? And if this new Uchiha clan could overcome the curse of the Sharingan, then the Hyuga clan would be no match. The dominant clan in Konoha would still be the Uchiha! Thus, the Third Hokage supported Sasuke in building a grand harem to restore the Uchiha clan, but under one condition. "Sasuke, can you break the Uchiha clan¡¯s curse?" Sasuke did not give an absolute answer. "I don¡¯t know about other Uchiha, but for me, my Mangekyou Sharingan evolved without the need to kill loved ones or experience emotional trauma." This was a guarantee! The Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, had always harbored great hostility toward the Uchiha clan.Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. The Sharingan¡¯s evolution was too extreme! It required intense emotional stimulation, leading many Uchiha ninjas to kill their own children, wives, friends, and family members in pursuit of power. Using this method, they awakened the terrifying abilities of the Mangekyou Sharingan. This is why most Uchiha were considered madmen. It was only natural that the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, refused to entrust Konoha to such a clan. Even if their power was strong enough to dominate the entire ninja world! Back then, the Third Hokage had felt guilty for being unable to stop the Uchiha massacre. Now, if he could help Sasuke rebuild the Uchiha clan before he died and ensure that this would be a new and improved Uchiha clan, he would finally feel at peace. The Third Hokage trusted Sasuke not only because of his extraordinary talent¡ªgreater than even Uchiha Madara and the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama¡ªbut also because he had seen too much in his long life. Especially when it came to his three disciples! Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Orochimaru. Orochimaru wanted too much, and the Third Hokage could not satisfy him. The student he had once trusted and valued most had now become an S-rank rogue ninja of Konoha! This was a great sorrow in the Third Hokage¡¯s heart. Tsunade was no different. Despite her immense medical ninja talent, her heart was too fragile. After losing a few loved ones, she crumbled and left Konoha, never returning for years. Three disciples! Now, only the perverted, carefree Jiraiya remained in service to Konoha. That¡¯s right! Orochimaru, the smartest, became a traitor. Tsunade, the most talented, ran away and hadn¡¯t returned for years. Only Jiraiya, despite his many flaws, had remained loyal to Konoha. From start to finish, Jiraiya had never betrayed Konoha. Despite his laziness and debauchery, he had never abandoned the village. He had done far too much for Konoha, all by himself! Sasuke admitted that he was also someone like Jiraiya. He loved beautiful women. So let him have them! But Sasuke was even more responsible than Jiraiya¡ªhe would take care of his family. As long as Konoha had women he liked, and as long as nothing catastrophic happened, Sasuke would be like Jiraiya. Even if Konoha¡¯s rules didn¡¯t apply to him, whenever the village was in danger, Sasuke would be there to protect it. So, as long as Sasuke¡¯s offspring could inherit his perfect qualities, the Third Hokage would fully support reviving the Uchiha clan. Sasuke hadn¡¯t expected this outcome. His initial conversation with the Third Hokage had been about dealing with Mizuki¡¯s death from the previous night. Instead, it turned into the Hokage fully supporting his plans to build a harem. Sasuke even felt a little embarrassed. "Building a harem¡ª*cough* I mean, reviving the Uchiha clan¡ªshould be done discreetly." "I prefer to keep a low profile." If the Third Hokage publicly announced a selection of brides for Sasuke, like an emperor choosing concubines, it would be meaningless. The Third Hokage chuckled. "I understand." "Sasuke, from now on, pursue women boldly and without hesitation." "If any parents come to me to complain, I will tell them that restoring the Uchiha clan is Konoha¡¯s top-priority S-rank mission." Turning womanizing and harem-building into the mission of reviving the Uchiha clan had made Sasuke¡¯s ambitions completely legitimate. "Not bad, old man." "A pleasure doing business with you!" Sasuke was delighted. Not only did he secure a large sum of money for his romantic escapades, but he also gained the Hokage¡¯s approval. From now on, whenever Sasuke pursued a woman, it would be under the guise of reviving the Uchiha clan. The old Uchiha bloodline had been wiped out due to their flawed genetics. Now, starting with Sasuke, he would improve the lineage and rebuild the clan. Even if he had a hundred children, the Third Hokage would still think it wasn¡¯t enough! The Uchiha clan¡¯s wealth had long been frozen, with no one in Konoha daring to touch it. Now, with a portion of it given to Sasuke, he had more than enough to support a dozen wives. With his newfound wealth, Sasuke went straight to find Sakura and Ino. Just as he had expected, even though Sakura had been affected by his Sharingan genjutsu, she still struggled with the idea of sharing him with Ino. She resisted the thought deeply. If Ino weren¡¯t involved, Sakura would have rushed to Sasuke first thing in the morning, brimming with excitement. But today, she didn¡¯t. She was alone at home, tossing and turning, lost in thought. Sakura couldn¡¯t understand¡ªno matter how much she liked Sasuke, how could she accept sharing him with Ino? ''I need to calm down. This isn¡¯t me.'' However, now that Sasuke had reached an agreement with the Third Hokage, his confidence had soared. Chapter 33: Sakura and Ino Chapter 33: Sakura and Ino Sakura held some resentment toward Sasuke. "Sasuke, I was too tired last night and went to bed early." She was Sasuke¡¯s first girlfriend after he crossed into the Naruto anime world, and there were a lot of emotions involved. Sasuke mischievously whispered in Sakura¡¯s ear, "Did you feel something was off when your husband wasn¡¯t by your side?" Yet, she had no way to refuse Sasuke¡¯s demands. "Sasuke, stop talking nonsense." "Tell me, Sasuke, did you cast some kind of spell on me?" Sakura was indeed smart. However, Sasuke would never admit to using genjutsu on her. Suddenly, he had a brilliant idea. He decided to make the Third Hokage take the blame! "Sakura, I¡¯m innocent!" "You don¡¯t know, but lately, the Third Hokage has been pushing me to revitalize the Uchiha clan!" This was actually the outcome of his negotiations with the Third Hokage today. Now, it had become Sasuke¡¯s excuse for his future harem. "Revitalize the Uchiha clan?" Sakura didn¡¯t quite understand. Sasuke shamelessly continued, "The Third Hokage thinks my genes are excellent and wants me to expand the Uchiha bloodline." "The plan is to have at least one or two hundred children!" Sasuke¡¯s words completely shocked Sakura. "One or two hundred children?!" She imagined herself alone giving birth. Even if she had one child per year, it would take a hundred or two hundred years¡­ That meant¡­ every year¡­ Too terrifying! Unimaginable¡­ Sakura, both shocked and extremely dissatisfied, said, "Has the Third Hokage lost his mind? Why would he do such a thing?" "For the sake of Konoha, I have no choice but to recruit more kunoichi to help expand the Uchiha clan."This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. At this point, Sakura couldn¡¯t listen anymore. "Stop, stop, stop!" She immediately retorted, "Sasuke, don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re trying to say that even though you have both me and Ino, you still feel wronged?" Sasuke grinned. "Of course not. I admit it¡ªwhen I see a beautiful woman, I can¡¯t help myself." "But, Sakura, I promise, in my heart, you will always be more important than Ino." Such shameless sweet talk might have been acceptable in an era where men had multiple wives. But in Konoha, where most people practiced monogamy, it sounded especially harsh. So! Sasuke knew that just this explanation alone wouldn¡¯t make Sakura accept his harem. That would be nothing short of a fantasy. So, as he spoke, he activated his Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan. The combination of genjutsu and words. Finally, Sakura revealed a sickly, approving expression. "Sasuke, as long as in your heart, I¡¯m more important than Ino, I¡¯m happy." Sasuke sighed helplessly, holding Sakura in his arms. "Sakura, bear with it a little." ¡­ At this moment, in Ino¡¯s home. Her feelings were even more complicated. At least Sakura was under Sasuke¡¯s genjutsu. But Ino had been fully conscious the whole time! Last night, she had been too exhausted and went to bed early. Early this morning, she woke up from a nightmare. Too terrifying! After that, she couldn¡¯t sleep anymore. Everything that happened yesterday felt like a dream. ¡®No matter how I think about it, it¡¯s unbelievable¡­¡¯ "Am I crazy?" "I must be crazy!" Ino hurriedly got dressed. This was a major life decision¡ªshe needed to talk to her parents. However, her parents had already fallen under Sasuke¡¯s genjutsu. The Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan¡¯s illusion wasn¡¯t just any ordinary genjutsu. Even a j¨­nin wouldn¡¯t be able to break it in a short time. "Ino, we think you and Sasuke are a great match." Ino felt utterly humiliated. "But Sasuke doesn¡¯t just have me¡­ he also has Sakura¡­" She thought her parents would scold her and lock her up. However, their response shocked her even more. "That¡¯s fine!" "Sasuke is responsible for revitalizing the Uchiha clan. It¡¯s normal for him to have multiple wives." Was this something normal people would say? At that moment, when Ino raised her head in shame and shock¡­ Her beautiful face held an expression of disbelief. Because standing there were Sasuke and Sakura. That¡¯s right! Those words from her parents just now were said under Sasuke¡¯s genjutsu. He not only wanted to brainwash Sakura and Ino into accepting his harem but also make the whole situation appear completely justifiable. "Sasuke, Sakura¡­" Ino¡¯s gaze wavered slightly. She didn¡¯t even dare to look¡­ --- In Ino¡¯s kitchen, Sasuke used Ichiraku Ramen¡¯s cooking techniques to prepare two bowls of noodles, which he then placed in front of Ino and Sakura. Sasuke genuinely cared for them. Putting himself in their shoes, they were both beautiful girls with limitless potential in the future¡­ "Ino, this is your allowance." Sasuke was generous. After negotiating with the Third Hokage and obtaining part of the Uchiha clan¡¯s inheritance, he immediately started giving Ino money to spend. Ino was just about to go to bed. The past two days had felt like a dream. Yesterday, she had just confirmed her relationship with Sasuke, and then he had spent an entire day exhausting her. After a night¡¯s rest, today was another eventful day. But seeing the meal Sasuke personally made¡­ And now, receiving an allowance as well, Ino couldn¡¯t help but feel touched. "Sasuke, I don¡¯t need you to give me money¡­" Ino wasn¡¯t with Sasuke for his wealth. Just like Sakura, she was drawn to Sasuke¡¯s unbelievably handsome face. Sasuke kissed Ino lightly and smiled. "Silly girl, you¡¯re my woman now. Of course, I want to make you the happiest woman in the world." Sasuke had gained a lot, so naturally, he wanted to give them a lot as well. "Sasuke¡ª" Ino wasn¡¯t moved by the money but by Sasuke¡¯s sweet words. But now, she realized she had been overthinking things. He was truly responsible! Even if he was ridiculously flirtatious, there weren¡¯t many men like him in all of Konoha. "Alright, get some rest early." "Don¡¯t worry, your husband¡ªSasuke¡ªwill always be by your side and never abandon you." These words finally eased the worries in Ino¡¯s heart. Though Sasuke hadn¡¯t been in relationships before, he had watched plenty of anime as a former shut-in. He had seen way too many protagonists get backstabbed! Now that he was powerful, he didn¡¯t have to worry about being assassinated by Ino or Sakura. Still, he wanted them to be happy with him. If only he was enjoying himself while they were left depressed and miserable, then he wouldn¡¯t consider his harem a success. Only when everyone was happy would things be truly perfect. As a transmigrator, seeking perfection wasn¡¯t too much to ask! ¡­ She fell asleep. Only then did Sasuke leave with Sakura in his arms. Sasuke had considered letting Sakura and Ino sleep together. After all, they used to be close friends. It was only because they both liked him that they had grown apart. But! Now that they were both his women, even if they were exhausted, they could easily share a bed. However, waking up together would definitely be awkward. Better to wait a little longer! When the time was right, Sasuke would arrange for them to sleep together. ¡­ ¡­ After bringing Sakura to her bedroom at home, Sasuke tucked her in. He also left her an allowance, then shared a gentle goodbye kiss before leaving. ¡­ Compared to Ino, Sakura¡¯s family conditions were a bit worse, so her allowance wasn¡¯t as generous. But for Sakura, this money could definitely improve her qual ity of life. ¡­ At Tsubaki¡¯s home, her furniture and clothes had all been completely renewed. Chapter 34: Ayame - Girlfriend Chapter 34: Ayame - Girlfriend Sasuke wasn''t worried about their safety. Because his system was incredibly powerful. With the [Danger Warning] function, he could monitor their safety at any time. As the protagonist of his own harem, there was no way he would let another man have even the slightest chance. His women would always belong to him. ... They had just graduated from the Ninja Academy yesterday, which meant that in a few days, the team assignments would take place. Given Sasuke¡¯s current strength, he could easily skip ranks and become an elite jonin. However, Sasuke didn¡¯t want to be too high-profile. Experiencing growth alongside Konoha¡¯s genin seemed rather interesting to him. The genin of Konoha would take on missions, work their way through the Chunin Exams, and eventually become jonin. Meanwhile, throughout this process, Sasuke would continue expanding his harem. At the same time, he could also use [Invincible Sign-In] to gain even more new abilities. ... Today was another day of rest. Sasuke didn''t go looking for Sakura or Ino. ... Among the members of his harem, there was still Ayame left. The daughter of the Ichiraku Ramen shop owner. ...If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. By midday, business at Ichiraku Ramen was going well. Ayame was busy working, but when she turned around and saw Uchiha Sasuke, her face instantly turned red. She shyly glanced at her father, Teuchi, the owner of Ichiraku Ramen. Sasuke wasn¡¯t one for beating around the bush. Even the Third Hokage had agreed¡ªSasuke was free to rebuild the Uchiha Clan however he wished, which meant expanding his harem as much as he wanted in Konoha. As for the parents of his harem members, Sasuke had no interest in getting entangled with them. Activating his Eternal Mangeky¨­ Sharingan with a single move. Teuchi immediately turned to his daughter and said, "Sasuke is here, Ayame. Make him a bowl of ramen yourself, and then go out and have fun with him." "Father?" Ayame was in disbelief. Her father shouldn¡¯t even know about her relationship with Sasuke. But now¡ª What was going on? Sasuke smiled and explained, "Ayame, don¡¯t worry. Your father fully supports you being with me." "..." Ayame was shocked. She hadn¡¯t seen Sasuke for two days. Had he been working on convincing her father during that time? Sasuke leaned in and whispered into Ayame¡¯s ear, "The Third Hokage has agreed to let me revive the Uchiha Clan, so I can marry as many wives as I want..." Ayame¡¯s face instantly turned bright red. To Ayame, Sasuke sounded like he was talking nonsense. However, Sasuke was her first love. She was still very tolerant of him. ... Ayame made a large bowl of ramen. Since Sasuke was her lover, she naturally made it extra generous. Sasuke smiled and quickly finished eating. Then, he pulled Ayame away from work early. Because Teuchi was under Sasuke¡¯s control, he even looked at their departing figures with a pleased expression. Little did he know, Sasuke had taken Ayame straight to her bedroom. ... "The Third Hokage fully supports me in reviving the Uchiha Clan¡¯s harem. He¡¯s already given me all of the Uchiha Clan¡¯s inheritance." "So, Ayame, even if you don¡¯t work, your husband Sasuke can provide for you." "From now on, you don¡¯t have to live cautiously." With the added recovery from the Nine-Tails'' chakra. "..." "Sasuke, even if everything you say is true..." "What about Sakura..." Ayame had agreed to be Sasuke¡¯s secret lover because she was afraid of hurting Sakura. As an outsider, she had always seen Sasuke and Sakura as a perfect match. "Ayame, don¡¯t worry. Sakura and Ino have both slept with me many times now." Just thinking about it was exciting. A life fit for an emperor! "Sasuke, you¡¯re too domineering..." ... Ayame quickly fell asleep, and before leaving, Sasuke left her some money. Sasuke felt that he was now their man. If he wanted to play with their soft and flawless bodies, he had to take responsibility as a man. Even if they didn¡¯t need Sasuke to support them financially, As the head of the household, it was only natural for him to provide for them. ... For the rest of the day, Sasuke finally stopped flirting with women. He chose to return to his room and rest alone. Even as a transmigrator, with the goal of collecting all the beautiful kunoichi in Konoha into his harem and doing as he pleased, He still needed some personal space. Too much of anything was never good! Sasuke had been indulgent these past few days! Now, the kunoichi Tsubaki willingly served as his slave. Ayame had also been reassured¡ªshe no longer needed to be afraid of being a secret lover. Like Sakura and Ino, she could now be open about their relationship. Meanwhile, the two beauties, Sakura and Ino, who once resisted and struggled after waking up, had now been fully subdued by Sasuke. Now, even if Sasuke wanted to play with both of them at the same time, it would be easy. ... So, for now, all four of his harem members had been properly arranged. Sasuke could finally rest in peace. Perhaps he was truly exhausted¡ªhe had been too excited during his intimate moments with the girls to notice. This time, while resting alone, he slept from the afternoon all the way until the next day. Because of Sasuke¡¯s growing reputation as a playboy, even Sakura no longer came to visit him as often. "Sasuke!" As the morning sunlight shone into his room, a familiar voice called out from outside his window. "Kakashi?" Sasuke looked out to see the uniquely styled and melancholic fan-favorite shinobi. "Wake up. The Hokage has assigned me as the leader of your squad with Naruto and Sakura." Kakashi introduced himself. Chapter 35: Sakura Chapter 35: Sakura To Kakashi, the Uchiha Sasuke standing before him was far from an ordinary person. In the original story, after the Konoha squad assignments, Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto had patiently waited at the designated location for Hatake Kakashi. ... But now, Kakashi had personally come looking for Sasuke. That was quite the honor! The reason Kakashi did this was that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had personally approached him and carefully informed him about Sasuke¡¯s current situation. When Kakashi learned that the Third Hokage was actually supporting Sasuke in building a harem in Konoha, allowing him to marry dozens of wives and father over a hundred children to revive the Uchiha Clan, Kakashi was completely stunned. "Lord Third Hokage, you¡­ you must be joking, right?" Even now, looking back on that moment, Kakashi still felt like his worldview had been shattered. Then, the Third Hokage told Kakashi that Sasuke¡¯s strength far exceeded his imagination. Sasuke had already awakened the Mangeky¨­ Sharingan and had mastered Fire, Wind, Lightning, Earth, and Water Release ninjutsu. To put it bluntly, Sasuke''s current strength already surpassed that of an elite jonin. "..." Upon hearing this, Kakashi had never been so shocked in his life. "Is this Sasuke even real?" Although Kakashi didn¡¯t want to doubt the Third Hokage¡¯s words, he had barely slept the entire night thinking about it. Early the next morning, he personally went to find Sasuke.If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation. Kakashi wanted to know if this low-key, wolf-in-sheep¡¯s-clothing Sasuke was really as powerful as the Third Hokage claimed. ... And thus, the scene before them unfolded. Sasuke, ever intelligent, immediately deduced from Kakashi¡¯s reaction that the Third Hokage must have informed him about everything. Otherwise, there was no way that Hatake Kakashi, the leader of Konoha''s Team 7, would personally come looking for Sasuke. "Uchiha Sasuke, since you know my name, I assume you recognize me." Kakashi said, "Since that''s the case, let¡¯s skip the formalities." "I want to see your true strength¡­" Even though, in the original story, Kakashi valued a ninja¡¯s character and teamwork more than raw power, In that story, he used the bell test not to gauge the genin¡¯s strength but to observe the bond between them. However! The Uchiha Sasuke before him was a complete anomaly. Kakashi was desperate to see just how powerful Sasuke truly was¡­ Sasuke casually smiled and said, "Sure, but I think it would be better to wait for Sakura and Naruto so we can all test ourselves together." As he spoke, Sasuke instantly flashed behind Kakashi and casually patted him on the shoulder. [ Ding! ] [ Congratulations! Sign-in with Kakashi successful. Reward obtained: Lightning Release - Chidori. ] Just as Sasuke had expected. By touching Kakashi, he was able to sign in and receive a ninjutsu reward. "..." Meanwhile, Kakashi was utterly speechless. ¡®This is Sasuke?¡¯ ¡®This is a genin from Konoha?¡¯ Unbelievable! Just now, Kakashi hadn¡¯t even been able to react before Sasuke had already closed the distance on him. What did that mean? His blood surged with excitement, and he couldn¡¯t resist the urge to attack Sasuke. But Sasuke had no intention of fighting Kakashi just yet. Without an audience, there was no point in defeating Kakashi. Sasuke wanted to recreate the original story¡ªwhere he, Sakura, and Naruto had to fight for the bells. In the original, the three genin were completely powerless. Especially Naruto, who was humiliated by Kakashi¡¯s Thousand Years of Death technique. But now! Sasuke wanted to change history and make Naruto realize the gap between them. Otherwise, Naruto would keep trying to compare himself to Sasuke. And he also wanted Sakura to return to her former fangirl self, utterly worshipping him once again. Without an audience, Sasuke wasn¡¯t even interested in fighting Kakashi. "Kakashi, let''s go find my girlfriend Sakura and Naruto." As Sasuke spoke, his Sharingan gleamed ominously. "..." Kakashi immediately stopped himself from making a move. If Sasuke were just an average genin, Kakashi wouldn¡¯t care too much. But now, with Sasuke¡¯s strength possibly surpassing his own, Kakashi had to take his words seriously. "Alright!" Kakashi reluctantly nodded in agreement. The two of them quickly arrived at Haruno Sakura¡¯s house. Since she had taken the day off, Sakura looked particularly radiant, and her figure had developed far beyond what it had in the original story. All thanks to Sasuke. "Sasuke!" Sakura still had feelings for Sasuke, though her affection was now mixed with something else. "Sasuke, there¡¯s someone else here¡­" Kakashi stood to the side, stunned. ¡®Are kids nowadays this aggressive in relationships?¡¯ Sasuke¡¯s open flirtation with Sakura once again shattered Kakashi¡¯s worldview. "This is Hatake Kakashi, an elite jonin from Konoha and our future Team 7 leader." "Not an outsider!" Sasuke continued holding Sakura by the waist as he introduced him. "Kakashi-sensei¡­ Hello." Sakura was extremely embarrassed. What should have been a normal introduction became an incredibly awkward moment due to Sasuke¡¯s boldness. "..." Even as a seasoned ninja, Kakashi felt like he was intruding and awkwardly cleared his throat. "Now that we¡¯ve found Sakura, let¡¯s go get Naruto." "Alright!" Sasuke refused to let go of Sakura. "Let¡¯s go, Sakura, let¡¯s find Naruto." At the same time, Sasuke also wanted Sakura to have a normal life. That way, the future would be more enjoyable. But Sakura¡¯s life had been too gloomy. Living like a normal person would make her days more fulfilling. "Mhm, everything is up to you, Sasuke." Though still shy, Sakura was secretly delighted. After all, with Team 7 forming, she could finally spend more time alone with Sasuke. She no longer had to be jealous of Ino sharing him. ... As they went to find Naruto, Kakashi, walking ahead, was unable to see what was happening behind him.
