Chapter 4: Chapter 4: My best friend says it is the best option to be a mother!
"Yukino, why are you here?" Natsuo looked at the girl in his arms with some confusion.
She was Natsuo's former teammate, a beautiful civilian ninja.
However, her talent was only average and couldn't compare to the elite genin like Sakura and Rin. She was currently at the genin level.
"I heard you came back... That's great, I knew you wouldn't die!" Yukino's eyes were moist as she tightly hugged Natsuo. She held him with all her strength, her palms gripping tightly as if afraid that if she relaxed even a little, the person in front of her would fly away.
As a ninja, Natsuo naturally had teammates he could rely on.
However, when he planned to fake his death, he deliberately chose a time when one of his teammates was injured and went out alone on a mission. He successfully faked his death - it was said that this example was even used by the Third Hokage as a teaching material for the ninja academy, referred to as the "consequence of a lone wolf."
"It's okay to feel sad. Now I'm back." Natsuo whispered softly, "Cry as much as you need."
"It's okay, I feel better now." Yukino's eyes were still red.
She looked around at the silent base and the bloodstains that hadn't been cleaned up yet.
"I wanted to come earlier, but there were ANBU guarding outside your Uchiha clan, not letting me in."
"Natsuo, is it true that your Uchiha clan..." Yukino hesitated.
"Yes, it's true." Natsuo nodded, "Now, there are only two of us left in the Uchiha clan, me and Sasuke."
Yukino's eye sockets instantly turned red again. She gently held Natsuo, as if afraid of hurting the person in her arms. "Why are the heavens so unfair? You barely survived and came back to the village, and..."
Her voice was filled with heartache.
Her delicate hand gently caressed Natsuo's back. "Natsuo, it's okay, don't worry. The Uchiha clan is one of the great clans in Konoha. Konoha will not let the Uchiha clan be destroyed."
Natsuo heard this and couldn't help but his eyes twitched slightly.
Girl, you probably don't know that Konoha is about 99% responsible for the Uchiha clan's extermination. If it weren't for my decisive action to ask the Third Hokage to seal off the Uchiha clan's residence when I came back, Sarutobi Hiruzen, out of face-saving considerations, would have had to send people there. I estimate that the clan's assets and ninja scrolls would have been 'lost' by now!
And Yukino continued to comfort gently, "The Third Hokage won't just sit idly by, the major clans might also help."
"And... I will help too..."
When she said the last sentence, Yukino's face blushed slightly, and her voice was very soft. If you didn't listen carefully, you might not even hear it.
...
The two of them chatted for a while.
Yukino couldn't help but ask about Natsuo's plans for the future.
Natsuo didn't hold back and revealed his "Revival of Uchiha, Starting with a Harem" plan.
The revival of the Uchiha clan needed children!
However, in the world of the Hokage, although there was no formal agreement, the default among ninjas was still monogamy.
It was only the high-ranking nobles of the Fire Country who had multiple wives and concubines.
His changes had to be publicized so that the women of Konoha would be aware of it and have the opportunity to seize it!
"Your Uchiha clan does need new blood." Yukino blushed, but nodded without hesitation, "This is for the clan, Natsuo, you have to work hard."
"Oh, by the way, you haven't been home for half a year, and there's a lot of dust accumulated there. I wanted to help you clean up before, but your clan members wouldn't let me in."
"Let me help you tidy up the house!"
"Living in a clean house will improve your mood!"
With that, she rolled up her sleeves and started working with a smile.
The time for the ANBU blockade was limited, so Natsuo naturally prioritized organizing important items such as ninja scrolls and property deeds.
As for the place to live. If it weren't for the fact that ninjas were accustomed to a harsh life, they might not be able to live there.
The big cleaning began.
It wasn't just Natsuo's room, but also the dark red bloodstains on the ground that had to be cleaned bit by bit.
Before they knew it, it was already dark.
Natsuo thought for a moment and said, "You can stay here tonight. It's too late to go back to your place now."
"Don't worry, the bedding in the house is clean."
"Okay..." Yukino blushed and nodded gently.
That night.
Natsuo had just laid down. A series of soft sounds rang out. Yukino gently pushed open the door and walked in.
"Yukino, what are you..." Natsuo was momentarily stunned, then smiled helplessly, "I need to rejuvenate the Uchiha clan, perhaps I can't be considered a qualified husband."
"I don't care... I don't want to just secretly watch you like before!" Yukino's face was red, her whole body trembling slightly, like a frightened little rabbit, her voice filled with shyness.
But her actions were decisive.
"And Natsuo, do you know? My friends say that a girl like me is the best to be a mother!"
