Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

"So, you are rich now?"

Uchiha Gin tilted his head and looked at Kakuzu with a different look in his eyes. He just liked to be friends with rich people.
Although it is impossible to be richer than him~
"Forehead"

Kakuzu was carefully counting the storage scrolls he was carrying when he suddenly felt a chill on his back, a sense of being coveted.

Subconsciously tightening the scroll in his hand, Kakuzu looked at Uchiha Gin with a very alert expression.

"I have deposited all my money in a bank, and it's still a dead end."

Don’t even think about getting a penny out of me!
"Don't get me wrong, a gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way."

Seeing Kakuzu's intense reaction, Uchiha Gin immediately waved his hand. Although he liked to cheat people out of money, every time he did it was justified and in accordance with the will of heaven. He was not the kind of person who would take things by force.

Just as Uchiha Gin was thinking about how to get the gold coins in Laodu through formal channels, Shenhuo, with a gloomy expression, came over with his wife.

However, compared to Shenhuo's worried look, Mako was more interested in the Honey x Ice City in his hand. He puffed up his little face and sipped the mellow and delicious milk tea, his half-closed eyes filled with happiness.

"Senior Jian! This is delicious. I brought you a cup too~"

Mako handed Kakuzu a cup of hot milk tea with a smile, which earned him a slightly blaming look.

"Why waste this money? This cup costs 1000 taels, which is enough for my living expenses for a week."

"I won this cup in a lottery. It would be a waste if you don't drink it."

"It's a shame to waste."

After Mako's explanation, Kakuzu, who adhered to the philosophy of thrift and diligence, finally took the milk tea with a look of relief in the corners of his eyes.

A heartwarming scene filled with family affection. Uchiha Gin was so dazzled that he couldn't open his eyes. When did the prisoner recognize his daughter?
"What kind of strict father and filial daughter show are you guys giving me here?"

"I don't know her well, just..."

Kakuzu, who was happily drinking milk tea, heard Uchiha Gin's slightly teasing voice and subconsciously retorted.
However, after seeing Mako's somewhat lost expression, he paused with his mouth open and did not say the next words.

Shen Huo at the side took a step forward and stood in front of Uchiha Gin who was eating melons. Under the other's puzzled gaze, he performed a dogeza with his butt raised high.
"Please, please help Mako!"

"Oh?"

Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows, rested his chin with both hands, and had an expression that said, "Go on, I'm listening."

"Maki is pregnant."

"I know."

"what?"

"I'm not blind. My stomach is so big. It can't be that I ate too much, right?"

"Creak~Creak~Creak~"

Seeing Shen Huo's shocked expression, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but roll his eyes. But just when he was halfway through his words, an inappropriate chewing sound was heard nearby.
"Senior Jian, this corn I brought from home tastes good, right? I planted it myself~"

Mako took out a big package from somewhere and was chewing the corn with relish. Not only did he fill his mouth with corn, he also generously gave one to Kakuzu beside him.

"Thank you, I'm not hungry yet."

Looking at the plump corns, Kakuzu waved his hand with a frown on his face to refuse.
"Makko, your appetite is still as good as ever."

"Because I need to supplement my nutrition recently."

As they were talking, a small hill of corn cobs appeared on the ground. If Bangzi saw this, he would definitely call it a waste.

"Of course, it is possible that I ate too much."

Seeing this scene, Uchiha Gin changed the subject and revealed the same expression as Kakuzu.

"Mako is a little greedy, but she is really pregnant."

Shenhuo looked at his wife, who was showing off, and scratched his head a little embarrassedly. Pity flashed in his eyes, and then turned into deep worry.

“But something is wrong with our child.”

"tell me the story."

Uchiha Gin glanced at Mako, who was as strong as an ox, and then said,

"Satoru told Mako that the child she was carrying was a youkai."

"what is going on?"

Kakuzu, who had been eavesdropping for a long time, couldn't help but interrupt and ask, the worry in his eyes didn't seem fake,

“Lord God, that’s just Wu’s one-sided statement.”

Mako, who was chewing corn, came over, pouting with an unhappy look on his face.
"But since you became pregnant, your physical condition has been getting worse day by day. Isn't this the same as what Wu said?"

Shen Huo frowned, pointed at Zhenzi whose face was covered with food residue, and said with a distressed look,

"Well, my body is just a little weak. Isn't this similar to the early pregnancy symptoms the doctor in town mentioned?"

Not wanting to make her husband worry too much, Mako still stubbornly retorted,

"Mako, if you really feel unwell, go to a regular hospital and get checked out by a good doctor."

Kakuzu finally understood Mako's current situation. When they met before, he thought she was simply pregnant.

I was thinking about preparing a red envelope after the game, but I didn't expect that there would be problems with the baby Mako was pregnant with.

"Come here and let me take a look."

This situation is quite interesting. As a very curious person, Uchiha Gin naturally would not miss such an unheard-of thing and waved at Mako who was full of indignation.

"I'm not doubting your ability, Decade brother, but do you really understand obstetrics and gynecology?"

Mako came over reluctantly, looking at Uchiha Gin with suspicion.

“I know a little bit~”

Sure enough, handsome people always receive inexplicable doubts.

"I still think that Konoha's gynecological master is more reliable."

"Well, my skills are 50-50 with his. If you don't believe me, wait until I'm done with it, then go find him and see if what we say is exactly the same."

I didn't expect that Mako would doubt his medical skills, but now that he was wearing this vest, he really had no credibility. Uchiha Gin was not angry, and motioned for the other party to stretch out his hand.
Placing his hand on Mako's wrist, Uchiha Gin sent a strand of perceptual chakra into her body, which passed through a long meridian and finally reached the cradle where the baby was nurturing.

"what?"

Uchiha Gin frowned. There was indeed something wrong with the child that Mako was carrying.

In his perception, the newly formed baby actually exuded the same aura as the monster Wu.

Uchiha Gin, who was afraid that he had misdiagnosed the pulse, opened his Byakugan instead. His gaze penetrated through numerous obstacles and finally reached the baby, allowing him to see it thoroughly.

“That’s true.”

After confirming again and again, he closed his Byakugan, withdrew his hand, touched his chin and began to think.

Something is wrong. It's absolutely wrong. Although the Mako in front of her had been possessed by Satoru before, after she sealed Satoru into the card, she should have turned into a normal human being. How could she give birth to a child with Satoru's chakra?

"What did the monster say to you?"

Since he had no clue, Uchiha Gin turned to ask what Qiwu had said.
"Well, it said that the child is its."

When asked this question, Mako's face looked a little bad, but she still answered truthfully.

"Huh? Boy, you've been cheated on!"

Uchiha Gin turned his head and looked at the anxious Shenhuo with a comforting look on his face.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Shen was very anxious. He and Zhenzi had a strong bond and would never do anything unfaithful.

"That's right, Wu's voice is a woman's. How could anything happen between me and it? Uh?"

Mako also followed suit and very seriously revealed a piece of information that no one else knew. However, as soon as she said it, she froze in place and her face began to change, turning red and green.

"Oh~ Boy, you are really the descendant of Emperor Beifeng!"

With a strange cry, Uchiha Gin's eyes became gossipy. He glanced at the confused Shenhuo several times and showed an expression of great admiration.

"I'm not, I didn't!"

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Shenhuo panicked and waved his hands repeatedly to prove his innocence.

"Mako, believe me, I only love you in my life!"

Seeing his wife's face becoming more and more ugly, Shenhuo raised his hand and swore.
"Shenhuo, I believe you, but I want to ask you a question."

Mako's expression turned cold. He said he believed her, but even the way she addressed him became a little strange.
"Don't mention just one, even if it's a hundred or a thousand, I will answer them truthfully. I won't lie."

"Well, let me ask you, how many times a week do we usually do that?"

"Ah? Do you really need to answer this question?"

Shenhuo was stunned when he heard this, and his expression became awkward.

“Must answer!”

"Five times."

"Boom!"

The corn cob in his hand turned into powder instantly. Mako raised his head, his face frighteningly dark.

"Isn't that right? In fact, sometimes it's six times, and it's usually in the middle of the night when I finish playing."

Shen Huo, who thought he had answered incorrectly, hastened to make amends, but as he spoke, Mako's expression became more and more terrifying;
"Brother Decade, do you know how to do physical sterilization? I think Shenhuo needs a minor surgery."

Mako felt like she was being backstabbed. Clearly, the couple only did that once or twice a week, and both times were when Shenhuo was resting during the day. Now the other party told her that they did that every night. Who could stand it?

"Well, he just made the same mistake every man makes."

Uchiha Gin also figured out the reason, so he added fuel to the fire, since it had nothing to do with him anyway~
What Wu said was indeed correct. The child in Mako's belly was indeed its, but it was the result of it and the Divine Fire. It was probably a secondary account that Wu created when Mako was not prepared.

"Die! Divine Fire!" The fire of jealousy burned. Mako never dreamed that one day she would be raped by a monster, and through her body.

Not only did she not get any satisfaction herself, but she also had to help the adulterous couple have a child. Who could she go to for justice?

The only solution now is to cut it off!
So she swung her fist, picked up the Divine Fire and started beating him up, her punches hitting the flesh and making the people around her tremble with fear.
"No! Mako, I'm passive."

Under the wrath of his wife, Shenhuo, who felt extremely aggrieved, could not help but appeal for himself.

No wonder Mako was so active at night, and her movements were very rough, it turned out that she was not herself~
"Okay, okay, if you keep hitting him like this, when will he die?"

Looking at Shenhuo's bruised face, Uchiha Gin called for an end to the domestic violence scene.
"Humph!"

Mako snorted coldly, threw the pig-like divine fire aside like a rag, took out the corn from the package and started to chew it.

She was hungry again after just exercising.

Ever since she became pregnant, Mako's hunger has become more and more intense. Fortunately, the vitality in her body is much stronger than that of ordinary people, otherwise she would have been sucked dry by the baby in her belly.

"Brother Decade, can you help us?"

The dead dog-like Shenhuo crawled to Uchiha Gin's feet, raised his head tremblingly,

“Yes, yes, this is it.”

Uchiha Gin had many solutions to Mako's current situation, but if he told the other party easily, it would make his prestige seem a bit cheap, so he stretched out his finger and made a Mane gesture.

"We have it. Here is the money we have saved over the years. Please show us a way out!"

Shen Huo understood immediately, pulled out the scroll from his waist, and handed it to Uchiha Gin respectfully.
Mako is only three months pregnant and she is already so weak. If she delays any further, she will probably die before the baby is born.

"Tsk, that's all? Do you think I'm doing charity?"

Taking the scroll, Uchiha Gin explored it expectantly, and his face instantly turned ugly. There was no mountain of gold and silver as he believed, only a few stacks of banknotes, the total amount of which was less than the equivalent of a gold brick.

No, you two have hands and feet, it’s not possible that you have only saved such a small amount of money in so many years, right?

"Makko usually eats a lot, so..."

Shenhuo scratched his head in embarrassment. He had been working two jobs in the town, day and night. He went out to earn bounties during the day and worked as a night watchman in the town at night. He lived a wealthy life.
But his wife is such a big eater. When she was a teenager, Mako was already a competent glutton, and she became even more amazing after she became pregnant.
Its tiny body can hold food that is several times its own size, and the requirements are quite high, it must be high-protein and high-calorie food.

"You mean I can eat it? You weren't like this before!"

When Mako heard this, he felt terrified. As expected, a man who made a mistake is wrong no matter what he says.

"If that's all, I can't help you. I don't really need any money, I just want an attitude~"

After throwing the scroll back, Uchiha Gin started to recite xxn's famous quotes, which made people's blood pressure soar.

"This"

The couple looked at each other, at a loss for a moment.
"How much is missing?"

At this moment, Kakuzu, who had been listening, suddenly spoke up.
"Senior Ejian, you?"

"I have some here. I can lend it to you, but you need to sign a contract."

Kakuzu glanced at Mako, who looked stunned, and turned his head away. He then skillfully took out a pen and paper from his pocket.

"Hey~ How many do you have in prison?"

Uchiha Gin smiled and glanced at Kakuzu from head to toe, his eyes full of ridicule.

"It depends on how much you want."

Shaking his head, Kakuzu asked back,

"Then just give me this scroll for the sake of our acquaintance."

His eyes fell on the scroll in Kakuzu's hand. Uchiha Gin was not greedy and only wanted that one.

"Are you sure? There's nothing valuable in here."

Kakuzu frowned. The scroll he was sorting out now contained things that he had stolen from the treasure house of Takigakure Village. Everything that could be converted into cash had already been converted into cash by him, and only some bottles and jars were left.

"Yes, you know, I don't really like money. I'm not interested in money."

Taking the scroll from Kakuzu, Uchiha Gin pretended to be very nervous, then turned to look at Mako who looked very worried.

"I have already received the payment from your old father."

"What are you yelling about!"

When Kakuzu heard this, he stood up suddenly, his angry eyes showing a hint of avoidance and expectation.

"Why, did I call you wrong?"

"Senior Jian, please accept my greeting. From now on, you are my father."

Mako bit her lip and walked up to Kakuzu who looked annoyed, bowed respectfully, and when she raised her head, her expression was very serious.

"Why are you following him to cause trouble? We are not the same kind of people."

Kakuzu frowned and took a step back to create some distance.

"No, in fact, I have already regarded Senior Jian as my father."

Back then, after successfully resolving Wu's crisis, Mako regained consciousness, but his mindset was still that of a teenager.
She was an orphan and lacked family affection since childhood. It happened that the older Kakuzu appeared and, under the coercion of someone, taught her very seriously to master the power of a knight.

After a short period of getting along, the simple Mako has already regarded this stingy old man who says one thing but does another as her elder.

Even after Kakuzu left, Mako still often wrote to him, asking him questions about training and chatting about family matters. The two of them never really lost contact over the years.

Kakuzu's experience is similar to Mako's. He also lost his parents when he was young. After finally growing up, he was betrayed by his closest friend.
So he, who thought he saw through everything, was only interested in money, and he deliberately avoided the family emotions conveyed by Mako.

On the one hand, he is a homeless wanderer with blood on his hands, and he doesn't want to disturb the normal life of Mako and the other two. On the other hand, he is afraid of being betrayed again. Kakuzu doesn't want to experience that feeling again.

"Laodu, this is your fault. You will be able to have a grandchild soon, but you insist on being alone. Are you afraid of receiving red envelopes during festivals?"

Seeing Kakuzu's troubled face, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but come out and give him a push.
In this timeline, he is still a good guy, and has not turned evil like the Grandet in the original novel who is good at backstabbing his teammates.
I finally came across a good bond, what are you waiting for if you don’t take it?
Are you waiting to team up with that psychopath Feidan?

"Nonsense! I can still afford the red envelope for my grandson!"

He did not expect that the other party would dare to look down on him. Kakuzu turned back subconsciously to refute. However, when he turned around, he saw Mako's excited and tearful eyes. His imposing manner softened instantly.
"Father~"

"Hey~"

"Father!"

Seeing the heartwarming scene of father and daughter recognizing each other, Shenhuo couldn't help but come over and called out with a shy face.

"Get lost! You bastard who bullied my daughter, I'll rip your heart out!"

"Okay, okay, wait until I'm done with my illness, then it won't be too late for you to deal with your cheating son-in-law~"

Seeing Kakuzu taking out the driver with a bad look on his face, Uchiha Gin immediately raised his hand to stop him.

"Humph! You are lucky, kid. After I cure Mako, I will slowly deal with you."

After retracting the driver, Kakuzu glared at the trembling Shenhuo with his green eyes, then turned his head and looked at the smiling Mako, his tone was rarely gentle,

"Don't worry, your father will support you in the future!"

"Thank you, father~"

Feeling the support of her family, Mako's gloom was swept away. She walked slowly to Uchiha Gin, raised her head, and waited for his solution.

"There are two options now. First, abort the child."

If this small account created by Wuding continues to grow, the Mako, as the seedbed, will be sucked into a rib-shaped Nagato even if he has the vitality of the Senju clan.
Getting rid of the baby now can stop the loss to the greatest extent. The lost vitality can be mostly recovered by raising the baby.

Uchiha Gin's first statement silenced the three of them. Mako's eyes were filled with deep reluctance. He lowered his head and touched his slightly bulging belly with a very complicated expression.

After all, this was the first life she had conceived. Even if she was not the main participant, it would eventually come out of her belly. How could she accept being told to have an abortion all of a sudden?

"Fight! Now, immediately, you must fight!"

On the contrary, Shenhuo, after a mental struggle, gritted his teeth and said,

If any man were faced with the question of whether to save the older or the younger, he would choose to save the older.

"Mako, what do you think?"

The corner did not express his opinion, but instead asked the person involved what he thought.

"I want to hear the second option."

This answer basically rejected the first option. Uchiha Gin nodded and continued,

"The second option is to strengthen your own physique. As long as your health bar is thick enough, you can support it until the birth of the child."

Mako's current predicament is that her income is not enough to cover her expenses. She has to rely on consuming a lot of food to barely meet the needs of the baby in her belly. If that is not enough, she has to add her own vitality.
It's probably because he's too weak. If it was Hashirama, he could easily give birth to eight or ten of them at once.
"Strengthen your physique?"

Kakuzu's eyes flashed with thought, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked,

"Can my Earth Grudge Technique...?"

"It's not impossible, but the demand will be a little greater."

I didn't expect Kakuzu to be so imaginative that he would actually think of using the Earth Grudge Technique to strengthen Mako's physique. However, if he did so, the price for this family would be very heavy.
Not only does he have to constantly look for a new heart, but Mako also has to become a monster covered in black tentacles.

"Will the vitality be enough if there is one more person?"

Suddenly, the Divine Fire, who had been silent for a long time, raised his head and asked a strange question.

This guy, is it
"I don't think it's enough. Judging from this child's appetite, the vitality of an ordinary person is just a drop in the bucket."

Uchiha Gin then took a serious look at the Divine Fire, which had a low presence. Since the other party could ask such a question, combined with his birthplace, it was very likely that he had some bloodline hidden.

"What should I do?"

The three people who were rejected one after another were at a loss.
However, at this moment, Uchiha Gin, who had been waiting for the best opportunity, smiled and raised the scroll he had just traded.

"Actually, I have a special medicine here. It depends on how much you are willing to pay~" (End of this chapter)
