The Uchiha's Path to the Top, Starting from Konoha

Chapter 162 Everyday Life

The Ninja World, Konoha.

The news that the leader of the ninja world's two wives were pregnant at the same time spread throughout the ninja world.

Many wives of ninja clan chiefs, or women with close relationships, came to visit.

For a time, the president's residence was filled with the sounds of women chatting and laughing. Uchiha Takeo was overjoyed and held the hands of Uchiha Rinpoche and Minamoto Kaori, welcoming everyone's congratulations.

Uchiha Hikaru pouted and stared at Uchiha Takehiro's back with an extremely dangerous look.

(The idea that I'm still young and we should talk about having children in a few years is all a lie.)

(Minako Uzumaki gave birth to Tsunade at my age, as did everyone else in the ninja world.)

Hikari Uchiha, who was secretly muttering to herself, looked at her two older sisters, who were beaming with happiness, with envious eyes. What else could she say?

(Don't rush, what's meant to come will come eventually.)

As Uchiha Hikaru was thinking this, he arrived in Konoha through the teleportation array. The shrine maiden Momiji, who had obviously changed her appearance, walked gracefully in front of the group.

"Your Majesty, Lady Kaori, the Ruler."

After respectfully completing the formalities, Momiji didn't dare look at Uchiha Hikaru, who was staring intently at her.

From their playful moments together to their shared bed as a trio, the memories remain incredibly shy for the shrine maiden.

"Greetings, Your Excellency Hongye."

Uchiha Rinpoche looked at Momiji, who was wearing a priestess's crown and a scarlet hakama, exuding a mature charm, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he smiled gently.

"I entrust the rest of my prayers for the child's health to you, Mr. Hongye."

"It's my duty."

As soon as Momiji finished speaking, Kaori Minamoto took her hands and extended an invitation, "Lady Momiji, why don't you stay here to make it more convenient to pray for the child? My house is quite big."

Upon hearing this, Kureha's heart trembled, and Uchiha Takeo was completely lost in thought, as if nothing in the world mattered to him.

"I still need to take care of the matters at the shrine, Kaori-sama. I'm so sorry."

Momiji's polite refusal was within Kaori's expectations. She glanced at her lecherous husband—who had sneaked away last night. Don't think he can get away with it as secretly as before.

Approaching the critical point of the Six Paths, which translates to a level of 95 or higher in physical skills, Minamoto Kaori is almost at the level of "the cicada senses the autumn wind before it blows."

No sound or movement in the surroundings could escape Minamoto Kaori's notice; she could even sense fluctuations in the space itself.

Therefore, rather than letting Uchiha Takeo sneak around having affairs without restraint, it's better to keep the wildflowers under our noses.

She certainly didn't want to discover during her pregnancy that Uchiha Takeo had gotten someone else pregnant.

"It's alright with the shrine's affairs. I will arrange a professional team to manage it, and I'm sure the shrine's business will flourish."

Kaori Minamoto was half a head shorter than Momiji, but under her gaze, Momiji couldn't help but lower her head.

Having said all that, she had no choice but to agree.

"Thank you for your kindness, Kaori-sama."

"The priestess is Susanoo's messenger. We're all family, so there's no need to be so polite."

Having figured out Kaori's plan, Uchiha Osamu also grabbed Momiji's hand, stroking the mature woman's still smooth and fair hand, and said meaningfully.

"These hands alone would surely make the revered Martial Venerable extremely happy, wouldn't they?"

"Is that right?"

"My dear An-jun?"

The light and casual tone made Uchiha Takeo feel as if three mountains were pressing down on his heart. Before he could speak, Uchiha Hikaru also joined in the fun.

"More than that, Lord Martial Venerable not only admires the priestess's delicate hands, but also her beautiful face."

The girl's voice was not loud, and only her family members nearby could hear it. The women and girls around her could only feel the air pressure suddenly drop, and their spines go cold, before it returned to normal.

"Indeed, I am pitiful to behold, so it's not surprising that Lord Martial Venerable would like me."

After Uchiha Rinpoche praised him, Minamoto Kaori gave Uchiha Hikaru a deep look.

She always felt that her younger sister knew many things that her two older sisters didn't.

His testimony in bed last night might have been a deliberate act of deception, a scheme orchestrated by him and Uchiha Takeo.

(I'll find some time to bomb her.)

With a plan in mind, Kaori Minamoto's smile became even more radiant, bearing a resemblance to her brother, Kazuhiko Minamoto.

"Kaori".

When his daughter became pregnant with the Supreme Leader's child, Minamoto Kazuhiko, as a member of the maternal family, led groups of relatives to congratulate Minamoto Kaori one after another.

Especially the children who have grown up in recent years, their clear and sweet congratulatory voices softened Kaori Minamoto's gaze.

My own childhood was not happy, but I have no connection with the new generation.

She plans to select children from among them who are worth nurturing, to keep them by her side, to cultivate talent for Konoha, and to make plans for her own children's future.

The Magic Continent is even larger than the Ninja World Continent. According to her husband's personality, their children will definitely be assigned to the Magic Continent to govern a region. The talents cultivated now will surely be useful in the future, and they will be easy to use.

The entire ninja world is currently facing a happy dilemma – vast territory, few people, and many duties!

Most of the male members of the Uchiha clan are taciturn, but they are all skilled fighters and killers, and are extremely rare in their ability to flatter and fawn.

The Uchiha who came were mostly women, while the men just stood by and stared blankly.

Fortunately, Uchiha Takeo was there and pulled them aside for a short meeting.

The topic of the meeting left the Uchiha men both happy and worried.

Giving birth is nothing compared to the comfort and pleasure of cultivation and killing people.

The Uchiha are the ones who dance on the edge of a knife and sing amidst raging flames. Spending all day in bed with women is just a waste of time and energy.

"Without further ado, I want this number within ten years."

Uchiha Takeo gestured with his fingers, causing the Uchiha men's eyes to darken.

You think you can just tell us to have children? Who do you think you are!

If it weren't for the fact that it was their own revered head of state making the statement, they would have already started arguing back and forth.

"During the Warring States period, which family didn't have five or six children? Now, your generation can't even do that?"

Seeing the somewhat tense atmosphere around Uchiha Takeo, he directly provoked him, saying, "If you're not feeling well, you can go to the hospital for a checkup. The clan will fully reimburse the expenses!"

Instantly, the Uchiha men stiffened their necks, their faces flushed, and they patted their chests, declaring that they would make sure their wives couldn't get out of bed for years to come.

Some even said they wanted to marry ten!

He was immediately met with disdainful looks from his companions—who didn't know their background?

The eventful day quickly passed, and a massive ruin quietly appeared on the Katz Plains to the southeast of [Ye Lantier].
