The Seductive Scene within the Desire Hot Spring

Thirty minutes later.

In the real-time feed, the figures of Mikoto and Kushina appeared at the entrance of the Desire Hot Spring.

The two walked inside arm in arm, laughing and chatting.

The receptionist at the door froze for a moment, instinctively wanting to block them, but Kushina lifted her chin:

"I was specially approved by your clan leader!"

The receptionist's attitude changed instantly, and with a face full of smiles, he ushered them inside, even taking special care to arrange the indoor hot spring with the best environment for them.

Walking down a long corridor lined with bamboo fences and stone lanterns, they stepped along a bluestone path that ended at a wooden door.

Pushing the door open revealed a quiet and elegant room.

Tatami mats covered the floor, flower arrangements sat in the corners, and outside the window were rockeries and flowing water.

Clean yukatas and towels were placed on a shelf against the wall, and a faint fragrance drifted through the air.

Mikoto and Kushina changed into their yukatas and walked into the inner chamber.

The inner chamber contained a small indoor hot spring; the pool was built of bluestone, and the water was crystal clear, rising with curling wisps of steam.

Xuandou's breath hitched for a moment.

The two began to change their clothes.

Mikoto stood with her back to the feed, untying the sash of her kimono, which slid off her shoulders to reveal her smooth back.

Her skin was fair, the curve of her shoulders graceful, and her waist slender...

She changed into a swimsuit and turned around.

It was a dark blue two-piece swimsuit.

The top was a bandeau style, and the bottom was a string bikini.

The swimsuit was not particularly revealing, but on her, it possessed an indescribable charm.

Kushina's movements were much more casual.

She quickly stripped off her outer clothes, revealing a fiery red bikini.

Large swaths of snow-white skin were exposed; there wasn't an ounce of fat on her waist or abdomen, and her legs were long and straight.

She stretched, the curve of her chest becoming even more pronounced.

"Mikoto, hurry and get in!"

She was the first to step into the pool, the water rippling as it rose over her calves, knees, and thighs...

Mikoto also slowly walked into the pool.

The two sat down in the water, which reached just to their chests.

The heat rose, and the swirling mist blurred the scenery beneath the water, yet it made the parts exposed above the surface all the more alluring.

"Mmm~..."

Kushina leaned her head back against the edge of the pool and let out a comfortable moan.

Her face was flushed, her eyes squinted, and her lips slightly parted, looking utterly blissful.

Mikoto was much more reserved.

She simply leaned gently against the edge of the pool, eyes closed, breathing evenly.

But judging by her slightly heaving chest and increasingly rosy cheeks, she was enjoying the comfort of the hot spring just as much.

Kushina opened her eyes, turned her head to look at Mikoto, and smirked:

"Mikoto, there's no one else here, just let it out if it feels good."

Mikoto opened her eyes, her face turning even redder.

Kushina suddenly swam over, leaned in close to Mikoto, and began to tickle her.

"Ah!"

Mikoto let out a startled cry, instinctively trying to dodge, but was grabbed by Kushina.

"Don't move, don't move, let me tickle you..."

"Hahaha, don't... don't touch there... it's ticklish!"

Mikoto was tickled until she was shaking with laughter, splashing water everywhere.

She tried to push Kushina away, but her hands lacked strength, making it look more like she was playing hard to get.

Kushina tickled her with even more enthusiasm.

"Ugh... don't... don't touch there... it's ticklish!"

"That's for pretending to be reserved~"

Kushina giggled, her hands moving even more relentlessly.

"Mmm... don't... Kushina..."

Mikoto's voice grew softer and more alluring, until by the end, she was practically begging.

Amidst the rippling water, two figures were entwined.

In the swirling mist, strange sounds drifted out from time to time.

Watching the two of them frolic from within his home, Xuandou could not help but have his eyes opened.

He never expected that two seemingly proper beauties would be so uninhibited in private!

After playing around for a while, the two finally quieted down.

Mikoto spoke with a faint sigh:

"Kushina, the clan head has been encouraging childbirth lately, and I want to have another child with Fugaku."

"Then just have one."

"Your family isn't short on money; raising one more child shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Mikoto sighed:

"You don't understand. The Police Force has been too busy lately. Fugaku works overtime every day, sometimes not returning until the middle of the night. Even when he does come home, he's exhausted and falls asleep the moment his head hits the pillow... I simply can't bring it up."

Hearing this, Kushina offered some comfort:

"It's alright, there will always be an opportunity."

As she spoke, the smile on Kushina's face faded, and a trace of loneliness appeared in her eyes.

"At least Fugaku comes home no matter how late it is, unlike Minato... whenever he gets busy, he often doesn't even return home at all."

Mikoto was stunned for a moment, then looked up:

"Doesn't Minato know the Flying Thunder God? It should be very convenient for him to get home, right?"

Kushina pursed her lips, her tone filled with grievance:

"But he's always in meetings with those old men, or out on missions. And me? I'm a jinchuriki, I can't just tag along..."

"So every time he returns, I cherish it deeply. I also want to have a child with Minato... but there's just no time."

"The two of us haven't done that in a long time..."

Mikoto said nothing, simply reaching out to hold her hand.

Listening to their conversation, Xuandou fell into deep thought...

In the blink of an eye, eleven months passed in a rush.

Time had arrived at the year 51 of Konoha.

Within this year, the changes in the Uchiha Clan Grounds were visible to the naked eye.

Following the first Indulgence Apartment, four more apartment buildings were completed one after another, arranged neatly in the center of the clan grounds.

The housing problem for over two hundred unmarried youths was solved single-handedly by Xuandou.

The effect of the apartments was immediate.

The young people living there saw each other constantly.

A meeting in the hallway, an encounter in the bathhouse—back and forth, the conversations grew more frequent, and the gazes grew warmer.

Coupled with the fact that these were young people in their prime, loneliness inevitably led to the birth of some stories.

Consequently, at night, strange sounds would always drift from certain rooms, and the others had long since grown accustomed to it.

Add to that the blessing of the Desire Hot Springs.

In the mixed-gender baths, amidst the swirling steam, if someone lingered a glance too long or helped another pass a towel, over time, it became a matter of who was walking home with whom.

With these multiple factors, in less than a year, the Uchiha clan saw the birth of over two hundred newborns in total!

The clan's population finally broke through the three-thousand mark.

Furthermore, it wasn't just the Uchiha.

The entire Konoha experienced a baby boom.

The war had ended, the men had returned home, and the women had welcomed back their husbands.

Although the ninjas still had to go on missions, compared to wartime, they could at least catch their breath.

Thus, the year 51 of Konoha became the true "Year of the Newborn."

Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, and Ino Yamanaka were all born within the same month.

Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and Hinata Hyuga also arrived one after another.

The heirs of the major ninja clans had come into this world in a cluster.

The streets were filled with young mothers pushing baby carriages.

The village had even seen the opening of many new shops selling infant and toddler supplies.

On this day, Xuandou was taking a walk with Kurenai on a path outside the village.

The two walked at a leisurely pace, Kurenai linking her arm with his, occasionally sharing idle chatter.

Suddenly.

"BOOM!"

A thunderous roar erupted from ahead.

Xuandou jerked his head up.

Flames soared into the sky, accompanied by thick plumes of smoke.

He recognized it instantly; it was the Uchiha's Great Fireball.

"Something's happened."

Xuandou patted Kurenai's hand.

"I'm going to take a look."

Kurenai nodded, asking no further questions.

Xuandou's figure flickered as he stepped onto the rooftops and rushed forward.

Halfway there, he spotted three figures sprinting in the same direction.

The leader turned back to look; it was Fugaku.

"What's the situation?"

Xuandou caught up to him.

"A Special Jonin is causing trouble."

Fugaku's expression was grave.

Xuandou nodded, not pressing for more details.

The group landed at a street corner.

A crowd had already gathered around the scene.

Three Uchiha clansmen wearing Police Force vests were pinning a man firmly to the ground.

The man was still struggling, his face pressed against the dirt, cursing incessantly.

Fugaku walked over and looked down at the restrained ninja.

"Take him away."

Two members of the Police Force hauled the man up.

Xuandou let out a sigh of relief.

It seemed the matter had already been resolved.

He was just about to turn and leave.

Suddenly.

"SPLAT!"

An egg smashed against the back of a Police Force member's head.

"All of you Uchiha deserve to die!"
