Flame Formation~

The sun sank in the west, and a day quietly passed as they completed missions!

At the Hokage office building~

Uchiha Lei, Kushina Uzumaki, and Uchiha Mikoto had just turned in their mission at the mission hall!

Now it was time for the three of them to part~

Seeing the expectant looks on Kushina Uzumaki's and Uchiha Mikoto's faces, Uchiha Lei found it hard to choose!

One was Kushina, the birth mother of Naruto Uzumaki, the future reincarnation of Asura in the story!

The other was Mikoto, the birth mother of Sasuke Uchiha, the future reincarnation of Indra in the story!

Both were important characters for plundering missions, but what I lack is a trump card like the Mangekyō Sharingan!

Sorry, Kushina...

Uchiha Lei walked over to Uchiha Mikoto's side and gently consoled the miserable-looking Kushina Uzumaki:

"Kushina, congratulations on becoming a Genin. I'll go rest at your place tomorrow, all right?"

Hearing Uchiha Lei's congratulations, Kushina Uzumaki felt much better. She smiled and nodded in agreement:

"All right, Lei. Then let's meet here again tomorrow at nine!"

"Mm, see you tomorrow, Kushina!"

Uchiha Lei said goodbye to Kushina Uzumaki. After watching her walk away and disappear, he turned around with a smile and offered his congratulations again:

"Mikoto, congratulations on becoming a Genin, too!"

"Lei, thank you!"

Uchiha Mikoto walked up to Uchiha Lei, tilted her head up toward his face, and pressed her pale red lips briefly against his. Then she stood properly and congratulated him:

"Lei, congratulations on becoming a Genin!"

"Thank you, Mikoto!"

In a very good mood, Uchiha Lei wrapped his left arm around Uchiha Mikoto's slender waist. His right hand blurred through hand seals, and he vanished from the spot with the Body Flicker Technique, heading toward the Uchiha Clan Compound!

The Uchiha Clan Compound~

At Uchiha Lei's home~

Having heard that Uchiha Lei and Uchiha Mikoto had both graduated and been assigned to the same team, Uchiha Miko and her husband, Uchiha Yama, had come to Lei's house early to prepare a celebratory dinner!

At the wooden table in the living room~

The dishes on the wooden table included braised pork, steamed fish, fish-fragrant shredded pork, sushi, salmon slices, pork slices in spicy broth, oil-braised prawns, a large pork knuckle, and sweet fruit soup!

Because Uchiha Lei mostly liked stir-fried dishes, Uchiha Miko had deliberately made them to celebrate Lei's and Mikoto's graduation!

Four sets of tableware had also been placed around the table!

Seated opposite the door was the sturdily built Uchiha Yama, wearing a dark blue kimono!

Seated on the right side of the wooden table was the full-figured Uchiha Miko, wearing an ivory kimono!

With a whoosh~

Uchiha Lei brought Uchiha Mikoto into the room with the Body Flicker Technique. He then released her slender waist with his left arm, walked over to the seat opposite Uchiha Yama, and casually sat down!

Uchiha Mikoto went to the left side, facing her mother, Uchiha Miko. Her fair hands lightly smoothed the hem of her ninja outfit, and she elegantly knelt on the floor!

Seeing that everyone had arrived, and that his daughter and Uchiha Lei were both wearing Konoha Genin forehead protectors, Uchiha Yama showed a rare smile. He turned to exchange a glance with his wife, and the two offered their congratulations in unison:

"Lei, Mikoto, congratulations on becoming Genin!"

"Thank you!"

Uchiha Lei and Uchiha Mikoto thanked them in unison!

Then Uchiha Yama reached into his clothing and took out a scroll. He pushed it across the table to Uchiha Lei and introduced it with a smile:

"Lei, this is the Flame Formation. Consider it your graduation gift. I hope you won't turn your nose up at it!"

"How could I? Thank you, Father-in-law!"

Uchiha Lei deliberately emphasized the last word. He picked up the scroll with both hands and opened it, memorizing the specific instructions for using the Flame Formation and its ninjutsu hand seals!

When he opened the system space with his consciousness and checked, the Flame Formation's information was indeed already there. All that remained was to practice it a few more times to master this exclusive barrier ninjutsu!

Uchiha Lei tucked the Flame Formation into his clothing and put it away in his storage space!

The storage space was a function the system had recently awakened, with a capacity of one million cubic meters. Aside from being unable to store living things, everything placed inside remained exactly as it had been at the moment it was stored-a truly essential function for storing supplies!

Hearing Uchiha Lei call her husband Father-in-law without addressing her, Uchiha Miko pursed her pale red lips and gently reminded him:

"Lei, your mother-in-law hasn't given you anything, but I'll teach Mikoto to be a good wife!"

Hearing the jealousy in his mother-in-law's voice, Uchiha Lei immediately gave her a sunny smile and thanked her softly:

"Thank you, Mother-in-law, for teaching Mikoto!"

"Father, Mother, where's my gift?"

Uchiha Mikoto was a little jealous. Her cheeks puffed out, and she pouted her little pale red lips, feeling somewhat angry!

Hearing her daughter speak so disrespectfully, Uchiha Miko gently reprimanded her:

"Mikoto, you're about to become a wife. Mind your manners!"

"That's right, Mikoto. Haven't we prepared this dinner for you two? You should listen to your mother more!"

Uchiha Yama echoed her words with a stern expression!

Seeing that the mood at dinner was turning sour, Uchiha Lei reached out and tugged Mikoto's hand, reminding her quietly:

"Mikoto, stop talking. I'll give you your gift tonight!"

"All right, I understand, Father, Mother. I'll mind my manners more!"

Uchiha Mikoto took the initiative to apologize, then turned to look at Uchiha Lei expectantly!

Then, at Uchiha Yama's signal, the four of them began that day's graduation dinner!

It was not until nine that evening that Uchiha Miko left, supporting her drunken husband, Uchiha Yama!

Once her parents had left, Uchiha Mikoto immediately closed the door. Turning around and rubbing her fair hands together, she asked with a smile:

"Lei, where's my gift?"

"Inside my clothes. Take it yourself!"

Uchiha Lei took three hundred thousand ryō out of his storage space and placed it inside his clothing, quietly waiting for Mikoto to take out the stacks of banknotes!

Uchiha Mikoto hurried up to Uchiha Lei, reached her fair hands into Chiya Rai's clothing, and took out stack after stack of banknotes. She placed them on the floor and counted them-exactly three hundred thousand ryō!

Uchiha Mikoto's little mouth opened into an O in surprise, and she asked quietly:

"Lei, where did you get so much money? Where did you steal it?"

"I earned it myself. Mikoto, don't you want it?"

As Uchiha Lei spoke, he reached out to take the banknotes back!

But Uchiha Mikoto bent forward to stop him, the snow-white skin at the front of her body trembling. Her fair arms encircled the banknotes in front of her, and she watched Uchiha Lei warily as she said softly:

"This is my graduation gift, and it's also security for our future life. I'd better keep it!"

"Mm, you're right!"

Uchiha Lei was already startled by the sight of Uchiha Mikoto's voluptuous figure. A faint blush rose on his fair face, and he gave a light cough to ease the awkwardness:

"Ahem~

Mikoto, you've got your gift now. Let's go back and rest!"

"Wait a moment!"

Uchiha Mikoto sat upright, took a space-time storage scroll out of her clothing with her fair hands, and opened it. She stored the three hundred thousand ryō inside the scroll, only then letting out a relieved breath and saying:

"Let's go, Lei. I'm a little sleepy, too!"

"Mm~"

Uchiha Lei replied softly, wrapped his left hand around Uchiha Mikoto's slender waist, and formed hand seals in an instant with his right hand. Using the Body Flicker Technique, he returned to his own room and sat down beside the large bed!

"Lei, between Lady Tsunade and me, who's your principal wife?"

Uchiha Mikoto suddenly asked, her expression serious as she stared into Uchiha Lei's eyes!

Uchiha Lei knew this was a question requiring an affirmative answer, so he replied directly:

"Of course it's you, Mikoto. Do you even need to ask?"

"But I can't compare to Lady Tsunade. People will definitely criticize me in the future!"

Uchiha Mikoto looked a little dejected and slowly lowered her proud head!

Uchiha Lei cupped Uchiha Mikoto's fair, beautiful face in both hands and answered with a serious expression and a domineering tone:

"Whoever dares criticize you, I'll make them pay!"

Of course, that doesn't include these fiancées or Tsunade!

After silently saying this to himself, Uchiha Lei saw the happy smile spreading across Uchiha Mikoto's face. He pressed his lips against her soft, pale red lips, fell sideways onto the bed, and casually kicked off his shoes!

"Lei, I believe you!"

Uchiha Mikoto answered firmly. She pressed her soft, pale red lips against Uchiha Lei's neck and rested her fair arms against his lower back. Casually kicking off her shoes, she reached her cool hands to the thin quilt, tugged it up, and closed her beautiful eyes!

The system's voice rang out~

[Plundering Uchiha Mikoto's Mangekyō Jade Sharingan (Sasuke Uchiha version) through intimacy. Plunder progress: 5%. Countdown begins...]

Mikoto really is my lucky star. Now I'm a man who'll soon have the Mangekyō Sharingan, too!
