At this moment, Anko actually felt a trace of joy in her heart.
'If it's Lord Ryōsuke, then there's no problem at all.'
Lord Ryōsuke had always been her idol. He was the strongest in the village, handsome, and possessed an excellent temperament.
'But how did I end up doing this kind of thing with Lord Ryōsuke?'
Closing her eyes, she recalled the events of last night. She had been drinking with Lord Ryōsuke.
It seemed Lord Ryōsuke had escorted her home, and she had pointed out the way for him.
Then, Lord Ryōsuke had handed her a cup of tea, and she had actually thrown herself at him.
'How did this happen? I was actually the one who made the move. But why do I feel so lucky?'
'If it hadn't happened like this, I probably would never have had the chance to be intimate with a man like him in my entire life.'
'I didn't lose out at all.'
Ryōsuke woke up at this time as well.
Although Anko didn't make much noise beside him, he still noticed she was awake.
He spoke up.
"You should remember what was said last night, right?"
Anko's heart skipped a beat. Lord Ryōsuke was definitely talking to her.
"What is Lord Ryōsuke referring to?"
"Naturally, it's about you becoming my woman from now on," Ryōsuke stated.
Anko was truly worthy of being Orochimaru's disciple. As a woman who played with snakes, her skills in bed were quite something.
He was very satisfied.
Anko felt a bit confused.
She couldn't quite remember.
'Did I vaguely say something like that to Lord Ryōsuke last night?'
However, such details were no longer important.
"Lord Ryōsuke, haven't I already become your woman?"
Ryōsuke felt a bit relieved; it seemed Anko did want to be his woman after all.
Just as he had thought.
The words a person spoke when drunk revealed their true affections.
In that case, there was no burden to worry about.
A month later, thanks to Ryōsuke's diligent efforts.
Anko naturally found herself pregnant.
As for her ninja duties, all of her missions were put on hold.
Ryōsuke covered all her living expenses.
Since she was his woman, having his child was the top priority.
Anko naturally didn't object; instead, she gently stroked her belly.
She had always been an orphan. Her parents were Leaf Village ninjas, but they had both died on the battlefield when she was young.
She became an orphan from then on. Later, she became Orochimaru's disciple, but her teacher ultimately abandoned her as well.
Being Orochimaru's disciple, her teacher's defection had caused her immense trouble, leaving her largely isolated wherever she went.
It had only gotten a bit better in recent years.
Now, receiving Ryōsuke's doting affection, she felt incredibly happy.
She was a woman, after all.
Ryōsuke was so powerful that she felt there was no way he would ever betray her.
She naturally knew some of the rumors about Ryōsuke circulating in the village.
Even though he had other women, she wasn't worried in the slightest.
Ryōsuke was so strong that having multiple women was the only way to satisfy him.
And now she had even less reason to worry, as she was carrying Ryōsuke's child in her womb.
Their relationship was now more secure than ever.
Seven months later, Ryōsuke's partners began a baby boom.
The first to give birth was Yūhi Kurenai. It was another boy, and Ryōsuke naturally named him Kyūki.
Ryōsuke also received a Precious Treasure Chest from the system's Many Children, Many Blessings feature, which yielded 1 Kakashi-unit of chakra.
'This reward is a bit ordinary, isn't it?'
'Still, it's better than nothing.'
A few days later, Tsunade and Shizune also went into labor.
One boy and one girl.
Tsunade's child was named Jūki, and Shizune's child was named Jūichika.
Tsunade was naturally overjoyed. Having another child meant the Senju Clan had gained another direct bloodline descendant.
Although the child didn't bear the Senju surname, he was still fundamentally of the Senju Clan's direct bloodline.
She felt like she could still have more children; the Senju Clan was truly beginning to prosper again.
Meanwhile, although Shizune was extremely happy to have a new child.
The name still made her feel a bit depressed.
She had fought to get a name with "ka" in it, so it would at least sound like a girl's name.
Ryōsuke couldn't help it either.
He was going to have even more children in the future. If he didn't name them in numerical order, he wouldn't even know which child was which.
As for Tsunade, being a Kage-level powerhouse, she provided a Gorgeous Treasure Chest. This time, it yielded something incredible: the Sage Body.
Originally, he didn't possess any special constitution; his physical attributes were simply overwhelmingly strong.
Therefore, he was naturally powerful.
Whether it was his strike resistance, recovery speed, or ability to withstand pressure, they were all absurdly high.
Even opening the Seventh Gate of the Eight Inner Gates only brought him a tiny bit of pressure.
He could keep it open for a long time. It was worth noting that his Sixth Gate was already comparable to Might Guy's Eighth Gate.
Opening the Seventh Gate made his combat power three times stronger than the Sixth Gate.
So, if he opened the Seventh Gate, his combat power would be three times that of Might Guy's Eighth Gate.
This threefold increase in combat power didn't just mean he was equal to three Eighth Gate Might Guys.
In reality, the difference was like a Jōnin fighting a Genin.
He felt he could easily take on many of them at once.
That alone showed just how strong he currently was.
If he successfully opened the Eighth Gate, he felt he would have no problem completely obliterating that Otsutsuki God.
And now, he possessed the Sage Body constitution.
The Sage Body was the very symbol of monstrous chakra reserves, as well as immense vitality and healing power.
After accepting the Sage Body reward, Ryōsuke's physical body became even more robust.
The combination of the Sage Body and his original super-strong constitution wasn't as simple as one plus one.
It was an exponential multiplier.
At the very least, it caused his chakra to skyrocket by 100 Kakashi-units, not to mention the immense vitality and super healing power.
Upon receiving the reward, Ryōsuke acted on a whim and immediately began testing it.
He pulled out a kunai and slashed a twenty-centimeter gash across his arm. Before the blood could even well up, the wound had already begun to heal.
It was truly terrifying.
With such a formidable constitution, he felt that fully opening the Eight Inner Gates wouldn't be a problem at all.
Naturally, Ryōsuke found a secluded spot to fully open the Eight Inner Gates.
This was the final gate, the one that caused the heart to go into overdrive.
Upon opening the Eighth Gate, Ryōsuke immediately felt his heart pounding violently.
Rampaging chakra began to permeate his entire body, surging with extreme power.
Red veins bulged across his body, and his skin became engorged with blood, turning his entire form a deep crimson.
His body was indeed under a mountain of pressure, but he withstood it all.
Furthermore, he was still able to move freely.
He estimated that he could only maintain this state for about half an hour.
But who could possibly survive for half an hour against him in this state?
Opening the Eighth Gate made him three times stronger than the Seventh Gate.
That meant his current strength was more than nine times that of Might Guy's Eighth Gate.
More than nine times.
The numbers alone were staggering.
If Might Guy could send a Tailed Beast flying with a single punch.
Then Ryōsuke could blast away the Ten-Tails with a single punch.
Tsunade had truly brought him something incredible this time.
Otherwise, relying solely on his previous constitution to open the Eighth Gate would have been extremely taxing.
He probably would have only been able to sustain it without injury for a few minutes, which wouldn't have been satisfying enough.
