Master, Please Become a Hokage

Sarutobi Ryo's lips slowly curled up.

He was无比期expecting Naruto's arrival.

With a flicker in his eyes, Sarutobi Ryo closed the door completely behind him.

To ensure Sasuke's safe birth,

And to completely free Mikoto from the shadows of the past, arousing her passion for life.

Sarutobi Ryo decided... to once again unblock her meridians and increase her chakra's activity.

Thus.

Sarutobi Ryo slowly walked over, looking at Mikoto, whose eyebrows twitched slightly in her sleep.

Soon, he summoned the Sarutobi clan's summoning weapon.

Using the weapon to transmit chakra and cast techniques was extremely logical.

But before that, he needed to make Mikoto fall into a complete slumber.

Only then... could he proceed with ease.

Silently contributing, seeking no reward, was what Sarutobi Ryo had in mind, and what he was doing now.

However.

This time, he would make a slight adjustment.

Sarutobi Ryo reached out and touched Mikoto's forehead.

A gentle green chakra entered her fair forehead and penetrated her brain.

Mystical Palm Technique...

This A-rank technique, capable of healing the human body and piecing together broken bones, was more than capable of calming the mind, inducing sleep, and adjusting the body.

As a medical expert who had mastered the Yin Seal,

Sarutobi Ryo was naturally very familiar with this.

Soon, Mikoto's spirit was soothed, and she entered a state of semi-consciousness.

She was asleep, but not completely unconscious.

This state of semi-consciousness easily blurred the lines between dreams and reality.

In other words, Mikoto would have a small part of her consciousness in a semi-awake state... This was the difference this time compared to before.

Watching Mikoto's breathing change and her eyelids begin to flutter,

Sarutobi Ryo slowly withdrew his finger.

After positioning himself, Sarutobi Ryo prepared himself to regulate her chakra.

When the sky turned dark and the stars appeared... the shadows slowly receded.

I don't know how much time had passed.

Dream...

Mikoto, who had had colorful dreams, slowly woke up.

"Haa..."

She first let out a long breath and opened her half-closed eyes.

The sky in front of her was already dark.

This made Mikoto realize the passage of time.

She had slept from daytime until evening.

"Ugh..."

Scenes from her dreams were still flashing through Mikoto's mind.

The various bizarre developments immersed her thoughts in them.

For some reason.

Lord Ryo appeared in her dream.

Moreover, there were... some embarrassing things that happened.

Mikoto, who had only received traditional education, had never browsed things she shouldn't have been exposed to.

When Fugaku was alive, they were just a respectful couple.

But in her dream, it was... completely beyond the norm, beyond her past experiences...

This made Mikoto feel her cheeks burning.

How could she think of such things?

In fact.

This wasn't the first time.

It had happened several times.

In the past, her dreams only felt comfortable, like soaking in a hot bath.

Or like feeling a gentle breeze, making her feel refreshed.

Later...

Her dreams gradually started to become strange.

Or rather, more and more outrageous.

Until this time...

Lord Ryo's figure actually appeared so clearly.

And she was with him...

This was really...

Mikoto slowly got up, intending to turn on the light.

She moved her body while sorting out her thoughts.

However, her body, after sleeping, was very lazy.

It had a kind of languid feeling.

"Ugh..."

Mikoto, whose body felt weak, or rather, a little tired, couldn't help but think of the previous few times, which seemed to be the same.

"What's going on..."

Staring into the darkness.

With the help of the faint light, Mikoto saw her trembling arms.

Her arms were supporting her on the tatami mat.

But she couldn't stop the trembling.

Her body also seemed extremely weak.

It was like... she had worked hard in a field, or had executed a very difficult mission.

Her body was extremely weak.

But... it was also extremely comfortable, with a kind of exhilarating feeling.

Everything corresponded to her dream.

Thinking wildly about these things, Mikoto tried to get up, supporting herself on the wall, and finally stood up little by little.

But her legs couldn't help but tremble, so even walking was a problem...

When had she ever been so weak?

Mikoto was very puzzled.

Could it be that not exercising for a long time would cause this?

She suddenly realized that her skills had regressed too much.

And it was said that the more pregnant a woman was, the more it would consume her body's functions.

Supporting herself on the wall with both hands, Mikoto moved with difficulty.

Finally, she managed to leave the bedroom.

She felt a little better when she got to the living room.

She poured herself a glass of water and drank it.

Mikoto suddenly remembered that it was time to eat.

So, she immediately got up and went outside.

"Miss Aoi, thank you for your hard work..."

As soon as she reached the door, she saw Yamanaka Aoi bringing the food.

"Mm."

Yamanaka Aoi nodded and handed the food to Mikoto.

Watching Mikoto turn and leave, her legs a little wobbly, Yamanaka Aoi's eyes... couldn't help but flicker.

"Could it be... Hehe..."

Yamanaka Aoi guessed something and quickly turned and left.

She didn't care about these things.

Because for her, it was also fun.

But, if things were confirmed, then it would be really interesting...

Over here.

Mikoto, who had returned to the living room, sat there.

Faced with the delicious food, she felt inexplicably full.

It was like... she wasn't hungry at all...

What was going on?

Puzzled, Mikoto stared blankly at the delicious dinner, and the scenes from her dream reappeared in her mind...

Chapter 167. Kushina Pays a Visit, a Lamb in the Tiger's Den

The stars filled the sky.

Sarutobi Ryo sat in the living room drinking tea after dinner.

Time passed little by little, and soon, the uninvited guest he expected came to visit.

When that beautiful head of red hair came into view,

Sarutobi Ryo knew that his plan had succeeded.
