"What are you talking about, Bean!"
Kurenai Yuhi's cheeks flushed a light pink. In truth, she had frequently fantasized about traveling and going on a honeymoon with Raizen.
"It's not like that," Raizen explained truthfully. "There's just a small issue with our business holdings that requires my personal attention."
"I see," Anko chirped. "Fine then! I'll take the mission."
In truth, regardless of whether Raizen was going on a honeymoon or handling business, she would have accepted. Where else could she find a mission this easy that paid so well? She usually earned about 400,000 to 500,000 Ryo a year; these 200,000 Ryo were practically equivalent to half a year's inco for just a few days of work.
For that kind of money, she would have taken the mission even if it involved combat. But protecting children right here in Konoha? As a Jōnin, that was a walk in the park. Was there anyone bold enough to start trouble inside the Hidden Leaf?
Seeing Anko agree, Raizen nodded with a smile. "Good, then it's settled. Anko, you and Kurenai can move into the Uchiha compound tonight."
"What? Little Kurenai is going too?" Anko had assud Raizen only hired her, not realizing Kurenai would be part of the detail.
"Yes, Kurenai will be there as well," Raizen confird.
"That's great! Little Kurenai, we get to do a mission together again!" Anko grinned, slapping Kurenai on the shoulder.
Raizen gave a grand wave of his hand. "Now that business is settled, let's eat! Otherwise, the food will get cold."
"Boss Raizen, did you really make all of this?" Anko asked, mid-chew, savoring the flavors.
"I did," Raizen nodded.
"Boss, you're impressively capable," Anko praised with a smirk. "A tiger in the bedroom and a chef in the kitchen. Truly top-tier!"
"What are you saying, Bean?!" Kurenai shot Anko a look of exasperation.
Raizen laughed. "Hahaha! Naturally. A man has to be capable to get ahead, right?"
"This is so good... I have to eat more!" Anko stuffed her face. "I just realized there are things in this world better than sweets and dango. Or rather, it's because Boss Raizen is the one cooking."
Raizen smiled. "If you like it, eat your fill. If it's not enough, I'll make more."
"Boss, you're the best. If you ever need anything in the future, just give the word," Anko said happily.
How about helping give birth to a son? Raizen thought to himself. He estimated that if a female Jōnin bore him a child, the resulting ninjutsu reward from the System would be exceptionally powerful. He was very much looking forward to the rewards he'd receive after marrying Kurenai and starting a family with her.
After the al, both won's stomachs were protruding as if they were three months pregnant.
"So full..." Anko groaned, patting her belly while semi-lounging on the sofa. "That was too delicious. It's the first ti I've ever eaten until I was this stuffed."
Kurenai was reclining on the other side, sighing in agreent.
Raizen sat nearby, leisurely brewing so tea. He possessed excellent self-control and hadn't overeaten, stopping at about 70% capacity. This allowed him to enjoy a relaxing post-al cup of tea.
He poured a cup for himself and looked at the two. "Ladies, care for so after-dinner tea?"
"I couldn't possibly drink another drop," Kurenai said, shaking her head.
" neither," Anko echoed.
"More for then." Raizen sat with his legs crossed, sipping his tea and taking in the view of the two beauties. This is the life, he thought.
By evening, Raizen had escorted the two won back to the Uchiha compound.
Upon seeing Raizen return with two beautiful won, Sasuke ran over with a bright, enthusiastic smile. He bowed respectfully to Anko and Kurenai. "Greetings, Aunties! Your nephew welcos you."
This greeting turned Kurenai's face beet-red. Anko, however, looked at Sasuke with great interest, not appearing offended at all.
Raizen gave Sasuke a light tap on the head to correct him. "Don't just shout titles, kid. This is a Special Jōnin I've hired, Anko Mitarashi. She's here specifically to guard our ho."
As for Kurenai, he didn't bother correcting the boy. Since she would officially be his aunt in a short while, there was no harm in Sasuke getting used to the title.
"Greetings, Lady Anko. Greetings, Lady Kurenai." Momoko approached, holding a baby, and gave a slight bow. As a forr Hokage secretary, she recognized both of them, and the feeling was mutual.
"Momoko, is this your baby? Let hold her!" Kurenai's heart lted at the sight of the pink, chubby infant. She looked at the little girl with maternal tenderness.
Raizen had already told Momoko about Kurenai, so Momoko knew she would soon be officially married into the clan. She felt perfectly comfortable handing the child over. Kurenai cradled the baby delicately, her eyes filled with love.
Raizen watched the scene with a satisfied nod. Even Anko was poking the baby's chubby cheeks with interest. This was the little one she'd be protecting for the next few days—truly adorable.
Raizen pulled Momoko aside. "Momoko, I'm heading to the capital tomorrow to handle so matters. Stay inside with the children as much as possible while I'm gone."
"I understand, Raizen-kun," Momoko nodded.
"Anko and Kurenai are trustworthy. If anything happens, follow their lead."
"Understood."
"Uncle, why are you going to the capital?" Sasuke asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
Raizen ruffled his hair. "So bad people took things that belong to us. Uncle has to go teach them a lesson."
Hearing that soone had stolen from them, Sasuke's face contorted with anger. "Uncle, I've already learned the Great Fireball Technique! I can help you punish the bad guys!"
Raizen chuckled. "And how many Great Fireballs can you cast?"
"Um..." Sasuke thought for a second. "One and a half."
Raizen poked his forehead. "Too weak. If you want to help , you need to at least beco a Genin first."
Sasuke's gaze hardened with resolve. "Uncle, I will definitely work hard to beco a Genin and be a big help to you!"
"Hahaha, I'll be waiting for that day."
The next morning, after a quick breakfast, Raizen set off.
Back at the compound, Anko was leisurely finishing her breakfast while watching Momoko feed the baby. When Momoko adjusted her clothing to nurse, Anko's eyes nearly bulged out of her head.
"They're... they're HUGE!"
