"Nothing! Nothing!" Kairen released green chakra from his hands.
He gently wiped over the three claw marks, and slowly, the wound on Uchiha Mikoto's calf faded away just like that.
"Alright, madam, this will do!"
"Oh! Thank you, Kairen-kun!"
"Madam, no need to thank me!"
Kairen smiled, face full of sincerity.
Uchiha Mikoto tried to stand, but her leg was so numb that she stumbled and fell.
"Madam, careful!"
Kairen caught Uchiha Mikoto directly. A beauty falling into his arms, an enticing fragrance rushing into his nose—add a bit of sashimi and she could be served at the table.
A wave of masculine aura hit her; Uchiha Mikoto's cheeks flushed. Since her marriage, this was the first time she had been so close to another man.
Next, her dignity as a mature woman kicked in and she pushed Kairen away with one hand:
"Kairen-kun, I'm sorry."
Kairen shook his head. "It's nothing, madam."
Uchiha Mikoto was about to say something when she suddenly heard urgent footsteps. Uchiha Fugaku appeared at the doorway.
He looked at Kairen. "Kairen-kun, I've already called everyone. They're outside."
Kairen smiled. "Is that so? I'll be right there."
He turned, following Uchiha Fugaku as they slowly stepped outside.
Uchiha Mikoto gave Kairen one last glance, then went to prepare dinner, but the flutter in her heart reappeared. She couldn't help thinking more.
After being a housewife for so many years, she couldn't remember the last time her maiden's heart beat like it did just now.
...
Kairen and Uchiha Fugaku walked out of the courtyard gate, only to be surrounded by about a hundred people—the entire Uchiha clan's shinobi were basically all present.
Everyone was noisy.
Three Uchiha elders stared at Kairen and all activated their Sharingan, their Jōnin-level aura pressing down on him.
Kairen folded his arms, glanced at the three, and suddenly burst out with red Chakra.
"Nine-Tails Chakra!!"
The three Uchiha elders backed away repeatedly, no longer daring to test Kairen.
The Uchiha Great Elder smiled kindly at Kairen.
"Kairen-dono, I heard you can regenerate severed limbs?"
Kairen turned his eyes toward the Great Elder's shoulder.
Uchiha Fugaku's eyes widened instantly, remembering Kairen's savagery earlier. This guy chopped people without hesitation.
Fugaku immediately stepped forward to speak on Kairen's behalf:
"I personally guarantee Kairen-kun's medical ability is extremely strong. A severed arm regenerates instantly."
Everyone had their doubts. Such medical arts were unheard of. And with the Senju clan crest behind Kairen, it was already generous not to kill him on sight—how could they believe him?
Especially the shinobi who had lost arms and legs. Their lives were already reduced to mere survival; their eyes had gone numb, not even blinking at this scene. All that remained in their hearts were poetry and distant dreams.
Kairen chuckled, then walked to a one-armed Uchiha clan shinobi. He placed a hand on the man's shoulder, green chakra appearing.
In the time of two breaths, the stump's flesh squirmed.
The surrounding Uchiha widened their eyes. This visible regeneration speed did not lie.
With two soft tearing sounds, a new arm grew out from the stump.
The one-armed shinobi was filled with disbelief, followed by joy, excitement, and a racing heartbeat...
His emotions were indescribable. He knelt before Kairen, thanking him repeatedly.
Kairen waved his hand and addressed the Uchiha clan shinobi: "Now, am I still lying?!"
The Uchiha Great Elder wiped a smile across his face, bowing and apologizing nonstop.
"Forgive us. My Uchiha clansmen were blind to your greatness, Kairen-dono."
"We promise, we will fully support Princess Tsunade."
Kairen nodded, then healed the rest of the disabled Uchiha shinobi.
Among them was a Uchiha Jōnin named Uchiha Anzai. When he was young, an explosive tag got lodged between his legs, and he had been single into his forties because of it.
Kairen placed a hand on his shoulder and healed him. Anzai immediately knelt, shouting loyalty over and over. If Kairen refused, he would commit seppuku.
Kairen mused that the Uchiha were truly passionate. Everyone he healed shouted loyalty, only to be dragged back by the elders.
Kairen understood—he was here to secure votes, not poach clan members.
After offering his gratitude, the Great Elder praised Uchiha Fugaku's wisdom. To thank Kairen, he almost offered Mikoto to him.
Of course, that was just Kairen's imagination.
Night slowly fell. Uchiha Fugaku pulled Kairen home for dinner.
At the table, the Fugaku family knelt properly as they ate.
Kairen tasted Uchiha Mikoto's cooking slowly, then gave her a thumbs up.
"Madam, your cooking is amazing. Fugaku is truly a lucky man. If I had been born ten years earlier, I might've fallen for you too."
"Haha… you flatter me! You flatter me!"
Uchiha Fugaku laughed proudly and added, "Come, come, drink! Drink!"
"Drink, drink…"
Kairen and Fugaku drank heavily. Eventually, both were dead drunk and started playing finger-guessing games.
"Come… come, finger game… finger game… if I win… Mikoto is mine… if I lose… I'll help you take care of your wife and kids…"
"Kai… ren… -kun…" Uchiha Fugaku couldn't hold on and collapsed backward.
Beside them, Mikoto watched Kairen's drunken antics with a smile, not taking his drunken words seriously.
Kairen, drunk, entered the Infinite Resurrection System space. With a flushed face, he slid to the Kekkei genkai section. The Uchiha had been suppressing him with their Sharingan all day; he needed a pair of his own to return the favor.
"Ding!"
"Uchiha Sharingan exchange successful!"
Kairen rolled over on the mat. A pair of blood-red eyes opened slightly, revealing a single tomoe, then two more instantly regenerated.
Kairen's spiritual strength was extremely powerful. Even thousands of shadow clone feedbacks hadn't killed him. After so much training, his mental power far surpassed Uchiha Fugaku's.
The moment he exchanged for the Sharingan, it evolved straight to three tomoe.
Kairen closed his eyes again and began snoring.
After Mikoto helped Fugaku back to bed, she supported Kairen into a guest room.
As they entered, Kairen suddenly wrapped an arm around her waist and kissed her.
Uchiha Mikoto's eyes widened. She looked at Kairen's handsome, heroic face—then all her attention fell upon his eyes.
"Sharingan!!"
