Chapter 328 Three years have passed in the blink of an eye
Time always slips away quietly.
One month in the ninja world is equivalent to five months in the Sage Village.
Therefore, Uchiha Mitsuru would often take his queen to Sage Village to visit the children during his free time.
His left hand was gently held by Uchiha Mikoto, and his right hand was held by Uzumaki Megumi's hand, while Tsunade walked beside him.
Occasionally they would point to the scenery in the distance and admire it, or occasionally they would chat about their children. The four of them walked along, talking and laughing.
Upon arriving at Fairy Village, they searched for their children among the crowd, their eyes filled with unspoken longing and concern.
"Sasuke...you've grown up!"
Mikoto Uchiha found her son training under the shade of a tree, her voice filled with undisguised tenderness.
She gently pulled her hand away from Uchiha Mitsunori's and walked quickly towards Sasuke. She took out a neatly folded handkerchief from her sleeve and reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "Sasuke, no matter how hard you train, you must take care to rest. Don't overwork yourself."
Sasuke's previously cold gaze softened instantly, and he nodded slightly: "Mother, I understand."
"Sasuke, where's Shiryu?"
Tsunade's gaze swept across the training ground and quickly locked onto Shiryu, who was sparring with Rock Lee.
She smiled and stepped forward, looking at the golden light gathering around her son, and couldn't help but nod: "Not bad, your strength has increased a lot, much stronger than your father was back then."
Upon hearing his mother's voice, Shiryu immediately stopped sparring and ran towards Tsunade.
He wore a bright smile: "Mother, what brings you here? I recently created a new immortal technique: the Lushan Soaring Dragon Strike. I'll demonstrate it for you later!"
Tsunade patted him on the shoulder, her eyes filled with pride.
Huiyi Uzumaki found Karin playing with Hinata Hyuga in the crowd.
She walked over gently and handed her daughter a small basket filled with snacks: "These are red bean cakes I made myself. Share them with your friends. You've been working hard on your spiritual practice lately, so make sure you get plenty of nutrition."
Karin took the basket and linked arms with Huiyi: "Mother, you're so kind! I have something to tell you. My strength has improved again recently..."
The mother and daughter were talking in hushed tones, creating a particularly heartwarming scene.
Uchiha Mitsunori stood not far away, watching the interaction between the three queens and the children, a gentle smile playing on his lips.
The passing teenagers instinctively stopped what they were doing, their eyes following the figures of these families with envy in them.
Naruto scratched his head, watching Mikoto wipe Sasuke's sweat, and couldn't help but sigh, "Sasuke, they're so lucky! Teacher Mitsumine and the princesses are so gentle with the children. It's so nice to see them as a family. I miss my mom and dad!"
Sakura Haruno crossed her arms, her eyes filled with longing: "Yes, Aunt Mikoto is gentle, Lady Tsunade is dashing, Aunt Emi is approachable, and Teacher Mitsubo is charming. When they stand together, they look like figures from a painting."
Hinata Hyuga stood to the side, her cheeks slightly flushed, watching the figure of Mitsuhine, and the scene from her dream involuntarily surfaced in her mind.
As time goes by, seeing the harmonious relationship between the three Uchiha clan members and their three queens, the expectation hidden in my heart seems to become clearer with the passing years.
The most excited person was Yamanaka Ino, after the princess and her entourage had gone far away.
She would then pull the people around her aside and say, "Look at Master Sanfeng, even though he's so busy every day, he's still so gentle with the princesses! I must marry Master Sanfeng someday, become his princess, and live such a warm and loving life!"
Ino would say this several times almost every day.
Nara Shikamaru was already used to it, and each time he would helplessly facepalm: "Ino, can't you be realistic? Lord Mitsumine already has many queens!"
Yamanaka Ino retorted confidently, "That just means Mitsumine-sensei is too outstanding! Besides, I'm still growing up. Once I'm more mature, Mitsumine-sama will definitely notice me!"
Just as Ino was still talking non-stop, she suddenly heard a familiar yet authoritative voice: "Ino, what are you saying?"
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Uchiha Sanfeng who had returned at some point.
Yamanaka Ino's face flushed red instantly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She stammered, "M...Mitsubone-sama, I...I didn't say anything."
Uchiha Mitsunori's lips curled into a strange smile: "I heard everything. You want to be my queen?"
Yamanaka Ino wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground, and kept her head down, not daring to look at him.
The people around him were also trying not to laugh, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
At this moment, Tsunade also walked over, chuckling and teasing, "This little girl is quite interesting. Kid, if you really have that kind of interest, you should focus on improving yourself. When you're good enough, maybe this big pervert will actually start to consider it!"
Upon hearing this, Yamanaka Ino's eyes rekindled with hope, and she nodded vigorously: "Lady Tsunade, I will definitely do my best!"
At this moment, Uchiha Mitsunori's mind-reading ability was not turned off.
The unspoken thoughts of the girls were clearly transmitted into his senses.
Kurama Yakumo stood in the crowd, her fingers tightly twisting the hem of her ninja uniform, her cheeks flushed slightly.
She was experiencing a fierce internal struggle, tinged with longing: "I really like Teacher Mitsumine too. He's gentle yet strong, and he's always so patient when guiding my training... But I'm so shy, should I go up and confess? Ino was so brave to say she wanted to be a princess, shouldn't I also muster up the courage to say what's in my heart?"
She secretly glanced at Uchiha Mitsunori, then quickly lowered her head again, her knuckles turning slightly white from gripping her fists so tightly.
After hesitating for a long time, Yakumo Kurama took a deep breath and suddenly raised her head: "Mitsubone-sensei, I like you too! I... I want to become your queen after I graduate!"
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at her in surprise, and her cheeks instantly turned red.
Uchiha Mitsunori paused for a moment, then said gently, "Yakumo, you are very talented, but you are still young and need to grow. Please cherish this sentiment for now, okay?"
His tone was reassuring, not a direct refusal, but it made his current stance clear.
Mikoto Uchiha watched from the side and gently patted Yakumo Kurama's shoulder, signaling her not to be too nervous.
Then, she smiled gently and said, "Sanfeng, it seems you're quite popular with little girls!"
Hinata Hyuga witnessed all of this, and her heart began to race.
She glanced furtively at Uchiha Mitsumine, her heart filled with hesitation, a mix of conflict and struggle: "Yakumo and Ino are so brave, able to express their feelings... I like Mitsumine-sensei too... But the Hyuga clan's etiquette is so strict. My father taught me from a young age to be dignified and self-possessed. If I confess, will it bring shame to the clan? Will it put my teacher in a difficult position?"
Her fingers repeatedly rubbed her sleeve, swallowing back the words "I like you too."
He stood by Hinata's side every day, witnessing both her inner turmoil and Yakumo's courage.
A thought crossed her mind: "Teacher Mitsumine is truly outstanding. Not only is he incredibly strong, but he's also so kind to everyone. No wonder everyone likes him... It's a pity he already has several consorts, including Aunt Mikoto, Lady Tsunade, and Aunt Megumi. If he were still single, maybe I would have mustered up the courage to give it a try!"
Tian Tian gently shook her head, suppressing the thought.
Inuzuka Hana squatted on the ground, stroking the ninja dog's head while secretly observing it.
She thought to herself, "Mr. Sanfeng is truly amazing. He's so gentle, responsible, and loves his family so much... I want to find a man as outstanding as him someday!"
......
The calendar of the ninja world is torn page by page.
More than seven months have passed in the ninja world, but more than three years have passed in Sage Village.
The boys and girls of yesteryear have shed their childishness, their figures have become more upright, and their temperament has undergone a dramatic transformation.
