80: Konoha 42nd Year, a Beautiful and Warm Weekend

He held the heads of Konan's parents and injected them with the Blacklight Virus.

After successfully saving the lives of Konan's parents,

Joa turned to look at Konan, walking slowly towards her.

He squatted down, smiling as he broke the fingers that were tightly gripping Konan's hair.

Joa casually tossed the half-corpse of the Rock Shinobi aside.

“What You said is not wrong.”

“How about it, do You want to leave here with My Lord?”

Konan looked blankly at Joa, unsure how to answer.

“Konan! You are alright?”

“That's…truly great!”

“Thank You! Great and…”

Hearing the voice, Joa turned his head, raised his index finger to his lips, signaling Konan's parents not to speak much.

Upon seeing this, Konan's parents immediately fell silent.

At this moment, the blank-faced Konan heard the familiar voice, quickly snapped out of it, and turned her head to look behind Joa.

“Dad! Mom!”

“You…You…Wuwuwu!”

Scrambling into her parents' embrace, Konan burst into tears.

Holding their daughter,

The couple looked at Joa with inquiring eyes.

Seeing this, Joa waved his hand and silently mouthed,

“Don't mention My identity.”

Understanding Joa's meaning, the couple nodded heavily, then began to comfort their daughter in their arms.

After crying for a long time, Konan was on the verge of fainting and eventually passed out.

Life's great ups and downs came too quickly.

The pain and despair of losing loved ones, and the joy of reuniting with them after surviving a disaster.

The emotional fluctuations were too great for the young Konan to bear.

“Great…”

“Call Me Your Highness.”

“Your Highness…please let Konan also…”

His gaze fell on the couple who had knelt before him with a thud, and Joa shook his head.

“Not yet, wait until Konan grows up.”

The couple were just ordinary people, clumsy with words, unable to say anything eloquent.

They only knew to thank Joa profusely, constantly kowtowing.

Seeing this, Joa quickly made the couple stand up, telling them to stop kowtowing.

Considering Joa's purpose for this trip, according to the seniority before his transmigration, this couple would be his in-laws.

How could in-laws kowtow to their son-in-law?

He wasn't an emperor who needed a strict hierarchical system to maintain his prestige as a mortal ruler.

Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents, Teacher.

Joa ranked above Heaven; did he need to care about those elaborate formalities?

He brought Konan and her parents back to Konoha Village.

He instructed Hiruzen Sarutobi to arrange identities for them.

Konan, from then on, lived in the Senju Residence.

In the time that followed,

Everything developed according to the predetermined trajectory.

Except for some female characters, who became different from their original counterparts.

There was no other difference.

The Second Ninja World War ended with the rise to fame of the Sannin.

The characters Joa was familiar with also gradually grew up.

Minato fell in love with a girl from the Uzumaki.

And this girl, under Joa's recommendation, became the next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

As for the Yahiko trio after losing Konan…

They would naturally find another girl to replace Konan.

······

Time slowly passed.

Five years later.

Konoha 42nd year.

This year, Tsunade was 32 years old.

Uchiha Mikoto was 18 years old.

Whirlpool Kushina was 15 years old.

Konan was 9 years old.

Early morning, Senju Residence.

Outside Joa's room, Kushina stood by the door with a resentful expression.

She had been kicked out again.

“Hehe, I knew Sister Kushina would definitely be kicked out. Brother Joa won't take You with him until You're 18.”

Hearing Konan's words, Kushina gritted her teeth.

“Damn it! Why can Mikoto?!”

Looking at Kushina, Konan covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

“Hehe, because Sister Mikoto just turned 18 yesterday~”

Konan's strange tone gave Kushina goosebumps all over.

“You brat, You're making fun of Me again!”

“Hmph, don't forget, I'm already 15, I'm ahead of You.”

Konan smiled indifferently at Kushina's words.

Ever since Joa saved her family that night,

She had already regarded Joa as her only god.

Her body, her soul, everything, belonged to god.

What did it matter if it was earlier or later?

Inside the room.

Joa and Tsunade, who had been playing with building blocks all night,

And Uchiha Mikoto, who was playing with building blocks for the first time, were resting tiredly.

“Joa, why has there been no movement in my belly for so many years?”

“...Emm, maybe...the system is incompatible?”

???

Hearing Joa say something she didn't understand again, Tsunade sat up, her face serious.

“Don't You dare! I've checked myself, I'm absolutely fine!”

“It must be Your problem!”

“Today is Saturday, so You'll come with Me to the hospital for a check-up.”

Upon hearing this, Joa refused without thinking.

The supreme black light will going to a male clinic?

Is there a funnier joke than that?

“No! You must go!”

Seeing that Joa remained unmoved, Tsunade changed her tone.

“I'm 32 this year, Joa.”

“Grandma can't even maintain her appearance now.”

“I just want Grandma to see her great-grandson, great-grandson, before she passes away, is that so hard?”

Hearing Tsunade say that,

Joa fell silent.

How could he answer that?

It wasn't time for Hinata to be born yet; if he told Tsunade the truth, what if it affected the birth of Hinata and Hanabi?

It wouldn't be a problem to let Konan know the truth after she came of age; Konan had completely deviated from the original work, was tight-lipped, and especially obedient.

Uchiha Mikoto knowing the truth was also not a problem.

Because Mikoto's personality was completely that of a standard Yamato Nadeshiko, a virtuous wife and good mother.

And she had also completely deviated from the original work.

A few years ago, Joa had already taken Uchiha Mikoto from the Uchiha.

It was very smooth, no one dared to raise any objections.

So, just like telling Konan, telling Mikoto also meant there was no need to worry about changing the plot.

Aside from this, Joa didn't even plan to tell Kushina the truth.

Let alone Tsunade, who held a pivotal position in the original work.

Seeing Joa remain silent, Tsunade busied herself with the building blocks.

Her man didn't want to go to the hospital, so she couldn't force him.

“I refuse to believe I can't get pregnant!”

Outside the door.

Kushina watched Tsunade play with the building blocks again, even pulling Mikoto along, her eyes filled with envy.

She also wanted to play, she also wanted to taste the building blocks.

‘Damn it! I'm so envious of Mikoto!’

Turning her head, Kushina looked at Konan, who also had a thirst for knowledge, and said,

“Watch carefully, learn well.”

“It will be useful when You stack building blocks with Joa in the future.”

Nodding heavily, Konan watched intently, learning seriously.

‘So it can be done this way!’

‘I haven't seen this move before!’

‘How did this action… come together?’

A beautiful and warm weekend.

The whole family didn't go out.

On one side, they were cooped up in the room playing with building blocks and puzzles.

On the other side, they were diligently learning the techniques of stacking building blocks and assembling puzzles.

Everyone was happy and full of anticipation for the future.
