Facts proved Sayan was right.
When the people of Roran, standing in the middle of the plaza, saw their Queen appear so intimately alongside the Kazekage of Sunagakure...
Their restless and fearful hearts immediately calmed down.
At the very least, he was now practically family!
Sayan led everyone out of Roran.
Outside the gates, tracked trucks were densely parked.
Yes, trucks. If they could build excavators, surely they could build vehicles?
Once everyone boarded, the convoy headed towards Sunagakure.
"Look! It's the Kazekage-sama returning."
"Ah, as expected of the Kazekage-sama! He's brought back another wife!"
A Sunagakure villager exclaimed upon seeing Sayan and Sara sitting side-by-side in the truck cabin, unsure whether to be happy or jealous.
"Exactly! But if it's the Kazekage-sama, having a few more wives isn't a problem."
"Hahaha, absolutely. The Kazekage-sama has led us to a good life; what's wrong with having a few more wives? Hahaha."
"Right, right, but..."
A few villagers suddenly exchanged glances, their eyebrows raised.
[Oho! Information received successfully!]
"Quick, spread the word! The Kazekage brought back a new lady!"
"What! Spread the word! The Kazekage brought back a new lady!"
"What! Spread the word! The trucks behind the Kazekage are packed full of women!"
"What! Spread the word! The Kazekage brought back a hundred trucks full of wives!"
"What! Spread the word..."
The Kazekage Building.
In the Elder's office.
"Elder Ebizō, these are today's documents for review. I've placed them on your desk."
Ebizō, sitting in his office, took a sip of aged tea, then looked at the newly stacked documents threatening to bury him, and sighed inwardly.
[I should be retired by now, so why am I still working so hard? Is this the price of being single?]
Just recently, my sister used to come help me after dropping her grandson off at school.
But I heard Muyue is pregnant again, and now she's completely forgotten about her precious little brother.
Sigh~~~ So, love really does disappear, doesn't it?
[If the heavens could make me twenty years younger, I would definitely find a wife too!]
[At least...]
[She could bring me food!]
[And if she could help me review documents, that would be even better!]
"Kana!"
"Yes, Elder Ebizō?"
He looked at Uzumaki Kana, who had just delivered the documents, and noticed her bulging belly.
"Kana, you shouldn't be moving these heavy documents while pregnant. You need to rest more!"
"Thank you for your concern, Elder Ebizō, but the Uzumaki clan has a special constitution, so pregnancy doesn't affect me much. Just moving a few documents every day won't cause any trouble."
[Damn it! Did she not understand my hidden meaning?!]
[Is that the point?!]
[My point is for you to stop moving these documents so I can rest!]
"Heh heh! That Sayan, who knows where he's run off to. His own wives are pregnant, yet he keeps running around outside~"
[Don't blame me for being petty, Sayan. I just want a break!]
"It's fine! Sayan-kun runs around to make Sunagakure better; none of us blame him! Besides..."
"Besides what?"
Ebizō, thinking he was about to hear some gossip, quickly asked.
"Besides, if all the documents are handled by Elder Ebizō, Sayan-kun can spend time with us immediately when he returns."
"Elder Ebizō, you wouldn't want to see three pregnant ladies constantly unable to see their husband, right?"
After saying this, Uzumaki Kana looked at Ebizō with pitiful, pleading eyes.
Ebizō: "Heh heh! The inherently evil Uzumaki clan!"
[Just wait. When I get off work, I'm going to adopt a child. Then I'll ask you if you have the heart to leave a child alone at home!]
Just then, a commotion arose outside the window.
Key phrases like 'Kazekage' and 'new lady' vaguely drifted in.
"Heh heh, looks like Sayan is back. And it seems he brought a new member. Kana, why don't you go back and take a look?"
"In that case, Elder Ebizō, please continue your work. I'll head back now."
"Go on. Go on."
"Delightful, truly delightful! Though I can't see the scene in person."
After Kana left, Ebizō's mood instantly brightened.
Just thinking about what Sayan would face when he got home made him review documents faster.
But before long, Ebizō realized something.
"Wait a minute, didn't he just get another wife?"
[Damn him!]
Meanwhile, Sayan, the object of Ebizō's jealousy, had a face as black as charcoal.
Due to the deepening of his fusion, his sensory abilities had been greatly enhanced.
It was safe to say that all of Sunagakure was now within Sayan's sensory range.
If Sayan wanted to know about any action taken in Sunagakure, nothing could be hidden from him.
Especially when people mentioned him, his senses would unconsciously pick up what was happening.
Thus, he clearly knew exactly how the rumors outside had escalated.
[As expected, work is still too easy!]
[The development of Sunagakure is still too slow!]
Noon the next day.
Sayan woke up feeling refreshed.
After returning home yesterday, the four women quickly bonded.
Upon hearing Sara recount her experiences, the other three were filled with righteous indignation.
They prepared to unite against Sayan, intending to make him behave better when he went out in the future.
That night, Sunagakure had rain for the first time in a long while, making everyone happy.
The next morning, thanks to the rain, the weather in Sunagakure was excellent.
Sayan woke up feeling refreshed right at noon.
No one made him lunch today.
After all, he had brought it upon himself.
But the Strongest Kazekage wasn't famous for nothing.
Could he be blamed?
Being strong everywhere is true strength!
He got up.
And started preparing lunch!
What! You ask about Nagato and the others?
Sayan felt that the children in Sunagakure had too little study time.
So, he ordered the schools to build dormitories, and students now slept there directly at night.
Now, students run a lap around Sunagakure promptly at six every morning.
Oh, and because of Sunagakure's rapid development over the past two years, the village has already doubled in size.
After the run, they have morning reading, followed by basic Taijutsu training, then lunch and an afternoon break. In the afternoon, they have Ninjutsu instruction and practice, then dinner, followed by a moral and ideological education class in the evening, and finally, they return to the dorms to sleep.
Doesn't that sound fulfilling?
Of course, Sayan guarantees that there are absolutely no instances of students being unable to wake up early, or being afraid of being disturbed at night.
Absolutely none!
