Over the following period, his women began giving birth one after another.
The rewards granted by those with Jōnin-level strength were rather ordinary. They were nothing more than stamina, spiritual energy, and chakra attributes—merely minor enhancements for him at his current level.
It really had to be Kage-level women. Tsunade gave birth to another child for him, rewarding him with 100 points of spiritual energy.
Additionally, Yugito Nii also bore him a child, similarly granting him 100 points of spiritual energy. With this, his sensory abilities grew even stronger.
He wasn't sure if this caused a qualitative change in his spiritual energy, but he felt that as long as he focused his senses entirely, nothing within a hundred-mile radius could escape his detection.
Konan, on the other hand, rewarded him with 100 points of endurance, making him even more long-lasting.
This kind of reward was perhaps the best thing for him right now. Endurance was an incredibly practical asset, whether he was dealing with women or men.
After all, Kaguya was incredibly strong. Ryōsuke didn't just have to handle Kaguya, but a whole multitude of women as well.
Of course, Terumī Mei also gave birth, rewarding him with 100 points of chakra. This was decent enough; having a bit more felt quite nice. At the very least, it allowed Ryōsuke to create a clone with 100 Kakashi-units of chakra.
A month later, the Kage of the various villages began arriving at the Leaf Village with their Genin, as the Chūnin Exams were approaching.
The Genin they brought were naturally the strongest in their respective villages. Since the Chūnin Exams were inherently a time for the hidden villages to flex their muscles, the Genin represented the strongest of the new generation and the future of their villages, carrying significant weight.
When they arrived at the Leaf Village, they were all completely shocked.
The outskirts of the Leaf Village had drastically changed. Seeing the vast, fertile plains stretching for miles, planted full of grain and other crops, left them utterly astounded. Was this still the Leaf Village they knew?
They had visited the Leaf Village in the past, and back then, the surroundings were nothing but forests and wilderness. But now, Rasa was looking at an immense abundance of food.
It made him incredibly envious. The Leaf Village was already filthy rich, and now it was even wealthier.
In contrast, the harsh desert environment of his village was far worse. It was the poorest among the Five Great Nations. Not only were water resources scarce, but food was even rarer. They had to rely entirely on imports.
Now, all he could do was watch in helpless envy.
Meanwhile, the other Kage who arrived were equally astonished by the sight.
The Leaf Village had actually transformed into a massive granary. This granary alone was enough to supply the entire Leaf Village, while they still had to bitterly rely on merchants to import and export food.
The changes in the Leaf Village were simply too drastic. It felt as though they had gained a new vitality—a vitality that their own villages lacked.
The ninja from the various villages were assigned to a temporary residential area, while the Daimyō of the various nations were housed in a separate location.
Ryōsuke naturally received the news. It was time for his plan to begin.
He immediately sent someone to invite the most veteran Kage-level figure, Ōnoki, as well as the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, for a meeting. He had not yet revealed his true identity to these two.
Now it was time to issue his orders, and of course, to make Rasa submit.
Ōnoki was highly confused. The strongest person in the shinobi world actually wanted to see him? Naturally, he had to go. He also wanted to see exactly who this strongest person was, and whether he would be as domineering as Uchiha Madara.
Ryōsuke met with Ōnoki in the Night Manor.
"You should still remember me, right?"
Ōnoki was instantly startled. This voice... it sounded familiar.
"Could you be... Lord God King?"
"That's right," Ryōsuke replied with a smile.
Ōnoki was thoroughly shaken to his core. So it was that lord.
He should have guessed it long ago. Aside from that person in the Leaf Village, how could someone so powerful suddenly emerge in the shinobi world?
He felt a bit of bitterness in his heart. To think that he would ultimately be brought under the banner of the Uchiha Clan.
"May I ask what you need of me, My Lord?"
Lord God King had told him early on that he would only be contacted when there was a task. Now that he was being summoned, it had to be for something major.
Ryōsuke said with a smile, "Next, I will gather the Kage of the entire shinobi world to establish the Shinobi Alliance and unify the ninja world. I expect your full support."
Ōnoki's face froze in shock. It was actually something of this magnitude.
"Very well."
He had absolutely no way to resist. He couldn't defeat him, so he could only follow. With this man's methods, unifying the shinobi world didn't seem impossible at all. It was all backed by overwhelming combat power.
He then asked, "I wonder, how is my granddaughter doing?"
"Rest assured, she is doing very well. I'll call her over."
He pulled out a mobile phone and called Kurotsuchi to come over.
"Alright, you can go see her now. Just wait at the door. I still have other guests to invite."
Ōnoki obediently stepped out. He was curious about the device in the lord's hand. To think there was a machine that allowed for such convenient communication. Had the Leaf Village's technology really advanced to this level?
He could feel that massive changes were taking place in Konoha.
Of course, seeing his granddaughter was the priority right now. He hadn't seen her in several years and wondered how she was doing.
After waiting at the door for less than a few minutes, he saw a woman walking over, holding a child.
It was Kurotsuchi, along with her child.
Seeing this, Ōnoki immediately felt a sense of dread.
The image of the cute granddaughter in his memory had completely changed. She now looked like a young wife, a mother.
*'Could the child in her arms be...?'*
A surge of anger instantly welled up in his heart.
*'Is this what you meant by taking good care of her?! His granddaughter had been turned into this!'*
Meanwhile, Kurotsuchi, holding her child, was overjoyed to see her grandfather. She walked over with a bright smile on her face.
When she drew near, Ōnoki let out a cold snort.
"Kurotsuchi, what is the meaning of this? Don't tell me that's your child? Did that lord do something to you?"
Kurotsuchi hurriedly explained, "I did this willingly. The child belongs to Lord God King. I am incredibly happy to be able to bear his child."
Ōnoki was instantly stunned. This child was actually that lord's?
He looked at Kurotsuchi. "Are you sure this was truly voluntary?"
"Yes," Kurotsuchi affirmed.
Of course it was voluntary. Lord God King always exuded a scent that attracted her, leaving her completely infatuated. Being close to him felt incredibly comfortable.
Seeing Kurotsuchi's expression, Ōnoki knew she wasn't lying. He sighed inwardly. Since Kurotsuchi was willing... he wouldn't say anything more about it.
At the end of the day, he understood the youth of today; it was just the freedom to love.
However, knowing the child belonged to that lord did put his mind at ease a bit. In that case, didn't that make him and that lord in-laws?
He felt this was actually great news.
*'Didn't that mean that lord was now one of their own?'*
