Then she shouted towards the courtyard wall, "And you guys! As Uchiha, don't you feel ashamed to eavesdrop here?!"
The few people outside the courtyard flinched in fright and immediately scattered and fled.
"Oh, disperse, disperse..."
"Little Karin is angry, hehe."
"Let's get out of here."
[Oh my god, this is the legendary love filter!]
[Nonsense, Karin is naturally this beautiful!]
[Aburame Tsuku looks quite handsome without his sunglasses, his green eyes are so pretty.]
[Brother, you are really brave, so brave.]
[Aburame parents: My son went out this morning and got married off??]
[Bad news: Son eloped; Good news: Married an Uchiha.]
[Aburame parents: Then it's fine.]
[Karin: Keep your voice down! Is this glorious!!]
[Hahahahaha everyone is so cute.]
[They're like those mischievous kids near my house, always playing little pranks.]
After chasing away the neighbors, Karin looked at the trembling Aburame Tsuku and couldn't help but laugh, her hand continuously patting his shoulder.
"Hahahahahahaha... You, you're really quite clumsy... Hahahahaha..."
With that laugh, Aburame Tsuku, feeling even more uncertain, was almost in tears, wishing he could bury his head in his chest.
Then he felt his hand empty, and looking up, he saw that Karin had taken the bouquet and was deliberately waving it in front of him.
"I'll take the flowers for now."
Karin smiled at him, a hint of crimson still on her face, whether from laughing or embarrassment, he couldn't tell.
"Then, then we..."
Aburame Tsuku's eyes lit up, and he started to stutter again in his excitement.
"Hmph," Karin turned and walked into the house, inviting him in for breakfast, "As for the matter of being adopted into the family, we'll see how you perform in the future ~"
"Okay!"

Like the audience, Naraku, despite all his calculations, never expected that it would be an Aburame who took the lead, becoming the first person to successfully achieve a mutual relationship with an Uchiha after the reforms.
An Aburame and an Uchiha child, if they could inherit insect manipulation techniques and awaken the Sharingan, it would be really cool.
Naraku stroked his chin, deciding that after they got married and had children, he would try to use Pseudo-Izanagi: Time Reversal Modification to increase the child's awakening probability.
It would be really fun!
—
The scene shifted, and Karin and Tsuku, now a couple, frequently showed affection during missions without realizing it, making Nagafuji Yuichi sick of their public displays of affection, and he suddenly felt a bit of regret.
--Why did I meddle and provoke Aburame Tsuku, that blockhead, to confess to Karin?
--In the end, I'm the one suffering.
--Damn it! On the day you two get married, I'll eat a whole table by myself! I'll eat you both out of house and home!
The single dog roared in his heart with resentment.
[Nagafuji, I admit I misunderstood you, you're a true brother!]
[I also misunderstood Nagafuji, I thought there would be a dramatic love triangle.]
[Tsuku: You're not allowed to steal my wife; Yuichi:... (speechless)]
[Immeasurable merit, wingman brother!]
[We'll definitely set a separate table for you at the wedding.]
Further on, Hiruzen Sarutobi, seeing that he couldn't stop it, simply went with the flow, leveraging some goodwill for various Ninja Clans.
Thus, the Sarutobi Clan, unwilling to be outdone, joined forces with the Mitokado Clan and the Koharu Clan to join the ranks of those pursuing the Uchiha.
However, the results were minimal.
Every Uchiha disliked the family members of the Konoha F4, and would rather walk around them, leading to young people complaining bitterly about their clan leaders' past actions.
[Sarutobi: If you can't beat them, join them.]
[I guess no Uchiha would like that.]
[Only when retribution falls upon themselves do they feel the pain. Serves them right.]
[Shimura Clan: We are wronged! At the meeting, the Shimura were one of the clans who strongly agreed! Wuwuwu...]
[Don't cry, it's all debt left by your ancestors, hehe.]
At the end of the last episode, with two or three minutes remaining, it was finally time for the Uchiha who had gone to the Matsukata Family as guards to appear.
Even Matsukata Seigou, who was not a Ninja, could see that compared to the Rogue Ninja his family had gathered, the Uchiha, from a great Ninja Clan, were disciplined and appeared more elite.
He spoke with many probing questions, but Uchiha Fūyō, who was responsible for the handover, was impeccable, not revealing a single flaw.
[The difference between an elite army and a ragtag bunch.]
[To be honest, the quality of awakened Sharingan Uchiha is formidable throughout the entire Ninja World.]
[Good heavens, fourteen Uchiha?!]
[What kind of secret deal did Fugaku and Matsukata make? He's willing to part with this much?!]
[Did they guess it was Naraku after all?]
[The unspoken understanding between two smart people.]
[If Matsukata goes a step further, then the Uchiha would be... Hiss, I dare not imagine, I dare not imagine.]
[Uchiha: Your Majesty, it's cold, put on more clothes.]
[Matsukata: Alas, my dear minister has truly caused me much trouble.]
[I'm dying of laughter, what Chenqiao Mutiny.]

The latest episode ended, and Naraku checked his popularity points. As expected, the income was not as much as before, with only a meager ten to twenty thousand gained.
However, something is better than nothing.
He closed the website and scoured the forums.
Various prominent users' plot threads were predicting whether Iwagakure or Kumogakure would win, and the netizens below were arguing fiercely, roughly divided into Iwagakure and Kumogakure factions, neither side willing to concede to the other.
The fanfiction section was consistently active, providing him with much mental sustenance, leading him to read until the late hours of the night.
Naraku felt that he couldn't blame his lack of self-control for staying up late; the fanfiction section was simply too exciting.
Not only were there many new excellent fanfictions, but artists also flocked, producing exquisitely crafted and heartfelt secondary creations, fan art, and hand-drawn animations, making it impossible to look away.
Especially the artist named "Chub Mackerel," who enthusiastically fulfilled everyone's wish by drawing a high-definition image of Naraku as an adult, covered in sealing talismans.
With such technique and highlights, Naraku genuinely suspected that Chub Mackerel might have taken up some sideline studies during this period; otherwise, how could she draw something so indecent (but beautifully done)?
The netizens downstairs also treated each other like family, their underwear flying everywhere, splattering Naraku's face.
There was also a girl who said something like, "Despite my best efforts, I still made a mistake with adult Naraku," and other scandalous remarks, followed by dozens of replies like "It's human nature," "Not enough effort," "Not a mistake"... various popular memes that made him really struggle to keep a straight face, and the more he watched, the more hooked he became...
