Nojuro Ryun channeled his chakra deep into Tenten's body to investigate her condition, and then he felt relieved.
Although this was Tenten's first time, her reaction was much milder compared to Ryun's reaction that day.
Ryun speculated this was because Tenten was a ninja herself, and the increase in her talent was not that large, unlike Ryun who had almost leapt from zero talent to the qualifications of a Chunin.
What Ryun needed to do next was wait for ten minutes.
Ryun shifted his attention back to the previous prompts.
Although the bloodline power simulated this time was relatively poor in terms of the Ninja Eight Attributes values, the boosts to the affection between him and Tenten had hit the bullseye consecutively!
One boost raised Tenten's Strength talent to 7 points. This way, Tenten's use of ninja tools would become more powerful, and she would have strong counterattack capability even when assaulted head-on by ninja.
The other boost enhanced the Space-Time Ninjutsu talent that Ryun valued most, raising Tenten's Space-Time Ninjutsu talent to Advanced level.
What exactly was the standard for Advanced Space-Time talent?
To be honest, Ryun had no concept of it either.
But if Low-level Space-Time talent could make Tenten a somewhat famous mobile warehouse-type ninja.
Then Advanced Space-Time Ninjutsu talent should at least allow her to barely use the Flying Thunder God Technique, right?
Of course, Ryun did not expect this talent alone to reach Namikaze Minato's level, but this was already a huge step closer to the level of the Leaf's Yellow Flash.
What Ryun needed to do next was to simulate with Tenten many times, allowing himself to also possess Advanced Space-Time Ninjutsu talent, and then cultivate Top-level Space-Time Ninjutsu talent with Tenten.
After that, Ryun would specifically practice this ninjutsu in one simulation, then learn from that experience in reality and train diligently. Perhaps before long, Ryun would be able to recreate the name of the Leaf's Yellow Flash.
As for the learning method of the Flying Thunder God Technique, it was naturally not a problem for Ryun.
In a previous simulation, Ryun had become Tsunade's Hokage Advisor.
Therefore, the Scroll of Seals, which was forbidden to ordinary ninja, became ordinary material that Ryun could apply to view at any time.
Although Ryun at that time did not have the time to learn the ninjutsu on it, memorizing it in his head was not a problem. The current Ryun could enter a simulation for reference and learning at any time.
Thinking of this, Ryun couldn't help but take out a kunai from Tenten's waist pouch.
Should he start customizing Flying Thunder God kunai now... Forget it, something that iconic wasn't really suitable for Ryun. If he actually used it, he might be seen as Namikaze Minato's successor.
Although Ryun wanted combat power like Namikaze Minato's, he did not truly want to become a Konoha ninja.
Just like in the previous simulation, once he became a Konoha ninja, he had to accept missions, and ultimately had no choice but to become Tsunade's Hokage Advisor.
Although Ryun in that simulation held a high position and great power, even forcing Danzo to leave, that Ryun was also destined to have little freedom.
When Ryun said he loved freedom by nature, it was not an empty phrase.
It was just that the previous Ryun didn't even have the ability to leave this village and survive, so naturally he wasn't qualified to say such words.
Once Ryun learned the Flying Thunder God Technique, then the time for Ryun to experience a free life in the ninja world would truly not be far away.
Thinking of the wonderful life in the future, a smile tugged at the corner of Ryun's mouth.
He adjusted Tenten's posture, letting her sit on his lap, then gently held her, softly humming the theme song of a TV drama that Tenten would come to like in the future.
And Tenten's condition had now completely stabilized. Her hands subconsciously grasped Ryun's collar, and she murmured something softly.
Judging by her lips, it seemed to be "Tenten."
After a short while, Tenten's body gave a slight shudder.
Ryun stopped humming the song and looked down at Tenten, just meeting her somewhat confused eyes.
"Good morning, Tenten."
"Good morning... Why am I being held by you?"
"Don't like it?"
Tenten didn't answer immediately. Instead, she closed her eyes and said, "Give me ten seconds to figure out if this is a dream."
After saying that, Tenten tightly hugged Ryun, so close that Ryun could hear her heartbeat and breathing, and Tenten's body temperature quickly became scalding hot.
Ten seconds later, Tenten sprang up like a spring, holding her cheeks and saying, "Oh no, it's not a dream..."
"I... you..."
Tenten had already fallen into a state of confusion. Ryun was just about to comfort her.
A series of knocks sounded on the door, and a little girl's voice came through, "Grandma asked me to ask if you need us to prepare lunch for you!"
Tenten woke up as if from a dream and hurriedly said, "No, no need..."
Ryun spoke up at this moment, interrupting, "Please prepare two portions of your special lunch for us. We'd like to taste your grandmother's cooking."
"Okay, guests."
The little girl's voice sounded slightly excited, and then she ran off with happy steps.
With this little interlude, Tenten calmed down a bit.
Only then did Ryun say, "Don't worry, I didn't do anything to you. Even if I want to do something to you in the future, I will ask for your consent first."
Tenten looked back and glared at Ryun.
The usually boisterous and energetic Tenten seemed to have gained a hint of delicate charm at this moment.
"By the way, how do you feel now? Any changes in your body?"
Hearing Ryun mention training, Tenten looked at her hands, then moved her body a bit, and said doubtfully, "It seems... there's no change."
This answer did not surprise Ryun.
The system enhanced a person's talent, and changes in talent could not be instantly reflected in actual strength.
Unless it was a leap from nothing like Ryun's.
"Then why don't you try using your commonly used ninjutsu?"
"Here? It's not very convenient..."
Tenten showed a hint of hesitation, but still picked up a spare scroll nearby and attempted to use a sealing technique.
Then Tenten showed a look of surprise.
A set of ninja tools on the scroll rapidly appeared and disappeared under her hand seals. For Tenten, this process was almost instantaneous, yet she felt her chakra consumption had decreased.
"Ryun!"
Tenten excitedly ran over holding the scroll, directly rushing into Ryun's arms. She looked up, jubilant, and said, "I really seem to have gotten stronger. Your method really works!"
"Of course, would I lie to you?"
Tenten gazed deeply at Ryun, then finally smiled.
The smile looked somewhat silly, but it was filled with Tenten's pure, characteristic emotion.
"Let's go, time for lunch. In the afternoon, we'll go to the training ground to carefully experience your changes."
Saying this, Ryun led the way forward.
"Okay."
Tenten nodded, then naturally hooked her arm through Ryun's, and walked out of the room with him.
"Grandma, grandma, look! I told you they were a couple, and you didn't believe me!"
A little girl with a sprouting topknot pointed excitedly at Ryun and Tenten. It was Kazamatsuri Moegi.
