Naruto: Dual System Power At The Beginning

When Uchiha Idaka and his companions left, Uchiha Ryosuke resumed his earlier training. After finishing the exercises, he felt a bit fatigued and heard the familiar sound of the system attribute notification.

Such training improves attribute points only slightly, and the time it consumes is relatively long. It's not as "efficient" as getting beaten up.

A few minutes of being pummeled accomplishes the same. It seems this system prefers watching him take a beating rather than traditional training. But as long as it increases his physical stats, it's fine. Incremental progress over time will eventually accumulate, and his physical stats will grow stronger.

Currently, his body has likely reached the threshold to start learning the Eight Gates Technique.

Previously, he hadn't asked Might Guy for guidance on the Eight Gates Technique because his physical constitution wasn't strong enough. Even if Guy taught him, he wouldn't have been able to learn it.

Given his current strength, handling Uchiha Idaka wouldn't be easy, which is why he scheduled the fight for seven days later.

He now needed to find time to ask Guy for instruction on the Eight Gates Technique.

On the first day after scheduling the duel with Uchiha Idaka, Ryosuke woke up early to do his daily One Punch Man training, strengthening his physique.

After a thorough midday wash to clean off the dirt and sweat, he took a proper rest.

Balancing work and rest is the best approach, so in the evening, he decided to visit Konoha's central area for a stroll.

The Uchiha compound is located in a remote corner of the village. After a quick wash, Ryosuke briskly walked toward Konoha's bustling streets.

As he passed a small wooden house, a woman in a kimono with crimson eyes was already waiting—Yuhi Kurenai.

Over the past month, Ryosuke had not only been training his body but also casually walking near Kurenai's house in the evenings, taking any opportunity to invite her out.

As a result, his relationship with Kurenai naturally grew closer. At this point, they could be considered friends.

Of course, Ryosuke had his own motives. He hadn't forgotten his other system—having children makes you stronger. Kurenai was naturally his first target. If a girl is willing to go out with you, then the relationship is already on a good track. It just depends on how to move it forward.

Sometimes, the line between friends and lovers is paper-thin. Perhaps all it takes is physical contact to transition from one to the other.

Friendship remains platonic, as light as water. But with physical closeness, emotions can rapidly deepen, paving the way for the final step. Everything would progress naturally.

Seeing the familiar, handsome figure walking toward her, Kurenai's face lit up with a smile.

A month ago, Ryosuke's most notable feature was his good looks. Now, his physique was more robust and well-defined, making him even more attractive.

This was likely the result of training with Might Guy. However, she was relieved Ryosuke hadn't developed the rough, coarse build typical of Guy. Instead, his figure had become more refined and appealing.

Kurenai had grown up without a father, leaving her with few close friends. Many peers didn't mock her openly but still looked at her with subtle disdain, likely because of her family circumstances.

However, Ryosuke never had such an attitude when looking at her. This was one reason she enjoyed going out with him.

After a day's work, evenings at home were a bit lonely. Walking around with Ryosuke and chatting helped alleviate her boredom. Plus, the nighttime scenery in Konoha was quite beautiful.

By this time, Ryosuke had already approached Kurenai, smiling as he asked, "Would you like to go for a walk?"

"Sure!" Kurenai naturally agreed. After all, she had been waiting here precisely for Ryosuke to invite her.

The two strolled leisurely along Konoha's streets. Kurenai noticed an aura about Ryosuke that was subtly attracting her, making her feel unusually comfortable and content.

However, since the street was crowded with people, she was too shy to move too close to him.

They didn't eat anything as they walked, choosing instead to chat casually and wander aimlessly. But as they walked further, the number of people on the street gradually thinned.

Unable to help herself, Kurenai suddenly extended her hands and hugged Ryosuke's arm tightly. An intense masculine aura washed over her, making her feel both relaxed and exhilarated.

At the same time, Kurenai carefully observed Ryosuke's expression, worried he might be displeased.

Ryosuke was surprised by Kurenai's action. Initially, he had planned to make the first move and initiate some physical contact to speed up their relationship. But he hadn't expected her to act first. This caught him off guard but also thrilled him.

Kurenai, noticing Ryosuke's lack of resistance, breathed a sigh of relief.

Even she was startled by her boldness. The truth was that his presence had such a strong appeal, she couldn't help but act on impulse.

Feeling that the street was still somewhat public and inconvenient, Ryosuke decided to lead Kurenai to a nearby secluded grove.

Kurenai followed Ryosuke into the wooded area. The trees were dense, and the streetlights didn't reach here, making it a quiet, rarely visited spot.

At that moment, Kurenai clung to Ryosuke's arm, still immersed in his intoxicating scent. She felt both euphoric and slightly nervous.

Seeing this, Ryosuke decided to take action. Turning around, he embraced Kurenai tightly.

Her eyes widened in surprise. Her first kiss was gone.

Although startled at first, Kurenai soon felt a unique and pleasant sensation. Even more than Ryosuke's aura, this touch captivated her. If it was Ryosuke, she didn't mind this kind of contact.

Feeling shy, she eventually closed her eyes and surrendered to the moment. Compared to Asuma, Ryosuke smelled infinitely better.

Whenever Asuma got close to her, the smell of tobacco made her uncomfortable. But not Ryosuke. His presence was magnetic.

———

After some time, Kurenai began noticing a distinct change in her body, which left her slightly astonished. While a bit unexpected, it made her feel even more at ease.

'He sure likes touching there…' Kurenai thought with a tinge of embarrassment and delight.

Ryosuke, for his part, was equally exhilarated. Maybe it was her being drawn to his scent, but he was also deeply attracted to her. Her scent was sweet, her body soft and warm. She was indeed remarkable.

His hands instinctively sought out more direct contact, reveling in her softness.

Eventually, Ryosuke decided to take things a step further. After all, he needed to have children to unlock rewards. And since they were already in the grove... why not finish it all in one go?

———

As Kurenai was immersed in Ryosuke's scent, a stronger sensation suddenly hit her.

This one was far more intense than before, instantly causing her eyes to widen. She couldn't handle it.

Having never experienced anything like this, she instinctively reached out to stop him, her voice trembling as she said, "Ryosuke, I'm not ready yet."

By now, Ryosuke's masculine aura had grown even stronger.

Kurenai, no longer a young girl, understood full well what would happen next between a man and a woman.

While she felt a bit excited, she truly wasn't ready. Things were moving too fast between them.
