Inside Rōran's royal palace bedchamber, candlelight flickered gently on the gilded candelabra.
Sara's long red hair spread across the velvet pillow, her fair skin glowing with a faint pink hue. Her slender fingers weakly clutched the brocade quilt, her chest heaving violently.
"Shun... you're too intense... I really can't go on..." She murmured intermittently, her voice laced with a sob.
Shun stood by the bed, his black hair falling over his shoulders.
He leaned down and gently kissed Sara's sweaty forehead, whispering, "Rest."
Moonlight streamed through the curtains, casting varying shadows on his sharply defined profile.
Sāra groggily clutched his sleeve and asked, "Are you leaving?"
Shun caressed her burning cheek and said, "I'm going back to Konoha for something, I'll be back soon. Sleep, I'm here."
Sāra's eyelids were already drooping, and she drifted off into a deep sleep.
Shun stood by the window, a bitter smile on his lips.
Although Sāra was a queen, her talent was limited. She currently only had a Genin level physique, and even slightly intense "training" would exhaust her. For the energetic Shun, this was a torment.
...
The night was deep, and Shun stood at the highest point of the royal palace, admiring the night view of Rōran.
Suddenly, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique, instantly teleporting outside the city. His black robe flapped in the wind as he took a deep breath and formed hand signs.
Seraph Form: Activate!
Three pairs of blazing white flame wings suddenly unfurled from his back. Then, he vigorously flapped the three pairs of wings, instantly stirring up a violent current of air that sent the surrounding sand flying.
Boom...
The sound of a sonic boom echoed through the night sky, and Shun's figure instantly broke the sound barrier.
Although many people believed that with the Flying Thunder God Technique, one could teleport infinitely, those who had truly mastered the Ninjutsu were aware of its limitations.
The user's sensory range determines the teleportation distance of Flying Thunder God.
For example, in the original story, Tobirama, limited by his sensory range at the time, was unable to directly teleport from the Land of Lightning back to Konoha, ultimately meeting his end at the hands of Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
For example, Minato , during the Nine-Tails Night, could only teleport the Tailed Beast Ball dozens of kilometers away, and the light of the explosion could still be seen from Konoha. During the Fourth Great Ninja War, when Minato teleported away the Ten-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball, everyone could still see the explosion of the Tailed Beast Ball.
The distance from Konoha to Rōran is over 800 kilometers. Even Shun would need to teleport 12 times consecutively.
On his way back to Konoha, he planned to set some Flying Thunder God markers to facilitate his next visit to Rōran.
...
In the night sky, Shun was like a meteor, flying at high speed.
Suddenly, he spotted the squad led by Minato with Divine Eye. But he did not stop to greet them. Instead, he rapidly flapped his wings, increasing his speed by another thirty percent.
Minato below seemed to sense something and looked up. His gaze was fixed on the white light, which streaked across the sky and instantly vanished at the edge of his vision.
Choza, seeing Minato's movement, also looked up.
He murmured in admiration, "That's Advisor Shun's Seraph Form. That speed... So fast!"
Minato's gaze followed the streaking light, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes. "According to our previous investigation, using this Ninjutsu, one can fly from Konoha to Rōran in two hours. It truly is an admirable Ninjutsu."
Shibi also sighed, "In comparison, we still have to run painstakingly for 24 hours to return to Konoha, the difference is simply too great."
...
At 11 PM, Konoha, Military Police Force.
Shun's figure quietly appeared in the office. Three Shadow Clones were sitting at the desk, bored and playing cards.
"You're finally back, I was dying of boredom." A Shadow Clone said without looking up.
Bang... Bang... Bang...
Then, the three Shadow Clones turned into puffs of smoke and vanished.
Shun rubbed his head, and all the memories instantly flooded into his mind. All the work, intel, and sudden incidents from yesterday to today.
He organized his thoughts. "Hmm, it seems there's nothing major happening in the village."
Then, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return home directly.
...
A cold female voice sounded. "You finally decided to come back?"
Yukari stood at the entrance with her hands on her hips, her long red hair flaring like flames, and her eyes burning with anger.
Shun maintained his composure, asking in a relaxed tone, "Yukari, what's wrong?"
Yukari sneered, reaching out and pinching his ear, "What's wrong? Did you go out messing around again?"
Shun replied without changing his expression, "I'm working."
Yukari clearly didn't believe his nonsense. She narrowed her eyes, her nose twitching slightly. "Working? Then why do you smell of a woman's perfume?"
Shun inwardly cursed, various excuses flashing through his mind, but he found none that made sense. "Yukari, you have to let me explain."
Yukari's Chakra instantly went wild, and the entire house began to shake. "It's not Tsunade-sama's scent. Did you find another woman? Who is it?"
Shun sighed, took a step forward, and pulled her into his arms. "Yukari, I love you, please believe me. I'm going to wash up first, and then I'll explain this to you."
Yukari struggled twice, but in the end, she was held in his arms, only able to glare at him through gritted teeth. "You better give me a reasonable explanation."
...
After washing up, Shun changed into pajamas and returned to the bedroom.
Yukari was sitting by the bed, her eyes slightly red, clearly having cried.
Shun walked over and sat beside her, silent for a moment, then finally spoke, "It's the Queen of Rōran, Sāra."
Yukari's fingers suddenly tightened on the bedsheet: "The queen?"
Shun did not hide anything, simply recounting his experiences in Rōran.
After listening, Yukari's tears silently fell. "Shun, Tsunade-sama is the Hokage, and now there's another queen. Will you not want me anymore in the future?"
Shun frowned, reaching out to wipe away her tears. "What nonsense are you saying?"
Yukari lowered her head, her voice trembling. "I'm scared. If you don't want me anymore, what will I do?"
Shun was silent for a moment, then suddenly reached out, pinched her chin, and kissed her.
His voice was low and firm. "Yukari, listen to me. You are mine, and you always will be."
Yukari stared at him blankly, tears still flowing. "Really?"
"Mm."
She bit her lip, then suddenly threw herself into his arms. "Then, you have to promise me that you won't flirt with other women anymore."
Shun chuckled softly, ruffling her hair. "I'll try."
Yukari suddenly looked up. "You'll try?"
Shun had a smug look on his face. "You know, a man like me is always very popular."
"Shun, you're not sleeping tonight. I'm going to drain you dry."
