For Pakura, two figures inspired her deepest hatred.
One was Rasa, her former comrade from Sunagakure, who had secretly betrayed her, sending her to Kirigakure to be killed.
The other was the man before her.
On the battlefield, armed with nothing but a sword, he had nearly annihilated her entire unit.
Now, he held her captive, subjecting her to humiliation...
Even now, he refused to spare her any dignity.
Pakura's voice dripped with despair and bitter resentment:
"You're a monster. How could Konoha produce a ninja like you? Cruel, bloodthirsty, and utterly ruthless, you hold no one in respect."
"You casually refer to the Third and Fourth Hokage as 'monkeys' and 'cucks,' showing them no reverence whatsoever."
"You don't act like a Konoha ninja at all."
Hearing her words, Fang Yuan's face lit up not with anger, but with rapturous delight.
You're absolutely right... keep going, don't stop!

After receiving 1,000 Hatred Value from Pakura.
Fang Yuan was overjoyed.
After exploiting Pakura for so long, milking her for Hatred Value, he had amassed at least several hundred thousand points.
Pakura, you're amazing!
But as he mastered increasingly advanced Martial Arts Divine Powers, the Hatred Value required for upgrades skyrocketed. Killing directly would have been far faster.
Too bad the war's over. No chance for large-scale slaughter...
"Pakura, you're truly wonderful. You make all this effort worthwhile." Fang Yuan leaned forward slightly and climbed onto the bed.
"Y-you! What are you doing?!" Panic flashed across Pakura's face. She scrambled backward, her pale back pressed against the wall.
"Heh heh heh, don't you know what I want to do?" Fang Yuan smirked. "After all this time, you still haven't gotten used to it?"
"That's odd. I distinctly remember you being the one who initiated things earlier."
Pakura unconsciously pursed her lips, her delicate face instantly turning crimson.
"Be good. I need to meet with cuck at the Hokage Building soon. Be understanding." Fang Yuan reached out and gently pressed his hand against Pakura's head.
Pakura whimpered helplessly, "You promised you'd help me kill Rasa."
Fang Yuan chuckled softly. "Alright, I promised. Then let's try something new this time..."
Despair etched across Pakura's face as she took a deep breath.
She lowered herself onto her hands and knees...
[Lemon on Pãtreon :)]
...
After his unconventional encounter with Pakura, Fang Yuan left Konoha Prison and headed for the Hokage Building, the iconic centerpiece of Konoha Village.
"Lord Fang Yuan..."
Along the way, the ninjas he encountered bowed respectfully, including several older veterans. Their gazes were peculiar, burning with a mix of fervor, reverence, fear, and even resentment.
"That butcher Fang Yuan is out of prison already?"
"When his teacher Orochimaru defected, why didn't he run away too?"
"He caused the deaths of his comrades on the battlefield. How dare he show his face? Why doesn't he follow Hatake Sakumo's example and kill himself?"
"Well, he did help Konoha end the wars with the Lands of Wind and Water."
"I heard he slaughtered countless enemies on the battlefield."
"I think Lord Fang Yuan is amazing! Not only did he help Konoha end the wars, but he's also so handsome and dashing!"
"Exactly! I even remember him teaching me sword techniques on the battlefield."
"You desk-bound fools who've never seen war have no idea how powerful Lord Fang Yuan truly is."
Fang Yuan maintained a faint smile, paying no mind to the whispers swirling around him. In fact, he secretly hoped these people would hate him even more, eager to accumulate Hatred Value.
He soon arrived at the Hokage Building and headed straight to the Hokage's Office on the top floor. He raised his hand and knocked.
Knock, knock, knock!
"Come in!"
Hearing the voice from inside, Fang Yuan pushed the door open.
The Hokage's Office was simply furnished, containing only a conference table and chairs. Portraits of past Hokage adorned one wall, while a large window offered a view of the plaza below.
Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, sat primly in his chair, his yellow hair giving him the appearance of a well-behaved Chihuahua. He greeted Fang Yuan with a gentle smile.
Also present were three elderly figures: the retired Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had relinquished his authority, and the two Elders, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura.
Lastly, a beautiful young pregnant woman stood there, her fair skin glowing like moonlight.
Fang Yuan's eyes lit up, and he instinctively licked his lips.
It was Uzumaki Kushina.
