With such a short amount of screen time, even if he had paranoid delusions, he wouldn't have had the chance to show them.
Originally, Rasa didn't need to go through so much trouble to sneak into this secret room, but he decided it was always better to be cautious, just in case.
After summoning the system, Rasa silently spoke in his mind:
"Exchange for ten high-quality favorability fruits."
"Are you sure you want to spend thirty skill points to exchange for ten top-grade favorability fruits?"
"Confirm."
"Exchange successful, 340 skill points remaining."
Rasa thought for a moment before saying quietly in his heart:
"Use two top-grade favorability fruits on Tsunade."
If you asked Rasa who he thought was the most impressive beauty in the Naruto world, the answer would undoubtedly be Tsunade.
It wasn't just because she appeared more often in the story than other kunoichi—it was also because of her… overwhelming figure.
Just thinking of the two basketball-sized breasts hanging from Tsunade's chest made Rasa, still a virgin, feel restless.
He had dreamed of Tsunade many times before, trying out various positions in his imagination, but he never thought he'd actually get the chance to make it real.
In the anime, Tsunade's chest was portrayed as even larger than her head.
How amazing would it be to see that in real life?
Although Rasa was usually a quiet and honest man, enduring silently while being exploited by his former bosses, deep down he was far from innocent. He had devoured countless H-manga and novels.
Just as Rasa was indulging in fantasies of how he might "handle" Tsunade in the future, the cold mechanical voice of the system shattered his daydream.
"Ding, use failed. This system does not work on characters the host has never met in reality."
Hearing the failure notification echo in his head, Rasa frowned, clenched his right fist, and smacked his thigh hard in frustration!
He never expected the system to have such a limitation.
This meant his plan to max out the favorability of the leaders of the other four great ninja villages would have to be abandoned.
Originally, he had intended to use this method to breeze through the five major villages.
Of course, Rasa would never admit that what truly angered him was the fact that his fantasy of remotely controlling Tsunade and making her travel a thousand miles to deliver herself to him had been shattered.
After venting his frustration with a punch to his thigh, Rasa once again whispered silently:
"System, just tell me all the restrictions."
Two minutes later, Rasa nodded slowly as the explanation sank in.
There were two main restrictions on all fruits exchanged through the system.
The first: Rasa could not use the fruit on anyone he had never personally seen.
For example, even though he knew Tsunade's name and appearance, since he had never met her in real life, the fruit wouldn't work.
But as long as he saw her once in reality—even from hundreds of meters away, even just a passing glance—he could use it immediately.
In other words, just one encounter was enough.
The second restriction:
All fruits only worked on women under forty years old, and they were completely ineffective on men.
For instance, if a woman was actually forty-five but still looked like she was in her twenties, the fruit would still work.
But if she appeared older than forty, it wouldn't.
After confirming these conditions, Rasa let out a long breath of relief.
The restrictions were much looser than he'd imagined. The first condition was simple—once he grew strong enough, meeting the women he targeted would be easy, even if only from a distance.
The second restriction wasn't a problem at all.
Rasa had always been a man of appearances, and he freely admitted he was an ordinary, vulgar person.
He had no interest in wasting fruits on men.
And he was even less interested in giving them to women who looked like aunties.
Now that the rules were clear, the question was—who should he use these ten fruits on next?
Rasa thought for a while but couldn't decide. Finally, he asked the system:
"System, do you have a complete list of all the women I can use the fruit on?"
"Host request detected, generating list…"
Seconds later, a list appeared in Rasa's mind:
Pakura, 21 years old, favorability 29
Yasha Rei, 16 years old, favorability 18
Akiyama, 17 years old, favorability 11
...…
...…
Hanori, 26 years old, favorability 10
...…
...…
Ayame, 18 years old, favorability 7
Karura, 20 years old, favorability 3
Looking at the mere ten names, Rasa's mouth twitched. The list was far too short.
Logically, the Hidden Sand Village had thousands of ninja, and even if female ninja were fewer, there should still be hundreds at the very least.
But when Rasa stared at the stone gate in front of him, he had to admit the truth.
In the anime, there weren't many female ninja from the Hidden Sand Village who were even given names.
Even if you counted anime-only characters, there were barely ten.
And most of those were far too young at this point in the timeline.
For example, the sisters Saye and Sana, busty problem-girls, were likely no older than one.
As for other female ninja he had brushed past once or twice, there were certainly more.
But the system must have hidden requirements—that was why they didn't appear on the list.
After figuring this out, Rasa looked over the names again.
Two of them had already been boosted with the doubling fruit, so he didn't need to use it again.
But there were still seven others. If he raised their favorability to 100 and then used the doubling fruit, once midnight passed, the numbers would reach 200 each—adding up to well over 1,000 points.
Although his goal of reaching several thousand points by tomorrow morning wouldn't be possible, breaking past 1,000 skill points was still more than enough to exchange for plenty of valuable things.
Rasa studied the list again, recognizing eight of the names, but one stood out.
Hanori.
He had no memory of this kunoichi at all.
There had never been a female ninja named Hanori in the original work.
In the end, Rasa chuckled to himself.
Perhaps he had glimpsed her from afar once.
Or maybe she had seen him from a distance.
Either way, Rasa quickly distributed the ten favorability fruits.
"Hanori successfully received three high-quality favorability fruits. Favorability now 29!"
"Karura successfully received two high-quality favorability fruits. Favorability now 17!"
"Each of the remaining five, including Ayame, received one fruit each, and their favorability has risen!"
"Total favorability increased by 70 points. Gained 70 skill points."
At that moment, in a comparatively luxurious house in the center of Sunagakure…
Yasha Rei's delicate face was full of worry as she turned to the woman sitting beside her.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
The beautiful woman beside Yasha Rei shook her head in confusion.
Her sandy brown, shoulder-length hair swayed gently as she moved, forming soft waves.
Then she blinked her indigo eyes.
Her usual warm smile returned, but this time there was something strange beneath it—an indescribable emotion.
"It's nothing, Yasha Rei. Let's continue talking about Rasa."
Yasha Rei blinked in surprise.
Just moments ago, her sister had shown no interest in Rasa at all.
Why the sudden change?
The gentle woman didn't explain. She only smiled at her younger sister.
Yasha Rei fidgeted under the pressure of that smile.
Although her sister had never once hit her since childhood, nor scolded her harshly, this silent, knowing smile carried more weight than words.
"Okay, okay, I get it, sister. Really, you just showed no interest in Rasa before, and now you're suddenly so invested."
