Sakura (How to Obtain a Reverse Harem in Naruto)

Epilogue(s)

Unfortunately keeping them was the problem.

For reasons Itachi and Kisame couldn't understand, not everyone could tolerate Sakura's behavior for prolonged periods of time.

Madness.

So when things were tight there was really only one group of staff that Sakura could call on.

Her harem.

The Sakura Harem™ had grown over the past decade. Her tenacity was something to be admired, and many found it hard to turn down her baked goods. Some were charmed by her eccentric personality, and others simply too flustered to do anything else but say "What the heck, why not?"

Her harem started off slow at first before exploding in growth after her eighteenth birthday.

Her birthday party was... was one for the history books.

One for the 18+ only history books.

(Let's just say her hallucinogenic poisons were thoroughly tested that day)

It became common knowledge that powerful figures were members of her harem, shooting it up in prestige. When the Feudal Lord of Spring, Yukie, bragged about the perks of being a member, Konoha was flooded with fans begging to join the harem.

As much as Sakura wished she could accept them all, she had to acknowledge she only had so much time in her day to handknit so many sweaters—even with the help of shadowclones.

What a pity.

Sakura's harem wasn't the only noteworthy event of the decade.

Peace was (kind of?) established between the major shinobi villages. The current kages all worked hard to further build their positive relationship. Amegakure was a surprising mix to throw in. With the Akatsuki being officially pardoned, Nagato stepped out as Amegakure's new leader. Through a variety of uncanny coincidences, Nagato's new Akatsuki members were required to help the major shinobi villages again, and again, and again.

Purely through happenstances.

There was no insane pinkette behind the scenes causing the type of chaos only Akatsuki members would be able to help with.

Nope.

Definitely did not happen.

As a result of the Akatsuki helping out the other villages so much—through coincidences, they insist—they were able to raise Amegakure up to the status of a major village.

As congratulations for their rise, Sakura had personally set up a Gardenia shop there that had a side business of mass-producing scented candles and oils.

Pine was the best seller.

Unsurprisingly.

Although there was an ongoing heated debate (war, really) amongst Sakura's harem members over the best smell.

Yukie and Kakuzu were both adamant that "Moonlight Snowdrops" were the best scent and they conspired to ruin all the pine candles in stock. Until Deidara and Sasori accidentally foiled their plan when they were conspiring to make "Summer Fireworks" the best scent ever.

It went without saying that Hidan fought valiantly to make "Bloody Evening" the best-scented candle to have ever existed, but he fell victim to Nagato and Gaara's scheme to propel "Cottonwood Cottage" as the number one bestseller.

Then Itachi and Kisame stepped in to turn "Tranquil Lake" into the greatest scent ever and it was just sheer madness from there on out. It was a quiet war unlike ever fought. The gossip mill was overrun by sheer nonsense, and there were days where those who competed were so paranoid about retaliation they couldn't step a foot outside.
