Kushina, I've Decided This Brother Is Mine!

As time went on, the border gradually appeared, and the Cloud Village ninja, who had been on edge, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew, tonight was really dangerous!"

"Yeah! But luckily, it was a close call."

"Once we get back to the village, I'm going to get drunk for a day and a night!"

Seeing this, Hagyi also tried to excuse himself, "I told you it was impossible to be discovered! Look, aren't there no pursuers now?"

The ninja who had covered his mouth earlier angrily said, "I told you not to say things like that..."

But before he could finish, his eyes lost their focus.

Still dazed, Uzumaki Kushina was grabbed and thrown by Asuma before she could even react.

Meanwhile, Soseki seized the opportunity to throw shuriken, precisely cutting the ropes binding Kushina's hands.

"Someone actually came to save me!" Kushina fell to the ground, the sudden pain jolting her awake.

Although she had been trying to save herself, she didn't actually believe anyone would come to her rescue due to the barriers in her heart.

But to her surprise, her fantasy had become reality.

Looking up, she saw two little boys in her line of sight.

"Two children saved me?"

At this moment, the Cloud Village ninja also began to wake up.

"I was hit by a genjutsu!" Noticing what was happening around him, the leading ninja felt a chill and a wave of fear. "Fortunately, the other party saved the person first. Otherwise, I wouldn't have even known how I died this time!"

"Is it really that effective?" Hagyi, who had just woken up, looked confused at first. Upon seeing the two attackers, he shouted in disbelief, "It's you two brats!"

Hearing his shout, the others quickly calmed down, looked around, and then felt ecstatic.

"Only these two brats? Where is Konoha's ANBU?"

Kushina also reacted and asked in a hesitant tone, "Is it just the two of you?"

But soon, she mocked herself, "That's right. Someone like me, an unwelcome outsider, would only be tolerated by children like you."

"How can kind people be disliked?" Soseki said softly while providing Kushina with temporary treatment.

"Kind?" Kushina was stunned. It was the first time anyone had praised her like this.

Soseki nodded, "When I was treating you, sister, I discovered a very powerful force within you. If you weren't suppressing it, you could have defeated them."

"To not let those around you be threatened, you'd rather be hurt yourself. Such a person must be very kind!"

Kushina's nose twitched, and she almost burst into tears.

Having experienced the destruction of her home, bullying from classmates, discrimination from others, and even being brought to Konoha only as a vessel since childhood, this was the first time she had received such recognition.

In that instant, she made up her mind. She had accepted this younger brother! (To break your thoughts, I am Bing Qing Yu Jie Gao Shao Jun, not some old sp (.) )

Seeing Soseki and their mission target chatting as if no one else was there, the Cloud Village ninja felt deeply insulted.

With new and old grudges, Hagyi rubbed his wrist and grinned menacingly, "You two annoying brats, you've finally fallen into my hands!"

Kushina snapped back to reality and shielded Soseki, "Didn't you want to capture me? I won't resist, but you have to let these two go."

Hagyi said anxiously, "Captain, that brat is the Third Hokage's son. Since we're already at the border, we don't need to worry about Konoha's retaliation!"

Hearing this, Kushina also looked surprised, "He's... Old Man Sarutobi's son?"

The leading ninja seemed conflicted. If they captured the Third Hokage's son, wouldn't it directly trigger the Third Great Ninja War?

How could he, a mere Chunin, make a decision that could change the world's landscape?

After taking several deep breaths, the inherent madness of the Cloud Village ninja finally influenced him. "Let's do it!"

Upon hearing this, the other Cloud Village ninja also shouted excitedly. This was the Third Hokage's son; his value was immeasurably higher than that of the Uzumaki clan orphan!

Asuma looked innocent. I didn't say a word, so why are they all targeting me inexplicably?

However, he wasn't afraid; he even felt excited. "Hmph! With you trash ninja, you're still a long way from dealing with the great Asuma!"

"Soseki, let these guys see what we're made of!"

"His name is Soseki?" Kushina looked at Soseki with concern, her eyes full of worry.

As they spoke, several Cloud Village ninja had already charged forward.

In their eyes, how powerful could two brats be? They just needed to be careful of the previous genjutsu.

Meanwhile, Soseki and the other boy began their coordinated actions.

Soseki quickly formed hand seals, while Asuma unleashed his shuriken like a starry sky all at once.

"Why are there so many shuriken?"

"Damn it, this kid is too rich!"

The Cloud Village ninja were all frustrated. Although the other party's throwing technique was immature, the force was not low, and their strength was not enough to ignore it.

Clink—clink—

Amidst a series of metallic collisions, the shuriken quickly fell to the ground, but that was enough!

Illusion Arts: Fox Heart Illusion!

"Huh? Where'd he go?" The leading ninja suddenly realized a cliff had inexplicably appeared before him, making him stop dead in his tracks.

But just then, his instincts, honed by years as a ninja, screamed a warning.

"Illusion Arts, release!"

After forcefully disrupting the flow of chakra within his body, the leading ninja finally regained clarity.

Then, he felt a blast of hot wind rush towards him.

The leading ninja focused his gaze and saw a massive fireball crackling as it burned its way towards him.

"Damn it!" With no time for more curses, the leading ninja quickly rolled to the side.

"Ptooey, ptooey!" Spitting out a mouthful of grass seeds, the dust-covered leading ninja stared blankly at the scorched marks on the ground.

Wasn't the Great Fireball Technique a jutsu for Chunin? How could a six or seven-year-old kid use it so proficiently?

Was there any justice left in the world!

"No, there's also the C-rank genjutsu, Fox Heart Illusion!" The leading ninja glanced at his companions, who were crashing around like headless chickens, and cursed inwardly again. "That other kid is even more of a monster, he even used a group-wide area genjutsu!"

"If Konoha is full of monsters like this, how did we Cloud Village even last for years before losing the war?"

Even Kushina was secretly shocked. Her unilaterally recognized little brother seemed a bit too strong!

At the very least, she definitely didn't have this kind of strength at Soseki's age.

Anti-argument PS: Why not kill the enemies first? Reason 1: Unless all enemies are killed instantly, the hostages will still be in danger; Reason 2: Soseki is here to gain favor, so the top priority is naturally to make the other party feel Soseki's importance to her.
