Chapter 218

The villagers of Konoha also harbored resentment towards Naruto.

Behind the scenes.

Kushina heard the villagers calling Naruto Demon Fox.

Kushina didn't react in any particular way when she found out.

Because she knew... once the identity of Jinchūriki could not be kept secret, this would be the final outcome.

The Nine Tailed Beasts, and dozens of Jinchūriki throughout history.

Every Jinchūriki, once their identity is exposed, will inevitably be ostracized, and their social relationships will directly deteriorate to this state.

And this is the fate of Jinchūriki.

Seeing Kushina's relieved expression.

Akito understands this.

In the original work.

Kushina and Minato Namikaze sealed a portion of Chakra into Naruto Uzumaki's body.

Their Chakra had been watching Naruto Uzumaki grow up since he was a child.

They recognized each other only after the Shippuden.

Neither Uzumaki Kushina nor Minato Namikaze made any special remarks.

There was neither anger, hatred, nor sorrow.

Because they knew very well that this was the Jinchūriki had to endure.

It's normal to experience social exclusion.

Only after enduring hardship can one achieve great things.

So...

The idea that Minato Namikaze Kushina would turn evil if they saw Naruto Uzumaki's upbringing is clearly unreliable speculation.

Because the original manga has clearly shown Kushina and Minato Namikaze's reactions.

They didn't find Naruto Uzumaki's experience particularly unacceptable.

Just like how hard-working people never think there's anything wrong with the 996 work schedule, they even think that working overtime is glorious and a sign of being proactive.

This is a difference in perception, and also a difference in ideology.

"Naruto Uzumaki's identity Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was exposed because Shimura Danzō secretly spread the word."

As darkness fell, Kushina saw Naruto happily heading home after finishing his Ichiraku Ramen.

The Akito told him the truth.

This event is described in the official novel, * Itachi Shinden *.

The pot, of course, belongs to Danzo.

"Danzo..."

Kushina naturally knew that the man represented the dark side of Konoha.

But regardless, Shimura Danzō was still a Konoha ninja.

Therefore, Kushina was only slightly unhappy.

They did not intend to eliminate Shimura Danzō as quickly as possible.

At most, I just want to give him a good beating, reprimand that old guy, and make him apologize publicly.

Seeing Kushina's performance.

The Akito understood perfectly what she was thinking.

This is Konoha, a den of traitors, birds of a feather flock together.

"Our deal is done today."

I saw the lights in the small building come on.

The day's exploration... has come to an end.

Kushina gazed longingly at the silhouette reflected in the window light.

She longed to... reunite with her son.

However, she also understood that it was an unrealistic fantasy.

There will be other opportunities in the future.

Akito's cold tone reminded her.

"Whether you see your child again, or one day you reunite with him, there will be opportunities..."

Kushina: "!"

Kushina's eyes widened suddenly.

I simply couldn't believe what I was hearing.

But then, her eyes reddened, she covered her mouth, and was about to cry.

Because she knew.

This is a deal with the devil.

Every step forward you take means a step further into the abyss.

Furthermore... he continued to wrong Minato, until... complete betrayal.

"Now that you've visited your child, it's time for you to continue fulfilling your obligations, Kushina..."

A black flame flickered in Akito's eyes as he stared at Kushina.

"I haven't had dinner yet, let's go eat together."

After saying that, Akito took Kushina to a restaurant and booked a private room.

In the locked single room.

Akito sat on the sofa.

There is a rectangular table in front of me.

All the dishes served were visually appealing, fragrant, and delicious.

The Akito immediately had a great appetite.

He picked up his chopsticks, started picking up food, and ate heartily.

Kushina sat opposite her, her face pale.

She took a deep breath and looked at Amakawa Akito, who was focused on eating.

She knew...

It's time to keep my promise.

With a rustling sound, she slid off the sofa.

Soon, they reached under the table.

It seems something has been lost.

Kushina searched under the table for a very long time... but it didn't stop her from eating.

Finally, the Akito were full.

Kushina was also stuffed.

After you've finished this task...

It was already 9 p. m., and the restaurant was about to close.

Akito put down his chopsticks, stood up, straightened his clothes, and prepared to go to the Hyuga Clan's gathering place.

147. The Kidnapping of Hyuga Hinata

The Konoha in the dead of night.

After celebrating Hyuga Hinata's birthday Hyuga Clan Main Family went to sleep.

Everything was so quiet.

But the silence was broken when a dark figure darted out from inside the wall.

The woman he had abducted from his arms was Hinata Hyuga, the eldest daughter of the Hyuga Hinata Hyuga Clan.

With his exceptional Taijutsu speed, he swiftly swept across the scene.

"Hinata..."

Hyuga Hiashi then rushed out of the mansion, relying on his familiarity with the terrain of Konoha.

And the ability to see through Byakugan and have far-sightedness.

Hyuga Hiashi quickly took a shortcut.

The moment the thief appeared, the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm, measured one second in advance, was unleashed.

Bang!!

Air explosion.

Then, Hyuga Hiashi leaped forward.

He plunged his right hand into the other person's heart with a karate chop.

Gentle Fist!

Pfft...

The Chakra seeped into the opponent's body, instantly destroying their heart.

"Mmm~!"

The thief only had time to let out a muffled groan before collapsing to the ground.

Hyuga Hiashi caught his trembling daughter and breathed a sigh of relief.

He then became curious about the thief's identity.

The mask covering his face was lifted, and the instant he saw the face of the Kumogakure leader...

Hyuga Hiashi knew he had... committed a grave error.

Watching Hyuga Hiashi's hurried departure.

The Akito witnessed this scene remained expressionless.

"Next..."

The Akito turned their gaze to the Hyuga Clan's compound.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group will arrive soon and launch a coup against the Hyuga Clan..."

Soon.

The Konoha High Command learned of the murder of the one-eyed ninja leader.

The delegation from Kumogakure's true purpose was actually to obtain the Byakugan from the Hyuga Clan.

The Konoha High Command immediately became wary of this.

At the same time.

The Kumogakure delegation also launched an attack on the spot because the one-eyed dragon ninja leader had not returned.

A dispute ensued.
