Konoha 41, April 9, Konoha west side Forest Street.
Kushina Uzumaki's house is also on the west side of the village, very close to Forest Street.
Early in the morning, Akaseki met Ranwu and Minato at the entrance of Forest Street. Seeing that Akaseki came with the light, Ranwu was a little surprised - not everyone can see Kushina...
Minato's expression flickered for a moment, thinking more.
"Eh? Do you want to go with Hikaru too?" Ranwu was surprised and asked directly.
"Don't worry, Guang and Kushina have similar life experiences, so they should have many topics in common." Akaseki explained.
"That's not what I'm talking about..." Ranwu looked at Akaseki more doubtfully - what she doubted was not whether Kushina and Guang could get along well.
"Anbu, let me explain!" Akaseki said with a big wave of his hand.
Ranwu:...
Explanation?
You didn't even apply for co-authorship, so you just took the person in?
"After all, I am also Konoha's Two Colors. With me as guarantee, there is nothing wrong with it!" Akaseki looked at Ranwu's eyes and said confidently.
It would be too troublesome to apply, and you may even not be able to apply.
So Akaseki chose to go directly!
A month ago, Akaseki would not have tried it...
It would be weird not to be kicked out!
But it's different now. Akaseki has a record of "Konoha's Two Colors" level. Even if it's not Elite Jonin, its prestige in the village is almost the same.
In the past, the rules that were insurmountable for Akaseki are now "just for my sake".
Of course, afterward... even after Akaseki brings the light in, Anbu will definitely report to Hokage.
But as long as nothing happens, Akaseki has already found a reason on the surface. I believe that Hiruzen Sarutobi will not specifically talk to Akaseki about this.
Come to Uzumaki Residence.
Sure enough, I was stopped by a Anbu outside.
"Three of you, Mr. Kushina is not suitable for too much interruption right now, this..."
It can be seen that his main target is light!
After all, he has no special approval and has no identity in Konoha. He is just an "ordinary Genin who is not very old".
When Guang heard this, he couldn't help but frown - it wasn't that he was unhappy that he had lost face, but... Seeing Kushina's environment so "isolated" made Guang think something about it.
However, Akaseki pretended not to understand the hint and said, "This is the light who has just returned home. She and Kushina have similar backgrounds and will have many common topics."
"This... Master Akaseki..." Anbu really didn't dare to refuse directly like before.
"With me here, what are you afraid of?" Akaseki said matter-of-factly.
Anbu Ninja:...
When he saw Akaseki, he led people inside directly, and Anbu Ninja outside did not directly stop him.
As Akaseki said...
With him here, what else are you afraid of?
Even if Uchiha Clan really wants to do something to Kushina or Nine-Tails, Akaseki is enough here. Do you need anyone else?
Of course, just as Akaseki expected, after he came in, other ninjas immediately went to Hokage Building to report.
Minato was thoughtful at this time...
When Akaseki said something about "similar life experiences" before, Minato found it strange - Minato could find very few similarities between the two of them. It was too weak to say that they were both "orphans" and "didn't grow up in the clan".
Although it might just be Akaseki's habitual spiel, Minato always felt that what Akaseki said this time was half-truth and half-false again.
Go inside.
"Brother Akaseki!" A red-haired girl ran over and saw Akaseki among the others at a glance.
Ranwu on the side curled his lips vaguely.
Guang frowned and looked at it...
It looks like Uzumaki Clan, but... there are no traces of Sealing on his body, and there is no smell of Tailed Beast!
"Manako, how are you doing recently?" Akaseki greeted reservedly.
That's right, at this time Kushina, in addition to the female Anbu Tian Lu, there is also another Uzumaki Manako - that is, the Uzumaki survivor who was rescued from Land of Grass.
Although Manako had been unconscious when Akaseki was fighting, he might have had some remaining consciousness. Therefore, after waking up, the person Manako trusted the most was Akaseki...
After Akaseki proposed that he could take her away from Kusagakure, Manako immediately ignored Kusagakure Cao Bao's interference and hints and decided to return to Konoha with Akaseki.
Because she is also Uzumaki Clan and is naturally close to Kushina. In addition, Kushina's situation is becoming increasingly stable, so Konoha placed her here with Kushina.
Manako is different from Kushina. She can go out by herself as long as she simply reports, and she can contact Kushina on a daily basis, thus becoming the "incarnation" of Kushina's indirect contact with the outside world.
At the same time, Guang also noticed that another red-haired girl was having sex with Minato.
And...
Guang looked at Kushina and nodded clearly - this time it was right!
Nine-Tails The ominous chakra is about to emerge from her body...
At the same time, Kushina also suddenly stopped moving.
"What's wrong?" Minato noticed something strange and asked quickly.
"It's nothing, that fox is always very restless today..." Kushina said halfway, remembering that Tian Lu was still beside him, so he added, "Probably because he knew that he was going to be completely controlled by me, so he didn't give in!"
Kushina I can't wait for a long time...
Although she is not a "combat-happy" character, she is very tired of this kind of life under strict surveillance. Instead of this, she is more willing to fight.
"Sir Kushina, do you need a rest?" Tian Lu asked worriedly.
"You said you don't need to call me that..." Kushina corrected.
At this moment, Guang took two steps forward.
Seeing this, Minato instinctively changed his posture to cover Kushina.
"Who are you?" Kushina looked at the light in confusion.
"I am... Light, are you Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?" Guang said, extending his hand directly - it was obviously a handshake gesture, but the words were a bit unpleasant.
"Light!" Minato's voice became a little harsher.
Although Minato trusts Akaseki, but... Guang's behavior is too abnormal, especially now he calls him "Nine-Tails Jinchuriki".
"Huh? Well..." Kushina grabbed Minato at this time, also stretched out his hand and said, "Hello... you can call me Kushina."
Akaseki was a little nervous at first and thought he was going crazy, but...
Kushina, who possesses the talent of the Uzumaki Clan, instinctively felt Guang's kindness.
Although the other party said "Nine-Tails Jinchuriki" when he opened his mouth, Kushina could feel the kindness towards him without any fear or disapproval, and even... with a deep empathy!
This makes Kushina feel very warm.
Minato couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this. After confirming what Kushina meant, he quickly got out of the way without disturbing the communication between the two.
Minato heard Kushina mention it, Uzumaki Clan actually also has Kekkei Genkai, but no one has awakened for a long, long time, that is "Mind's Eye of the Kagura".
Although it has the word "eye", it is not like "Sharingan" or "Byakugan", which directly awakens the eyes and strengthens the ability of vision. Instead, it focuses on the word "heart", allowing the awakened person to perceive the hearts of other people...
Although Kushina has not really awakened Mind's Eye of the Kagura, there are some signs that he can sense other people's mentality towards him at close range.
When Kushina and Minato mentioned this matter, they got tired of it...
"Sorry, I'm too nervous." Minato came to the side at this time and whispered to Akaseki.
"Really, why are you nervous..." Akaseki pretended to be relaxed.
But when Guang heard this, he turned around and said, "If you want to apologize, you've got the wrong target. He was more nervous than you just now."
Just now I felt that Akaseki was about to transform!
"What are you talking about? What are you nervous about?" Ranwu tilted his head to the side and asked in confusion.
"Nothing..." Akaseki smiled dryly and changed the topic.
Guang and Kushina talked alone for a while - of course, even if they were alone, there was Tian Lu beside them.
The two of them didn't say anything sensitive or confidential, just...
Kushina I have a feeling that two people can understand each other without having to say a lot of things.
Not only is Guang's kindness towards him, but...Kushina can feel that Guang also has a desire to talk!
This is something Kushina has never felt before...
What Kushina originally felt...Minato can accept and tolerate his own confession; Ranwu will try to understand his confession; even...Akaseki's "malice is not fun", these are the "goodwill" that Kushina can detect when expressing his desire to talk.
Kushina felt novel that someone would actually want to talk to him, and at the same time, he quickly established a trusting relationship with Hikaru, making him feel as if he had just met him too late.
It would be better if Nine-Tails could not "get sick" today...
Kushina doesn't know why, but Nine-Tails today... no, to be precise, it started from the time Minato and the others came, and they became restless!
Akaseki and Ranwu have inspected Manako's ninjutsu training progress, but Kushina is still talking to Hikaru...
"By the way, Kushina, I still have some Sealing Technique things that I want to ask you for advice." Akaseki couldn't help but interrupt.
"Huh? Okay... where did you learn? Eight Trigrams? Four Symbols?" Kushina asked casually.
But as soon as these words came out, the person on the other side was stunned - now...Uchiha Clan can now ask Uzumaki Clan for advice Sealing Technique?
And it sounds like Sealing Technique is really asking for advice from the Uzumaki Clan!
Although Akaseki said she wanted to ask Kushina before, she thought it was a more tactful test.
From the look of Kushina, it doesn't look like he was forced...
Guang's face, which had been tense since the morning, had been softening since he entered the door, and it became more obvious now.
"Don't talk about that... I just want to ask you about Space-Time Sealing!" Akaseki doesn't care about Four Symbols Eight Trigrams. After all, his training schedule has been very full recently. In fact, he has not practiced Sealing Technique specifically.
"Space-Time? You..." Kushina said, and couldn't help but look at Minato, asking with his eyes: Did he come here "not to admit defeat" because he discovered that you have Space-Time potential?
