The house before him was completely different from the one he owned in Konoha.
Judging by the passage of time, the house he had in Konoha had been there for at least a decade.
In other words, this wasn't the past.
After thinking for a few minutes, Su Yu headed toward Naruto Uzumaki's house.
Since this wasn't the same world, he had to do something.
For instance, take them away.
In front of Naruto Uzumaki's house.
Su Yu used the Byakugan to scout ahead, but saw neither Minato Namikaze nor Kushina Uzumaki.
After a moment's hesitation, he used the Body Flicker Technique to slip into the house.
Under the Byakugan's gaze,
nothing in the room could escape his notice.
Su Yu didn't take anything else. He took the Flying Thunder God Kunai from the drawer.
Of course, these kunai didn't yet bear Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Mark.
If they had, the moment he took them, Minato Namikaze would have appeared before him and killed him.
Su Yu could now sense that he could leave this parallel world at any moment by using the Flying Thunder God Kunai in the real world.
Without hesitation, Su Yu put all nine Flying Thunder God Kunai into the Storage Scroll. He could inscribe the Flying Thunder God Marks at his leisure after returning.
With that done, Su Yu was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something.
There didn't seem to be any women's clothes in the house!
In other words, Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki weren't officially living together yet.
"In that case, I might be able to use this..."
He activated the Mind's Eye of the Kagura and sensed Kushina Uzumaki's location.
Kushina Uzumaki was a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Her chakra exceeded that of an ordinary person, making her as easy to find as a bright lamp at night.
Before long, he had pinpointed Kushina Uzumaki's location.
She was a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and rarely left the village to go on missions—unless she was going with Minato Namikaze.
At Kushina Uzumaki's house,
she wore a sweet smile as she baked cookies.
They were for Minato Namikaze.
Minato Namikaze had left the village on a mission.
She wanted to wait until he returned, then talk to him about moving in with him.
They had already made their relationship official, yet Minato Namikaze still treated her with the same gentlemanly courtesy. It left her feeling a little disappointed.
If she moved into Minato Namikaze's home, she would have a chance to be closer to him.
As Kushina Uzumaki thought about it, her face couldn't help turning red.
"I'm almost jealous of you. The Root of Konoha wiped out the Uzumaki Clan, but you get to live here without a care in the world." A voice suddenly rang out.
Kushina Uzumaki froze and looked up at Su Yu, who was sitting in a chair.
"I'm the new clan head of the Uzumaki Clan. I came to Konoha specifically to find you, Kushina Uzumaki." As Su Yu spoke, chains from the Adamantine Sealing Chains appeared behind him.
"New clan head? What do you mean? How could Konoha's Root possibly wipe out the Uzumaki Clan..."
"Konoha brought you here to use you. You're nothing but a vessel. Minato Namikaze is the best candidate to become the next Hokage. Marrying you will solidify his position." Su Yu spoke calmly and put away the chains.
"Y-you have proof?" Kushina Uzumaki's eyes were uneasy.
"The Root of Konoha has been hunting me. I got these clothes from a Root member. I infiltrated Konoha to let you make a choice. If you choose Konoha, I'll make you lose control and release the Nine-Tails, destroying the village." Su Yu stood up.
"What's the other choice?" Kushina Uzumaki didn't doubt his ability.
Su Yu's Adamantine Sealing Chains were clearly powerful enough to disrupt the seal on her. Once the Nine-Tails sensed that the seal had been disturbed, it would seize the chance to escape.
"The other choice is simple. We'll restore the Uzumaki Clan together. There's another member of the Uzumaki Clan with me, and we can become a family." Su Yu held out his hand to Kushina Uzumaki and spoke softly.
"Can I say goodbye to Minato?" Kushina Uzumaki's eyes were troubled.
"If you say goodbye to him, do you think he'll let you leave this cage called Konoha, knowing he's going to become the Fourth Hokage?" Su Yu asked.
"Minato isn't that kind of person..."
"He isn't, you're right. It was Root members who killed the Uzumaki Clan. The Hokage's faction represents the light, while Danzo represents the dark. Do you think Danzo would have dared to do it without the Third Hokage's tacit approval?" Su Yu said with a cold laugh.
"But Minato..."
"Since you love him, I'll respect that. I'm willing to die for the Uzumaki Clan. I'll make Konoha pay a heavy price." As Su Yu spoke, the chains of the Adamantine Sealing Chains appeared again.
Seeing this, Kushina Uzumaki hurriedly used the same technique, meeting his chains with her own.
But the next moment, her expression changed.
There was Nine-Tails chakra on Su Yu's chains!
If Su Yu touched the seal, he could connect with the Tailed Beast Chakra inside her in an instant and trigger the Nine-Tails' escape.
"I choose to leave with you," Kushina Uzumaki said quickly.
"Good. Before we go, turn around and let me leave a Flying Thunder God Mark on your back." Su Yu looked at her.
"Y-you said what?" Kushina Uzumaki stared at him in disbelief.
"Did you think Minato Namikaze was the only one who knew the Flying Thunder God Technique?" Su Yu said calmly.
Kushina Uzumaki opened her mouth.
She had planned to look for a chance to escape from Su Yu after leaving Konoha. She hadn't expected him to know the Flying Thunder God Technique too.
"Looks like you were planning to deceive me?" Su Yu's expression turned cold.
"I wasn't deceiving you. I'm willing to go with you. It's just the Flying Thunder God Mark..."
Kushina Uzumaki knew Su Yu wouldn't place the Flying Thunder God Mark on her clothes, but on her back.
But then wouldn't that mean...
"I'm not in the mood for that right now. This mark could also save your life in a pinch." Su Yu looked at Kushina Uzumaki.
"F-fine." Kushina Uzumaki turned around.
Su Yu stepped behind her and watched as Kushina Uzumaki slowly undid her clothes.
His mind was calm. Recalling the mark on the Flying Thunder God Kunai, he began inscribing it.
The mark was inscribed with chakra, so it wouldn't cause any pain.
The person marked wouldn't notice anything either.
It was Su Yu's first time inscribing a Flying Thunder God Mark. Relying on his memory and his control over chakra, he finished in five minutes.
Kushina Uzumaki's face was red, and her little fists were clenched.
Minato Namikaze had told her that once he was ready, he could inscribe a Flying Thunder God Mark in an instant.
Yet Su Yu had taken so long.
"Done," Su Yu said.
At his words, Kushina Uzumaki got dressed and glared at him in embarrassment.
"There's one more thing I need to take care of. Go wait for me in the mountains behind Konoha. I can sense where you are." Su Yu ignored Kushina Uzumaki's reaction. After saying this, he disappeared.
