Bloody Habanero

Inside the Senju Compound, Liuxia was diligently tidying up Kushina Uzumaki's attire, carefully brushing through her vibrant red hair. Just then, Nawaki's urging voice came from the doorway: "Time to go! Little Xia, Kushina! We're going to be late for school!"

Hearing this, Liuxia quickened his pace and swiftly finished the final touches. He looked at Kushina in the mirror, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "All done! Kushina is still a beautiful little princess today!"

Kushina blushed at his words, lowered her head in embarrassment, and whispered, "Thank you, Brother Liuxia!" She then walked out of the room with him.

"I'm telling you, Liuxia, you're way too slow! I've been waiting outside for ages." As soon as Nawaki saw them emerge, he couldn't wait to start complaining to Liuxia.

"I'm sorry, Brother Nawaki, it's all because of me..." Kushina lowered her head again, feeling shy, while Liuxia looked at Nawaki speechlessly. What would a rough guy like you understand?

"Ah... it's fine, ha-ha-ha! Kushina, I don't blame you; it's all that guy Liuxia's fault for being so slow! Let's go, today is your first day of school! You have to look your best, of course!"

Liuxia rolled his eyes at Nawaki with a faint smile, took Kushina's hand, and comforted her, "Alright, aren't we here now? Today is your first day of school, so we can't be late." With that, the three of them headed toward the school together.

Along the way, the sun was bright and a gentle breeze brushed against their faces, making everyone feel exceptionally refreshed. Liuxia and Nawaki chatted as they walked, while Kushina held Liuxia's hand quietly, enjoying the beautiful moment.

The group soon arrived at the school. Along the way, they encountered many classmates, and Nawaki enthusiastically greeted everyone, introducing his sister to them.

Unlike Liuxia's quiet, introverted, and handsome image, Nawaki had always been a lively, cheerful, and humorous character, which made him get along much better with his classmates. However, when it came to popularity among the girls, Liuxia completely outperformed Nawaki.

After all, who wouldn't like a beautiful young man like Liuxia, who was gentle, handsome, powerful, yet quiet? The boys just looked at the red-haired girl with curiosity, while the girls had already begun to feel envious and jealous.

"Ahhh! Why does she get to hold Liuxia-kun's hand! I want to too!"

"I'll sign that petition!"

"I would like to as well..." (A burly guy had somehow mixed himself into the crowd.)

Being watched by so many eyes, Kushina Uzumaki soon felt a bit uncomfortable. Especially under the intense gazes of the girls, she was even a little frightened.

Consequently, she chose to move even closer to her beloved Brother Liuxia. As for why she didn't choose Nawaki? Please, with a perfect existence like Liuxia around, why would anyone choose a dense, goofy guy like Nawaki?

After giving Kushina a few words of advice, the three separated to head to their respective classrooms. Watching Kushina's retreating figure, Liuxia suddenly seemed to remember something important and quickly formed hand seals.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

"Poof!"

Following his low, soft shout, an identical figure appeared beside him. Liuxia turned to look at Nawaki, scratched his head, and said, "Sorry, Nawaki, I have something I need to take care of today. Let this shadow clone go to class with you instead!"

"Hey! Little Xia, what could possibly be so urgent? Hey! Wait for me, take me with you!"

Nawaki shouted in confusion, but Liuxia had already run off, leaving behind only a dashing silhouette.

At this very moment, a raging fire of "little-sister-obsession" was burning in Liuxia's heart. He remembered those detestable brats from the original animation who dared to bully his cute sister, Kushina!

Thinking of this, Liuxia clenched his fists tightly, itching to rush into the classroom and beat those guys to a pulp. Of course, there was also that blond brat who stood by and giggled while others were being bullied... It just made him angrier the more he thought about it! You guys had better be smart this time, or I'll make sure you regret it!

Fueled by the power of his grievances, Liuxia soon arrived at the large tree outside Kushina's classroom. He stood still and began to carefully observe the situation inside. (Well, in truth, it was just his sister-complex at work...)

"Students! Quiet down, please. Today, we have a new student in Class A! Kushina, why don't you come up and introduce yourself?"

Kushina felt a bit stage-frightened by the unfamiliar environment, but she took a deep breath and prepared to speak.

However, just then, she noticed a few people pointing at her red hair. This made her feel a surge of irritation, and she couldn't help but raise her voice, "I am Kushina Uzumaki, ya know!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Kushina realized she had used her usual verbal tic because of her anger and covered her mouth in embarrassment. However, when she saw that the students' attitudes hadn't changed, the fire in her heart burned even brighter.

"I am going to be the first female Hokage of this village!" she declared loudly, her tone firm and powerful.

The classroom erupted in an uproar, and the students began to whisper among themselves.

Just as everyone was buzzing with noise, a handsome young man with blond hair and a sunshine-like smile stood up.

"I also want to become an excellent Hokage recognized by the villagers!" His voice was clear and loud, as if conveying a sense of determination and belief to everyone.

Seeing the scene before him, Liuxia, standing outside the window, gritted his teeth in hatred; he didn't even have the energy to curse the rude little brats from earlier. So, this was Minato Namikaze!

Fine, you little brat! You never show up to stop the bullies, but you swoop in to take advantage of the situation later! You have to realize, this is the number one village in the entire ninja world! How could they let someone kidnap the Nine-Tails jinchuriki right under their noses?

A little bit of critical thinking was enough to guess that the schemes of those old geezers were definitely behind this! Even if Minato was unaware, those old ghosts were definitely calculating something!

They didn't care about the physical or mental health of the jinchuriki at all; they only knew how to use so-called "bonds" to bind others! These detestable old men were truly rotten to the core—one day, I'll make you pay!

Just then, Minato, who was expressing his dreams to the red-haired girl he admired, suddenly felt a wave of intense malice. At the same time, the Third Hokage, who was observing Kushina with his Telescope Technique, couldn't help but shiver.

"From now on, I'll call you Tomato! Ha-ha-ha..."

"A chubby round face, plus red hair—ha-ha-ha-ha, isn't that just a tomato?"

"How could a tomato ever become Hokage? Ha-ha-ha-ha!"

As soon as the bell rang, several brats immediately surrounded Kushina, pointing and mocking her. One of them even reached out to grab Kushina's red hair, while Minato stood by, indifferent, just watching the show.

Seeing this, Liuxia was just about to intervene and teach those ignorant brats a lesson, letting them feel the iron fist of a protective brother, when he saw that Kushina didn't let them grab her hair as easily as in the original animation. Instead, she swiftly slapped the reaching hand away.

"Only my brother is allowed to touch my red hair! And who are you calling a tomato? You bunch of ugly monsters!" Kushina shouted in anger, swinging her fist and sending those brats flying one by one.

"If anyone dares to call me a tomato again, I won't let them off!" Kushina glared, issuing a warning. (Liuxia cheered inwardly: Well said! That's right, hit them hard!)

She then snapped her gaze toward Minato, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, and snarled, "What are you laughing at!" This startled Minato so much that he immediately turned away, not daring to look in her direction again.

(Liuxia thought happily: Great job, little sister! I'm making you extra food tonight!)

And thus, the legendary "Bloody Habanero," known for her explosive temper and feared by all, finally made her grand entrance!!!!!!!
