"It seems no one wants to do this anymore, so you can continue the discussion."

His gaze swept across the room, but no one responded. Uya's expression remained perfectly calm. After saying one sentence, he turned around and walked away.

After Uya left, the scene remained completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

After a long pause, someone finally spoke.

"I think we should just let this matter drop."

"Yes, with Lord Uya here, even if the Nine-Tails goes berserk, it can be suppressed again. There's no need to lock up the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

When the Jonin in the arena spoke again, almost all of them had changed their attitude.

Danzo, who sat at the head of the Danzo with Hiruzen Sarutobi, gritted his teeth, his knuckles white from clenching his fists, and his eyes revealed a look of resentment. But under these circumstances, he dared not say anything more.

Uya has already made his stance clear.

Uya wouldn't allow anyone to have any designs on Kushina's matter. Even though everyone present hated and loathed the rampaging Nine-Tails, they could only suppress it because Uya was there.

Inside a makeshift room.

Kushina looked somewhat haggard as she sat there. People passing by outside would occasionally glance at Kushina through the window and show expressions of utter disgust and hatred.

Just like Naruto in the original story, even though the Nine-Tails' rampage had nothing to do with her, the villagers didn't see it that way.

After the villagers learned of her identity as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, they all regarded her as the source of evil, believing that she had killed their relatives, and she herself felt very guilty.

Uya pushed open the door of the wooden house and walked in. Seeing Kushina's condition, he felt a pang of heartache, walked to her side, and gently took her delicate, jade-like hand.

Kushina looked at Uya, a rare and pitiful expression on her face.

Uya gently rubbed her soft breasts and comforted her, saying, "This isn't your fault, you don't need to feel guilty about it."

"But ultimately, it's because of me that Konoha has become like this, with so many people dying."

Kushina's pretty face was filled with immense guilt and self-reproach; her lips were almost bitten through, and a trickle of blood flowed from them.

Seeing her like this, Uya reached out and pulled her into a tight embrace, holding her close as he whispered in her ear.

"This incident may be orchestrated by someone behind the scenes, deliberately trying to sabotage Konoha."

"Is that so?!"

Kushina looked at Uya with a surprised expression and some disbelief.

Uya said softly, "Do you think the Eight Trigrams Seal could break inexplicably? Obviously not. Besides, do you remember the last time you were captured by the Cloud Ninja?"

After being reminded by Uya, Kushina pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening.

"That is indeed strange. Could it be Cloud Ninja?"

"No, the Cloud Ninja aren't capable enough to tamper with the Eight Trigrams Seal." Uya shook his head and said, "I can now determine exactly who did it."

Who is it?

Kushina also looked puzzled. Who could tamper with the Eight Trigrams Seal without anyone noticing, and even tamper with the Nine-Tails as well?

Uya took a deep breath, his eyes flashing, and without hiding Kushina's thoughts, asked, "Have you ever heard of this name Madara Uchiha?"

" Madara Uchiha?!"

Kushina stared at Uya in astonishment, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "The one from the First Hokage Hashirama Senju? Wasn't he long ago dead?"

"No, he's not dead, and he's secretly planning many things. I've already clashed with him in secret more than once." Uya looked at Kushina, not worried that she would reveal these things. Anyway, if she did, it wouldn't affect him, but Madara Uchiha.

If the entire Shinobi World knew that Madara Uchiha was still alive, it would probably cause a huge uproar, even more so than when Uya killed the Third Kazekage and the Third Raikage.

Hearing Uya's words, Kushina was initially taken aback, but gradually calmed down. She still trusted Uya's words completely.

After pursing her lips, Kushina gently leaned against Uya's chest, nestled in his Uya, looking much better and visibly more energetic.

As long as this isn't her fault, that's fine.

Although she would still grieve for the destruction Konoha had suffered, she would no longer feel as immense guilt and self-blame as before.

Kushina rallied and tried her best to control the Nine-Tails Chakra, both to enhance her own strength and to prevent the Nine-Tails from going berserk again.

But what happened next was still somewhat unexpected.

Those Konoha High Command who understood the situation were fine; their attitude towards Kushina remained the same as before, except that they felt they needed to be more vigilant about Kushina existence, in case she might go Nine-Tails again at any time.

However, the Chunin, Genin, and the common people of Konoha all had only one attitude towards Kushina: utter disgust and hatred!

In their eyes, Kushina was the Nine-Tails, the being who killed their family and friends!

Although no one dared to lay a hand on Kushina because of Uya's presence, or even directly curse or rebuke her, Kushina was still met with countless eyes full of disgust and hatred when she walked down the street.

Kushina is experiencing now is far more cruel than the cold stares Yuya suffered when he was Uya, and even more cruel than what Naruto experienced in the original story.

With Uya around, no one in Konoha dared to point fingers at Kushina, but that didn't change their underlying attitudes.

He respected Uya, and hated Kushina.

Some people even dared to tell Uya that Kushina was just an evil Nine-Tailed Demon Fox and was not worthy of Uya at all.

Although Kushina didn't hear these words, they eventually reached Kushina ears.

In the rebuilt Konoha, at Uya's home.

There was no fancy furniture; everything was quite ordinary.

Uya Gate of Opening and walked in. As he closed the door, Kushina came over and hugged Uya tightly from behind.

" Uya, should I not exist?"

She was trying so hard to control the Nine-Tails and help Konoha, but no one in Konoha understood her. Anyone would feel disappointed in a village like that.

Kushina is very strong. Even though she is not understood, she still tries her best. Her words do not reveal sadness, but disappointment, disappointment with the Konoha.

"Your existence is the meaning of my existence."

Uya turned around and hugged her tightly, feeling her body temperature.

The atmosphere became very warm. Both Uya and Kushina felt the same way; they only felt warmth when they were together.

After a long pause, Uya spoke softly, " Kushina, let's go, let's leave Konoha." To be continued.
