Chapter 931: Four small gatherings
At the gate of the Ninja School, the graduation class division ceremony had just ended. The new graduates of the ninja came out of the school in groups, some were happy and some were depressed.
Outside the school gate, Kushina, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw a familiar figure in the crowd, and hurriedly waved to the other side.
"Mikoto, here!"
Uchiha Mikoto in the crowd heard a familiar voice and looked over there.
"Kushina, you're just here, right?" Mikoto looked at her friend who was running over in surprise and said with some concern, "What should I do? The division has been over, but it's so strange that the teacher didn't mention you."
"Kushina, you're fine, it's great!" A figure ran over, it was Hatsuki Mizuno.
He has been worried about Kushina's safety since yesterday, and even failed to sleep well last night because of this. He almost dozed off when he was in the class today.
However, all this disappeared without a trace when I saw Kushina appearing here safely.
"That's great. I knew something happened to you last night, so I rushed to find you immediately. Unfortunately, when I arrived, several adults from Anbe said that you were gone." Hatsuki Mizuno looked a little excited, "By the way, Kushina, what happened to you last night? Did someone save you?"
"Minimum classmate, what are you talking about? What happened to Kushina last night?" Uchiha Mikoto turned her head to look at her friend with a worried look, "Kushina, what happened to you last night?"
"It's all over!" Kushina said with a careless smile, "Originally, I was kidnapped by several ninjas from other villages last night, but fortunately my teacher saved me, otherwise I might have been taken away."
Hearing what she said casually, Mikoto could imagine the danger at that time and couldn't help but be angry that she didn't even know that something happened to her best friend.
"You are not injured, aren't Kushina?" Mikoto held Kushina's hand with concern and looked up and down.
"No, those ninjas just wanted to kidnap me, as if they said they wanted me to seal some eight-tailed ones." Kushina recalled, but couldn't remember too much, and waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, anyway, when my teacher arrives, all the bad guys will be finished."
"What are you talking about?" A head came over from the side. It was the Thousand-Hand Rope Tree.
This guy saw three of them from afar. Others didn't know that he, the eldest master of the Thousand Hands clan, knew what happened last night. Even if his sister didn't tell him, several elders in the clan told him about this and still vaguely reminded him that he could take the opportunity to comfort Kushina, which might improve the relationship.
Unfortunately, Yoshiki did not hear the hidden meanings in the words of the elders. However, as a kind-hearted boy, Yoshiki was still worried about this female classmate who usually bullies him after hearing that Kushina was kidnapped.
However, just when he saw Kushina at the school gate, Yoshiki knew that she was fine. Seeing that Uchiha Mikoto and Hatsuki Mizuno were there, Yoshiki thought about it and abandoned his two teammates and ran over.
He didn't suddenly get out of the way, but he was just curious about who had such courage to come to the village to kidnap Kushina. It was purely because of the child's curiosity.
"The Eight Tails should be one of the nine-headed beasts. I heard that the physique of your vortex clan is very suitable for being a human pillar. They may want to help you kidnap back and be a human pillar." Shengshu said, and his face couldn't help but show a look of pride. This kind of thing is not something that ordinary ninjas can know. Some Zhongnin has never heard of human pillars but not human pillars, let alone their newly graduated ninjas.
After all, he was a child, and the rope tree was born with a big mouth, so he couldn't hide things in his heart. He directly ignored the things that the elders in the clan told him about the Human Resources Pillar at that time and told him not to talk nonsense outside.
"What is the human pillar?" asked Hakusuke Mizuno inquisitively.
When Qiangshu heard this, he became even more proud.
"Let's go, there are many people here. Let's find a place where there is no one, so that I can spread these common sense to you." Qiangshu patted his chest, looking like 'you all come with me', and walked in front with great strides.
"Tsk~! Who wants to know!" Kushina curled her lips with disrespect. Others don't know what a human throne is, so she won't know?
"Let's go, Kushina. Let's go there together, I've got a lot of things to ask you." Mikoto said, and then pulled Kushina forward. When Hatsuki Mizuno was on the side, she quickly followed.
The four little guys soon arrived at a secluded training ground.
It was during the war, and there were no people in the training ground in the village. The four little guys found a seat under the shade of the tree and sat down. The rope tree quickly told them proudly about the human pillar they knew.
"The so-called human power pillar means sealing the tailed beast in a human body with sealing technique, so that this person can use the power of the tailed beast. It is said that the human power pillar has several states and can turn into a tailed beast. It is a very powerful ninja!" Yoshiki said with an envious look, "I tell you, our Konoha is the human power pillar, and it is the most powerful human power pillar, which is my Mido Grandma!"
"Is it Master Uzumaki Mito? So awesome!" This was the first time Hakusuke Mizuno heard of it, and he looked surprised and greatly satisfied Yoshiki's vanity.
"Tailed beast, it should be a very powerful ninja beast, right?" Mikoto was also envious. She longed for strength and even thought how great it would be if she could become the human pillar in the village.
"That's of course. It is said that the tailed beast is even more powerful than the Shadow-level strongman!" Rose Tree shook its arms and shouted: "I swear that my Qianwu Rose Tree must become a more powerful ninja than the tailed beast in the future, and then become a Hokage. This is my ninja!"
"Rose Tree, my target is also Naruto!" Hakusuke Mizuno said with a smile.
"Then we will compete with each other to see who can become Naruto." Yoshiki looked at Minato with a look of unyielding look and said, "Minato, don't think you are better than me now, but I will definitely surpass you soon."
Naoki Mizuto looked at him with a smile, but he felt a little urgency in his heart.
After all, he was born in a civilian and the resources he obtained were far from comparable to those of Rope Tree. It is not impossible for Rope Tree to say that he would surpass him in the future, but there is still a great possibility.
"I won't admit defeat, either!" said Hatsuki Mizuno.
At this time, Kushina, who was standing beside her, suddenly snorted coldly and said with contempt: "You two fools still want to be Hokage? You can't even figure out what the Human Resources Pillar is. If you become Hokage, the village will definitely be over."
After Kushina said this, Rosaki suddenly became furious.
"You're talking nonsense. The matter between the Human Resources Pluto was told by the elders of my clan. How could I say it randomly? I don't know anything. I like to brag!" After Yoshiki said that, he made a face at Kushina and started to commit suicide again.
The Naoki Mizuno on the side moved quietly to the side and looked at him with sympathy.
But today Kushina did not act directly as usual, but retorted loudly: "I don't know? Then do you know why I came to Konoha?"
As soon as Shengshu spoke, he felt a little regretful.
Originally, he was ready to bear Kushina's fist, but he didn't expect Kushina to suddenly change her sex today.
However, when Kushina said this, Yoshiki was slightly stunned.
"I heard it was because your vortex clan was slapped." Rongshu hesitated a little, not knowing whether he should say it.
"You want to say that you have been exterminated." Kushina said with a calm expression.
This was the first time Mikoto heard about this, and she couldn't help but reach out and hold Kushina's hand and looked at her with concern.
"Kushina, it's okay. You have my friend and your Mido grandma."
"Mikoto, I'm fine, I'm sad, I'm already sad." Kushina shook her head, looked at her friend with a smile, then turned her head to look at the Rosaki beside her, and said, "If you want to say this, you're a big mistake!"
"Isn't it?" Shengshu looked curious.
The Naoki Mizuno on the side was also looking at her.
"Of course not." Kushina said, "Didn't you just say that I don't know what a human pillar is? Is it nonsense? You don't know at all that I will be brought to Konoha because I will become the next Nine-Tail Human pillar!"
"What!" The three of them looked at her in surprise.
"Wait!" Hatsuki Mizuno was the first to react and said with a serious expression: "Kushina, this should be the secret of the village, right? Are you okay to tell us that?"
"Of course not." Kushina smiled and said, "But it's okay now, because I don't have to be the next Nine-Tail Human Relief Pillar."
"Why?" Yoshiki asked with a confused look on his face, "Isn't it possible to gain more powerful power than Naruto? Why do you refuse?"
Mikoto and Minato also looked at her, with doubtful eyes.
"Do you think it's a good thing to be a human pillar?" Kushina snorted coldly, "That's why I said Rose Tree, you don't know what a human pillar is."
"Yes, that's right. Being a human pillar can indeed borrow the power of a tailed beast, but that's after you can gain the recognition of a tailed beast." Kushina said, "And for the village, the human pillar is a weapon that can be used at critical moments. As long as it becomes a human pillar, you will never be able to enjoy freedom. There will be people monitoring you at all times, as if the tailed beast in your body has an abnormality, endangering the safety of the village."
"Can you imagine that kind of life? It's like a little bird trapped in a cage. Grandma Mido told me that she should use love to influence the tailed beast and protect the village. But I don't want to be a human pillar at all. Who asked me what I thought?"
Kushina's mood became a little excited, and Mikoto, who was beside her, hugging her and comforting her.
"It's okay, everything is over." Mikoto gently patted Kushina's back and comforted her: "And didn't you say that you no longer have to be a human pillar anymore, don't be sad."
Yoshiki and Minato looked at Kushina lying on Mikoto's shoulder with complicated eyes. Both of them really liked this village and were eager to use their own strength to protect this village.
So they couldn't fully understand Kushina's mood, because if they were to think from the perspective of others, if they were chosen to be the pillar of human power, they would be willing in their hearts.
It is not like Kushina, who is particularly repulsive and resistant.
Just looking at Kushina's appearance at this moment, they are not stupid, so naturally they won't say anything like "Isn't it supposed to make contributions to the village?"
After a moment, Kushina let go of her hand and got out of Mikoto's arms.
Her eyes were a little red, and she looked at Rose Tree and Minato, and said, "Now you know, what is the Human Power Column?"
"Just because the people of our vortex clan are most suitable for being human pillars, and I am born with a larger chakra than other clans, so I was determined to become the next generation of nine-tailed human pillars since I was a child, but no one asked me if I would rather or not."
Speaking of this, Kushina couldn't help but smiled self-deprecatingly.
"Yes, who would care about the idea of a helpless little girl?"
"Wait!" Hatsuki Mizuno suddenly thought of something and asked, "Kushina, you said before, your Uzumaki clan no longer exists, right?"
The rope tree next to him gently hit him with his elbow. It was too much to say this kind of hurtful thing after one time. Mizuno actually mentioned it again. Even the rope tree with low emotional intelligence knew that it was not right.
But Minato seems to be unable to care about these things at this moment. After seeing Kushina nodding, he said, "But just now you said that you don't have to become the next generation of Nine-Tail Human Resources Columns. So when Lord Uzumaki Mito dies, where should I find the next generation of Human Resources Columns?"
In fact, Minato wanted to say, how could the village agree to give up Kushina, the next generation of human resources pillar that had been cultivated for several years?
Isn’t it a big deal to do this with yourself?
Naruto and the senior executives in the village are not stupid, so how could they not make such a decision?
"Of course it was impossible." Kushina's excitement calmed down. At this time, she heard Minato's question, and she also said proudly: "But my teacher took action, and the teacher went to talk to Naruto and the others in person, and they all agreed."
"Kushina, I've just wanted to ask you, who is the teacher you mentioned?" Mikoto asked curiously, "Is it a ninja in the village?"
"No." Kushina shook her head and said, "The teacher opened a martial arts school in the village. She is the owner of the martial arts school. Didn't I say that before? I was kidnapped and the teacher saved me, and then I joined the teacher's school."
"Did you just become a disciple last night?" Mikoto said in surprise.
Kushina nodded and said, "Yes! The teacher is so good. Knowing that I don't want to be a human resource lord, I went to talk to Naruto and the others in person, and then they all agreed. And I have moved out of Grandma Mido like that and moved to the teacher. Grandma Mido didn't agree, but Naruto came to explain the situation to Grandma Mido and explained it to Grandma Mido. Grandma Mido asked me to move out."
ps: The power suddenly went off last night, making me unable to write. I wasted a leave note in tears. Oh~ I said too much and I was crying. This is the first chapter today, and there is another chapter to update yesterday.
Chapter completed!
