Chapter 168: Take out the capital to help us (Subscribe)
This child, can you please not...
Looking at Kushina's embarrassed look, Tsunade couldn't help but frown.
This won't be...
Tsunade's expression was slightly cold. Seeing Tsunade like this, Kushina knew that she was thinking wrongly. She quickly pulled Tsunade aside and quickly explained for Kushina.
"So that's it."
Tsunade frowned slightly.
Now Sakura's team is about to arrive. The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Kushina over there wants to stay here, but we won't talk about Kushina for now.
It's basically impossible for Minato Namikaze to get out of prison alone.
Moreover, this time Kushina left the team, left Sakura's team behind and arrived in Konoha first.
Being pregnant at this critical moment, I will inevitably be gossiped about even after I return home.
Not only that, Namikaze Minato released Uzumaki Menma, so he is the sinner of Konoha.
This child will be criticized as soon as he is born.
Kushina has to raise it all by herself.
"This……"
Tsunade's brows furrowed and she looked at Jiu Xing in front of her with some helplessness.
"Let her think about it carefully. After all, this is her child..."
—
"Don't think too much, Sister Kushina."
"You should think carefully about this child."
“After all, this is not a trivial matter.”
After returning home, Jiu Xing looked at the red-haired woman in front of him with a conflicted look on his face.
The child in her belly never appeared in the original work.
In other words, if Minato Namikaze and Kushina had not died, Naruto would most likely still have a younger brother or sister.
"Okay, no matter what the result is this time, I owe you something, sister."
Kushina looked at the big boy in front of her and spoke with some complexity.
"What is our relationship? Do we need to say this?"
Jiu Xing looked at the woman in front of her who was forcing a smile and gave her a forced smile.
"Jiu Xing, it's my luck to meet you..."
Kushina nodded slightly, and her hand couldn't help but reach out to Kyuuki's forehead as she had done before.
Unlike before, when Kushina could touch Kyuuki's forehead with ease, this time she needed to raise her hand to touch Kyuuki's forehead.
And Kyuuki lowered his head slightly, allowing Kushina's hand to touch his forehead more easily.
Seeing the child who used to jump up and down in front of her become someone who is considerate of others now, Kushina's frowning brows finally relaxed at this moment.
"Sister Kushina, please go and rest with Xun."
"I'll go with you to the old man tomorrow."
Jiu Xing was a little worried when looking at Kushina in front of him. Although he had just talked with Tsunade, the woman in front of him was a pregnant woman after all.
"No need. If you go with me, the Sandaime Hokage might think I kidnapped you."
Kushina looked at Jiu Xing who was concerned about her and made a rare joke.
Watching Kaoru taking Kushina back to the house, Kushina also went back alone, somewhat helplessly.
Kushina, this matter is too complicated.
It is not an exaggeration to say that when it rains it pours.
If she rescued Minato Namikaze from that Konoha, based on Kushina's understanding of Minato Namikaze, he would probably commit suicide.
Menma Uzumaki is a very popular person now. The power of the Nine-Tails was witnessed by the entire ninja world during the last war.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also made it clear that he didn't want to let go.
But it is obvious that the other Konoha definitely does not want to let go.
In this case, the relationship will definitely not be harmonious.
Moreover, the other party would never just sit there and watch their own Jinchūriki being taken away. They would definitely take action.
Once friction arises, or once one party's goal is not achieved.
By the time……
Jiu Xing looked at the room where Uzumaki Menma was and his eyes narrowed.
A war on a plane level...
Jiu Xing sighed, not knowing why things turned out like this.
And there is also Dawn on my side, who will definitely get involved.
After all, the dragon vein is within the sphere of influence of Dawn.
And we still don’t know whether Uchiha Madara, the ninja from the opposing world, has any backup plan.
Um, wait…
The one on the other side is a limited Tsukuyomi world, or does Hashirama Senju have a back-up plan???
Outrageous...
next day
Haruno Sakura breathed lightly and looked at the familiar Konoha gate in front of her.
Ever since Kushina disappeared from her sight, she took Uzumaki Karin and Uchiha Sasuke and rushed straight to Konoha, the Land of Fire, and arrived at their destination overnight.
"Xiang Ling."
"receive."
As a companion for many years, Haruno Sakura understood the other party's intention with just one look.
Uzumaki Karing directly opened the Kagura Heart's Eye, and its perception range directly covered the entire Konoha.
"Found it, Kushina-senpai is in Konoha right now."
Uzumaki Karin frowned slightly.
At the same time, she also sensed an extremely familiar chakra.
This chakra is...
Uzumaki Karin couldn't help but feel a little dazed. The last time she came here, she didn't notice this chakra. She just sensed Uzumaki Menma's chakra and hurriedly closed Kagura's mind's eye.
"Xiangling, what's wrong?"
Uchiha Sasuke, who was standing by, noticed Xiangling's abnormality and subconsciously moved directly to her. He took her hand while she was not paying attention and said affectionately:
"No matter what happens, I will always stand by you."
"Get lost, you bastard."
Uzumaki Karing shook off Uchiha Sasuke and looked at her hand that had just been held, considering whether she should chop it off directly.
"Xiangling, no matter how much you dislike me now." "I believe that my sincerity will move you sooner or later. After all, there is a saying that sincerity can move mountains and rocks."
Uchiha Sasuke gently lifted up Uzumaki Karin and placed a lock of Karin's hair on his nose as he sniffed the scent of the red hair.
However, there was only a flash of knife light, and the strand of red hair in Uchiha Sasuke's hand was broken into pieces.
"Get out of here, you pervert!"
Uzumaki Karing held a kunai in her hand and stabbed the servile man.
However, two slender fingers caught the kunai directly and steadily.
"Okay, let's not make fun of ourselves and go."
Sometimes Haruno Sakura really feels so powerless having to deal with two such teammates.
But there was nothing he could do. In the village, apart from Menma Uzumaki, there were only these two people who were the same age as him and could keep up with his strength.
As for that hot-blooded idiot Kakashi Hatake and that decadent man Might Guy, just forget about them.
When Haruno Sakura and the other two arrived at the Hokage building, they saw a red-haired figure waiting for them there.
Uzumaki Kushina.
Looking at the senior who had left the team without permission, Haruno Sakura frowned slightly but didn't say much.
"Aunt Kushina, why did you leave alone before? Do you know that we were almost dying of anxiety?"
Uzumaki Karing and Kushina belong to the same Uzumaki clan, and Kushina often takes care of Uzumaki Karing on a daily basis.
So Xiangling still respects Kushina very much.
"It's just a little personal matter."
Kushina didn't say much. In her opinion, what was about to happen could be regarded as a betrayal of Konoha.
But she had to do this. If Menma was taken back, he would definitely die...
Not only Minato Namikaze made this decision, Kushina was also not willing to let Menma go back.
What mother can watch her child die?
"In that case, let's go in."
Haruno Sakura looked at Kushina in front of her and nodded slightly.
At the same time, she felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.
I have a feeling that there will be some unexpected situations regarding Uzumaki Menma this time.
As the group entered the Hokage Building, a special staff member soon led them back into the reception room.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Tsunade had been waiting here for a long time.
However, Uzumaki Kyuyuki, who had been asking to see Kushina, was not present.
Haruno Sakura looked at the two people in front of her and said calmly:
"Third generation, all our people have arrived."
"Excuse me, when will the Uzumaki Kyuyuki arrive?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen had already learned about Kushina's attitude from Tsunade. He couldn't help but curl his lips slightly and said:
"It's like this. Jiu Xing is temporarily unable to be present due to personal reasons, so Tsunade will be negotiating on his behalf this time."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's words made Haruno Sakura feel even more uneasy.
He had previously said that he would not talk to anyone other than Kushina, but now Kushina has arrived, but Uzumaki Kyuuki is absent.
Something must have happened last night.
Glancing at Uzumaki Kushina, Haruno Sakura couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
It’s not that she wanted to doubt Uzumaki Kushina, but the current situation was too strange.
I can't stand her thinking too much.
What's more, Uzumaki Kushina is not stupid. She naturally knows that once Uzumaki Menma returns to Konoha, his fate will never be good.
This is a mother, Menma Uzumaki's mother.
Tsunade watched as several people sat down and her eyes fell on Haruno Sakura.
She naturally knew that this girl was the leader of the team in front of her.
Moreover, she also learned from Uzumaki Kushina yesterday that this Haruno Sakura was the daughter of the Fourth Hokage of their place.
His illusion techniques, sword techniques, and medical ninjutsu are all top-notch.
It is an absolutely difficult existence.
"It took a lot of manpower and resources on our part to capture Uzumaki Menma."
"And Uzumaki Menma destroyed the Sand Village before that."
"Let's not talk about the Sand Village for now."
"I just want to ask, what price can you offer to redeem the perfect Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Tsunade specifically emphasized the last perfect Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Haruno Sakura looked at Tsunade who came straight to the point and replied calmly:
"Menma Uzumaki is a very evil person."
"He once fired a Tailed Beast Ball at Konoha. I believe you all know what level the Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball is."
"We let him escape this time. We originally wanted to capture the Nine-Tailed Fox directly, but we didn't expect you to catch him first."
"If you can hand Menma Uzumaki over to us, our Konoha will naturally help your Konoha."
“We will work together to overcome difficulties.”
Haruno Sakura's words were quite beautiful.
But if you listen carefully, you will find that there is no mention of the price for redeeming Uzumaki Menma.
It's just a way to get something for nothing.
"Girl, do you overestimate yourself?"
Tsunade's tone suddenly became sharp, and her phoenix eyes were full of mockery.
"The Konoha where I live is one of the two poles of the ninja world!"
"The setting sun that can confront the Alliance Dawn head-on and gain the upper hand!"
"The Fire Kingdom and the Water Kingdom, these two richest kingdoms belong to the setting sun."
"Want to help us?"
"You must first provide the capital to help us!"
"Just because of your words, you want me to spit out the meat in my mouth?"
"Do you think you are too naive?!"
Looking at Lady Tsunade in front of her, who was completely different from her own Fifth Hokage, Haruno Sakura's expression changed slightly.
The other party looked so confident that it was obvious that he was not going to hand over the Nine-Tailed Fox just like that.
