And on the other side
Of the Fire and Water Border Station
Metke Office
Hinata Yasuji, who had been waiting for news since the Onigumo Shuiyue left, was still waiting. He graduated from ninja school at the age of 12 until he turned 16 this year,
Four years of sea breeze. Before, he could go home three or five times a year,
But Kay-sensei became the person in charge of the station,
He couldn't go back for the New Year. Then,
Why was he working so hard? Wasn't it just to catch a big fish and make a contribution,
Then his beloved uncle Naruto would say in front of his biological uncle, I don't care whether you are the Hinata main family or the branch family, I only know that the Konoha Ninjas Hinata Yasuji is a good person, and he can be better.
The Hinata family had an iron law that had lasted for thousands of years,
Except for the clan leader and for the clan leader, everyone, no matter male or female, after the age of three,
Had to engrave a seal called the Caged Bird on their foreheads. With this seal, it was the branch family,
Without it, it was the main family. The seal made the main family always stronger than the branch family,
It also allowed the main family to control the life and death of the branch family at any time. In this way, there would be no more internal strife because of the death of the previous head of the family, and there would be no more internal strife among the children for the family property and power,
Thus ensuring the strength of the Hinata family.
In the world of Ninja, strength was the life of the family. The Onigumo of the Mist Hidden Village died in just a few years because of the internal strife.
Therefore, Yasuji didn't mind becoming a branch family too much. After all, it was fairer to see who had a good life than who their parents liked more. And as a younger brother, it was natural for him to help his older brother. And as an older brother,
Even if he was the young master of the main family,
When he saw that Hinata and Spark were in danger, didn't he still rush forward? He just didn't understand,
It had always been the strong guarding the weak,
It was also difficult for the weak to protect the strong.
So, why deliberately suppress the potential and ability of the branch family? If the branch family was used to protect the main family, shouldn't the branch family be as strong as possible?
"Yasuji, Yasuji?"
"Here."
"What's wrong with you?" Metke felt that Yasuji was very strange. Ever since Thor's class brought Onigiri Shuiyue to Konoha, he had been feeling a little troubled.
"No, no." Yasuji stared at the big package in Guy's hands. It was an important document for Konoha every day. "Sensei, hurry up and open it."
Guy opened the package with his personal seal and saw the award Konoha had given to Yasuji. "So this is what you were waiting for."
Yasuji wasn't in the mood to answer. The commendation order only contained verbal praise, but at the end, it added that Hinata Yasuji Chunin was allowed to return to Konoha with the Anbu unit that had recently changed. Tell him to go back, tell him to go back, tell him to go back!
"Yasuji, Yasuji?"
Yasuji tied up his hair, stepped onto the windowsill, opened the window, and jumped down from the top floor. He stretched out his limbs, creating a large white splash on the quiet sea. "Lee Luo Ke! Let's swim twenty thousand meters. The loser will have to do ten thousand sit-ups! "
Lee Luo Ke was so scared by Yasuji that he swallowed a mouthful of kelp. His teammates and classmates were clearly the cool and quiet type, but how could the future blue beast be afraid of a challenge? "Ten thousand times it is!"
"Hmph, ten thousand times. I hope you have the same enthusiasm when you get married in the future." Guy continued his work. Logistics, intelligence, General Staff, Anbu, security, and Naruto's office. He no longer needed Yasuji's help and could handle things on his own. However … Guy picked up Yasuji's commendation order. He didn't want to let Yasuji go back. "Hey, Ning — time, I haven't asked you. Do you really not want to stay at the base that much?"
"What are you talking about, Sensei Kai? It's not like I'm never coming back!"
"Oh, so you're coming back!" Guy retracted his head and cursed. "Why are you so excited about coming back!"
Yasuji laughed and swam down 100 meters in one breath. How could he not be excited? He really wanted to know how much Hinata Yasuji could grow if he didn't have the seal. Although the matter wasn't settled yet, since he was asked to go back, Hozuki Shuiyue, you must be valuable enough!
Konoha, Land of Fire.
Hozuki Shuiyue had already slept in Konoha for five nights. He was starting to get used to his new life. He was assigned to a unit in the middle of the second floor of the new dormitory building. It had one room, one living room, no kitchen, and a toilet. Although there was nothing more than a bed, a bedding, a wardrobe, a desk, and a chair, it was a thousand times better than sleeping in a cave. And except for reporting to the Anbu every day like he was going to school … and studying with the other ninjas who were taken in by Konoha at the same time, he was actually free to move around.
Of course, after a few days of trepidation, Shuiyue finally figured it out. Konoha was full of Anbu and cameras, and he also had Thor's coordinates. Even if he wanted to do something bad, he couldn't find a chance. But he didn't want to do anything bad. He just wanted to see Aromatic Phosphorus. No matter how fair Konoha's laws were, where there were people, there would be a privileged class. The leader of the Four Generations, Naruto, was said to be retired, but the adopted daughter of the Golden Flash was definitely a golden thigh.
However, Aromatic Phosphorus was harder to get in touch with than he thought. Without an invitation, he couldn't even pass the street of Hatake's old house. Even if he saw Aromatic Phosphorus walking a lion with two blonde men, the Anbu would block the road in advance and clear out a possible danger like him.
But after all, an adopted daughter was different from a real young master. After a few days of hard work, Eddy Phosphorus still saw Hozuki Shuiyue. He was so scared that his glasses fell off. "You, you, you!"
"Don't be afraid, I'm not here to negotiate with Orochimaru. I also came to Konoha to be a ninja. I don't want to be a traitor anymore."
"…"
"We agreed not to forget each other. You have to take care of me."
Eddy Phosphorus felt that his life was really magical. "My brother Kakashi really takes in anyone."
"It's more meaningful to take me in than to take you in. You're at most a research material, but I have political significance."
"Look at you?" Aromatic Phosphorus rubbed his glasses. "Political significance? Do you even know how to spell those two words?"
If it was in the past, Shuiyue would have already fought with Aromatic Phosphorus. But now, he had to pay attention to the Anbu following Aromatic Phosphorus. He wasn't sure if they were here to monitor or protect him. "Anyway, I'll be able to become a Konoha Ninjas after the exam in a few days. If you're doing well now, help me out. I want to start as a Genin and join a promising team. I heard that it's hard to get promoted in Konoha."
"It's really hard. Even Sasuke is still a Genin." Aromatic Phosphorus copied Naruto and pouted. "But where did you come from? You're a Genin."
"I have relatives and friends in Konoha. The captain of the Fifth Daimyo's guard, Momochi Zaiken, is from the same Water Country as me."
"Huh?"
"Why are you so surprised? I want to become Golden Flash's adopted son."
"You wish. I'm related to Watergate Daddy. My mother's surname is Uzumaki, and I'm the same as Naruto. "
"Okay, okay, you're amazing." Hozuki Shuiyue was even more jealous. "Then, Aromatic Phosphorus -san, are you a Chunin or a Genin now?"
"Hey!" Aromatic Phosphorus finally realized the big problem. "I don't know. I didn't ask."
Hozuki Shuiyue, the former master of Kirigakure, knew what was good for him. He looked at Aromatic Phosphorus's dress and was deeply suspicious. "Don't say that I didn't remind you. The girls of Ninja families are all dressed up beautifully for marriage, especially adopted daughters. Political marriages are more useful than biological daughters."
"Oh, marriage, that's right." Aromatic Phosphorus looked up and laughed. "Yes, I'm a woman who will marry into Uchiha sooner or later!"
"…" Shuiyue suddenly felt that Uchiha's Sasuke might be a bit unlucky. "In short …"
"No problem, a promising Genin team." Aromatic Phosphorus smiled strangely. "Sasuke has no teammates now. Do you want to come?"
"Oh, yes, yes, yes." Hozuki Shuiyue quickly nodded, then rolled his eyes and reached out to Aromatic Phosphorus. "Hehehe, Konoha's Genin team must have a medical Ninja."
"Hehehe, there's no medical Ninja better than me." Aromatic Phosphorus and Shuiyue high-fived and ran away. She wanted to go home and make Watergate Daddy happy. It's so good to have a father.
Watergate didn't know that his cheap daughter was thinking about him. He was standing in front of a big pit with great interest. It wasn't Payne's pit, but the foundation of Shinbo Mansion. "Kina, I picked a good place. The scenery is good, the place is big, and the land price is cheap. The money to buy a house down there can buy a large piece of land here. From the hill behind to the Naruto Rock in front, from the river on the left to the forest on the right, it's all Naruto's. "
Konoha, Land of Fire. Above the cliff of Naruto Rock, you can see the small plain of Konoha Village.
Kina Maelstrom rolled her eyes. Such a large piece of land was indeed enough for her son, grandson, and great-great-grandson to cause trouble for several generations. It was really in the middle of nowhere. How long would it take to buy groceries?
"It's a little far." Watergate tried to jump down from the foundation.
Yamato grabbed him. "Lord, you don't have Chakra anymore. Did you forget again?"
Watergate pushed Yamato away. "Then I won't sprain my ankle if I jump down three stories!"
"Yes, yes, yes, you won't sprain your ankle even if you have Chakra." Kina giggled. "Okay, okay, the sun is going to set. Let's go back and see what the children have made for you today."
"Okay." Watergate pulled Kina up, but they didn't go home.
Kina frowned. "Where are you going? Don't eat my Aromatic Phosphorus tomorrow. You have some stamina, but you don't rest well and run out all day. Hurry up and accumulate more stamina to cope with the blood loss. You still have a stomach surgery to do later. The day before yesterday, you had pain the whole night after eating a piece of iced watermelon. The sooner you cut it, the better. "
"Yes, yes, yes, the sooner you cut it, the better." Watergate sighed. "Isn't it just on the way today?"
"Where are we going?" Kina looked at Watergate picking wildflowers along the way and felt sweet in her heart. "Are they for me?"
"No."
"…"
"I've always only given you roses, okay? How can I give you this kind of little white flower that doesn't even have a name? It's inauspicious. "
Kina didn't say anything. Under Watergate's rule, picking flowers randomly was against the rules, but picking little white flowers that bloomed almost all year round was an exception. They were specially scattered seeds for people to pick and use as sacrifices. However, when Watergate took her to the Uchiha's residence and came to a tombstone, she said, "Nothing good happens when you meet the Uchiha. What's there to miss about this group of red-eyed people?"
Watergate felt even more depressed. "Kina, is Fugaku still alive?"
"No, he died without regrets. I think he died on the spot."
"Okay." Watergate sighed and admitted for the first time, "Dingzhuo, Zhiwei, and Hizashi are all my good friends. But Fugaku is probably the only confidant in my life. Ah, don't bite, it hurts! "
"I'm not your confidant?" Kina opened her mouth.
"You're my confidant and my soul mate." Watergate rubbed his chin. "Like son, like mother."
"My son doesn't bite!"
"Kakashi still has the scar of your son's bite on his hand."
"Kakashi deserves it. Who told him to make my son unhappy? I haven't even said anything about you yet! All you talk about is Kakashi. You care more about Kakashi than you do about Naruto! "
"I don't. I'm very good to my son. If you don't believe me, you can ask Naruto tonight."
"In front of you, our son …"
"Sure enough, you're talking to yourself."
Bo Fung Watergate looked at Mikoto Uchiha, who greeted him from afar, and nodded to Yamato. "It's time to cook. You're not cooking today?"
"Sasuke only dares to eat breakfast at home now."
"Then why don't you hurry up and chase away my Aromatic Phosphorus." Watergate smiled.
"Uzumaki Karin is a very cute little girl. Although she's had a rough childhood, she's still pure and innocent." Mikoto smiled.
Watergate pulled a long face. "Can't you help me persuade that child? Love isn't what she imagines at all."
"But Sasuke is indeed what she imagines."
Watergate sighed. "What about Itachi?"
Mikoto took the flowers from Watergate's hand and placed them in front of Fugaku's grave. "Kakashi isn't as thorough as you. If it were you, you wouldn't forget to ask Itachi to come back and pay respects to his father. "
"I can't control one Naruto. We don't talk about work when we eat together." Watergate spread his hands. "Sandaime set a bad example, so I have to set a good example. Otherwise, Naruto might as well change back to a lifelong position. What are you doing?"
"When I was young, I heard from the elders that when they were young, the people of the Fire Country would burn some of their old belongings after they died, so that they could continue to use them." Mikoto Uchiha lit up a Fugaku tactical vest in her hand. "But after the war, the things left behind by the dead could still be used by the living, so they all offered flowers."
Watergate wanted to say something but stopped. As the former Naruto, he would be crazy if he secretly burned something for Kina, but it would be a great waste if everyone did the same. Because in less than ten years, they wouldn't just burn clothes and daily necessities. It was recorded in the history books that the younger generation would burn the entire house out of guilt, sadness, and even competition, regardless of how the family lived. "Burn a few clothes for Fugaku, a set of Go, and some tea and wine. It'll be enough for him to play."
"I didn't want to burn anything for Fugaku in the first place." Mikoto raised her head. "They all said that you saw Kina, and then rushed into the house like a lunatic to take away Kina's old clothes and cosmetics and burn them. You even wanted to burn down Bo's house."
"I'm not crazy." Watergate casually explained.
"I believe you." Mikoto replied casually. "I believe that you're not crazy."
"…" Watergate didn't know how to deal with it.
Mikoto Uchiha squatted down and put the burning vest in her hand on the ground. "I watched Naruto grow up from a little boy to a big boy like Kina. I know that the child likes to play, play, and joke, but he's like you deep down. Watergate, haven't you noticed? Your son is becoming more and more like you. He keeps saying that he wants to do great things. If you really make him stay at home, cook, and mop the floor, he'll be happy. "
"…"
"Aromatic Phosphorus told me that it's very likely that Kina's mother is really there. Naruto also told Sasuke that his father isn't crazy. He touched his mother with his father's help. His mother has never left and has always been by his and his father's side. " Mikoto made a hand seal and spat out a small fire to burn the vest even more. "Of course Naruto will lie. Even my Sasuke knows that he can't tell the truth to his parents. But children won't lie to their friends, and there's no need for that, right? "
"…"
"So, I believe that Kina Maelstrom, you've always been by Watergate's side." Mikoto Uchiha's pupils, which were spinning with complicated patterns, looked at Watergate. "Are you behind Watergate now?"
"No, she's on top of my head, and she's standing on top of my head with one finger." This was the reason why he burned a pair of jeans for Kina. "Kina, is there anything you want to say to sister Mikoto?"
Kina Maelstrom jumped down and rode on Watergate's neck. "Ignore this ugly woman. Go home. It's cold when it gets dark, and you can't stand the wind."
Minato would never understand the friendship between women. Obviously, their relationship was not bad before. Whenever they met, they would praise each other as if they couldn't wait to praise each other to the heavens. "Cough, Chinai says hello Mikoto."
Mikoto smiled. "Hello to Kina."
Kina jumped down again and pinched Watergate's back. "Didn't I tell you to ignore her?"
Watergate's heart ached. The men in Konoha never understood why their women would suddenly quarrel. "Cough, sister Mikoto, let's talk later. I'll go back and have dinner first."
"Yes, you have to eat on time." Mikoto looked up and looked at Watergate's head. "Kina Maelstrom, let's make this short. If you've always been by Watergate's side, then you must have seen it, right? Since you've always been there, you must have seen many things that living people can't, right? Who was it that changed Fugaku's tea leaves? You must have seen it. "
The moon will be full next year.
