Kushina!

Uzumaki Kushina, long time no see.

Although Reika has been using the hair dye method taught by Toneri to cover up her red hair, she is a member of the Uzumaki clan after all, and Kushina feels a natural closeness to her from the bottom of her heart.

And Kushina has also become Reika's only friend in Konoha besides Toneri.

Even if it's just because of Kushina's hair, Reika thinks she is trustworthy.

Gently opening the door, she saw Reika and Kushina sitting at the table chatting. The table was filled with various dishes, waiting for Toneri to come back.

"Toner, you are finally back! We have been waiting for you for a long time. If sister Lingxiang hadn't said that she must wait for you, we would have started eating long ago."

Kushina looked at ease with her boldness, without any sense of being a guest and seeing her host.

Lingxiang obediently stood up and took out three sets of bowls and chopsticks.

Toneri looked at Kushina, "How are you? Are you busy lately?"

As soon as she mentioned this, Kushina's face became a little embarrassed and ugly.

She watched the people she knew around her go to the battlefield one by one, but she could only stay in Konoha like those newly graduated ninjas and was not allowed to leave even half a step.

Even if Kushina's strength reaches the level of jounin or even higher, she is still a force that cannot be ignored for Konoha.

Even when her Chuunin and even Genin friends went to the battlefield to fight for Konoha, she could only stay in Konoha.

Of course Toneri knew the reason. Just because of her identity, her identity as the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, no matter how powerful she was, Konoha would not let her go to the battlefield until the last moment.

And when she goes to the battlefield, it means that Konoha is not far away from defeat.

The Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki is Konoha's last trump card and nuclear weapon.

With Kushina's efforts over the years, she was barely able to communicate with Kyuubi to a certain extent, but she was still far from being able to use the power of Kyuubi, and more efforts were needed.

Therefore, once she is allowed to go to the battlefield to use the power of the Nine-Tails, Konoha's top brass cannot guarantee whether she can be sealed again.

Since she couldn't go to the battlefield, she certainly wasn't busy, so when Toneri asked her if she was busy, Kushina's face became a little ugly.

She also heard about Toneri's great achievements on the battlefield of the Kingdom of Rain. When walking on the street, she could occasionally hear others discussing topics about Toneri.

As a friend, she was sincerely proud of Toneri's achievements. She was also worried about the dangers Toneri would face on the battlefield. At the same time, she was also worried about his ability to show his strength on the battlefield and for Konoha.

And fighting feels envious.

Kushina's ideal has never changed, and that is to become the first Hokage of Konoha.

But if she doesn't go to the battlefield, doesn't make military exploits, and doesn't let more people know and recognize her, how can she become Hokage?

Shiren's words undoubtedly touched the tightest chord in her heart.

However, as a good friend who has known him for so many years, she also knew that Toneri was joking. She just felt that her fists were itchy and she couldn't hold back the Vajra Blockade.

Jingle bell, jingle bell——

Hearing the crisp sound of the chain, Toneri couldn't help but change his expression, showed a slightly flattering smile, and gave Kushina a big chicken drumstick, "Kushina, don't be idle, eat quickly! Eat! Reixiang

My craftsmanship is really getting better and better.”

He is still the familiar Toneri, who is very talkative, but has a very high desire to survive at critical moments.

For a moment, Kushina had nowhere to vent her anger, so she could only vent her anger on the big chicken legs that Toneri had given her. She took a few vicious bites and stared at him.

He muttered, "Sister Lingxiang is here to give you some face!"

Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Lingxiang covered her mouth and couldn't help laughing.

In fact, it's not just Toner who enjoys this leisurely life, but Lingxiang also enjoys it. No matter how many meals he cooks every time, no matter whether it tastes good or not, there is always someone who will solve it all and make an appointment.

Two true friends, chatting, noisy, and very at ease and comfortable.

A crisis that he accidentally caused was resolved in time. Shiren breathed a long sigh of relief, took a few mouthfuls of rice in the bowl, and calmed down his shock.

With a thought in his mind, he asked, "By the way, where is Minato?"

Kushina stopped moving her hands, and a blush appeared on her face unconsciously. Seeing his appearance, Toneri narrowed his eyes slightly.

Something fishy!

Suddenly, a kind of gossipy heart of the new youth of the 21st century came to mind.

He turned to look at Lingxiang next to him, wanting to see if he knew something about the situation. After all, between good best friends, they should talk about everything.

When Lingxiang saw Toneri's questioning look, she suddenly felt entangled in her heart. On one side was her best friend, and on the other side was her boss, benefactor, guide, and...

Okay, it's pretty obvious which one is lighter and which is heavier.

After thinking about it, she made fists with her two hands hidden under the table, raised her thumbs up, then brought her thumbs to face each other and bent them slightly.

In an instant, Shiren understood.

An ambiguous smile suddenly appeared on his face. Looking at Kushina who didn't know what to say for a while, the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

She was a little embarrassed to be looked at by Toneri, but as a female man, Kushina had nothing to be afraid of.

Bang!!

Slap the table.

He raised his head and neck, neither looking at Toneri nor at Reika, but shouted: "Water... Minato... Of course Minato is also on the battlefield!"

The one you say is justified and the other one is loud and powerful.

Sheren can guarantee that this is definitely not what she originally wanted to say.

But it doesn't matter, he has already guessed the general situation. It can only be said that the self-correction ability of the ninja world is still very strong, and it has not been affected by his own existence.

He guessed that it was the relationship that Kushina and Minato developed while studying with Jiraiya.

After all, after they met, it was a pure friendship between the three of them. Maybe Minato was a little interested in Kushina, while Toneri just fell in love with her sealing technique, and Kushina probably had no feelings for either of them.

, if there is, it may be that her identity as a Jinchuriki gives her a sense of identity.

"Oh? Minato went to the battlefield, where did he go?" Toneri raised his eyebrows.

Kushina barely glanced at the joking smile on his face and knew that she had been tricked again, but this time she walked in on her own.

Reluctantly calming down his restless heart, he took a few bites of the chicken legs again and said angrily, "I went to the Moon Kingdom battlefield to fight against Kumogakure Village with Mr. Jiraiya!

Those two bastards clearly agreed to take me with them at the beginning, but they both ran away when they woke up. Let me see them next time..."

Kakaka——

He clenched his fists, showing off his familiar side.

"Okay, okay." Shiren waved his hand.

Kushina's situation is special. As a Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen is willing to let her leave Konoha, Danzo and the other two Hokage advisors who make bad ideas all day long will not agree.

Even with Kushina's physique and sealing technique, she can seal the Kyuubi without any pressure. Even if the Kyuubi goes berserk, she can suppress it for a long time.

But it's still not allowed.

Kushina's previous Jinchuriki Uzumaki Mito never left Konoha after becoming the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki. Naturally, in the eyes of those old guys, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki should not leave Konoha.

As for Toneri, the two-tailed Jinchuuriki, because he can completely control the power of the two-tails, he is quite special, and the Sarutobi Hiruzen cannot and are unwilling to limit it.

"Let's get down to business. Since you're here, it saves me the trouble of looking for you.

Let me talk to the guy in your body. You chat with Lingxiang first. I will end it soon. If it goes well, maybe it can let you be relatively free. If everything goes well...

Let me talk first and then talk."

Hearing this, Kushina's eyes lit up, and then became a little solemn.

"Are you serious? He's not an easy person to talk to."

Toneri smiled and nodded, "It's okay. Even if it's hard to talk to, it can't hurt me."
