Konoha Qiweiju

Weather on December 31, Konoha 34: Rain

It was the last day of the year and it rained heavily.

In the rain, a person was brought to Konoha.

I didn't go to see it, but I knew that that person was Kushina, who was about to inherit her sister's Kyuubi and become the new Kyuubi Jinchuuriki.

I don't know what kind of mentality I should use to face her.

In the Qiwei residence, Zhenxiu is constantly cooking.

Seven-star chef!

He's stuck.

"Why! Why! Why can't I break through the eight stars! As long as I break through the eight stars, I can save my sister with my cooking!"

Zhen Xiu punched the cutting board, and the cutting board shattered instantly.

It has been more than a month. He has closed the store and not seen anyone else, in order to upgrade as soon as possible.

But he still failed.

There is simply no way to succeed.

"System, how long will it take for me to be promoted to an eight-star chef?"

"With the host's current state of mind, there will be no chance in another hundred years."

"What!"

"Five-star chefs need to understand the chef's heart. Eight-star chefs need to have the chef's soul. Now you cannot master the chef's soul at all. You are still far away."

Zhen Xiu was stunned.

He stood there blankly, saying nothing.

"I can't even save the one I love, so what kind of chef am I?"

Zhen Xiu punched the wall of Qiweiju, and a crack was created in the Eight-Star Kitchen, which could withstand even shadow-level attacks.

But soon, the cracks returned.

Ta-ta.

There was a knock on the door.

Zhen Xiu came back to his senses.

"Xiao Zhen, are you there?"

The old voice gave Zhen Xiu a feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Squeak.

The door opened.

There was that old figure at the door.

Mito.

"Sister, why are you here?"

"I'm here to see you. Your kid hasn't visited me for more than a month. What's wrong? I dislike your sister. I'm old now and don't look good, so don't you want to come see me?"

"No, of course not, sister, I..."

Zhen Xiu was anxious for a moment and hurriedly explained.

But Mito smiled and shook his head and said: "Since it's not the case, then don't hide in this small room. I want to introduce him to you."

"good."

Zhen Xiu knew that there would be no big results if he stayed any longer.

By now, his cooking skills can no longer be improved through practice.

He needs to understand.

Only by understanding a lot of things can you become an eight-star chef.

Thousand Hands House.

True cultivation has not come for a long time.

Back in the room, Mito sat on a rocking chair.

Hashirama originally made it for Mito, and Mito has always liked it.

There was a squeaking sound and the rocking chair was shaking.

Mito sat on it, looking like he was peacefully passing through the years.

Zhen Xiu just watched quietly.

He didn't know how long he could look at Mito like this.

He originally thought that he had taken life and death lightly.

But now I realize that he just looked down upon the life and death of ordinary people.

As a special being like Mito, he couldn't take it lightly.

Apart from Mito, Tsunade is probably the only person in this world who can make him really care.

Zhenxiu thought of this and gave a bitter smile.

After all, I am still a layman.

"Xiao Zhen, what are you laughing at?"

"Nothing. I just suddenly understood myself."

"Um?"

Mito was puzzled.

Zhen Xiu had no intention of continuing and asked directly: "Sister, who do you want to introduce to me?"

"A little girl."

While talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Xiao Zhen, go and open the door."

"good."

When Zhenxiu opened the door, there were two people at the door.

One is an old acquaintance, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The other is a new face, red-haired Kushina.

"Teacher Zhenxiu, you are here too."

Seeing Zhen Xiu, Hiruzen said hello.

Shinshu nodded and his eyes fell on Kushina.

Kushina also looked at Shinshu curiously.

There is no other reason than that red hair.

In this village, Kushina has not seen anyone with red hair like herself.

I didn't expect to see it here.

"Teacher Shinshu, this is Uzumaki Kushina, is..."

Before Hiruzen could finish speaking, Shinsu waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to continue.

Shinshu squatted on the ground, stretched out his right hand, and gently touched Kushina's red hair.

Kushina was a little scared at first, but for some reason, she subconsciously did not avoid Shinshu's hand.

A warm feeling came from those broad hands.

"Kushina? I'm Uzumaki Shinsu, nice to meet you."

Zhenxiu's eyes turned into crescent moons when he smiled, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth also expanded to its maximum.

bona fide.

He is releasing kindness.

Seven points sincerity, three points attentiveness.

"Are you also from the Uzumaki clan?"

Kushina said in surprise.

Zhen Xiu nodded.

"Then why haven't I seen you?"

Kushina was a little strange.

There are not many people in the place where the Uzumaki clan lives in seclusion.

Kushina has seen it all.

But I have never seen a true practitioner, so I will inevitably feel strange.

"Because I've always been in Konoha."

Kushina suddenly realized.

Over there, Mito has already stood up.

"Is it Kushina? Come in."

Kushina walked in and was in the same room as Mito.

Shinshu and Hiruzen were standing in the courtyard.

"Hiruzen, after World War II, the situation in the village is relatively stable."

Shinsu suddenly asked, which surprised Hiruzen.

Because true practitioners would never ask such questions.

"Not bad. But World War II ended suddenly. I'm afraid World War III won't be too far away."

A look of worry appeared on Hiruzen's face.

"So do we need a new Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki?"

Hiruzen was silent.

But the meaning has been expressed.

"I see."

War is cruel.

In this short period of more than ten years, two ninja wars have broken out.

The warlike blood of the ninjas did not calm down.

A new war can break out at any time.

The atmosphere was silent for a while.

Mito and Kushina didn't know what they were talking about in the room, but the atmosphere seemed much more harmonious.

The meeting between the two was probably a friendly conversation between the new and old Jinchūriki.

Zhenxiu looked at the two figures in the room and thought about the next path.

Hiruzen did not stay long, there were still many things in Konoha waiting for him to deal with.

Being able to bring Kushina here is already a break from the busy schedule.

Another half hour passed after Hiruzen left, and Kushina came out. There was still confusion in her eyes, but she was no longer as scared as before.

"Xiao Zhen, please send Kushina back."

Naturally, Shinshu would not refuse Mito's request.

"Okay, sister, have a good rest."

Taking Kushina with him, Shinshu left the Senju Mansion.

But he did not send Kushina back immediately, but said: "Xiao Nai, it's almost noon, let me take you to have something to eat."

Kushina was worried, but she didn't refuse and nodded directly.

"good."
