Konoha's Frozen Vortex

Chapter 243 Kushina and Minato
"The country of the vortex declared war on Konoha? What nonsense are they talking about, don't you think so, Minato? You who have just returned from the country of the vortex should have the most confidence to refute them!"

"Speaking of how the country of Vortex is now, how is Uncle Xuehui? You have to tell me well when you get home!"

Kushina said with a smile and chirping, she kept talking happily when the country of the vortex was mentioned.

Minato took a deep breath, the smile on his face disappeared, and said to Kushina in a deep voice:
"No, what they said is true. The country of Uzumaki declared war on Konoha, right in front of my eyes. That's why I rushed back to Konoha."

"Clap!"

Kushina subconsciously let go of the hand holding the bag, and the bag containing the items fell to the ground.

"Oh!"

The sound of the kitchen knife falling on the cutting board was heard, and before Kushina could react, the hunter Yukimura changed his usual peaceful appearance and looked at Minato with a sullen face.

"Can you guarantee that you didn't lie to us? Uzumaki really declared war on Konoha?"

Minato glanced at the other party in doubt, shocked by the other party's aura at this time, and wondered why a commoner reacted so strongly to the news of this ninja.

But out of good upbringing, he still nodded and replied:

"It's absolutely true, it's impossible for me to lie to Kushina."

"How could it be, it's impossible!" Jiuxinna froze in place and murmured.

Yukimura frowned, pondered for a while, and then said to Kushina:

"You and Minato go home first, I'll come find you later."

Minato looked at the conversation between the two suspiciously. He knew that this Orion named Yukimura had a very good relationship with Kushina, just like a brother and sister, and Kushina trusted him very much.

But he didn't pay much attention to a civilian hunter before, and he didn't notice the strangeness of the other party until today.

Suddenly, he noticed the other person's red hair, he was startled, and thought to himself:

"Could it be that Kushina didn't come to Konoha alone?!"

"That's right, no matter how you say it, Uzumaki will not give up any protection. It seems that the person in front of him is the person sent by Uzumaki Clan to secretly protect Kushina!"

"No wonder I can't detect the breath of a ninja in him, the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan..."

Minato secretly analyzed.

"Master Watergate."

Suddenly, he heard a familiar greeting.

Minato was pulled back from his thoughts, and looked down to see his proud disciple Kakashi standing in front of his eyes.

"Kakashi, hello." Minato smiled and replied.

And not far from the two.

"Yukimura, I'm here to find you!"

Matt Dai greeted Yukimura familiarly.

"Oh! It's Dai, took Kai and Kakashi out again today? But I'm sorry, I may not have time to entertain you today."

Yukimura said apologetically, while doing the work of closing the stall.

Unexpectedly, Matt Dai shook his head and said:

"Yukimura, I came here specially to find you. Do you know the news that Uzumura is about to attack Konoha?"

Yukimura was taken aback, and replied:

"I just found out, what? Don't you even want to go to the battlefield?"

"No no."

Matt Dai hastily waved his hand in denial, and then glanced at Kakashi who was chatting with Minato.

"Kai and I are both lower ninjas now. It is said that lower ninjas are not allowed to participate in this war. But Kakashi is a higher ninja. I am a little worried about him."

"Kakashi was recruited? Didn't he suffer that kind of blow before?"

Yukimura couldn't believe it.

"Because his teacher, Minato, is also going to join the battle, Kakashi offered to become a member of the Minato team."

Matedai ​​looked at the little adult Kakashi whose head was being touched by Minato, and sighed:

"You also know Kakashi's temperament, neither I, you nor Kai can persuade him."

"Indeed, after all, after his father died, you took him home and took care of him for so many years."

Yukimura agreed.

"Since he has made a decision, let's respect his choice. Kakashi is already an adult. With his teacher around, don't worry, nothing will happen."

Yukimura comforted.

Matt Dai did not answer, but looked at Yukimura.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Yukimura looked at Dai suspiciously, and then he was taken aback: "You want me to follow in secret?"

"Kai and I are both Konoha's ninjas, so we can't leave the village at will, but you are not, and no one knows your true identity except me and Kushina."

Matt Dai's meaning is obvious.

"Let me think about it..."

Yukimura was lost in thought, and replied to Matt Dai.

"Well, I am embarrassing you, then we will go first."

Matt Dai approached Yukimura and whispered:
"Xin Fan."

Then he took Kai who was still practicing handstand walking, greeted Minato and Kushina and left.

As for Kakashi, Minato stayed behind to have dinner together.

At the same time, after receiving the notification from Naruto Anbu, the major families are also preparing for this.

The sun family.

"I see."

After sending off Hokage's Anbu, the new patriarch Hinata Hizuru said to his younger brother Hinata Nishizai:
"Day difference."

"Well, let me go, brother."

Said day by day in a tacit understanding.

"The opponent is the country of Uzumaki, let the clansmen exercise restraint, and with the promise that Uzumaki-sama made to our Hyuga clan back then, it is enough for our Hyuga clan to do a good job of investigation with peace of mind."

Hinata Hizuru enjoined.

"Yes, brother."

In the clan land of the Zhuludie clan.

"Qufeng, do you want to join the battle? Absolutely not! Don't you know your body? Besides, you haven't been on the battlefield for so many years!"

Qiu Dao's application to take the wind was resolutely rejected by Qiu Dao Ding Zuo, the head of Qiu Dao's clan.

"Takekaze, I know Uzumaki and Uchiha mirror are both your fellow disciples, don't worry, the three of us decided to fight with Hokage-sama in person this time."

Yamanaka Kaiichi comforted Akimichi to take the wind.

"Well, but for us, there is also the variable Shikanosuke Nara that needs to be considered. My father and I mentioned him. It is said that he is one of the few wizards in our Nara family."

Nara Shikahisa pinched his mustache and murmured.

And in Konoha's most powerful Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Fugaku, who sent Anbu away, retreated from the others, sat in his seat, gently stroked the hair of his child Uchiha Itachi, and fell into deep thought.

"Is this the joke fate made on our family?"

"The Uchiha of Konoha, the Uchiha of Uzumaki, will face each other on the battlefield one day."

Fu Yue's complexion turned bitter. As the patriarch, he felt the pressure like a heavy burden.

"And the legendary Uchiha Mirror, Kaleidoscope Sharingan..."

Itachi Uchiha, who was still a child but experienced three World Wars because of his genius, stayed quietly beside his father, listening to Fuyue talking to himself, and silently made a decision in his heart.
