If you don't want to unify the ninja world, why are you crying about the ninja village system?

"You are the true body of the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

Kushina couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw the answer that Naruto had hesitated for so long to come up with.

"Hahaha--"

This made Naruto even more resolute in his inner thoughts.

"It's you, Nine-Tailed Fox..."

"Your smile is really rude! You actually want to turn into a woman to deceive me? Humph, I will stick to my original intention..."

Boom!

Kushina's fist smashed into Naruto's head.

She was furious: "That's not right!"

Feeling the ice cream cone rushing straight to the top of his head, Naruto covered his head and couldn't help but scream.

"A bag of——"

But soon he looked confused again.

"What?"

Would Kyuubi say something like this again?

Seeing Naruto's face full of pain, Kushina couldn't help but scratch her head and showed an apologetic expression.

"Sorry, I got excited all of a sudden."

"I am naturally impatient and I also speak very fast, so I have some strange catchphrases."

"Although I usually try to control myself, I can't help but say it when I get excited."

Kushina explained before looking at Naruto with concern.

"Why don't you stay here? Then jerk off more."

"You don't have any weird catchphrases like me, do you?"

Naruto blushed as he heard what Kushina said.

Is there? No...it's a big drop!

"That..."

Kushina looked at Naruto who still looked confused, and she couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

"It seems that Minato didn't say anything..."

"Really..."

At this moment, Naruto's lips could no longer be pursed, and he was trying hard to hold back the sound of his teeth trembling and colliding.

"Yes, I am yours... um~"

Before Kushina could finish her words, Naruto had already hugged her tightly.

Punch your dad when you see him and hug your mom when you see her.

This is my way of ninja!

Feeling Naruto's whole body trembling, he had already hugged himself tightly with both hands, but he didn't dare to use force because he seemed to be afraid of hurting himself.

Xinnai's expression calmed down, and he quietly enjoyed this rare moment of peace.

"I've always wanted to see your...mom..."

Naruto finally couldn't hold back any more and tears welled up in his eyes.

Kushina hugged Naruto gently, and her mind flashed back to when Naruto was a child, crying in her arms like this.

"Naruto...you have grown up..."

The mother and son met here. Kushina glanced at the already listless Nine-Tails, and seeing its appearance, she no longer used the Diamond Seal to control it.

This time there was some extra chakra, and the time she and Naruto spent together was slightly extended.

Naruto talked to her a lot here, from his parents' relationship, the bitterness of the Jinchūriki, to the situation of the masked man during the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

"Is he still alive..."

Naruto listened to the secrets his mother told him, and thought to himself that he would investigate the truth of what happened when he had the power.

As for being a Hokage...

Think about it later!

Naruto had already wavered without realizing it.

If the Nine-Tailed Fox hadn't been sealed in my mother's body, if the village hadn't forced my mother to bear all of this, I wouldn't have been alone since childhood, right?

Naruto was shocked by his own dark thoughts.

After all, he is now just Naruto of Konoha's 64th year, and he has just graduated from the Ninja Academy and become Naruto of Team .

The consciousness of fire within him was not as deep and firm as it would be later.

Suddenly, Kushina wiped her eyes, tears were flowing uncontrollably. She already felt that she didn't have much time left to stay here.

"Naruto……"

"Hmm?" Naruto came out of his thoughts.

"I still have a lot to say to you..." Kushina's tone was full of helplessness and regret.

"I want to live with you...Naruto...I love you..."

"I'm sorry, forgive me...I can't live with you, can't give you more love..."

Hearing his mother's crying tone, Naruto could no longer hold back. His eyes quickly turned red, and tears kept pouring out of his eyes and sliding down his cheeks.

He first wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, but the tears kept flowing, as if they could not be stopped.

He tried to wipe them away with his hands, but the tears still kept flowing.

In the end, he could only cover his eyes with his sleeves, not wanting his mother to see him crying.

"Naruto... don't cry... boys, be strong... take your hands away quickly and let mommy see you again, okay?"

Naruto's hands trembled slightly as he slowly moved his sleeves away, revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes.

He tried hard to control his emotions, but couldn't help but shed tears.

"Mom, I love you too..." Naruto said with a sob, his voice full of sorrow and reluctance.

Kushina reached out and gently pressed down Naruto's arm, staring at her son in front of her without blinking, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance deeply into her mind.

Her voice was gentle and trembling: "Thank you for being my child...Naruto..."

Every word here is filled with deep love.

"Thank you for letting me be a mother..." Tears rolled down her eyes, but her eyes were still full of warmth and love.

Naruto listened to his mother's words quietly, as if something was blocking his heart, and his heart was torn as if by a knife.

His tears flowed uncontrollably again, streaking down his cheeks.

"As a child, you are able to come to my side, Red Bean Paste...Arigato..." Kushina's voice was choked with sobs, and she expressed her love for her son in the most sincere words.

She has a lot more to say.

She hadn't had the chance to ask Naruto whether he had listened to her instructions to eat on time and be obedient... Unfortunately, there was not enough time, and these words could only remain in her heart forever and could never be conveyed to Naruto.

She felt extremely sorry, but there was nothing she could do.

How she wished she could hug Naruto again and feel his warm body temperature.

But when she stretched out her hand, she found that her fingers had begun to turn into powder and slowly floated away in the air.

Kushina realized that she could no longer stay in this world and that this was her last chance to connect with Naruto.

She tried to grab Naruto and give him a hug, but her body refused to obey her and gradually dissipated.

Her body gradually became transparent, like a wisp of smoke, slowly disappearing into the air.

She turned into the purest energy, carrying her blessings and concerns for Naruto, and slowly disappeared in this space of consciousness.

Naruto just stood there quietly, watching everything in front of him silently.

Tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes, and his heart was filled with pain and reluctance.

He knew that this was the last time he would see his mother. From then on, they would be separated by the Yin and Yang and would never see each other again.

He remembered the loneliness and solitude of his childhood, and the days when he was discriminated against and ignored.

He had fantasized countless times, how great it would be if he could meet his parents one day?

Now, this wish has finally come true, but...why is happiness so short-lived? So fleeting?

Naruto closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself.

"Masked man..."

He suddenly felt relieved.

Join the Empire! Since Naruto in the Empire is so strong, I can be as strong as him!

At that time, I will have enough power to find out the truth about my parents' death and... protect the people I care about!
