Naruto Death Hero

Because he had to take Uzumaki Kushina with him, Kurosaki Ichigo slowed down on his way, but even so, the two of them had arrived in Konoha a few days later.

Kurosaki and Ichigo had just arrived at the outskirts of Konoha when they were discovered by the ANBU lurking outside. They entered Konoha through a special passage and came to the Hokage's office.

At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen was the only one in the office, so after saying hello to him, Kurosaki Ichigo introduced Uzumaki Kushina: "This is the third generation Hokage of Konoha, you call him Hokage. Just be an adult."

"Hello, Hokage-sama," Uzumaki Kushina whispered.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was sitting on the large office chair, nodded and turned his attention to Uzumaki Kushina, who was hiding behind Ichigo Kurosaki because of some fear of life.

"Is this the child you chose, Ichigo?" Sarutobi Hiruzen asked.

"Yes," Kurosaki Ichigo replied, taking off the ANBU mask he was wearing, "Her name is Kushina, Uzumaki Kushina."

During this period of time, in order to prevent his identity from being leaked, Kurosaki Ichigo has been wearing a mask even on the way back to Konoha.

So when she saw him taking off his mask, Uzumaki Kushina couldn't help but look at him curiously.

"Be good, this will be your home from now on." Kurosaki Ichigo also noticed Uzumaki Kushina's eyes, so he smiled and touched her head.

Kurosaki Ichigo's smile was as warm and gentle as the sun, making Uzumaki Kushina's heart calm down a little, as if she had found a relative she could rely on.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath while holding his pipe in his mouth: "I believe in your vision, Ichigo."

As he spoke, he blew out a puff of smoke: "Then take Kushina to Mito-sama."

Before he finished speaking, the door to the Hokage's office was opened.

Two masked Anbu came in. They heard Sarutobi Hiruzen's instructions, so they were ready to step forward and take Uzumaki Kushina away.

However, although Uzumaki Kushina did not speak, she held Kurosaki Ichigo's thigh tightly and was unwilling to let go, expressing her thoughts with actions.

The two Anbu were in trouble and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen for help.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only smile bitterly: "Then you go with Kushina, Ichigo."

"Got it." Kurosaki Ichigo agreed, picked up Uzumaki Kushina and followed the two Anbu.

About ten minutes later, several people arrived at Konoha Hospital.

In the most advanced single ward of the hospital, Kurosaki Ichigo saw the rosy-faced and energetic Uzumaki Mito.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then walked into the ward with Uzumaki Kushina in his arms.

"Aunt Mito," Kurosaki Ichigo asked with a frown as he put down the girl in his arms.

Sitting on the hospital bed, Uzumaki Mito smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, just a little secret technique within the clan."

Although she spoke lightly, Kurosaki Ichigo knew that this so-called secret technique should be performed at the cost of burning her life force in order to restore her to this state.

But now that Uzumaki Mito had made a decision, he couldn't say anything more and could only remain silent for a while.

As soon as he lowered his head, Kurosaki Ichigo found Uzumaki Kushina looking at Uzumaki Mito curiously, so he introduced the two to each other: "Aunt Mito, this is Uzumaki Kushina I brought back from the Land of Uzumaki. Kushina, this is the senior of your Uzumaki clan, called Uzumaki Mito."

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes widened: "You...are you Mito-sama? I have heard stories about you from my parents before..."

"I am Uzumaki Mito, good boy, come here and let me see you." Uzumaki Mito couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the descendants of the clan, and smiled and waved to Uzumaki Kushina.

For such a kind woman, Uzumaki Kushina naturally couldn't help but feel close to her, but she still looked back at Kurosaki Ichigo, saw him nodded, and then ran to Uzumaki Mito.

Seeing the two women chatting in low voices, Kurosaki Ichigo wisely left the ward, leaving a private space for them.

After arriving outside the ward, Kurosaki Ichigo asked the ANBU responsible for guarding to go to the Hokage Tower to find him after the conversation inside, and then returned to the Hokage's office.

"You're back Ichigo." Sarutobi Hiruzen stood in front of the window and turned around when he heard the sound at the door.

Kurosaki Ichigo nodded: "Yes."

Then they both sat down.

After a moment of silence, Kurosaki Ichigo asked: "Speaking of which, where did Tsunade go?"

"Going to the front line," Sarutobi Hiruzen replied, "After all, she is still one of the commanders on the front line. If she disappears for too long, it will arouse suspicion."

Then he took another puff from his pipe: "And you also know that Mito-sama's affairs must be kept strictly confidential. Not even Tsunade can know about it."

"Oh." Kurosaki Ichigo responded.

The room fell silent again.

This time it was Sarutobi Hiruzen who spoke first: "How is the situation over there in the Country of Whirlpool?"

"It's very bad," Kurosaki Ichigo shook his head, "When I got there, the last group of Uzumaki clan members left in the Uzumaki Country had been surrounded and killed by the Mist Ninjas, and I only had time to save Kushina. Just people.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed: "The situation in the Country of Whirlpool is so critical."

Kurosaki Ichigo raised his eyelids: "Don't you know?"

"Of course I don't know," Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled bitterly, "Iwagakure Village seems to have realized that they are already trapped in a battle between beasts, so the recent battle has been very fierce. Even Yan and Koharu have run over. As a result, the village can’t even care about the situation in the Country of Whirlpool.”

As he spoke, he knocked the pipe in his hand and said, "To be honest, if Mito-sama hadn't been in bad condition, even I might have gone to the battlefield."

Kurosaki Ichigo frowned: "Is the pressure on the battlefield in Iwagakure really that great? With the strength of Iwagakure, it shouldn't be able to reach this point."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed: "We were also very surprised at first, until news came from Kumogakure some time ago, saying that a batch of supplies transported from Kirigakure to Iwagakure had been intercepted, and according to the rules from the captured Kirigakure, According to the information obtained from Shinobu, Kirigakure’s support for Iwagakure goes beyond this batch of supplies.”

"It seems that the Iwagakure battlefield is over here, and I have to teach Kirigakure a lesson." Kurosaki Ichigo narrowed his eyes.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded: "Yes, whether it is for the comrades who died on the battlefield in Iwagakure Village or for the country of Whirlpool, we should look for trouble in Kirigakure."

As he said this, he seemed to think of something: "I just don't know if we in Konoha will still have the strength to deal with Kirigakure after the war over there is over."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it," Kurosaki Ichigo changed the subject, "Have you decided when to transfer the tailed beasts?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally put down his pipe: "It's been decided, just in a week."

“Where is the location?”

"The location will be set in a secret location outside the village. There will be barriers and elite Anbu for protection," Sarutobi Hiruzen said seriously, "And I hope you can join this escort operation. "

"There is no problem for me to join the guard," Kurosaki Ichigo thought for a while, "But wouldn't it be better if the location is at the Senju Mansion?"

"Now is a sensitive period. We have to consider the situation of the Nine-Tails going berserk, so we set the location outside the village." Sarutobi Hiruzen explained, "What's more, Mito-sama has decided to donate the Senju Mansion to the village. , after all, after Mito-sama leaves, no one will live there anymore.”

Kurosaki Ichigo remained silent, but he couldn't help but think of the Senju Hashirama brothers.

At first, the Senju of the Forest was so powerful in the ninja world, but now it is so sparsely populated that even the Senju Mansion is uninhabited.

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have seen his thoughts: "Teachers Hashirama and Tobirama will not be sad for the decline of the Senju clan when they see the prosperity of Konoha."

"Maybe." Kurosaki Ichigo forced a smile.
