Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 560 The Real Reason Kushina Returned

Kushina Uzumaki rushed over in a hurry, of course, to support her son.

Since her son Naruto had finally confessed his feelings to a girl, she naturally had to come and support him.

However, it's unclear how much of this support stemmed from a genuine desire to see what kind of girl their son had taken a liking to.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Kushina Uzumaki would act like a shrew, directly siding with her son Naruto and ignoring everything else to start a fight with the other side.

After all, his son Naruto had confessed his feelings, so it was very likely that they would become family in the future. Therefore, it was definitely not good to make the relationship too strained.

So, Kushina Uzumaki dragged Naruto along and arrived at the entrance of the Hyuga residence early in the morning, hoping to meet Hiashi Hyuga.

To be fair, Hiashi Hyuga was very reluctant to see Kushina Uzumaki.

But as the saying goes, it's not shameful to put up with something for the sake of profit.

Considering Kushina Uzumaki and Minato Namikaze's current identities, Hiashi Hyuga quickly opened the door.

Kushina Uzumaki immediately bowed very gently to Hiashi Hyuga, indicating that she had come to apologize for Naruto's impetuous behavior.

What can Hyuga Hiashi do?

They've already put on such a humble attitude, how can you still shut them out?

If that's the case, then you've really offended people to death.

The Hyuga clan has always been a staunch fence-sitter.

This is what many people commonly refer to as "whoever wins, they'll help them."

When Yua first came to power, the Hyuga clan did try to sabotage him because of his unstable foundation.

However, after Yuya decided to concede profits to the ninja clan, these guys became one of the first clans to gravitate towards them.

The Hyuga clan embodies the spirit of being two-faced, waiting for the right price, and playing both sides—a fence-sitting style that is perfectly suited to their nature.

Of course, that was a matter concerning the previous head of the Hyuga clan, and has nothing to do with the current Hyuga Hiashi.

However, You Ya didn't care about any of that. He came here today to have some fun. He didn't care how it ended, but he was determined to enjoy the process.

Then Yua secretly followed Kushina Uzumaki into the Hyuga clan's residence.

A Hyuga clansman saw Yua, his eyes widened, and he was about to bow and greet him when Yua immediately gestured for him to be quiet, then gave him a look to indicate that he should not speak.

It roughly means: Don't talk, or you'll be cleaning toilets tomorrow.

The Hyuga ninja chickened out and could only watch as Yua secretly followed Kushina Uzumaki into the Hyuga clan's residence.

Then, when they arrived at the meeting room, Youya walked out confidently and directly.

"I received an invitation today to preside over matters between your two families. Well, I hope you can give me some face and not go too far."

Kushina Uzumaki and Hiashi Hyuga were both stunned for a moment, then simultaneously cursed inwardly:

How shameless! They even brought in the Naruto!

Yes, in their eyes, it must have been the other party who called the Hokage over.

So, Youya just sat down casually, openly and honestly.

That's the advantage of having a certain status; you can be on the front lines even when watching a spectacle.

Unfortunately, to Yua's disappointment, Kushina Uzumaki's tone left him speechless as soon as she opened her mouth.

"First of all, I sincerely apologize for the trouble my son Naruto has caused your family."

As she spoke, Kushina Uzumaki bowed her head in greeting.

Hiashi Hyuga was startled, but immediately returned the greeting, "No, no, no, it's nothing..."

A sense of unease began to creep into my mind.

Wasn't Kushina Uzumaki supposed to have a fiery temper?

This doesn't look like it at all.

Afterwards, Kushina apologized while reasoning with Hiashi Hyuga, explaining that her Naruto genuinely loved Hinata, and that since things had come to this point, perhaps...

How about we get engaged first?

Hiashi Hyuga finally couldn't hold back anymore. He was very angry, but Kushina Uzumaki had kept a very humble attitude. In the end, he could only say: "Don't think about engagement now. Hinata is still too young. We have to wait until Hinata is at least 18."

Kushina Uzumaki raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected that Hiashi Hyuga, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be such a doting father.

Kushina Uzumaki smiled and did not refute.

That's basically the end of the conversation.

Youya felt a bit disappointed. Was this all going to end like this? What a pity.

If they don't actually fight, at least they can have some verbal sparring.

Yua thought it was over, but Kushina Uzumaki's next sentence left him stunned.

"Now that we've finished discussing Naruto's matter, let's talk about our two families. The Hyuga clan has quite a few ninjas, and it's a bit of a waste to have them all stuck in the village handling various defense tasks. I wonder what the Hyuga clan head thinks of the suggestion to cooperate with us and send some Hyuga clan members to serve in various departments in the Land of Whirlpools?"

Upon hearing Kushina Uzumaki's words, Yua's first reaction was to look at her with horror.

This is definitely not Kushina Uzumaki! How could Kushina Uzumaki possibly utter such outrageous words with such clear political undertones?!

Hiashi Hyuga was clearly caught off guard; he stared blankly at Kushina Uzumaki, and after a long while, he only managed to utter one word:

"what?"

Kushina Uzumaki then repeated herself, adding, "Instead of continuing to serve as patrol and guards in this village, why not go to the Land of Whirlpools? There are plenty of places there where the Hyuga clan can showcase their talents."

Hiashi Hyuga finally came to his senses and looked at Yua with a nervous expression.

Yuya recovered and looked at Hyuga Hiashi with a smile: "I think this suggestion is very good, excellent. Head of the Hyuga family must consider it carefully."

Hiashi Hyuga swallowed hard, then looked at Kushina Uzumaki with an embarrassed smile: "I... I'll think about it carefully."

Kushina Uzumaki smiled and nodded, feeling that she had perfectly completed her mission today.

Then, her eyes sparkled as she looked at Hiashi Hyuga: "By the way, Hyuga clan leader, can I go see that child? The one my Naruto confessed to!"

Hiashi Hyuga was in no mood to care about Hinata's affairs at the moment. He gave a perfunctory reply that Hinata should be at the Hyuga clan's training grounds at this time, and then sent Kushina Uzumaki there.

Kushina Uzumaki left excitedly, and Yua watched her retreating figure with a deep smile on his face.

This is the Kushina we know and love. All those things she said before…

So it was you who taught him, Minato.
