Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

"Don't worry, I've already added it."

Mikoto and Tsukiki's words were rather bland, focusing mainly on Itachi.

"Really? No wonder it's gotten a bit heavier."

Tsukiki smiled and gently pressed her forehead against Itachi's.

Tsukiki inexplicably liked this action, as if it were sharing and passing on everything about herself to the past, all of it.

Itachi nudged Tsukiki with his hands and feet, and burst into laughter again.

"Haha."

The father and son chuckled softly. Mikoto looked at the two of them, then at their clasped hands.

The breeze was just right, brushing against my cheek and bringing a kiss.

The family of three walked home along this short stretch of road, feeling so content and happy.

"Grandma's back, and Yue Shu is here!"

When we got home, Grandma could barely walk anymore due to her health condition. She would walk around the house with a cane and usually rested well.

"Good good!"

Grandma said "good" three times in a row, a smile on her kind face, her wrinkles filled with warm concern.

Tsukiki and Mikoto went over to help their grandmother.

I get up in the morning, prepare a nice breakfast, take care of Grandma, and then prepare the milk, just waiting for my little darling to wake up.

Looking at Itachi's adorable appearance when he woke up in the morning, when he was still crying, he looked incredibly cute.

You could watch Mikoto a hundred times and still not get used to it.

Then play with Itachi, take Itachi out for a stroll, since Itachi likes to go out and play, and then wait for that man to come.

Then the weasel, yelping, staggered toward the moon tree.

I watched this scene unfold from the sidelines, a scene I had been eagerly anticipating.

All of this has already been achieved.

Mikoto has already achieved her dream, and this is the picture. She doesn't have a grand dream like Kushina, and she never thought about becoming the first female Hokage. She just wants a peaceful and ordinary life.

"Look, Mom seems to be spacing out."

"Ouch!"

When I came to my senses, two faces, one large and one small, appeared before me.

Snapped.

The little weasel placed its tiny hands and feet on Mikoto's face.

Mikoto smiled and gently nuzzled her head into Itachi's belly, causing Itachi to fuss.

"Mikoto, I'm here!"

Amidst their playful antics, a voice came from outside the door. Tsuki and Mikoto recognized it immediately—it was Kushina.

Ninjas naturally have missions to perform, but Tsuki has already made it clear that he wants to be a wife and mother and hasn't gone on any more missions, even taking Mikoto with him. Minato, being the Hokage, is even less able to do anything about Tsuki.

However, Kushina and the others still had missions. Sometimes Kushina would go on missions, while Tsuki and Mikoto would stay in Konoha.

"Kushina, welcome back."

Holding Itachi, Tsukiki and Mikoto went to open the door for Kushina.

"Hehe, I just got back and came over."

Kushina laughed heartily. Unlike Mikoto, even though she liked Tsuki, she never gave up her dream of becoming the female Hokage, especially after seeing Minato become Hokage, which ignited her fighting spirit.

"You're back, so eat here. We'll have lunch later and then dinner together. You can also stay here."

Tsukiki ruffled Kushina's hair.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Kushina gave a soft "hmm" in agreement.

"Oh, right, Tsukiki."

"Ok?"

"Let's move in here together."

"Hey?"

"Because Itachi is here, right? And Mikoto is here too."

Tsukiki looked at Kushina, and finally smiled: "Okay."

Mikoto watched from the side with a happy expression. Now the person she liked would live under the same roof with her. Her grandmother was there, as were Tsukiki and Kushina.

I'm already happy enough.

From now on, Mikoto's house welcomes several new guests.

"I'm going to have a good meal later."

"Okay, okay, I'll make them all for you."

Chapter 274: Daily Life (Part Two)

"Things have been peaceful lately."

Minato, as usual, got up with the sun, quickly washed up, and then began his day's work.

He put on the divine robe, which was printed with the words "Fourth Hokage".

"So handsome."

Minato looked at his reflection in the mirror, nodded, and tugged at the hem of his sacred robe.

"Flying Thunder God".

With everything ready, Minato used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport directly into the Hokage's office.

Outside the window, the sun had already illuminated the sky, and everything looked as if it were just waking up, full of vitality.

"It's a beautiful day today."

Shuimen looked out the window for a while, smiled, and then sat back down in his office chair.

It's time to start work again today, with more announcements and tasks, big and small.

The job of the Hokage is no easy task; it's not something that can be done casually. Being in a high position, one can't just sit around doing nothing. After all, the Hokage is the leader of the entire village and represents the whole village.

Things are actually not so bad now, unlike during Boruto. Back then, Konoha was undergoing a technological revolution, and the Hokage had a lot of work to do. Now, during Minato's time, there aren't as many things to do. He was just extremely busy a while ago, since it was not long after the Third Shinobi World War.

Now, several months have passed, and things are gradually fading away and getting better.

Taking a sip of tea, I realized that most of the work at the water gate was already done. Today's workload wasn't heavy; it was relatively light.

thump thump————

A knock sounded, and Shuimen gestured for them to come in.

"Lord Hokage, excuse me."

"What's wrong."

Minato's secretary, the head of the Nara family, or rather, the Nara family members officially became hereditary Hokage secretaries from this time onward, specifically responsible for assisting the Hokage.

“Your friend brought you a letter, which you saw at the front gate this morning.”

Minato took the envelope that was handed to him, and the secretary also withdrew.

Actually, Minato knew who sent the letter without even asking.

Minato doesn't have many friends, just one, Tsukiki. He basically doesn't have any other friends, except for his seniors.

"What is Yue Shu up to now?"

Minato smiled helplessly. It's always been like this. Tsukuyomi always comes up with something new and interesting, including the use of chakra, which was proposed and first used by Tsukuyomi. Tsukuyomi always comes up with a lot of these strange ideas.

Minato sighed, opened the envelope, and surprisingly found several sheets of paper inside, not just one.

"To my best friend, Minato."

Minato smiled; Tsukiki's writing was actually quite good.

Minato slowly looked down, his eyes flickering and his expression changing several times.

"This guy has a lot of clever ideas."

Minato read through all the papers in one go.

“Good idea, but now is not the right time to unite with other ninja villages. However, it is not impossible to try it in Konoha.”

"By the way, so it's not like the Chunin Exams can't be used."

Shuimen stood up and looked out the window at the people coming and going, which looked so lively and harmonious.

"I'm so bored, I don't even want to do the tasks right now."

Kushina lay in the living room, completely listless.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. It's almost summer now. I bought some watermelon. Let's have some, and so should Tsukiki."

Kushina was just like a salted fish, that's just a metaphor, but Tsukiki has already become a salted fish.

"dad."

Tsukiki lay limp in the courtyard passageway, while Itachi walked back and forth on her body and shook her.

Itachi is now half a year old and can walk much more steadily.

"Moon Tree, hurry up and find something to do."

Kushina said.

The moon tree slowly opened its mouth, sounding weak and listless.

"Isn't salted fish good?"

"hurry up!"
