Hikaru Hokage

When returning to the camp with the sleeping Kushina in his arms, Hino saw Uchiha Mikoto chatting with the indignant Terumi Mei.

Without listening carefully to their conversation, just by observing their expressions, Hino Hikaru could roughly guess what happened.

And looking at it like this, it seems that this development is smoother than he imagined.

"Brother Hino..."

After hearing the footsteps, Uchiha Mikoto noticed Hino Hikaru coming back from the river and...

Kushina, who was barefoot and asleep in Hino Hikaru's arms.

Judging from the way Kushina was barefoot and with her trouser legs rolled up, she probably simply fell asleep, rather than fainting when she encountered some danger while going to the river.

That is to say...

Thinking of what Kushina had said to her before, and Uchiha Mikoto, who was already curious about Kushina's sudden acceptance of a male disciple, she instantly made a bold guess.

Kushina may have really broken up with Minato!

However, whether the relationship between Hino's younger brother and Kushina is simply a teacher and a disciple remains to be considered.

After all, the teacher fell asleep. As a disciple, Hino Hikaru was responsible for carrying the teacher back, which seemed to make sense.

only……

"If you are too excited during the day, you will easily fall asleep at night."

Hino Hikaru put the sleeping Kushina into the tent that Uchiha Mikoto had already laid out.

"Did she act like this when she was on missions before?"

It's just... Hikaru Hino sounded very boyfriend-like when he asked this question.

Commonly known as boyfriend power.

"No, before..."

Uchiha Mikoto shook her head. In the past, when she went on missions with Kushina, there were basically not many people who left the village, and even fewer missions to places outside the Land of Fire.

Where is the need to run around like this?

"I understand."

Is it because of the Jinchūriki...I forgot again.

It seems that Kushina is easily excited during this period.

I used to think that cannon fodder ninjas in the ninja world were quite miserable, but now that I think about it, it seems that ninjas who are tailed beast jinchūriki are even more miserable.

The so-called long-term pain must be greater than the short-term pain.

"Mikoto-san, did you give her the food?"

The topic changed, and after settling Kushina, Hino Hikaru turned his attention to Terumi Mei, who was still bound by chains.

No need to think about it, just looking at the girl's expression was enough to understand that the other party must be scolding him in his heart again.

"I already know the truth from Sister Mikoto, let me go, and I will help you deal with Orochimaru!"

Hum, even the teacher wants to attack, this guy is a complete pervert!

After seeing Hino Hikaru hugging Kushina, Terumi Mei's guilt towards Uchiha Mikoto turned into contempt for Hino Hikaru.

"Who knows if you really don't know or if you are pretending not to know."

"pretend?"

Uchiha Mikoto didn't feel like the girl's sobbing look was a lie.

"No, I really don't know!"

Because the Fourth Mizukage came to power and ended the years of bloody mist rule by the Third Mizukage, Terumi Mei was full of confidence in the Fourth Mizukage.

So I never thought that the essence of this mission was to kill a child.

However, no one else has ever mentioned this topic...

It's because of the blood mist policy that everyone's threshold for this is getting higher and higher, right?

Maybe even Master Yuan knew it, but he still let her come.

Terumi Mei suddenly felt a little sad.

Is it necessary to be so unscrupulous in the ninja world?

-

But in the end, Hino Hikaru let Terumi Mei go.

Otherwise, the main reason is that vigil is boring.

Moreover, in front of him, Terumi Mei could not sway him even if she tried her best.

But Terumi Mei, who was untied, suddenly turned around and ran away without even saying thank you.

"Where?"

Hino Hikaru grabbed the girl's skirt.

"abnormal!"

Terumi Mei held onto her long skirt, her face turned pale and flushed at times.

"..."

Hino Hikaru saw that Terumi Mei's hand was actually covering her belly instead of her skirt.

If you want to pee, just say so. You were so unrestrained in seducing him at the beginning, but now you have become so shameless.

"Just stay behind this tree, no one will look at you."

"You... what did you say?"

Terumi Mei gritted her teeth in anger.

How could a lady pee directly in a place like this, and in front of a man?

Even if he can't see it, the sound will...

"Don't forget, you are a prisoner now, don't try to escape."

Hino Hikaru has no time to worry about the girl solving her physical problems.

But if the other party runs away, it will bring a lot of unpredictable variables to tomorrow's mission.

"you……"

Does this guy just not trust me that much?

Who hit and who escaped?

Terumi Mei was a little angry, but she really couldn't disobey Hino Hikari at the moment.

Coupled with the fact that my body has reached its limit...

hateful!

"I will definitely kill you in the future!"

After hurriedly finding a nearby big tree, Terumi Mei squatted down in shame and anger.

By the way...water escape.

In order to make no sound, Terumi Mei used her chakra to control the water flow and poured it all on the bark of the tree.

Let the water flow down the bark of the tree, and the sound will be much quieter than hitting the dust or grass.

"No... no... there is..."

Uchiha Mikoto had a strange dream.

In the dream, she was grabbed by the waist by a man whose face could not be seen clearly, but whose figure looked like Hino Hikari...

All in all, not a good dream.

And she woke up suddenly.

"Kushina this guy..."

When she opened her eyes and realized that there was really an extra hand on her waist, Uchiha Mikoto was so frightened that her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

However, she soon noticed that the hand was not the hand of the person in her dream, but the palm of Kushina who was sleeping next to her.

"It's such a bad sleep state. He still looks like a child at such an old age."

Uchiha Mikoto glanced enviously at her friend who was sleeping peacefully.

It's great that Kyuubi's problem is no longer a problem, and there is no need to worry about her husband and children. She can even choose a little brother like Hino Hikari as her boyfriend instead of Minato.

Well……

Speaking of Hino Hikaru, Uchiha Mikoto thought of the dream just now, and then subconsciously explored her body with her hands.

Fortunately, there was no embarrassing reaction.

That's right, Itachi's things are the focus now, how can she think about these things?

-

Hino Hikaru is not very interested in girls who are still underdeveloped.

It is even more impossible to be as perverted as Terumi Meditation.

Therefore, before the girl could hide behind the tree, he had already returned to the campfire and waited quietly for dawn.

"..."

Terumi Mei came out from behind the tree and was relieved to find that Hino Hikari had already returned to the camp instead of watching her from the side.

But his face was still angry.

This guy is somewhat knowledgeable, but not much.

"Have things like what happened to Sister Mikoto always happened in the ninja world?"

After tidying up the hem of her skirt and tucking the area that had been torn by someone before, under her buttocks, Terumi Mei also sat by the bonfire.

However, out of consideration for her chastity, she moved to the side farthest from Hino Hikaru.

"Ah."

Hikaru Hino feels that this issue is not debatable.

Because children are easy to control, tailed beasts are actually often sealed within children.

Moreover, this is not only true for tailed beasts, but also for some forbidden arts or other powers.

Children who have been instilled with these powers are no longer regarded by some ninjas as human beings, but as instruments that contain power.

This kind of thing is indeed common in the ninja world.

"That's unquestionably wrong, right?"

"The fact that you can ask this question means that you already have the answer in your heart."

"Since it is wrong, it should not exist. I will find a way to convince Mizukage-sama after I go back..."

Kirigakure Village has finally abandoned the blood mist policy and is developing for the better.

Neither the Fourth Mizukage nor Master Genshi should do such a thing based on their status.

Otherwise, Kirigakure Village will never get rid of the title of Blood Mist Village.

"Most people thought about changing the world when they were young, but in the end they just fell in line with the world, or only changed themselves."

Hiruzen Sarutobi definitely didn't have the same thoughts when he was young and when he was old.

But eventually it went to decay.

Ohnoki seems to be the same way.

Or, in fact, in previous lives, such examples abounded.

"When you find that you can't convince anyone, will you still choose to persist?"
