281 Tsunade is pregnant with Menma's child, so Kushina is willing to accept Tsunade as her daughter-in-law
(See the picture in Chapter 280, see the picture in Chapter 280, see the picture in Chapter 280, important things should be said three times, um!)
Kurochu Raiga is as famous as Momochi Zabuza.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Hidden Ninja Swordsmen: "The Mist Hidden Ninja Swordsmen"...
The Master of Thunder Blade...
He is the ruler who rules this area and also the patriarch of the Black Hoe Clan.
Unlike other ninja clans, the "Kurochu Clan" absorbs outsiders. It is precisely because they constantly absorb fresh blood from the outside that they have maintained their current scale.
Blackhoe Thunderfang is a cold and cruel leader who treats his miners like slaves.
In his eyes, these miners were just tools for him to gain wealth, and their lives and deaths were not important.
Therefore, whenever a mining accident caused the death of a large number of miners, Black Hoe Lei Ya did not feel any guilt or sadness, but instead saw it as a good opportunity to eliminate the excess population.
He would also order his men to bury the miners alive just to amuse himself.
This excessive order caused an uproar in the mining area, but no one dared to openly oppose Black Hoe Leiya's decision. After all...
In the face of absolutely powerful violence, resistance will only bring a more tragic fate.
The burial ceremony began in a solemn atmosphere.
Black Hoe Lei Ya stood on a high place, watching all this, there was no sympathy or pity in his eyes, only joy.
He laughed...
He raised the Thunder Blade with both hands and summoned lightning...
His soldiers carried out his orders expressionlessly, throwing the bodies into the dug graves.
There were screams and cries coming from the tomb, but none of them could move Hei Chu Lei Ya's heart.
In his opinion, these sounds were just insignificant noises and not worth his attention.
After the burial ceremony, an atmosphere of depression and sadness permeated the mining area.
The miners worked silently, their hearts filled with fear and anxiety.
They knew that they had no protection or safety in this place and could become victims of Black Hoe Thunder Fang's cruel behavior at any time.
Naruko and Hinata hid behind a huge rock in the mine, their figures looming in the rain.
The sky was gloomy and the rain was pouring down, making crisp sounds as it hit the rocks, as if accompanying their reconnaissance mission.
Naruko and Hinata were wearing dark hooded raincoats with the brims pulled low, hiding most of their faces.
Hinata closed her eyes tightly, preparing to open her Byakugan.
As Hinata's Byakugan opened, her eyes became brighter, like two shining stars.
Her sight penetrated the thick rain and rock layers and reached the mine at the foot of the mountain.
There, under the dim light, the miners were working in the rain, their figures looked particularly haggard in the interweaving of rain and sweat.
It can be seen that this is an illegal mine. The rights of the miners are ruthlessly deprived. They pay a huge price here, but even three meals a day are a luxury.
And now, they have to work in bad weather.
Hinata's white eyes sparkled in the rainy night. She saw the exhausted figures and haggard faces of the miners, she saw the helplessness and despair in their eyes, and she also saw the tenacity and perseverance in their hearts...
This complex emotion made Hinata, who already had a kind heart, feel heartbroken and sad.
Time passed slowly in the rainy night as Naruko and Hinata continued to scout the mines.
As the investigation progressed, Naruko and Hinata gradually understood the situation in the mine: the miners here not only lived in poor conditions, but were also often bullied and exploited by the mine owners.
There is no salary, the working environment is extremely dangerous, and life safety is not guaranteed.
Under the force and coercion of the ninja, these miners had to endure the pain and torture in order to survive and could not escape.
The next day during the day, they continued to hide in the mine and observe the situation.
Naruko and Hinata communicated using lip language that made no sound.
Hinata: Where on earth did these ninjas come from?
Naruko: Kirigakure.
Hinata: Why did the Ninja from Kirigakure come here?
Naruko: The cruel blood mist policy of Kirigakure caused many ninjas to defect from Kirigakure. These ninjas should be the rebel ninjas of Kirigakure.
Hinata nodded in admiration, admiring Miss Naruko's erudition: Miss Naruko really knows everything.
However, Naruko's gaze grew darker.
She seemed to be thinking about something, and her mind recalled what Menma once said:
Don't ask if the bonfire should be burning, first ask if the cold and darkness are still there...
Don’t ask whether the kunai should be thrown away, first ask whether oppression and exploitation still exist...
If you want to know whether justice will have a future, first ask whether injustice still exists in the world today...
--------How can I turn my back on the suffering of others...
As Menma said, "Justice" and "empathy", like other human natures, are natural physiological and social qualities of human beings.
Even though Naruko is a member of the vested interest group, as an individual, she will sympathize with those who are suffering.
In Konoha Village, the sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and onto the streets.
In an ordinary house, Kushina was sitting by the window, playing with an exquisite jade pendant in her hand.
Her eyes were deep, as if she was thinking about something important.
She had been filled with mixed emotions ever since her son and Tsunade met.
She knew that Tsunade was an amazing ninja, but Tsunade's age was a hurdle that Kushina could not overcome.
Tsunade, once one of the three great ninjas of Konoha, was famous throughout the ninja world.
However, she was old enough to be Kushina's mother.
This left Kushina with mixed feelings after she found out about her son's relationship with Tsunade.
She was proud of her son's abilities, but also worried about Tsunade's age.
However, after learning that Tsunade is pregnant, Kushina gradually discovers...
It seems that it is not unacceptable? (Kushina wants to hold her grandson)
Although Tsunade is "a little older", her mental and physical condition are very good.
More importantly, she and Menma have a deep bond.
The two support and depend on each other.
Through the filter of "wanting to have a grandchild", Kushina gradually felt that Tsunade also had many advantages.
She thought of Tsunade's love and care for Mina, and saw the efforts she made for her family, which made Kushina feel deeply comforted.
When Tsunade came to Kushina again with joy and uneasiness, what she saw was Kushina's warm smile and concerned eyes.
Kushina took Tsunade's hand and said seriously: "Ahem, welcome to become a member of our family. I believe you will be a good mother and a good daughter-in-law."
Tsunade was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She knew that this was Kushina's recognition and acceptance of her.
She held Kushina's hand tightly and said firmly: "Don't worry, I will take good care of Menma and the baby in your belly."
However, are conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law so easy to resolve?
The so-called mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, that is...
As soon as old contradictions are resolved, new ones arise.
That's the relationship.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the streets of Konoha Village, casting long shadows.
In this peaceful village, a new dispute is unfolding.
The two parties in the dispute were Kushina and Tsunade.
Kushina, her long red hair was as hot as flames and her eyes were shining with determination.
She stood in front of the door, her hands clenched, as if trying to suppress the anger in her heart.
Tsunade looked calm, as if the dispute had nothing to do with her.
"Tsunade, since you are marrying my son, you should follow the customs of Konoha and change your surname to Uzumaki." There was an unquestionable firmness in Kushina's voice.
Tsunade frowned slightly, she did not agree with Kushina's point of view, but she also understood the mother's feelings.
So, she responded as calmly as possible: "Kushina, I understand your thoughts, but I don't think the surname is a criterion for marriage."
"What are you talking about?" Kushina's brows were furrowed, and her tone revealed dissatisfaction, "Marrying a husband is following the husband, this is a matter of course! Since you have become a member of Konoha, you should follow the customs of Konoha."
Tsunade sighed softly, she knew that this argument was inevitable.
She looked at Kushina, a determined gleam in her eyes.
“Kushina, I don’t deny this custom and tradition, but I think everyone has their own choices and insistence.
"I chose to keep my last name, not because I don't cherish the relationship between me and Menma, but because I think last names don't mean everything."
There was a hint of surprise in Kushina's eyes. She didn't seem to expect Tsunade to have such an idea, but she did not back down, but continued to stick to her point of view.
Tsunade smiled slightly, her tone showing calmness and confidence: "By the way, doesn't your last name follow that Minato brat? Are you really qualified to say that to me?"
Tsunade is a strong woman.
If Kushina hadn't mentioned this, Tsunade might have taken the initiative to make changes (for example: last name).
But if Kushina brought it up first, Tsunade would become rebellious.
Not only was she unwilling to comply with Kushina's wishes, she also wanted Menma to restore the surname "Senju" with her.
This really annoyed Kushina. She put her hands on her hips and said aggressively, "What's wrong with Uzumaki? Uzumaki is a big clan after all, and they can't wrong you."
Tsunade responded with the same reason that "the Senju are also a big clan".
The two were like water and fire, neither giving in to the other.
What is Menma doing at this moment?
In the feudal era, people’s nobility and social status were determined by their bloodline.
Bloodline is family.
This is the order of the times.
Classes are rigid, with distinctions between the noble and the humble, and cannot be broken by force or money. The ruling class is also afraid that someone will use force or money to break this order.
This is certainly not a society where money is everything.
Because many markets are not open, the social order does not recognize that "money is omnipotent" and does not even guarantee the security of private property.
It was common for nobles to find an excuse to swallow up merchants' property.
Businessmen are discriminated against in this era.
They are also in danger all the time.
Their status was far inferior to that of samurai. Even in terms of "political status" alone, merchants were not even as good as farmers (self-cultivating farmers).
They hate this era.
They long for "money talks all" to replace "family background"...
They long for the coming of an era where people laugh at poverty but not at prostitution...
They want all industries (markets) to be open to trade in currencies…
They want to step on the heads of these nobles...
