I'm drawing manga in Naruto

"You can ask the teacher directly."

Akabane sighed, unsure how to face her, and returned to Uzumaki Seigetsu's side in distress.

The little girl didn't know what had happened, but she could sense that Akabane wasn't happy, so she was unhappy too and didn't dare to ask.

It wasn't until they reached the gate that Akabane calmed down.

He figured it out: it's only nominal anyway, he could just have his parents adopt him as their goddaughter later.

You can still change your surname and stay at a boarding school!

perfect!

"Children, our Konoha Village is just ahead, look..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi turned around, pointed to the gate, and said to the children.

"Hey, that logo looks just like ours."

"The one in the middle is also a vortex."

"So Konoha Village looks exactly like the one in Akabane-nii's drawing."

These children, each with a comic book in hand, had already developed a curiosity about Konoha. Seeing the familiar vortex in the Konoha symbol now gave them an even stronger sense of belonging.

While this may not allow them to truly integrate into Konoha, it prevents them from developing feelings of resistance or wanting to go home.

Not only that, all the children looked at Akabane, chattering and asking about the meaning of the symbol.

"The Konoha symbol was established by the First Hokage and symbolizes the inseparable friendship between Konoha and the Uzumaki clan."

Akabane smiled and said, "In fact, the First Generation's wife was an elder of your Uzumaki clan."

"really?"

Even Uzumaki Seigetsu was somewhat surprised.

"It's true, my grandma's real name is Uzumaki Mito."

"Tsunade said smugly."

"So that's it."

"Tsunade's grandmother..."

"Tsunade-neechan, is Granny Mito pretty?"

The children quickly forgot about their initial arrival and joined in the conversation.

That's why we need to choose children.

They are pure and innocent, and although they have their own thoughts, they are easily changed and influenced.

“We’re going to see Grandma now, and when we do, please don’t be surprised.”

Tsunade wore a captivating smile.

She had great tolerance and patience for these children because she knew very well that they could not return to the Land of Whirlpools and that they would become part of Konoha in the future.

"Great! Great!"

"..."

Children never seem to have any worries, Akabane sighed inwardly, feeling a mix of unease and apprehension.

As Kiyotsuki's "guardian," he was ordered by the Third Hokage to go with him, and the other party was Mito Uzumaki... He hadn't thought about it before, but now Akabane felt that the scene was strange.

Chapter 62 The Mother-in-Law Can't Help

The group of children followed Tsunade to the camp and were immediately stunned by the situation of the Senju clan.

"Have we come to the wrong place?"

One boy spoke his mind frankly.

In the children's minds, the Senju clan represented the strongest family in the world, and their residences must be incredibly luxurious. But what they saw before them—

An ordinary, old courtyard, without a gate or family markings.

If it weren't for Tsunade leading the way, no outsider would have imagined that this was the once world-renowned Senju clan.

"Haha, my grandfather once said that our Senju clan doesn't do that kind of thing."

Tsunade laughed heartily, but her expression instantly turned cold as she turned to Akabane, who was leading the way, and said, "Let's go...someone!"

I didn't do it willingly... I'm so upset!

He sighed silently and led the way toward Mito Uzumaki's courtyard.

If he could, Akabane wouldn't want to see her, but if he didn't come to pay his respects now, he would be the one to suffer next time.

Well, I have to see him anyway.

As he walked, he tried to comfort and encourage himself.

Before even reaching the courtyard, just as Akabane turned the corner, he heard a sigh coming from inside: "A certain child hasn't visited in a long time. I wonder if he brought any gifts. Sigh... I'm getting old, and I'm really not well-liked anymore."

old?

Who do you think you are, old man!

Akabane felt a pang of resentment. She looked only thirty, yet she always spoke like an old woman; it was truly...

There were no substantial gifts, but there were a lot of special ones.

He stepped into the courtyard and said irritably.

"Oh, what's the gift?"

Mito Uzumaki rocked back and forth in her chair, looking completely relaxed.

"Ta-da! The gift is here!"

After a shout, Tsunade jumped in from outside the door.

The next second, clumps of red hair emerged from outside the door, followed by a series of unfamiliar yet adorable faces.

"These...these are all..."

Mito Uzumaki's face showed surprise, but after a moment of astonishment, she quickly regained her composure and calm.

She smiled serenely, sat upright, and her demeanor and bearing revealed the spirit of a princess of the Whirlpool Kingdom and the wife of the God of Ninjas.

"Children, come here and let Grandma see you..."

Her expression was calm, but her slightly trembling hands betrayed the excitement in her heart.

The group of children were somewhat timid, but Mito Uzumaki's beautiful appearance and red hair made them feel close to her.

Before long, the little girl was the first to step forward and walk towards her.

"Mother-in-law."

"Okay, okay! I know, you are Xiao Qingyue."

"You are Manami, Chiharu..."

Mito Uzumaki had seen her—she had seen photos of all the children of the Uzumaki clan.

His eyes swept across the faces, and he quickly matched each one with a name.

"Is it just them?"

She was somewhat disappointed, and a touch of sadness crept into her heart.

"Yes, only these ten children will come to Konoha."

Tsunade actually understood to some extent why these children came to Konoha.

She understood Mito's feelings perfectly, but she couldn't show too much sadness in front of the child—even though she herself was just a child.

"Tsunade, do they all live here with us?"

Mito Uzumaki's smile remained unchanged, but she paid even more attention to them.

"No, Xiao Qingyue lives at Akabane's house."

"Tsunade said irritably."

"what?"

Mito Uzumaki was stunned, her gaze sweeping towards Akabane.

What kind of operation is this?

However, she quickly realized what she meant, and after a moment of silence, she nodded and said, "I understand. It's not a bad choice for Xiao Qingyue to stay with the Anma clan."

She's very smart; she was just confused because she was worried.

As the daughter of the clan leader, how could the daimyo allow her to live in Konoha if she didn't do it this way?

"Alright, alright, let me show you around first, and point out where we live."

Tsunade led the children away because she knew that Mito Uzumaki definitely had something to say to Akabane.

The little girl followed Akabane, reluctant to leave.

"Go and see them. They're all your family here, so don't worry."

Akabane patted her head.

"Ah."

Whirlpool Moon turned around, then turned back to catch up with the main group.

Mito Uzumaki lay back in her chair, her expression seemingly changing instantly. She rocked back and forth for a while before finally speaking, "Why is she so clingy to you? And when you were in Konoha, didn't you ever bother to come see me? You finally did come, but empty-handed. Where's your manga?"

"..."

Akabane couldn't understand why Mito Uzumaki was so gentle to others, but treated him this way.

Is it because he's handsome?

At this moment, Mito Uzumaki sat up.

Akabane was only 10 years old, and her height was just at eye level with Akabane, who was sitting down. Akabane stared at Akabane and said, "I don't know what you're thinking, but I feel it's rather rude."

"How could that be... I just wanted to surprise my mother-in-law."

Akabane pulled out a manga from his pocket—chapter 11-15 of the manga he drew in Uzushioka Province, which he was just about to compile and send to Izumi Hiroshi Yamano.

The original copy!

Unfortunately, once it reached Mito Uzumaki, it was basically a waste of money.

"Oh~~~ This is the original artwork!"

Mito Uzumaki's eyes lit up, and she immediately sat up, her tone instantly softening, "I wasn't wrong about you, you're a good kid."

"..."

real!

A woman has at least two faces, otherwise she wouldn't be able to turn on someone so easily.

Akabane muttered to himself, then bravely forced a smile: "Grandma, please remember to print a copy and send it to Mr. Yamano so he can print and distribute it as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, child, your mother-in-law will take care of this little thing for you."

Mito said in a gentle tone.

"About Qingyue..."

Akabane hesitated for a moment, then finally asked.

"I'm quite relieved to leave Xiao Qingyue in your care... By the way, she mustn't pick up your laziness. As for the other one, they're both my children, and I can't help her with either."

Mito Uzumaki said softly.

???

What do I need your help with?

Akabane was thinking, "Holy crap, holy crap!" He hadn't even said a word, and this older woman had already filled in the blanks in her mind.

"Hey, you have to understand me. As a grandmother, I can't exactly tell her to be more tolerant, can I?"
