Hostile to the Uchiha? Don't regret relocating your entire clan!

"Uh, I see..." Minato Namikaze scratched his head, unsure how to begin, and could only smile without saying a word.

Seeing his expression, Kushina Uzumaki waved her hand and said, "Fine, let me ask you, if you became Hokage, would you force someone to become a Jinchuriki under these circumstances?"

“Kushina, I think you’re getting a bit stuck in your own head. There must be other ways. Becoming a Jinchuriki doesn’t necessarily mean losing your freedom.” Minato’s eyes hardened again. “Besides, the Will of Fire tells us that sometimes, personal sacrifice is unavoidable for the sake of the village.”

"Okay, I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Knowing Minato Namikaze's personality, Kushina Uzumaki didn't ask any more questions and instead got up and left.

Yuzuru and Minato are her two best friends besides Mikoto, but now, faced with the same question, they give her two completely different answers.

What should she choose?

For a moment, Kushina Uzumaki was even more confused.

Perhaps Yuzuru is right; you can't find the answer to this kind of thing from other people's words. You can only figure it out yourself.

Chapter 12 Kidnapping

In a training ground.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, pipe in mouth, clapped his hands with a smile: "Minato, it's getting late, let's call it a day."

Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze immediately ran to Hiruzen Sarutobi's side, scratching his head somewhat embarrassedly: "Hokage-sama, I'm so sorry, I didn't keep track of the time."

Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand dismissively with a kind expression: "Jiraiya has been in Amegakure for so long, so as his teacher, I'll just fulfill my responsibility for him."

"I'm usually very busy, so I can only spare a little time to guide you occasionally. You can't be angry with me, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze quickly replied, "How could that be? It is my honor to receive guidance from the Hokage."

Seeing Minato Namikaze's expression, Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded in satisfaction, then, as if suddenly remembering something, raised his hand and slapped his forehead.

"Look at me, so senile, I almost forgot." After saying that, Hiruzen Sarutobi took out a letter from his pocket. "Minato, Kushina wrote me a letter not long ago. This is the reply. Could you please deliver it to Kushina for me?"

Minato Namikaze placed the letter in his pocket: "No problem, leave this to me."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked apologetic, as if he were a little embarrassed, and said, "It's so late, and I'm sorry to trouble you to make this trip."

"It's not hard work." Minato Namikaze glanced at the moon in the sky. "Then I'll go now."

Watching Minato Namikaze's departing figure, Hiruzen Sarutobi's smile gradually faded, as if he were muttering to himself, "Go."

In the darkness of night, the trees swayed without wind, and several figures disappeared from sight.

"Kushina, thank you for your hard work. It's so late and you still have to take care of this old woman."

"Grandma Mito, don't say that. You are my only family in this world. It is only right that I take care of you."

"And I don't have to carry out missions like other ninjas, so I'm not tired."

Under the dim light, Mito Uzumaki leaned against the headboard.

Her once youthful and beautiful appearance is long gone, replaced by a full head of silver hair and wrinkled skin.

Looking at Kushina Uzumaki busy in the room, Mito Uzumaki felt a pang of heartache.

Since Tsunade left the village, this huge manor has been left to be inhabited only by her and Kushina.

It's so unpredictable.

Just as Mito Uzumaki was lost in thought, Kushina Uzumaki had already finished tidying up. Holding the trash in her hands, she said cheerfully, "Grandma Mito, you should get some rest. I'm leaving now."

Watching Kushina Uzumaki leave through the door, Mito Uzumaki couldn't help but shake her head.

What a sensible and good child.

Unfortunately, the days to come are destined to be anything but peaceful.

As a Jinchuriki, even she is now all alone. Kushina's future path will probably be even more difficult.

Thinking back to the Senju clan's former glory, Mito Uzumaki couldn't help but sigh.

Sigh... How could things have turned out like this in just a few short years?

After leaving Mito Uzumaki's room, Kushina Uzumaki threw away the trash.

Walking through the land of the Thousand Hands tribe, she felt an emptiness in her heart.

She had thought about it many times these past few days, and finally decided to accept her fate.

Become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!

Although she really wanted to be a free and ordinary person, after arriving in Konoha, the Third Hokage always cared about her, tolerated her willfulness, and took good care of her life, like a kind old grandfather who always helped and taught her.

She can't be too selfish.

Even just to repay this kindness, she would stay in the village.

And as Minato said, there might be other ways to give her some freedom.

By the way, I should find some time to talk to Yuzuru about my decision.

Kushina Uzumaki silently made her plans.

Of course, even though she chose to continue being the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki, Kushina Uzumaki didn't think Yuzuru's idea was wrong.

Just as Yuzuru himself said, that's just how the Uchiha clan is.

I hope Yuzuru won't be angry with her.

Just as Kushina Uzumaki was lost in thought, three dark figures suddenly appeared beside her.

"who are you?"

Kushina Uzumaki cried out in surprise, and several shuriken flew from her hand.

He then prepared to form hand seals and release a ninjutsu in order to create an opportunity to escape.

Unfortunately, the enemy moved even faster.

Three people attacked her together, and before she could put up any effective resistance, a handkerchief was covered over her nose.

Immediately afterwards, Kushina Uzumaki fell into a deep sleep.

Uchiha Inahisa and Uchiha Yakumi silently followed behind their squad leader, Uchiha En.

Looking around, Uchiha Inahime couldn't help but mutter, "Shouldn't the night watch be rotated once a month?"

"It's been almost two months now, why are we still on night duty?"

For ninjas, the reversed day and night is a minor issue; the most crucial problem is that it makes training very inconvenient.

At this rate, when will they be able to become as strong as Captain Yuzuru?

Hearing Uchiha Inahisa's complaint, Uchiha Yakumi whispered, "It seems that Captain Yuzuru took the initiative to switch with Captain Rihi."

"Huh? Why?"

"I don't know, maybe it's to please my future father-in-law?"

"Hiss! That makes sense!"

"The smell of rice fires and medicine... what are you two whispering about? Focus!"

Upon hearing Uchiha En's reminder, Uchiha Inahashi and Uchiha Yakumi quickly shut up: "Understood, Captain."

Unbeknownst to them, after they left, three dark figures swiftly swept across the night in the distance...

"Finally it showed up."

In the darkness, Uchiha Yuzuru opened his eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips.

By the moonlight, he could clearly see Kushina Uzumaki being abducted by three people and speeding away from the village.

Without any hesitation, Uchiha Yuzuru picked up his long sword and quickly gave chase.

In the original story, in the 41st year of Konoha, Kushina Uzumaki was kidnapped by Kumogakure once.

Judging from the clothing and environment at the time, it should have been during the transition period between summer and autumn.

So recently, he has been taking advantage of his night shifts to keep watch near Kushina Uzumaki.

Today, he finally got what he'd been waiting for!

However, Yuzuru Uchiha did not rush to rescue Kushina Uzumaki, but instead secretly followed behind the group.

In the original work, this matter is full of doubts, and many details simply cannot withstand scrutiny.

If Uchiha Yuzuru tells Kushina about these doubts afterward, she will be completely disappointed with the Konoha leadership!

Chapter 13 Embracing a Sister Under the Moon

The moon hung high in the night sky, emitting a faint glow.

Several figures darted swiftly through the dense forest.

Uchiha Yuzuru chased after them for a short distance outside the village and saw scattered red hair fragments on the ground.

He picked up a few sticks and put them in his pocket, then looked at the messy footprints on the ground and sneered.

Even a genin who has just graduated from the ninja academy knows how to hide his true intentions to avoid being tracked.

However, these ninjas who kidnapped the future Jinchuriki from Konoha did not take any measures to conceal their whereabouts.

That was truly terrible acting.

Instead of gathering all the stray hairs, Yuzuru Uchiha simply gathered the stray hairs on the ground to make them more noticeable.

For the plan to be perfect, Minato Namikaze must be able to track down Kushina, just like in the original story.

They followed him all the way, and soon it was late at night. By then, they were already dozens of miles away from Konoha Village.

Feeling that it was about time, Uchiha Yuzuru stopped concealing his aura and sped forward.

Just moments after he appeared, three masked ninjas blocked his way.

"Halt! No passage ahead!"

The leading ninja stared coldly at Uchiha Yuzuru, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "Uchiha Yuzuru, what are you doing here?"

After saying that, without waiting for Uchiha Yuzuru's reply, he spoke coldly again: "You left the village late at night, did you have a secret order from the Hokage?"

Uchiha Yuzuru shook his head: "No."

The ANBU ninja said expressionlessly, "Leaving the village without orders is considered treason. Since we've discovered you, you'll have to come with us."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Yuzuru's lips curled up slightly, and he smiled, "Why would you think that you discovered me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his originally dark eyes transformed into crimson Mangekyou Sharingan.

The leader of the ANBU ninjas was taken aback at first, then his expression changed, and he said urgently, "Don't look into his eyes!"

Although it's unclear why Yuzuru Uchiha's eyes aren't the typical tomoe Sharingan, it doesn't prevent him from making the most appropriate judgment.

"It's no use, it's too late."

As soon as Uchiha Yuzuru finished speaking, the ANBU squad leader saw his two subordinates behind him stabbing each other in the chest with long swords.

"Damn it, is it an illusion?"

"when……"

Seeing his two men die instantly, the squad leader immediately retreated, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a signal flare.

At the same time, Uchiha Yuzuru had already arrived in front of him.

The ANBU ninja had no choice but to temporarily abandon his original action and slash at Uchiha Yuzuru with his sword.

But the next second, his eyes suddenly widened.

The Uchiha Yuzuru before him was like a phantom; his attack passed right through the opponent's body.

The ANBU ninja was shocked and frantically swung his long sword, slashing repeatedly at Uchiha Yuzuru's approaching body.

But unsurprisingly, they all failed.

"Are you messing around, bro?"

Uchiha Yuzuru approached the ANBU ninja and grabbed him by the neck.

The ANBU ninja's eyes widened in horror: "It's a physical form? How is that possible?!"

His attack passed right through Uchiha Yuzuru's body as if it were a phantom!
