I, the stepfather of the ninja world!

"Ah."

Xiang Xun pursed her lips and smiled, raised her head and drank the tea in one breath, and said: "Aye, I want to try again and try to catch up with Mikoto and the others as soon as possible!"

"no problem!"

Kimura agreed without hesitation, sat down at the desk, smiled, and quietly looked down at the pretty beauty with fiery red hair.

……

At noon, the three families gathered together for lunch.

Kimura announced in public the important news that he had become Karin's godfather.

Mikoto was very supportive and clapped to congratulate Karin for having a father.

Everyone applauded.

The children play together every day and have become as close as brothers and sisters. Now, Xiao Xianglin calls Kimura "Dad" and has completely integrated into this big family.

Kushina smiled and said, "In this case, we will be a family from now on!"

Mikoto smiled and nodded. Then, noticing that Xiang Xun frowned while chewing her food, she quickly asked, "Is there something wrong with the seasoning of the dish I made?"

Xiang Xun was startled and quickly shook her head: "It's my own problem. I drank too much tea this morning. Now my mouth is full of the fragrance of tea. Everything I eat tastes like tea. It's a bit weird."

Mikoto smiled and said, "You have to drink tea in moderation, otherwise it will harm your health."

Kimura's eyes twinkled, and he smiled and changed the subject: "To celebrate me becoming the children's father, I suggest that we go on vacation to the seaside together next week!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Mikoto and Kushina and said, "You two don't have jobs anyway, so you have a lot of free time. Xiangqian and I will submit our vacation application to the Hokage in the next few days. Then we can take the kids out for a trip and have a good time for a few days!"

Little Naruto and little Karin cheered happily when they heard that they were going out to play.

Little Yue'er is less than one year old. She can't speak and is very confused. She just babbles and laughs.

Mikoto certainly had no objection. She would definitely obey the head of the family when it came to important matters at home.

Xiang Xun had no objection either. She was flexible and had suffered a lot from wandering. Mu Muruno gave her an infinite sense of security, so she naturally regarded Mu Muruno as her backbone and obeyed his orders.

Kushina also had no objection. She had been stuck in the village for so long that she was almost going moldy! Now that Kimura was leading the way, it didn't matter even if little Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, left the village! He could be free!

Itachi raised his hand and said, "Father, I'm afraid I can't join in. The Hokage-sama will be giving Kabuto and I special training in a while."

Kimura nodded in agreement, then asked curiously, "You and Kabuto are training together, what about Anko?"

"Hokage-sama said that her talent is limited and we shouldn't make things difficult for her," Itachi replied.

Kimura couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. Then, an idea suddenly occurred to him and he suggested, "Why don't we invite my master to join us on this vacation? It'll be a token of my appreciation to my master as a disciple!"

Volume 187: Swimming to the Red Sea of ​​Bonds: Kushina’s bedroom smells even better!

On a whim, Kimurano wanted to invite Tsunade to go on a seaside vacation together.

Although I know it's hard to have anything romantic, it's definitely a good thing to increase the contact between each other. If a romantic coincidence happens during the vacation, it will be a big win!

Since we invited Tsunade, we couldn't ignore her followers. Shizune was inseparable from her, so naturally we had to invite her as well.

Kimura entrusted the important task of inviting these two people to Mikoto.

After all, a beach vacation is a bit sensitive, and it is easy to associate it with swimsuits or other more beautiful things. If it was proposed by Kimura, Tsunade would inevitably be wary. But if it was proposed by housewife Mikoto, this vacation would be more lifelike, less likely to make people think of it in the wrong way, and there would be a better chance of getting Tsunade's consent.

Mikoto gladly accepted the important task entrusted by Kimurano, and said that she would visit Tsunade's house in the afternoon and try her best to facilitate the master and disciple to travel together!

……

After lunch, Xiang Xun and Miqin cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash the utensils.

The rest of the people went for a walk in the yard to digest the food.

The three children are at a naughty age, especially little Naruto and little Yue'er, who have begun to show signs of being sworn enemies and often have small conflicts.

Itachi stood by, looking after his three younger brothers and sisters. Although he was only seven years old, he already had the composure of an adult, especially the two lines on his face, which made him look more mature.

Kushina looked at him from afar and praised him sincerely: "Itachi, you are a good brother, just like an adult!"

Kimura smiled and shook his head: "He is also a child, and his mental health cannot be ignored. The more outstanding the Uchiha, the more guidance he needs to avoid going to extremes."

Kushina raised her eyebrows slightly, "What about you? You have the bloodline limit of the Sharingan, which makes you an Uchiha."

Kimura smiled and nodded: "Of course I need guidance as well. That's why I am keen to get along with you, feel the beauty of life, draw abundant energy from it, and nourish my life."

Kushina grinned, looked up at the blue sky, and sighed softly, "Peace is so good! I didn't expect the Jinchūriki could go on vacation too!"

From the moment the tailed beast was sealed into the body, the Jinchūriki lost his freedom and no longer existed simply as a ninja, but also possessed the attributes of an explosive-grade weapon.

Not only do they suffer a lot themselves, but they also suffer discrimination from some misunderstandings in the village, carrying shackles that cannot be removed for their entire lives.

Kimura sighed and said, "The tradition of [Jinchūriki] is indeed anti-human. In the future, I will collect the tailed beasts one by one and completely eradicate the existence of Jinchūriki!"

Kushina looked slightly stunned: "The tailed beasts are a force that all the major ninja villages value very much. If you want to take them back, the resistance will be very, very great, and it may trigger another ninja world war!"

Kimura smiled and said, "At the beginning, the first Hokage distributed the tailed beasts in order to facilitate the signing of the Five Nations Agreement and to achieve peace!"

"However, as time passed, the tailed beasts did not bring peace, but instead became weapons for war. This is contrary to the original intention of the first Hokage."

"I will definitely retrieve the tailed beasts. As for the resistance from the major ninja villages, there might be some. No problem. When the time comes, I will convince them with my absolute strength!"

Kimura's tone was firm and decisive.

Kushina frowned, vaguely sensing his extreme as an Uchiha, and advised: "This is a serious matter. Once the four major ninja villages join forces, their strength cannot be underestimated. Especially Ōnoki's Dust Release, which is very tricky. Ano, you must be cautious!"

"Well, I will."

Kimura smiled and nodded.

In order to resist the distant Otsutsuki, it is imperative to collect the tailed beasts, revive the Ten-Tails, plant the sacred tree, and recycle the chakra of the ninja world!

However, in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki Nohara Rin had her heart pierced by Kakashi's Raikiri.

When a Jinchūriki dies, the tailed beast residing in his body dissipates and it takes more than ten years to revive.

In other words, we will have to wait for another ten years before finding the sacred tree, and there is no point in rushing.

Kimura's only task now is to continue connecting bonds, prolong his life, and wait for the future.

……

"Well, the sun is almost gone. I should go home and pack my things." Kushina stretched lazily.

"Package?" Kimura was a little confused.

"Yes, I went back to prepare the things needed for the seaside vacation." Kushina explained.

Kimura shook his head and laughed: "We're leaving next week and you're starting to pack today? You're too impatient!"

Kushina nodded: "Prepare in advance, so that you can check and fill in the gaps every day to avoid forgetting to bring it when you are in a hurry before going out."

Kimurano raised an eyebrow: "That makes sense!"

Kushina blinked and smiled playfully, "Actually, I'm just too excited! I haven't been out to play in a long, long time, I can't wait!"

"Haha, we will take vacations more frequently in the future, I promise!" Kimura said with a smile.

"Okay! Don't break the contract!" Kushina quickly finalized.

After all, whether she could leave the village depended entirely on the Wood Release Ninja Kimura. Only with the Wood Release Ninja accompanying her and watching over her, the village could barely let her go out.

"I'm going to go back first. Please help me bring Naruto back later."

Kushina left this sentence and went home happily.

Kimura watched her leave, then sat on the swing in the yard and watched the children play.

The warm sunshine dispels some of the winter chill, making the place cozy and comfortable.

……

Half an hour later, Kimura picked up little Naruto and took him home.

As they walked into the house, Kimura called out, "Kushina, I brought my son back!"

"I'm upstairs!"

Kushina's voice came down the stairs.

"Then I'll come up?" Kimura shouted again.

"It's up to you!" Kushina replied.

Satisfied, Kimura climbed up the stairs to the second floor.

He had never been here before today.

After all, the second floor is no longer a reception area, but a living area. As a man, it is not polite for Kimura to rashly enter the private area of ​​the Hokage's widow.

However, today with Kushina's permission, I can come up openly.

Of course, there is nothing new here for Kimura.

Most of the houses in the entire village were built by him using Wood Release. He knew the structure of the houses like the back of his hand.

Kimura knew which bedroom Kushina's was without even looking.

The door was ajar.

Kimura held little Naruto and pushed the door open and walked in.

What comes to your face is a faint fragrance that is refreshing.

Actually, Mikoto's room also had a scent, but Kimura and Mikoto had been married for so long that they had also been tainted by the scent, and gradually they could no longer smell it, and no longer felt it.

Other people’s bedrooms still smell better!

……

Volume 188: Swimming towards the Red Sea of ​​Bonds: Kimura is anxious!

Kushina was buried in the closet, busy packing her luggage, and had no time to pay attention to Kimura.

Therefore, Kimura was very free and could look around freely without any scruples.

Kushina was wearing a black short dress today, which was exquisitely cut and showed off her graceful figure perfectly.

At this moment, she was bent over, but her lower abdomen was still very smooth, and her waist was still very slender, without showing any excess fat.

Because she was bending over, the hem of her skirt was raised slightly.

As she moved, her skirt swayed slightly, casting a light shadow on her legs, mysterious and graceful.

If it was Mikoto in front of him, Kimura would definitely launch a surprise attack without hesitation.

Unfortunately, the person in front of him was Kushina.

Kimura couldn't do that, he could only look away, out of sight, out of mind.

The bedroom is spacious and clean. The overall tone is blue and soft, with a simple style and no fancy decorations.

The floor was covered with a brown and blue blanket, not a single spot was left out.

There was a bed on the wall opposite the door, the size of which was between a single bed and a double bed. Next to the bed was a baby bed with guardrails.

The big bed was filled with clothes, sweaters, shirts, skirts...all kinds of clothes, very messy.

Kimura glanced around casually, his eyes immediately falling on the endless array of underwear.

Although Kushina sometimes wears rather revealing clothes, she still has a bottom line. Kimura has basically never seen her underwear, at most she can see a little bit of suspenders on her shoulders.

Today, I had a feast for my eyes, but it was a pity that without Kushina wearing it, it was just a dead object after all.

Kimura's eyes wandered, and he quickly glanced at the lace, silk, strapless, front-button, back-button...

Kushina is still quite conservative and doesn't have any very sexy styles.

Mikoto was also very conservative originally, but under the influence of Kimura, she kept experimenting and is now able to handle various clothing styles with ease.

Kimura held little Naruto, walked to the bed, and put him in the crib. The little guy stayed in his own world, rolling around and entertaining himself.

On the bedside table stood a photo frame containing a picture of Kushina and Minato.

The background in the photo is the Hokage Face Rock. At that time, Minato's Face Rock had not been completed yet, and his smiling face just happened to block that empty space. That moment was frozen and became permanent.

Things are different now…

Kimura bowed his head in silence for a few seconds, then turned his head to look away.
