The Hyuga clan that started in Konoha

At this moment, Xianglin felt mixed emotions.

She even thought she was hallucinating!

Otherwise, how could she escape from Kusagakure, find her tribe, and have her mother back in one day?

It can be said that Xianglin doesn’t know how to express the emotions in her heart now.

So, she remained silent.

And Kushina just stared at Karin, wanting to get an answer.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Xianglin's trembling voice was heard.

"You, what you said, is it true?"

There were tears in her eyes, but Xianglin tried hard to hold them back and not let them flow.

She was afraid that everything now was just a dream.

When you wake up from the dream, everything will return to normal.

As for Kushina, after seeing the hopeful expression on Karin's face, she already knew what the other party's answer was.

"As long as you are willing, from today on, you are my Uzumaki Kushina's daughter! You will always be my daughter!"

Kushina smiled and gave Karin a reassuring answer again.

But even so, Xianglin still has some doubts about this.

It was not until she used the fingernails of her right hand to scratch the back of her left hand hard, leaving a bloody mark, that the pain made her completely believe that everything happening before her eyes was true!

"Mom~!"

A cry filled with countless emotions came out of Xianglin's mouth at this moment.

To be honest, in Karin's heart, she is absolutely willing to recognize Kushina as her mother.

Because firstly, strictly speaking, Kushina is indeed a senior of her Uzumaki clan; secondly, the other party is willing to accept her and tell her so many secrets.

This made Karin have no objection to calling Kushina "Mom" at all.

"=(′｀*)))Alas."

After responding to Karin's call, Kushina showed a kind smile on her face.

At this moment, the tears in Xianglin's eyes could no longer be suppressed and rolled down.

And she threw herself into Kushina's arms.

The whimpering sound like that of a small animal began to be heard in the ward.

"Alright, alright, Karin, you'll have a family from now on. I won't let anyone bully you anymore! And those who bullied you in the past, I'll make them pay the price!"

Kushina said domineeringly as she patted Karin's shaking shoulder.

Kushina decided to avenge Karin for the suffering she had endured in Kusagakure Village on behalf of her newly adopted daughter!

Anyway, Konoha was almost ready to attack the Kusagakure Village. In that case, she would choose to go to the Kusagakure Village in person this time!

After hearing what Kushina said, Karin felt a long-lost sense of happiness in her heart.

"Is this what it feels like to have your mom again? I never want to lose her again!"

At this moment, Xianglin secretly swore in her heart that she would protect this family with her own life!

Afterwards, the two people, who had evolved from a senior-senior relationship to a mother-daughter relationship, continued to talk about various secrets.

It feels like there are countless words I want to say in my heart.

Of course, Karin was the one doing most of the talking, while Kushina listened with a loving look on her face.

During this time, the water door outside the ward quietly opened a crack, and a look at the mother and daughter hugging each other inside.

"It seems like things are going well! But it feels a bit strange to suddenly have a daughter.

It's weird! "

After closing the door of the ward again, Minato raised a smile.

He still didn't choose to go in now.

After all, if he went in, Xianglin would inevitably feel embarrassed.

If that's the case, it would be better to take it slow and wait until Karin has completely accepted everything before having a good talk with her.

In the ward, time slowly passed as Kushina and Karin, mother and daughter, talked.

Chapter 949 Naruto, you are going to be a younger brother!

While Kushina adopted Karin as her adopted daughter, the third Chunin Exam was still going on.

However, the subsequent first rounds of competition were never as exciting as the first one.

Among them, among the well-known Genin, in addition to Rock Lee and Karin who were eliminated, Chojuro was also eliminated because he had the misfortune of meeting Naruto.

Kiba met Chinano and was directly controlled to death by the Blood Dragon Eye illusion. He had a "man-dog battle" with Akamaru and was also eliminated.

The others all passed the first round smoothly.

Gaara, one of the five strongest candidates, faced an ordinary Taki-nin against his opponent, and did not eliminate any well-known Genin.

Well, that Taki Shinobu is anonymous, and no one will remember his name.

Just like that, the first day of the third Chunin Exam had passed, and all candidates had completed the first round of the competition.

Of course, some people are happy and some are worried.

I guess few of those who were eliminated will be in a good mood.

However, judging by the current mood, the competition should become more intense starting from the second day.

After all, those who were eliminated on the first day, except for a few unlucky ones, were the weaker candidates among all the candidates.

And as this group of people are eliminated, the following games will definitely become more exciting.

As the sun gradually set and the Third Hokage announced the end of today's competition, all the spectators lined up to leave reluctantly.

"Is this the Chunin Exam? I feel like many people's strengths are far beyond Chunin, right?"

"Yeah, I think so too."

"Nonsense, this is already the third Chunin Exam. Anyone who can still compete now is definitely qualified to be promoted to Chunin!"

"If it is in a small ninja village, I even think that the candidates who can participate in the third Chunin exam can actually become Chunin, and some of them are more than enough to be promoted to Jonin."

"That's right! Unfortunately, this is a Chunin Exam jointly held by the three major ninja villages of Konoha, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure. The difficulty of the selection is definitely higher than usual."

"In today's competition, I actually felt that the performances of several candidates were far superior to the other candidates!"

"Yes! Like Hyuga Neji in the first match, and the five people who came after him, Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto, Gaara, and China, they feel like they are not on the same level as the other candidates!"

“I thought I was the only one who discovered it…”

"Then let's look forward to their subsequent fights!"

“I believe tomorrow’s game will be even more exciting!”

. . . . . .

When the show is over, audiences would gather in groups of three or four to discuss today’s game.

Not only ordinary people, but also daimyo and nobles are the same!

Although this is only a Chunin exam, only Genin can participate.

However, ninjas possess extraordinary powers after all.

Even if he is just a Genin, if he wants to deal with ordinary people, he can easily defeat a hundred people alone.

However, ninjas of this size actually still constitute a minority in the entire ninja world.

Don't forget, even in the original novel's Fourth Ninja World War, the Allied Ninja Forces only managed to gather 80,000 ninjas at most.

Even if we include the ninjas left behind in each ninja village, I believe the total number would be around 100,000 at most.

This number is really too small for the ninja world!

Therefore, many ordinary people may never have seen a ninja in their entire lives, let alone watched a ninja competition.

Therefore, something like Konoha inviting so many Genin from ninja villages to participate in the Chunin Exam like this time has never happened before.

It is no wonder that tickets for the third Chunin Exam are so hard to come by.

After the first day of competition, all the candidates said goodbye to their acquaintances, and then went back home to find their mothers.

Of course, the candidates who advance to the next round must be filled with joy.

As for those who were eliminated, most of them have been taken to Konoha Hospital.

You can no longer see the frustrated expressions on their faces.

As one of the victors, Naruto of course went home whistling and humming a song.

"Today, the Kirigakure ninja named Chojuro was quite powerful. He even made me lose a lot of effort. He is indeed the teammate of the girl named Chinano!"

On the way home, Naruto couldn't help but mutter.

To be honest, Chojuro's water-style ninjutsu skills are pretty good.

Let’s not talk about how strong he is, but at least he is not weaker than Temari and Kankuro of Sunagakure.

If we have to give a description of his strength, it would be at the standard Chunin level.

Normally, he would have no problem advancing to the next round.

Unfortunately, this kind of strength is still not enough in front of Naruto.

It can be said that it is not that Chojuro is weak, but that Naruto at this stage of his life is too strong!

"Hey, but you're still not my match! I guess my dad and mom must have seen my performance today, right?"

It turns out that Naruto's purpose of praising Chojuro first was to praise himself!

However, Naruto's subsequent belief that his match was seen by Minato and Kushina was undoubtedly disappointing to him.

After all, when Naruto's games began, Minato and Kushina had already "abandoned" their son in favor of an adopted daughter!

I wonder what expression Naruto will have on his face when he finds out about this?

I think it should be very exciting.

Just like that, Naruto walked towards his home with a cheerful pace, with the purpose of returning home to receive praises from his parents.

In addition, because the Third Hokage already knew that Minato and Kushina had been resurrected, he never sent Anbu to follow Naruto after that.

Not to mention that Naruto’s current strength is already very strong. If he encounters danger and ordinary Anbu members show up, Naruto may have to rescue them!

In addition, the Third Hokage also believed that Minato, who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, would be able to protect his son.

If that's the case, is there any need to send that unit to follow Naruto?

That's just a waste of manpower!

It is for this reason that Minato and Kushina occasionally come to Naruto's home in Konoha to take care of their son.

And as long as they don't go out, no one will know that they have been resurrected!

Therefore, Naruto was very sure that his father and mother must be at home today.

"Hey, I wonder what my mom made for my favorite dinner today? If my dad isn't training me, I don't know what he's doing."

Standing at the door of his house, Naruto was still thinking about this question.

Finally, Naruto didn't hesitate any longer and pushed open the unlocked door of his house.

"I am back!"

This is the phrase Naruto likes to shout every time he goes home since Minato and Kushina were resurrected.

After all, before his father and mother were resurrected, no one would respond to him even if he shouted like that.

It can be said that Naruto, who once experienced loneliness, now especially cherishes the days with his parents.

Even though the day was still long, he still shouted this every time he entered the door.

"Welcome back! Naruto, Naruto."
