Kushina stood alone in the courtyard.
She and Uchiha Tatsu had been separated for a while.
At this time, the yard was dark. If you turn on the light now, you can see that Kushina's face is as red as a tomato, and her bright red ponytail looks like a tomato.
She patted her face and waited until she felt the heat on her face subsided before gently pushing open the small door in front of her.
This small courtyard can be said to be the most mysterious place in Konoha. And this place itself is also the safest place protected by Konoha.
Its level of mystery exceeds that of Konoha's Hokage Building and most of Konoha's buildings... Only a few people are allowed to enter here.
Kushina opened the small door and walked out of the small courtyard.
The courtyard is very small, and the walls and corridors are filled with the emblems of the Uzumaki clan. There are several red lights hanging in the corridor.
But it gives people a very stable and peaceful feeling.
Kushina knocked lightly on the door.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps. An old man with white hair opened the room.
"...Grandma Ling, good evening."
Kushina changed her nature as a red pepper and became as polite as a lady.
The white-haired old man smiled and said, "Kushina has finished training?"
"Well, grandma, has she fallen asleep?"
"Miss, she hasn't slept yet. She said you will definitely come to her tonight. She is still waiting for you."
Kushina nodded and said, "Excuse me."
Then he walked in slowly.
A woman sits on a chair.
The woman looked only twenty years old. She had bright red hair tied up, with two long pendants hanging from her hair, a diamond pattern between her eyebrows, and she was wearing a white traditional dress of the Uzumaki clan.
She stood up when she saw Kushina walking in. The long skirt rolled with silver threads rose up like a beautiful petal.
"Kushina, are you back from your date?" The voice was that of an old man. This shows that this woman's real age is actually very old.
Kushina's originally calm mood immediately became turbulent, and her face quickly turned red.
The young woman seemed to enjoy teasing Kushina.
Kushina opened her eyes wide and said, "Grandma, why are you so filthy?"
"What innocence? You didn't tell me that I wanted to take a day off and wanted to go on a date." The woman held her chin in her hand and smiled.
Kushina's face turned red, like a big tomato.
She argued, "Special training cannot be considered a date. Can the ninja thing be considered a date?"
What followed was the incomprehensible Uzumaki clan dialect, shadow clones, shurikens and the like.
After Mito teased Kushina for a while, he calmed down and sat down on the chair.
"Alas, I am getting old and my health is failing." Uzumaki Mito sighed.
"No! Grandma is so beautiful, she is the most beautiful person in Konoha." Kushina lifted Mito's back from behind.
"That's true. When I was young, I was also famous as a beauty in the Land of Fire. I don't know how lucky that fool Hashirama was in his lifetime."
"Obviously, a poor man can marry a beautiful princess of the Uzumaki clan like me." Mito said this with a smile on his face.
"Kushina, tell me, Hashirama couldn't have been the son of the Sage of Six Paths in his previous life. Otherwise, how could he be so blessed?" It was rare for Mito to talk so much today.
“……..”
However, fortunately, Kushina was used to Mito's out-of-the-box personality, so she just stuck out her tongue and acted cute without answering.
After all, the First Hokage was her elder, not hers to judge.
"Oh, I'm really old. If it weren't for so much chakra stored in the Yin Seal, I would look like your grandma Ling now, and I'd be very old." Mito continued.
"How's it going? Did you have fun today? What's the other person's name?" Uzumaki Mito pulled his junior and kept gossiping.
Kushina showed a shy expression, "I'm very happy. His name is Uchiha Tatsu."
"Uchiha Tatsu... Uchiha... Uchiha clan" Mito frowned, showing a somewhat pensive expression.
When Kushina saw Mito Uzumaki showing this expression, she screamed something bad in her heart.
She has studied the history of Konoha, so she naturally knows the history of the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan's Warring States period.
Moreover, this era is only the twenty-sixth year of Konoha. The name that must not be mentioned is not a secret yet.
She explained eagerly, "Grandma... Grandma, Chen is an orphan like me. He is a good person..."
Uzumaki Mito: "..."
Uchiha Tatsu had returned to his cabin at this moment. He suddenly sneezed. He didn't know that he was inexplicably dealt a good guy card by Kushina.
Mito smiled and touched Kushina's head, "The old stories of the Warring States Period are already obsolete. The Uchiha clan is also a villager of Konoha. An old woman like me doesn't care about your young people's affairs. Mix it up.”
Mito continued, "I just remembered some old memories."
"What's the matter?" Kushina asked.
"Well, let me think about it. I remember that it was when I married Hashirama. Madara's younger brother, Izuna, also fell in love with me. Then on the way to the wedding, Izuna brought someone to try to snatch me away."
"Then the two sides started fighting. At that time, Tobirama was responsible for security issues. Then, during that battle, Tobirama used Flying Thunder God Slash to injure Izuna." Mito recalled holding his chin.
"and after?"
"Izuna died later."
“……….”
As expected, beauty is a curse.
As the wife of the first Hokage, Uzumaki Mito was the only remaining person of that era. Naturally, he is the one who knows the most about that era.
Of course, except for Madara who is still lingering underground.
It can be said to be a miracle that Mito has survived until now. Although most of the reason is that the chakra of the Uzumaki clan is naturally huge and has extremely long vitality.
But now, she is almost like a candle in the wind.
Even though, he maintains his youth by relying on the large amount of chakra stored in the Yin Seal.
That's why she asked Hiruzen Sarutobi to find her people.
After all, as the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, she couldn't last more than a few years.
Mito is very satisfied with Kushina, the junior, and loves her very much. She seemed to see her own shadow in Kushina's body.
"... Kushina, what do you think of this village in Konoha?"
Mito Uzumaki asked after sitting on the chair and resting for a while.
"Village..."
