Naruto: Mikoto and Tsunade, don't let either of them go.

Chapter 350 Rope Tree Awakens

Chapter 350 The Rope Tree Awakens

When Uchiha Kakuzan opened his eyes, what came into view were the four figures standing on the platform, about to awaken.

Seeing that he had returned safely, Uchiha Kakuyama breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he clenched his fist and felt his body, which seemed to have become much stronger, and was momentarily dazed.

In fact, when Qiushan-jun revived Kushina and the others, he had already prepared to welcome the Sage of Six Paths.

After all, that legendary Pure Land has always been under the jurisdiction of the Sage of Six Paths.

If only the Impure World Reincarnation technique is used, the souls in the Pure Land can only be said to be rented out and will eventually return to the Pure Land. However, if the Samsara technique is used to revive them, the connection between them and the Pure Land will be severed, and they will be lost directly. Given the Sage of Six Paths' vigilance, he will definitely track them here after noticing the abnormality.

In other words, Uchiha Kakuzan is a descendant of the eldest son of the Sage of Six Paths, and naturally has a close relationship with the Sage of Six Paths. In addition, Uchiha Kakuzan has now awakened the Rinnegan and is showing extraordinary talent. As long as he does not have any hostility towards the Sage of Six Paths, the Sage of Six Paths will be very friendly to him.

As Uchiha Kakuyama felt the immense life force within his body and the knowledge imparted to him by the Sage of Six Paths in his mind, he couldn't help but smile.

It seems that the Sage of Six Paths also had high expectations for his growth; otherwise, he wouldn't have forgiven him for reviving others and even gave him such a great gift.

Uchiha Kakuyama suppressed the urge to immediately learn Yin-Yang Release and quietly waited for the resurrection of these people to end. It seemed that when he was communicating with the Sage of Six Paths, time here was either frozen or flowing very slowly. Otherwise, Tsunade and the others would have noticed the abnormality long ago.

Just then, the steam on the platform finally dissipated completely. Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, the eyelids of the four people standing there trembled slightly. Then, these four people who had long since died saw this ninja world once again.

However, unlike Senju Nawaki, when Uzumaki Kushina, Scorch Release: Yoru Kura and Yahiko opened their eyes, what came into their view was the Rinnegan that seemed to fill their entire field of vision. Then, the three of them, still somewhat dazed, fainted again.

After using genjutsu to control the three, Uchiha Kakuzan waved his right hand, and the three disappeared from their original spot, entering Kakuzan's space.

After Uchiha Kakuzan finished doing this, he suddenly heard a gust of wind behind him. Then, he saw Tsunade rush to Nawaki and hug him tightly.

Originally, Nawaki, who had just opened his eyes, was not very clear-headed. After being caught by Tsunade, he immediately became nervous. You see, Nawaki died in the war. In his memory, he was still in the stage of being attacked. Naturally, he would be very nervous to be suddenly caught by someone.

Nawaki tensed up at the sudden situation, and his right hand immediately reached for his ninja tool pouch.

However, how could Nawaki, who had just been resurrected, possibly have that thing on him? So, as expected, he found nothing. This made Nawaki's heart skip a beat. Oh no, his ninja tool pouch was gone too.

Just as Nawaki was about to take another approach, Tsunade's tearful voice, which was holding him, finally reached his ears, causing Nawaki to freeze in place.

"Rope Tree, Rope Tree, you've finally come back to life, sob sob..."

Tsunade, clinging to the rope tree, wailed and cried her heart out, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances in her heart.

Hearing Tsunade's cries, feeling his sister's tight embrace and the warm tears falling on his neck, Nawaki finally came to his senses. At that moment, he finally remembered that he had been injured by the explosive tag trap, and severely so.

However, he felt no pain at all. It must have taken his sister a lot of effort to save him.

Sensing his sister's sorrow, Nawaki's eyes also reddened. He slowly raised his hands, embraced his sister, and comforted her:

"It's okay, sister, I'm fine. Look, I don't feel any pain anymore."

To his surprise, instead of comforting her, Tsunade cried even louder when she heard Nawaki call her "older sister" after so long. Nawaki was at a loss for what to do. After all, he was just a boy, and this was the first time he had ever encountered something like this.

Neither Shizune nor Uchiha Kakuzan, standing beside Tsunade, offered any words of comfort. They both knew very well that Tsunade had been holding this knot in her heart for countless years, and it would be good for her to let it out.

Uchiha Kakuzan quietly watched Tsunade cry and Nawaki look helpless. Once Tsunade's sobs subsided a little, Kakuzan walked over, patted her shoulder, and said:

"Tsunade, that's enough. Today is the day Nawaki returns. We should be happy and not scare him."

Having vented her anger to the point of exhaustion, Tsunade heard what Qiushan-kun said and understood that he was right. She slowly loosened her grip on Nawaki's hands, still sniffling, her eyes and nose red from crying, making her appear very fragile.

However, even though Tsunade had released Nawaki, she still placed her hands on his shoulders and quietly looked at her younger brother whom she had lost and found again.

Faced with her sister's eager gaze, Nawaki seemed very uncomfortable. To avoid her sister's gaze, Nawaki turned her head and looked around, saying as she looked:

"Sister, where am I? How long have I been unconscious? And since you're here, is the war over?"

By the way, don't blame Orochimaru-sensei. The reason I fell into the trap was because of my own mistake, it had nothing to do with Orochimaru-sensei. He cares about me a lot.

Seeing Nawaki looking around aimlessly, Tsunade couldn't help but raise her hand and ruffle his hair haphazardly, saying:

"The war is over, and we, Konoha, have won. This is a place to treat you; it's quite secluded, which is why you've never been here before."

Regarding the resurrection of Nawaki, Uchiha Kagami and Tsunade had already discussed it beforehand, saying that he had been in a coma and only woke up after receiving treatment.

After all, the ability to resurrect the dead is still too shocking. Everyone has regrets and people they want to resurrect. If outsiders knew about Uchiha Kagakuyama's abilities, it would cause a lot of trouble.

Chapter 351 Xiangling and Kushina

Chapter 351 Xiangling and Kushina

Although Uchiha Kakuzan's current strength can be said to be unmatched in the entire ninja world, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has his eye on you.

Whether it's Tsunade, Kurenai, Yugao Uzuki, or the children of Uchiha Kagayama in the future, they will all still be active in the ninja world. In order to prevent others from targeting them in the future, some appropriate concealment is still necessary.

Just like the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, if it weren't so outstanding, it wouldn't have caught the eye of Danzo and Orochimaru, thus triggering a series of events.

At this moment, Tsunade finally recovered. She led the still somewhat bewildered Nawaki to Hill-kun and introduced him:

“Nawaki, his name is Uchiha Okayama, he is your brother-in-law, you can just call him brother-in-law. If he weren’t your brother-in-law, your injuries wouldn’t be healed by now.”

Rope Tree, who had just been in a daze, was immediately startled by the information her sister had given her.

"Hey? My sister found a boyfriend! That's fast!"

Huh? My sister's boyfriend is from the Uchiha clan!

"Won't my sister be driven crazy by the family elders?!"

(When Nawaki died, there were still members of the Senju clan.)

However, Nawaki, who was still a teenager, did not yet have the hatred that the Senju clan had for the Uchiha clan. Moreover, he was like Naruto, determined to become Hokage. How could he possibly have hatred or prejudice towards the future villagers?

After being startled by his sister, Nawaki still spoke to Uchiha Kakuyama in a friendly manner:

"Thank you, brother-in-law, for saving my life."

Uchiha Kakuyama shook his head amicably, indicating that it was alright.

To further enhance Nawaki's positive feelings towards Uchiha Kakuyama, Tsunade continued:

"Kiu Shan-kun is the head of the Uchiha clan. He used the Uchiha clan's exclusive secret technique to save you. Otherwise, you would not know how long you would have been unconscious."

Upon hearing his sister's words, Nawaki was startled. He glanced sharply at his sister, then at Uchiha Kakuyama, and exclaimed:

"The head of the Uchiha clan? I remember the head of the Uchiha clan was an old man. When did my brother-in-law become the head of the Uchiha clan?"

Just then, Nawaki, who was already quite surprised, looked at his sister closely as if he had discovered a new continent, and exclaimed in astonishment, pointing at Tsunade's body:

"Sister, your body, your body..."

Nawaki stammered in words Tsunade couldn't understand, so Tsunade reached out and touched Nawaki's forehead, asking in confusion:

"It's not burning? Are you talking nonsense?"

Just as Tsunade was about to ask Qiushan-jun if there was a problem with the resurrection...

Nawaki finally made things clear.

"Sister, aren't you flat-chested? How come you're so big? It must be fake, right?"

Nawaki's words immediately broke Tsunade's guard. A blush immediately appeared on Tsunade's face, and she immediately stretched out her fist and punched Nawaki hard in the head, knocking Nawaki to the ground.

Rope Tree, which had been knocked to the ground, had a large bump on its head, and its eyes looked like mosquito coils. It muttered:

"That's right, she's my older sister."

Regarding her sister's sudden display of great compassion, Tsunade later clearly told Nawaki how much time had passed, which made the usually lively Nawaki become sullen.

It's not his fault. After all, after taking a nap, he woke up to find that decades had passed and everything around him had changed, which was indeed very disheartening.

Tsunade gently ruffled Nawaki's hair and said with a smile:

"It's alright, Nawaki, you still have me. I'm Hokage now, you know. I'll watch you grow up, get married, and have children. As for whether you can inherit my position, that depends on how hard you try."

Nawaki, being a naturally carefree person, quickly became excited after being encouraged by Tsunade. He looked at Tsunade and said...

"Don't worry, sister, I will definitely take over your position and become the Hokage who protects the village."

After Tsunade and Nawaki finished catching up, Uchiha Kakuyama took them back to Tsunade's home in Konoha. After all, Konoha was Tsunade's stronghold, and he believed she would handle Nawaki's situation well.

After Uchiha Kakuzan escorted Tsunade back, he finally returned to the island.

Only one person remained on the island, quietly waiting beside the platform for Qiu Shanjun's return.

After returning here, Uchiha Kakuyama came to her and gently said:

"Sister Xiangling, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Kaoru Uzumaki gently shook her head and said:

"It's alright, Karin and Naruto are sleeping very soundly, they won't know that I came here with Okayama-kun."

After saying that, Kaoru Uzumaki suddenly realized that what she said was somewhat ambiguous, and a blush immediately rose on her face, making Kaoru Uzumaki, who was already full of mature woman charm, even more attractive.

Uchiha Kakuyama stared blankly for a while, and only after Xiangling's face turned even redder did he cough and look away from Xiangling.

In fact, over the years, Uchiha Kazuma and Karin had met in secret quite a few times. Kazuma wanted Karin to move in with them, but as a mother, Karin had the burden of raising two underage children, Karin and Naruto. So she only accepted the life-saving secret technique that Kazuma taught her, but still lived with Karin and Naruto and took on the responsibility of raising them.

Uchiha Kakuzan waited until the blush on Xiangling's face faded a little before speaking:

"Sister Xiangling, you've been in Konoha for so long, you should know about Kushina and the Fourth Hokage's relationship. If I were to suddenly awaken her, she might very well commit suicide and follow the Fourth Hokage in death. Therefore, I need to use a secret technique to erase all her memories of the Fourth Hokage. That way, Kushina won't do anything rash. I hope you can understand."

However, Uzumaki Kaoru, who had long been his wife, was certainly aware of Uchiha Kazuma's little schemes. She gave Kazuma a charming glare and said:

"Do whatever you want. What you said makes sense. If Kushina's memories aren't altered, she'll suffer terribly. You'll be the one who benefits from us sisters."

The shameless guy, whose little scheme had been exposed, wasn't embarrassed at all. He gently kissed Sister Xiangling and said:

"However, after reviving Kushina, I can only place her in my space. After all, she died under the Nine-Tails in front of everyone back then. If she is recognized, it will be really difficult to handle."

Chapter 352 Karin's Thoughts

Chapter 352 Karin's Thoughts

Hearing what Qiu Shan-jun said, Uzumaki Kaoru nodded in agreement.

"You've already done a great job by reviving her. Kushina's identity is so sensitive; how could we possibly let her continue living in Konoha?"

Let's arrange for her to meet Naruto after we've settled her in properly.

After all, both young Naruto and Kushina were rather pitiful.

Naruto lost both his parents at birth and grew up in loneliness.

Kushina, on the other hand, was unable to be there for her child as he grew up, which must have been a great regret for her.

After all, both Kushina and I grew up as orphans after the fall of the Land of Whirlpools. I can empathize with that longing for family and the feeling of being dependent on others.

Uchiha Kakuyama gently embraced Xiangling, kissed her hair, and said again:

"Sister Xiangling, Karin and Naruto have both graduated and can take care of themselves now. Why don't you move in with me?"

Furthermore, Kushina has just been resurrected and needs the company of people she knows.

When Xiangling heard Qiushanjun's request again, she hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Kaoru Uzumaki rested her head slightly against Qiu Shanjun's chest, listening to his heartbeat, and said:

"Kyuu-kun, actually, Karin already knows about us. After all, we're often together, and there are some unusual things going on in our interactions. Besides, Karin is quite perceptive, so she noticed."

When Xiangling got to this point, her face was already flushed. After all, she and Qiu Shanjun were only together secretly, and in the end, they were discovered by her own daughter. How could she not be embarrassed?

Uchiha Kakuzan was also quite surprised. He raised an eyebrow and asked with interest:

"Oh? And then what happened?"

Xiangling gently punched Qiu Shanjun's chest, feeling her face burning up, and said:

"Karin is very clever, and since I don't usually have much contact with men, she guessed it was Lord Gouyama."

However, Karin didn't object to our relationship; instead, she encouraged me to pursue my own happiness.

Kaoru Uzumaki pressed her burning face tightly against Qiu Shanjun's body, as if doing so would transfer the heat to him.

"However, this child is too clever. After testing me a few times, she turned her suspicions on you. But then again, since my daughter and I came to Konoha Village, we have had very few contact with men, so it is normal for her to guess."

However, of course I wouldn't admit it, and after a period of silence, this brat said to me,

If that man were Qiu Shanjun, she wouldn't have stopped us from being together.

As Xiangling Whirlpool finished speaking, she traced circles on Qiu Shanjun's chest with her slender fingers, looking somewhat melancholy.

"Kyuu-kun, I feel, I feel, Karin seems to like you too."

Xiangling raised her head, her eyes filled with tears:

"Qiu Shan Jun, tell me, am I not a good mother? I even steal the man my own daughter likes?"

Uchiha Kakuyama also sensed Karin's sorrow. After all, Karin was her only family in the world, and it seemed that they had both fallen in love with the same man, and Karin had even beaten her to it. This left Karin, who loved her daughter dearly, at a loss for what to do.
