Konoha: Who's the good guy?

"Relax, relax~ I promise I won't say that to you again!"

Kushina tightened her grip on Yamanaka Kei's hand slightly.

Her pretty face was full of anticipation and longing for a better future.

The evening breeze stirred, causing the girl's bright red hair to flutter, and her radiant smile seemed to dazzle even the mountain scenery.

Although this world is not perfect, there are always some wonderful people who shine with warm and brilliant light in this gloomy world.

With a slight smile on his lips, Yamanaka Kei tightened his grip on Kushina's left hand.

As the sun set, we walked home side by side.

It's just from an angle that Kushina can't see.

Shan Zhongjing frowned slightly.

He was certain of his feelings for Kushina, and he was also certain that Kushina felt the same way about him.

That......

Why hasn't the system given a notification that Kushina's fate has changed?

......

Name: Kushina Uzumaki

Occupation: Konoha Ninja

Entry: Nine-Tails Jinchuriki (Red), Abundant Power (Purple), In the Name of Love (Purple), Sealing Control (Blue), Talented and Beautiful (Blue)

......

Initially, Kushina had seven entries: one red, one purple, three blue, one green, and one gray.

Now only five remain.

If Shan Zhongjing remembers correctly, the disappearable entries should be the blue entry "Unyielding", the green entry "Outbreak", and the gray entry "Lonely and Destitute".

The second purple entry that suddenly appeared was far more powerful than the previous three.

Furthermore, the negative impact of the grayed-out term "lonely and helpless" is no longer present.

In the Name of Love (Purple): A surge of passionate love that drowns out all loneliness and confusion. It greatly enhances mental strength, mental growth, and willpower. When protecting loved ones or things, all abilities are greatly enhanced.

The detailed explanation in the entry has already explained everything.

Compared to Minato and Honoka's relationship, Honoka gained an additional green attribute: "mutual attraction".

In the Name of Love, we completely crushed them!

The definition of "greatly enhanced abilities when protecting loved ones or things" alone is, in Yamanaka Kei's opinion, extremely abnormal.

Protecting loved ones or things isn't just about fighting.

As long as it's based on protecting your loved ones.

Whether you want to cultivate and improve your strength, or learn new knowledge and skills, you will receive a huge boost.

This effect is tantamount to an epic buff for Kushina.

Even so, the system still did not notify that Kushina's fate had changed.

The only remaining explanation is the Nine-Tails!

During the Warring States period, people regarded the tailed beasts as moving natural disasters.

The Nine-Tails, as the strongest of the nine tailed beasts, possesses an enormous and terrifying amount of chakra and extremely destructive power.

Even later, it was forcibly split in two by Minato Namikaze.

Even Naruto was able to thrive in the Fourth Shinobi World War by relying on half of the Nine-Tails.

A fully-formed Nine-Tails deserves a red-themed tag, and that's no exaggeration at all.

Moreover, the Nine-Tails is one of the important pieces of the Ten-Tails puzzle.

Neither Madara Uchiha nor Otsutsuki Shinobu (Black Zetsu), who was secretly plotting behind the scenes, would turn a blind eye.

In addition, Kushina, as a pure member of the Uzumaki clan, naturally possessed the qualities to become a perfect Jinchūriki!

In recent years, influenced by the scenery in the mountains, he has become very dedicated to cultivating sealing techniques.

Even though they couldn't reconcile with Kurama, they still managed to forcibly extract a significant amount of chakra from it.

Becoming the perfect Jinchūriki is only a matter of time.

If Madara Uchiha and Black Zetsu aren't fools, there's a high probability they'll nip this threat in the bud before Kushina fully matures.

After all, what if Kushina grew to the level of Mito Uzumaki?

Even Madara Uchiha would find it troublesome.

"Unlocking the Tail Seal, Spiritual Contract."

Yamanaka Kei narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling Obito's methods in the original work.

According to normal logic.

Madara Uchiha is now very old, and for the sake of the Eye of the Moon Plan, he is unlikely to show himself on his own initiative.

Therefore, selecting and cultivating a qualified successor to the will within the Uchiha clan is Madara Uchiha's most important task at present.

Even if the successor is as strong as Obito, his strength is still worlds apart from Madara's.

Even if he were brainwashed by Madara and wanted to attack Konoha, his strength would absolutely not be enough to confront Konoha head-on.

The method of taking action is nothing more than taking advantage of the weakened seal when the Jinchūriki is giving birth, using the Tail-Releasing Seal to launch a sneak attack, and then forcibly summoning the Nine-Tails.

"Kushina, how's the Nine-Tails doing lately?"

"Huh? That's great. Aside from cursing everyone he knows every day, cursing the toad, and cursing the other tailed beasts, he spends the rest of his time either sleeping or sensing the outside world."

Kushina turned her head in confusion upon hearing Yamanaka Kei's words.

"??? Where did it learn to swear?"

"Um... when it senses the outside world, it always hears some things, and over time... okay, okay, it insults me, and then I insult it back, and that's how it ended up."

"......six."

Yamanaka Kei pursed his lips, unsure how to respond.

When Kushina first became a Jinchūriki.

Because the Nine-Tails was full of resentment, it kept causing trouble all day long.

Kushina doesn't have her current strength yet. Even with Mito Uzumaki's seal, she can't suppress the fully-formed Nine-Tails, and her state is extremely unstable.

Therefore, for the safety of the village, Hiruzen Sarutobi and other Konoha leaders kept her inside a barrier.

As Kushina's friend, Yamanaka Kei once visited her and, thanks to the powerful spiritual amplification brought by the red tag "Transmigrator," entered the sealed space to see the Nine-Tails.

It took a lot of effort to finally fool the Nine-Tailed Fox into staying quietly in the seal for the time being.

Kushina was also able to escape her life of being like a caged bird ahead of schedule.

I originally thought that over time, Kurama and Kushina would get along much better than in the original story.

The result... was a shouting match?

Kushina!

You're really something else, you've really opened my eyes!

Just thinking about the original nine-tailed fox with sharp teeth and a ferocious face...

The moment he opened his mouth, it was like he was having a split personality, with the screen filled with *****, and he felt like the world had gone awry.

"Ahem, Jing, you're someone that stinky fox knows, so..."

Kushina coughed awkwardly and offered a weak reminder.

"??? No, why is it insulting me?"

"Perhaps, maybe, possibly... it just wants to extend its care to everyone it knows?"

"......grass!"

After holding it in for a long time, Shan Zhongjing finally managed to utter only one word.

Looking at Kushina's awkward smile.

He sighed helplessly.

This girl always manages to give people a little bit of a spiritual shock!

In the midst of this rambling conversation, he almost forgot why he had asked about the Nine-Tails in the first place.

"When I get home later, I'll go into the sealed space to check on the Nine-Tails."

"Let's hurry up, I'll go home with you! I haven't seen it get its comeuppance in ages!"

"??? I wasn't prepared to yell back!"
