Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

He realized that Kushina Uzumaki wasn't actually asking him anything.

Looking at Kushina Uzumaki, who was excitedly pulling him along, he suddenly felt a sense of unease about the future.

It won't be any harder than following Shenyue Xingyun, will it?

No, no! It shouldn't be.

Trying to reassure himself, Itachi Uchiha calmed down. For the next few days, he diligently stayed by Kushina Uzumaki's side, learning many things he had never learned before.

Day 1: Knitting a sweater.

Kushina Uzumaki taught him to knit with her abysmal skills. By the time he was able to knit a complete pair of gloves, the sweater Kushina Uzumaki gave Minato Namikaze still looked like a small animal's scarf.

The next day, I cooked.

He swore that if he hadn't been watching, Kushina Uzumaki would have set the kitchen on fire. But Kushina seemed completely unconcerned about his worries and attempts to stop her.

"Oh dear, Itachi, you're such a coward."

"It's just cooking. Auntie knows ninjutsu, so she won't be afraid even if it catches fire."

Itachi Uchiha wanted to say that he was scared, but he knew it would be useless.

He simply couldn't stop the 'gentle and lively' Kushina Uzumaki.

On the third day, Kushina Uzumaki suddenly had the idea to take him fishing in the Naka River.

The other party had prepared two large packages of tools, but unfortunately, he sat there from morning until afternoon, his stomach growling with hunger, and he hadn't caught a single fish from Kushina Uzumaki.

Finally, in a fit of rage, Kushina used her enormous golden chains to churn up the Naka River, successfully stunning several large fish, which she then happily took home.

Every day that followed, Kushina Uzumaki came up with a new trick to play, and without exception, she either bored him or terrified him.

The fourth day, the fifth day...

On the eighth day, Kushina Uzumaki actually set the kitchen on fire and successfully destroyed it with a C-rank Water Release technique. She then began to ponder the difference between the Will of Fire and the Will of Stone.

On the eleventh day, while accompanying Kushina Uzumaki to get her hair done, he began to ponder the relationship between the Daimyo and the ninja village.

On the fifteenth day, he began to miss the Divine Moon Nebula...

Chapter 136 Southwest Front

The words are divided into two parts.

Even after returning home, Shenyue Xingyun couldn't find a moment of rest.

It's unclear who spread the news, but perhaps it was the moment he stepped through the gates of Konoha that the news spread, and all the girls in the village knew he was back.

Before he even got home, people blocked his way home. What should have been a ten-minute walk from the Hokage Building took him two hours.

He would either be walking along when a pretty girl would quietly wave to him, or he would be walking along when a delicate white hand would suddenly reach out from around a corner and pull him aside.

His short journey home was as arduous as a pilgrimage.

Upon learning that he had returned home, Izumo was overjoyed.

"That's great, bro!"

"You're not dead!"

Upon meeting, Shinzuki Izumo's first words made Shinzuki Seiun's face darken.

"Get lost."

If you can't speak well, learn to be quiet.

To celebrate his return, Izumo Shinzuki prepared a feast.

"When are you leaving?" Izumo asked casually during the meal.

Shingetsu Seiun was thinking about her date with Rinko-senpai that evening when she heard this and subconsciously said, "I'll be leaving in a bit."

"Clatter!" The chopsticks fell to the ground, and Izumo Kamitsu was stunned.

"Leaving in a little while?"

"Where is the fighting so urgent?"

"Oh~ you mean the war?" Shenyue Xingyun suddenly came to his senses and replied, "I don't know yet, we'll wait for news."

Izumo Shingetsu: "..."

If he weren't outmatched, he would definitely have picked up the chopsticks on the ground and given the other person a good beating.

Picking up the chopsticks and getting a new pair, Izumo Kamitsu said irritably, "Let's go on a date."

"All you ever do is go on dates. You've only been back for a short while, and you're already back at work."

"Don't you ever set aside any time for cultivation?"

Shenyue Xingyun: "You're too young to understand."

"For some people, dating is also a form of spiritual practice."

Shingetsu Izumo rolled his eyes wildly.

"So you'll be able to stay home for a longer period this time?"

"Is the war about to end?"

The Divine Moon Nebula remained silent.

He knew that the war was not only not over, but had only just begun.

Currently, on all battlefields, except for the Northwest Front which has achieved some results under Orochimaru's strategy, the other fronts have not yet entered the final stage. The Fourth Shinobi World War is still a long way off.

He couldn't say these things to Izumo Kamitsu, so after thinking for a moment he simply said, "No."

"The fighting will likely continue."

With a worried look on his face, Shingetsu Izumo said, "Brother, I'm begging you."

"Take my advice: go on fewer dates and spend more time cultivating yourself."

"If you're like this, I'll always worry that you'll die on the battlefield."

Shenyue Xingyun: "Don't talk nonsense."

Izumo Kamitsu: "I'm not making this up, I'm genuinely worried about you. It's just a few girls, what's the big deal if you don't go on dates? When we get to the battlefield, we still won't be able to go on dates for months."

Seeing that Shenyue Xingyun remained silent, he suddenly paused, "Wait, you're not dating even on the battlefield, are you?"

"Of course not," said Shenyue Xingyun. "Alright, alright, let's eat."

"Get some rest after you finish eating."

Rinko-senpai is still in the medical department of Konoha Hospital, and there are several junior students studying at the Ninja Academy. This group of people filled Shingetsu Seiun's daily schedule to the brim, and only Shingetsu Seiun himself knew the hardships and exhaustion they endured.

Fortunately, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not disappoint him this time. After less than a week of rest, the three of them received orders again to go to the southwestern front near Sunagakure for defense.

There wasn't much to say, so they packed their bags and set off again. Before leaving, the three of them went to visit Kushina Uzumaki to see how Mikoto's son, Itachi Uchiha, was doing.

When the group met Itachi Uchiha, he was wearing a cat-ear headdress and knitting a sweater with a look of utter despair.

Upon seeing Shingetsu Seiun and the other two, Itachi Uchiha stopped weaving and his dull eyes suddenly lit up.

"Are you here to take me back?!"

"Of course not." Shenyue Xingyun shook her head and smiled, "We have orders to set off again."

"I came to see you. It seems that Jonin Kushina has taken good care of you."

Kushina Uzumaki, standing to the side, had an expression that said, "Of course."

A bitter look flashed in Itachi's eyes. He wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, he ultimately said nothing.

It's no use saying anything.

Shen Yue Xingyun and the others were going to the battlefield, so even if he wanted to go with them, it was unlikely. As for Uzumaki Kushina—he had already seen through her.

What gentleness, what liveliness, it's all fake!

This is an incredibly boring and crazy woman! The kind of crazy woman who throws a tantrum whenever she's unhappy, and she's incredibly powerful!

Forget it, let's just make do for now. Mom will come back when the war is over.

"Then be careful and have a safe journey." As Itachi Uchiha finished speaking, a large hand landed on his head.

Shingetsu Seiun ruffled Uchiha Itachi's hair and said, "Stop pretending to be a little adult."

"Get along well with Jonin Kushina and be obedient. We're leaving."

After politely saying goodbye to Kushina Uzumaki, the three of them gradually disappeared into the distance.

"Alright, everyone's gone." Kushina Uzumaki patted Itachi Uchiha's head, and Itachi turned around, looking at Kushina Uzumaki and saying, "Aunt Kushina, can we skip knitting today?"

"How about you give me a lecture on ideology, like the Will of Fire or something?"

Kushina Uzumaki scratched her head. Faced with Itachi Uchiha's request, she thought for a moment and said, "What's there to talk about?"

"That's the kind of boring stuff old men like. How about this, Auntie will knit with you and teach you to sing at the same time?"

"No need, Aunt Kushina." Itachi Uchiha refused without hesitation: "I think we should concentrate on knitting. Let's continue knitting."

……

"What?!"

At the ninja academy, upon hearing the classroom gossip that "our idol has gone to the battlefield again," Uzuki Yugao slammed her hand on the table and stood up amidst everyone's astonished gazes, drawing a flurry of stares.

"Yugao? What's wrong?" Gekko Hayate rushed over anxiously, looking at Uzuki Yugao with concern.

"N-nothing..." Uzuki Yugao realized what was happening and hurriedly sat down again.

Facing Moonlight Gale's probing gaze, she suddenly raised the textbook in front of her and said, "That question was too difficult, and it didn't match my answer."

"It's okay."

"Is that so?" Gekko Hayate sensed something was off, but looking at Uzuki Yugao's exquisite profile, all he felt was tenderness.

"Xiyan, don't work so hard. It's just one question, it doesn't matter if you get it right or wrong."

"Okay, I understand, Hayate," Uzuki Yugao replied, sitting down again.

Her gaze remained fixed on the textbook in front of her, but her mind was completely focused on her ears.
