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

"I'm here." Just as I was engrossed in reading, a voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.

Mikoto Uchiha, who was lost in thought, heard the noise, but her brain didn't process it until the door opened and the light changed, at which point she realized what was happening outside.

Turning around in a panic towards the doorway, the red-haired woman carrying fruit looked puzzled.

"Mikoto, what are you doing? Why didn't you hear me calling you?"

"N-nothing." Mikoto Uchiha's heart rate spiked, then gradually decreased after realizing she hadn't done anything.

"Nothing?" Kushina Uzumaki frowned suspiciously.

When she first entered the house, she clearly saw Uchiha Mikoto staring blankly in the direction of the kitchen.

Could I have misread it?

No! I could never have been wrong.

While she was wondering what was going on, she suddenly heard the sound of cooking in the kitchen, and Uchiha Itachi's exclamation of "Wow~".

'Is there someone else?'

'Did Mikoto hire a nanny to look after her?' This thought flashed through Kushina's mind, but she didn't think much of it and took a few steps forward.

Mikoto Uchiha instinctively took a step to block Kushina Uzumaki's view, but after taking a step, she realized that her action seemed a bit silly, so she quickly changed direction and pretended to go to get the water glass on the table.

Uzumaki Kushina: "?"

Not right.

Something's definitely not right!

With her keen intuition, she felt that something was off after seeing Uchiha Mikoto.

Then, she saw busy figures in the kitchen.

His tall and slender figure stood out in the not-so-spacious kitchen. His skillful knife work, the bent sleeves, and the taut muscles in his forearms as he wielded the knife were all striking.

Coupled with that striking and captivating face, it's like a scene that only appears in every woman's dreams.

Kushina Uzumaki... was stunned.

It wasn't the auntie cooking with an apron on.

He's a familiar, incredibly handsome guy who's practically glowing.

Chapter 290 Kushina's Request

"Gudu~"

The sound of swallowing saliva was barely audible amidst the sizzling of stir-frying.

Kushina Uzumaki realized her lapse in composure and quickly looked away.

Hmm~ What's with this faint feeling of disappointment in my heart?

Suppressing her strange feelings, Kushina Uzumaki looked at Mikoto Uchiha, who was trying to remain calm.

"Mikoto."

"what's the situation?"

Uchiha Mikoto: "What...what's going on?"

"I don't understand what you're saying?"

"Stop pretending." Kushina Uzumaki said, pulling Mikoto Uchiha's hand and leading her to the side. Considering that Mikoto Uchiha was still pregnant, she didn't dare to walk too fast, and she moved step by step with great anxiety.

Once she was a little away from the kitchen, she moved closer to Uchiha Mikoto and looked directly into her eyes.

"I need an explanation?"

"Were you still half asleep when you left this morning?" Mikoto Uchiha asked, looking completely bewildered. "What explanation do you want?"

"Explain yourself, why is there such a handsome man cooking in your kitchen?"

"Are you crazy!" Mikoto Uchiha's eyes widened. "You've seen Nebula before!"

"Of course I've seen it!" Kushina Uzumaki exclaimed hastily. "I was just describing it, that's not the point!"

"The key question is, why did he cook here?"

Uchiha Mikoto: "You forgot, I'm his team leader."

"Oh~~~" Kushina Uzumaki looked enlightened, then asked casually, "Why not that hairy monkey from the Sarutobi family?"

"Or that little girl from the Yuhi family."

Uchiha Mikoto: "..."

"You speak so rudely, what do you mean by 'hairy monkey'?"

Kushina Uzumaki smiled and said, "See, you're not even giving me a straight answer."

Mikoto Uchiha sighed softly, "He just happened to have the time."

"Stop thinking about it, or I won't let you sit at the table later."

Kushina Uzumaki pouted, but didn't say anything more. She was mostly joking, and she knew her best friend's personality quite well.

How could she possibly have anything to do with that guy, Shenyue Xingyun? There's quite a big age gap between them.

Mikoto Uchiha went to tidy up the table, but Kushina Uzumaki saw this and quickly took over the task.

"You're a pregnant woman, so you should rest."

“I’m coming…yue!” As she was saying this, Kushina Uzumaki suddenly felt nauseous.

Mikoto Uchiha was startled and was about to check what was wrong when she saw Kushina Uzumaki run towards the bathroom.

Mikoto Uchiha froze on the spot.

When Shingetsu Seiun finished cooking and brought out the steaming food, only Uchiha Itachi was waiting in the dining room with his bowl and chopsticks in hand, looking very excited.

Where is Ms. Mikoto?

Uchiha Itachi: "I'll go call them."

A short while later, Kushina Uzumaki and Mikoto Uchiha walked over arm in arm.

Shingetsu Seiun nodded: "Kushina, a Jonin."

"Nebula Jonin." Kushina Uzumaki looked at him with a smile until Mikoto Uchiha pinched her, at which point she stopped.

"Thanks to Mikoto, I get to taste your cooking today."

Shen Yue Xingyun thought to himself that what he said was not wrong.

After they sat down, they picked up their chopsticks and started eating, but they were all stunned when they put the food in their mouths.

"So...so delicious." Kushina's pupils dilated.

An indescribable sensation overwhelmed her taste buds… no! It was her soul!

Does the food taste good?

very good!very good!

But it wasn't some rare delicacy; it was just ordinary vegetables and meat, yet it exuded an extraordinary flavor that transcended its own.

good to eat!

It's like the delicious dishes my grandma used to make when I was little, the kind of mouthwatering food that I couldn't touch when she served guests at home, the kind of taste that's the warmest in my memory.

Kushina Uzumaki savored the food in her mouth, as if she had returned to the Land of Whirlpools from her childhood.

The clansmen gathered together, laughing and chatting. The adults toasted each other, while she and her clansmen sneaked bites of the snacks that were meant for the adults to enjoy with their drinks.

While eating, Kushina's eyes were slightly moist.

Mikoto Uchiha was unaware of her best friend's state, because she was equally shocked at that moment.

She had already secretly raised her expectations after seeing that the dishes from Shenyue Xingyun looked quite good.

After all, since the other party was able to showcase their culinary skills in front of me, I couldn't very well serve them something inferior.

But to my utter surprise, it was so delicious.

She could almost hear the cells in her body cheering, her chakra boiling. The state of mind she hadn't been able to recover from since Fugaku Uchiha's disappearance was suddenly filled with vitality again.

She wanted to run, to jump, to run freely on the grassy fields.

Then pitch a tent, and meet someone special...

Compared to the two women, Itachi Uchiha's feelings were much simpler.

good to eat.

Compared to Brother Xingyun's cooking skills, the food my mother usually makes is only good enough to say that it's not poisonous, let alone that it's made by pigs.

He stretched out his left hand and gave a thumbs-up, while holding chopsticks in his right hand and slurping his rice.

It seems that since he was old enough to understand things, he has never eaten so carelessly as he did today.

"Eat slowly." Shingetsu Seiun was startled by the speed at which Uchiha Itachi was eating.

Before coming here, he had only done it a few times at home, and Izumo Shinzuki had a similar reaction then.

At the time, he simply thought his younger brother was just like that, nothing special. Now, seeing Uchiha Itachi in the same state, he suddenly understood.

He had wronged Shingetsu Izumo.

The cooking skills awarded by the system might be slightly different from what ordinary people consider 'delicious'.

"There's still some left in the pot after you finish eating."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Kushina Uzumaki started showing off her food.

Although he still tried to maintain some decorum, his speed in eating was no less than that of Uchiha Itachi, so Kamizuki Seiun immediately shut up.

He wasn't even sure if the food he made was enough for several people to show off like that.

"Burp!~" Twenty minutes later, Kushina Uzumaki let out a burp.

"It tastes really good."

"My belly has gotten so big."
