Chapter 72: The Kyuubi

After handing the sword to the re-custom department, Naito returned to the ground.

Tired of being attacked all the time lately, Naito didn’t want to pick any more missions, he was too lazy, so he just headed back home.

The place he was living in wasn’t that rusty place from before, he moved to a better place close to the center of the village.

After all, Naito is an Anbu member now.

Some of the Anbu doesn’t even have a place on their own, they just live in the Anbu department.

Back at home, Naito thought for a long time, and he was ready to continue his practicing.

up until now, Naito needed to go through a lot of battles so he only practiced Ninjutsus and moves, but now he needs to focus on training his body.

The sky starts to get darker,obviously, there wasn’t any chance to train today, so he needed to get ready to start his practice again tomorrow.

In fact, he thought about doing some other missions with Dai, but Naito decided on doing his training.

Because this may intercept his plane of focusing on strengthening his body, he will need to learn more moves of how he can hide and track enemy’s Chakra.

“Let’s just take a rest today.”

Yes, all that he needs right now is to relax his body, Naito walked out of the room and jumped right on the roof, he always admired the view in Konoha.

When the last sunrise was going down on the Hokage Rock, the shadow fall down on the heads of the three Hokage.

What fabulous view, it made Naito space out for a moment.

But the sun didn’t stop there, and the darkness starts to control the place.

At this time, Naito moved his eyes to the bottom of the roof, suddenly he got surprised by the figure of someone.

What his eyes fell on was a figure of a young girl, but when he thought about it didn’t seem that surprising to see her.

…….

In Naito’s house.

Kushina used to visit Naito every day.

But Naito went out in a mission with Dai and he didn’t tell here, she got worried about him, and wanted to found out what happened with him, but she couldn’t find any information.

She came every day, but the house was empty.

While she was waiting for any information about Naito, she got unexpectedly worried.

“This guy always does things without telling me, and when he leaves the village he doesn’t even worry about his safety!”

This continued worry become more and more annoying.

Kushina looked at the door house and twitched her mouth.

“When he comes home I’ll make sure to scold him very badly!”

When Naito heard this sentence he almost fell from the roof.

This sentence scared him more than fighting Tsuki, but he kinda felt sorry for her, he left the village without telling her, it’s not a surprise that she’s angry, he made her very worried.

“Oh… Wait, she’s already leaving.”

Kushina was ready to leave the place in desperation, so he planned to surprise her.

At the moment when she stepped out of the place, Naito glanced at her.

“Cough.”

This time Naito wasn’t hiding on the roof anymore, he was right behind her.

“Goodnight,” Naito said this with a warm tone.

“…”

Kushina turned to see Naito in front of her.

Then she ran toward him and hugged him.

“You idiot!!”

“Ahem…”

Well, he knew he deserved it, leaving without telling her was a little bit harsh.

He was ready for that scold she was talking about, but he didn’t expect that he will get a warm hug instead.

When she tried to hug him, Kushina lost all of her strength so she kinda fell into Naito’s arms, so he hugged her very tightly.

“Next time you make sure to tell me before you go… Even if you don’t worry about yourself… Worry about others…”

Naito felt that something is wrong.

Something is off.

With a worried face, Naito touched her head softly and asked: “What happened?”

“No, nothing.”

Kushina let go of Naito, without making any eye contact.

This made Naito more suspicious, there must be something!

Naito felt a trace of a fear in her eyes.

What is she afraid of?

Naito couldn’t think of anything.

The next moment, Kushina with a little bit of hesitation she looked at him while her body was trembling.

“Yuu Naito… if I say… If I were a monster, what would you think of me?”

Kushina’s heart skipped a beat when she said this sentence.

At this time, she didn’t look like a Red Hot-Blooded Habanero, she was just a little girl with a heart full of fear.

If he was any other person, he definitely wouldn’t understand what she meant.

But Naito was a different case.

The Kyuubi!

Is this the time when Kushina become the Jinchuriki of the Kyuubi?

However, there wasn’t any news about the death of the previous Jinchuriki.

Even if this matter is concealed, there should have a been special treatments to do.

is the seal getting weakened?

No, this isn’t the reason.

He didn’t have a clue about this situation, even in the original story there weren’t any details about this event, Naito didn’t know anything about this situation.

But until now, the course of the future didn’t change.

Thinking of this, Naito shook his head a little bit.

In fact, these things aren’t important, regardless of whether this is happening now or in the near future, the fact of Kushina being the Jinchuriki is difficult to change.

Naito can’t help her get rid of her future.

However, Naito is capable of changing her destiny.

This is not impossible.

“It doesn’t matter, as long as you’re still you, I will never change my thoughts about you.”

Naito extended his hand and gently put on her pretty face, she looked him in the eyes with her sparkling eyes.

He really meant what he said.

Naito knew that this Nine-Tailed fox who’s everyone is afraid off, is nothing but a kind one.

At some point, Naito was confident that he will have the power to knock some sense into him.

If a punch didn’t do the work, he will just send a barrage of punches toward him.

Listening to those kind words from Naito, the desperation, and fear that Kushina had in her heart become happiness and joy.

“Really?”

“Really.”

“It’s a promise!”

“Yes.”
