"Pfft!"
Seeing Watergate's smile, all the uneasiness in Shinna Kushina's heart suddenly disappeared like a shadow shrouded by sunlight.
Her tears turned into a smile, and her smile was like a flower.
"You look better when you smile." Watergate chuckled softly, then reached out his hand and wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Shinna Kushina's face was slightly red, but with their friendship, there was no need for her to be shy.
She raised her eyes and looked at Watergate in front of her, but did not speak for a while.
"You must have had a hard time these days."
Although Shinna Kushina had never been on the battlefield, she had grown up on the border of the Fire Country and had seen the separation of life and death in the world.
The kind of hard work she was referring to was not physical fatigue, but the heart.
As long as it was a war, people would die. Wood Leaf had won this war, but he had also paid a heavy price.
The so-called peace was built on many sacrifices. This was an unchanging law.
If it were someone else, they might have misunderstood this, but if there was someone in the world who understood Shinna Kushina the best, it was definitely Watergate.
Similarly, the person who understood Watergate the best was also her.
"This is inevitable in war. Fortunately, we did not let down our dead companions and won."
Watergate said. At this time, there was naturally a gap between his wisdom and Shinna Kushina's. He was trying to enlighten the former.
Shinna Kushina and he were the same kind of people. What they cherished the most was the village and their companions.
So when he proposed to seal the Nine Tails, Shinna Kushina wanted to use the last of her strength to perish together with the Nine Tails.
"However, Shinna Kushina, you have really changed."
Watergate smiled. Shinna Kushina could already think of this. This was the growth gained from experiencing war.
"Is that so?"
Shinna Kushina's expression changed and said, "But I never knew that you were so strong before."
Before Watergate went to the battlefield, he stayed with Shinna Kushina, and the latter never knew that Watergate was so strong.
In just more than half a year, she always learned everything that Watergate did on the battlefield from Sandaime-sama.
Being able to kill a Jonin already surprised her, but he also developed Ninjutsu, which she thought was incredible, he did it.
Moreover, it was the highest level of the S-Class.
"Can you let me see the Ninjutsu you developed?" Shinna Kushina was was curious.
Minato said, "Of course, but it doesn't seem appropriate here."
Kushina was slightly startled, and then followed Minato's line of sight. At this time, they were standing on the roof, and many people were looking at them unknowingly.
"That kid, did he just come from the battlefield?"
"I know him, he is Minato Watergate."
"Minato Watergate!!?"
At this time, Watergate was still wearing a Chunin vest. His clothes looked very dirty and damaged in many places, which is the trace of war.
The location where he and Shinna Kushina were standing is just a residential area, and the two stopped here to talk, which naturally attracted the attention of these people.
These Wood Leaf civilians whispered, and suddenly, someone recognized Watergate. Suddenly, the look in the eyes of everyone in the crowd suddenly changed.
It was as if they saw something incredible.
With their hearing, although the voices were noisy at the same time, they could hear them clearly one by one.
Shinna Kushina's face was a little surprised.
When he saw these gazes, Minato's heart immediately shrank.
On the battlefield, he was not afraid of the killing intent of enemies of the same number. However, it was even more uncomfortable to be looked at as an "alien".
"Let's go!"
As for the reason, Mikoto has already told him. Although Watergate is on the battlefield, his name has spread throughout Wood Leaf.
She pulled Shinna Kushina away from the crowd in a few flashes. But at this time, the discussion of the people didn't seem to stop.
The two rushed to a relatively small street, Watergate pulled Shinna Kushina forward, but she grabbed his hand.
"What's wrong?" Watergate looked back and asked.
"Don't worry about Ninjutsu, you just came back from the battlefield, you should go home and have a good rest, take a bath, and change into clean clothes." Shinna Kushina said.
Knowing that she was thinking for him, Watergate smiled and said, "Okay, then … you come home with me, I'm hungry now."
Watergate pondered for a moment and invited Watergate.
Shinna Kushina heard this and her eyes widened slightly.
Speaking of which, Shinna Kushina has never been to Watergate's house.
"Okay." But she quickly agreed to Watergate's request and said, "Then I'll cook for you."
"Okay." Watergate smiled and pulled Shinna Kushina away. He naturally didn't feel shy.
Shinna Kushina is his wife, whether it was before, now, or in the future.
Behind him, Shinna Kushina's face was slightly red.
...
Naruto's office.
"Well, you all go back and have a good rest." Sandaime said to Tsunade, Sho Sho, and the others in front of him.
Hearing this, the few of them also left the place.
"Go and find the two consultants and Danzo." After they left, Sandaime raised his hand slightly, and an Anbu directly under him appeared in front of him.
"Yes." The Anbu answered and disappeared.
Ten minutes later, the office door was pushed open, and several top Wood Leaf officials came in.
"Sarutobi, why did you ask us to come here?"
Koharu asked. Generally, Sandaime would call them here if there was something extremely important in the village.
Sandaime looked up and said directly, "I want to discuss with you all. I want to tell everything about the Uzumaki Shinna Kushina to Watergate."
The three top Wood Leaf officials heard this and their faces suddenly changed.
They naturally knew what Sandaime meant. Shinna Kushina is the Nine Tails' Jinchuriki.
This is the village's top secret, and only a few people in Wood Leaf know about it.
"You can't. The implications of Nine Tails are too great. How can you simply tell others?"
Danzo suddenly objected and said, "Moreover, now that the war is almost over, I think it is necessary to restore the supervision of Nine Tails' Jinchuriki."
Sandaime, who was originally calm, suddenly said, "I have already explained to you about the supervision, this is Naruto's decision, you are not qualified to change it."
"As for Shinna Kushina, I personally promised Watergate."
"Promised?
This kind of promise to a child, as Naruto, you made a decision because of this? "Danzo sneered.
Sandaime glanced at the other two consultants. Although they didn't speak, they obviously felt that it was inappropriate to tell Watergate everything about Shinna Kushina, the Nine Tails' Jinchuriki.
Sandaime looked back at Danzo and said, "As Naruto, you shouldn't make such a decision, but this child now has an extraordinary significance to the village, don't you understand?"
