"I'm back, thank you!"
Looking at the girl's smiling face, Watergate couldn't help but feel warm. His blue eyes were filled with tenderness.
He had forgotten that after twelve o 'clock, it would be his eleventh birthday.
Shinna Kushina remembered. It seemed that she had been waiting for him for a long time.
Because Watergate could vaguely see some blood vessels in her big eyes.
His eyes moved slightly away from Shinna Kushina and looked at the hall.
There were more decorations in the hall. Balloons of various colors hung on the wall, and the balloons formed various shapes.
The most obvious one was a human face piled up in the middle of the wall.
It was Watergate and Shinna Kushina …
"Why are you back so late?"
Shinna Kushina asked, but before Watergate could answer her, she took his hand and dragged him into the hall.
On the table in the hall, there were all kinds of exquisite dishes. In the center of the dishes, there was a big cake.
On the cake, there were the words "Happy Birthday Watergate!!!" written in jam.
Shinna Kushina pulled him to the table, then turned her face away. Her cheeks were raised with a hint of pride. "I made this cake myself."
Watergate heard this and was slightly surprised. Then he murmured, "So this is what you said you were busy with these days?"
He had thought that Shinna Kushina had been stimulated by him, so she was practicing harder.
But Watergate didn't expect that Shinna Kushina had been practicing hard to make a cake for his birthday.
"Yes."
Shinna Kushina answered softly. She observed Watergate's expression, then lowered her head and asked shyly in a low voice, "Is it not nice?"
"No …"
At this time, Watergate's eyes flashed violently, and he immediately answered.
"You made it really well … really!"
He wasn't trying to flatter her. Although he was a beginner, the cakes made by Shinna Kushina were indeed exquisite.
It could be seen how much effort she had put into celebrating Watergate's birthday.
Because of this, Watergate's emotions were surging.
After receiving Watergate's praise, Shinna Kushina's face showed a trace of complacency. However, Watergate's voice at this moment made her feel that something was wrong.
So she looked up and saw Watergate's eyes, which were filled with emotions.
"Watergate, why are you …" Shinna Kushina was puzzled and asked. Suddenly, Watergate pulled her into his arms.
Her voice stopped abruptly because she felt that Watergate's body was trembling violently.
"Shinna Kushina … I'm sorry …"
Watergate's voice was choked with sobs.
The reason why he was like this was because everything in front of him reminded him of the memories he had with Shinna Kushina.
She gave up everything for him, and even on her deathbed, she still thought about him.
[You made me the fourth Naruto … I became your husband, I became Naruto's father … and I didn't protect you well!]
Watergate's "I'm sorry" confused Shinna Kushina. In this world, besides Watergate himself, who else could understand the meaning behind it?
However, although she didn't know the meaning behind it, Shinna Kushina slowly reached out her hands and hugged Watergate.
At the same time, she whispered in Watergate's ear, "No matter what happens, I will always be with you!"
These words pulled Watergate, who was immersed in his memories, back to reality. His whole body trembled violently.
Feeling the warmth from his arms, Watergate's turbulent emotions calmed down.
"What a good-for-nothing …"
Watergate immediately laughed at himself. In this matter, no matter how determined he was, once he recalled the past, his emotions would still fluctuate violently.
No matter how outstanding he was, he was still a human, and as long as he was a human, he would be bound by emotions.
It was precisely because of these ties that he had the motivation to move forward.
"That's right …" Great Shui Men also responded in his heart. His emotions were the same as Shui Men's, neither of them calm.
Watergate's arms tightened around Shinna Kushina, and then he said, "Well, I will protect you, and no one can bully you again!"
As soon as he said this, Shinna Kushina in his arms pushed Watergate away. Her beautiful little face couldn't help but show a slight displeasure, and said, "I don't need your protection. If anyone dares to bully me, I will beat them up!"
His actions not only made Shui Men laugh through his tears, but also made Shui Men laugh.
Indeed, if Shinna Kushina hadn't just finished giving birth, it wouldn't have been so easy for the masked man to capture her.
In the past, Watergate had fought side by side with her. Although Shinna Kushina was a Jinchuriki of the Nine Tails and didn't participate in large-scale wars, her strength was not to be underestimated.
Shinna Kushina had the unique ability of the Uzumaki Clan, which was enough to suppress the Nine Tails.
In a battle, although this ability didn't exist to suppress the tailed beasts, it was still extremely powerful.
It was just that Shinna Kushina hadn't awakened this ability yet.
"Yes … no one can bully you, Shinna Kushina," Watergate said with a smile. Shinna Kushina heard this and raised her white neck slightly proudly.
"Have you had dinner?" However, Shinna Kushina quickly asked Watergate again.
"Not yet," Watergate said. He was too focused on reading the history books and forgot about the time.
Shinna Kushina heard this and hurriedly said, "Then I will help you heat up the food."
"Let me do it myself," Watergate said. He couldn't bear to see Shinna Kushina work harder.
Unexpectedly, Shinna Kushina pursed her lips and said, "No, today is your birthday, you are not allowed to do anything."
"Uh …" Seeing Shinna Kushina anxious, Watergate didn't dare to breathe.
Whether it was in the past or now, no matter how famous Watergate was in the ninja world, even as Naruto, in front of Shinna Kushina, he would never disobey her.
It's not a shameful thing for a man to be afraid of his wife. On the contrary, it's a sign of love.
"Okay."
Watergate had to sit down obediently, and then Shinna Kushina began to get busy.
Looking at her busy back and forth between the hall and the kitchen, Watergate couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Some people were fated to be together. Even if they had crossed life and death, or even time and space, this feeling would never change …
"Rustle!"
At the same time, somewhere in the courtyard of Watergate's family, the grass that had just sprouted trembled slightly, and some kind of fluctuation seemed to appear on the ground.
However, this fluctuation didn't last long and soon calmed down. No one knew.
