Chapter 22 The Call from the Blood Boundary Front (Part 2)

"We can't let Kushina go so easily this time!"

"Indeed, she went a little too far this time."

"Also, what's going on with her disciple? Isn't it used to calm Kushina? Why are the two of them messing around together?"

"Anyway, she must be severely punished this time. The Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki peeked into the sealed book. This is definitely a dangerous thing."

"But after all, she did not take away the sealed book, nor did she make a rubbing. In fact, it did not cause any serious harm to me."

"Sarutobi, this is not a question of whether it caused harm, but a question of Kushina's attitude. She came into contact with the Sealed Book very simply and without any scruples. This is the problem!"

………………

The Hokage and several advisors had a heated discussion about the shocking crime committed by Kushina. Several people had different opinions on her punishment.

Although he was quite annoyed with Kushina's actions, during the dispute, he still stood on Kushina's side and said a lot of good things for her.

Let me first talk about the punishment results for Uzumaki Kushina and Kamishiraishi Hagoromo: four months of imprisonment.

If these four months of confinement were spent in Konoha's prison, then this punishment would be quite terrifying. If a ninja from an enemy village had spent less than two weeks in Konoha's prison, the punishment from his own village would be The same goes for the treatment of rebellious ninjas. Although Kushina and Hagoromo's actions cannot be considered as rebellious ninjas, they are inevitable to suffer in prison.

But the place of confinement is not a prison, but the two people's homes. For Hagoromo, this is a painless punishment. For him, staying home for four months is nothing.

But for Kushina, who is used to being free and crazy, this is a quite serious punishment.

Several other consultants besides the Hokage had strong opinions on this punishment. They believed that the Hokage's sentencing was too light, but unfortunately the Hokage insisted on his opinion.

This involves Konoha's decision-making principles, that is, when the Hokage is in office, these advisors only have the right to make suggestions. The decision-making power is in the hands of the Hokage. Only when the Hokage's position is vacant, can several advisors have the opportunity to exercise some of their rights. The real power of the Hokage.

Of course, their greatest power is probably their extremely significant influence on the Hokage election.

In short, when it comes to Kushina, they still have to listen to the Hokage. They can be dissatisfied, but they cannot interfere with the Hokage's decision-making.

In short, Kushina and Hagoromo's life in captivity began.

For Hagoromo, daily life is about refining chakra, practicing ninjutsu, researching sealing techniques, exercising physical skills, eating and sleeping. The old day passes and the new one comes.

There is an ANBU ninja who monitors him and brings him meals every day.

One day, two days, three days...

Then the new year passed, and Hagoromo spent his twelfth birthday in captivity.

Then four months passed.

After four months, Kushina and Hagoromo finally met for the first time. This was also the first time they saw a living person besides ANBU ninjas after this period of time passed.

"Kushina-sensei, I think you have turned white. Well, you have taken good care of your skin." Hagoromo complained as soon as they met.

Nonsense, how can it not be white? I haven’t seen the sun for four months.

"Really? You are still a little pale as before. I don't know whether you are white or not. I just feel that I am a little afraid of the sun now." As she said that, Kushina raised her hand to cover the sun.

She has crystal clear skin, is afraid of the sun, and has super fighting power... Wait, is this going to change the setting? Is Kushina not from the Uzumaki clan, but from the Yatsura clan?

In short, Kushina was finally free, and it was even more difficult for her to suppress certain emotions after being suppressed for so long... She was going to the front line.

This time no one tried to persuade her. She just wanted to leave Konoha and go to the battlefield.

Of course the Hokage couldn't agree.

So Kushina wrote 50 petitions to Naruto every day and persevered.

So Naruto compromised... Before Kushina caused any trouble again, he agreed to let Kushina go to the front line for a short-term mission.

Is this probably compensation for having Kushina imprisoned for so long?

To sum up, N years after the start of the Third Ninja War, at Kushina's constant request, she was finally sent to the front line.

This incident illustrates a truth: be afraid of taking everything seriously. As long as you persevere, there will always be results. Of course, the results include good and bad.

In order to ensure the safety of Kushina, the mission assigned to them by the Hokage this time is quite simple. Although it is an A-level mission, it does not necessarily trigger a battle-it will escort a team of medical ninjas to Konoha to defeat Sunagakure. Frontline Command.

At this time, the battle between Konoha and Suna Ninja could already see a victory. Perhaps Suna Ninja was already thinking about how to exit the war with dignity.

The trigger for the outbreak of the Third Ninja World War was the disappearance of the Third Kazekage, but in fact this war was just a continuation of the Second Ninja War, and the Kazekage incident was just an excuse and the breaking point of the war. , the contradictions between the Ninja Village are deep-rooted.

At the beginning of the war, the Suna Ninja once invaded the territory of the Land of Fire, but Konoha quickly stabilized the situation, and in the following years successfully pushed the battle line out of the country. However, due to the multi-front war , Konoha has not counterattacked the Kingdom of Wind for the time being, and the battlefield between the two sides is now located in the small country of Kawakawa between the two.

On the front, the two sides are at odds with each other, and conflicts may break out at any time. Formally speaking, Konoha has already taken the initiative on the battlefield.

Therefore, the Sunagakure front line is a relatively safe one among all battlefields.

There are twenty medical ninjas in the medical team for this operation, and they are all non-combat medical ninjas. Their combat effectiveness is basically negligible, so they need a large number of guards. It is impossible for only Kushina and Kushina to take on the guard duty this time. Hagoromo... Two people are guarding 20 people. This is not guarding, but sending them to death.

Therefore, in addition to the two masters and apprentices, there were four teams of sixteen ANBU ninjas as escorts, making a total of eighteen escorts.

But in fact, among the missions this group of ANBU ninjas received, the first priority target for protection was Uzumaki Kushina, and the second target was the medical ninja. It was even stated clearly in the mission that if necessary, all twenty people Can be discarded.

Therefore, these sixteen ANBU ninjas are not so much here to protect the medical ninjas as they are here to protect and monitor Kushina.

As for our protagonist Hagoromo-san, sorry, the ANBU will not pay attention to him. On the battlefield, he has to rely on himself to fend for himself.
