Chapter 31 Mito's Tragedy

Although she appeared calm on the surface just now, she was in a mess inside.

Although she had long been accustomed to Xuanwu's considerate care for her, and had no aversion to his physical contact, this time was different.

She showed her most vulnerable side in front of this man, and hid in his arms crying, smearing her snot and tears on his body. It was so shameful.

Looking at the food Xuanwu had prepared for her on the table, Kung Pao Chicken, Saury, Braised Beef in Soy Sauce, and her favorite smashed cucumber and fried peanuts.

Thinking of all that Xuanwu had done for her before, Tsunade fell into deep thought, "Does he like me? Do I like him?"

"How can I, a 20-year-old girl, fall in love with a 16-year-old boy? Although he is indeed tall and handsome, and is my ideal type, I am seven years older than him. If I really fall in love with him, it would be too shameless!!!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. His love for me is the love of a student for a teacher, and my love for him is the love of a teacher for a disciple. It is definitely not love between a man and a woman. It must be like this, yes, it is like this!"

Tsunade began to hypnotize herself, and the effect was very significant. She quickly drove away the unrealistic thoughts in her mind and happily ate the loving dinner that Xuanwu prepared for her. "Xuanwu-kun is really perfect. Whoever marries her in the future will be blessed."

But she herself didn't realize that she had already regarded Xuanwu from a boy to a man.

.....

In Konoha Village, in the underground secret room of the Senju clan's mansion, the four giants of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, all gathered together.

They stood in the four directions of east, south, west and north respectively, looking solemnly at the two people lying on the bed in the basement, one was the awake Mito Uzumaki, and the other was the sleeping Kushina.

There are sealing rituals set up all over and around Kushina and Mito Uzumaki. Mito's stomach is the starting point of the sealing ritual, and Kushina's abdomen is the end point.

The four giants at the four corners of the sealing technique made the Hai, Shen, You and Xu seals with their hands respectively, and at the same time transmitted their own chakra to maintain the operation of the sealing technique.

At this time, in the sealed space inside Uzumaki Mito's body, the Nine-Tails, which was covered by a mountain of stone and looked like Sun Wukong being pressed under the Five Finger Mountain, looked at the countless chains slowly descending from the sky and roared angrily, "Damn Uzumaki Mito, I'm about to succeed, but you actually want to transfer me to a little girl and seal me again, it's simply wishful thinking!!!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox began to exert all its strength, trying to break out of Uzumaki Mito's body before the new seal was formed. As it exploded wildly, the entire space was shaking, and the stone mountain pressing on it also showed a tendency to be overturned.

Uzumaki Mito, who maintained a half-open seal, was in great pain. She mobilized all her chakra to fight against the Nine-Tails while urging the four people: "Speed ​​up, I can't suppress it anymore!"

Upon hearing this, the four of them increased their chakra output, and the sealing chains fell faster, penetrating the stone mountain and binding the Nine-Tails tightly.

Uzumaki Mito could no longer hold on and loosened her hands from the seals. The stone mountains in her space all collapsed, revealing the entire body of the Nine-Tails.

What a huge and terrifying body it was. Even if its neck, limbs, torso and tail were tied up with chains, the residual power it exuded was enough to wipe out the rebellion.

The Third Hokage roared: "Start now."

Following his order, even more powerful chakra burst out from the four people again, and the materialized chakra turbulence blew their hair and clothes into the air.

Uzumaki Mito's eyes and mouth were filled with the red chakra light of the Nine-Tails, and the Nine-Tails was gradually dragged out of Uzumaki Mito's stomach and flowed into Kushina's body through the sealing ritual.

The sleeping Kushina was having a terrible nightmare. In the dream, a huge fox with nine tails waving was chasing her, trying to swallow her in one bite. She could only keep running and couldn't wake up.

......

An hour later, as the seals on the four people's hands changed to "Wei" at the same time, the "Four Symbols Seal - Yangyan" was finally completed, and the entire Nine-Tails was successfully transferred to Kushina's body.

At this time in Kushina's sealed space, the Nine-Tailed Fox was tied to a magma ball suspended in the air like the sun by countless iron chains. Its body was bound by countless chains, and the wooden stakes nailed into its abdomen, limbs and nine tails penetrated its body and hit the inside of the magma ball.

It can be said that the Nine-Tailed Fox's situation at this time is even more miserable than before. When it was inside Uzumaki Mito's body, it was just pinned down by the stone mountain and unable to move. But now, not only does it have to endure the pain of burning magma every day, the wooden nails nailed into its body make it suffer excruciating pain.

The four people who completed the seal finally breathed a sigh of relief. Sarutobi Hiruzen took the lead and walked in front of Uzumaki Mito, followed by the others.

At this time, the red hair of Uzumaki Mito lying on the bed had turned completely gray, and she was also breathing very hard. She looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and wanted to speak but no sound came out.

Although he couldn't hear clearly, Sarutobi Hiruzen knew what Uzumaki Mito was going to say. He held Mito's hand and said solemnly: "Master's wife, please rest assured. I swear in the name of the Hokage that Kushina will be handed over to Akimichi Genbu's care. No one is allowed to interfere. I will also do my best to protect Tsunade and Nawaki and will not let anyone hurt them."

Danzo Shimura obviously had something to say, but because Uzumaki Mito was still alive, he held it back.

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's oath, a smile appeared on Uzumaki Mito's face.

Her pupils began to dilate, and in her dying moments, she seemed to see again the man she had been thinking about day and night. He smiled and slowly extended his hand to her. He was still as naive as ever, and still made her fascinated by him.

"Are you here to pick me up, Hashirama?"

Mito, who had no strength left, miraculously raised her right hand, and then dropped it again as her eyes slowly closed.

She was so tired and needed a good sleep.

It has been so long since she last saw her beloved brother Hashirama. Now she can finally put everything aside and follow in the footsteps of that man.

At 33:1 p.m. on January 11, 11rd year of Konoha, the wife of the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, the God of Ninjas, the princess of the Land of Whirlpools, the most beautiful woman in the Warring States Period, and the first Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Uzumaki Mito, passed away alone in a dim basement.

巧合的是，他的丈夫千手柱间的逝世时间是木叶 17年 1 月 11 日晚上 11 点 11 分。
