Chapter 109 proposes the decision to go to the battlefield of Rain Country!

Ever since Nawaki's death, Uzumaki Mito's energy and spirit seemed to have been drained away. The aging speed of his body functions accelerated significantly, and he became taciturn.

In the huge Two Senju Manors, she was often the only one sitting alone at home.

Sometimes I sit there for hours, and it feels like I'm suffering from dementia.

It is worth mentioning that her 'mind's eye' ability seemed to have been shut down forever with Rope Tree's death.

Heart, heart, heart, my heart is almost dead, and my eyes can no longer see!

She no longer had that extraordinary perception ability, nor did she have the ability to see through people's hearts...

"Grandma Mito..."

Uzumaki Mito came out of her dazed state when Kushina and Ryuun appeared beside her.

"Good children, you are here..." Uzumaki Mito showed a kind smile.

Rope Tree died, and Tsunade went to the battlefield in the Land of Rain. The only one who could accompany her was Kushina. Ryuun would occasionally come to the Senju clan to talk to her and even cook for her. This was also a deliberate request made by Uzumaki Mito.

"Grandma Mito, Liuyun is going to have dinner with us today..." Kushina hugged Uzumaki Mito's arm and shook it gently, looking very happy.

"Really? That's great. Grandma can eat the delicious food made by Xiao Liuyun again..."

Liuyun's cooking skills are much better than Kushina's...

Although Uzumaki Mito felt it was rude to ask the guests to cook, she didn't say much seeing that the two children had no objection.

It was not the first time that Liuyun went to their house to cook. After getting used to it, Uzumaki Mito gradually accepted it.

Even though that little guy is only the same age as our own Shengshu, he is really good at cooking and the dishes he makes are really delicious.

The most important thing is that this caring little warm man is also very considerate of the elderly. The meals are cooked soft and easy to chew, and the elderly with weak teeth say they are delicious after eating them...

"Grandma, the Third Hokage went to school today and gave Konoha forehead protectors to many people. Liuyun and I graduated early!"

At the dinner table, Kushina told the news with a smile.

"This is really unexpected news... Didn't Sarutobi Hiruzen reveal the news in advance? He said people should graduate and they can graduate right away."

Uzumaki Mito was slightly dissatisfied.

"Hehe...it's true that we were caught off guard, but there's nothing we can do about it. Konoha is in urgent need of manpower right now, and we'll be carrying out the mission starting tomorrow!" Liuyun said with a smile.

The Konoha high-level officials made decisions without even considering the children's thoughts. Today the children are still in school, but tomorrow they will start their mission.

The decision was a bit hasty, but special matters must be handled specially in wartime, so there is no doubt about it.

"Grandma, Liuyun and I can't be in the same group. We can't do the mission together!"

Kushina thought about it and decided to tell everyone about the class division. She really wanted to form a team with Brother Liuyun.

"is it?"

Uzumaki frowned when she heard this, and then she said seriously:

"Go to the Hokage building later and ask Sarutobi Hiruzen to put you in a separate group. Just tell him that it was my request."

"!!!"

"Hahaha! I knew grandma is the best!" Kushina was overjoyed and extremely happy.

The Third Hokage would bow his head 90 degrees and call her "Adult" whenever he saw Grandma Mito. Kushina knew that Grandma Mito's words were effective, so she revealed the news to her.

After dinner, Kushina originally wanted to take Liuyun to the Hokage building, but for some reason, Liuyun had no intention of going out. Instead, he raised his hand to signal her to sit down.

"Actually, I want to... go to the Rain Country battlefield."

In the living room, Liuyun said this calmly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Kushina and Uzumaki Mito's eyes widened with horror on their faces.

"You...what nonsense are you talking about!"

Kushina stood up suddenly and became anxious in an instant.

"You are just a Genin. Why are you going to a battlefield? Don't you want to live?"

Kushina's voice rose unconsciously.

"I made an agreement with Teacher Orochimaru that after graduation, we will go to the battlefield of Rain Country..."

In fact, Liuyun had originally planned to tell Kushina about this matter in advance to give her more psychological preparation, but the Konoha high-level decision to allow her to graduate early disrupted his plans.

Of course, it is not too late for him to say it now. It doesn't matter if he postpones his trip to the Rain Country battlefield for a few days. After all, this is his own decision and no one is forcing him.

But if Kushina wants to be on the same team with him and go on a mission together, she will probably have to wait until later.

"Then I'll go with you..."

Kushina no longer cared about pretending to be reserved in front of Grandma Mito. She sat down next to Liuyun and hugged his arm.

"Don't be ridiculous. Why would a girl like you go to a battlefield? Besides, you are too weak and don't have the ability to protect yourself!"

Liuyun said seriously, this was not an attack on Kushina, it was the truth.

"How am I weak? I took second place in the ranking competition, and you only took third place. How come I can't protect myself?"

Kushina's face flushed red, she was very dissatisfied, and her eyes were filled with tears that were about to fall.

Liuyun didn't plan to take her to the battlefield in the Rain Kingdom. She was very sad, but she was more worried.

The death of Nawaki left a huge psychological trauma on both Uzumaki Mito and herself.

How could they feel at ease when they heard that another close one was going to that dangerous place?

"Silly girl……"

Liuyun shook his head and laughed, subconsciously reaching out to touch her soft red hair.

"Ranking battles are just childish fun. You've been by my side for so long, don't you know my true strength?"

Kushina was visibly stunned when these words came out.

Using ranking battles to measure strength was obviously a foolish statement she made in her haste. Thinking carefully about Liuyun's powerful strength, Kushina subconsciously felt a lot more at ease.

"You should have the strength of a jonin now, right?"

Uzumaki Mito suddenly spoke.

She asked this question with certainty, as if she had already known how powerful the boy in front of her was.

More than half a year ago, Liuyun had the chakra capacity of a jōnin. Uzumaki Mito would definitely not believe that he only had power but no ninjutsu or means to exert it.

After all, Ryuun is considered a disciple of Orochimaru, and he is a very secretive kid. Even now, Uzumaki Mito cannot see through this kid.

She only knew that this child was very strong, obviously much stronger than her deceased grandson!

And she was also certain that Liuyun's strength was by no means as simple as it seemed.
