Although the room was very spacious, there were not many furniture and no decorations. There was nothing else except the large Uzumaki clan's family crest on the wall, which showed the frugality of the owner of the room.

"Kushina, I feel relieved when I see how you look now."

On the other side, Uzumaki Mito looked at Setsuna after calming Kushina's mood.

In fact, the reason why she wanted to see Setsuna was that the Third Hokage visited her this morning and asked her to check whether Setsuna was a threat or other possibilities.

As for why it was Mito Uzumaki?

It's simple, because she has an ability called "Sense Malice".

[Perception of malice: The ability to identify good and evil, one of the special functions of the Nine-Tails Chakra. The Nine-Tails is a collection of hatred. Because it attaches the most importance to emotions, the more pain and hatred it can feel, the more intense it is. For malice Have a keen sense of perception. 】

"Is this?! Not feeling the slightest emotion?".

Chapter 60 The Will of Fire (please support)

In this case, either Setsuna has no ill intentions towards Konoha, or her ability does not work on Setsuna. Of course, there may also be other reasons. Uzumaki Mito is somewhat confused about Setsuna's background.

"However... his eyes are as clear as a baby's, and judging from his spirit, he seems to be a child who is not good at lying. With his casual, lazy and unsuspecting sitting posture, it is hard to imagine that this child actually defeated Konoha White Fang, no. Do you know if it’s because of a generous heart or because of confidence in one’s own strength?”

Although he had some doubts in his heart, Mito Uzumaki could tell at a glance that Setsuna was not an evil person. Instead, he looked kind-hearted, and he did not sense any malice from beginning to end.

So at present, he should not pose any threat to Konoha, but when did this genius appear in the ninja world?

"Ahem, Kushina, please go out for a moment. I have something to say to him alone."

"Grandma Mito..."

The girl originally wanted to persist, but when she saw Uzumaki Mito's kind smile and Setsuna's slight nod, Kushina left the room in confusion.

There were only two people left in the room, an old man and a young man.

"Hehehe~ Kushina will be taken care of by you from now on. I hope she will spend her future life in happiness. Can you agree to the last request of this old woman who is about to die?"

Kushina's actions made Uzumaki Mito feel happy, and then looked at Setsuna with somewhat cloudy eyes, and said kindly like the grandmother next door.

"...She is less than six years old. Isn't it too early to talk about these things?"

Good guy, Tuogu is straight to the point right from the start?

But isn't it a little premature to say this without first looking at Kushina's current age?

Setsuna didn't expect that Uzumaki Mito didn't say anything else to him, and handed Kushina's future to him as soon as he opened his mouth, but now he hasn't even written a word about it, after all, Kushina is still so young.

"Six years old is not too young anymore. Before there was peace in the ninja world, many six-year-old children would go to the battlefield to fight. Many of them never came back from the war because of this... Sorry, sorry, people like it when they get older. Nagging, I hope you don’t mind.”

It seemed that the chat box had been opened, or maybe it was a rare person to talk to. In short, Uzumaki Mito began to sigh with emotion, and his expression was full of memories of the past.

"No, if you like, just introduce me to the past history of the ninja world."

Setsuna still had great respect for the old man in front of him who had devoted his life to Konoha and was about to run out of oil, even if he had nothing to do with Konoha Village.

All in all, this is a respectable old lady.

What's more, Setsuna is also very curious about the past history of the Naruto world. After all, he didn't know much about it when he was chasing the series. He only saw the story of the patriarchs of the two major families in Konoha, from falling in love with each other to falling in love and killing each other.

"That's good. Before the ninja village appeared, the ninja world at that time was still dominated by family forces. Each ninja group was hired by anyone who paid a high price to perform assassination and annihilation missions. In order to survive, the ninjas at that time, Even the surname cannot be disclosed casually...even young children have to fight on the battlefield, resulting in a significant decrease in the average life expectancy..."

Then, Uzumaki Mito didn't care at all whether Setsuna was being polite or not, and directly told the general background of the turbulent era in the Naruto world.

And listening, Setsuna also understood the meaning of the old woman's words, that is, the village is very important to everyone, so if you protect the village well, no matter how much sacrifice you make, it is worth it.

Well, isn't this the "Will of Fire" of the first Hokage?

"..."

Also, listening to Uzumaki Mito telling many stories about Konoha before or after the establishment of Konoha will make people unknowingly tend to Konoha, and at least they will have a favorable impression.

"For the sake of the village, even if... Konoha makes the Uzumaki clan and the Senju clan history, is that worth it?"

To be honest, because Setsuna was not born in the world of Naruto, he didn't really understand the concept of "The Will of Fire" and the village, but he also knew the purpose of Uzumaki Mito meeting him this time.

As for the annihilation of the Uzumaki clan, is it related to Konoha?

In fact, this is just a wild guess made by Setsuna, but doesn't Konoha have a pot king? It seems that as long as the matter is thrown to the pot king of Konoha, it can be explained or cleared.

For example, after Konoha took away Kushina, the Uzumaki clan was of no use. In order to prevent other ninja villages from following suit and wanting to obtain the Uzumaki clan's sealed tail beast, Konoha Pot King sent people to destroy the Uzumaki clan.

Does this explanation make it much clearer?

"Yes, no matter who harms the village, even if they are friends, brothers, or even children, they can be sacrificed. Even...the family can be sacrificed."

This is Uzumaki Mito's answer. Should I say that she is worthy of being the first Hokage's wife?

This concept is what Senju Hashirama said before killing Uchiha Madara, that he could sacrifice everything for the village.

"Sorry, I can't understand your thoughts, because in my opinion, family members are more important than home. Only those who have family have a home. As long as family members are around, then everywhere is home. But if there are no family members, you are the only one left. When you are a human being, is it still a home?”

This is Setsuna's philosophy. He is not that great to protect everyone. He just wants to protect the loved ones around him. This is the will in his heart!

"...".

Chapter 61: Differences in Concepts (Seeking Support)

"..."

The ideas of both parties are a conflict between the small family and everyone, and there is no way to say who is right or wrong.

It's just because the world and environment are different that there are differences in concepts, so after knowing Setsuna's philosophy, Uzumaki Mito stopped nagging.

"Well, if you were born in Konoha, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to become the Hokage that everyone recognizes."

"Well~ Hokage, what is that? Can it be eaten? And why do I have to become Hokage?"

Well, from this dialogue, we can see the concepts of both parties.

"Forget it... let's not talk about these, haha~ Let's talk about other topics. I wonder what you think of Konoha?"

Uzumaki Mito knew that for a while, it would be difficult for him to argue against Setsuna's philosophy, not to mention that she was not good at it. The dying old man just wanted to make his last contribution to Konoha.

"Konoha?"

Setsuna didn't expect why the old woman in front of him would turn to this topic again, but after thinking for a while, he decided to answer truthfully.

"It doesn't feel bad, it will grow in the hands of the Third Hokage, and then... it will also decline in his hands, believe it or not."

Think about Konoha's style of fighting against four in the early stage, and in the later stage, it was almost overtaken by the Cloud Ninja Village. There are many reasons for this, but the third generation of Hokage must account for a large part of the responsibility.

Well, there is also a certain Konoha Potato King who does some shady things in the name of Konoha.

If that's the case, forget it, it doesn't matter if the result is beneficial to Konoha. Unfortunately, in the end, he either weakens Konoha or attracts enemies for Konoha, so he became the famous "Konoha Pot King".

"It seems you already know something about the Third Hokage."

"Well, he would be a good Hokage, but only a good Hokage."

How could Setsuna not see Konoha's solicitation for him?

Even the wife of the first Hokage in front of her was dispatched, which shows some of the thoughts of the third Hokage.

If he had not traveled through the world of Moi, but the world of Naruto, then he would definitely care about many things. But now he is not from Konoha Village, and he will not stay here for a long time in the future, so he thinks about so many things. What?

Does the strength of Konoha have anything to do with him?

"……I see."

The topic had been chatted to death by someone, so Uzumaki Mito did not persist. However, from the conversation just now, she also knew that Setsuna would not do anything to Konoha. It seemed that her vision was not limited to the village of Konoha.

"Then, I'm sorry."

After ending the topic, the atmosphere became a little quiet, so Setsuna did not choose to continue chatting. Instead, he gave a slight salute to the old man, stood up and left the room.

"Crack!"

"Brother Shanna?"

Outside the door, when Setsuna opened the wooden sliding door, Kushina, who had been waiting here, immediately ran to his side with bright eyes and looked up at him with her big eyes blinking.

"Well, is there anything else you want to say to Granny Mito? If not, we should go back."

He raised his hand and rubbed the girl's little head. Setsuna did not explain to Kushina what he had just talked with Uzumaki Mito in the room, but asked after looking at the sky.

"Are you going back? Then I'm going to say goodbye to Granny Mito."

"Go."

Soon, after Setsuna ignored the stares of some ninjas around him, Kushina and Kushina, who had finished saying goodbye to Mito Uzumaki, left the Senju clan leader's mansion.

"...By the way, I didn't see Tsunade, and her brother, isn't he at home?"

……

"Mito-sama."

"Well, go and invite Hiruzen."

"Yes."

After sensing the two breaths leaving, Mito Uzumaki sat in the room and thought for a while, and then ordered the ninja guarding the door.

Of course, there was no need for her to send someone to notify the Third Hokage, because not long after the ninja left, the Third Hokage's figure appeared in the Senju Clan.

It can be seen that the Third Hokage is still very concerned about this matter.

"Hiruzen, I plan to perform the Tailed Beast Transfer Ceremony tomorrow."

After seeing the arrival of the Third Hokage, Uzumaki Mito went straight to the topic without nagging, and her decision immediately made the Third Hokage's eyes widen in surprise.

Although Uzumaki Mito has almost run out of gas, he can still persist for another year or two. After all, the Uzumaki clan is famous for its strong vitality, but now they have proposed to replace the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki!

"But Kushina still..."

"Needless to say Hiruzen, the arrival of that boy will change the world, and Konoha needs bonds!"

Although Setsuna's emotions and malice could not be discerned, the brief interaction just now made Uzumaki Mito discover an astonishing thing, and that was——

Kyuubi is afraid!

This was something that even Uzumaki Mito didn't expect. The notorious tailed beast would actually be afraid of a boy?

You must know that it is the Kyuubi. The Kyuubi is the strongest among the nine tailed beasts. What kind of existence can even it be afraid of?

But through the conversation just now, Uzumaki Mito also knew that Setsuna didn't care much about Konoha Village at all, so for the future of Konoha, she must seek other bonds.
