After bidding farewell to the big cat in the clan, Uchiha led his children to the courtyard of the Senju Hashirama Gate. As soon as they entered, they saw the latter sitting on the corridor carving something, while Mito-san was sitting aside.

She fanned him every now and then.

In early summer, it is still a little hot. Especially, Senju Hashiramamon had just exercised a little with his friends before, and now his whole body is still steaming.

Kyuubi sat aside, basking in the sun and eating snacks. The tailed beast was not afraid of the cold and heat, and the early summer sunshine was a bit comfortable for it.

"Brother, Sister Mito, Nine Lamas!"

"Ah, it's Hotaru-chan here."

"Calamus, come and sit."

"Want some snacks?"

Amid the greetings of the two one-tailed beasts, Uchiha walked to the corridor and sat down sideways with a smile, and asked curiously: "Brother, what are you carving?"

"Here." Senju Hashiramamon raised the unfinished carving in his hand to show to his sister-in-law, "I am making a small gift for my future nephew or niece."

Uchiha stretched out his hand to take it, and found that the wooden sculpture in his hand was a lifelike four-tailed Monkey King. Although it was not polished, it was already quite beautiful. She held it in her hand with some fondness and turned it over, looking forward to it, and a little bit.

He asked worriedly: "Will doing this delay your time, brother?"

"No." Senju Hashiramado replied with a smile, "Anyway, whether you are at home or out, you must have some free time. It would be good to carve something to pass the time. Don't worry, I will definitely do it before you give birth.

I dragged Madara back, and by then, all of this should be done."

"Yeah." Uchiha nodded with a smile, and gave his brother a thumbs up, "Brother, you are still reliable, Madara finally agreed to come back in the winter!"

"Oh?" Senju Hashiramamon suddenly became energetic when he heard this, "You just went to see Madara? What did he say?"

"Well, I went to see how Madara was doing, and then we casually chatted about coming back." Uchiha replied honestly, "In the end, he promised to come back before I give birth. Of course, if he forgets,

, I will go catch him."

"Hahahahaha..." Senju Hashiramado clapped his knees and laughed, "Don't worry, Hotaru-chan, if Madara really forgets by then, I will tie him up and wait for you to catch him."

"Then I'll leave it to you, big brother~" Uchiha clapped his hands, gave his big brother a thumbs up again, and asked, "By the way, big brother, how are you packing your things?"

"Don't worry." Senju Hashiramamon smiled and looked sideways, "With Mito here, everything will be in order."

"I think so, Mito-san is very reliable~"

"That's not true~"

Uzumaki Mito tilted his head and said: "Master Hashiramamon, even if you praise me so much, I will not help you secretly go to the casino."

Senju Hashiramamon: "..."

"Big! Brother!!!"

"Ah ha ha ha ha..." Senju Hashiramamon laughed dryly, "I haven't been there for a long time. I was just curious about whether there have been any changes there since I left. I just wanted to take a look. Well, let's see..."

The two women on the side looked at him sideways at the same time, the meaning of their eyes was obvious——

Guess, do we believe this?

Senju Hashiramamon: "..." The smile froze on his face, and he lowered his head in disappointment.

"...It really doesn't work," Ochiha Uchiha said with some regret, "Mito sister, before big brother leaves, let's gather the whole family and all the tailed beasts to have a good time with big brother?" She could tell,

The eldest brother is not really a gambler, but he is quite interested in this kind of thing...

Uzumaki Mito thought for a while and nodded: "I think it will work." If he doesn't let go of his addiction now, he doesn't know how much trouble he will get into when he goes out. He can't let his brother-in-law, who has been "more tired than a dog" recently, help.

It would be too miserable for a "dead man" to continue paying off his gambling debts...

"That's good." Senju Hashiramato suddenly became energetic and rubbed his hands with a smile, "After dying once, I feel like I have bottomed out and have completely changed my fortune!"

Uzumaki Mito: "..." Looking at people sideways.

Uchiha: "..." Looking at people sideways.

The Nine Lamas couldn't help but look at each other sideways, thinking: How could such a powerful man be so careless? He even lost to him in a bet two days ago.

However, it thought about what the other party had just said, and asked: "Hotata-chan, Gyuuki and the others, are you okay right now?"

After hearing the secrets of the past...

The tailed beasts themselves know very well that they are unlikely to run around the ninja world as freely as they did in the past in a short period of time, because their existence itself is coveted. Indeed, although the other ninja villages are now shocked by

With Konoha's force and demonstrated methods, however, the integration of the ninja world is not something that can be completed in a short period of time. Under this situation, if the tailed beasts are allowed to leave Konoha, who knows whether there will be another one

Will the idea of ​​"betting on the fortune of the village and the fortune of the country" cause a lot of trouble?

Therefore, the tailed beasts all expressed their understanding that they had to stay in Konoha for the time being.

At the same time, the Uchiha belt also promised them that one day in the future, they can definitely run around the ninja world as they did in the past, and they may even accompany them to the vast universe to see "

"The real world". So, until then, please be patient.

but……

Being idle is also idle...

Therefore, the tailed beasts also all sought jobs in Konoha. Yes, they successfully obtained the establishment through their super personal abilities and became Konoha's "civil servants".

Of course, in order to prevent panic among the villagers, she is still reducing her body size on a daily basis. By the way, she put on the "condensed Konoha Ninja Uniform" specially prepared for them. Well, there is also a forehead protector on her forehead~

"It's pretty good." Uchiha said with a smile, "They are all smart and hard-working, and they completed the work at hand perfectly."

"In this way..." Upon hearing this, Kyuubi lowered his head in both relief and disappointment.

Uchiha Ouzi understands its mood, but...

"Don't worry." Senju Hashiramamon said, "Kurama, Tobiramamon will definitely find a way soon to free you again without harming Mito."

After coming back, he apologized to the tailed beasts very seriously and successfully gained their understanding. Therefore, unlike Uchiha Madara, he now has a pretty good relationship with the tailed beasts, and they can even play cards together occasionally.

a relationship.

The little orange fox flicked the nine tails behind him, thought for a moment, and replied slowly: "Even if...it doesn't succeed, it doesn't matter."

"...Huh?" Uchiha Oichi showed a surprised expression, because she knew too well the desire for freedom of the fox in front of her.

"Because human life is really too short." Kyuubi said with some emotion, "For the tailed beasts, there is not much more time than a flower blooming. So, if you can promise

Mito is the first and last Jinchuuriki, and she will indeed let me go free after her death, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to wait a little."

"Kurama..." Uzumaki Mito's face suddenly showed a moved look. Because she is the Jinchūriki of the Nine-Tails, she knows better than anyone how much the other party hates this situation. However...

But it was willing to endure it for her.

In this world, there are not many humans who can do this for her, right?

"Don't show that expression," Kyuubi curled his lips and turned away, "I just don't want to take the risk of forcibly contacting the seal. Humph, don't be so sentimental! You humans are indeed trouble."

Uzumaki Mito was immediately amused, and thought to himself, oh my, it's just like what Acorus said, he is obviously a canine but has the personality of a cat.

However, this is quite cute.

After thinking for a while, she replied: "I understand, otherwise I will accompany you to work from now on!" Nine-tails cannot go to work like other tailed beasts. In the final analysis, it is still because it is bound by the seal, but if she comes with

If you accompany me, it should be no problem, right?

"Huh?" Kyuubi looked surprised, "Really?"

"Really." Uzumaki Mito nodded seriously, "Hashiramamon-sama is leaving soon anyway, so I don't have to stay with him anymore. It's totally fine to stay with you~"

"Mito..." After hearing this, Senju Hashiramamon suddenly showed a look of guilt. He finally came back, and he had to go out again after only two months of living there. He didn't take her with him, even though there was a reasonable reason.

, but it’s a bit...

Hey, you can tell just by looking at Tobirama, he is probably not a qualified husband.

But even so, he still didn't intend to change his decision. After all, he was really worried about letting Ban go out alone. He was really afraid that he would accidentally "disappear" again, and his friend's body did need it.

care and treatment.

"Okay, Hashiramamon-sama," Uzumaki Mito smiled calmly and tolerantly, "Don't say any more apologies. I'm tired of hearing them. And since I accept your apology, it means that I have already

I fully understand your thoughts and am willing to be considerate. In contrast, I have said many times that I have only one request for you, and that is——

Come back safely."

As long as she can do this and return to her and her family again, then she doesn't want anything else.

"Mito..."

Uchiha looked at the couple who were looking at each other, thought for a moment, stood up quietly, turned around and left quietly, otherwise? Should he stay here and continue to eat "dog food"?

Hey, poor Jiu Lama, even if he doesn’t want to eat, he still has to eat a few bowls~

Senju Hashiramado turned his head sharply, watching the back of his sister-in-law holding up her clothes and running away cautiously like a "kitten stealing cat food". He couldn't help laughing, and laughed out loud, and commented while laughing:

"Hotaro-chan is so cute."

"Yes..." Uzumaki Mito also looked at his sister-in-law and nodded with a smile, "Master Hashiramamon, when you really 'resurrect from the dead', let's have another daughter, like a calamus." She

I heard from my husband that their child who died early... was arranged to be reincarnated soon after he went down. Well, this is also good. The time gate of the Pure Land will not pass, so he lives in the Pure Land in such ignorance.

, may not be a good thing. It would be better to live again, grow up smoothly and live happily. However, I don’t know which family I have fallen into now...

"..."
To be continued...
