Chapter 109 Brothers are awesome
After calming Kushina down, Minato and the others chatted with the old woman for a while before saying goodbye and going home.
"You guys go home first, I still need to report to the old man."
Tsunade glanced at Kushina's small hand that was tightly holding onto Minato's, and smiled meaningfully.
"Cough—I'm going to soak in a hot spring. I've been in the Land of Rain for so long, I feel like I'm going to get moldy."
.
Rope Tree gave an awkward twitch of his lips.
He witnessed the relationship between Minato and Kushina, and during this time, he also witnessed the ambiguous relationship between Minato and Mikoto.
He's just straightforward, but he's not stupid.
Getting involved in these kinds of things could potentially lead to death.
Watching the two figures disappear one after the other, Minato felt a sudden unease for no apparent reason. He looked at Kushina beside him and said, "Let's go home first."
"Um--"
Kushina nodded without saying anything.
On his way home, people would greet Minato from time to time, and he would politely respond to each one, making him a star in Konoha.
Soon, the two returned home.
Kushina silently entered the room, sat down at the dining table without saying a word, puffed out her cheeks and stared expectantly at Minato, as if waiting for something.
Seeing this, Minato sighed slightly and, thinking that what was meant to happen would happen, sat down opposite Kushina.
Minato struggled to find the right words: "Um—Kushina, there's something I want to tell you."
Kushina looked dejected: "It's about Mikoto-nee, isn't it?"
"Um--"
Seeing Kushina's dejected look, Minato suddenly felt a pang of pity.
The words I had prepared were stuck in my throat and I couldn't say them.
"Are you two dating?"
Kushina suddenly raised her head and stared intently at Minato.
Minato quickly waved his hand: "Not yet—"
Kushina's tone became more forceful: "So, Minato, you don't like me anymore? You don't want to be with me?"
Minato quickly shook his head: "How could that be?"
"call"
Upon hearing this, Kushina suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, her expression relaxing: "Then it's alright!"
Minato was taken aback by Kushina's reaction: "? But I—"
Snapped!
A small fist suddenly punched Minato on the forehead, startling him.
Kushina clenched her small fists, her pretty face tense: "Anyway—we're even now."
"Kushina————"
Minato touched his forehead, his expression complex.
"Ah—it's been so long since I've had your cooking!"
Kushina stood up, interlaced her fingers, propped her hands above her head, and stretched.
"I'm going to buy groceries!"
Minato quickly stood up, looking gently at the red-haired girl in front of him: "Want to come along?"
"Um----"
Kushina gave a noncommittal "hmm" and turned her head away: "Let's invite Mikoto-nee along too, since we're teammates in the same squad—"
As soon as she finished speaking, a pair of hands suddenly wrapped around Kushina's shoulders.
Feeling the warmth of Minato's embrace, Kushina gently nuzzled against his shoulder, like a contented kitten.
"You don't have to force yourself."
Minato's tone carried a hint of apology; no matter what, he was in the wrong.
He had expected Kushina to be angry and furious, making a huge scene, but she was surprisingly calm.
"Hmph, what can I do? Who told you to be so popular? Konoha Hero~"
Kushina snorted and pouted, "Besides, the book says that no man is immune to infidelity, so I expected this kind of thing, given your personality—humph!"
Upon hearing this, Minato was somewhat taken aback: "It says in the book?"
"It's nothing!"
Kushina grabbed Minato's wrist and led him outside.
She had borrowed some romance novels from Nono, intending to use them to win over Minato, but it was really difficult to say such things aloud.
"Let's go, it'll get dark soon!"
Soon, the two arrived at the Uchiha clan's territory and, after asking around, learned the location of Mikoto's house.
The doorbell rang, and Mikoto rushed to open the door. She was slightly taken aback when she saw Minato and Kushina.
Seeing Kushina's gaze, which was a mixture of anger and scrutiny, Mikoto felt a pang of guilt.
"Kushina——"
"Misaka-nee-san—"
""
Kushina drawled, her eyelids drooping, her dead fish eyes fixed on Mikoto: "You actually ran away behind my back?"
"I'm so sorry!"
Mikoto panicked and quickly bowed, "I'm sorry, Kushina, this has nothing to do with Minato-kun, it's all my fault—"
"Fine, I forgive you."
Kushina waved her hand dismissively, and Mikoto was taken aback upon hearing this.
"Why?"
"After all, Minato and I never really defined our relationship; we were just compatible because we liked each other."
Kushina pouted: "To say it's first come, first served—that doesn't really apply. At least it's Minato's freedom to like whomever he wants, and I have no right to criticize him. Who told me to be so slow?"
As she spoke, she turned her head and glared fiercely at Minato.
Mikoto stared blankly at Kushina, unable to believe that Kushina would say such a thing.
Feeling Kushina's fierce little glare, Minato waved his hand with a smile. On the way here, he had come to understand Kushina's thoughts a little better.
Kushina has been with him ever since she came to Konoha, and she is very dependent on him.
Three years have passed, and although the two have not officially defined their relationship, they have long since become an inseparable part of each other's lives.
Given Kushina's personality, how could she not be angry? How could she not be heartbroken?
The reason for this reaction was simply because Kushina indulged him.
"Anyway, do you want to go grocery shopping together? Minato is going to cook a big meal later."
Kushina turned her head away, pouting, and said with feigned strength, "After all, we're teammates in the same squad—"
"Kushina——"
Mikoto's gaze lingered on Minato's face for a moment.
Minato smiled gently at her, his eyes filled with apology and expectation.
"OK!"
Mikoto nodded happily, put on her shoes, and took Kushina's hand: "Then let's go!"
Feeling the warmth emanating from Mikoto's hand, Kushina suddenly felt something was off.
Before she could think any further, Mikoto had already pulled her along and walked quite a distance.
As Minato watched the two figures disappear, he felt a huge weight lifted from his heart, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips.
After a while, we arrived at the shopping street.
Having just finished taking a bath, Rope Tree wandered aimlessly down the street.
I wonder how Minato is doing? Could he have already been killed by Kushina?
With that thought in mind, he wandered aimlessly, not daring to go home at this moment.
If I'm going back, I have to go back with my older sister.
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, and his eyes widened in shock.
At the street corner, Minato, Kushina, and Mikoto were chatting and laughing as they bought groceries together.
Although Kushina would occasionally pout and glare at Minato, the overall atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious, while Mikoto walked gently beside her, occasionally whispering a few words to him.
Rope Tree stared blankly at this scene.
Awesome, bro!
