Kushina was startled.
"....Village?"
She is only 6 years old and she has not been able to think carefully about things like the village.
Although she has only met Mito for a few days, she has regarded her beautiful and somewhat overprotective "elder sister" like her own mother.
Although Mito is old enough to be her grandmother, in terms of identity, the two are the Princesses of Uzumaki Clan.
One is a princess who was married to the 'God of Shinobi', the other is the war orphan of Uzushiogakure who almost died in the chaos of war.
The difference between them is very big, there is no comparability between them.
Kushina, until now, has been an insecure person. Otherwise, she would not hide a kunai under her pillow.
Kushina, who survived the war, matured earlier than most children her age.
So, she faintly learned from the people's attitude in Konoha and realized that they needed her to do something.
However, it was Mito who brought her from the war-torn region to Hidden Leaf and provided her with food and education.
The most important point is that Kushina felt a different kind of love and warmth from Mito's gentle eyes.
So, Kushina wanted to repay Mito.
But, feelings are feelings, but she can't tell how good Hidden Leaf Village is with her eyes closed.
Konoha is good but not her hometown.
Mito's words reminded her of what happened.
For example, those ninja's cold eyes that brought her here. The children of her age laugh at her academic performance or the students in the class who laugh at their red hair.
Although it was true that she beat them herself in the end, she always felt uncomfortable.
However, the important thing was... Tatsumi.
That boy, on that night, apologized carefully, wiped tears off her face awkwardly.
When she entered the Academy, she, who didn't want to be looked down upon by others, had a hot brain and said aloud that she wanted to be the first female Hokage.
Finally, it was only the boy who said he would support her as a Hokage.
Kushina always feels a sense of alienation from Tatsumi.
That is the alienation from Konoha and this World, it is the loneliness of leaving her hometown.
Because Kushina also came to this strange land like this, she intuitively felt more different from others.
They gazed up at the same sky, but looked at different places.
She believes that Tatsumi could also feel it a bit.
Seeing the look of Tatsumi, her heart sometimes throbbed as if being pinched, and then became sad inexplicably.
'But... What is this feeling of stirring in my heart?'
Kushina grabbed the collar of her clothes with her hand and after a long time of silence, she smiled at Mito and said,"...I like it very much..."
"ha ha ha." Mito laughed as she touched Kushina's hair.
"Well, let me think about it. Is it that little kid from Uchiha? What a lucky one. He must make people jealous. He is liked by such a beautiful princess from Uzumaki Clan." Mito held Kushina's chin and looked at her face carefully.
"Grandma Mito" Kushina glared and then stomped her feet with an angry expression.
"Okay, okay. I won't say anything. "
Mito laughed, she looked at Kushina in front of her and felt as if she was watching Tsunade in her childhood.
"Kushina, then do you know about this kind of feeling..." Mito pulled Kushina's hand over, then pointed to Kushina's chest.
"What?"
Kushina tilted her head cutely and showed a confused expression.
"Back then, I married Hashirama. To be honest, I was very unhappy at first. . "
"Because, at the time, in the Land of Fire there was a well known rumor that Senju's Hashirama liked Uchiha's Madara."
"..."
"I was always worried that it may be the truth. Therefore, I was opposed to the marriage. "
"However, I still ended up marrying him."
"It was my responsibility as Uzumaki Clan's Princess and I couldn't shirk responsibility as Clan Princess at that time."
"But then, slowly, I came to like him a bit. Although, he was stupid sometimes, a little dull and his head was not very bright. Although, his relationship with Madara was indeed not….normal."
"But Hashirama, he had something that no one else did. That is, the love for others. His character of not giving up attracted me and made me realize that in this world, love is the most precious bridge to communicate with others and bring peace." (Yup, not trading tailed-beasts)
"One day, he took me to the top of a mountain. There, he told me that he wanted to build a village. A village that would accommodate all clans."
"Then, the Land of Fire would no longer have war. The children would not need to be on the battlefield. Everyone would work together and help each other."
"When I heard it, I was deeply attracted by what he said."
"Love has a lot of power. However, when you love someone, it also means protection and responsibility."
Mito touched her stomach. There were several seals in places Kushina couldn't see.
"My life is about to come to an end. Therefore, I urgently want to find a place for Kurama to live. "
"Although he is feared by the world, he is actually very lonely. The world is afraid of him, so why could he not be afraid of the world? He needs to be filled with love. "
"And with him, you will have enough power to protect Konoha and the people you like."
"So I want to ask you a question. Kushina, are you willing to be the next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki?"
"...I am."
'I don't know what Jinchuriki and Kurama are. However, if Grandma Mito says, it won't harm me.'
The experience in Uzushiogakure taught Kushina the importance of power. Therefore, Kushina immediately nodded and agreed.
"Good child." Mito touched Kushina's head, then stood up with a free smile.
"Finally. " Mito smiled with her eyes narrowed.
"Uzumaki Clan's girls are very passionate and unrestrained. If you meet a boy you like, don't give up. Don't worry about him, grab him boldly."
"That's how I snatched Hashirama from Madara back then." Mito smiled triumphantly.
"Grandma, I…. "
