Kazuki, hearing Kushina's gratitude for helping Minato, brushed it off, waving a hand indifferently. "It's all for Konoha, no need to thank ."
Kushina sighed. "Kazuki, you've worked so hard for the village..."
But Kushina still looked at Kazuki's hair color with so doubts.
No matter how tough the fight was, it made no sense for a young man with black hair to turn completely gray in just a year. But Kazuki's white hair was special.
It wasn't a dull, aged white, but a silvery hue that gave it a majestic air.
Kushina remained silent, lost in thought, until an idea crossed her mind.
White hair and Kazuki...
Suddenly, she rembered sothing she had seen in the ninja academy textbooks as a child.
The Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama.
He had white hair too!
Kushina's eyes trembled in astonishnt as she cautiously asked him: "Kazuki, why did your hair beco like this? It looks, looks a bit like the Second Hokage, you should pay attention..."
"Have you felt unwell recently?"
With her identity, Kushina didn't know how to deal with such an outrageous thing...
On the one hand, there is the forr Hokage, and on the other hand, there is Kazuki who saved Minato.
After being entangled, Kushina could only remind Kazuki as much as possible...
After hearing this, Senju Tobirama's face turned black. This little Nine-Tails Jinchuriki seed to have a deep misunderstanding of him!
Kazuki shook his head. "Don't worry, Kushina. I'm fine. Don't make a big deal out of it."
Although his tone was calm, his words left Kushina with a strange feeling of discomfort.
Kushina felt that Kazuki was very pitiful.
From her perspective, Kazuki was a sunny and cheerful boy like Minato.
Born in Uchiha but not arrogant, he had a strong strength but was as gentle as a little sun and was the perfect embodint of the will of fire.
Even though Kazuki and Minato were competing for the position of Hokage.
Kushina also had no ill feelings towards Kazuki...
She, driven by her more empathetic side, tried to put herself in his shoes...
An Uchiha who loved his village, a genius whose dream was to beco Hokage, a hero who reached the top on the battlefield… Only to be betrayed by a forr Hokage.
If she were in his situation...
If Uzumaki Mito, under the pretext of protecting her as a relative, was actually just waiting for the opportunity to take over her body…
Kushina was sure that she would definitely collapse!
If there was another Nine-Tails in her body, Kushina felt that she would tear open the seal and use her life to vent her anger at this dark life...
But Kazuki in front of her...
He showed no signs of despair.
Although his eyes showed a certain weariness, he maintained a calm deanor as he conversed with Kojiro. His dealings with the villagers were cordial and friendly, and he seemingly enjoyed the tri-colored dango he held in his hands.
Is this what they call greatness?
Kushina looked at Kazuki's white hair with growing unease.
She wanted to believe that her assumptions were wrong…
However, her exceptional perception allowed her to sense emotions in other people's chakra, and being so close to Kazuki, she could clearly sense the turbulence within him.
At the core of his being, feelings of anxiety, confusion, anger, and despair oscillated. A tinge of extre darkness floated in his chakra, like a cold shadow slipping into his interior.
What Kushina didn't know was that those emotions didn't belong to Kazuki, but to Senju Tobirama who lived inside him.
At that mont, Tobirama had unconsciously activated his Sharingan and was staring at the Rinne Sharingan floating in Kazuki's ntal space. Desperately, he tried to find a way to help Kazuki...
However, although Kushina sensed the emotions very accurately, she misunderstood...
She thought that the emotions of Senju Tobirama were the resentnt buried in Kazuki's heart...
It was just because of the will of fire and the gentle personality that Kazuki hid it in the deepest part, just like sealing the nine-tailed fox in her body.
"What a gentle boy..."
Kushina clenched her fists weakly, many mories erged in her mind, and her face beca more and more solemn.
She thought of the topic that Tsunade always ntioned when she ca to her privately several tis...
"Kushina, is there any sealing technique for the soul or conscious chakra body?"
"Ah, don't think too much, I'm just curious, just scientific research, scientific research..."
Kushina was very curious about why Tsunade was interested in this aspect.
Jutsu involving soul attacks were extrely rare in the shinobi world. The only one known in Konoha was the Spirit Transformation Technique, a kinjutsu, and after Katō Dan's death, there wasn't even anyone who had mastered it.
As for the conscious chakra body, Kushina only thought of the tailed beasts at that ti.
She thought Tsunade was trying to help her master the power of the Nine-Tails, and comforted Tsunade not to worry. After all, even Uzumaki Mito couldn't completely control the Nine-Tails. It was good enough that she didn't have too much conflict with the demon fox under Kazuki's diation...
Now it seems that Tsunade has known the situation in Kazuki's body for a long ti and has made preparations in private...
Kushina's heart trembled suddenly, and the anger she felt at Senju Tobirama's atrocities eased a little. There are still good people in this village who stick to their principles!
Even if Senju Tobirama is Tsunade's second grandfather...
But Tsunade still chose to find a way to protect Kazuki and quietly looked for a way to solve Kazuki's dilemma.
'Damn Second Hokage…' Kushina cursed in her mind.
She took a deep breath and suddenly stood up. With a determined look, she spoke to Kazuki in a firm voice: "If you ever need anything… anything… just let know. I'll do my best to help you."
Then, she gave a faint smile and added, "When we're done eating, I'll have so sealing technique scrolls for you. Do your best, Kazuki!"

"Thank you, Kushina." Kazuki smiled helplessly: "I will do my best."
Kushina stared at him, as if stunned for a mont.
For so reason, at that very mont, she thought she saw a red glow emanating from Kazuki's white hair...
She blinked several tis, hard. Had it just been her imagination?
As Kazuki savored the dango, he couldn't help but be amazed by Kushina's incredible ability to jump to conclusions.
He had co to this dango shop primarily for the Nine-Tails inside Kushina. He wanted to obtain so of its chakra as a small gift for when he t Kaguya.
However, before the Nine-Tails could make any moves...
Kushina had only observed his hair and felt his chakra, and had imdiately drained all the heritage of the Uzumaki clan...
As Kazuki sat thinking in a good mood, he decided to channel so tailed beast chakra into his Rinne Sharingan.
Imdiately, the Rinne Sharingan sparkled crimson as it began to tremble with excitent, as if a starving man who had gone three days without food had finally tasted a rich broth. A pure, unbridled greed was revealed.
anwhile, the Nine-Tails stared at Kazuki in astonishnt, noticing his white hair. 'This Uchiha's chakra… that white hair… makes feel like I'm standing in front of the old man.'
The Nine-Tails' mind quickly reviewed his encounters with Kazuki.
At first, he had believed Kazuki was the reincarnation of Madara's chakra. Later, he thought he might be the reincarnation of Indra. But his calm and kind personality didn't match those characteristics, so he began to suspect he had so connection to the Sage of the Six Paths...
And suddenly...
When Kazuki transferred so of the tailed beast's chakra into his Rinne Sharingan...
Even through Kushina's body, the Nine-Tails felt its chakra shudder out of control. A deep fear, rooted in its very essence, paralyzed its body.
The Nine-Tails' heart was filled with fury and terror.
Years had passed… he couldn't even rember how many…
The last ti he had felt sothing like this was when Madara revealed his true identity as a split part of the Ten-Tails…
But this ti…
The Nine-Tails felt as if he were standing in front of the Ten-Tails himself, as if his very will was about to be annihilated and his existence absorbed once again.
