Kabuto wiped his sweat. He had been busy outside all day and hadn't seen Nono Yakushi come out yet.
"Are you having any problems, Dou?"
As Yakushi Nonou descended the stairs, she straightened the wrinkles in her black nun's habit.
"No, I just wanted to see you."
Kabuto Yakushi shook his head.
Thank you to reader 202103017402768836 for the donation.
Chapter 379 The final Five-Tails is obtained; all Tailed Beasts are collected.
"I'm always here."
Yakushi Nonou smiled nonchalantly, thinking to herself that Yakushi Kabuto still had a childlike heart.
Then, Pharmacist Nonou summoned the old caregiver and the fat nun, who were two long-time employees of the orphanage.
She asked the two of them to prepare extra food for the evening to welcome Kiyoshi's arrival.
The plump nun looked troubled. She knew that Qing Si was of noble status and the director's favorite student, but the orphanage's finances simply could not support such extravagance.
Pharmacist Nono noticed the fat nun's concerns and understood that she was worried about the orphanage.
So he explained:
"Qingsi has already provided financial support to the orphanage, so we should also be the hosts."
She explained to the plump nun and the old caregiver that Qing Si had tripled its funds.
The plump nun and the old caregiver were surprised, and then hurriedly went to do as the director instructed.
With the relief of Qing Si's financial situation, the orphanage no longer had to live such a tight life.
"three times……"
Kabuto also heard what Nono said, and he mentally calculated how much money was in there.
"The dean should have an easier time now."
"I think to myself," Yakushi Kabuto thought.
He looked up at Yakushi Nonou again.
Yakushi Nonou had a slight blush on her face, as if she had been drinking.
If the Pharmacist Nonou is usually a pure and holy nun, then her every move now exudes a womanly charm.
"Speaking of which, the dean is getting older, but he doesn't seem to be getting any older at all."
"Uruxi exclaimed."
If you didn't know Yakushi Nonou, you would think she was very young.
Soon, night falls.
Kiyoshi ate with everyone, so the children had a very plentiful dinner tonight.
Laughter and cheerful voices could be heard from time to time.
Yakushi Nonou looked at everyone, but sighed inwardly.
This was the beautiful scene she had been hoping for, seeing all the children with innocent smiles.
However, the child who was once innocent is no longer so.
Yakushi Nonou always felt that she had held Kiyoshi back.
She wondered if she had taken Kiyoshi's virginity.
Yakushi Nonou's mind was in turmoil.
After dinner, Kiyoshi and the others stayed overnight at the orphanage.
Early the next morning, Kiyoshi took the two women to Iwagakure Village.
……
Sunlight filters through the leaves on Konoha Street.
Kushina followed behind Sarutobi Biwako with light steps.
As Kushina was about to become a mother, she was very curious about what the child in her womb would be like.
"It's time to move."
Sarutobi Biwako urged him on in a serious tone.
She glanced back at Kushina.
The Uzumaki clan members are always so full of energy, just like the Mito-sama she met back then.
"I know."
Kushina nodded.
She unconsciously touched her belly, her face glowing with maternal love.
"Hey, Mikoto!"
Kushina followed Sarutobi Biwako for a while and then ran into Mikoto.
"Kushina."
Mikoto stopped in her tracks upon hearing the sound, turned to look at Kushina, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes before turning into a gentle smile.
At this moment, Mikoto was carrying an ordinary cloth bag on her shoulder and wearing simple black clothes that concealed her voluptuous figure.
She was holding a baby in her arms. The baby's face was chubby, with the roundness and tenderness of a newborn.
Is it a girl?
Kushina always felt that this child was as beautiful as a woman, and that she could tell that he would definitely have a remarkable appearance in the future.
Looking at Mikoto, who had already given birth to two children, Kushina was very curious about what it was like to be a mother.
"No, it's a boy."
Mikoto shook her head.
Sasuke doesn't have the precocious nasolabial folds on Itachi's face, making him arguably even cuter than Itachi.
Of course, Itachi's appearance is also quite good.
Mikoto considers these situations to be normal.
After all, they all inherited Kiyoshi's excellent bloodline. The inheritance of talent is one aspect, but so is appearance.
"It's a boy."
Kushina was slightly surprised, not expecting it to be a boy.
"It matches the name Sasuke very well."
Kushina spoke.
She originally wanted to visit Mikoto when she gave birth to her second child, but due to some matters at the time, and since it happened to be the periodic check-up day for the seal, she was unable to go.
"of course."
Mikoto nodded.
The name Sasuke is a good fit for a boy. If the baby in her womb is a girl, she will probably be named Sako.
Mikoto had a feeling that Kiyoshi would name her that way.
"Sasuke..."
Sarutobi Biwako's face showed little emotion; she was a rigid woman.
Her husband, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was the father of Sarutobi Sasuke.
The name Uchiha Sasuke happens to be the same as Sarutobi Sasuke.
However, Sasuke is a name used by many people in the ninja world, so it's not a particularly rare combination.
So Sarutobi Biwako didn't think much of it.
"Kushina...you'd better think of a name a while in advance."
Mikoto's gaze couldn't help but fall on Kushina's abdomen.
Even without activating her Sharingan, Mikoto possesses exceptional insight in her normal state.
Kushina's slightly protruding belly was extremely conspicuous in her eyes.
Kushina... is about to give birth too.
Mikoto deduced this period based on a ninja's instinct for intelligence analysis.
Other ninjas might not be able to tell, but Mikoto saw it at a glance.
Regardless, she was a Jonin of the Uchiha clan who participated in the Third Shinobi World War and awakened the legendary "Mangekyou Sharingan".
"As for the name, I've already thought of one."
Kushina watched as those tiny nostrils fluttered gently with each breath, and a feeling of anticipation welled up inside her.
Almost subconsciously, she spoke to Mikoto in a tone tinged with secret and anticipation:
"I've already thought of a name for my child... Naruto. Maybe they'll become good friends, go to school together, and even be in the same class."
Mikoto smiled slightly.
Kushina mentioned this before.
Just then, Kushina tugged at Mikoto's sleeve, lowered her voice, and asked the question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time:
"Um... is it really... very painful?"
Mikoto was taken aback at first, then noticed the rare timidity in Kushina's usually vibrant blue eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"So even the fearless Kushina is worried about this?"
"Of course, it's not like I'm really fearless."
Kushina spoke up.
The two women stood there and started chatting.
Sarutobi Biwako, who was waiting behind, called out to Kushina when the time was right.
The current Hokage is Uchiha Kiyoshi, but the secret of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's impending birth needs to be kept from everyone except the higher-ups and relevant personnel.
Otherwise, it would be easy for malicious individuals to take advantage of the weakening of the Tailed Beast seal and cause trouble for Konoha.
"Kushina, we should go, time is of the essence."
Sarutobi Biwako Road.
"okay."
Kushina snapped out of her daze and hurriedly waved to Mikoto, "See you next time, Mikoto!"
Mikoto, holding Sasuke, stood there, watching the red-haired figure walk further and further away from the deserted street corner until it finally disappeared.
Mikoto's gentle smile slowly faded.
She was wondering whose child Kushina was carrying.
After a long while, Itachi raised his head and looked at his mother, saying:
"Is something bothering you, Mother?"
"nothing."
Mikoto shook her head.
What does a little kid like a weasel know?
Although he is very intelligent, he is still too young.
……
“You shouldn’t have stopped, and you definitely shouldn’t have talked to her.”
