Chapter 211 Pregnant Kushina
It has been 50 years since the end of the war in Konoha, and the development of Konoha Village is booming.
The number of people in the village has increased a lot. In order to meet the increasing number of settlement applications, Konoha has even launched an expansion plan, preparing to add two residential areas and three training grounds on the original basis.
Therefore, the barrier also needs to be modified, but the leader of the barrier class, Kushina Uzumaki, has a small problem, so the barrier modification has been postponed. However,
after the war, except for some places that are not very safe, the territory of the Land of Fire and even Konoha Village is very safe. It doesn't matter if the barrier is relaxed for a while, and the security guards in the village can still guarantee it.
In the Konoha hospital, Kushina was waiting for the test results with anticipation. Although she had come several times, every time she touched her growing abdomen, she could feel the strong life inside.
"Kushina, Jonin."
The door was suddenly pushed open, and pharmacist Nono, dressed in white, walked in with a medical report, then pushed his glasses expressionlessly, and continued to say to Kushina,
"The fetus is very healthy and is expected to be born next month. However, given your identity, I have reported the matter to the Hokage, and the medical team and Anbu should be sent to your home at that time."
Kushina was still smiling when she heard the first half of the words, but when she heard that so many people were going to live in her house, she was a little reluctant: "We don't need so many people, we still have Sister Tsunade."
"Teacher Tsunade?"
Pharmacist Nono sighed lightly. Although he was a student of Teacher Tsunade, Nono was not sure who would take care of whom after Tsunade moved into Kushina's house because of Tsunade's personality. However, Tsunade was indeed the best choice to deliver the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's child. She alone was worth a medical team.
"Anyway, let's leave this matter to the Hokage to decide. After all, your identity means that giving birth is not a trivial matter."
After hearing this, Kushina nodded in distress, but she couldn't help but feel happy again when she thought about the birth of her child. Then she remembered some of the things that Yakushi Nono had told her, and left Konoha Hospital after thanking him.
After Kushina left, Yakushi Nono could no longer keep the calm expression on his face. He touched his smooth belly and felt a little indignant. It was almost the same time, why did Kushina get pregnant but she didn't? Could it be related to the order? The Anbu in
the Hokage's office
sent a special report on the delivery of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. The Jinchuriki would cause violent resistance from the tailed beasts during delivery. Although Kushina had always said that the Nine-Tails would not make trouble, Konoha could not make no preparations.
After seeing this information, Orochimaru thought for a while, and then said to Hyuga Hiashi who was standing beside him: "Hiashi, the security matters still depend on the Byakugan."
"This is the duty of the Hyuga clan, Hokage-sama."
Hyuga Hiashi said. He also knew that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was about to give birth. Since the Third Ninja World War, Kushina's identity was no longer a secret among the Konoha ninjas. Moreover, Kushina usually liked to go shopping and buy groceries, and her growing belly could not be hidden from others. Now, maybe even other ninja villages have received this news.
However, what Kushina didn't know was that Orochimaru sent two Anbu teams to protect Kushina in secret. If Kushina planned to leave the village, the manpower would be doubled. However, Kushina also knew the importance of pregnancy after she became pregnant. Except for some matters of the sealing class and the barrier class in the early stage, she rarely ran around at other times.
"Hokage, since Kushina is about to give birth, for safety reasons, we should conduct an operation to eliminate spies in the village. The list of suspects reported by the security team needs a lot of manpower to monitor."
Hinata Hiashi continued to suggest that after Konoha's expansion, many people came, and there must be spies among them, but the security team has no evidence at present, otherwise there would be no need to waste manpower to monitor secretly.
Orochimaru nodded and said, "Let's do it. Anyone with suspicious behavior, please leave Konoha Village; Shisui, notify Yashiro-kun that the security team will patrol near Uzumaki Kushina's residence, and you don't have to stay by my side, lead your team to join the team to protect Kushina." Anyway,
there are only shadow clones in the Hokage's office, and Uchiha Shisui is responsible for more things like a messenger.
As soon as Orochimaru finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in the room, half-knelt on the ground and said, "As you command, Hokage."
What a fast instant body technique! Hinata Hiashi sighed in his heart. No matter how many times he saw it, it was difficult for him to detect Uchiha Shisui's instant body; and the Hokage actually trusted the Uchiha clan so much that he let the guard team get involved in protecting the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki
. "There is one more thing, Hokage."
After Uchiha Shisui left, Hinata Hiashi frowned slightly and finished reading the information scroll sent back by the Anbu in his hand. After thinking for a while, he still said it out,
"The traitor Jiraiya appeared in the Land of Hot Springs ten days ago, but the Jonin Namikaze Minato deliberately avoided this place. The Anbu clearly gave him the intelligence of the investigation in advance."
"Master-disciple relationship? I can understand it, otherwise Minato Namikaze would have terminated the summoning contract with Myoboku Mountain immediately. Forget it, just assign him a few more S-level missions."
Orochimaru laughed. He just unloaded all the efforts of the Sarutobi clan and did not attack the former Hokage Sarutobi. However, this alone was enough to make Sarutobi, who had been resting at home for a long time, heartbroken.
"I understand, Hokage-sama." Hinata Hiashi nodded in understanding, and then found a task from the confidential missions to lurk in the Kumo Village and investigate the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, and prepared to let the Anbu hand it over to Minato Namikaze.
It is only natural for the new interest group to suppress the old interest group. After all, for the same B-level mission, guarding the border takes more than half a year to a year, while the escort mission only takes more than a month, and you may even be able to take a nice bath in the middle. As
the assistant of the Hokage and the head of the clan, Hinata Hiashi naturally understands these things; the three clans of Ino, Deer and Chou are not so bad, they are just a little bit hard and tired, but the Sarutobi clan.
It only takes a period of training to switch from a combat position to a civilian position, but the price of life may be paid from switching from a civilian position to a combat position.
This is power. No wonder Sarutobi teacher always holds power in his hands. Orochimaru sighed a little in his heart. Although he also likes power a little, he has more important pursuits.
Jiraiya has defected from the village since the Fourth Hokage took over. The bounty list has been sent to various ninja villages by Konoha, but he is quite powerful, so no one except Kakuzu has tried.
Even Kakuzu gave up this goal after fighting with Jiraiya once; although 70 million taels was very tempting to him, if he couldn't get it, he might as well take more debt collection business from Kahn Casino.
After a while, Hyuga Hiashi continued to handle the affairs. Now most of the things in the village are handled by him, but Hyuga Hiashi also knows that his chances of becoming Hokage are not great. The next Hokage is most likely to be Rope Tree who controls the Wood Release Bloodline.
And Hyuga Hiashi didn't have too much ambition. He just didn't want the Hyuga clan to be surpassed by the Uchiha clan; recently, the power of the Uchiha clan in the village has expanded too fast, and he must be the Hokage to assist them.
In addition to the battlefield in the Water Country slowly calming down, and there are new changes in the Cloud Village that need to be discussed with the Fourth Hokage, Hyuga Hiashi handled the rest of the things himself.
After leaving Konoha Hospital, Kushina went shopping in the commercial street with Uchiha Mikoto. When it was almost dark, they bought some vegetables and prepared to go home.
Although she was about to give birth, the strong physique of the Uzumaki clan allowed Kushina to move like an ordinary person, and even climb walls and fly over roofs.
After returning to her and Kahn's residence, the Anbu personnel could not follow them in; there was not only a barrier here, but also a perception that could isolate the Anbu, so they could only guard outside.
In addition, there was Princess Tsunade, one of the three ninjas, inside, so there should be no problem with safety.
"Sister Tsunade, I'm back."
Kushina shouted after returning home, and then after more than ten seconds, she suddenly felt a little strange, "Are you not at home?"
In the past, when she came back, she could hear Tsunade shouting "I'm starving", but today it was very quiet.
After Kushina put the vegetables in the kitchen and came to the living room, she found that Tsunade was sitting at the round table with a reserved look as if she had made a mistake and was caught. When she saw Kushina come in, she smiled awkwardly.
"What? Why didn't you answer if you were here, Tsunade-san?"
"Because she's reflecting on herself. She came here to take care of people, but ended up being the one being taken care of."
Kushina suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her. Her face instantly changed to surprise as she turned around and then hugged Kahn behind her.
"Don't get too excited. Be careful of the child, Kushina."
Kahn didn't dare to pick up Kushina with much force, and then touched her fiery red hair. He was also a little surprised when he heard the news. He didn't expect that after leaving here for a while, he would come back with a descendant.
If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Naruto Punt, or Uzumaki Naruto. If he really calls him by Punt's last name, I'm afraid that almost no one in the ninja world is used to putting the last name at the end.
Kushina snuggled in Kahn's arms with a satisfied look on her face, rubbing her head against his. She asked, "Did you just come back?"
"Yeah, almost. I gained a lot this time. I'll tell you where you're going later. Tsunade, have you reflected enough?"
Tsunade, who had just wanted to get up and slip away, was discovered and sat back down awkwardly, but still said in a low voice, "I wanted to prepare dinner for you."
She also knew that she was in the wrong. She was used to being taken care of by Kushina, and today she was caught by Kahn. Moreover, the other party was her biggest creditor, so Tsunade had to pretend to be honest.
