Chapter 27 My name is Yakushi Nono, and I am the assistant of Biwako Sarutobi.

"Yesterday was June 18th, the Pure Land Tomb Sweeping Day."

Early in the morning, Uzumaki Kushina opened her eyes and stared blankly at the ceiling. After a few seconds, she couldn't help but recall.

"He went to the cemetery just as predicted. However, I peeked at him from a distance and there seemed to be no one else around him. Whose voice was that?"

"And..will he come and tell me?"

"If he doesn't come, I won't make breakfast for him anymore."

"But why is he still like that? He clearly considers me a friend, but he still keeps a little distance from me?"

"Ugh~~~ That's disgusting~~ Ouch!"

On the bed, Uzumaki Kushina rolled around anxiously under the quilt, and heard a thump, her head actually hit something hard.
"What the hell, asshole?"

Uzumaki Kushina rubbed her head and reached out to touch the left side of the pillow.
"What's this?"

"A circular slice of wood?"

"There seems to be some text on it?"
-
Dividing line

"Uh huh huh~~"

"The little princess seems to be in a good mood today."

In the courtyard, the old ladies were sweeping up fallen leaves. Seeing Uzumaki Kushina walking around and humming a tune, they waved at her with a smile.

"Since the little princess became interested in cooking, she has been in a better mood than before. She used to be a little like us."

"Hey"

An old woman sighed and said nothing. She couldn't say anything. After all, restricting the little princess's personal freedom was, in a sense, a way of protecting her.
"Good morning, grandma."

"Well, morning."

As usual, Uzumaki Mito sat on the wooden platform under the eaves. She spent every day like this. Sometimes, she sat here for the whole day.

This scene made Uzumaki Kushina slightly restrain her smile. The reason was very simple. Although her Kagura's mind eye could only randomly capture fragments of the future, it also had some basic functions. For example, she could actually feel that her grandmother's health had been declining rapidly since Rope Tree died.
"Grandma, did you have breakfast this morning?"

"Uh-huh."

Uzumaki Mito shook his head.

"I'm not really hungry, but I did drink some tea. You didn't make breakfast for Sanye today."

"I wanted to do it, but grandma said that Mitsuha went to the training ground early."

As she spoke, Uzumaki Kushina sat down next to Uzumaki Mito, holding her old and mottled hand, and watched with her the frightened deer made of wood not far away, which was filled with water and then poured out.
"Grandma, the deer seems to be breaking down."

"It's just a little worn out. This was made by Hashirama using Wood Release. It won't break that easily."

"Mito-sama."

Suddenly, an old woman came from a corridor on one side, followed by two women, one big and one small, wearing ninja uniforms of Konoha Medical Department.

"The head of the medical department, Sarutobi Biwako-sama said to come and examine you."

"Mito-sama, excuse me for interrupting you."

Sarutobi Biwako, who was over 40 years old, walked up to Uzumaki Mito, bent his waist, and knelt beside her.

"Ah, Biwako, I haven't seen you in a while."

Uzumaki Mito turned around and said with a smile.

"It's my fault. I should have come to see you more often. However, there are too many wounded soldiers sent back from the front line. Recently, the main force of the Rain Ninja seems to have shifted to the Sand Ninja. I am relieved here, so Hiruzen asked me to come over and check your body."

"Haha, thank you for your help."

"This is Kushina, she's grown so big now."

"Meet Mr. Biwako"

"You're welcome. Well, then, Master Mito, I'm sorry."

As he spoke, Sarutobi Biwako looked at the girl next to him, who was about the same size as Uzumaki Kushina and had long light blonde hair.

"Nono, turn on the instrument." "Yes, Master Biwako."

The girl who was also kneeling there hurriedly placed a metal box on her back on the wooden floor, opened it in half, turned the button at the bottom while looking at the glowing screen on the upper side, and finally pulled out a handful of densely packed patches from the side.

"I'll help too."

Uzumaki Kushina also came over. Because of Tsunade, she also knew some medical ninjutsu. Although she was not very proficient, she was enough to help. Work like sticking detection patches on the body was not difficult for her at all.

"That would be troublesome."

The girl looked at Sarutobi Biwako and found that she did not refuse, so she nodded to Uzumaki Kushina and handed half of the patch to Uzumaki Kushina.

"Eh?"

However, at the moment when their hands touched, Uzumaki Kushina was stunned.
In the sunshine, the blond boy walks through the crowd
And 'I' secretly stared at him for a few times.
Until he disappeared in the crowd.
Bang~bang~
"Whoo~~~"

A long sigh of relief
Only then did 'myself' slowly withdraw his gaze.
"Oho?"

Looking at the girl in front of her, Uzumaki Kushina couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth. If she was not mistaken, the blond boy was the annoying Namikaze Minato, and the "herself" was the girl in front of her.
"What's your name."

"My name is... Yakushi Nono, and I am the assistant of Biwako Sarutobi."

"Oh~~~"

Uzumaki Kushina nodded.
"Mister Mito, your health is not very optimistic, but it is not serious."

After waiting quietly for a while, Sarutobi Biwako signaled Yakushi Nonou to take off all the patches on Uzumaki Mito, and then spoke.

"Hehe, I feel the same way myself. I get tired easily lately. But as long as I don't use chakra, I'm fine."

"I will prescribe some nourishing medicine for you. You must take it on time."

"Yeah, don't worry. At least I will take my medicine on time until this war is over."

"."

Sarutobi Biwako shook his head.

"Oh, by the way, when we got here, Hiruzen told me something about Kushina."

"What's wrong with me?"

"It's like this. Wasn't yesterday the day for tomb sweeping? Considering that many people have died in the war, Hiruzen said that he is planning to hold a three-day summer festival in the commercial district. If you want to go, you can go and have some fun. Of course, you must be accompanied by a guardian ninja."

"Really?"

"Ha, of course it's true."

Sarutobi Biwako reached out and rubbed Uzumaki Kushina's head.

"Don't blame Hiruzen. After all, your identity is too sensitive and special. You are the hope for Konoha's future."

"Yes, I understand. But, Master Biwako, can I bring my friend with me?"

"That depends on who he is."

"Three leaves!"

"He, unfortunately, can't."

"Why!"

“That’s the second thing I want to say.”

As he spoke, Sarutobi Biwako took out a scroll from his arms and handed it to Uzumaki Mito.

"Mister Mito, please don't be angry after reading this."

"Oh, I don't want to watch it. You better tell me, Tsunade-chan. What happened to her?"

"Is such that."

Sarutobi Biwako looked embarrassed.

"She lost two million ryo in the casino in Tansho Street, but she ran away without waiting for the money, using the excuse that there was a war on the front line. Then the three bosses came to Konoha and cried in Hiruzen's office."
