When I first arrived in Hokage, Kaguya Ji insisted on forcing me to make a choice

And with Jiraiya's previous account of the Uzumaki clan's origins,

Jiraiya also focused on telling Nagato the relationship between the Uzumaki clan and Konoha.

He also said that what Nagato saw that the so-called Konoha ninja killed his parents was probably just his illusion.

The Konoha forehead protector I saw might be an illusion or a disguise for ninjas from other countries.

Because the ninjas of Konoha will never kill members of the Uzumaki clan.

And if there is really a discovery, then Konoha will never forgive or tolerate it.

In the end, thanks to Jiraiya's superb speaking talent,

It also made Nagato gradually let go of his grudge against Konoha.

And after meeting Kushina, the feeling of intimacy that comes from the same clan and blood,

It made him completely believe what Jiraiya said.

"Is this the little brother Jiraiya-sensei said was left behind in the outer Uzumaki clan?"

At that time, Kushina followed Namikaze Minato to greet Jiraiya and others.

Both of them had recently returned from their respective battlefields.

And their impressive military exploits on the battlefield were enough to keep them from participating in missions for quite some time.

Ushered in a rare leisure and relaxation time.

At this time, after seeing what Jiraiya said in his letter, he discovered another orphan of the Uzumaki clan.

Naturally, Minato Namikaze came with him.

"What a cute kid."

Kushina looked at the hair color that was the same as her own, and raised the corners of her mouth,

I couldn't help but touch Nagato's head as soon as he came up.

Nagato was only eight years old at this time, and his body was far from mature.

But Kushina is already fourteen or fifteen years old, which is the peak period of growth for girls.

He was a head taller than Nagato.

Nagato, who was caught off guard and touched his head by Kushina, couldn't help but look stunned.

Then her cheeks turned slightly red, but it was covered by her long bangs.

No one can tell.

"What a lovely little sister. Come on, call me sister."

Kushina couldn't help but squat down, and then said to Nagato.

This time Nagato was even more at a loss.

His cheeks were reddened, and he wanted to say something, but due to his introverted personality, he didn't say anything.

But he was not angry. When he saw his tribe for the first time, he was attracted by the strange feeling coming from his bloodline.

I don't feel disgusted or disgusted by calling her sister, I just feel a little embarrassed.

More importantly...he is not my sister...

"Pfft...sister...sister?"

On the other hand, Yahiko on the side couldn't help it any longer. He covered his mouth hard and suppressed a smile.

"Not to mention, Nagato really looks like my sister!"

Xiao Nan nodded affirmatively.

It was true that Nagato's bangs were too long and covered his eyes, and his young face was too delicate.

She looks very much like a delicate and lovely sister.

"Ah...did I say something wrong?"

Seeing the reactions of Nagato's two companions, Kushina also realized that something was not right.

He scratched his head in confusion.

"I think that should be a younger brother."

Minato stood aside, raised his standard sunny smile, and said softly.

"Ah...he is so cute and has a younger brother..."

Kushina glanced at Minato in surprise, then turned her head and observed Nagato carefully for a while.

Embarrassed, Nagato punched him fiercely.

"It seems to be true! My sister didn't look carefully...Brother, don't be angry..."

Kushina apologized, but did not let go of her hand, and then touched his head.

Kushina still has a good impression of this clan brother.

After all, they belong to the same clan, and in this main world, there are too few members of the Uzumaki clan still existing.

More importantly, Kushina sympathized with Nagato's plight.

In Jiraiya's letter, she had already been informed of some of Nagato's situation.

And calculated based on the population that went to the other world and was resurrected,

The Uzumaki clan neither died in the war nor fled to Konoha.

But the population lost in other areas of the ninja world can also be roughly estimated.

Combined with Nagato's age, Kushina already has a candidate for Nagato's mother.

"What a cute little brother... If I guessed correctly... your mother's name should be Uzumaki Fuso..."

Touching Nagato's head again, Uzumaki Kushina continued.

"You...how do you know..."

Nagato was a little stunned. Suddenly hearing this name awakened Nagato's already somewhat vague memory.

"You...you know my mother?"

Nagato asked. Before Kushina could answer, Nagato lowered his head again, looking lonely.

"My mother never told me her last name, but her name is indeed Fuso..."

"This is it..."

Kushina murmured, lowering her head and pondering for a moment.

"The Uzumaki clan was besieged by all the major powers, and your mother fled. The reason why she didn't mention her last name to you was actually to protect you."

"If her surname is exposed, it will surely attract attacks from various countries again."

Kushina said, with a rare solemn expression.

"So that's how it is..."

Nagato murmured.

At this moment, he thought of a lot. No wonder his mother never wanted to mention things about her mother's clan to him.

He almost never told her his last name.

"I didn't expect that Aunt Fusang would flee to the Land of Rain when she was pregnant."

"And in the end... still in trouble..."

Speaking of this, Kushina's expression was also full of sadness,

If based on seniority, Nagato's mother is still her cousin, so it is reasonable for Nagato to call her sister.

If it was only destroyed in that war, it could still be saved by the Emperor of Heaven.

But now, he died many years later.

There is no way around this...it can only be said to be a personal creation.

"Don't be afraid, brother...sister will take care of you from now on... Speaking of which, you have to call me cousin..."

Kushina said, raising the corners of her mouth and smiling brightly.

"Cousin... Cousin..."

Nagato murmured.

"Oh, you're so good!"

Kushina touched Nagato's head again.

"Don't worry, sister will avenge your parents, if those ninjas you mentioned are caught by me."

"it is good."

Nagato nodded, closing his eyes slightly, enjoying Kushina's touch.

At this moment, he felt a long-lost warmth in his heart.

That is different from the emotion between Yahiko and Konan.

Although he and Yahiko Xiaonan have been getting along for many years, they have become like a new family.

But facing Kushina,

But there is more of a mother-like... warmth.

After all, they are of the same race, which is something that neither Konan nor Yahiko can give.

"How about it, Nagato, the teacher didn't lie to you, the Uzumaki clan and Konoha have been close neighbors since ancient times. So now, do you want to choose to join the village where the teacher is?"

Jiraiya, who had been listening quietly next to him, finally asked.

Whether the plan to abduct children or not will succeed depends on the present day!

Nagato hesitated and looked at Kushina.

"Don't care about my opinion, just follow your inner choice. Even if you don't choose Konoha, my sister will treat you as a family member."

Kushina gave Nagato an encouraging look.

Nagato turned his head again and looked at Yahiko and Konan.

The three of them have already experienced so much, and they must be together no matter what.

Naturally, we cannot ignore their opinions.

"Of course I have no problem! Nagato, the Konoha clan has the great Emperor of Heaven, and the three bloodlines passed down by him are Senju, Uchiha, and Hinata! It's incredible to think about it! What a great village this is! It is simply that I have received extra favor from the Emperor of Heaven! No wonder Konoha has been victorious in all the wars over the years!"

Yahiko spoke first, grinning and expressing his point of view.

There is recognition and belonging to Konoha in his eyes.

The source of everything comes from belief in a supreme being.

That's an ancient chapter of history.

"My opinion is the same as Yahiko's. No matter what, the three of us will always be together. Wherever you go, we will go."

Xiaonan also said.

"Jiraiya-sensei, we are willing to join Konoha!"
