"Shhhh Whew..."

In the room of the hot spring inn, the water gate is slightly spitting.

Honestly, after he calmed down a bit...

Watergate suddenly found that things seemed to be bigger than he thought!

Whether it was these two who almost broke into the Sand Hidden Village, or captured the tailed beast of the Land of Wind... These are extremely important events in a national sense!

In contrast, an S-class renegade red sand scorpion... It's really not a big surprise.

Yes... A little upset in my stomach...

Obito also handed over a cup of freshly brewed hot tea at the right time, and said tentatively:

"Teacher... Drink tea? ”

“... Well, thanks. ”

To be honest, Obito has almost never seen Mr. Mizuto show such an expression...

Look... Like a stomach ache?

The blue-striped tanuki looked left and right, and suddenly raised his eyebrows.

"Hey? The Wind Shadow was beaten half to death, and he invited Uncle Ben over, what are you sighing about, Hokage? ”

"Shouldn't you be happy?"

As he spoke, the blue-striped tanuki seemed to have an understanding, and the cat's face changed.

Suddenly shouted at Seiichi:

"Boy, I'm afraid this guy is a traitor to your village! Take it for him! ”

"Dang!"

The lid of the black cauldron suddenly seemed to be struck by a sledgehammer, making an extremely rippling echo.

Cheng Yi glanced at the guy who didn't think it was a big deal: "You stop a little." ”

Shouhe's eyes were full of stars, and after shaking his head with bared teeth for a while, it was a momentum roar that wanted to fight with Seiichi.

"Ahhh!!hhh Boy, how dare you beat Uncle Ben?! Believe it or not, I regret it! ”

Seiichi said angrily: "Don't say it as if you gave me charity, it's because we have an agreement that we need to discuss with Hokage-sama like this, do you know?" ”

"Hmph..."

Hearing this, the blue-striped tanuki seemed to understand why this kid had to specially invite Konoha's Hokage to go out of the village.

I'm afraid it's because the agreement between them at the beginning has exceeded their authority.

This includes allowing it to observe everything that is happening outside in its half-baked sealed state.

Therefore, although Shouhe was still angry, he held back and did not continue to attack.

Watergate also seemed to hear a new stomach pain wound, and his expression was extremely helpless:

"May I ask, what kind of agreement have you made between the two of you and Shouhe?"

Speaking of this, Seiichi restrained himself and said with a serious expression:

"Lord Watergate, you should know the relationship between ordinary human pillar forces and tailed beasts, right?"

Watergate nodded: "Although this matter is still classified, I think you, a jack of all trades, should have known about it a long time ago... Kusina is the current nine-tailed pillar force of Konoha man, so I am also very aware of the pain of being a tailed orc pillar force. ”

"Huh? The Nine-Tails guy was also caught in the stomach? Still there? ”

Shouhe, who was still angry, suddenly had a pleasure.

First I heard that Raksha's dog was about to be half-cooked, and then I heard that the stinky fart guy of the Nine-Tails was also caught in the human stomach.

What day is it? So much good news?

"Don't interrupt yet..."

Seiichi gently tapped the lid on Shouhe's head a little helplessly.

This guy... I didn't have this impression before, why is my mouth so broken.

Even Obito knows that he can't interrupt when talking about business, he is good, just like he is energetic.

"Huh..."

Shouhe originally wanted to praise this group of Konoha ninjas, but they were actually treated like this?

It sneered, and immediately retracted its head into the black tea cauldron, as if it had a little temper.

Seiichi didn't have time to pay attention to it for the time being, and continued:

"Therefore, Lord Watergate, you should also know that the relationship between the human pillar force and the tailed beast is getting worse and worse, and the more pain both the human pillar force and the tailed beast will suffer."

Speaking of this, Seiichi's voice was slightly low.

"Even after the two sides have been together for too long, because of the assimilation effect of Chakra, if they can't understand each other all the time... Eventually, it could turn into a situation where both sides are at a standout..."

"According to the experience of human pillar force in the past, our eyes are often only focused on human beings, and we feel that the stronger the chakra of our own individual, the higher the probability of becoming a stable human pillar force."

"But I want to... There is an even more critical factor in this. ”

"That is, whether the tailed beast recognizes the human pillar force itself."

Chengyi's explanation of the relationship between the tailed beast and the human pillar force made Deshuimen ponder slightly.

It means that the relationship between the human pillar force and the tailed beast is not unilateral suppression, but mutual recognition?

He raised his head to look at Seiichi beside him and asked, "Are you... Lessons learned from Rin and Mio? ”

"Isofu."

Watergate was slightly stunned.

"Huh? What? ”

Chengyi replied in a deep voice: "The tailed beast in Lin's belly is called Jifu, Lord Watergate. ”

"They're not just one, three, or nine-tailed, they have their own names."

Cheng said in one mouth, so that Deshui Gate raised his hand slightly as if holding his mouth and nose.

If so...

The reason why Rin was able to maintain stability when her own chakra was not enough was because of the relationship with Mio... Why can I get along well with Isofu?

Even the other party has taken the initiative to tell them his name, and even the way to get along with the tailed beast?

Don't... All along, the relationship between humans and tailed beasts has been misunderstood?

People treat them as natural disasters, as weapons... Even Mizumon has seen the pain of Kushina being eroded by the Nine-Tails Chakra several times...

Although he didn't hold a grudge against these tailed beasts, it was difficult for him to see them as friends.

However... Whether it's Rin, whose chakra reserves are not enough to make him a stable human pillar force, or Shouhe, who doesn't seem to have a very good attitude at the moment, but is actually able to communicate amicably...

All of them made this fourth-generation Hokage, who had always had a good understanding, begin to think deeply about the rights and wrongs.

Seiichi also continued:

"If you want the tailed beast to recognize you, of course, people have to recognize the tailed beast first, just like getting along with friends, how can you only use a nickname and not even tell each other your name?"

"Huh?!"

Suddenly, the blue-striped tanuki popped up its head again, and said very puzzled:

"Isofu, that stuffy calf is also in your Konoha? Isn't it supposed to be on the other side of the sea? ”

Seiichi looked helpless: "... I'll tell you about these things later. ”

"Boy, are you disrespecting Uncle Ben more and more?"

Shouhe's face also stinks, and this kid is becoming more and more perfunctory to himself.

"After all, you guys talk nicely, but you didn't tell me your name?"

Oh, feelings, you're playing tsundere...

Seiichi knows it in his heart.

Hiss... Speaking of which, is there so much of the tsundere in this Naruto world?

He leaned down so that his gaze was level with that of Shouzuru.

Just as he had when he jumped on the bridge of Shouhe's nose and controlled it with that kaleidoscope writing wheel.

It's just that this time he said softly:

"My name is Seiichi Uchiha, and I was on a mission in the shadows, so of course I can't reveal my name to the enemy country, and..."

"Hello, Shouzuru."

"Hmph... It's late! ”

The blue-striped tanuki twisted its face, and then, as if its old face made of sand was a little shy, it swooped and hid in the jar again.

Seiichi looked sideways at Watergate and grinned: "Look at Lord Watergate, they're actually quite easy to handle." ”

Seeing this, Shuimen also sighed slightly: "Maybe that's the case." ”

Rumors from earlier days have it that the Sand Keeper is one of the most grumpy tailed beasts.

At first sight... Maybe it's true that humans never intended to know about them.

Similarly, this is probably the reason why Yunyin Village has the so-called 'Perfect Human Pillar Force'.

Whether it is a human pillar force or a tailed beast, the existence of such a movement that causes a landslide and a ground crack will make people feel afraid, and then alienate from bullying, and even hostile.

But they... Actually, it's not that terrible.

It's like... Kusina like that.

It's just that now in this ranks, Watergate is also slowly trying to include the tailed beast in it.

Seiichi also went on to explain:

"That's why I made a pact with Obito and Shouzuru..."

"It's not for humans to choose who to use as a human pillar to 'seal' the tailed beast, but for Shouhe... Let the tailed beasts themselves choose the people they approve of as their companions. ”

"The quid pro quo is that when there is no one to support the pillar, Shouhe must remain stable and not act recklessly."

Finally, without the interruption of Shouzuru, Seiichi finished the agreement between them.

"That's why we're keeping it the way it is."

And Shuimen also opened his mouth slightly after hearing this, a little surprised.

It's not about letting people choose who becomes the human pillar... Rather, let the Tailed Beasts choose who they approve of?

It's... It's a good idea.

After all, if it was an existence personally selected by the tailed beast, then naturally there would be no endless see-saw with the Nine-Tails like Kushina.

In this case, even an individual like Rin, who does not have enough chakra reserves, will not run amok at will because of the approval of the tailed beast itself.

Watergate groaned slightly.

"What you say makes sense, Cheng Yijun."

"But we may have to discuss this matter a little bit... After all, if the tailed beasts are in a bad mood... If something happens in the village, then it's a big problem. ”

"Hahahaha, you Hokage is very sensible! Yes, yes, if you dare to bring Uncle Ben into the village casually, I will kill you at every opportunity! ”

The blue-striped raccoon cat, which looked like a gopher, appeared again, laughing wildly in its mouth, which can be said to be a vivid performance of the word madness.

"Dang!"

"You're almost done... Do you have to mess things up to be satisfied? ”

Shouhe was hammered again, and he didn't say anything this time, but he just stared at this disrespectful boy, grinning as if he was going to bite this little dog.

Seeing such a scene, Watergate suddenly felt a little stomach ache again.

"That's it... So you two will stay here for a few days for the time being, and I'll discuss with the others about the placement of Shouhe. ”

"Why are you so troublesome, you sissy! Or just this kid! ”

Shouhe is also crazy and boundless, and he scolds when he opens his mouth.

"Put me in his belly! Let me have a with him! ”

Seiichi is also suddenly happy: "Yo? What, you've got a crush on me? ”

"Huh, let's try? I don't have that eye to stare at me and see if I don't eat you kid! ”

...

Well... My stomach hurts...

Watergate slowly got up.

"Alright... This matter is arranged for the time being, and I will arrange someone to receive the Red Sand Scorpion later today, you two... Think of it as a holiday. ”

He smiled slightly:

"The hot springs here are not bad, huh? It's quite popular in the Konoha area. ”

After saying that, he patted the gray-faced young duo on the shoulder again, and he hurried back to the Hokage's office with Flying Thor.

It's been a little bit since I've been away... If someone thinks that the Hokage is missing during this time, it will be troublesome.

However, the water gate didn't have time to lock on the sigil.

"Ah, by the way, Lord Watergate, I have one more thing here that I want your approval."

Shuimen closed his eyes slightly, and his brows trembled slightly.

And also???

Don't have it...

My stomach hurts... I really want to go to the hospital to prescribe some stomach medicine first.
