On the way ahead, Minato and the others didn't stop again. After leaving the Land of Grass, they headed towards the Konoha camp.
"They're back."
Kawaki had already sensed the Flying Thunder God marks on the two young ones in Sakumo's house.
The somewhat serious expression on his face instantly turned into a smile.
"It's great that they're back."
"Let's go and welcome the heroes."
After Tsunade said that, she stood up and tidied up the wrinkles on her skirt from sitting.
"Okay, let's go."
Sakumo also stood up. The two young ones deserved this treatment, regardless of their status.
This was the honor they had earned for themselves.
"They're going to be so proud."
Kawaki joked and then walked out of the door.
Dai and Shinryu Yūhi also followed with smiles, forming a luxurious welcoming team.
Minato and the others didn't know the situation here. When they were about to reach the camp, Nawaki put Misaki down.
"Let's just walk over. It's not far."
Nawaki was worried that it wouldn't look good if Kawaki and Tsunade saw them like this.
"I'm fine either way."
Misaki stood beside Nawaki prettily and obediently.
"Alright, let's go."
Minato could guess Nawaki's thoughts clearly. Seeing that he was about to explain something more, he directly interrupted him.
So what if they see? Isn't the teacher bolder than you?
"Then let's go."
Nawaki scratched his head embarrassedly, and everyone slowed down and walked towards the camp.
From afar, they could see someone greeting them at the camp entrance.
"It's Lord Tsunade and the others."
The radar user had already recognized the faces of several people and was quite excited.
This was also an unparalleled honor for them.
"Definitely, Brother-in-law sensed that we're back."
Nawaki's mind was still working well at this moment, and his joy was obvious.
"Which one is your Brother-in-law?"
Misaki stretched her head forward, but unfortunately, her eyesight was not good enough.
She hadn't awakened the Mind's Eye of the Kagura[b]Mind's Eye of the Kagura[/b] of the Uzumaki Clan either, so she could only vaguely see five people standing there.
Along the way, she had heard Nawaki praise Kawaki highly. How he was highly skilled, wealthy, and treated him like a real younger brother...
It successfully piqued her curiosity. Instead, Nawaki didn't describe Tsunade in detail, just a few words.
"The one standing beside the woman."
Although Nawaki couldn't see clearly either, it didn't prevent him from knowing about Kawaki. Brother-in-law must be standing beside Sister.
There was no doubt about this.
"Uh, I can't see."
Misaki tried to open her eyes wide, but still couldn't see. Her annoyed look was extremely cute.
"Haha, actually, I can't see either."
Nawaki laughed out loud looking at this cute girl.
"Then you're talking nonsense."
Misaki pouted and gently hit Nawaki's shoulder.
"You'll be able to see when we get there later."
Nawaki grinned foolishly and dodged slightly, but still got hit by Misaki.
Not long after, everyone came to the camp entrance.
"Welcome back, our heroes! Well-done on this mission!"
Tsunade stepped forward from beside Kawaki and spoke first.
"Sister (Teacher's wife)."
"Lord Tsunade."
Everyone greeted Tsunade, and the excitement on their faces was obvious.
"You all did an excellent job on this mission. I'll make a good record for all of you."
Tsunade promised on the spot that this would not only be a financial reward but also help with promotions.
"Thank you, Lord Tsunade."
...
At this time, Kawaki had noticed the red-haired girl behind Nawaki. She was nervously looking at them.
She tightly grabbed the corner of Nawaki's clothes with both hands.
"Is this kid going on a mission or picking up a wife?"
A question arose in Kawaki's mind.
"Alright, you guys can go back. You've worked hard this time."
Since Tsunade had said all the nice things, Kawaki told them to disperse.
After everyone left, Misaki caught everyone's attention because she was still standing behind Nawaki.
"Nawaki, who is this?"
Tsunade threw a questioning look at Nawaki.
She wasn't as calm as Kawaki. With only the two young ones left, she just asked directly.
"Ah, sis."
"Let me introduce her to you."
Nawaki nervously pulled Misaki to the front. When it really came to this moment, his language system started to get a bit confused.
He threw a pleading look at Minato.
Minato folded his arms and looked up at the sky.
He pretended not to see Nawaki and waited to see what would happen next. This wasn't the person he saved.
Nawaki saw Minato's attitude of staying out of it and could only continue speaking with a stiff upper lip.
All these so - called brothers are just liars!!
"Her name is Misaki Uzumaki. We saved her in the Land of Grass."
"Oh? From the Uzumaki Clan."
Tsunade looked at Misaki's hair color, which was the same as her grandma's, and already believed most of it.
"Shit, is this Karin's mom?"
Kawaki remained calm on the surface and didn't say a word.
But his heart was already in turmoil. He was sure that she was from the Uzumaki Clan in the Land of Grass.
"I won't cause you any trouble."
Misaki lowered her head and spoke timidly, with her hands clasped together and her fingers twitching.
Although Tsunade looked very beautiful, she didn't seem like a gentle woman at all.
The others were even more difficult to describe. There was the cold - faced Sakumo, the green - skinned freak Dai, and the serious - faced Shinryu.
Even Kawaki, whom Nawaki had always praised, was sizing her up.
Misaki couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy. She didn't want to be alone and wandering outside again.
Those unbearable days were what she feared.
"Sis, let's keep her. I've already thought it through."
"Send her to grandma. Kushina will have a playmate."
Nawaki nervously looked at Tsunade's face, afraid that his sister would say something he couldn't accept.
"Did I say anything?"
Tsunade frowned. Was she such a heartless person?
"Alright, I'll decide. Keep her."
Kawaki knew that this was a harmless girl and might even be a good candidate.
It would be a tragedy if she was bitten to death in the Land of Grass.
Karin was an excellent ninja in both medical skills and sensing abilities, and most of her genes were inherited from her mother.
So there was no reason for Misaki to have poor aptitude.
"Thank you, Brother - in - law."
Nawaki's face lit up with joy and he almost jumped up.
"You're the good guy."
"Go back."
Tsunade gave Kawaki a disdainful look and planned to go back to the house to ask Nawaki more questions.
Just carry out the mission. Why did you bring a girl back with you?
"Let's go."
Nawaki had already calmed down. He casually greeted Misaki to enter the camp with him.
"Okay~"
Misaki followed Nawaki into the camp. She was in no mood to look around, not knowing what would happen next.
After all, she still felt insecure.
"Don't worry. My brother-in-law's words carry weight."
Nawaki boldly took Misaki's hand, showing a bit of Kawaki's audacious style.
"I trust you."
Misaki forced a smile. She was delicate - minded and didn't want Nawaki to worry with her.
Her hand, after a slight struggle, gave up and just let Nawaki hold it.
Instead, she felt a sense of peace in her heart.
Minato kept clicking his tongue behind them.
He had underestimated Nawaki. It wasn't just good; he had learned at least seventy percent of the teacher's know - how.
He wasn't worried at all. Misaki was just an ordinary person bearing the Uzumaki name.
Minato had quietly tested many times on the way. Nawaki was just over - concerned.
Since the teacher had promised, this matter was a done deal.
