In Konoha Hospital, apart from the director, Yakushi Terunou, she can be considered the second-in-command, and her presence is quite significant.
"I'm worried, is there something wrong with this?" Minato Namikaze said with concern, his worries quite frank.
I'm very worried about safety!
Is it really safe to give birth in Konoha Hospital?
“Minato, what’s there to worry about?” However, Kushina didn’t see anything wrong with it and thought Minato was worrying unnecessarily.
“Generally speaking, there’s nothing to worry about, but you’re an exception. If the seal breaks, I’m afraid…” Minato Namikaze sighed helplessly, explaining that the situation was special and that’s why he was so worried.
"It's alright, isn't there Lady Tsunade?"
Kushina didn't care at all; on the contrary, she was very carefree and relaxed.
"Kushina, I don't know why, but something just feels off. It's not safe to stay in the hospital." Minato Namikaze pointed this out, his expression worried.
what?
Not safe?
This is Konoha, how could it not be safe?
Although Minato Namikaze repeatedly said it was unsafe, Kushina found it unreasonable. How could it be unsafe?
"You're really worrying too much. How could it be unsafe? I don't believe in that stuff." Kushina frankly admitted that she didn't believe it; Konoha Hospital was definitely safe.
Not safe?
Forget it, I don't believe it.
Namikaze Minato: "..."
He didn't know how to correct Kushina's perception, because it was indeed true that Konoha was unsafe. But for some reason, Minato Namikaze had a vague, uneasy feeling about it.
"Kushina, you rest here. I'm going to find Lady Tsunade." Minato Namikaze decided to go find Tsunade anyway, just to make sure she was safe.
However, before Minato Namikaze could set off, Nonou Yakushiji arrived in the room.
"Dean?"
Minato Namikaze was stunned when he saw Nono Yakushiji appear.
But he quickly realized what was happening and hurriedly said, "Dean, what brings you here?"
"I'm here to tell you that the Hokage has given you the latest instructions. Tomorrow, she will personally be in charge of delivering Kushina's baby. Also, Konoha Hospital will be under martial law. Minato, from now on, you must stay by Kushina's side at all times. The Uchiha clan head, Uchiha Hakubaki, will also be there tomorrow to ensure Kushina's safety."
Yakushi Nonou came on Tsunade's orders, and after giving Tsunade her instructions, she prepared to take her leave.
However, Minato Namikaze called out to her, realizing something was amiss, and quickly asked, "Is this the Hokage's order?"
Yakushiji Nonou nodded and replied, "Yes."
Is that really an order?
But this means something is wrong. It's not simply about protecting the Jinchūriki; it's clearly... a trap, as if they're luring someone into a snare.
Hokage, are you risking Kushina's life?
But with that one person in charge, nothing could possibly go wrong.
Upon learning that Bai Mu had arrived, Minato Namikaze felt both fear and relief. He was afraid because it meant that things were unlikely to change, and he was relieved because with Bai Mu there, nothing could go wrong.
Although he was most likely the one who caused the incident, Kushina's life would not be in danger if Bai Mu were here to oversee things.
"May I see Lady Tsunade?" Minato Namikaze hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to ask, but after much deliberation, he finally uttered the question.
Chapter 157 Tsunade: Will you come tomorrow, October 10th?
"of course."
Yakushiji Nonou found it strange. Why did she see Tsunade, the Hokage, have a problem? Besides, you are the leader of the Jonin class, and you can report any situation.
Your question has left me unsure how to answer.
"Thank you, then I'll trouble you to look after Kushina." Minato Namikaze said gratefully, gave a brief explanation, and then hurriedly left.
Yakushi Nonou: "..."
silence.
Still silent.
She was having some trouble dealing with it.
As expected, I'm not suited for these kinds of jobs. Working at an orphanage is much better for me. Being a hospital director or hospital manager is far less desirable than being an orphanage director.
Kushina was actually quite helpless, not knowing where Minato Namikaze came from, and became a bit neurotic.
She could only apologize to Yakushiji Nonou, and also explain, "I'm sorry, Dean, Minato was a little too worried about me."
“I know, I understand.” A pure smile appeared on Yakushiji Nonou’s face as she glanced at Kushina and said softly.
For parents, it's their first time, especially since Kushina has a special identity, with the strongest tailed beast sealed within her—the Nine-Tails!
Having children weakens the seal, so it would be strange if it weren't taken seriously.
It's reasonable and normal to attach importance to this.
Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze left his room and headed straight for the hospital entrance, because Nono Yakushiji had said that Tsunade had only sent someone to deliver a message.
So the place I should go is naturally the Hokage Building!
They should be here, right?
Minato Namikaze left the hospital building and suddenly stopped, looking somewhat uncertain.
Forget it, I'll use the Flying Thunder God Technique!
He left many marks within Konoha Village, but not in some places, such as the Uchiha clan's territory, though there were marks outside the clan's territory.
As for the Hokage Building, it's not inside, but it's outside.
So with a single Flying Thunder God Technique, he arrived outside the Hokage Building.
Hokage's office.
Minato Namikaze appeared at the entrance.
The presence of ANBU ninjas here indicates that someone is indeed inside, but is it Tsunade or the Shadow Hokage—Alice Lisse…?
Well, that's hard to say.
"Lord Minato, the Hokage said that once you arrive, you can come in." The ANBU ninja standing at the door spoke before Minato could even speak.
Did you know in advance that I was coming?
No, I expected you to come.
Minato Namikaze composed himself, pushed open the door, and went inside.
Inside the office, as expected, were Tsunade and Alice Lise.
One sat idly in the Hokage's seat, while the other buried himself in his work, handling government affairs.
"Hokage-sama."
Minato Namikaze's attitude was respectful and very appropriate.
"Minato, have a seat." Tsuna gestured to the sofa next to him, indicating that he could sit down.
Bai Mu was also there; Minato Namikaze, who was sitting down, saw him sitting opposite, but he clearly didn't pay much attention to him.
Minato Namikaze knew he needed to get straight to the point and state the purpose of his visit.
"Lord Hokage, why did you make Kushina give birth in the hospital?"
Esdeath stood behind Shiro. Although her sudden appearance did not frighten Minato Namikaze, it still made him twitch his eyebrows and wonder what she was going to do.
"Isn't it reasonable to give birth in a hospital?"
As Esdeath finished speaking, Tsunade chimed in, "Yes, she's right."
Is there anything wrong with this?
I'm sure there's nothing wrong with that.
Tsunade's agreement undoubtedly gave Minato Namikaze a headache, but he continued speaking because he had to explain the situation, so it was something he had to say.
"Lord Hokage, that's true, but Kushina's situation is very special, as you know, and I'm afraid..."
Upon hearing this, Tsunade said softly, "With Bai Mu here, what are you afraid of?"
what?
Is there anything to be afraid of?
No way! Bai Mu is personally overseeing things, plus me, and that Irene who claims she could wipe out me, Alice, and Esdeath with one hand...
To be honest, I don't know how I lost.
Namikaze Minato: "..."
Yes, that's right, I don't know how I'll lose, but that doesn't mean I'm not worried. As her husband, I'm still very anxious, especially since I'm really nervous!
But now Tsunade says there's no need to worry so much. As a Jonin of Konoha, Minato Namikaze certainly can't say he doesn't believe her. The Fourth Hokage said there's no problem, and with Hakubaki also there to oversee things...
Do I still need to question myself?
Minato Namikaze knew this was absolutely unacceptable, so he knew exactly how to answer and would never make a mistake.
"Lord Hokage, I understand!"
"Also, Chief Bai Mu, I'd like to trouble you!"
In addition, Minato Namikaze did not forget to express his gratitude to Shiro Maki. People say that he personally oversaw his wife's childbirth, so shouldn't he be grateful?
That's definitely necessary, and you need to be sincere and have the right attitude, otherwise you might easily offend people...
Bai Mu waved his hand and said softly, "It's nothing, it's all for Konoha."
That sounds a bit strange.
Never mind, you're right.
