Seeing his wife about to explode, Minato's smile instantly turned into one of extreme embarrassment and...guilt.
He quickly grabbed Kushina, trying to calm her down: "Kushina, calm down! Calm down! Things... aren't as simple as you think..."
"If it's not like that, then what is it?!"
Kushina was furious: "Is he, the Third Hokage, so incapable of even taking care of a child?!"
"Naruto is the son of a hero! He's the child we protected with our lives!"
There was a cry in her voice.
"This one……"
Minato scratched his face, his eyes somewhat unfocused: "Actually... the Third Hokage... didn't completely break his promise."
“He…he regularly sends Naruto a living allowance every month, and the amount…is not small, probably tens of thousands of taels.”
"Tens of thousands of taels?"
Kushina's anger subsided slightly, but she still frowned: "While we're not extremely wealthy, it should be enough to support a child's basic needs, plus the ninja's allowance..."
"but……"
Minato's voice lowered further, filled with deep helplessness. He covered his face, seemingly unable to bear to continue.
Just then, the Nine-Tailed Fox, who had been lying there pretending to be dead, covered its still throbbing nose with its claws.
He interrupted in a muffled voice, his tone full of exasperation: "But! That idiot! Every time he gets money, the first thing he does is run to the 'Ichiraku Limited Edition Instant Noodle Shop' next to the ninja tool shop at the village entrance!"
"He exchanged all of his meager living expenses! I mean all of it! for those colorful, limited-edition instant noodles printed with various hero images!"
"It's piled up all over the house! I've told him so many times, but he won't listen! It's driving me crazy!"
Minato lowered his hand, his face filled with the helplessness of "family misfortune": "Sigh...yes."
"He even... preferred to complete the almost hellish training tasks that Mr. Ban had set for him, and come back exhausted like a dead dog."
"They won't give up on this idea, in his words..."
Minato mimicked Naruto's self-righteous yet silly tone: "'This is a limited edition! Once it's gone, it's gone! How can you not buy it?!'"
"Teacher Iruka said meals should be nutritionally balanced? Don't instant noodles have vegetable and meat fillings?"
As soon as Minato finished speaking, the entire sealed space seemed to be instantly muted.
Kushina's expression shifted slightly from a hint of relief upon hearing that the Third Hokage had given her money.
Then he learned about Naruto's questioning of spending money recklessly.
Then there was the shock when he heard that Naruto had used all his money to buy a limited edition instant noodle.
Finally, when they heard Naruto's twisted logic about "balanced nutrition"...
Her beautiful and spirited face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye!
His face was even darker than Ban's!
Like dark clouds looming overhead before a storm!
Her fiery red hair moved without wind, and she began to exude an extremely terrifying low pressure!
It was even more intense than when the Nine-Tails was suppressed! The entire Japanese-style room in the consciousness space seemed to be shaking!
"Uzumaki...Naruto—!!!"
A roar that could shatter a soul, filled with extreme anger, disappointment, and deep maternal love.
Like a thunderclap from a clear sky, it suddenly erupted from the depths of Kushina's soul!
The sound pierced through the barrier of the sealed space and directly bombarded the depths of Naruto's sleeping consciousness outside!
Outside, at Naruto's cabin.
Naruto was lying sprawled on the bed, hugging a pillow with a limited-edition instant noodle pattern.
Sleeping soundly with drool dripping down my face, dreaming of endless delicious ramen.
"Naruto—!!!"
It was like a Tailed Beast Ball exploding right next to my ear!
That roar, filled with maternal authority and boundless rage, instantly jolted Naruto awake from his deep sleep!
"Wow--!!!"
Naruto sprang up from the bed as if he had a spring in his body!
My heart was pounding, and the hair on my body stood on end!
He instinctively assumed a fighting stance, cautiously surveying the dimly lit room.
His sleepy eyes were filled with terror: "Who?! Who's in my house?! Is it an enemy?!"
He nervously scanned his surroundings, but found nothing.
However, before he could figure out what was going on, an incredibly powerful and irresistible pulling force from the depths of his soul suddenly came over him!
Naruto felt a blur before his eyes, and the world spun around him!
The next second, his consciousness appeared in that familiar yet unfamiliar "Japanese-style room"—his inner space.
"Huh? This... Dad? Father? Uncle Nine-Ratna? You guys..."
Naruto rubbed his still-sleepy eyes and looked at Minato standing next to the low table.
Madara sat on the head of the Nine-Tailed Fox, closing his eyes to rest.
And there was the Nine-Tailed Fox, lying on the ground with two huge "panda eyes" and looking at him with a "good luck" expression.
The change in environment left him somewhat bewildered.
Then, his gaze fell on the low table next to him.
The figure with his back to him, whose fiery red hair moved without wind, and who exuded a terrifyingly low pressure.
“You are…” Naruto looked at the unfamiliar figure with a puzzled expression.
The figure suddenly turned around!
A beautiful, spirited face, yet now filled with anger.
With a maternal aura that made Naruto's soul tremble, it instantly filled his entire field of vision!
Those eyes, as blue as his, yet burning with raging fury, were fixed on him!
"He calls his mother 'Mom' right off the bat?!"
Kushina's voice was like hailstones, carrying a chilling coldness and deep grievance.
"Mom?" Naruto was completely stunned, his mind went blank.
His... mother?
Before he could even recover from this massive information overload!
Kushina appeared before him as if she had teleported!
So fast that even the afterimage was invisible! A fist formed from chakra, yet carrying immense power.
With a whistling wind, it struck relentlessly and solidly—
Boom-! ! !
It slammed hard into Naruto's head!
"Ouch--!!!"
Naruto cried out in pain, clutching his head where a huge bump had suddenly appeared, tears streaming down his face from the pain!
This feeling... is so real!
"You are... oh? Mom?!"
Naruto covered his head, his eyes brimming with tears as he looked at the furious red-haired woman before him.
The image that Minato had depicted countless times in his consciousness—
A beautiful, powerful, hot-tempered mother with fiery red hair—
In an instant, he overlapped with the figure in front of him!
Uzumaki Kushina!
His...biological mother!
Immense shock, disbelief, belated elation, and the injustice of being punched...
Countless complex emotions overwhelmed Naruto like a tsunami!
He looked at his living, breathing mother who could hit him and get angry at him.
Looking into those azure eyes, identical to his own, he saw anger, concern, and a deep, almost overflowing longing and love hidden within them…
Naruto opened his mouth, as if to say something, to call out "Mom".
But his throat felt like it was blocked by something, and he could only make choked sobs.
All the hardships Sun had endured since childhood turned into a torrent of tears the moment he saw his birth mother.
Like a flood bursting its banks, it instantly overwhelmed all defenses!
Like a child who had been lost for many years and finally found his home, he rushed towards Kushina without hesitation!
"Waaaaaahh ...
Chapter 253 The Terrifying Mother
"Waaaaaahh ...
Naruto, carrying the pent-up grievances, longing, and ecstasy of over a decade, nestled into Kushina's arms like a fledgling returning to its nest.
The force was so great that, if it weren't for the fact that it occurred within the realm of consciousness, it would have nearly knocked Kushina off her feet.
Hot tears instantly soaked the front of Kushina's clothes.
The boy's body trembled violently with excitement, and he held his mother tightly with both arms, as if he wanted to make up for all the hugs he had missed over the years.
