Whirr——
The tide crashed against the reefs, stirring up large swathes of spray.
This was a very unfamiliar land to Naruto, but for Kushina, it was her hometown that she could never return to.
Since they were going to revive Minato Namikaze, they naturally had to release Minato Namikaze's soul first.
Naruto only rested in Wave Country for a day, and the next day he set off for the Land of Whirlpools.
The Land of Whirlpools was a peninsula, not far from Wave Country, just south of Wave Country, bordering the Land of Fire, and also facing the Land of Water across the sea.
In just half a day, Naruto had already set foot on the former territory of the Land of Whirlpools.
When Naruto entered the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools, he released Kushina and Minato Namikaze from the Sealing Space.
Minato Namikaze was just filled with emotion, but Kushina looked at the dilapidated scene in front of her and couldn't recover for a long time.
The scenes in her fragmented memories were still vivid in her mind.
A long time ago, the Land of Whirlpools was still a land of green trees and river waves, here, the green trees were lush, and the river waves rolled, complementing each other, making it a beautiful sight.
The trees would dye the water waves at the edge into a green color, but the center still reflected the wide blue sky.
She had also witnessed the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools with her own eyes, and had lived in war every day, but even the Land of Whirlpools back then was not as...
Utterly dilapidated as it was now.
The green forest had disappeared, leaving only a few scattered dead trees standing crookedly.
Under the not-so-scorching sunlight, even the air seemed a bit distorted, and hazy wisps of mist rose from the ground, bringing a pungent bloody smell with the gentle breeze.
After the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, it didn't mean that no one lived in this area anymore.
On the contrary, after the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, this land, which should have been full of death, had more fresh blood to irrigate it.
This place had completely become a chaotic land, a paradise for all kinds of criminals.
Rogue Ninja, Ronin, wandering Samurai, Bandit, Robber...
All kinds of people gathered here, formed their own organizations, and divided their own territories.
All kinds of bloody killings were staged every day.
It could be said that even if Naruto dropped a Great Spiraling Ring here, it would be difficult to find an innocent person among the hundred people who died.
Naruto was not in a hurry to leave, but was waiting for Kushina to slowly recover.
Minato Namikaze stood quietly beside Kushina, silently accompanying her.
"Can you accompany me to take a look inside first?"
Kushina's emotions were a little low, asking for the opinions of the two.
Minato Namikaze naturally wouldn't have any problems.
Naruto also nodded in agreement, they were not in a hurry.
The surroundings were dark and dilapidated buildings.
There were also rustling, ash-flying sounds, and a fishy smell so strong it felt like you could taste it.
The entire housing area was a mess, or rather, a scene of ruins and rubble.
The pitted, dark ground still retained the shocking crimson of fresh blood.
Naruto could already sense the countless malicious intents around him.
The people wandering the streets were all looking at the three of them with incredibly greedy eyes.
In this chaotic place, whether it was the mature and voluptuous Kushina, the sunny and handsome Minato Namikaze, or the young and dashing Naruto, they were all very popular.
Naruto didn't directly deal with these guys. After taking care of a few waves of people who tried to attack them, most of them only dared to stare at them from a distance, but they didn't leave, instead continuing to follow, probably gathering reinforcements.
Kushina wasn't wandering aimlessly. Although she hesitated at a few intersections, she was generally familiar with the road.
Finally, the three stopped in front of a barren piece of land.
Kushina looked at the empty Kitsuchi in front of her, her expression becoming somewhat lost.
Naruto felt like Kushina was about to cry.
"It's all gone."
Kushina murmured to herself. Before going to Konoha, this was where she lived.
Because she was a Jinchuriki, she had never left Konoha and never had the chance to come back and see it.
Now that she had returned, her former home was long gone, leaving only a pile of Kitsuchi.
Minato Namikaze naturally saw Kushina's current mood, stepped forward, and gently hugged her.
Feeling Minato Namikaze's embrace, Kushina's body trembled slightly.
Suddenly, Kushina pulled Naruto, who was next to her, into the hug as well.
Naruto, who hadn't been paying attention to Kushina, didn't have time to react before he was sandwiched between the two.
Feeling Kushina's mood, Naruto didn't push her away.
If he pushed her away at this time, it would seem too heartless.
After a while, more and more people gathered around.
They were whispering, discussing how to divide up these suddenly arrived fat sheep.
"Alright, it's time to find the Death God Mask."
After being hugged for a while, Naruto finally couldn't take it anymore and wriggled out from between the two.
"Okay, I'll take you there now!"
Kushina's originally lost mood improved again.
Looking at the father and son with similar appearances, a happy smile appeared on her face again.
Kushina bowed to the land and whispered, "I'm doing well now. Although I died once, I've come back to life. I have a husband and a son."
After saying that, Kushina was about to lead the way outside.
But as soon as she turned her head, she saw the dense crowd.
And a big man with a face full of scars was walking towards them.
Kushina's reaction just now was also seen by everyone.
"Little Niu, since you are also from here, why not stay here and keep us brothers company?"
"Uh!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, a Kunai shot into his mouth, shattering his tongue.
Another Shuriken pierced his brow, taking his life.
Minato Namikaze acted quite quickly, and he wasn't in a good mood right now.
Although there were many people in front of him, to be honest, they weren't enough for him to fight alone.
Among these people, there wasn't even a decent Ninja.
Minato Namikaze's sudden attack obviously caught the people present by surprise, and the atmosphere suddenly became deathly silent.
But in just a moment or two, someone shouted loudly again.
"Damn it! Let's go together!"
"Bloody, even more exciting!"
Looking at the surging crowd.
Minato Namikaze had just taken out a Kunai from his Ninja Tool Pouch when a Black Light was already fired out, piercing through the crowd.
Then with a sweep, the world quieted down.
The Black Light in Naruto's hand slowly dissipated, but his expression didn't change much.
Naruto didn't know what this group of people wanted to do by rushing up all at once, but at least it made it easier for him to kill them.
To step over an ant without killing it, this power is difficult to master.
