Chapter 154 Don't forget the water gate who flirted with girls during the war!
The roar in the early morning woke up Minato from his deep sleep.
He got up from the floor, quickly came to the window, and looked out the window.
Seeing the billowing smoke and devastation in his field of vision, Minato couldn't help but murmur.
"...An enemy attack? Fortunately, nothing happened to my home."
Turning his head to look at Kushina who was sleeping very soundly, Minato felt a little helpless.
"Kushina! Kushina! Wake up!" He couldn't help calling.
But——the girl still didn't wake up.
Minato was sure that his voice just now was loud enough, but the girl was still sleeping soundly, with sweet dimples on her lips and a beautiful smile.
Thinking of what Kushina said before - "With you, I can sleep peacefully", his eyes turned red.
"However, I can't let you sleep like this anymore!"
Minato came to the bed and reached out to touch Kushina's cheek.
Just as he reached halfway, he noticed a blush creeping silently onto the girl's right cheek, which was exposed because she was sleeping on her side.
Then, he saw the girl's slightly trembling eyelashes.
"Are you... awake yet?"
Minato's voice chuckled in his heart.
Now that Kushina is awake, he doesn't have to worry about offending the girl unintentionally.
Thinking of this, Minato took Kushina's hand and ran towards the door. As he ran, he said innocently: "Kushina! Enemy attack!"
After pretending to sleep for a long time, Kushina never expected such a divine unfolding.
"Is it that hard for you to touch my face with your hands?"
Looking at the young man's handsome back, Kushina couldn't help but cursed in her heart.
After being pulled by Minato and running for a while, she noticed the dark clouds rising in the sky.
"Hey, isn't this the ninjutsu of the moon?"
"……Um."
Minato stopped and seemed a little distracted.
"Minato, what's wrong with you? I always feel like you're acting weird today!"
After waiting for a long time, she heard such a simple "hmm" from the boy's mouth. How could Kushina be willing to accept it?
Feeling the boy's increasingly hot palm, she seemed to understand something.
"Minato, you have something to tell me, don't you?"
The girl's voice sounded indescribably gentle, but Minato didn't hear it very clearly.
Because - at this moment, his focus was entirely on the sound of his heartbeat "bang bang, bang bang". He could hear this rapid and powerful sound very clearly, and he understood that this sound was frantic because he wanted to confess his love.
Heart sounds.
Taking a deep breath, as if he had been thinking for ten thousand years, the young man finally made up his mind.
"Kushina...!"
"Yeah. Minato, I'm listening."
Hearing the expectant voice coming from behind, Minato summoned all his strength, and under the watchful eyes of the crows overhead, shouted: "Kushina——"
"Boom!"
"--I love you."
It's a pity that the confession that was supposed to come naturally was ruined by the sound of the explosion.
A huge roar swallowed up the second half of the young man's words.
Kushina heard nothing.
Even with her back to Minato, she couldn't see the mouth shape of her crush, so she had no way of knowing what the boy had just said.
However, she had a hunch, a very strong hunch: the answer just now must be very important to her.
After a short period of tinnitus, she had a vague feeling of loss. This feeling was like reading a good book, but at the most critical plot point, she found that a page had been torn out of the book, which made people extremely gripping.
mad.
How could Kushina be so willing?
She didn't care about her own reserve as a girl, she squeezed Minato's hand and asked again.
"Minato, what did you just say?"
"I love...I'm fine!"
Hearing this question, Minato felt an inexplicable panic. He didn't dare to say the confession he had mustered up the courage to say again, so he could only prevaricate in a panic.
"You're lying to me! Jian Yue told me that the biggest lie a man can tell is that it's okay!"
"this……!"
Minato's forehead was covered with sweat called "guilty conscience".
"I love you" is obviously a very simple sentence, but when it comes to actually saying it to the person he loves, he finds it particularly difficult.
The reason why these three words are so difficult to say, for Minato, is because he is afraid of the girl's rejection, so the deeper he falls in love with Kushina, the harder it becomes to speak.
Kushina waited for a long time but did not receive a reply from the boy. She felt extremely sad. This strong sense of loss from heaven to hell made her heart ache.
She broke away from Minato's hand, jumped up, and quickly disappeared from the boy's sight.
Minato lowered his head in despair.
When he came back from the future, he thought for a long time and felt that he might not be able to give Kushina happiness.
Because in his opinion, whether it was the failure to protect his lover during childbirth or Naruto's miserable childhood, they were all related to him, the head of the family.
When he wakes up from sleep these days, the question he asks himself most often is: What can he give Kushina?
After thinking about it for several nights, he could only think of himself, Naruto and a bunch of hatred, such a boring answer.
"This is not what Kushina wants!" Minato shook his head.
But for some reason, when he looked at the direction Kushina was leaving, he always had the urge to chase after her at all costs.
"Can I? Can I invite Kushina to be Naruto's mother and my lover?"
Minato shook his golden hair and kept questioning himself in his mind.
"ah--!"
While I was thinking, a sharp exclamation suddenly came from the horizon.
"No! It's Kushina's voice!"
Minato quickly activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and appeared in front of Kushina.
At this moment, above the dark clouds composed of crows, a huge energy ball hit Kushina.
She originally planned to talk to Uchiha Mitsuki to talk about her worries, but she never expected to be so unlucky that she directly encountered such a terrifying attack.
As the energy ball approaches, the terrifying energy above becomes clearer and stronger.
Thinking of Minato, Kushina slowly closed her eyes without resisting, letting the energy ball engulf her.
However, although the unbridled energy wave blew her red hair flying in the air, she herself did not feel any pain.
She opened her eyes and looked to her side.
Minato was actually using the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer the energy ball in front of him.
Soon, the huge energy ball disappeared.
Kushina's long red hair also fell down smoothly.
Immediately afterwards, her body softened and she fell down weakly.
Seeing this, Minato hurriedly picked up the girl in front of him.
"Minato, I thought you wouldn't come!"
Kushina's voice seemed particularly haggard.
Minato's heart tightened and he said, "You know, I will definitely come."
