Naruto: The Brightest Star

After a long period of teaching, Uchiha Xing basically remembered all the contents, and then changed Uzumaki Kushina's teaching method and started teaching himself.

Ah~ I finally understand why Naruto’s teaching is so vague, it turns out it’s inherited from you.

Uchiha Xing sighed helplessly.

After a week of teaching, Karin successfully learned the Diamond Block.

"Humph~"

Uzumaki Kushina crossed her arms and sulked alone.

"Okay, okay~ No matter what, I have learned what I need to learn."

Uchiha Star comforted Uzumaki Kushina.

"Humph~"

Uzumaki Kushina crossed her arms and turned her head away, not wanting to pay any attention to Uchiha Xing.

"Oh, right!"

Uchiha Xing looked at Uzumaki Kushina and suddenly thought of something.

"Kushina, how is your control of your spiritual power?"

"Uh... this... um..."

Uzumaki Kushina was a little panicked.

"Isn't it possible that I have been neglecting it for a long time~"

Uchiha Star looked at Uzumaki Kushina with a smile.

"No, it's nothing. How could I neglect it? Ah, hahaha."

Uzumaki Kushina laughed dryly, her eyes looking around.

"Ah~ You seem to be very free these days~ It's okay, I will train with you~"

Uchiha Xing smiled very kindly.

"Arnold, Arnold..."

Uzumaki Kushina was frantically thinking of what excuse she could use to get Uchiha Hoshi to stop watching her practice.

"Knock knock knock!"

A knock on the door successfully rescued Uzumaki Kushina.

"Well! Yuori! There's a knock on the door! Someone must be looking for you. I'm leaving now."

Uzumaki Kushina said as she quickly ran outside.

At the same time, Uchiha Xing's office door was opened, and he bumped into the person who opened the door.

When she saw the other person, Uzumaki Kushina was stunned.

"Xiaoxing, I'm here to report to you about my recent work."

The man said as he walked into the office.

“Lin…Lin!”

Uzumaki Kushina looked at Nohara Rin who walked in in shock.

"I see."

Uchiha Xing nodded, and then listened to Nohara Lin's work report.

Uzumaki Kushina kept looking at Nohara Rin in disbelief.

It was not until Nohara Lin finished reporting her work and left that Uzumaki Kushina came to her senses.

"Do you know Lin?"

Uchiha Xing supported his chin and looked at Uzumaki Kushina and asked.

"Well, she is Minato's disciple."

Uzumaki Kushina nodded blankly, then realized something and looked at Uchiha Xing.

"Haori, did Lin enter the artificial body like me? Why can't she see me?"

Uzumaki Kushina looked at Uchiha Star nervously. After all, she had heard from Kakashi that Nohara Rin was dead, but now, she was standing in front of her alive.

"not really."

Uchiha Xing shook his head slightly, then said, "I picked her up by accident when I went out a few years ago. She was seriously injured at that time. Fortunately, I found her, otherwise she would not have survived."

"She has stayed here ever since. You just said that she was a student of the Yondaime? But she never told me about this."

Uchiha Xing rubbed his forehead and said.

"Is this so?"

Uzumaki Kushina nodded thoughtfully.

"So, when do we practice?"

Uchiha Star looked at Uzumaki Kushina with a smile.

"Ah, this! Ah, this!"

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes rolled around, and then she ran away.

"How naughty~"

Uchiha Xing smiled and looked at the direction where Uzumaki Kushina left.

The next second, Uchiha Xing disappeared instantly, and then caught the fleeing Uzumaki Kushina at an extremely fast speed.

"No!!!"

……

The sixty-second year of Konoha.

"How is it? I told you, this artificial body is very suitable for you."

Uchiha Star smiled and followed Uzumaki Kushina.

"Although I want to admit that this artificial body is very good, why did you dye my hair black?!"

Uzumaki Kushina yelled angrily.

"Come on, you've only been gone for a few years, and there are a lot of people who know you. If there's some resemblance, it's fine, but if you're exactly the same, it'll easily arouse suspicion."

Uchiha Xing silently put away his special hair dye.

"Then you can't dye your hair a different color?"

Uzumaki Kushina touched her black hair, with a hint of disgust in her eyes.

"How about changing it to dark blue? Or yellow?"

Uchiha Xing said as he took out his various colored hair dyes.

"Uh... black, please."

Uzumaki Kushina looked at the hair dyes that were like a color palette, and still thought black was okay.

"By the way, I remember that you seemed to have received an invitation from Konoha to take the Chunin Exam some time ago, right?"

Uzumaki Kushina pulled up a random chair and sat down.

"Well, I plan to let Bai and the others attend."

Uchiha Xing said as he began to sift through the list.

"Eh? They go? Are you kidding me? Their strength is almost catching up with that of a Jonin. How can you let them bully those kids?"

Uzumaki Kushina looked at Uchiha Hoshi in shock.

"What nonsense! Genin are not just children. And the reason I let them go is to let them get to know the ninjas from other countries. Besides, there are more than just the three of them, there are other Genin as well."

Uchiha Hoshi listed the names of the Genin that were going to go.

"What about the team leader? Will you go?"

Uzumaki Kushina looked at Uchiha Star strangely.

"I won't go. After all, I am the leader of the Rain Country. If I go as a team leader, it will be very troublesome."

After Uchiha Xing finished selecting the list of Genin, he began to select the team leader.

"Is this so..."

Uzumaki Kushina said, her eyes rolled, and then she looked at Uchiha Xing happily and said: "Haori, how about letting me go this time, I will help you lead the team and make sure those children come back safely."

"No, I already have someone."

Uchiha Xing said as he took out a document.

Uzumaki Kushina moved closer curiously.

"Quanzi?"

Uzumaki Kushina picked up the information and looked at the young-looking girl in the photo.

In the photo, the girl had shoulder-length brown hair with natural curls. She wore a pair of black goggles on her face. There were two two-finger-wide streaks of red paint on her cheeks. She was wearing a ninja uniform, but the sleeves were so long that they completely covered her hands.

"Well, this is Izumi. Although she may look strong, she is a genuine jonin and is very good at medical ninjutsu. With her around, we can provide timely treatment."

Uchiha Xing introduced the captain he had chosen to Uzumaki Kushina.

"Is she as good as you say?"

Damn it! My plan to go out and play has failed! No! I must persuade Yuori and then go out and play!

When she was alive, as a Jinchūriki, Uzumaki Kushina had no way of leaving the village. After her death, she stayed in Konoha because she was worried about Uzumaki Naruto and no one could see her.

Now that she is freer, Uzumaki Kushina wants to see the outside world.

"some."

Uchiha Xing nodded, then glanced at Uzumaki Kushina and said, "Well, you seem a little bored. Let's put it this way, you have been by my side for quite a long time, and you should know how to deal with some things. The Konoha branch happens to be short of a manager, so how about you go there to learn?"

"Really!"

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes suddenly lit up. Although she was going back to Konoha, which she was very familiar with, this time she could be more free. Most importantly, she could see her child.

"Of course it's true. Here it is! This is the document, and I have already informed them."

"Oh, right! You should train well with the shallow sword I gave you. I hope you can hear its name as soon as possible."

Uchiha Hoshi said as he handed the paperwork to Uzumaki Kushina.

"Don't worry, I eat and sleep with it all day long, train with it every day, and then talk about the stars and ideals."

Uzumaki Kushina said as she raised the katana in her hand.

"Although I know you want to communicate with it properly, why do you want to talk about me?"

Uchiha Star looked at Uzumaki Kushina in confusion.

"Huh? No!"

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes drifted away, and then she said, "I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the stars in the sky."

"Yeah."

Uchiha Xing looked at Uzumaki Kushina with narrowed eyes. For some reason, Uchiha Xing always felt that Uzumaki Kushina was lying.

"Well, never mind. Just talk about whatever you want."

Uchiha Xing didn't care too much about this.

"Remember to bring your stuff. Do you need me to take you there?"

"No, no, I'm already there!"

Uzumaki Kushina said this and ran away.

"Really? You're so grown up, but you're still so frivolous. Unlike me, I'm so steady."

Uchiha Xing looked at Uzumaki Kushina's back as she ran away, as if she were a child.

"Xiao Xing? Who ran away just now?"

At this time, Nohara Rin walked in with something in her arms, her eyes fixed on the direction where Uzumaki Kushina ran.

"Oh! She is someone I just recruited. Her name is..."

Uchiha Xing smiled mischievously and said: "Ramen~"

"Huh? There's actually someone with such a weird name!"

Nohara Lin looked at Uchiha Xing with some surprise.

"Well, it is said that the person who named her didn't know what to name her, and happened to see a ramen restaurant, so he named her Ramen."

Uchiha Xing smiled very happily.

"What a careless parent!"

Nohara Lin said this with great sympathy.

"Yeah~"

Uchiha Xing laughed a few times, then said: "But don't call her by this name normally, she will be very angry if you don't. Normally... just call her Nana."

"I see."

Nohara Lin nodded to show that she understood.

"By the way, Xiaoxing! When I came here, Kaori-san asked me to ask when Kakuzu will be back?"

Nohara Lin remembered what Kaori had asked her to do when she came here.

"I've asked him about the debt to the Land of Earth, and the old man refused to acknowledge it. However, Kakuzu has made sufficient preparations, and I believe he will be back in a few days, so don't worry."

Uchiha Xing comforted Nohara Lin.

"I see. I will inform Sister Kaori about this."

Nohara Lin nodded to show that she understood.
