Chapter 306 Kushina is about to give birth
When Kushina was about to give birth, Minato Namikaze, for Kushina's safety and for the safety of Konoha, prepared to move her to a base far away from the village.
Only the Third Kazekage and his wife, and Kyosuke's team knew this information.
"I'm sorry I can't be by your side to see our child born."
Under the moonlight, at the crossroads outside Konoha Village, Minato Namikaze's voice was filled with apology.
As Hokage, Minato Namikaze needed to handle his own duties and couldn't just disappear without a reason, otherwise it would cause chaos.
"Haha, it's alright. I'll tell our child that his father is a great hero, and he certainly won't blame you."
Kushina, who was heavily pregnant, seemed quite cheerful and didn't seem to care that Minato Namikaze wasn't around.
Nearby stood the Third Hokage's wife, Sarutobi Biwako, who was responsible for delivering Kushina's baby.
Kyosuke's team of four looked around warily to prevent anyone from spying on them.
Minato Namikaze and Kushina exchanged a few more words before Biwako Sarutobi spoke up, saying, "We can't stay here any longer, or we might be discovered."
Minato Namikaze held Kushina's hands: "You must be careful, and don't be reckless."
With Minato's help, Kushina boarded the carriage, smiling as she said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll listen to Aunt Biwako. I'm getting into the carriage now. Goodbye."
After getting into the carriage, Kushina's smile vanished. She wanted to cry, but fearing that Minato would worry, she covered her mouth with her hands, leaving only tears welling up in her eyes.
Sarutobi Biwako also boarded the carriage and gently embraced Kushina in the darkness, softly comforting her, "It's alright, child. In a few days, everything will be fine."
Outside the carriage, Kyosuke sat down as the driver and said to Minato Namikaze, "Sensei, we're setting off."
Minato Namikaze waved his left hand slightly: "I'm counting on you, Kyosuke."
Kyosuke nodded, then drove the carriage slowly forward. Kakashi, Obito, and Shisui bid farewell to Minato Namikaze and followed around the carriage to provide protection.
Only after watching the carriage gradually disappear into the darkness did Minato Namikaze turn and leave.
The carriage didn't move very fast, and they didn't reach their destination until the afternoon of the second day.
This is a river in a dense forest, and there is a sturdy house on the riverbank.
"Kushina-neechan, we've arrived."
Stepping down from the carriage, Kushina looked around with slightly reddened eyes. Seeing the lush green forest, clear river water, flowers in the meadow, and distant mountains shrouded in mist, her mood improved considerably.
Sarutobi Biwako helped Kushina into the house, while Kyosuke's squad began to scout and familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment, setting up many traps.
For the next few days, Kyosuke and his three companions provided round-the-clock protection, remaining vigilant against any disturbances in their surroundings.
The Hokage's direct subordinate Anbu also went on high alert, and Minato Namikaze was ready to command the Anbu to support Kyosuke's team at any time.
At this point, Danzo had already used his power and influence to obtain Konoha's security arrangements and then devised a suitable invasion route for the Akatsuki organization.
A few days later, the Akatsuki members changed into the uniforms and masks of the Konoha Anbu and infiltrated the core area of the Land of Fire.
Danzo didn't know Kushina's location either, so he could only use the process of elimination to find several possible locations and then inform the Akatsuki organization.
As for the exact location, Danzo still needs time to investigate.
In a wooded area outside Konoha, there is an underground base of the Root organization, which is currently being used to house the Akatsuki members.
Kakuzu looked at the Konoha map that Danzo had sent him and was somewhat dissatisfied.
"There are so many suspected locations, what if there are traps among them?"
Nagato said, "When a Jinchuriki gives birth, the seal will inevitably crack. As long as the Nine-Tails' chakra leaks out, I can sense it. They couldn't possibly use the Nine-Tails as bait."
Leaning against the wall with a meatball stuffed in his mouth, Mikami said as he chewed, "Then let's wait for Danzo's news, Boss. Let's divide the tasks."
Yahiko sat down at the table, used a toothpick to adjust the wick of the oil lamp on the table, making the light brighter, before turning to look at everyone.
"Once the target is located, Nagato, Orochimaru, and Tekka will form a group to capture the Nine-Tails. Sasori, Kakuzu, and Yamori will form a group of three to intercept enemy reinforcements."
Sasori spoke up, "Leader, Kakuzu and Yagami are capable of intercepting the enemy. I'll go with you."
Sasori was still plotting to kill Kakashi Hatake.
Yahiko glanced at Sasori and thought it was a good idea, as it would ensure a faster capture of the Nine-Tails, so he agreed.
Of course,
After discussing for a while, everyone rested, and Mikami immediately informed Kyosuke of the news.
In his dream, Kyosuke felt somewhat worried after learning about this.
Yahiko, Nagato, Orochimaru, Tekka, and Sasori—these five are really difficult to deal with.
To be honest, Kyosuke's team is not weak either, and they are strong enough to withstand many powerful opponents. However, this enemy is too strong. Not to mention that Kyosuke and his team cannot stop them, even if the entire Konoha were to mobilize, they might not be able to defeat them.
How to do it?
Kyosuke hated Danzo to the core. Without this traitor, the Akatsuki organization wouldn't have been able to infiltrate so easily.
The Akatsuki are really insecure. They attacked a mere Nine-Tails Jinchuriki under the protection of Konoha. It would be one thing if they sent one or two people, but they actually sent so many!
Imagine the anime, where the disabled Nagato dared to attack Konoha all by himself—what incredible courage!
Now let's look at the Akatsuki organization.
Pooh!
What a bunch of cowards!
Kyosuke was caught in a dilemma. He couldn't tell Minato Namikaze about it directly, nor could he abandon Kushina. But if he fought Nagato and the others, even if Kyosuke used Sage Mode, there was still a chance he would be killed.
After fretting for a long time, Kyosuke gritted his teeth and came up with a terrible idea.
"The Akatsuki are planning to attack Kushina, right? I'll have someone attack her beforehand. Minato will definitely strengthen his protection of Kushina, which means there will be more people to take the fall, making me even safer!"
Kiichiro nodded: "Understood. I will immediately use Edo Tensei to resurrect Ooka Shin and have him play the role of the attacker."
Kyosuke urged, "Tell him to hurry up, Kushina is about to give birth!"
Chisuke said from the side, "If Kakashi, Obito, and Shisui are killed, collect some of their flesh and blood tissue and let Kiichiro study it. It might be useful."
Kyosuke sighed, "I know what to do."
After the dream ended, Kiichiro immediately resurrected Ooka Shin using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
Ooka Shin opened his eyes, saw Kiichiro, and said with a smile, "What mission is it now?"
Kiichiro repeated Kyosuke's words, and Ooka Shin frowned and said, "Kushina's location is so well hidden. If I attack her directly, won't that expose Kyosuke?"
Kiichiro shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "If anyone should be suspected, it should be Danzo. He colluded with the Akatsuki organization this time and arranged for the Akatsuki organization to successfully infiltrate the Land of Fire. The Konoha leaders are not stupid. They will definitely find out."
Hearing Kiichiro's explanation, Ooka Shin had no more doubts and immediately set off for the Land of Fire.
After traveling for a day and a night without sleep, he finally arrived near Kushina's stronghold.
