Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Selection of next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki
"Takumi, what's going on here?"
Mikoto looked at Tanaka Sensei grabbing Uzumaki Shura and scolding him, and she didn't understand the situation, so she asked Takumi.
"This, it's a bit complicated to explain, I'll just tell you briefly."
Takumi coughed lightly, and then said.
"Actually, Uzumaki Shura likes Uzumaki Hina, and Uzumaki Hina should have a good impression of Namikaze Minato, so the jealous and dissatisfied Uzumaki Shura beat Namikaze Minato."
"So that's how it is, Uzumaki Shura actually likes Hina, then Hina is really sad." Kushina said.
"By the way, your battle ended so quickly, who won?"
Mikoto asked Takumi curiously.
"Of course I won, a mere Nawaki, how could he be my opponent, I can beat him with one hand."
Takumi glanced at Nawaki, but what Takumi said was also true, Takumi could really beat Nawaki with one hand.
"Takumi, you're going too far. It was you who threaten and bribed me to lose to you. Otherwise, I would have knocked you down with one punch." Nawaki said unconvinced.
"I think you were knocked down with one punch."
Kushina pouted at Nawaki and said that if Takumi really used his full strength, he could have knocked Nawaki down with one punch.
"It feels good to see Uzumaki Shura being taught a lesson." Takumi smiled as he watched Uzumaki Shura being taught a lesson by Mr. Tanaka.
Uzumaki Shura was severely punished, and under the scolding of Mr. Tanaka, he apologized to Minato Namikaze.
Minato Namikaze also forgave Uzumaki Shura.
"You're so easy to forgive, you have to fight back anyway." Takumi couldn't help but say.
"Uzumaki Takumi."
Uzumaki Shura roared at Takumi.
"What? Do you want to hit me? Believe it or not, I'll break your legs."
Uzumaki Shura, who was angry, felt a dull pain in his legs when he heard what Takumi said, and he was unconsciously scared.
This made the classmates in the class secretly surprised. Why did Uzumaki Shura seem to be afraid of Uzumaki Takumi?
Although Uzumaki Takumi's grades in all aspects in the class were also good, he was not better than Uzumaki Shura. Why was Uzumaki Shura afraid of Uzumaki Takumi?
"Okay, don't fight privately, otherwise if I find out, you will be punished." Teacher Tanaka said.
"Today's test is over, so let's go home early. Minato Namikaze should go back and treat his injuries."
Hearing that they could go home early, there was a burst of cheers.
"Takumi, don't forget the barbecue you owe me." Nawaki stared at Takumi closely.
"Don't worry, you can't miss it. Let's go."
Takumi took Kushina, Mikoto, and the eager Nawaki to the barbecue restaurant together.

In the Senju clan's compound, Uzumaki Mito's residence, the third generation Hokage wearing a Hokage robe was standing at the door.
"Master's wife, Sarutobi Hiruzen is here." Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted at the door.
"It's little monkey, come in."
Hearing Uzumaki Mito call him little monkey, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face turned red. Fortunately, there were no outsiders, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
"Master's wife, what do you want me to do?"
That's right, it was not Sarutobi Hiruzen who took the initiative to come, but Uzumaki Mito.
Uzumaki Mito sent someone to call Sarutobi Hiruzen over.
"Huruzen, this time I asked you to come here to discuss the matter of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki." Uzumaki Mito no longer called Sarutobi Hiruzen a little monkey, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen less embarrassed.
"This?"
"I'm old, I don't know how many years I can hold on. We must select the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki as soon as possible." Uzumaki Mito said seriously.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent. After a long time, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Uzumaki Mito: "I wonder what you think."
"It is best to choose the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki from the Uzumaki clan. Only the physique of the Uzumaki clan can better suppress the Nine-Tails. Otherwise, it may cause the Nine-Tails to run away and even break the seal."
Uzumaki Mito said this very seriously. The power of the Nine-Tails is extraordinary. Without Hashirama, Konoha will find it difficult to resist the power of the Nine-Tails.
"Well, I think so too."
When it comes to the matter of the Nine-Tails, Sarutobi Hiruzen has to be cautious. The importance of the Nine-Tails is self-evident. The Uzumaki clan is the most suitable person to become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
"I wonder what candidates the master's wife has?" asked Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"I'm just suggesting it. It's up to you to choose." Uzumaki Mito said to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
"First of all, I recommend Uzumaki Takumi. He is the most suitable candidate. The next ones are Uzumaki Kushina and Uzumaki Hina."
"Isn't there another Uzumaki Shura? He seems to have good talent."
Uzumaki Mito shook his head. "His talent is indeed good, but he has a deep hatred and is very jealous. He is not suitable to be the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."
In fact, everyone in the Uzumaki family is suitable. It is said that Uzumaki Shura is not suitable because of his personality.
"Uzumaki Takumi?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly. Sarutobi Hiruzen knew several members of the Uzumaki family. Uzumaki Kaito was excluded first because he was an adult when he came to Konoha and was difficult to control. Sarutobi Hiruzen did not dare to use him.
As for Uzumaki Takumi, his performance in the ninja school seemed to be not as good as Uzumaki Shura. Why did the master's wife recommend him so much?
"Is it for the Senju clan?" Sarutobi Hiruzen guessed secretly in his heart.
Uzumaki Takumi and Tsunade are very close, and they have been labeled as members of the Senju clan, so Sarutobi Hiruzen guessed that his master's wife was preparing a backup plan for the Senju clan.
In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen's guess was completely wrong. Uzumaki Mito recommended Takumi because the majestic vitality in Takumi's body could completely suppress the Nine-Tails and make it safer for him to become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
"The Nine-Tails has a bad temper and is full of hatred for people. I think it's better to let a girl become the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and influence the Nine-Tails with love. I think that Uzumaki Hina is very good choice."
Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his head after saying this.
Uzumaki Mito looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen deeply, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. Sure enough, Sarutobi Hiruzen has changed.
What Sarutobi Hiruzen was thinking could not escape Uzumaki Mito's eyes.
She also guessed why Sarutobi Hiruzen did not choose Uzumaki Takumi and Uzumaki Kushina. It was nothing more than that the two of them were too close to the Senju clan.
"Mito sama, what do you think?" Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head and asked, with a flash of guilt in his eyes.
The Nine-Tails is too important, and Sarutobi Hiruzen can't let the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki belong to any clan.
"Since you have made up your mind, just do as you think! I'm a little tired, you leave first."
Uzumaki Mito waved his hand disappointedly.
"Then I'll take my leave first. Mito sama, if you have anything, just send someone to call me."
After Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, he turned and walked out.
Standing outside the door, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes flowed with deep guilt, and then turned into determination.
"Master's wife, don't blame me, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is really too important. It's best for any family in Konoha not to be involved with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."
Uzumaki Takumi and Uzumaki Kushina have too deep a relationship with the Senju clan, and Uzumaki Shura's personality is not suitable, so he can only choose Uzumaki Hina.
In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen just doesn't want to see the Senju clan prosper again.
