Shindai and Minato Namikaze are currently recuperating at the Ninja Hospital.
Jiraiya left to perform a mission on the same day Minato Namikaze woke up.
And Uzumaki Kushina kept her promise and began to take care of Shindai and Minato Namikaze.
Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara also visited Shindai and Minato Namikaze at the Ninja Hospital every day.
Shindai curiously asked about the Rasengan, which Minato Namikaze still called by the unspeakable name 'Halo Popsicle Swirl Jiraiya Dual-Style Orb'.
Minato Namikaze directly told Shindai how to train this technique, without holding back any secrets.
Having obtained the training method for the Rasengan, Shindai planned to try learning it when he returned.
Uzumaki Kushina was peeling fruit for Minato Namikaze and Shindai when Obito, sitting on a chair, curiously asked Shindai: "Shindai, what did you mean by 'Kurama' that day? It seems that after you said it, Lady Kushina, who was about to punch Teacher Minato's head, suddenly stopped her fist."
Kakashi recalled for a moment and then chimed in: "It really does seem like what Obito said. Lady Kushina was completely covered by that dark red Chakra, so her eyes shouldn't have been visible, but at that moment, I seemed to see an expression of disbelief."
Minato Namikaze also began to ponder: "Indeed, if Kushina hadn't paused then, my head might have been knocked off. And it was clear that the guy inside Kushina was distracted at that moment, which gave me the opportunity to resonate with Kushina's Chakra and enter Kushina's consciousness space."
Uzumaki Kushina frowned and said: "If that's the case... when I was in the consciousness space, I could clearly see Kurama's fox face looking very shocked."
Hearing their discussion, Shindai, feeling guilty, buried his head in the blanket and dared not speak.
Uzumaki Kushina pulled away the blanket covering Shindai's face: "Hey, Shindai, since you said it, you must know the reason, right?"
Everyone in the ward looked at Shindai, a total of five people, six pairs of eyes.
Why six pairs of eyes? Because Uzumaki Kushina still had a pair of eyes inside her.
Kurama, once again firmly sealed, stared at Shindai. It wanted to know more than anyone how Shindai knew its name.
Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Shindai simply used his specialty and started to bluff.
"Oh, you guys sure have wild imaginations. You misheard. What I shouted was 'Laba', not 'Kurama'. Isn't the Tailed Beast inside Lady Kushina called the Nine-Tailed? It's really noisy and awful when it shouts, like a horn, so I just shouted 'Nine-Horn'.
Besides, that day was the first time I met Lady Kushina, and also the first time I knew that the Tailed Beast inside Lady Kushina was the Nine-Tailed. How could I know any reason? Maybe the Nine-Tailed glared at me because it heard me curse it, saying it sounded like a horn."
Minato Namikaze and the others felt that what Shindai said seemed to have no problems.
After all, as Shindai said, that day was the first time Shindai met Uzumaki Kushina and the first time he knew about the Nine-Tailed. There was no reason for him to know anything.
It seemed that they might have really misheard.
However, Kurama was staring intently at Shindai through Uzumaki Kushina's eyes.
Kurama was certain it hadn't misheard, nor had Minato Namikaze and the others. Shindai definitely said 'Kurama', not 'Nine-Horn'!
Suddenly.
A phrase came to Kurama's mind.
"The green-eyed boy who playfully calls out the names of the nine beasts."
Kurama gazed at Shindai. He was a boy, but Shindai had black eyes, which didn't fit the green-eyed characteristic.
Kurama was feeling very uncomfortable now. It really wanted to pin Shindai down with a claw and then interrogate him about how he knew its name, and if he knew the names of other Tailed Beasts.
...
Time passed quickly; a week had already gone by.
Ninjas are great; no matter how severe the injury, as long as they don't die, they recover quite quickly.
Shindai and Minato Namikaze's injuries were mostly healed.
Shindai felt that these seven days were like living in paradise.
Lying in bed every day, taken care of by Uzumaki Kushina, he didn't even need to move himself.
Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara visited Shindai and Minato Namikaze at the Ninja Hospital as usual before going to train.
"Lady Kushina, why is the food so bland today!"
"Lady Kushina! I'm so thirsty, I want water!"
"Lady Kushina, please get the scroll from my bedside table and spread it open in front of me!"
"Lady Kushina..."
Uzumaki Kushina, unable to bear it any longer, roared: "Brat! Don't go too far! I said I'd take care of you, not be your servant! And don't think I don't know your injuries are basically healed, so stop it already!"
Shindai said pitifully: "Alright, alright. My life is truly bitter~ Betrayed by my Village, then intercepted by Lord Minato, living a day-to-day existence on the dangerous battlefield before officially joining Konoha, encountering life-threatening dangers several times.
Finally, I joined Konoha and came to Konoha, thinking I was safe, but I almost lost my life again. But it's okay, I don't blame anyone, I just blame my bad luck. Sigh, Lady Kushina, don't overthink it, I'm just simply sighing~"
Several veins bulged on Uzumaki Kushina's forehead, and Minato Namikaze also looked helpless.
Uzumaki Kushina gritted her teeth and said: "Water, huh? Spreading out the scroll in front of you, huh? Just wait!"
Soon, Uzumaki Kushina prepared the water and handed it to Shindai.
Uzumaki Kushina asked with a forced smile: "Do you need me to feed you?"
"Oh, that's too embarrassing, thank you, Lady Kushina!"
Uzumaki Kushina's voice, almost squeezed through her teeth, said: "You're welcome, drink well, and feel free to tell me if you have any other requests!"
Uzumaki Kushina picked up the cup and fed water to Shindai.
Minato Namikaze watched from the side with a pounding heart, fearing that Uzumaki Kushina would smash the cup on Shindai's head.
Minato Namikaze looked at Shindai, who was enjoying himself, with an unspeakable expression. He wouldn't even dare to order Uzumaki Kushina around like that. Warrior! What a warrior!
Kakashi, Obito, and Rin Nohara, who were at the door, heard the entire process and also saw it through the window glass.
Rin Nohara asked, dumbfounded: "That guy Shindai... does he not want to live?"
Kakashi was also stunned by Shindai's audacity: "Who knows, maybe Shindai only wants to live for these few days?"
Obito broke out in a sweat for Shindai: "I have a feeling that after Shindai is discharged, he might immediately return here."
Kakashi's dead-fish eyes looked at Shindai in the ward through the window glass: "Remove 'might'. If he keeps acting like this, he will definitely return here immediately."
Obito, Kakashi, and Rin Nohara were extremely shocked that Shindai dared to order Uzumaki Kushina around.
