- It was because of her impulsiveness that I made this decision, - Uzumaki waved his hand dismissively, returning to the collection, - I bet without a scandal, the case would not do without a scandal and in half an hour the whole village will be aware of my return home.
- I guess so," I had to agree with her words.
- Maybe after the change of Hokage it's worth it," Mito agreed with my point of view after a short silence.
- I shouldn't be mentioned," I asked her, "Kushina-chan's angry enough as it is.

- Hey, I'm much better than her! Besides, anyone in my shoes wouldn't be able to resist," I was a little offended at such a comparison.
Once I was in a safe place, I laughed for half an hour at the mere memory of Kushina's knee-high bald, glistening head before I was able to calm down.
