Chapter 208 - Chapter 208: Spirit-Nurturing

As for the thing inside Kurama Yakumo's body, Rengoku was very clear about it, at this moment only frowned and reminded with a sentence, "Heh, if you stop your daughter again, you and your wife will both be killed."

"If you don't want Yakumo to become an orphan, then better go look for Orochimaru soon."

Kurama Murakumo heard Rengoku's words, his expression instantly turned pale, and in a flash, countless questions ran through his mind.

"Why…"

Rengoku just bought the candied hawthorn and walked toward the clothing store, completely ignoring Kurama Murakumo.

To Rengoku, talented children were all his targets.

But whether their fathers lived or died didn't matter, he had already given Murakumo a warning.

If Kurama Murakumo didn't believe it, then he was simply a man who deserved to die.

Kurama Murakumo's face kept changing. What someone like Rengoku said weighed far more than what ordinary people said.

He looked at Kurama Yakumo. Yakumo had also been frightened just now, and now her face was full of confusion.

Suddenly, in Kurama Murakumo's mind, a vague suspicion arose.

He quickly held Yakumo and came to Rengoku's side, "Elder Rengoku, did you see something?"

Rengoku stared carefully at Yakumo for a few seconds, "It's gestating."

"If you continue to pressure Yakumo, the hatching time will speed up."

What Rengoku said sounded vague and incomplete to others, but in Kurama Murakumo's ears, it caused a full-body shock.

Because among the geniuses of the Kurama clan, there would be a portion of people who, due to their strong mental power, would gestate some special things.

But not everyone could control them well, it was very easy to cause disaster if mishandled.

According to Yakumo's current age, it was very unlikely she could control it.

So, everything Rengoku said just now was true.

Kurama Murakumo had no choice, this was a matter of life and death. He could only say, "Elder Rengoku, could you introduce us to Orochimaru-sama?"

Rengoku nodded and said, "Orochimaru is currently unavailable. Come to our clan grounds at nine o'clock tonight."

Kurama Murakumo sighed, only feeling the future was uncertain. He didn't know if this was good or bad for Yakumo, "Thank you, Elder Rengoku. I will be there on time."

"Great! Thank you, Elder Rengoku!", Yakumo, who had recovered, quickly bowed and thanked Rengoku.

Rengoku waved his hand and walked toward the clothing store, as if this matter was just a trivial thing to him.

Kurama Yakumo's ability was still pretty good. I her problem could be resolved, she would be quite useful in the future.

Only, taking the initiative to help and being sought out for help were very different matters.

———

Carrying the bundle of candied hawthorns into the shop, Rengoku saw Gaara had already finished picking clothes and was walking out with a few bags in his hands.

"Take it, eat it yourself," Rengoku pulled out a skewer of candied hawthorn and stuffed it into Gaara's hand.

Gaara took it and softly said thank you.

Now, Gaara still had a round face and round head, far cuter than during his genin days.

"Has Shukaku been bothering your sleep lately?", Rengoku casually asked.

This was actually the most important matter for Gaara.

The strength of the Four Symbols Seal went without saying. Gaara shook his head:

"Ever since I came here, I've never heard his voice again."

"Will he never be able to bother me again?"

Rengoku already had arrangements for Gaara. Upon hearing this, he said to him, "As long as you don't want to, then you won't hear it."

Now that Gaara could sleep, his complexion had improved a lot. Upon hearing this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes. Then he stammered and opened his mouth, "Rengoku-sama… I…"

"Hmm?"

When Rengoku turned his head, Gaara held back for a long time but still said nothing.

"Hahaha, no rush. Say it when you figure it out."

Rengoku didn't try to guess, just gave Gaara a comforting sentence.

"Shishou! We're done shopping!", Before Gaara could speak, Karin's voice came out.

A group of children walked out together, all carrying bags, both large and small.

Back on the road when bringing Kimimaro and Haku, Rengoku had already bought some clothes for them.

But in those rural areas, the choices were few.

Now in Konoha Village, there were many more options. The two of them looked at Rengoku with eyes full of delight.

Since Hotaru came to the Uchiha, this was the first time she had bought so many beautiful clothes, and much of the gloom on her face had dissipated.

Sasuke also carried some things in his hands.

"Since you're done shopping, let's go home," Seeing everyone so happy, Rengoku handed out candied hawthorn skewers to each one.

Finally, he handed the remaining bundle to Kimimaro, "Take it, give it to anyone in the clan who wants some."

Kimimaro nodded and carried it on his shoulder.

"Shishou…", Karin winked at Rengoku and stretched out her hand coquettishly.

Rengoku laughed heartily, took the bags from Karin's hand in one hand, and with the other lifted her onto his shoulder.

Unexpectedly, after staying with the Uchiha for a while, Karin had become more and more lively.

'Looks like not having that childhood experience of being treated like a human blood pack has made her body and mind much healthier.'

"Rinjin, go pay the bill," His hands were full, so he called out, and Rinjin, who was standing by nearby, immediately went to settle the bill.

Rengoku led a group of children and grandly headed home.

At this moment, Karin crouched down and whispered something in Rengoku's ear, and even sneakily glanced at Haku.

Rengoku whispered back, "Clothing style is a personal freedom, it has nothing to do with gender and doesn't matter."

Karin blinked and asked in confusion, "It doesn't matter?"

Rengoku patted Karin, "What kind of life you want to live is up to you."

"In the past, you had no choice, so you weren't happy at all."

"Now that you do have choices, of course you should listen to the voice deep in your heart."

Karin nodded thoughtfully, a smile blooming on her face, "I got it, Shishou."

———

[Nightfall Came]

After Rengoku arranged the study and training content for Karin, Sasuke, and the others, the time was almost nine o'clock.

"Clan Leader, Kurama Murakumo has arrived with his daughter," Not long after, Rinjin came to report to Rengoku.

Rengoku checked the time, it was indeed punctual.

"Go take them to the hospital, have Orochimaru go to the hospital too."

"Yes!"

Only then did Rengoku unhurriedly walk toward the hospital.

By the time he arrived, the Kurama father and daughter were already waiting inside.

"Elder Rengoku."

Rengoku waved his hand signaling to wait, and not long after, Orochimaru came from the lab.

"Orochimaru, come take a look at this child. She's from the Kurama clan."

"Tsunade-sama couldn't find anything wrong with her body. Take a look."

Knowing Orochimaru didn't like small talk, Rengoku went straight to the point.

Orochimaru showed an interested expression and didn't even glance at Kurama Murakumo.

He went straight in front of Kurama Yakumo.

Yakumo didn't know what she had been taught, but although her eyes were full of fear when looking at Orochimaru, she didn't make a sound.

Orochimaru didn't take Yakumo for any machine tests. He just made a few hand seals, then placed his hand on Yakumo's head.

Very quickly, a surprised look appeared on his face, "Spirit-nurturing?"
