Mito guessed that Yasu might have found clues about the Uzumaki clan's survivors, wanting to find that Uzumaki clan survivor to replace Kushina as the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki.
But she didn't immediately agree to him.
She also guessed why he was looking for her, hoping that she would stand on his side in the future.
Because Yasu knew that even if he found the Uzumaki clan's survivor, it would be difficult to get Konoha to give up Kushina.
Moreover... even if he found a replacement, she wouldn't approve of her becoming the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki.
So far, the sealing techniques she taught Kushina were basically all for dealing with the Nine-Tails.
And after having Kushina learn all these sealing techniques, just to have someone else replace her would be to waste all previous efforts.
Plus, without sealing techniques, the chances of losing control after becoming the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki would greatly increase.
A Jinchuriki who loses control is quite dangerous, a disaster for the village, and many people would die by then.
Seeing Mito's silence and conflicted expression, Yasu's heart gradually return to its previous indifference.
Over the years, Mito had been very good to Kushina. So, he thought that she started treated Kushina as her own child, and after finding a way to prevent Kushina from becoming a Jinchuriki, she should happily agree to him.
But he was dead wrong.
Compared to Konoha, Kushina was not important at all.
So, his expression turned cold: "Lady Mito, I apologize for disturbing you late at night. Let's pretend I didn't say anything about this matter, but I would like to ask Lady Mito to agree to another matter, which will not be difficult for you."
Hearing his cold voice and feeling his increasingly strong hostility that was nearly clouding her senses, Mito sighed in her heart and nodded slightly.
Yasu stated his other request: "I hope that starting tomorrow, Kushina will live with me."
Mito looked at him in surprise: "You want Kushina to stay away from me?"
Yasu denied: "That's not the case. Kushina is very lively, and I'm worried that it will affect Lady Mito's rest. Moreover, she is not your child, but just a member of the same clan. She has already disturbed you for so many years, and it would be impolite to disturb you further."
"So, I will take care of her from now on, so she won't bother Lady Mito from now on. And as long as I am alive, I will not let Kushina be harmed."
Mito smiled bitterly: "In your eyes, Yasu, are Kushina and I just members of the same clan? Over the years, I have truly treated her as my own child."
Yasu replied: "But that doesn't change the fact that Kushina is not your child. Your only child is Lady Tsunade. Kushina was just brought to Konoha as a Jinchuriki container from the beginning, and you were just taking care of her in order to train an obedient Jinchuriki container. It's just that in this process; Lady Mito developed some feelings for a container."
His words can be said to be very harsh and unpleasant.
Mito's already wrinkled face had even deeper wrinkles.
She then said in a deep voice: "Yasu, no matter how you see me, how you think of me, my feelings for Kushina are real. You are not me; you cannot deny my feelings for Kushina over the years."
"Moreover, Kushina becoming the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki may not be a bad thing. she has the physique of the Uzumaki clan, plus the sealing techniques I taught her. I believe she will be able to control the Nine-Tails!"
Yasu looked at Mito calmly.
He had actually thought about letting the Nine-Tails become Kushina's help.
But this won't work.
Because the system said that some major events in the future will definitely happen.
The Child of Destiny will definitely be born.
And as the biggest help to the Child of Destiny, the Nine-Tails will definitely be obtained by the Child of Destiny.
Then Kushina Uzumaki, who becomes the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki, will be in constant danger.
That's why he is so determined not to let her become the Nine-Tailed Jinchuriki.
He then said to Mito: "I am not denying Lady Mito's feelings for Kushina. You are indeed a very good elder, and Kushina has been able to grow up thanks to you.
"But Lady Mito has already done a lot for Kushina, and it's time to take a break. Please leave the next things to me. I will take care of her, so please, agree to my request."
Mito rubbed her temples and said helplessly: "Why do you want to stop Kushina from becoming a Jinchuriki, Yasu? Kushina is the best candidate, and it is also the best choice for Konoha."
Yasu said indifferently: "Everyone thinks Kushina is the best Jinchuriki candidate, including you, who she regards as her only relative, but have all of you asked her? Who would want to put a ticking bomb in their body that doesn't know when it will go out of control?"
Mito was stunned and speechless.
His words could not be refuted.
Yasu finally said: "Just like what Lady Mito said, Kushina has grown up. She can't decide some things, but she can decide some things. I will come to pick up Kushina tomorrow."
He then bowed to her and turned to leave directly.
Leaving Mito Uzumaki's residence, Yasu, walking on the street, frowned and his face was very gloomy.
If there was Mito's help, then after finding Karin's mother, Kushina would have a great help in not becoming a Jinchuriki.
Because at that time, as long as Mito Uzumaki says 'She is more suitable to become a Jinchuriki than Kushina', then Konoha would definitely put the weight of the Jinchuriki on Karin's mother.
As for the sealing techniques, even if Mito died, Kushina, who had already learned the sealing techniques, could completely teach her.
As soon as he thought that Mito said that her feelings for Kushina were real, he felt very disdainful in his heart.
In the end, in her heart, Konoha's interests are paramount, even her clan members are not as good as Konoha.
How did the Uzumaki clan, as a very close ally of Konoha, disappear? Because he once learned about the beginning and end of the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools from Orochimaru.
The Uzumaki clan made significant historical contributions to the peace and development of Konoha Village, and was a promoter, practitioner and inheritor of the Will of Fire.
However, due to other clans being afraid of the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques, many countries and clans launched an invasion against the Land of Whirlpools, resulting in the tragic massacre of the Uzumaki Clan. The surviving clan members changed their names and scattered all over the world.
However, Konoha remained indifferent to the Land of Whirlpools' request for help, but chose to wait and see.
In the end, the Uzumaki Clan was annihilated, and no ninjas were sent to support it.
