(Amegakure)
A bright smile came on her face as she ran towards him, and before he could even understand what was happening she tackled him down on the water surface while enveloping him in a warm hug.
"Do you really mean it?" asked Kushina, with a hopeful look in her eyes.
But before Naruto could reply, he felt something slipping from his nose, and as he gently put his hand on his nose he noticed it was his own blood.
"It's progressing quite fast..." thought Naruto, with a clear frown etched on his face.
He had not thought about this scenario, since he was supposed to go down with the Akatsuki he had failed to analyze this problem. But now that there had been a change of plans, and he had to find a solution fast.
The Battle with the Edo Tensei was going to be the biggest battle of his life, and he could not afford any screw ups.
Even now he was keeping secrets from everyone, neither Mikasa, Rangiku or anyone in Blacklight knew about this. And neither was Kushina supposed to know...
"I mean it, Kushina" replied Naruto, as Kushina noticed something strange in his eyes.
"Can we really defeat those Edo Tensei? I mean they all are..." said Kushina doubtfully, but was silenced when he placed his finger on her lips.
"Kushina, I couldn't keep my promise to Armin. I'm trash, but all of the people fighting at Osaka are heroes of Konoha. They don't have to become trash like me..." replied Naruto emotionally, and slowly stood up.
"Naruto...:
"Armin's strong will is still alive in them, so the only thing that I can do...help them win this war, no matter the cost"
Kushina quickly stood up and placed her hand on his shoulder, guess it would be a long time before he could forgive himself for what happened at Shuri Castle.
"I'm sure that with such strong will and your Mangekyo, we'll win this war. Your eye is probably the most powerful weapon I have ever seen..."
She watched patiently as he placed his right hand on his eye, as regret was clearly visible in them.
"Let's kick some ass..."
"Kotetsu..."
"I will believe in you...Namikaze Naruto"
"Armin..."
He quickly wiped out the small tear that slipped from his eye and looked at Kushina...
"The shadow of tragedy trails these eyes. It's best if no one ever activates a Mangekyo...but for better or for worse, this eye holds a key as to how I feel about my friends" said Naruto sadly,
"I understand..."
"You ready?" asked Naruto seriously,
"Hai"
"Let's save our friends..." said Naruto calmly, with a small smile on his face.
As Kushina started getting absorbed into the pocket dimension, she felt something inside her while looking at him. Naruto was probably the most complicated person she had ever met...
And yet in the end, he was just a simple boy who loved his friends...
And that's what she loved about him...
Just as Kushina was sucked inside his pocket dimension, he slowly turned around and calmly looked at the person standing in front of him.
"So, you've finally chosen your side..."
