Chapter 77: Family, More Reliable than the Will of Fire

 "Hoooooo... Land of Water! Hoooooo... Moby Dick! Hooooo... Building a big ship! Hooooo..."

 When Naruto finished his brutal training with Observation Haki.

 He was again on the road, carrying three hundred kg of money on his back.

 This extremely hard special training made the five-year-old Naruto visibly muscular.

 Naruto, drenched in sweat, felt extremely tired.

 But in order not to delay the progress to the Land of Water, he could only grit his teeth and keep moving forward.

 Every step was a challenge for him.

 The key point is.....

 When he was undergoing this combined strength and endurance training, Whitebeard did not allow him to use chakra.

 He could only rely on physical strength for special training.

 This was even more difficult!

 Fortunately, Naruto had been persisting in this special training for almost two months. Regardless of how strong he was at just five years old, his willpower was already stronger than many ninjas.

 And Naruto's actions actually motivated others.

 Especially since the reason he accepted this masochistic special training was to protect what he considered his "family".

 Karin, who also considered Naruto as family...

 She was also quietly learning from Naruto's actions.

 Of course,

 The only "cheat" Karin had was the Uzumaki bloodline, and she naturally fell short compared to Naruto who had a bunch of "cheats".

 She initially imitated Naruto and carried dozens of pounds of weight. However, less than an hour later, even the Uzumaki bloodline was of no use.

 Karin honestly reduced the weight by half.

 Finally, she could hold on a little longer.

 Even her own daughter was working so hard. As a mother, Uzumaki Fuushi was also talking with Kakashi along the way.

 They were not chatting idly.

 They were discussing sealing techniques!

 Uzumaki Fuushi inherited some sealing techniques from the Uzumaki clan, but she spent her life either wandering or being used as a tool by the Kusagakure Village. She hardly had any chance to pick up her inheritance.

 Now,

 She finally got rid of her wandering fate.

 She also got rid of her fate as a tool.

 In order to be able to help Whitebeard and to play a small role in the Whitebeard Pirates family,

 Uzumaki Fuushi decided to ask Kakashi for advice.

 And pick up sealing techniques again!

 "Gurararararara! What a spirited bunch of fools!" Looking at the efforts of Naruto, Karin, and Fuushi, Whitebeard seemed to be back in those days at sea.

 His sons at sea were also so hardworking when they were on the ship.

 Their efforts were not only for their own dreams,

 But also to protect their family's dreams without reservation.

 To escort their own and their family's dreams!

 This is.....

 what the Whitebeard Pirates are all about!

 As Whitebeard walked, he suddenly asked, "Karin, Fuushi, what are your dreams? What do you want to do? What kind of future do you hope for yourselves?"

 His words left both Karin and Fuushi stunned.

 Their dreams?

 Karin, who was about the same age as Naruto, was more innocent.

 Or rather more naive.

 After carrying thirty kilograms of weight for half a day and being so tired that her little face was pale, Karin, who was completely relying on the Uzumaki bloodline, thought seriously for a few seconds.

 Then she replied to Whitebeard, "Pops, I want to be with you guys forever! I want to become an excellent female ninja!"

 Although Uzumaki Fuushi was a very young mother.

 She was still an adult after all.

 She thought for a full half minute before she took a deep breath and said firmly,

 "Since the destruction of the Uzushiogakure Village, my life has been like a walking corpse. It wasn't until the appearance of Karin, until your appearance and Naruto's appearance, that my world began to see rays of light that 'woke me up'."

 "I don't have a dream of my own. The only thing I want to do is to protect Pops's dreams, protect Karin's dreams, protect Naruto's dreams... or rather, protect the dreams of my current family and future family."

 "And the future I hope for is that no family member will be missing. Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will make sure that the Whitebeard Pirates will not lose a single family member!"

 When an adult who has experienced countless darkness talks about dreams.

 The topic will inevitably become heavier.

 Whitebeard suddenly put his finger on Uzumaki Fuushi's head. Under Uzumaki Fuushi's astonished and surprised gaze.

 Whitebeard laughed and said, "Stupid daughter, how can the children of the sea not have their own dreams? Don't let this twisted Ninja world affect your heart!"

 His words left Uzumaki Fuushi completely stunned.

 If...

 Ignoring all kinds of darkness in the Ninja world.

 What does she want to do?

 Or rather, what was her dream before she took refuge in the Kusagakure Village when she was displaced?

 In a trance.

 ——"Damn it! Why did they slaughter our Uzumaki clan? Why didn't they even let go of civilians? Who are you guys?"

 ——"Fuushi... promise mom, leave the Uzumaki Village and live on! Strive to live on! Live on for the Uzumaki!"

 ——"Damn it! How did I get pregnant? I was just playing around. Don't cling to me! The child in your belly is the future of the Uzumaki clan? Don't joke around! The bloodline of the Uzumaki clan only brings about disaster!"

 ——"Mom, do I have other relatives?"

 One scene after another, one sentence after another emerged in her memory. Unconsciously, tears streamed down Uzumaki Fuushi's face.

 She originally had a "self".

 She is Uzumaki Fuushi...

 Her surname is Uzumaki!

 "Pops!" Uzumaki Fuushi suddenly looked up, her expression even more serious than before. To put it abstractly, her eyes seemed to have light: "I want... I want to revitalize the Uzumaki clan! I want the Uzumaki clan to have a 'voice' that cannot be ignored in the ninja world again! I want to avenge the Uzumaki clan!!"

 "Gurararara! This is my daughter!"

 The ambition carried by Uzumaki Fuushi's explosive dream.

 It reminded Whitebeard of many female pirates at sea.

 Their dreams and ideas were different, some were even very strange, but they all had one thing in common - they were never confused and had a very independent self.

 Uzumaki Fuushi lacked this before.

 Now,

 She has it!

 Kakashi, who was on the side, couldn't help but twitch his eyelids when he saw this change in Uzumaki Fuushi. He had a strange feeling that Whitebeard seemed to be deliberately stirring up the 'ambitions' of his children.

 Just one Whitebeard was already giving Konoha a headache.

 If Whitebeard cultivated a group of children whose "ambitions" were not inferior to his, or even surpassed him...

 What would the vast ninja world become?

 But...

 He had to admit.

 Whitebeard was indeed a qualified father, and the Whitebeard Pirates were indeed a qualified family.

 "Stick to your own dreams... protect your family's dreams, is this your ninja way? Whitebeard..."

 Kakashi murmured to himself.

 For some reason, he felt that this seemed more reliable than the "Will of Fire".

 At least...

 It's not empty talk.
