Mika Hatake gave her a deadpan expression. "Aunt Yue, you've gone too far."
Yurizuki pouted childishly and waved her hand, saying, "I was just kidding. How could I possibly do such a thing?"
Then, he muttered to himself, "Besides, they wouldn't even look at an old woman like me."
"what?!"
"It's nothing. But Meijia, there's no need for you to ask me about childcare so early."
"Of course! I wonder when Sakumo will be back. I'm really hoping he can get back before the baby is born!"
......
Shirahoshi didn't pay much attention to the conversation between the ladies on the street. He only visited the Yuhi Clan's territory for a short period after each Chunin Exam, and afterwards he would basically just pass by when doing missions.
The clan's gates were closed, but that didn't protect them from ninjas.
Bai Xing glanced around and saw a white brick wall about three people high next to the door. After choosing an angle, he stepped on the wall and jumped and rolled over it in a few moments.
The spot where I landed was next to a sturdy willow tree. I patted the dust off the wall with my hands and looked up to see Xi Ri Liu Yun reading a book in the courtyard.
The spring breeze at the end of February, combined with the sunlight, brushed against the girl's soft skin. Her white dress couldn't hide her beautiful and slender figure. I've known Xi Ri Liu Yun for two years now, and this is the third year.
The child has reached the age of marriage.
The girl heard a slight noise in the courtyard, which made her smile slightly. Pretending not to notice, she continued to maintain her gentle and elegant demeanor, flipping through the small notebook in her hand containing information about the illusion techniques of the Sunset Clan.
"Liu Yun, you look beautiful today."
"What do you want from me?"
Bai Xing walked straight over and offered perfunctory praise, which made Xi Ri Liu Yun grit her teeth in anger. She raised her beautiful eyes, rolled her eyes at Bai Xing, and then threw the notebook in her hand at Bai Xing.
Bai Xing took it casually, and seeing the brand-new notebook in her hand, she didn't open it and asked curiously:
"what is this?"
"It is something very important to our Yuhi clan."
"It's not supposed to be passed on to outsiders. But you saved my uncle, and you saved me too."
Sunset Clouds crossed her arms, turned her head away, her skirt slightly pressed down by her fair elbows, and said haughtily:
"If it weren't for you."
"Our clan of the setting sun may really be coming to an end."
Yuhi Ryuun didn't believe she could shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the Yuhi clan, and at this point in the clan, apart from her talent to become a Jonin, everyone else's potential had already been capped.
Another possibility is that there's Saki's daughter, Kurenai Yuhi, who might offer some hope.
"I see."
Shirahoshi also knows basic illusion hypnosis, illusion breaking, and a D-rank binding technique.
Compared to the operation of C-rank or higher genjutsu, binding techniques simply use the quantity and quality of chakra to instantly overwhelm the victim, thereby making the opponent's body as stiff and unable to move as possible: the genjutsu Orochimaru used on Sasuke during the Chunin Exams.
Hypnotic illusions primarily rely on chakra control, using one's own chakra to invade the opponent's mental consciousness, and leveraging one's powerful chakra reserves and control abilities to precisely interfere with the opponent's state of mind.
Therefore, Shirahoshi is indeed not good at illusion magic. It took her seven days to control Kitada Mana. In the meantime, she deliberately created many chance encounters with her when she was tired after get off work and gave her a lot of psychological suggestions.
Flipping through the small notebook in her hand, Bai Xing's eyes lit up. She thought to herself, "So this is how illusions can be used." A slight smile appeared on her lips.
"Come sit down and watch. What's the point of standing?" Xi Ri Liu Yun said, blushing.
"Ah."
Bai Xing, engrossed in her notebook, didn't notice anything amiss and sat down next to Xi Ri Liu Yun.
At this moment, the young boys and girls, bathed in the gentle sunlight, evoke a sense of warmth and youth.
On the other side of the sea, in the Land of Whirlpools, the situation is quite different.
As a descendant of Ashina Uzumaki, Terunosuke Uzumaki inherited the position of village chief of Uzushiogakure. He then handed it over to his son, Ryota Uzumaki, who is Kushina Uzumaki's father, to become the current village chief.
The architectural environment of Uzushiogakure is in no way inferior to that of Konoha. This is all thanks to the mutual assistance between the two villages during their founding period, which enabled them to establish the Land of Whirlpools.
The capital of the Land of Whirlpools and the ninja village live together in a city called Whirlpool City.
In addition, the daimyo of the Land of Whirlpools was also a member of the Uzumaki clan, but he did not have the talent of a ninja.
However, the trouble that happened half a month ago has finally come to a conclusion.
The Daimyo of the Land of Whirlpools immediately sought out Uzumaki Terunosuke to explain the importance of the matter and to make sure that a way was found to apologize to the people of Konoha.
At this moment, two people stood above a valley in the Land of Whirlpools.
Standing before the cliff, Uzumaki Terunosuke took a deep breath, pacing back and forth, his gaze glancing at the disappointing Uzumaki Ryota behind him:
"Ryouta!"
"Why is this happening?!"
"You actually managed to fool the leader of Uzushiogakure with false information from just two Kirigakure ninjas?!"
"Do you know what kind of trouble this will bring to the Land of Whirlpools?!"
Ryota Uzumaki, who was about to reach the prime of his life (30), lowered his head and dared not refute his father's words.
Just then, a Uzumaki clansman with red hair, wearing the distinctive assassination squad uniform of the Land of Whirlpools, landed on the cliff.
This is one of the few ANBU units in the Land of Whirlpools. They do not leave the Land of Whirlpools to carry out missions. Their main responsibility is to protect the Land of Whirlpools. They are Jonin of the Hidden Whirlpool Village.
"report!"
"A ninja from the Hidden Mist Village of the Land of Water requests an audience."
Chapter 53 is titled "A Youth Full of Regret".
"A ninja from the Hidden Mist Village of the Land of Water requests an audience."
Upon hearing this, Uzumaki Terunosuke laughed in anger. Despite his advanced age and white hair, he still maintained an aura no less than that of an elite Jonin, glaring angrily at the approaching Anbu:
"How dare these ninjas from Kirigakure come to see us? They're practically courting death!"
"Immediately issue my order..."
"Father!"
Ryota Uzumaki's voice interrupted Terunosuke Uzumaki. Feeling the stern look in his father's eyes, Ryota gritted his teeth and continued:
"Father! We've made a mistake! Why don't we listen to what the ninjas from the Land of Water want to do?!"
"Perhaps this is just a misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding?!" Uzumaki Terunosuke covered his forehead, recalling how, half a month ago, a patrol team from the Land of Whirlpools encountered a ship carrying two Hidden Mist ninjas. They accidentally left the ship behind and found a coded scroll on board that Hidden Mist was preparing to deliver to Konoha.
After deciphering the plot, it was discovered that Konoha Village planned to join forces with Kirigakure Village to eliminate the Land of Whirlpools located in the middle of the sea.
Konoha's goal was to gain absolute control over the containers suitable for Jinchūriki.
What Kirigakure needs is the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan, meaning they don't want any members of the Uzumaki clan.
In other words, one needs people as containers, and the other needs to seal the development of the village.
The interception of the intelligence infuriated Ryota Uzumaki, as the intelligence stated that a plan to lure and kill the elite forces of the Land of Whirlpools would be carried out tonight.
Ryota Uzumaki did not tell his father about this, and insisted on observing the situation of the Konoha 2's maritime outpost in the distance from the island's edge.
Coincidentally, that very night, Konoha's naval outpost sent out a distress signal requesting support, completely confirming the authenticity of the intelligence.
Ryota Uzumaki also needs to be mentally prepared to lead his people away.
however.
Everything is a scam.
The next morning, when the Uzumaki clan's team approached the No. 2 sea outpost, they found it littered with the corpses of Konoha ninjas and happened to encounter the Konoha team that had come to investigate the scene.
There were no members of the Uzumaki clan among the corpses at the scene, so before the team could explain, the Konoha ninjas immediately began to attack.
The bodies on that island were also blown to pieces and scattered on the sea.
On the advice of a young genin, the Uzumaki ninja team temporarily retreated, avoiding confrontation with the Konoha ninja whose eyes were blinded by rage. The Konoha ninja also dared not pursue them, fearing that the Uzumaki clan would join forces with the Kirigakure ninja to ambush them.
Half a month later, Ryota Uzumaki realized that he had made a mistake from the beginning, but it was too late. He could only wait for the Konoha troops to arrive and continue to guard against the ninjas from the Land of Water coming ashore.
It wasn't until today that the former village chief, Terunosuke Uzumaki, learned of this news.
Now, hearing that his son had set his sights on a water country that was countless nautical miles away from the Land of Whirlpools, he wished he could beat his son to death on the spot and throw him in front of Konoha Village as an apology.
"Father, what I really mean is, given things have come to this, perhaps we could seek refuge with Kirigakure..."
Snapped--
Ryota Uzumaki's left cheek was slapped away, and Terunosuke Uzumaki showed an expression of anger and disappointment.
For a while.
Uzumaki Kaminosuke slowly opened his mouth:
"The Land of Whirlpools has been able to develop entirely thanks to the friendship between us and Konoha Village."
"If we go to Kirigakure, we will find that we were already fighting fiercely with the Kirigakure ninjas of the Land of Water during the First World War."
"In the past, I was just a lamb to the slaughter."
At this moment, the red-haired youth's eyes were still somewhat dazed. Uzumaki Kaminosuke passed Uzumaki Ryota and arrived in front of the Anbu:
"Let them in."
"Let's hear what the ninjas from the Land of Water want to do first."
"Yes!"
#
Uzushiogakure is located on the outer perimeter of the city walls of Uzushiogakure and is connected to the city center by a large passageway.
A ninja from Uzushiogakure led a small squad of Kirigakure ninjas through the area, eventually arriving at the Uzushiogakure leader's building.
In the conference room, the Kirigakure ninjas didn't take the Uzumakigakure ninjas seriously at all, not even the former village chief, Uzumaki Terunosuke.
"If you hand over some of the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques, we Kirigakure ninja can let you go."
"You don't want to face our Hidden Mist Army alone, do you?"
