69. Chapter 69 Yagyu and Yuhi Kurenai
Chapter 69 Yagyu and Yuhi Kurenai
Just like the Nine-Tails Rebellion, after the Konoha Collapse Plan was over, the atmosphere of the village was full of depression and sadness.
Fortunately, the Nine-Tails Rebellion happened twelve years ago, so Konoha reacted quickly and did not cause too many villagers to be hurt. The most deaths were those ninjas who fought against the Sand Ninja and the Sound Ninja.
However, the Ryuchidong Snake summoned by the Sound Ninja still destroyed a large number of buildings. If the reconstruction is not done with the help of ninjutsu, it will probably take a long time to repair.
But these are actually nothing. The biggest loss of Konoha in this incident is that they have lost the Third Hokage forever.
The Five Kage are the backbone of the five major ninja villages. The sacrifice of each Kage will reduce the morale of the village to the lowest level.
If a new Kage is not selected quickly, the village will easily fall into panic.
Those clients will also question and distrust the strength of this village.
So just as the Konoha collapse plan was over, the news spread in the Land of Fire, and the daimyo immediately sent people to discuss with the elders of Konoha, asking them if they had any candidates for the fifth Hokage.
Of course, these are all later stories.
The next day, the sky above Konoha was covered with dark clouds, and there were white lights flashing in the heavy clouds, and the sound of muffled thunder sounded from time to time.
The rain was already brewing.
In the Yagyu family, Yagyu walked out in a black long gown and trousers.
Outside the door, the three Hinata girls who were waiting for Yagyu were also wearing black long gowns and trousers.
In their hands, they also held a bunch of white chrysanthemums.
The faces of the three girls were no longer smiling as usual, and were full of seriousness.
After leaving home, the four Yagyu people walked towards the place where the memorial service was held.
Along the way, the four Yagyu people saw many people wearing the same clothes as them.
There were men and women, ninjas and civilians.
They all went to the memorial service to bid farewell to the Third Hokage and the sacrificed ninjas.
Boom!
Clatter…
As soon as Yagyu and his companions arrived at the memorial service venue, lightning suddenly flashed in the sky, and heavy rain fell with thunder.
The rain curtain enveloped Konoha.
After lining up to present the white chrysanthemums, Yagyu and his companions stood at the back of the team to mourn.
Some people were crying with their heads down, and some had no expression on their faces.
The rain poured on everyone, causing these expressionless people to not be able to tell whether the water on their faces was rain or tears.
The sad atmosphere made people feel very depressed.
Even if Yagyu was not sad at all, he was affected by the atmosphere and felt very heavy in his heart.
Fortunately, the memorial service ended quickly, and Yagyu and his companions dispersed and went home on the spot.
Affected by the atmosphere and the heavy rain, the three Ino girls did not invite Yagyu to play or go to Yagyu’s house for a party.
I’m afraid they won’t be able to recover in a few days.
After the memorial service, the villagers began to build the village. The top leaders also discovered the situation of the Hokage Building and Tenzo, and have been investigating the mysterious man during this period.
However, after seeing that no important ninjutsu scrolls were lost in the forbidden library, and the most important seal book was not stolen, they could only give up temporarily because they couldn’t find the mysterious man.
Compared to searching for the mysterious man, choosing the fifth generation Hokage is now the most important thing for Konoha.
Utatane Koharu and Mitomon En found Jiraiya as soon as possible, hoping that he could become the fifth generation Hokage of Konoha.
As a disciple of Sarutobi Hiruzen and the teacher of the fourth generation Hokage, Jiraiya is the best candidate for the fifth generation Hokage in terms of both strength and status.
In this regard, Jiraiya certainly chose to refuse.
However, in this situation, he couldn’t refuse it just because he wanted to.
Faced with the pressure from Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En, Jiraiya, like in the original novel, said someone who was more suitable to succeed the Fifth Hokage than him.
Hearing that Jiraiya could find Tsunade and had a way to persuade Tsunade to come back and succeed the position of Hokage, Utatane Koharu and Mitokado En were silent for a few seconds, and then chose to nod.
In Konoha now, the only candidate who could be more suitable to become Hokage than Jiraiya is Tsunade, the granddaughter of the First and Second Hokage.
Submitting the names of Jiraiya and Tsunade, the daimyo would definitely choose Tsunade.
Nothing else, this is the gold content of Konoha’s orthodoxy!
So, Jiraiya prepared to bring Naruto with him that day, went out of the village to look for Tsunade.
On this day, Yagyu got up early, washed and had breakfast, and came to the door of Yuhi Kurenai’s house.
Knock, knock…
The sound of knocking on the door rang out, and Yuhi Kurenai quickly opened her door.
Looking at Yagyu in front of her, Yuhi Kurenai, who seemed to have just woken up, yawned and said, “It’s Yagyu, come in!”
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the living room.
However, she didn’t notice that Yagyu behind her rubbed his nose, looking a little embarrassed.
There was no way, Yuhi Kurenai really didn’t treat him as an outsider. Maybe because she had just woken up, Yuhi Kurenai was only wearing a red suspender pajamas, revealing her shoulders, collarbones and delicate back, and the hem of her skirt just covered her hips. Her ivory-white long legs were like magnets, attracting people’s attention involuntarily.
“Ahem…”
Yagyu closed the door, changed into guest slippers at the entrance, sat down on the sofa in the living room, looked at Xihi Hong in the kitchen, and coughed to remind him: “Teacher Hong, isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you to wear this dress in front of a man?”
”Wow… When did you become a man when you were twelve years old?”
Xihi Hong brought out a glass of milk, deliberately shook the glass in front of Yagyu, and teased: “Besides, have you forgotten what the nickname of our eighth class is? When you are twenty years old and can drink with the teacher, you can say this again! Now drink your milk, little brat.”
Looking at Yagyu with a full forehead of black lines, Xihi Hong walked into the bathroom happily and began to wash and change clothes.
Yagyu’s mouth twitched slightly.
Although his height was about the same as Xihi Hong, only a few centimeters shorter than Xihi Hong in high heels, his age was always a flaw and could not be refuted.
Picking up the milk, Liu Sheng took a sip.
For the sake of growth, he insisted on drinking a glass of milk every day, and for the first time, he felt that this thing was really annoying.
”Tell me, what’s the matter with you coming to see the teacher so early?”
Yuhi Kurenai quickly finished washing up, changed into her usual ninja clothes, poured herself a glass of milk, and sat opposite Liu Sheng and asked.
Yagyu straightened his face and said, “I came here today to ask you, Mr. Hong, to recommend someone to join Konoha.”
Hearing this, Yuhi Kurenai’s face became serious. She looked at Yagyu and asked, “Is she from another village that you met during the Chunin Exam?”
”Yes.”
Yagyu nodded and told Karin about her life story: “She is a Genin from Kusagakure who I met during the second exam. She is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan.”
”A descendant of the Uzumaki clan, are you sure?” Yuhi Kurenai’s beautiful eyes widened and she looked at Yagyu in surprise.
“It’s true. I’m very good at history. The book says that the Uzumaki clan was an ally of Konoha in both the Warring States Period and the Ninja Village Period, and a distant blood relative of the Senju clan.”
Yagyu said with certainty: “I felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy with her. When I rescued her, she happened to be in a coma. When I treated her, I found that there were many tooth marks of different shapes and sizes on her arms. This is the unique healing ability of the Uzumaki clan – physical healing.”
”Is she red-haired?”
”Yes.”
”Then the possibility that she is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan is indeed very high.”
Yuhi Kurenai nodded, and suddenly said: “Teacher can be her recommender, but teacher wants to remind you of one thing, that is, outsiders who want to join Konoha must accept torture. The review of the Ministry of Inquiry is a necessary procedure to prevent enemy spies from infiltrating Konoha, even if she is really a descendant of the Uzumaki clan. ”
”I know, she accepted it.”
”It seems that you are in contact often, is she in Konoha now?”
”No, she is in Tansho Street in the Land of Fire.”
Yagyu shook his head and said honestly: “The Kusagakure Village has always used her as a medical tool, and this time she came to Konoha to participate in the Chunin Exam. I found out that she is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan. After learning about her experience, I secretly helped her leave Konoha and asked her to wait for me in Tansho Street to avoid diplomatic troubles for the village.”
”Yes, your decision is very good.”
Yuhi Kurenai did not blame Yagyu for his self-assertion, but instead expressed recognition and praise for his approach.
When it comes to diplomatic events, it is not something that these ninjas can decide.
If a descendant of the Uzumaki clan is found outside, it will be completely different.
As an ally of the Uzumaki clanFriends, they have the responsibility of helping the descendants of allies in Konoha.
As long as it is confirmed that the other party is really a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, and the interrogation department does not find any problems, then they will have done a great job by bringing back the descendants of the Uzumaki clan.
So, Yuhi Kurenai asked: “So you came here today, are you planning to let the teacher go with you to find her?”
”Yes, after all, I am just a Genin, and it is difficult to get a certificate to leave the village.”
”Don’t come here, seeing that you are so familiar with her, I guess you sneaked out often in the past month.”
Yuhi Kurenai rolled her eyes at Yagyu and teased: “Your Phantom Instant Body Technique, is it not like this that you practiced it?”
”What Phantom Instant Body Technique?” Yagyu looked ‘confused’.
“It’s the move you used to defeat Nara Shikamaru.”
”Oh, teacher, that move you’re talking about. Its principle is the combination of the Naraku clone you taught me and the lightning chakra stimulation method to form a special instant body.”
”I almost believed it. Last time you said that Kuroki Raiga was immobilized by your Golden Binding Technique, but the teacher wants to bring back his head. Why are you panicking?” Yuhi Kurenai looked at Yagyu as if you were going to make it up.
”Uh…”
Looking at Yagyu who was speechless, Yuhi Kurenai suddenly chuckled and said, “Okay, okay, the teacher knows your identity. There must be a lot of inheritance hidden in your family. Ninjas cannot easily reveal their information. It’s a good thing that you are so cautious.”
”Hehe… Then I’ll trouble Teacher Hong to come with me.”
Seeing that Yuhi Kurenai seemed to have misunderstood something, Yagyu didn’t say anything more. He scratched his head and smiled.
“Okay, since I can’t do any missions during this period, I can just go out and relax.”
Xiu Ri Hong stood up, her eyes full of anticipation.
