Late at night.
"Mom, go to bed, you're almost falling asleep, why are you still insisting on doing that..."
On the sofa, Liuyun rested his head on Asuka's thigh and chatted with her all night.
"I can sleep anytime, but you're going to go on a mission tomorrow... I don't know when you'll be back."
Asuka gently stroked his forehead, her tone full of reluctance and worry.
"It shouldn't be long..."
Liuyun murmured. In fact, the battle between the Fire Country and the Wind Country lasted quite a long time. After all, one of the five major countries in the ninja world is not comparable to the Rain Country.
"You..."
A knock on the door interrupted Asuka's words, and Liuyun jumped out from the sofa the next moment.
"Uchiha Liuyun, the Hokage asked you to go over!"
Outside the door, the captain of the Anbu said lightly. He was actually accompanied by two Anbu jonin at the moment.
"!!!"
Liuyun was surprised to see this scene. Why did Sarutobi Hiruzen call him over in the middle of the night? Moreover, three elite ANBU jonin came to find him together, which also revealed something unusual.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Liuyun opened the big iron gate and asked casually.
The ANBU captain was silent for a while, then shook his head gently.
"Son, what do they want to see you so late?" Asuka came out of the house at this time.
"It's okay, it should be about tomorrow's expedition, you should go to bed early... Don't stay up late, don't worry about it..."
Liuyun waved his hand helplessly at her, indicating that she should go to bed.
"Well, okay..."
On the way.
Liuyun lowered his head and was thinking about the purpose of the Third Hokage.
The first thing he thought of was about tomorrow's expedition, not the exposure after killing the Cloud Ninja.
He didn't take the killing of the three Cloud Ninja kidnappers to heart. After all, there were only him and Kushina at the scene at that time. He thought that no third party would know what happened, and he didn't know that Uchiha Madara had exposed his affairs through White Zetsu!
Sometimes the improvement of strength will bring a kind of blind self-confidence to people. Although he has not expanded to this point, he subconsciously believes that it is impossible for someone to stare at him for a long time without being discovered.
After all, he has two souls in one, and his spiritual perception is even stronger than that of the Yamanaka clan.
He never expected that Uchiha Madara would target him. He always thought that the other party would focus on Nagato at this moment, and would look for the executor of the "Eye of the Moon" plan when it was almost ready, and finally found Uchiha Obito...
Although he knew that his fame would attract the attention of Uchiha Madara, he did not think that the other party would look down on him, and Nagato was still just a younger brother. He could not awaken the Samsara Eye or collect the tailed beasts without three to five years.
When to start the "Eye of the Moon" plan depends on Nagato's growth rate, and the key is not on the executor, so Liuyun thinks that even if Uchiha Madara might target him, he will not come to plot against him now.
He took it for granted... And originally, Uchiha Madara just wanted to secretly provoke a war between the Fire and Thunder countries, but the addition of Uzumaki Kushina, the container of the Nine-Tails, made him think of planning Liuyun together, so that he went out to make arrangements himself.
Liuyun had no idea that he had been targeted for a long time!
'No, if it was about going to war, he shouldn't have come to me so late... And three ANBU elites came together to pass on the message, I'm afraid something big happened tonight...'
'Could it be that someone really happened to arrive at the scene of the crime, but even if they knew about those dead people, what would it matter? Who can prove that I killed them...'
Liuyun's mind was racing like lightning, he thought of this possibility, and then subconsciously rejected it.
He thought that after killing three insignificant bastards, he could go directly to war the next morning, and no matter what happened in the future, he would not be blamed...
But tonight, the Third Hokage's message was full of weirdness, and Liuyun inexplicably had a bad premonition in his heart.
Inside the Hokage Building.
"Report, Lord Mito refused our request to bring people because it was too late and it was unsafe for Kushina to go out!"
An Anbu ninja reported to Sarutobi Hiruzen the difficult situation he encountered.
The Third Hokage asked him to go to the Senju clan to bring people, but they drove him out without mercy... Due to the noble status of the other party, the Anbu ninja did not dare to force it, so he could only run back in shame.
"And Lord Mito also said that Kushina will stay in the Senju clan in the near future. Konoha must not send ninja missions to her anymore, and must also control those damned cloud ninjas..."The Anbu ninja truthfully explained some of Uzumaki Mito's original words.
It is worth mentioning that Uzumaki Mito also cursed the Third Hokage by name, and cursed him very dirty, but the Anbu ninja subconsciously ignored the dirty words when reporting, and at most just expressed that Uzumaki Mito was very angry now...
Sarutobi Hiruzen was obviously shocked when he heard this, and then he suddenly fell into deep thought.
"It seems that Lord Mito already knows the whole story!" Shimura Danzo expressed his opinion.
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded when he heard this, and he also thought of this.
Uzumaki Mito did not let Konoha take Kushina away, which was obviously very dissatisfied with the inaction of Konoha's senior management.
After all, the Cloud Ninja Mission has been in Konoha for so long, and Konoha can't even keep an eye on them and prevent them from causing trouble. It also allowed the thieves to kidnap the future Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and successfully take him out of Konohagakure.
Where are Konoha's patrol guards? Where are the Anbu ninjas? Where are the Root ninjas? No department is useful at the critical moment?
Uzumaki Mito admitted that she was also responsible for poor supervision, but in her opinion, those high-level officials of Konoha were simply a bunch of incompetent good-for-nothings, trash among trash!
She herself was old, and even her eyes were closed, but those trash of Konoha even made her worry about protecting the future Nine-Tails Jinchūriki.
When her husband Hashirama Senju was alive and her brother-in-law Tobirama Senju was alive and in power, how could anyone dare to kidnap people in the territory of the Senju clan?
Such a thing is simply a shame. Uzumaki Mito even wanted to run to the Hokage Building and question the incompetent Hokage in person.
Now Sarutobi Hiruzen still wants someone to come and take Kushina away. It would be strange if she could still agree...
"Report, Uchiha Ryuyun is here!"
As the voice of the Anbu ninja fell, the next moment Ryuyun walked straight into the Hokage's office.
"I wonder why Lord Hokage wants to see me so late at night?"
Without waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen in front to speak first, Liuyun took the initiative to ask.
"Don't you know why I want to see you? Kushina was abducted, and why didn't you report to me after you killed the Cloud Ninja without authorization?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen asked with a gloomy face, and his tone seemed unusually heavy. Liuyun could clearly feel his suppressed anger.
