Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 74 I don’t believe it!

"Kushina-sama, where is Yu? He hasn't revealed anything since he became the Hokage's assistant. What has he been doing lately?"

"He has not been involved in government affairs recently and should be working on removing the caged bird."

In the training ground, Kushina explained to Yamaru expressionlessly:
"The bird in the cage still has an impact on Yu. Before, Minato announced that he would be the assistant to the Hokage under that situation, and no one could object. But if he went to deal with the affairs directly, it would give him an excuse, so he went to deal with the bird in the cage first."

"I see."

After hearing the explanation, Yaowan wanted to start today's training, but when he saw Kushina's expression, a chill suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart.

No, there's a problem!

Various memories of his time with Kushina warned Yamaru that if he trained now, he would become her punching bag.

What should I do?
It seemed that the other party's expression became like this when Yu was mentioned. Yu just didn't go to work, so he shouldn't offend Lady Kushina.

Is it...

Uchiha Yamaru, who was smart for once, tried to find out: "How about I go and help Hokage with his work?"

"How do you deal with it? You might as well ask Lady Tsunade to help you deal with it."

As he expected, Kushina's expression visibly relaxed.

But Yaowan knew the reason.

Although this political struggle ended in a grand manner, the subsequent impact was not so easy to end.

Some positions cannot be handed over to the previous ninjas to manage, and the top management has been replaced, and various rights need to be handed over, resulting in the Hokage having a lot of affairs to deal with.

As a Hokage bodyguard, he witnessed the Hokage's work scenes firsthand.

There are piles of documents in the Hokage's office that need to be processed by the Hokage. In order to work more efficiently, he even placed Flying Thunder God Kunai at home and in the office. He would go from home to the office to handle work in the morning, and use Flying Thunder God to go directly home in the evening.

I go from point A to point B every day without wasting a single second!

Even when meeting with the daimyo, Minato used Flying Thunder God.

When he returned to Konoha that day, he was not in the team, but went to the capital of the Land of Fire early with the Flying Thunder God Kunai.

After the war, the Hokage will have a talk with the Daimyo no matter what, so it is better to prepare early.

When talking with the Daimyo, the Daimyo can see the Hokage every day, but in fact it is always the Shadow Clone!

The distance between Konoha and the capital of the Land of Fire was not very close, and because Flying Thunder God was ignored, no one thought that it was a shadow clone that would disappear when its chakra was exhausted.

The Hokage would send a shadow clone over there every once in a while... while the real Hokage would be in charge of Konoha's affairs.

It even caused a joke. When Kazuma, one of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas, returned to the capital and wanted to report to the daimyo, he actually learned that the Fourth Hokage, who was still in Konoha, had already met with the daimyo for a few days.

Yaowan wanted to laugh whenever he thought of the other person's expression, although he couldn't laugh anymore after he came back and knew what happened that day. He just felt that he had missed too much...

Yaowan came back to his senses, suppressed all the sadness, looked at Kushina and said: "Lord Kushina, don't worry, I will find someone to help Lord Hokage deal with the affairs."

Lord Minato looks like he's about to die from overwork at work, so it would be strange for Lady Kushina to be happy as his wife.

"Don't bother Tsunade-senpai, I was just saying it casually." Kushina said dryly, but her face was clearly full of anticipation.

If you want to know who is the most leisurely senior executive in Konoha now, it is definitely Tsunade!

She had no idea how the ninja clan managed to communicate with her, but clan leader Fugaku actually took care of everything for her.

It's obvious that the communication between the Uchiha clan and those ninja clans is not very effective, and they have wasted time without any results, but Fugaku is still willing to help. It's really strange.

Tsunade's current life is to get Konoha's money for free every day, go to the casino and lose it all smoothly, and then go back home leisurely to make splitting potions. This is her only job...

No, that's not right. She had "passed by" Tsunade's house before and looked in through the window. What she saw was Shizune with dark circles under her eyes, yawning and grinding some herbs.

Tsunade was fast asleep. When she "passed by" again at night, Tsunade had disappeared from home. When she asked Shizune, she heard that she had gone to the casino again.

Obviously, the previous sleep was to prepare for the night, and the responsibility of making the splitting potion... Tsunade has probably handed it over to Shizune!

Thinking about Tsunade, the consultant who is leisurely all day, and then thinking about Minato Namikaze who is busy until late at night every day, Kushina feels deeply that the world is unfair.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

The difference was so huge that it was hard for her to ignore it, but she had "passed by" it too many times and was too embarrassed to continue "passing by" it.

So, facing Kushina's expectant eyes, Yaowan nodded with difficulty, "I'll try."

As soon as he finished speaking, he used the instant body movement technique to quickly leave here and rushed to where Tsunade might be.

The first stop was Tsunade's house. A young girl opened the door. She had dark circles under her eyes and it was obvious that she was suffering from "oppression", so much so that Yamaru was too embarrassed to ask.

"Are you ok?"

Shizune looked at him sleepily, her voice a little hoarse and slow, "It's...okay, who...are you...looking for?"

Yamaru scratched his head, but still asked, "Is Lady Tsunade here?"

"No, maybe... in the casino." After saying this in a daze, Shizune shuddered and found that the ninja in front of her was about to leave. Suddenly she realized, "Are you Uchiha Yamaru? Lady Tsunade didn't go to the casino today. You need to get permission from the Hokage to enter there..."

Yaowan stopped and listened to Jingyin talking about a place.

……

After being checked by two ninjas at the entrance and having his identity confirmed and permission obtained, Uchiha Yamaru was allowed to enter the basement of Konoha Hospital.

"Tsunade-sama? Tsunade-sama?"

In front of the secret door, Uchiha Yamaru tried knocking on the door and shouted a few times, but got no response, so he frowned.

The cold air coming through the crack in the door made him feel the cold even though he was outside the room.

It looks a bit like a morgue, but the hospital's morgue isn't here...

Is there such a place in the hospital?
If he hadn't asked the Hokage-sama for permission, he wouldn't have been able to come in. What was Tsunade-sama doing?

There won’t be any accidents, right?
Thinking in his mind, he used his shadow clone to push open the door. Seeing him enter safely, he opened his Sharingan and followed him.

The moment he entered the room, Uchiha Yamaru's pupils constricted.

Dead body.

a corpse.

The dead body was placed in the center of the room, covered and preserved by the cold air generated by the room.

Such a scene was not scary for Yaowan, who had seen war scenes, but his body couldn't help but tremble.

Just because that was someone he knew and was familiar with!
The other person's eye sockets were empty and he had lost his eyes, but the familiar face told him that he was not wrong.

The magatama in his eyes began to spin.

At this time, a figure walked out of the darkness and sighed, "If I had known you would come to see me today, I would not have moved him here."

"...Lady Tsunade, what's going on?" Uchiha Yamaru lowered his head and spoke in a low voice.

Tsunade looked at the corpse and said with a complicated expression: "The splitting technique is risky. He was not beside me when he used it, so..."

With bloodshot eyes, Yao Wan gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe it!"
