XX-level Hokage

The sisters of the future.

Tian and Hanabi simply thought that Mashiro hoped they could get along well.

Shiro and Yukito didn't care much. Both of them had suffered hardships since childhood, making it difficult for them to get along with others in a friendly, sisterly way.

Tehan and Tayuya seemed to have a different opinion. They looked at each other and then their faces inexplicably turned red.

After dinner, Yukito went straight to the third floor, and Shiro also went up to the third floor after saying hello. Tian and Tehan went outside together, seemingly to buy something.

Handan and Duoyou placed the dishes in the kitchen and were just about to wash them when Mashiro came up behind them, gently patted their waists, and whispered, "Let's wash them tomorrow."

Tehan blushed, and Tayuya's face turned even redder, reaching her ears, but for some reason, there was a hint of excitement in her eyes. Mashiro, holding the two of them, went into her room.

Tian entered the villa. She and Hanabi were shopping, but when it came time to pay, Tian realized she hadn't brought her wallet. So she asked Hanabi to leave it there while she ran back to get the wallet.

"Bite? Didn't you find it?" Wei searched his room for a long time but couldn't find the wallet.

"I remember leaving it in the room." Hinata rolled her eyes and began carefully examining every corner of the room. "There!" Despite the eye roll, Hinata spotted the wallet tucked away in a crevice of the cabinet.

"Did it fall in there when we moved the cabinet last time? That's strange," Tian muttered to himself.

Then she picked up her wallet, turned around, and her Byakugan saw through the wall three chakra bodies intertwined. "What is this?" Hinata's face instantly turned red.

She kicked her way to the door, then picked up the key from under the study carpet, opened the study door, and quietly went inside. Then she pressed her ear against the wall.

A charming voice instantly reached Hinata's ears, combined with the scene she saw through her Byakugan. "My sister is with Temari and Tayuya."

The scenes from the manga Hinata had been secretly reading began to replay in her mind. She touched the wall, listened to the sounds coming from within, and watched the blurry images. Her sister.

Hinata sat on the ground.

One hand covered her mouth, while the other reached towards her absolute territory.

"Sister, sister~, my dear sister." The floodwaters rushed out of the bus.

Hinata bit her hand tightly, and soft whispers escaped from between her teeth. "Sister, you're so slow," Hanabi said, looking at Hinata who had returned with her wallet. "What's wrong?" Hinata asked, snapping out of her daze.

"It's nothing, I just feel like you're acting a little strange," Hanabi said somewhat suspiciously. Hinata seemed distracted after returning, and her face was quite red.

"Hanabi, don't use your Byakugan carelessly in the villa anymore," Hinata suddenly said. "Why?" Hanabi was a little confused; she didn't understand why Hyakki would suddenly say that.

"Everyone in the villa has their own privacy. We live together every day, and it wouldn't be good if I saw something I shouldn't with my Byakugan," Hinata said, her eyes darting around.

"Okay, I understand." Hanabi nodded, but she still felt something was off about Hinata. Back at the villa, Mashiro was sitting alone in the living room drinking tea.

"Where are Tehan and Tayuya-neechan?" Hanabi asked, looking around.

"They're a little tired today, so they've gone back to sleep. Hanabi, you should go back to sleep too, you have class tomorrow." Masahiko said with a smile. "Okay, big sister," Hanabi obediently replied.

"Sister, I'm going to the study. I need to check on something," Hinata said, and before Mashiro could speak, she quickly ran upstairs.

"That's strange," Mashiro shrugged and continued drinking his tea.

In the study, Hinata looked at the marks on the floor, her face flushing again. She needed to act quickly and clean up the mess.

Chapter 78: Uchiha Izumi

In the laboratory of the Sound Village, Mashiro looked at the experimental subject in the container. Under the observation of her Byakugan, she discovered that the chakra in the experimental subject's body was rapidly condensing, a phenomenon that had never been seen before.

Suddenly, a "crack" was heard, the glass of the container shattered, and the green nutrient solution poured out, wetting Zhenbai's shoes. "Cough cough cough, I'm... still alive?" Quan lay on the ground, coughing violently, then moved his hands, somewhat incredulous. Then Quan looked around.

"Where am I? How did I get here?"

Then, seeing the black hem of Mashiro's robe directly in front of him, he looked up and saw Mashiro in her entirety. "Hundred Eyes? Is she from the Hyuga clan?"

Quan looked at the girl, a hint of confusion in his eyes. "What is she saying?"

Izumi looked at Mashiro, who seemed to be saying something, but her mind was in complete chaos, and she was feeling extremely dizzy.

Izumi fell straight forward, and just as she was about to hit the ground, Mashiro bent down and caught her. That familiar scent was Izumi's last thought before she fainted.

Mashiro looked at the experimental subject in her arms with some helplessness. She was introducing herself when the experimental subject broke through the wall, but the experimental subject seemed not to hear her, and kept looking around before inexplicably fainting.

Looking at the face that was exactly the same as Izumi's, Mashiro sighed and muttered to herself, "It seems that I can't ignore this time."

Then Mashiro took off his robe and covered the test subject with it, then carried her and disappeared into the shadows. Izumi gently opened her eyes and looked at the unfamiliar ceiling.

"Was I dreaming? Where am I?" Quan Zong felt dizzy and disoriented.

Just then, a surprised female voice came from beside the bed: "You're awake!"

Quan turned her head and saw a red-haired girl with a youthful appearance; a slightly protruding canine tooth added a touch of playfulness and cuteness.

"If she were a little more arrogant, she would probably suit Zero's taste perfectly," Izumi thought to herself. "Excuse me, where is this place? And who are you?" Izumi asked with a smile.

"My name is Tayuya, and this is the Senju clan's territory in Konoha," Tayuya said. After these past few days, she had figured out some things about Konoha, including where she was currently living.

"The Senju clan?" For some reason, Izumi had a bad feeling. "May I ask who the current Hokage is?" Izumi asked softly.

"It's Lady Tsunade," Tayuya replied. Because it was the Senju clan's territory, Tayuya would sometimes run into Tsunade when she went out. Although Tsunade hadn't made things difficult for her out of respect for Mashiro, Tayuya was still very nervous every time.

"Is that so? Tayuya, have you ever heard of someone named Uchiha Zero?" Izumi asked, head bowed. Tayuya shook her head; she truly hadn't heard of him.

“Okay, I’m feeling a little unwell and would like some peace and quiet.” Izumi looked up and smiled at Tayuya.

"Then you should rest well, I'll go out first," Tayuya said. Although it was a little strange, she could only do as Mashiro said, since she was told to take good care of this person.

After Tayuya left, Izumi stared at the unfamiliar ceiling, then quickly got up, opened the window, and jumped out. Walking through the streets of Konoha, looking at the incredibly familiar buildings and the bustling residents, Izumi was somewhat disoriented. "Where...am I?"

Izumi wandered aimlessly through the streets until she reached the vicinity of the Hokage's office. Looking up at the Hokage Rock in the distance, Izumi's expression became dazed again.

Hashirama Senju. Mikazuki Senju. Hiruzen Sarutobi. Minato Namikaze. Tsunade Senju.

Everyone who should be there is there, except for that guy.

Izumi finally realized that she had appeared in a world without Uchiha Zero.

Recalling the events surrounding Uchiha Zero, Izumi felt dizzy again, as if her soul was not suited to this world.

"Are you alright? Do you need to go to the hospital?" A very magnetic female voice came from behind Quan. Quan turned around and saw a woman with black hair and red eyes, who was incredibly sexy.

“Sister Hong?” Quan said unconsciously. “?” Hong asked, puzzled.

She had just returned from handing over her mission when she saw a black-haired girl not far away. The girl seemed to be in a bad state, so she kindly asked her what was wrong. To her surprise, the girl addressed her as "Sister Hong" in an incredibly affectionate manner.

"Do you know me?" Hong asked with a smile.

"I don't know you, but I've heard of you. You're the famous genjutsu ninja from Konoha, Kurenai Yuhi. You have a very friendly aura, so I couldn't help but call you Kurenai-nee. I hope you don't mind." Seeing Kurenai's reaction, Izumi knew that Kurenai didn't recognize her, so she changed the subject.

Having spent so much time with Zero, Izumi has unknowingly developed the ability to lie sincerely.

“I don’t mind. This way of addressing me makes me sound younger. Are you alright? You didn’t seem to be feeling well just now.” Izumi’s eyes and expression made Hong have no doubt about her words, and she said with a smile.

"My health has been poor since I was a child. I've always been weak and sickly. Sister Hong, could you take me home?" Quan looked at Hong and said pitifully.

"Of course, I'm free right now." Hong smiled and took Quan's hand. For some reason, the girl in front of her gave her a familiar feeling.

"My name is Izumi Uga, you can call me Izumi, Kurenai." Izumi said with a light laugh. (The ability of Zero's left Mangekyou Sharingan is called Uga.) "Okay, Izumi."

Hong held Quan's hand and walked forward according to Quan's instructions.

"Izumi, is this your home?" Kurenai asked, looking at the Uchiha clan's sign in the distance with a strange expression. "What's wrong?" Izumi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"After Itachi Uchiha wiped out the Uchiha clan, only Sasuke Uchiha remains. Most of the buildings on the Uchiha clan's land have been confiscated. Izumi-chan, are you sure you're not lost?" Kurenai asked patiently.

Fire Clan Night! Izumi's face turned pale instantly. In her world, there was also a Fire Clan Night, but due to the intervention of Zero and the Third Hokage, some Uchiha clan members survived. Later, after Zero became the head of the Uchiha clan, he began to implement reproductive measures, so the Uchiha clan members gradually began to recover.

In this world, Izumi subconsciously believed that the Uchiha clan would still exist. Now it seems that without Zero's intervention, Itachi would indeed have wiped out the entire Uchiha clan.

"Quan, what's wrong?" Hong asked, looking at Quan's suddenly pale face.

"It's nothing, I really did get lost. When you told me this was the Uchiha clan's territory, I got a little scared," Izumi explained. "I see. What happened to the Uchiha was indeed a tragedy," Kurenai nodded outwardly, but her doubts remained.

“But if I remember correctly, my home should be nearby, Sister Hong, let’s go,” Quan said with a light laugh. Hong nodded and followed Quan.

"Sister Hong, do you have someone you like?" Quan suddenly asked on the way.

Kurenai was taken aback by Izumi's question. Asuma and Uchiha Zero flashed through her mind, before finally settling on Mashiro's face. She shook her head and said, "Unfortunately, no. Perhaps my time hasn't come yet."

This puzzled Quan somewhat. According to her, if Zero didn't exist in this world, then Kurenai should be with Asuma, since Zero had taken Kurenai from Asuma.

It seems that even without Zero, Asuma still wouldn't win Kurenai's heart. In the end, Izumi brought Kurenai to the Senju clan's territory.

"Is this really the place?" Kurenai asked again, puzzled. Putting aside why Izumi would live in the Senju clan's territory, the distance between the Uchiha clan's territory and the Senju clan's territory was almost half a Konoha. How could she have gotten lost like this?

Hong's doubts deepened.

Upon entering the clan's territory, Quan led Hong to the villa she had climbed out of the window.

"Sister Hong, this is my home. Thank you for bringing me back." Quan's voice was gentle and soft, and it always had a calming effect on people.

Kurenai looked at the villa in front of her. As one of Konoha's Jonin, she naturally knew that this villa was Mashiro's residence. When Mashiro moved here, many people came to visit or send their blessings, and Kurenai herself also gave a gift.

"Izumi, do you know Hinata Mashiro?" Kurenai asked earnestly.

Quan gently shook her head, glancing at Hong's earnest gaze. Although she desperately wanted to say she knew her, she truly didn't. "Oh, I'll take you inside," Hong said.

Izumi knew that Kurenai was now completely suspicious, but there was nothing she could do. Izumi had no chakra left in her body, and she could barely even activate her Sharingan.

The two entered the villa. In the living room, Tehan stood looking helpless, while Tayuya sat dejectedly on the sofa. "If all else fails, we should just go and notify Mashiro. It's really hard for us to find someone like her," Tehan sighed.

“No, absolutely not. Give me a little more time. I’ve already sent a clone to look for her. She has no memory and isn’t familiar with Konoha. News should come back soon,” Tayuya said.

Just then, Quan and Hong walked in one after the other. "You!"

Upon seeing Izumi, Tayuya was incredibly excited and rushed over to hug her. "Where have you been? Are you alright?" Tehan asked with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine. I just got lost by accident, and I'm so grateful to Sister Hong for bringing me back." Although she didn't know why these two people cared about her so much, Quan was still very grateful.

"Thank you so much, Ms. Kurenai." Tayuya said gratefully. As Hinata's teacher, both Tayuya and Teihan knew Kurenai.

"It's nothing. Now that Izumi is home, I'll go back too." After confirming that Izumi was indeed staying here, Hong turned and left. After Hong left, Tehan and Tayu also pulled Izumi to sit on the sofa and began to ask her why she had run away.

"Excuse me, do you two know me? I suddenly appeared in a place and got a little scared, so I secretly ran away," Quan said innocently.

"We don't know you. You are our master, the owner of this villa, brought here by Lady Mashiro. She told us you are a..."

"We'll take good care of you, you who have lost your memory." Temari and Tayuya exchanged a glance, then Temari said.

“Amnesia? Come to think of it, I really don’t remember anything except my name, which is why I was so scared,” Izumi said softly.

"It's alright, Master will help you regain your memories," Tayuya reassured Kanzumi. According to Tayuya's understanding, since Shiro brought this girl to the villa, he must have taken a liking to her, so naturally he would help her regain her memories.

“My name is Izumi Uka, that’s the only thing I remember,” Izumi said.

"My name is Tayuya, and this is Temari. Don't worry, we'll take good care of you," Tayuya said softly.

Shouhan watched the two of them from the side, his expression somewhat strange. "Then I'll leave it to you," Quan said with a smile.
