XX-level Hokage

Mashiro knew very well that the most sensitive part of Yugito's body was her ear.

"Alright, we've seen enough here. Let's go somewhere else," Yugito said, getting up as her body weakened.

Mashiro smiled gently; she naturally had no objection. Soon it was afternoon.

Throughout the morning, Yugito led Mashiro on a tour of what she considered the sights in Kumogakure. As they walked the streets of Kumogakure, the two were looking for a place to eat.

"Um, what would you like to eat?" Yugito asked. "The same as Yugito's is fine," Mashiro replied with a smile.

Yugito nodded slightly and led Mashiro toward one of her usual shops.

Just then, a beautiful woman with fair skin and short, light blonde hair waved at Yugito.

Yugito glanced at Mashiro, but ultimately took her with him and walked over. "What's this?" Samui looked at Mashiro and then asked Yugito.

“She’s an envoy from Konoha. She’s also one of my… well, a friend. I brought her to wander around Kumogakure,” Yugito said. “Hello, my name is Hyuga Mashiro,” Mashiro said, looking at Samui, especially lingering on a certain part of her body, extending her hand and smiling.

“Samui.” Samui also extended his hand. [Name: Samui]

Gender: Female Age: 28 Favorability: 25 Relationship: Strangers

Favorability Reward (50): Swordsmanship Mastery Favorability Reward (90): Photographic Memory

That makes some sense.

"Yugito and I are about to go eat. Samui, would you like to come along?" Mashiro asked softly, withdrawing her hand.

"No need, I still need to go to the library." Samui shook her head and said. "That's a pity." Zhenzi said softly, without trying to persuade her to stay any longer.

"I'll be going now, see you later," Samui said to Yugito, then turned and left. "How cold of her," Mashiro murmured after Samui left.

"She's always been like this—cold and aloof, and taciturn. She only becomes more talkative once you get to know her," Yugito explained softly. "I see. I'm really looking forward to it," Mashiro murmured to herself.

"What?" Yugito asked softly, not having heard Mashiro's words clearly. "Nothing, let's go eat," Mashiro said with a smile.

Yugito was a little puzzled, but didn't pay much attention, and the two went into the restaurant together. After finishing their meal, the two went out onto the street again.

“You’ve seen enough. Let me take you back. Is this the guesthouse?” Yugito said. “No need, you can stay here,” Mashiro said calmly.

Yugito was stunned. She wanted to refuse, but found herself unable to speak. "What, is it not allowed?" Mashiro looked at Yugito and said with a light laugh. "Sure, I'll take you there," Yugito said with a sigh of relief.

Although Mashiro is usually very easygoing and has a gentle personality, she can suddenly become serious at times, and at those times, she becomes extremely imposing.

The feeling of Tao is terrifying, and everyone who knows Mashiro can understand this feeling.

Just now, Yugito noticed the change in Mashiro's tone, which filled her with fear and made her unable to refuse.

The apartment where Yukito lived wasn't far from here; it was about a ten-minute walk. "Kapoo"

Yugito used the key to open the door and led Mashiro inside.

As a highly respected Jonin of Kumogakure, Yugito's apartment is very large and well-decorated, with everything one could need. The only odd thing is that various plush toys are placed in many places in the living room.

Sitting on the sofa, Mashiro picked up a pink pig-shaped cushion and said softly, "I didn't expect Yugito to like these things." Yugito didn't say anything, but made Mashiro a cup of tea.

No one had ever entered Yugito's house before, and she never thought of bringing anyone in. Even the cup she used to make tea for Mashiro was her own, so she naturally arranged the house very casually.

"What brings you here?" Yukito sat down opposite Kihaku and asked softly.

"What, can't you come if there's nothing wrong? If I remember correctly, you were my slave, weren't you?" Mashiro stood up, bent down, reached out and removed Yugito's headband, stroked her forehead, and said calmly.

Yugito gritted her teeth, gently closed her eyes, then opened them and said, "Welcome, Master. May I ask what you need?" "It's rare that Yugito calls me Master. I'm very pleased," Mashiro said with a smile as she sat back on the sofa.

Yugito remained calm. For some reason, seeing Mashiro sitting there, she felt a profound sense of despair that she couldn't resist and could only submit to.

The Caged Bird Seal is a spiritual seal used by the Hyuga clan to control the branch family members, and it is closely related to the Byakugan. At this time, Mashiro's Byakugan has already been upgraded to the Tenseigan.

The control over the caged bird is more powerful, and at the same time, it generates a stronger sense of superiority over the person controlled by the caged bird.

“There’s something I need your cooperation on,” Mashiro said softly. Yugito looked at Mashiro, waiting for her to continue.

"What do you think are the chances of the Cloud Village winning if that mysterious organization attacks Cloud Village and takes the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki?" Mashiro suddenly asked.

"I have now basically mastered the power of the Two-Tails and become a perfect Jinchūriki. Add to that another perfect Jinchūriki, Lord Killer Bee, and..."

"The Fourth Raikage, and countless ninjas currently in the village—I think if that organization had any brains, they would never come directly to Kumogakure to capture us," Yugito said after a moment's thought.

“No, they will come,” Mashiro said softly.

"Are all members going out together?" Yugito frowned slightly.

If all members of that mysterious organization were to launch a joint attack on Kumogakure, even if they ultimately fail, it would still cause significant damage to the village and result in the deaths and injuries of many ninjas.

“No, only two members will be sent,” Mashiro said.

"Two?" Yugito was puzzled; in her view, this was tantamount to suicide.

“Sometimes, surprise and unexpectedness are the best plans—surprise yourself, surprise the opponent,” Mashiro said softly.

The same thing happened when Nagato attacked Konoha. No one expected the Akatsuki to directly attack the entire village, let alone that their strength was so great. Otherwise, given Konoha's fighting power and its full strength, they wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses.

Yugito looked at Mashiro with a puzzled expression, not understanding what Mashiro meant by "looking at".

"In short, the entire Cloud Ninja will be destroyed, all buildings will be damaged, mountains will be razed to the bottom, and countless residents will die or be injured." Mashiro said, clasping his hands together and resting his chin on them.

Yugito was still incredibly puzzled; she couldn't fathom what kind of attack could have caused such a scene. "What do you want to do?" Yugito asked.

“I want to save those residents,” Mashiro said softly.

“So you need my cooperation,” Yugito said, having already understood Mashiro’s meaning.

Mashiro nodded slightly, then said, "I know you might not believe me now, but it's better to be safe than sorry, isn't it?" "Shouldn't we inform Lord Raikage first?" Yugito asked.

“He won’t believe it; it’ll only waste time,” Mashiro said softly. Of course, more importantly, Mashiro had no intention of telling him in the first place.

“Okay, I understand. What do I need to do?” Yugito asked, looking at Mashiro. “Then…” Mashiro explained softly.

Yugito's expression shifted from calm to a slight frown, and finally, a strange look appeared in her eyes. "Are you sure this will work?" Yugito asked, somewhat doubtfully.

“Of course.” Mashiro nodded seriously. “Then, okay.” Yugito nodded in agreement.

"Well then, let's continue what we did this morning at Leiquan Cliff," Mashiro said with a light laugh.

"What?" Yugito was initially confused, then instantly realized what was happening. Mashiro stood up, pounced on Yugito, and pinned her to the sofa. Yugito's face flushed, but surprisingly, she didn't resist.

Mashiro stroked Yugito's waist, then moved downwards, reaching inside her clothes.

The cold hand made You tense up. "Be gentle."

Yugito turned her head and said with a smile. Mashiro smiled and kissed her.

"What are you doing? No, I've only just started growing." "Don't move around, it looks better when it's smooth."

The clouds have stopped and the rain has ceased.

"Didn't I tell you to be gentle?" Yugito said in a slightly hoarse voice.

She lay on the sofa, half her body slumped over, utterly exhausted. "No, you clearly said to use force," Mashiro said, slowly putting on her clothes. Yugito pondered for a moment, then remained silent.

"Alright, I'll head back now. Take a rest and don't forget to take a shower," Mashiro said, pushing open the door and leaving. Yugito was left alone, silently pounding the sofa after Mashiro left.

Upon reaching the street, it was already evening; the sun was about to set completely, and the moon had already risen.

"Tomorrow, it should begin," Mashiro murmured. Meanwhile, on the other side...

On a mountain peak on the edge of Kumogakure, Nagato was sitting inside, the interior of which had been hollowed out.

Chapter 136: The Great Battle of the Cloud Ninja (Part 6) (√°)

By the time Mashiro groped his way back to the guesthouse, the sun had completely set. Entering the room, he found Sakura already asleep.

After washing up and changing his clothes, he gently lay down beside Sakura. "Maji, are you back?"

As soon as Mashiro lay down, Sakura spoke softly, then rolled over and hugged Mashiro. "Aren't you asleep?" Mashiro asked softly, stroking Sakura's hair.

"She's asleep, but I'm not a light sleeper when I sleep in other places," Sakura said, gently nuzzling Mashiro.

"Okay, then let's sleep together." "Mmm."

The next day, after Mashiro and Sakura got up, someone knocked on the door and brought them breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, Mashiro was lying on Sakura's lap watching TV when Mabui knocked and came in. "Lord Mashiro, Lord Raikage has someone looking for you."

Mashiro wasn't surprised at all. She got up and stretched. "Finally figured it out?"

Upon arriving at the Raikage's office, the Fourth Raikage was already waiting. In addition to him, there were more than a dozen Cloud Ninja, including Yugito and Samui.

"It seems these are the core forces of Yunhu," Zhenbai muttered to himself.

"Alright, you can all leave now." Seeing that Mashiro had arrived, A said to the ninjas. "Yes, Raikage-sama!"

Immediately afterwards, all of the dozen or so ninjas left the Cloud Ninja office.

"Well, has Lord Raikage thought it through?" Mashiro sat down on a chair and said softly.

"I cannot agree to the Five Kage Summit proposal. I will handle it my own way," Ai said seriously.

Mashiro had anticipated this, and she could completely understand it. At this time, the relationships between the five great ninja villages were quite complicated. In her previous life, Mashiro had put a lot of effort into convening the Five Kage Summit. For the Fourth Raikage, summoning the Five Kage Summit meant that he acknowledged that the Cloud Ninja could not fight against that mysterious organization, which was completely unacceptable to him.

"Well then, good luck, Lord Cloud Ninja," Mashiro said with a smile, then got up and left.

After Mashiro left, the Fourth Raikage, A, went to the window and looked intently at the entire Hidden Cloud Village. Meanwhile, on a mountain peak on the edge of the Hidden Cloud Village, Pain and Konan had already assembled.

"Are you ready?" Tiandao asked. Xiaonan nodded seriously.

"Then let's begin," Heaven said softly.

The Asura Path lifted the Animal Path and then forcefully flung it out, causing the Animal Path to pass through the barrier within the Cloud Village. After landing inside the barrier, the Animal Path reached out and summoned the other five Paths.

Meanwhile, in the Cloud Ninja Inspection Department, Doma discovered the anomaly in the barrier and hurriedly reported it to his superiors.

Soon, A received a report that someone had broken into the Cloud Village's barrier. Before A could say anything...

The sound of an explosion came from inside the Hidden Cloud Village.

The Six Paths of Pain began a rampage of killing and destruction, creating chaos in order to search for Killer Bee's whereabouts.

Seeing this, Ai realized it was an attack by Akatsuki. His face was filled with rage, and he said to the Anbu beside him, "Go tell Killer Bee to stay put and not move."

Then he smashed through the window and jumped out.

On the other side, faced with the sudden attack, medical ninjas quickly mobilized to treat the wounded, while other ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village also engaged Pain's Six Paths.

Samui and her brother Atsui clashed with the Asura Path in a battle of cold weapons versus firearms. Motoi, on the other hand, summoned several large owls to restrain the Animal Path.

Karui and Omoi faced off against the Preta Path, using rapid lightning strikes and taijutsu to disrupt its defenses and absorption. The Human Path did not participate in the battle, silently capturing the souls of escaped ninjas and searching for Killer Bee's trail.
