In Naruto, build the strongest Hidden Mist Village.

Chapter 70 The Third Hokage's Gratitude, the Byakugan Breeding Plan

Upon hearing that Kaguya Naoki wanted to summon Uchiha Shisui, the Third Hokage immediately spoke up.

"Then I'll take my leave, Fourth Hokage."

"Do not."

By this time, Naoki Kaguya no longer harbored much ill will towards the Third Hokage, who was old and frail but still doing his utmost to make a final effort for the village.

Therefore, the tone softened.

"Third Generation Leader, please stay and handle some administrative matters."

As soon as he finished speaking, the third generation couldn't help but look up, feeling quite tempted.

Having reigned for so long, he not only accomplished nothing but also caused such great damage to the village. How could he possibly hold his head high if he were to meet the first and second generations in the Pure Land?

But if we can participate in politics or combat now, contribute our remaining energy, and do our best, perhaps we can wash away some of our sins.

The third generation was about to agree when a thought floated through his mind, causing him to immediately shut his mouth.

However, if someone like me, who has a precedent of causing great disgrace to the village, were to participate in political affairs, it would likely leave the Fourth Boss with a stain of political attack, and would only cause greater sins.

So the third generation replied, his eyes somewhat dim.

“A sinner like me cannot get involved. If I were to join, it would probably cause you, Fourth Hokage, unnecessary trouble.”

"I am the Shadow."

Naoki Kaguya chuckled softly and responded immediately.

"A mere nobody, not worth mentioning."

Such a petty person is not worth mentioning.
The Third Hokage murmured to himself, his eyes gleaming.

Looking at Kaguya Naoki's spirited appearance, I couldn't help but sigh, this is what a movie should be like.

Today, I was the one who was preoccupied with gains and losses, and thus I made a poor choice.

Slightly calming his mind and looking at the mountain of scrolls, his cold, beating heart finally felt a renewed vitality.

Then let's do our best for the village.

In order to clear his name of guilt.

for.

The third generation leader paused, then silently said it to himself.

I will not let down the fourth generation leader.

Unrolling the scroll, he and Terumi Mei, who sat upright to one side, began to deal with government affairs with equal seriousness.

[The Third Mizukage's fate has shifted; he has been identified as a Hidden Mist Ninja. 50 Exchange Fragments have been obtained.]

Looking at the transparent frame, Naoki Kaguya's eyes flickered slightly.

Upon reopening the system panel, Naoki Kaguya was still inevitably disappointed.

The complete system belonging to the Water Shadow is still not open.

He estimated that it might take until the fourth generation's ritual was fully completed before it could be completely unlocked.

The Fourth Hokage's ceremony was simple, but ultimately, he had to resolve the peace negotiations with Konoha first before he could have the time to organize such a thing.

Based on this calculation, it might still be a long time before it ends.

Naoki Kaguya shook his head. He wasn't in a hurry. What harm would it do to wait a little longer?

He composed himself and began handling official business.

At this moment, Qing listened intently as the conversation inside the door finally ceased, and then released Uchiha Shisui.

"go in."

Uchiha Shisui nodded stiffly and stepped through the door.

Seeing Kaguya, Naoki, and the other two constantly dealing with government affairs, Uchiha Shisui, who was a little uneasy, did not make any extra movements, but just stood stiffly to one side.

Naoki Kaguya slightly raised his head, his Byakugan eyes watching Uchiha Shisui's clenched hands. He was about to speak immediately, but then chuckled to himself.

Are you nervous?

Let me indulge in some more daydreaming.

Ignoring it all, I buried myself once again in the sea of ​​scrolls.

Uchiha Shisui watched this scene with a mixture of trepidation and anxiety. There were many reasons for this state of mind; one was the uncertainty of his own future, but more so, it stemmed from his worry about the village's future.

Knowing his clansmen well, he knew that once they learned that an Uchiha had been able to manipulate a Kage-level ninja using the Sharingan, they would become even more insane and arrogant, which would have a huge and greater impact on the already crumbling village.

But what can I do?

Uchiha Shisui felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

He was merely a prisoner, his fate adrift.

Only if Kaguya Naoki speaks up and decides his future, giving him at least a chance to connect with the outside world, will he be able to help the village and his family.

This is also why he was so eager to see Kaguya Naoki.

The sooner we determine the future, the sooner we can prepare to return to the village.

So I need to stay calm and absolutely not show weakness in front of Kaguya Naoki. If that guy finds out that I'm actually feeling incredibly vulnerable, he might use it as an excuse to completely ruin my last chance to help the village and my family.

Uchiha Shisui gritted his teeth, waiting for Kaguya Naoki to speak first.

After a long silence, with only a soft rustling sound in the room, a somewhat fanatical roar came from outside the door, immediately interrupting the three people's thoughts and causing them to frown in unison.

"Brother Naoki!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mei Terumi's brows immediately relaxed. If it was Ryota Kaguya, then there was nothing strange about it.

This is their nature, and it's hard to change.

"come in."

Naoki Kaguya looked up helplessly, sighed, and spoke.

Ryota Kaguya pushed open the door, clutching a scroll.

"Brother Naoki, this is the list you requested."

Naoki Kaguya nodded slightly, lowered his head, glanced at the dense black text on it, and immediately looked up.

"Ryota, do you remember what I told you to give me?"

Kaguya Ryota replied enthusiastically, "Of course."

"With such stringent selection criteria, are there really that many people in our clan who meet the requirements?"

Naoki Kaguya asked, still somewhat shocked.

"Yes, those are eye rolls! Everyone in the clan signed up, it's not hard to gather enough people."

Kaguya Ryota suddenly licked his lips frantically, staring intently at Kaguya Naoki, which sent a chill down Naoki's spine while also making him feel vaguely enlightened.

"Everyone signed up?"

Naoki Kaguya frowned deeply.

"So, is it because I used the Byakugan and Shikotsumyaku to create an absolutely sensational victory that the female ninjas in the clan are so frantically signing up to participate in this seed-preservation plan?"

"I don't know what they're thinking, but this is how I feel."

Ryota replied, then sighed regretfully.

"It's a pity I can't have children, otherwise..."

"Shut up."

Naoki Kaguya interrupted him irritably, and Shisui Uchiha, finally realizing what they were talking about, immediately squeezed his legs together, breaking out in a cold sweat.

How dare these guys, these Hidden Mist ninjas, be so audacious?

Naoki Kaguya didn't notice Shisui's reaction; at that moment, his brows furrowed involuntarily.

The Kaguya clan's ninjas are always obsessively focused on combat power to an almost perverse degree. Especially Kaguya Ryota, he's far too extreme!
He said coldly.

"Get out, Ryota."

"Once the ninja academy is rebuilt, you'll go back to study for another year!"

Ryota Kaguya wanted to argue, but seeing Naoki Kaguya's expression, he was afraid that Naoki would really not let him kill anyone and instead send him to study, so he immediately slunk away.

"Naoki, is this the plan you mentioned before?"

Mei Terumi blushed and asked somewhat uncertainly.
