Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

It seems a decision has been made.

As darkness fell, the bustling Kusagakure village of daytime became quiet with the arrival of night.

Inside the dilapidated tent, a pair of eyes peeked out from under the door, cautiously observing the surroundings.

After confirming that no one was around, she pushed open the door and quietly led her daughter out.

Kuroko carried only a small bundle containing essential food and water. If they ate sparingly, it should be enough for her and Karin to make their way to the Land of Fire.

"Keep it down, don't make any noise."

Holding her daughter's shoulder, Aoi Uzumaki reminded her in an extremely serious tone.

Karin covered her mouth and nodded, trying not to make a sound.

Before we left, my mother had repeatedly emphasized the importance of escaping.

Kusagakure was already familiar with the environment of the village. She chose the least crowded route out of the village and continued along this road to leave Kusagakure.

Throughout the entire process, she didn't even dare to breathe too loudly, and Karin, who was holding her hand, also didn't dare to make a sound.

The slightest noise around them would make them stop in alarm, waiting for things to calm down before continuing.

Finally, the outline of the Kusagakure gate came into view.

Joy welled up in Aoi's eyes.

Very good!

Once we get past that place, we can start a new life.

"Damn it! You bitch! Where do you think you're going?"

The shouts and curses coming from the wall made Aoi Uzumaki turn pale.

……

The next day.

Konoha.

Just as Namikaze Mirai arrived at the Hokage's office, ready to begin her new day's work, she received intelligence from Konoha's scouts in the Land of Grass.

According to the intelligence report, around 11:30 p.m. last night, a ninja from Kusagakure attempted to defect but was discovered by the Kusagakure ninjas guarding the walls.

An investigation revealed that the woman who wanted to leave Kusagakure was a member of the Uzumaki clan.

The Uzumaki clan?

Namikaze Mirai's pupils dilate.

His sister-in-law, Kushina, is from the Uzumaki clan.

Naruto, the nephew, also inherited the Uzumaki surname!

Her gaze gradually turned cold. Namikaze Mirai read through the intelligence scroll in its entirety and roughly understood what had happened.

The Hidden Grass Village is keeping a woman from the Uzumaki clan, who appears to be raising a daughter who is a few years old.

Last night, the woman in the vortex attempted to escape but was unfortunately discovered.

This scene was discovered by a Konoha scout who had infiltrated the vicinity of Kusagakure and sent the information back.

"The Uzumaki clan, very good! When did my sister-in-law's clan fall to the point of being imprisoned by Kusagakure..."

Kushina Uzumaki, the sister-in-law, always hoped to find other members of her clan before she died.

Now we've finally received news of the Whirlpool Clan, but in this way.

Although Miki Namikaze's eyes were smiling, that smile contained a chilling undercurrent.

Those who know him well know this.

This is a sign that he is about to lose his temper.

"Somebody come!"

"Summon Uchiha Shisui."

"Yes!"

Namikaze Mirai's eyes were cold.

Uchiha Shisui was appointed by him as the head of the Uchiha Peacekeeping Department.

Since Kusagakure has the audacity to imprison the Uzumaki clan, let them bear the wrath of the Peacekeeping Department!

Let the Hidden Grass Village taste the terror of the Uchiha!

Chapter 123 Kunai-shi Susanoo?

"You vile woman! Trying to escape? What has our Kusagakure village ever done to wrong you?"

"Kill her! This ungrateful slut deserves to be beaten to death!"

A grass ninja kicked out, sending the frail Uzumaki Aoi flying. The Aoi's forehead hit the stone slab, drawing blood.

But the group of grass ninjas were not satisfied. They kicked Uzumaki Aoi hard in the abdomen, causing her body to spasm and curl up in pain.

"Kill her! Kill her!"

The onlookers, including the ninja, were filled with rage and cursed.

The leader stepped on the head of the whirlpool sunflower with his right foot, pressing down his entire body weight.

"You and your daughter fled to Kusagakure. It was my order that you were taken in, given food and clothing, and treated with the best. How can you show no gratitude whatsoever?"

The whirlpool-like Aoi, who was being trampled under his feet, simply curled up, protecting her upper body with her thin arms covered in bite marks, without uttering a word.

Her daughter was hiding under the table in the tent, covering her mouth with her hands in terror, watching this scene with tears in her eyes.

If she resists in any way, these beasts might vent their anger on her daughter.

For her daughter's sake, she must, and absolutely cannot, resist.

"You slut! You despicable woman! What has Kusagakure done to wrong you?"

The leader of Kusagakure stepped harder on Aoi Uzumaki's head, his face contorted in a ferocious expression.

He was furious that Aoi Uzumaki had run away.

They eat them, live in them, and only occasionally suck their blood.

This despicable woman actually tried to run away with her daughter?

Where in the world can you find such a good thing?

Suddenly, it seemed as if he remembered something.

A cold smile crept across his lips.

"You're not thinking of escaping to the Land of Fire, are you?"

"Heh, Konoha watched helplessly as the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed. Do you really expect them to take you in?"

The leader's mockery was like a sharp dagger piercing into Aoi Uzumaki's heart, causing her eyes to darken instantly.

Yes! When the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, Konoha, as an ally, just watched helplessly without sending any ninjas to ask for help.

Even if I escape to the Land of Fire, what's the point?

Will they really accept themselves?

Thinking this, Aoi Uzumaki's heart gradually became lifeless, and she lay motionless on the ground like a walking corpse.

Just when she had completely given up hope.

"Chief, Chief! Something terrible has happened! Ninjas are attacking the village!"

A grass ninja rushed in to report.

Attack the village?!

What a joke!

The leader and the surrounding grass ninjas were shocked. This was Kusagakure, the most powerful ninja village in the entire Land of Grass.

Aside from the five great ninja villages, which one would dare to attack them?

Just as they were marveling at it.

boom! ! !

Suddenly, a tremendous roar came from the gate of Kusagakure Village in the distance, followed by a surge of towering flames that engulfed the walls and the gate.

"Fire... Fire Release?!"

The grass stalks stared blankly, mouths agape.

How can there be such a powerful fire jutsu?!

In the brief few seconds that they were stunned, the sounds of killing, shouts, and the screams of the grass ninja echoed through the village.

A large group of unfamiliar ninjas rushed over, forming an encirclement. They were dressed in uniform dark brown uniforms, and when they saw each other's eyes, the pupils of these grass ninjas suddenly contracted!

"Write...Sharingan?!"
