Naruto: Fusion of Multiverse Character Templates

Chapter 182 Uchiha Mikoto's Beauty Trap (Third and Fourth Updates)

Mikoto Uchiha didn't talk to Natsuki for very long.

The main reason is that Xia Mu has things to do.

Mikoto Uchiha returned to the Konoha Police Department.

"Mikoto-sama."

An Uchiha ninja stepped forward and said, "The clan leader wants you to go to his office."

"I'll go now."

Mikoto Uchiha nodded slightly and went straight upstairs.

Before long, they arrived at Uchiha Fugaku's office.

After knocking and receiving permission, I went inside.

"Mikoto."

When Fugaku Uchiha saw her, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he said, "You did very well."

He had previously hinted to Mikoto Uchiha that she wanted an important job from Natsuki.

Therefore, he now mistakenly believes that she did as he expected, and did it exceptionally well, far exceeding his expectations.

"The Uchiha clan is also very pleased that you have become the Hokage's secretary."

Fugaku Uchiha continued.

After the Jonin meeting, news of the establishment of the two new departments, the Hokage Guard and the Hokage Secretary, had already spread throughout Konoha.

This was Orochimaru's special request, in order to stir up people's hearts.

The effect was particularly noticeable after Mikoto Uchiha joined the Hokage's secretary.

Even the Uchiha clan, which had always been suppressed, was given important positions by Orochimaru, not to mention other ninja clans and ninjas.

In fact, the results were quite good.

Although the Uchiha clan is proud, they still essentially identify themselves as ninjas of Konoha Village.

The radical faction in the original work is still in the minority and has not yet developed to the point of rebellion.

Now that Orochimaru has given them a sweet treat, many Uchiha clan ninjas have changed their impression of Orochimaru.

They all believed that Orochimaru was fairer than Hiruzen Sarutobi, and they also had high hopes for the future of the Uchiha clan.

"This is not my achievement."

Mikoto Uchiha felt unworthy of the compliment and quickly said, "I'm just benefiting from Natsuki's kindness."

"You deserve credit for being able to get along well with Natsuki."

Fugaku Uchiha bluntly stated, "Natsuki is the same age as you and is a candidate for the next Hokage. You should seize this opportunity."

"————?"

Mikoto Uchiha subconsciously looked up, revealing a blank and astonished expression.

She hadn't expected such words to come from Fugaku Uchiha's mouth, which made it seem very incongruous.

Even when Hiruzen Sarutobi was Hokage, the Uchiha clan had a lot of complaints about him and Danzo Shimura.

Why did the Uchiha clan's attitude change so drastically when Orochimaru became Hokage?

Ultimately, it's because she's not politically astute.

No matter how nicely Hiruzen Sarutobi spoke, he didn't offer the Uchiha clan any substantial benefits.

Orochimaru, however, was different; he directly gave her the position of Hokage's secretary, which was a real benefit.

"This is the clan's expectation of you. Just do your best to meet it without affecting your position as Hokage's secretary."

Fugaku Uchiha added.

"I understand, Chieftain."

After a moment of silence, Mikoto Uchiha spoke.

The next day arrived.

After having breakfast, Xia Mu rushed to the Dark Division base.

"Natsuki-sama."

When Xiang saw him, he came up to him and said, "The construction team has been found."

"Just send them directly to the Hokage Building."

Xia Mu paused for a moment, then asked, "How long will it take?"

"At most half a month."

"It answered."

"Get them to do it as quickly as possible."

Xia Mu instructed, "Both departments will have to wait until the office renovations are completed before they can start work."

"Yes, Natsuki-sama."

Elephant nodded and said, "Shennong went to the Uzumaki clan's residence during the Hokage succession ceremony and stole some of the sealing techniques."

"Continue to monitor him."

Xia Mu's reaction was exactly as expected.

"Yes, Natsuki-sama."

The elephant turned and left.

Xia Mu walked into the office and began his work.

Soon, the knocking sounded again.

"Come in."

Xia Mu raised his head and said.

The door was opened.

To Natsuki's surprise, it wasn't an ANBU ninja who entered, but Uchiha Mikoto.

"Natsuki."

Mikoto Uchiha said gently, "Do you like tea? I brought you some tea; it's from the Land of Tea."

After she finished speaking, she took out an exquisite gift box containing tea from her psychic storage scroll.

Xia Mu was taken aback.

He had previously said that Uchiha Mikoto had the qualities of a virtuous wife and loving mother.

I have this impression mainly because Natsuki has read the original work.

But the current Uchiha Mikoto seems to be very close to the original work.

What's going on?

"Thanks."

Natsuki snapped out of her daze and said, "Mikoto-senpai, since you've already brought it over, I won't stand on ceremony. Please put it on the coffee table."

"You don't need to call me senior, just call me by my name."

Mikoto Uchiha shook her head and said, "You go about your work, I'll make you some tea."

She walked to the coffee table, squatted down, opened the gift box, and took out a brand new tea set and tea bags.

Xia Mu looked at her and sensed a respectful air about her every move.

He seemed to be deep in thought.

Could it be that Fugaku Uchiha sent her over to build a good relationship with him?

Thinking about it that way, it is indeed very possible.

The Uchiha clan is far from being at the point of turning against Konoha.

On the contrary, the Uchiha clan desperately wanted a Hokage to support them.

Ideally, the Hokage's surname would be Uchiha.

Xia Mu touched his chin.

It must have been his decision to make Mikoto Uchiha the Hokage's secretary that caused a misunderstanding within the Uchiha clan.

So they simply let her use her beauty to get close to him.

Xia Mu couldn't help but smile.

To be fair, Mikoto Uchiha's honey trap was terrible.

Because she is a woman with very traditional thinking.

Her beauty wasn't used to seduce him, but rather to take care of him like a virtuous wife and loving mother.

But it must be said, this kind of honey trap is quite interesting.

Xia Mu guessed it but didn't intend to expose it.

He's not some saint who would return a gift that's been handed to him.

Furthermore, in a sense, he also prevented the tragedy of the Uchiha clan being wiped out from the root.

Xia Mu withdrew his gaze and continued reading the documents in his hands.

Before long, the aroma of tea filled the air.

Although Xia Mu didn't know much about tea, he could tell from the aroma that the tea sent by the Uchiha clan was no ordinary tea.

That's normal, though.

The Uchiha clan is a powerful and wealthy ninja clan.

This is a characteristic shared by all the great ninja clans.

Because of the large number of people, many clansmen who could not become ninjas went into business to make money.

Even the Nara clan deals in medicinal herbs, not to mention a powerful ninja clan like the Uchiha.

"Natsuki."

Mikoto Uchiha walked up to him, holding a teacup in both hands.

"Thanks."

Xia Mu took the teacup, took a sip, and nodded, saying, "It is indeed good tea."

After he finished drinking, he casually put it aside.

Mikoto Uchiha immediately picked up the teapot and poured him a cup.

"No need for that, I can do it myself."

Xia Mu turned his head to look at her and said, "You can go about your business."

"I'm free for the time being."

Mikoto Uchiha said softly, "Natsuki, is there anything I can do for you? I can help."

"Is everything alright with the Konoha Police Department?"

Xia Mu asked in confusion.

"I am now the Hokage's secretary."

Mikoto Uchiha replied, "In order not to affect my work, the clan leader has already removed me from my position in the Konoha Police Department."

""

"I see."

Xia Mu couldn't help but think to himself that Uchiha Fugaku was really thoughtful.

That's normal, though.

As the clan leader, everything he does is for the benefit of the Uchiha clan.

He wants to get married, and he's not short of women.

Besides, Mikoto Uchiha isn't so stunningly beautiful that anyone would want to marry her.

Judging from Xia Mu's aesthetic standards, she wouldn't even rank in his top five.

However, he really liked her virtuous wife and loving mother qualities.

After all, as men, we all like a woman who is completely obedient to us.

"And what about your squad?"

Xia Mu asked again.

"My squad members are all members of the Konoha Police Department."

Mikoto Uchiha explained, "They will have new Uchiha Jonin leading them."

"What I'm doing here isn't suitable for you."

Xia Mu thought for a moment and said, "But I guess the teacher will assign us tasks soon."

The fact that the office renovation is not yet complete does not mean that there is nothing to do during this period.

Based on his understanding of Orochimaru, at most this week, he would personally handle the work and make himself known.

Starting next week, most of the work will be handed over to the Hokage Secretariat.

In this way, he will have enough time to do his experiments.

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mikoto replied with a gentle expression, "Then I'll pour you some tea."

"Thanks."

Seeing this, Xia Mu said nothing more and continued working.

Mikoto Uchiha secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At least the first step was successful.

She wasn't kicked out by Xia Mu.

But then she thought about it again and felt a little ashamed.

After all, Natsuki treated her friend very well, and even helped her become the Hokage's secretary.

Now she's approaching him with ulterior motives, which is truly inappropriate.

Mikoto Uchiha lowered her head, looking at Natsuki's handsome profile, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Although she was approached at the behest of the Uchiha clan, she did not resist.

An hour later, Xia Mu finished processing the documents.

He picked up his teacup and finished the last cup of tea.

To prevent the tea from getting cold, Mikoto Uchiha used Fire Release to heat it up halfway through.

"Thank you for your help today, Misaka."

Xia Mu stood up and said, "I've finished my work and need to go back to cultivate. You should go back and rest too."

"Natsuki."

Mikoto Uchiha hesitated for a few seconds before asking, "Can I come again tomorrow?"

"sure."

Xia Mu stared at her and said.

"Well—I'll be going now, see you tomorrow."

Mikoto Uchiha sensed his gaze and hurriedly turned to leave.

After leaving the office, she instinctively pressed her hand to her chest, feeling her face burning.

Her actions just now were far too outrageous for her.

Xia Mu smiled, opened the spatial portal, and returned to the Senju clan's residence.

"Natsuki!"

Kushina Uzumaki immediately ran up.

Just as Xia Mu was about to speak, she grabbed his hand and led him into the living room.

Kushina Uzumaki tiptoed and brought her rosy lips close to hers.

Looking at her so close, Xia Mu thought to himself that she was really clingy when she was in love.

After a long while, their lips parted.

Kushina Uzumaki wore a happy smile.

Those soft lips were glossy, with faint traces of wear.

"Little glutton."

Xia Mu reached out and grabbed her buttocks, saying.

"So what?"

Kushina Uzumaki gave a soft hum and admitted it.

Xia Mu raised an eyebrow.

We need to find a suitable opportunity to teach her a lesson.

"Let's go cultivate."

Kushina Uzumaki happily grabbed him and led him back into the courtyard.

Xia Mu formed hand seals and created three shadow clones.

He is currently learning both Impure World Reincarnation and Reaper Death Seal.

In addition, there is the development of new abilities such as Yin Healing and Destruction and the Door-Door Fruit.

The simplest of these is developing Yin Healing and Destroying.

There are also magical arts from Ryuchi Cave.

However, since it doesn't involve unlocking character templates, he only learns it when he has free time.

A new week has begun, and it's already August.

The change of Hokage did not have any adverse effects; on the contrary, Konoha Village became more vibrant than before.

Only Danzo Shimura became the biggest loser.

All the experiments at the root were conducted in secret.

Although it may not seem to have much impact in the short term, it actually has a significant impact.

Because Konoha Village will reduce its financial investment in the Root.

After all, no more experiments need to be done on the roots; all the experiments have been concentrated in the research department.

But experiments are precisely the ones that require the most money.

Danzo Shimura was able to make ends meet for a while thanks to his savings.

However, as time goes on, he will face the predicament of lacking money.

on Monday.

After having breakfast, Natsuki received a notification from the Anbu, instructing him to go to the Hokage's office.

He then went to the Hokage Building.

At the entrance, he encountered Uchiha Mikoto.

"Good morning, Natsuki."

Uchiha Mikoto stepped forward and said softly.

"Good morning."

Xia Mu smiled and said.

For the entire week, Mikoto Uchiha came to his office every day to make him tea, showing more dedication than any maid.

"Did the teacher send you?"

Xia Mu asked as he walked.

"Um.

""

Mikoto Uchiha nodded.

The two quickly arrived at the Hokage's office.

Nara Shikaku and Namikaze Minato arrived earlier than them and nodded in greeting upon seeing them.

"Everyone's here, so I'll start assigning tasks."

Orochimaru said swiftly and decisively, "You are the Hokage's secretaries, and your main responsibilities are as follows—"

Five minutes later, Xia Mu couldn't help but twitch his lips after hearing this.

Orochimaru reassigned at least four-fifths of the original Hokage duties to them.

Each of the four of them was responsible for one-fifth of the work.

It has to be said that Orochimaru really knew how to use people.

Xia Mu recalled that in the original work, after Naruto Uzumaki became Hokage, he was so busy that he didn't even have much time to go home.

"From now on, the types of jobs I mentioned will be delivered to your office."

Orochimaru concluded by saying, "After you've dealt with this, report back to me."

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Xia Mu and the other three said in unison.

"Go to your offices."

Orochimaru waved his hand and said.

He hadn't done any experiments for a week and was eager to get back to them.

Xia Mu and the other three bowed slightly and turned to leave.

The Hokage's secretary's office is right next to the Hokage's office.

After the renovation, there are four desks.

The two sheets are placed side by side, one on the left and one on the right.

A passageway was left in the middle.

"I usually stay in my office."

Xia Mu thought for a moment and said, "I'll choose the desk at the very back."

"I'll choose the desk across from you."

Uchiha Mikoto immediately said.

Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze and Shikaku Nara chose the two desks closest to the door.

"I'll go check my office."

Xia Mu greeted them and then went to the next room.

He looked up and saw a line of words written by the door: Hokage Guard, Hokage Secretary Natsuki's Office.

The captain of the Dark Division was not added.

Under normal circumstances, the shadowy areas will not be exposed.

He is quite special, holding three positions, so many people know that he is currently in charge of the secret service.

Xia Mu pushed open the door and went inside.

His office was much smaller than the Hokage's office, but the furnishings were similar, with a desk, coffee table, and sofa.

A pile of documents was already on the desk.

Xia Mu stepped forward and began working.

These documents were all trivial matters and not particularly important; he finished them in no time.

Another week has passed.

With a thought, Xia Mu sensed the disappearance of one of his eyeball clones.

Thinking of this, Xia Mu used the Door-Door Fruit to arrive in the Land of Water.

However, he had never been to Kakuzu's current location, so he performed the Shikai of Nichizuki.

He rode a giant fish, began to fly over the sea, and activated his Observation Haki.

Half an hour later, an island came into view.

The island isn't very big, but it's covered in lush vegetation, including a forest.

Natsuki sensed that Kakuzu and the others were in the forest.

More accurately, it is within the barrier.

He put away the meat shards and jumped down from the sky.

Slow down immediately upon reaching the ground.

"Natsuki-sama."

His appearance immediately attracted the attention of the Akatsuki ninjas.

Kakuzu also appeared.

The two people walked into a large hall.

"You did a good job."

Xia Mu nodded and said.

"Can I return to the Land of Rain?"

Kakuzu immediately asked.

He had been here for almost a month without earning any money, which was torture for him.

"I'll take you back."

Xia Mu then opened a portal.

Kakuzu walked in and disappeared.

Xia Mu bit his thumb and used a spirit communication technique.

With a bang.

Princess Ichikishima appeared from within the smoke.

"Owner!"

As soon as Princess Ichikishima saw him, she stepped forward and said, "It's been so long! I've been thinking about you every day!"

Xia Mu felt her soft body rubbing against him, and looking at her innocent smile, he couldn't tell if she was telling the truth.

He composed himself and then summoned Princess Tsuratsu and Princess Takoshi.

"I have a task for you."

Xia Mu told them about establishing the Kuja Pirates.

"Master, rest assured, with the strength of Ryuchi Cave, establishing the Kuja Pirates will be no problem at all!"

Princess Ichikishima immediately responded.

"Even if we face Kirigakure, we have the strength to fight them."

"Hime Tsuratsu said with great confidence."

Princess Tianxin nodded calmly.

"Your first task is to investigate the companies in the Land of Water that have business dealings in maritime transport."

Xia Mu gave the instructions.

Since it's the Kuja Pirates, they naturally need a ship first.

Fortunately, the ninja world has some unusual technological advancements; they even have modern warships.

Xia Mu's idea was to seize a ship and, incidentally, find out the details of the major shipping companies.

He wasn't going to rob just anyone; he planned to specifically target problematic shipping companies.

Besides that, it was also to verify Ryuchi-dong's intelligence capabilities.

Because Ryuchi Cave is theoretically capable of controlling all snakes in the ninja world.
