My older sister is Kushina

It has been more than half a month since he took Tamako as his disciple, and Uzumaki Hanamichi is very familiar with Tamako's daily life. She usually goes to home and the late-night diner, and also goes grocery shopping. He used to take Tamako shopping with him, but in the last few days, he let her go shopping alone in order to further train her.

During this time, Uzumaki Hanamichi also went to the Kamikawa family to inquire. From the timid tone and expression of Kamikawa Ichiki and his wife, it was not difficult to judge that the two should not have anything to do with Tamako's disappearance.

After a fruitless search, Uzumaki Hanamichi grew increasingly worried. Although Xiaoyuzi was only a disciple he had taken in for a little over half a month, he still valued the adorable Xiaoyuzi very much after living together for so long. Thinking of the diligent little maid he saw every morning, the little figure shuttling through the late-night diner every day, and the obedient disciple who studied hard every day, he had developed a great deal of appreciation for Xiaoyuzi deep in his heart.

"If you didn't go to the shop, then it's very likely that the problem occurred at the morning market."

Whirlpool Hanamichi secretly analyzed that after completing the morning market purchases, he would send the ingredients to the late-night diner for processing in preparation for the evening business. However, the little girl did not seem to go to the shop today, so he guessed that something might have happened to her at the morning market.

When I was looking for it before, I went to the morning market, but the morning market was deserted in the evening and there were hardly any people. It was only lively in the morning and late morning.

"Looks like I need to ask someone for help."

Uzumaki Hanamichi took a deep breath, and soon he transformed into a different person—wearing ANBU ninja armor and a wolf-head mask.

Transforming into Wolf Fang, Uzumaki Hanamichi headed directly towards the Dark Division.

At this moment, he planned to use the power of the Dark Guard to help him find Xiaoyuzi.

Soon, Uzumaki Hanamichi arrived at the Dark Division.

In the office area of ​​the first squad of the Dark Side, Hyuga Hima was packing her things to leave; she had finished her work for the day.

Just as Hyuga Hima was about to leave the office area, a figure hurriedly walked in.

That figure was none other than Wolf Fang, the captain of the first squad of the Dark Guard.

"team leader!"

Hyuga Himai was somewhat surprised to see Uzumaki Hanamichi walking towards her in a hurry. Her captain had already left work earlier, so why did he suddenly return to the Anbu?

Uzumaki Hanamichi nodded to Hinata Hima: "Himai, where is Inuzuka He now?"

Hyuga Himai immediately replied, "He's still on duty in the south of the village."

Without saying much, Whirlpool Flower Path quickly vanished in a blur.

Hyuga Mai opened her mouth, about to ask what was going on, but found that the captain was gone.

After leaving the Anbu, Uzumaki Hanamichi headed straight south of the village at full speed. He was looking for Inuzuka Kasa because the Inuzuka clan had an innate talent for scent, and their ninja dogs were also excellent at tracking. He was now thinking of asking Inuzuka Kasa to help him find Kotama.

Before long, the Whirlpool Flower Path arrived at the guard area of ​​the first squad in the south of the village.

He was very familiar with the area he was assigned to, as he had been on duty there before.

Upon arriving at the assigned area, Whirlpool Flower Path immediately spotted Might Guy.

Might Guy truly lives up to his reputation as Konoha's future Blue Beast; he was even training during his duty shift.

When a figure suddenly appeared beside him, Might Guy was startled. Relieved to see it was the captain, he immediately stood up from his push-up position, shouting, "Captain!"

Uzumaki Hanamichi nodded: "Is your class representative over there?"

Matt Kai immediately pointed Whirlpool Flower Path in a direction.

Whirlpool Flower Path then blurred into a streak and flashed in the direction Might Guy pointed, leaving behind a voice: "Guy, keep training!"

Might Guy was a little confused, but he didn't think much of it and continued training.

998、999、1000、1001、1002……

Whirlpool Hanamichi quickly discovered Inuzuka He.

Inuzuka He was quite relaxed, hiding in a lush tree.

His ninja dog, Black Fang, lay behind him, using him as a pillow.

Suddenly, Inuzuka He's expression changed, and he immediately stood up.

At the same time, a figure appeared in front of him.

Inuzuka Hei saw that the person who came was Captain Ryougi, and let out a soft breath: "Captain!"

Whirlpool Flower said, "He, there's something I need to trouble you with."

Inuzuka He nodded.

Without hesitation, Uzumaki Hanamichi first briefly described the situation to Inuzuka He, and then led Inuzuka He away from the guard area. However, before leaving, he left a shadow clone in Inuzuka He's guard area.

Inuzuka He followed Captain Langya to a residential courtyard.

That courtyard was the home of Whirlpool Flower Path.

Uzumaki Hanamichi did not reveal his identity. When explaining to Inuzuka He, he said that a friend's child had gone missing and he needed Inuzuka He's help in finding him.

"These are the clothes that child usually wears; they should have her scent on them."

Whirlpool Flower Path took out a piece of clothing that Little Jade usually wore.

Inuzuka He nodded, then used ninjutsu to enhance his memory of Tamako's scent, and then let the ninja dog, Black Fang, sniff it.

Soon, the two people and the dog left together.

Along the way, the ninja dog Black Fang led the way.

The Inuzuka clan's ninja dogs are basically trained from a young age, making them much more sensitive to smells than ordinary dogs, and they usually also possess formidable combat abilities.

Led by Kuroya, Uzumaki Hanamichi and Inuzuka He quickly arrived at the morning market.

The morning market at night was very quiet, almost deathly still.

Inuzuka He and Kuroga spent quite a bit of time at the morning market. Although they had a unique sense of smell, the market was crowded, and it wasn't easy to distinguish the smells among the many people.

About half an hour later, Kiba Inuzuka and Kuroga finally determined the direction Tamako had gone.

Whirlpool Flower Path felt a little gloomy. After leaving the morning market, Xiaoyuzi did not head towards the village, but towards the outside of the village.

"Captain, should we continue the pursuit?"

Inuzuka He looked at Captain Wolf Fang.

Without the slightest hesitation, Uzumaki Hanamichi immediately replied, "Continue the pursuit."

Inuzuka He nodded.

Soon, Inuzuka He and Kuroga led the way, with Uzumaki Hanamichi following closely behind.

The two people and the dog quickly left Konoha Village.

Uzumaki Hanamichi's worries deepened. Xiaoyuzi should have been heading to the Midnight Diner after finishing her morning shopping, but instead she was heading out of the village, which was very unusual. If he wasn't mistaken, Xiaoyuzi had probably been coerced or forcibly taken away. He didn't know who would do such a thing, but no matter what the situation was, Xiaoyuzi's current condition was probably very bad.

"I hope nothing bad happens to the little girl!"

Uzumaki Hanamichi now only hopes that Xiaoyuzi's people haven't been harmed. All he can do right now is find her as soon as possible.
