Chapter 251

"Even the Konoha Military Police Force hasn't eaten, so how can I, a foreign guest, possibly be in the mood to eat out?"

A casual remark by Akito.

This immediately made Shikaku Nara realize what was happening.

He immediately gave Fugaku Uchiha a meaningful look.

Fugaku Uchiha thought for a moment, then called out to Mikoto Uchiha, "Mikoto, you haven't eaten either, have you? Come on over."

Then.

The group went to a restaurant arranged by the Konoha authorities.

"Akito Akihito, did you sleep well last night?" Fugaku Uchiha asked, sitting across the table.

"Yes, it's fine."

The Akito sat cross-legged.

Orochimaru was standing nearby, his position seemingly that of a secretary like Guren's.

Mikoto Uchiha, naturally, sat beside her husband, also remaining silent.

Two women kept pouring tea or helping to pass things to you.

They watched silently as the two men discussed various things.

"Fugaku... he truly has a virtuous wife."

Akito suddenly looked at Mikoto Uchiha.

Does the latter understand the deeper meaning behind this?

For Fugaku Uchiha, this was clearly a... threat.

He believed that Amakawa Akito's use of his wife's safety as a premonition meant that if he took action, his family and clan would suffer.

"Akito flatter me, Your Excellency..." Mikoto Uchiha said gently, appearing virtuous.

"Mrs. Mikoto has an extraordinary air about her; you wouldn't guess she's a mother of two."

The Akito smiled slightly and praised him.

Fugaku Uchiha immediately realized that Amakawa Akito was warning him again, and this time... it was the lives of two children that were threatened.

Mikoto Uchiha smiled and accepted the compliment, "Akito, Akito-sama, I've heard you're not married yet."

"With the great undertaking yet to be accomplished, I dare not consider it."

Akito's burning gaze remained fixed on Mikoto Uchiha.

This was interpreted by Fugaku Uchiha as Amakawa Akito having no wife or children, therefore... those with nothing to lose are not afraid of those with shoes.

Wait until breakfast is over.

Fugaku Uchiha has temporarily completed one round of his defensive mission.

The Uchiha Yashiro led the way, followed by Akito and Orochimaru.

Watching the departing figure of the Akito.

Fugaku Uchiha's face darkened.

"Fugaku ..." ⑹ ⑻.,3⑺ 0,⑵,⑼ ⑼⑸,

Mikoto Uchiha glanced at her husband, naturally understanding his concerns.

Coup?

Or should they ambush and kill Amakawa Akito?

One road is dark, the other is light.

Should he have earned the Hokage Position through fair and square means?

"Mikoto, what do you think I should do?" Fugaku Uchiha asked.

"Well... if the assassination attempt fails, at least the village will share the burden. The key issue is, the opportunity to launch the attack..."

Mikoto Uchiha believes...

The most important thing is how to justify the assassination of Amakawa Akito.

If we act rashly...

It will still allow the Konoha High Command to kill two birds with one stone.

We must... come up with a solution.

"I've been thinking about this all night..."

Fugaku Uchiha closed his eyes.

I didn't sleep a wink last night, just thinking about the plan.

"The better plan is to take action against Amakawa Akito in public, so that as many people as possible can see it, and then do so with a reasonable justification."

"That's true. If there are enough witnesses, the village won't be able to manipulate public opinion..." Mikoto Uchiha nodded in agreement.

"Last night, Amakawa Akito told me that if we were to make a move, I could make the first one..."

Fugaku Uchiha did not doubt Amakawa Akito's pride as a strongman.

So...

"Using... to avenge the Shisui Uchiha family and completely resolve the issue of hatred as an opportunity, this reason can be used to justify the assassination."

After the plan was finalized.

Fugaku Uchiha then walked outside...

"Shikaku, I plan to tour Konoha and visit its famous sights. What do you think?"

After having breakfast, Akito had no intention of continuing his conversation with the Konoha High Command.

"Hmm...no problem." Shikaku Nara immediately agreed.

One of the accompanying Anbu then went to report.

Where is your hometown?

Akito walked along the road, Orochimaru was right behind him.

"It's a small town on the border of the Land of Rain. It was destroyed because of the war. I've been away for years, but recently... I heard that my homeland has improved a lot, so I went back to visit a few times and plan to settle down again..."

Orochimaru just blurted it out.

Disguise skills maxed out.

Her demeanor, appearance, and way of speaking were exactly like a woman's.

"Um."

The Akito nodded slightly.

"Would you be interested in working in our Amegakure?"

The Akito sized up Orochimaru's figure.

Her conservative black attire couldn't hide her stunning figure.

Her truly slender waist is the envy of many female ninjas.

Her pale skin and unique temperament made her very charming.

"It is my great honor."

Orochimaru immediately bowed.

He is very willing to infiltrate Amegakure and uncover Amakawa Akito's secrets.

And so, after their conversation, it was noon.

The final destination was... the Konoha Military Police Force.

We've finished our visit.

Akito found an opportunity to be alone with Orochimaru and said, "Let's take this chance and leave Konoha immediately. I think they're planning something against me."

The Akito handed Orochimaru a handwritten letter, which also served as a letter of introduction.

As long as Orochimaru is with you, you can enter Amegakure.

In reality, Akito wanted to find a reason to get Orochimaru out of the way.

And Orochimaru would probably think the same way.

So, he quietly put away the letter, and then... made an excuse and left.

As for Orochimaru, he really went directly to Amegakure.

Or perhaps we should just stay in the shadows and watch the show.

It's okay.

Because, next...

I'm a little hungry.

Akito looked at the Fugaku Uchiha who had arrived and said to them.

Mrs. Mikoto, won't you invite me to your house for dinner?

179. This was your last chance, and you were useless.

Soon after, the group arrived at the home of Fugaku Uchiha.

It's unreasonable for the other party to launch a challenge before they've had enough to eat.

Fugaku Uchiha, who was preparing to take action this afternoon, immediately instructed his wife to prepare a delicious meal.

"The eldest son is out on a mission, and the younger son is at the Ninja Academy."

Fugaku Uchiha explained the current situation at his home.

The Akito sat in the living room.

Then Fugaku Uchiha got up and said he was going to change his clothes.

After a short wait, all the dishes were served.

"Just looking at it makes my mouth water."

Akito stared at Mikoto Uchiha was carrying a tray.

Mikoto Uchiha's smile stiffened slightly, realizing that Akito's words had a hidden meaning.

"Mrs. Mikoto, your husband and I had a long talk last night, almost to the point of making it public."

The Akito crossed his arms over his chest, maintaining a cross-legged posture.

"Aren't you worried about the future of your family and your community? Haven't you considered the consequences if you take action? Aren't you going to... try to persuade your husband?"

The Akito offered his final advice, which was also his last chance.

"I... will just do my job as a wife."

Mikoto Uchiha put down the plate and replied.

The saying goes, "A woman should follow her husband wherever he goes, whether he's a chicken or a dog."

She agreed with all of her husband's decisions.

"I see."

The Akito nodded slightly, gazing at the still-charming and beautiful woman.

"So, you'll also bear all the consequences, responsibilities, and costs caused by your husband, right?"

"That's... exactly it."

After answering, Mikoto Uchiha went to the kitchen to make tea.
