The Full Moon Banquet Officially Begins (Ao)
Uchiha Kō brought Nara Rokumei back to the Hokage Building. The two smiled at each other, it seemed that their daughter/little princess was quite influential, even the Akatsuki had prepared a generous gift.
"Lu Ming, please take good care of things from now on," Uchiha Kō instructed.
"Don't worry, I will definitely make sure the little princess's full moon celebration is a success." Nara Rokumei chuckled.
"Alright, I'll go back and be with my daughter and wife then!" With that, Uchiha Kō vanished in an instant.
Nara Rokumei returned to the Hokage Building, turned on his computer, and looked at the webcam. At the same time, he summoned four ninjas, who also turned on their computers and looked at the four areas.
Security is of paramount importance at the full moon celebration; if security is well managed, the celebration is half successful!
Just then, an employee spoke up, "Lord Lu Ming, everyone from Kumogakure has gone out into the streets, and they're all acting suspiciously."
Nara Rokumei stood up upon hearing this. He went to the employee's side, looked at the computer, and saw a ninja wearing Kumogakure Forehead Protector looking around.
The next moment, the ninja's eyes lit up, and he quickened his pace, while Lu Ming began to pull up all the surveillance footage of that area.
"Who is the ninja he's following? Does anyone recognize him?" Nara Rokumei asked.
"I think I know this person. His name is Hyuga Chikumo. He's just an ordinary Hyuga ninja," one of the employees said earnestly.
"Hyuga Zhiyun? Wait, look!" Nara Rokumei pointed at the screen.
Hyuga Zhiyun knocked on the door, and another girl from the Hyuga Clan came out. The two embraced and then went into the room.
The Kumogakure ninja trembled upon seeing that there was another Hyuga, and he took out paper and pen to write it down.
Nara Rokumei frowned, zoomed in on the camera, and what he was writing appeared clearly before his eyes.
It's a map! The starting point is... an inn in Kumogakure!
Could it be! Nara Rokumei was sweating profusely as he began replaying the recordings, pulling up the routes of all the other Kumogakure. Finally, he broke out in a cold sweat and realized one thing.
The people from Kumogakure had ill intentions. At noon, they sent envoys to scout the area, and all of them shared a common characteristic: Hyuga.
It's easy to deduce one thing: the Kumogakure wants to use the princess's full moon celebration to plunder the Hyuga Hyūga Clan's Byakugan. Damn it, the sky is falling!
Celebrating the little princess was a pretense; their real purpose was to plunder Konoha's Byakugan! If Uchiha Kō hadn't ordered the village to be equipped with 360-degree cameras today, they really wouldn't have known so much.
"You guys keep an eye on things, I'm going to make a phone call," Nara Rokumei said, and then walked out.
It wasn't that he wanted to disturb Uchiha Kō so quickly; it was just that this matter involved too many people and too many things, and there was also the Third Raikage A, whose strength in the Ninja World was second only to Uchiha Kō!
"Beep beep beep~" The phone rang, then paused, and a familiar voice could be heard from the phone.
"Hello? What's up?" Uchiha Kō spoke first. He was also puzzled as to why Lu Ming was calling him so soon after he returned.
"Lord Hokage, I just reviewed the recordings and discovered something, something big..." Nara Rokumei told Uchiha Kō everything he had just discovered.
Uchiha Kō raised an eyebrow, nodded, touched Tsunade's soft hand, and then said, "Alright, I understand. I'll send a Wood Clone to keep an eye on them!"
"Yes!" Nara Rokumei breathed a sigh of relief. He knew how powerful Uchiha Kō. If Uchiha Kō said he would create a Wood Clone, then he would create a Wood Clone, which would be enough to solve everything!
Uchiha Kō then hung up the phone, touched the bridge of his nose, and shook his head.
"What happened to my husband?" Tsunade's brows furrowed with worry. She feared that her daughter's full moon celebration might cause trouble for Konoha, which would be disastrous.
"No, it's nothing, just a small matter, don't worry, wife." After saying that, he formed a hand Hand Seals, and with a bang, a puff of smoke appeared and then slowly disappeared, from which a figure emerged.
It was Uchiha Kō's Shadow Clone. He and the real Uchiha Owl exchanged a glance, and Uchiha Kō nodded. The Shadow Clone vanished instantly, without a trace.
Uchiha Kō then explained the reason to Tsunade and said, "Husband, why don't you take action yourself? Can you really wipe out the Kumogakure, including the Third Raikage, with just a clone?"
"Don't worry, my wife just used 80% of my Shadow Clone to create that Chakra, so there won't be any problems. Even if something happens, I'll sense it immediately and come to her aid." Uchiha Kō touched her cheek.
Tsunade blushed slightly, nodded, and then patted Uchiha Kō's chest. "You bad guy, hurry up and recover your Chakra! You've got about 80%! That's a lot."
"I've fully recovered. Has my wife forgotten about my physique? Sage Body and Resurrection." Uchiha Kō smiled wickedly.
Tsunade, her face flushed, seemed to be thinking of something. "Honey, we haven't done 'that' in so long, tonight..."
Uchiha Kō nodded. "Of course, but not tonight. It'll have to wait a couple of days. There are too many people and too many things to deal with."
"When Konoha opens its doors for the daughter's full-moon celebration, all the demons and monsters from every village come out!" Uchiha Kō exclaimed. Tsunade nodded and leaned against him.
The two of them nestled together like that.
Night falls
The center of Konoha was still brightly lit, its lights even illuminating much of the sky.
Uchiha Kō stood on the stage and spoke.
"Today is my daughter's one-month celebration. Uchiha Kō welcomes representatives from various villages and countries to be our guests and to enjoy the food and drinks!" After Uchiha Kō finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
According to social class, the Five Kage and their families sat at one table, their guards at another, the Daimyo at Jonin another, the Chunin at another, the Genin another, the young geniuses at another, and the commoners at another.
The seats were quickly filled. Uchiha Kō glanced at everyone and said, "Today, besides food and drink, all the clans of Konoha have prepared songs and dances, which will be performed for you from where I am standing!"
"At 12 o'clock, I will bring my daughter up for a castration ceremony, as a blessing!" After Uchiha Kō finished speaking, everyone was overjoyed.
Everyone has heard of Princess Uchiha Rou's name, but no one knows what she looks like, so naturally, people are curious.
On the stage in Konoha, there is a large screen projection, just like now, where Uchiha Kō's figure can be seen by everyone through the projection.
Tsunade sat in the first seat of the ladies' section, holding her child as she looked at Uchiha Kō on the big screen, a smile playing on her lips!
Seated beside them were Sarutobi Hiruzen's wife, Biwako Sarutobi; Senju Hashirama's wife Uzumaki Mito; and Uchiha Izuna's wife Pakura. These four were the most distinguished women in Konoha.
"Tsunade, let me hold Rou Rou!" Uzumaki Mito looked expectantly at Uchiha Rou in Tsunade, her eyes filled with loving affection.
Tsunade nodded and carefully handed Uchiha Rou to her grandmother. Uzumaki Mito looked at Uchiha Rou face and long eyelashes, and her eyes narrowed into slits with a smile.
"Tsunade, when you come back to the Senju Clan Compound more often, remember to bring Rou Rou with you. You can't stop coming back to your parents' home just because you have a husband. Your grandfather and I miss you terribly!" Uzumaki Mito looked at Tsunade, waiting for his answer.
Tsunade ashamed. When she went home to visit Mito before, Mito had said that married women should spend more time with their husbands and not always come back!
But now, because of Uchiha Rou, she seems to have regained the right to return to her parents' home. Even Mito couldn't escape the "grandparents love grandchildren" phenomenon!
Uchiha Rou suddenly opened her eyes, then reached out her small hand and touched Uzumaki Mito's face. Tsunade was taken aback; why was this child touching her like that!
Then, pinching Mito's face with a smile, Uzumaki Mito not only didn't get angry, but also let Uchiha Rou her face, and then occasionally kissed Uchiha Rou on the face.
Uchiha Rou smiled happily; she loved her great-grandmother! Great-grandmother Uzumaki Mito's heart melted at that moment; women are emotional beings, especially towards their descendants.
Tsunade was about to say something to stop it all when Mito glanced at her, and Tsunade immediately shut up, pouting.
Biwako Sarutobi looked on with envy. She could read bone structures, and judging from Uchiha Rou's bone structure, she was sure to be a great beauty in the future. She really wanted to touch her.
Uchiha Kō's voice rang out again, "I hereby declare the full moon celebration officially open! I'll start with the first song!"
The song is called "Bluebird"!
Tsunade was taken aback. The first program was her own husband's! She hadn't heard him mention it! That guy! He's up to something again, keeping quiet all the time! But right now, listening to music is the most important thing!
Without realizing it, Tsunade sat up straight and looked at the big screen!
Uzumaki Mito also looked up at the big screen, surprised that Uchiha Kō could sing! She glanced at Tsunade and realized that Tsunade didn't know either.
Finally, she smiled, a hint of expectation in her heart.
All that could be heard was Uchiha Kō singing.
As you spread your wings and take flight, make a firm decision never to look back.
Our goal is that deep blue sky.
Never truly understood the taste of "sadness".
But they have already begun to explore the meaning of "pain".
Even the feelings I have for you
At this moment, it all transforms into a thousand words... (translated Chinese lyrics)
Uchiha Kō was not Hokage Haori's robes at the moment, but a tailcoat. His voice was clear, high-pitched, and very exciting to listen to.
The song is about how birds should aspire to fly to the sky. This bird represents many things, Hyuga Branch Family, it represents themselves. They were moved to tears, and the audience cheered wildly, "Long live the Hokage!"
Young people, on the other hand, are thinking about themselves, believing that one day they will be able to soar through the skies and carve out their own path!
As for the girls, their eyes were filled with admiration as they stared at Uchiha Kō "Lord Owl! Lord Owl! Lord Owl!" They couldn't understand how a man could be so handsome, and even more charming after marriage!
The song continued, and the audience erupted in frenzy. Even the Anbu) began to maintain order! They also thought the Lord Hokage sang well, but they hadn't expected him to evoke such fervor and excitement in these people!
