Resolving Misunderstandings, Kumogakure Raikage Succession Ceremony

Uchiha Rou watched Uchiha Itachi and Sasuke Uchiha away, she sighed. She didn't know why, but she just wanted to go against this little guy!

I wonder if Itachi will be angry then, and think I'm a bad girl! She shook her head, deciding not to think about it anymore! She'd already done it all! At worst, she'd just have to be more accommodating to that little guy in the future!

Let's wait until Itachi comes tomorrow and sound him out. With that, Uchiha Rou rallied her spirits and fought Uchiha Shisui for a while longer. Then, seeing that it was almost time, Uchiha Shisui prepared to end class.

"Rou Rou, are you sure you can go back by yourself?" Uchiha Shisui asked seriously, after all, Uchiha Rou's identity was special, and her safety was the most important thing!

Uchiha Rou nodded. "It's alright! Uchiha Shisui -nii, Konoha is still very safe!" Uchiha Rou smiled, and Uchiha Shisui nodded. "Alright, then I'll be going now!" As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of his home.

Uchiha Rou nodded. "Uchiha Shisui- bye, Shisui-nii~ See you tomorrow~"

Uchiha Shisui waved his hand. "See you tomorrow!"

Then he disappeared in a flash. Uchiha Shisui's speed was among the top five in Konoha!

Uchiha Rou sighed and turned to walk in the opposite direction, but as soon as he turned his head, he felt as if he had bumped into something hard!

"Ouch!" Uchiha Rou's hand was grabbed. Her heart tightened, and she quickly opened her eyes to find it was Uchiha Itachi.

She was taken aback. "Itachi-nii, didn't you just take Sasuke home?"

"Yes, it's been sent back." Beads of sweat were faintly visible on Uchiha Itachi's forehead, and his tight-fitting shirt was somewhat transparent due to the sweat, revealing his abdominal muscles.

"Is it okay for him to be home alone?" Uchiha Rou asked cautiously.

"No, Mom and Dad are home too, I'm not alone," Uchiha Itachi said.

"Let's go, I'll take you home." Although Uchiha Itachi Uchiha Rou was actually a bit temperamental. Uchiha Itachi was only taking care of his younger brother and leaving her here to go home by himself.

However, she knew how important Sasuke Uchiha to Uchiha Itachi, so she didn't cry or make a scene. She felt uncomfortable, but she didn't say anything! Now, after Uchiha Itachi saw Sasuke Uchiha, he immediately came to the school to find her and offered to take her home.

Her heart warmed, and all the unpleasantness from before vanished. "Okay~ Itachi-nii, but before that, squat down!" Uchiha Rou's eyes seemed to sparkle with starlight.

Uchiha Itachi's heart skipped a beat. He didn't know what Uchiha Rou was going to do, but he did as she said. He squatted down and looked at Uchiha Rou's clothes. At that moment, he felt a cool sensation on the top of his head.

Uchiha Itachi's pupils contracted. At this moment?

Uchiha Rou took out a wet wipe from her bag and wiped Uchiha Itachi's head and neck. She'd come in such a rush and was sweating so much; he must be uncomfortable.

After wiping herself Uchiha Rou said, "You can get up now, Itachi-nii!"

Uchiha Itachi stood up, hesitating as if to speak, but Uchiha Rou smiled and said, "It's a wet wipe. Itachi-nii came in such a hurry, his head and neck are sweaty, I think wiping them off will make him feel better."

Uchiha Rou's words struck a chord with Uchiha Itachi. Rou Rou was so Rou Rou, so considerate, he longed for her! His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and his expression changed. "What am I thinking?!" Uchiha Itachi mentally slapped himself, and after calming down, he stood up.

"I feel much better now~ Thank you Rou Rou!" Uchiha Itachi smiled.

Uchiha Rou chuckled, then extended her fair hand. "Hey~ let's go!"

Uchiha Itachi dismissed his own thoughts and took Rou Rou's hand. "Let's go."

At the same time, he thought to himself, "If we're brother and sister, holding hands shouldn't be a problem, right?" The two walked together toward the Hokage Villa, with Uchiha Rou humming a song along the way.

Uchiha Rou has a very pleasant voice, perhaps inherited from Uchiha Kō. After all, the song "Bluebird" from the Full Moon Banquet is still at the top of the Konoha song charts and remains incredibly popular, even becoming a must-sing song at Konoha karaoke.

However, the other singers' Uchiha Kō's!

The two walked along the road, one humming a song and the other remaining silent. If you didn't consider their ages, they would look like a couple.

"Um, Itachi-nii, is Sasuke alright...? What I just said..." Uchiha Rou suddenly stopped, a hint of disappointment on her face. If her words had angered Itachi-nii, she was willing to apologize.

"He's fine. What Rou Rou said was the truth. There's nothing to apologize for." Uchiha Itachi turned to look at Uchiha Rou, a smile in his eyes.

Uchiha Rou breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm so glad Itachi-nii wasn't angry with me because of Sasuke!" she patted her chest.

"On the contrary, I should apologize to you on behalf of Sasuke. That kid was spoiled rotten by his family!" Uchiha Itachi said.

Uchiha Rou shook her head. "No, no, he's just young and doesn't know any better. There's no need to apologize."

"He's only a year younger than you, you don't need to speak up for him. Being immature is being immature!" Uchiha Itachi snorted.

"Brother Itachi, I didn't take it to heart. Okay~ Don't think about it anymore. We're almost home, I'm going back now~" Uchiha Rou smiled, then skipped home like an elf.

Just then, Tsunade came out and saw Uchiha Rou walking towards the house. She smiled, opened her arms, and Uchiha Rou called out, "Mom~ I'm home!" Then, like a swallow returning to its nest, she threw herself into Tsunade's arms.

"Oh~ my sweet daughter! How was your day? What did you learn?" Tsunade smiled radiantly, hugged her daughter, and kissed her forehead.

Uchiha Rou began recounting what she had learned at school and the battles she had fought that day, but she kept Sasuke's story a secret.

"You mean Itachi brought you back? Where is he?" Tsunade put her daughter down, Uchiha Rou stood up and turned around, pointing to the spot where Uchiha Itachi had been standing, only to find no one there.

"Huh? He was just standing there!" Uchiha Rou exclaimed in surprise, while Tsunade seemed thoughtful. "Maybe he went back to take care of something. Rou Rou, come in quickly and have some dinner."

"Alright~" Uchiha Rou didn't think much of it; perhaps it was just as Tsunade had said, and she went off to get busy.

Hokage Office

Uchiha Kō sat cross-legged in the main seat, looking at the kneeling envoy from Kumogakure without speaking. Nara Rokumei spoke up, "Is the envoy saying that the Fourth Raikage, A, wishes to invite our Lord Hokage to the succession ceremony?"

"That's right, Vice Lord Hokage, that's what Lord A meant," said the envoy from Kumogakure.

Uchiha Kō glanced at Nara Rokumei Nara Rokumei immediately understood. "Did you only invite our Lord Hokage, or did you invite the other Kage as well?"

"Reporting to you, sir, Lord Raikage has already sent envoys to the other three countries, inviting them to participate in the succession ceremony, including Iwagakure," the envoy from Kumogakure replied calmly.

Uchiha Kō fell silent. Originally, he only intended to send someone else to represent him if he couldn't gather everyone, but now that the Fourth Raikage had invited all the Kage, he had no choice but to go!

"Go back and tell your Raikage that I will go in person," Uchiha Kō said after confirming the information.

The envoy from Kumogakure (Kumogakure) beamed with joy. "Thank you, Lord Hokage!" he said, preparing to rise and head towards his village. Uchiha Kō interrupted, "Don't rush off. Give me a copy of the names of those invited to the ceremony, the ceremony schedule, and the staff information. Otherwise, I won't go!"

The envoy from Kumogakure looked troubled. These were not things he could decide on his own! How could he dare agree on the spot? So he said, "Please wait a Lord Hokage -sama, I'm feeling a little unwell."

Uchiha Kō waved his hand in understanding, Kumogakure envoy, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, walked towards the entrance. After asking the guards at the Hokage Building where the restrooms were, he hurried towards them.

He entered the restroom, locked the door, took out his phone, and dialed a number.

Beep beep beep

The call connected, and a voice came from the other end. "Hello? Did you get it done?"

"Lord Raikage, it was done, yet it wasn't!" The envoy seemed somewhat troubled.

"What do you mean? What do you mean by 'successful yet unsuccessful'? Success is success, and failure is failure. What do you mean by 'successful yet unsuccessful'?" Ai, who was about to succeed the Fourth Raikage, frowned and said.

"The Hokage said he needs a list of invited guests, the ceremony schedule, and staff information, otherwise he won't come!" The Kumogakure envoy repeated Uchiha Kō's words.

The Fourth Raikage was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll give you the information now. Remember it."

The envoy from Kumogakure took out a small notebook and a pen and began to take notes. After finishing, the Kumogakure added, "Rest assured Lord Raikage, I will definitely complete the mission!"

"Hmm!" The Fourth Raikage A, hummed in response and hung up the phone.

The envoy from Kumogakure smiled as he carried the document, intending to inform Uchiha Kō of the information. Little did he know that Uchiha Kō had already witnessed the events he had written down through surveillance footage.

This restroom was specifically designed for envoys from other countries, in order to obtain firsthand information. The guards knew this, which is why they pointed him here.

The messenger, brimming with confidence, emerged from the restroom and strode confidently toward Uchiha Kō's office. Seeing this, Uchiha Kō shut down his computer. "Everyone, get ready! Don't give yourself away!"

Nara Rokumei and Hatake Sakumo exchanged a glance and nodded, indicating that they would keep it a secret.

The door creaked open, Uchiha Kō appeared, his expression indifferent, as if nothing had happened. Upon seeing the messenger, he remarked, "Ah, it's the envoy from Kumogakure. That's quite a long wait."
