"Ku... Kushina?"
Gripping his Ghost Tiger, Uchiha Yue seized the opportunity presented by Lan Xiangrong, preparing to kill him. (The website provides the fastest updates.)
Who would have thought...
Just as Uchiha Yue's Ghost Tiger was about to reap Lan Xiangrong's life, Lan Xiangrong in front of him suddenly transformed into Kushina Uzumaki!
At the same time, Kushina Uzumaki looked at Uchiha Yue with a serious expression, her gaze slowly drifting to the Ghost Tiger in his hand. Then, Kushina Uzumaki stepped forward and patted Uchiha Yue's shoulder, asking in a low voice, "Tsuki, what's wrong with you? When I called you just now, you stood there motionless. Now, you're even trying to ambush me. What's going on?"
"Kushina, I'm sorry."
Upon hearing Kushina Uzumaki's words, Uchiha Yue suddenly realized that he had likely been under Genjutsu. Otherwise, how could he have seen through the enemy's disguise with his Purple Eye Uchiha Yue, and how could he have used Ninjutsu without consuming Chakra? Now, seeing Kushina Uzumaki right in front of him, and considering her words, Kushina Uzumaki felt even more Uchiha Yue that there was something strange about the house they were in.
Then, after Uchiha Yue took a deep breath, he said to Kushina Uzumaki, "Kushina, if I'm not mistaken, I was already under the enemy's Genjutsu when we infiltrated this house. Moreover, the enemy's Genjutsu was extremely high-level; I didn't even realize how they cast Genjutsu. Although I don't know who the enemy is, I'm certain that the inhabitants of this house are strange!"
Uchiha Yue paused slightly, her gaze fixed on the house in front of her, and continued, "Remember? When I first arrived in Licorice Town, I sensed a faint Chakra fluctuation. Now, I'm certain that Chakra fluctuation originated from this house. Moreover, the lightning strike incident is likely directly related to the residents of this house. We must be careful!"
"Genjutsu?"
When they arrived at Uchiha Yue's location, even Kushina Uzumaki was somewhat surprised, as she knew very well how astonishing Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy was. Seeing that Uchiha Yue's words didn't seem fake, Kushina Uzumaki's expression grew even more serious, and she immediately said, "Tsukuyomi, if even you fell for their Genjutsu, then the enemy's Genjutsu skills are probably extremely high. If we continue to infiltrate now, there's a high chance of something unexpected happening. Let's go back first!"
"Alright!"
Having been inexplicably caught in the opponent's Genjutsu, Uchiha Yue was also in a very bad mood, making him more prone to making mistakes when infiltrating. So, as soon as Kushina Uzumaki finished speaking, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly and followed her back to his house. However, on the way back, Uchiha Yue still couldn't forget the feeling of being in Kushina Uzumaki Genjutsu, because at that time, he was completely unaware that he was in a fantasy world, and even now, the Uchiha Yue in the fantasy world felt incredibly real when he recalled them.
Immediately afterwards...
After Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki returned to their house, Minato Namikaze and Hizashi Hyuga came into their view. Without hesitation, Kushina Uzumaki approached them and said seriously, "Minato, Hizashi Hyuga, there seems to be something wrong with the residents next door. When Minato Namikaze and I sneaked in, Hizashi was immediately caught in their Genjutsu. Clearly, the person living there is a master of Genjutsu!"
"Yes, Hizashi and I are dealing with this matter."
Upon hearing Kushina Uzumaki's words, Minato Namikaze nodded and said, "When Hizashi returned just now, he brought back some useful information. Let Hizashi and you discuss it now!"
"Good!"
As soon as Minato Namikaze finished speaking, Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki nodded simultaneously, then turned their gazes to Hizashi Hyuga.
Hyuga Hizashi took a deep breath and slowly explained to Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki, "When I went out to gather information, I also heard that the residents next door were acting strangely. So, before Hizashi Hyuga, I sneaked into the house next door and discovered something truly remarkable!"
"So, the family living next door to us is also a member of a ninja clan!"
"However, they are not ordinary ninjas, but missing-nin! missing-nin from our Konoha!"
"Missing-nin?"
Just as Uchiha Yue Hizashi Hyuga, a glint of light flashed in Uchiha Yue's eyes as he analyzed, "The family next door are missing-nin from Konoha, possessing formidable Genjutsu abilities and the ability to manipulate lightning to unleash Ninjutsu! If I'm not mistaken, our neighbors are probably ninjas from the Kurama Clan in our village, right? Only the Kurama Clan's ability to control their five senses could simultaneously grant them such powerful Genjutsu abilities and the ability to manipulate lightning to unleash Ninjutsu!"
"Yes, Tsuki-kun, you think the same way I do!"
After Uchiha Yue analyzed the situation, Minato Namikaze nodded gravely and said, "I never expected that there would be missing-nin from the Kurama Clan hiding in Licorice Town. However, the missing-nin from the Kurama Clan shouldn't have any ill intentions towards us, otherwise they would have simply passed our information to those guys in Sunagakure and Yakunin Village. But I don't understand why they attacked us. Do they just want us to leave here quickly?"
"No, that's impossible!"
Upon hearing Minato Namikaze's words, Kushina Uzumaki shook her head immediately, saying, "Among us, only Yue was attacked. Moreover, only Yue sensed that faint Chakra fluctuation. Therefore, I deduce that the Kurama Clan didn't discover our identities. It was only Yue who noticed their identities, leading them to plan to harm him, thus making it easier for them to continue hiding in Licorice Town."
"And..."
Kushina Uzumaki paused slightly before continuing, "Furthermore, the missing civilians in Licorice Town are very likely connected to the Kurama Clan ninjas. In other words, those rogue Kurama Clan missing-nin are definitely not just hiding in Licorice Town. They are likely hiding some unknown secrets. Minato, I think we should infiltrate their homes tonight and capture all those rogue Kurama Clan missing-nin!"
"No!"
Just as Kushina Uzumaki was about to say this, Uchiha Yue suddenly shook his head, which slightly puzzled Kushina Uzumaki Minato Namikaze, and the others. Their gazes all turned to Uchiha Yue. Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Uchiha Yue, recalling the original story, suddenly smiled and said to them, "I think those missing-nin of the Kurama Clan are innocent!"
"The one who really attacked us was someone else!"
