"Someone else?"
At this moment, Minato Namikaze, Kushina Uzumaki, and Hizashi Hyuga all stared at Uchiha Yue Minato Namikaze, believing he was still trapped in the enemy's Genjutsu. However, seeing Uchiha Yue's confident smile, Hizashi Hyuga Kushina Uzumaki Uchiha Yue, clearly waiting for an explanation.
However, to everyone's surprise, when Uchiha Yue said this, he suddenly changed the subject and looked at Kushina Uzumaki, asking, "Kushina, are you free tomorrow?"
"Ah?"
Kushina Uzumaki paused for a moment, then said, "Moonlight, I'm free. What do you want to do?"
"I'm glad you have time!"
Hearing Kushina Uzumaki's reply, Uchiha Yue nodded slightly and said, "Kushina, if you have time tomorrow, why don't you come with me to visit our neighbors next door? If my deduction is correct, our neighbors next door have probably been troubled by that monster for quite some time. Since we've come to Licorice Town, we can do something for the common people here and rid them of that damned monster!"
"Monster?"
Just as Uchiha Yue finished speaking, Kushina Uzumaki raised her eyebrows slightly, stepped forward, and grabbed Uchiha Yue's shoulder, saying, "Tsukiyomi, you know I don't like suspense, so you have to tell me now what you've discovered! If you don't tell me, even though you're injured, I'll still teach you a lesson! Don't forget, Minato and I are your Jonin instructors, and now you're my subordinate!"
Kushina, calm down!
Seeing that Kushina Uzumaki was about to give Uchiha Yue a good beating, Minato Namikaze quickly came to her side and said, "Kushina, you should accompany Kushina Uzumaki tomorrow. Please don't get angry! Tsukuyomi's injuries haven't healed yet, you can't just watch him get worse! I think we should rest today! Tomorrow, Kushina, you can accompany Tsukuyomi to visit our neighbors, it's only proper etiquette!"
"Okay, fine!"
Seeing that Minato Namikaze was in such a state, Kushina Uzumaki naturally had no intention of continuing to entangle Uchiha Yue. She merely raised her fist at him as she left. However, Uchiha Yue didn't take Kushina Uzumaki's threat to heart. He simply wanted to make good use of what he had discovered to improve his strength.
Indeed, when Uchiha Yue learned that the resident next door was a ninja from the Kurama Clan, he understood why so many strange things had happened in Licorice Town.
In truth, Uchiha Yue didn't know much about the Kurama Clan ninjas, and even within Konoha, the Kurama Clan wasn't considered a particularly powerful family. However, according to Uchiha Fugaku's intelligence, Uchiha Yue knew that the Kurama Clan had been a prominent family in Konoha before the Second World War. Furthermore, the Kurama Clan's Genjutsu was extremely powerful; even with Uchiha Yue's Sharingan, it was difficult to see through their Kurama Clan Genjutsu.
Unfortunately, the Kurama Clan began to decline during World War II because their powerful Genjutsu disappeared.
The Kurama Clan's genjutsu (Genjutsu techniques) is also a type of Kekkei Genkai. Only by awakening their clan's Kekkei Genkai can Kurama Clan ninjas possess powerful Genjutsu, even those capable of confusing Genjutsu Sharingan. However, because the Kurama Clan's Kekkei Genkai is extremely difficult to awaken, the Kurama Clan gradually declined and was even suppressed by the powerful Uchiha Clan, becoming a second-rate clan in Konoha. Currently, the Kurama Clan's situation in Konoha is even worse than that of the Hatake Clan Kurama Clan, demonstrating their extremely miserable state within the Konoha.
Therefore, upon hearing Hizashi Hyuga's description, Uchiha Yue guessed that his neighbor was a ninja from the Kurama Clan, thanks to his knowledge of the original story. The original story mentions a ninja who awakened the Kurama Clan's Kekkei Genkai, named Yakumo Kurama. Furthermore, it was precisely this knowledge of the character Yakumo Kurama that allowed Uchiha Yue to deduce the true nature of the monsters that occurred in Licorice Town.
Because, among the Kurama Clan ninjas living next to Uchiha Yue, one of them should have awakened the Kurama Clan's Kekkei Genkai. However, that Kurama Clan ninja was unaware of his Kekkei Genkai awakening, and his situation might even be similar to Yakumo Kurama in the original story, where he subconsciously awakened the Kurama Clan's Kekkei Genkai!
It's important to know that awakening the Kekkei Genkai of the Kurama Clan has certain side effects.
If the Kurama Clan's Kekkei Genkai is not fully awakened, that terrifying Kekkei Genkai can transform into the Monster Ido, hiding within the body of the Kurama Clan ninja. Moreover, the Monster Ido can gradually change the personality of the Kurama Clan ninja it inhabits through its own power. Even worse, the Monster Ido enjoys using its powerful Genjutsu abilities to slaughter the host's family, friends, and even complete strangers.
"If I'm not mistaken, then the strange things happening in Licorice Town must all be caused by the Monster Ido!"
"If I can successfully seal the Monster Ido with Kushina's help..."
"Then I can rely on the power of the Monster Ido to possess the terrifying Genjutsu abilities of the Kurama Clan!"
Back in his room, Uchiha Yue was still thinking about the Monster Ido, so he naturally went to bed a little later.
Furthermore, Uchiha Yue was even more concerned about the Monster Ido attacking him, since in the entire Licorice Town, only Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki were able to discern Monster Ido's true identity. However, Monster Ido shouldn't be very strong at this stage, otherwise it could have easily used Genjutsu to kill Uchiha Yue of being able to escape at the crucial moment.
So, Uchiha Yue rested well in his room for the night, and the next morning, he prepared to visit his neighbors with Kushina Uzumaki.
However, Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki never expected that when they arrived at the door next door, preparing to visit the Kurama Clan ninjas, they would find the entire house deserted. Seeing this, Uchiha Yue the Kurama Clan Kushina Uzumaki on guard and prepared to take Kushina Uzumaki to Licorice Town to investigate their whereabouts.
Who would have thought...
Just as Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki were about to begin their investigation, Hizashi Hyuga suddenly appeared before them.
Moreover, Uchiha Yue saw a smug smile on Hizashi Hyuga's face.
Immediately afterwards, Hizashi Hyuga appeared before Uchiha Yue and Kushina Uzumaki, smiling as he said, "Tsuki-kun, Kushina, you don't need to go and visit them."
"Those Kurama Clan ninjas have come to visit us!"
