The Land of Fire's Daimyo Stabbed the Third Hokage in the Back

"Hehehe, Jingyi, I was pretty amazing, right?"

Kushina suddenly became a little embarrassed.

"..."

Watching the little girl start to get cocky, Jingyi nodded speechlessly.

"Yes, very amazing. You single-handedly dragged all Five Great Shinobi Villages into war. Kushina, you could be said to have rewritten history—the first person in history to do so.

As long as they had not caught her in the act, suspicion would remain nothing more than suspicion.

That was, provided Kushina did not expose herself.

That way, even if Kumogakure
