"Looks like Orochimaru guessed right!" Tsunade said leisurely.
Itō Yuying said, "His target now should be the Tailed Beasts. The Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails are both in the village now, so there shouldn't be any problem. Apart from the One-Tail and Seven-Tails, the other villages' Tailed Beasts are all training in the Secret Realm Space. That shouldn't be a problem either."
Tsunade pondered for a moment, then said, "Should we notify Sunagakure and Long Ninja Village?"
"Let them know! If they don't understand the rest, that's their own problem," Itō Yuying said.
"All right." With that, Tsunade walked over to an Anbu member and explained the situation. The Anbu member respectfully departed.
Mito Uzumaki asked, "Yuying, what are your plans now?"
Itō Yuying said, "First, we still need to protect you. I'll stay here every day, and with the four from the base protecting you too, there shouldn't be any problem."
Mito Uzumaki looked at Itō Yuying in surprise and said, "Surely there's no need to mobilize so many people!"
Itō Yuying said, "An open attack is easy to dodge, but a hidden one is hard to guard against. We're out in the open, and he's in the shadows. Until we can find him, we can't be too careful. Rest assured about that! It's fine. Don't worry about me. If anything comes up, I can have a clone handle it. Your safety comes first."
Mito Uzumaki was a little moved by his words. She said, "I'm old. I've only been here a little while, and I'm already tired. I'll go back to my room and rest." She turned around and wiped her eyes with her hand.
Itō Yuying nodded and said, "Tsunade, keep sensing Grandma Mito's room at all times. If anything unusual happens, go in immediately. Don't hesitate."
"Understood," Tsunade
