Root's Files and Yugao's Shock

Rikuto did not expose him.

There was no rash or deliberate attempt to confess my feelings.

He knew his actions were too sudden, and that Uzuki Yugao would need some time to adjust.

But both of them were somewhat aware of something unspoken.

"My cooking skills are limited and can't compare to those of Senior Kurenai and Miss Nanako, please don't mind..." Uzuki Yugao served rice to Rikuto and then served herself a bowl.

· ··Requesting flowers·· ·····

He sat down opposite Rikuto.

Her face flushed slightly, and she spoke softly.

"Of course not, it smells delicious..."

Rikuto smiled and said, "Then, I'll start eating!"

"Hmm..." Uzuki Yugao looked at Rikuto had begun to taste it.

Her stunningly beautiful face showed a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

"My assessment is this..." Rikuto gave a thumbs up and praised with a grin, "I knew it! How could Sister Yugao's cooking be bad?"

"Real?"

Uzuki Yugao was somewhat incredulous.

"Of course..." Rikuto's eyes were full of laughter as he picked up a piece of chicken and held it to Uzuki Yugao's lips. "If you don't believe me, Sister Yugao, try it yourself."

"Sweetie, open your mouth!"

Uzuki Yugao rolled her eyes at Rikuto.

But she didn't refuse, blushing as she opened her small, bright red mouth.

She parted her pearly teeth slightly, biting into the chicken that Rikuto had placed on her plate, savoring it slowly and deliberately.

0...

Hmm, the taste is actually pretty good.

Time passed.

The two were having their meal.

They chatted casually.

Rikuto inquired about Uzuki Yugao's life in the Anbu.

Uzuki Yugao then inquired about the Rikuto's experiences outside.

When it came to things they shouldn't ask, they both tactfully avoided the topic.

Watching Rikuto eat bowl after bowl, enjoying it immensely...

The rice I cooked was almost not enough.

Uzuki Yugao couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.

Thank you for your hospitality!

A long time.

Rikuto was satisfied and put down his rice bowl.

Looking at the several empty plates, he smiled and said, "Sister Yugao's cooking is just right for my taste!"

To be honest...

Whether it's Uzuki Yugao or Kurenai Yuhi.

She has a gentle personality, is good at housework, and is also a decent cook.

They are both the epitome of virtuous wives and loving mothers.

And there's Hinata in the future...

That's highly likely.

"Rikuto, if you like it, come over again whenever you have time..."

As Uzuki Yugao prepared to clear the dishes, a hint of joy welled up inside her.

Her face flushed slightly, and she turned her head to say softly, "Anyway, I'm already considered alone, so it'll be more lively with two people!"

That's great!

Rikuto smiled and said.

He certainly wouldn't miss such an opportunity to get close to Uzuki Yugao.

Furthermore, Kurenai Yuhi and Anko aren't always in Konoha.

It's just right for them to overlap.

"Sister Yugao..." Looking at the beautiful and charming Uzuki Yugao, Rikuto said with a smile, "How about I take you from the Third Hokage?"

What's a girl doing fighting and killing in a place like the Anbu, where people do dirty work?

I'd rather be his assistant.

"Ah!?"

... Dry.

Chapter 206 The Root's Files, Shocking Yugao

[Should we take her from the Third...?]

Staring blankly at Rikuto's astonishing words, Uzuki Yugao was stunned.

After realizing what had happened, her pretty face turned bright red.

"This... let's forget about it!"

Although she had to admit that she was genuinely honored and happy when she was initially chosen to join the Anbu as a substitute.

But because of this, they gradually witnessed a darker, bloodier, and crueler side of Konoha than usual.

Even those high-ranking officials who appear upright, righteous, and awe-inspiring are not as honest and selfless as one might imagine.

Even the Third Hokage, who usually appeared kind, compassionate, and approachable, wasn't as benevolent as he seemed.

She did not particularly like life in the Anbu.

However, Uzuki Yugao had various concerns.

They were also afraid of causing trouble for the Rikuto.

Naturally, I politely declined.

"So, Sister Yugao has long been tired of life in the Anbu?"

Rikuto understood what was going on.

"Indeed, but I am, after all..."

Mao Yuexi, with a helpless expression, was about to say something.

"No buts..." Having confirmed Uzuki Yugao's intentions, Rikuto waved his hand and said with a smile, "Sister Yugao, you don't need to worry about these things, just leave them to me!"

"No, Rikuto, you don't understand..."

What she feared most was not being unable to leave the Anbu, or arousing the suspicion of the Third Hokage.

Instead, she feared that the Third Hokage might outwardly agree to her leaving the Anbu, but secretly order her to monitor Rikuto.

If that's the case, what should she do?

Will he betray his village for the sake of the Rikuto, or will he accept the mission?

Regardless of whether the Rikuto did anything harmful to the village.

What she did undoubtedly hurt the other person.

They were even less able to directly confront the Rikuto.

"I know, you mean that nine times out of ten, the higher-ups will have you secretly spying on me, right?" Rikuto said with a smile.

"Rikuto..."

Uzuki Yugao gazed at Rikuto now seemed to see right through her.

She nodded slightly, feeling helpless.

She lowered her head sadly. "It's good that you know!"

She was unwilling to get involved in those dirty political matters.

But having spent so many years in the Anbu, he naturally wasn't completely unaware of these things.

It's very clear just how special the Rikuto are.

Even the Uchiha Clan's higher-ups directly ordered the Anbu to monitor them 24/7.

Moreover, this is a mere ten-year-old who has mastered the First Hokage's Wood Release, possessing unbelievably strong abilities, and is not under the control of the higher- Rikuto?

The reason they dared not give orders to Anko and Kurenai Yuhi was because they believed that the two had close ties with the Rikuto and were unlikely to side with them.

But as someone from the Anbu, she had little contact with the Rikuto and was used to being a "tool" who obeyed orders, which made her different.

If only we could plant spies among the Rikuto.

It's conceivable that those in high positions would not let such an opportunity slip by.

Even if the Third Hokage appeared outwardly righteous, he was probably no exception in many ways.

They only knew how to "appease her with reason and emotion," using the excuse of "everything for the village" to get her to monitor the Rikuto.

"Come with me..."

Rikuto smiled slightly.

She gently embraced the astonished Uzuki Yugao.

He took her with him and vanished from the room in an instant.

"Brush!"

The next moment.

He directly took Uzuki Yugao with him.

We arrived at the base.

"This is..."

Looking into the spacious, bright, and ridiculously large enclosed room.

Hundreds of identical Rikuto were there, inscribing densely packed spells on scrolls and talismans.

Uzuki Yugao was somewhat stunned.

These?

"I'm developing a Forbidden Techniques that can seal any Ninjutsu onto a corresponding medium, and can continuously release it simply by inputting Chakra..."

"For example, using this Forbidden Techniques, the formula for Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique can be completely copied onto a Genin..."

Rikuto didn't keep them in suspense, smiling as he gave an example, "So even if he hasn't mastered the nature transformations of fire, regardless of his talent, he doesn't need to undergo arduous training and study..."

"As long as you have enough Chakra, you can easily master and unleash the Great Fireball Technique!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing this...

Uzuki Yugao's eyes widened.

He opened his mouth wide, staring at Rikuto in shock.

Some couldn't believe it. "Is this really possible?"

This completely overturned her understanding of the world.

It disregards individual talent and ability, and doesn't even require arduous training.
