"You're saying this person followed you after you left Lady Mito's house, then tried to hypnotize you with Genjutsu, but was instead counter-hypnotized by your Sharingan?" In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen asked back with a strange expression.
He had just returned from Uzumaki Mito's place when he saw Uchiha Kage looking for him at the Hokage's office. He received him, after all, he was his nephew.
"Ah! To be honest, the other party was a bit stupid, trying to use Genjutsu to hypnotize me. Otherwise, I would not have been his opponent!" Uchiha Kage shrugged. "He should be a spy from another village, investigating Grandma Mito's situation!"
At the same time, he walked to two red packet locations in the Hokage's office and silently opened the two red packets.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for opening a red packet and obtaining Shuttlecock Aerobics! Performing it for a long time can improve physical fitness." So, this kind of training method has spread to the Naruto world?
"Ding, congratulations to the host for opening a red packet and obtaining 3.1% progress for the Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo template. Do you wish to fuse?" Obtaining so much progress in one go also made Uchiha Kage happy. Sure enough, the Hokage's office was his blessed land!
Hearing Uchiha Kage's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression became serious. He made a hand gesture, and a white-haired ninja wearing a mask entered the Hokage's office.
Uchiha Kage looked at the other party curiously. He felt a sense of threat from him. The other party's strength was above Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru. Coupled with the short sword on his back, he should be the legendary White Fang.
On White Fang's head, there was also an instruction red packet: Prevent White Fang from committing suicide.
This red packet made Uchiha Kage a bit silent. White Fang's death was indeed a point of criticism against Sarutobi Hiruzen by people in his previous life.
However, preventing White Fang's death shouldn't be a problem for Uchiha Kage. After all, who knows to what extent his strength will have grown by that time.
"Take him down and interrogate him thoroughly!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a serious tone.
If it were an ordinary spy, it wouldn't be enough to make Sarutobi Hiruzen so on guard. But since it involved Uzumaki Mito, the situation became different.
"Yes!" White Fang said hurriedly, then took the person away.
After White Fang left, Sarutobi Hiruzen invited Uchiha Kage and Mikoto to sit down and said with emotion, "You kid, you're really lucky. That guy is at least a Chūnin. If he hadn't rashly used Genjutsu on you, you probably wouldn't have been able to control him. In the future, when you encounter such people, don't lead them to deserted places. Just walk towards crowded places, or even the Hokage's office is fine."
"Mn!" Uchiha Kage didn't refute upon hearing this. He also knew that Sarutobi Hiruzen meant well.
To encounter a spy just by going to Uzumaki Mito's house, there was no one else like him.
"How are things at the academy?" Sarutobi Hiruzen then asked Uchiha Kage about his well-being. After chatting for a while, Uchiha Kage left with Mikoto.
After the two left, the originally smiling Sarutobi Hiruzen's face became serious. Someone had started to investigate Uzumaki Mito's situation. This was not a good thing!
It seems that the peace has lasted for too long, and some people are starting to get restless.
This is not a good thing!
...
The matter of the spy did not affect Uchiha Kage. In the following days, he continued to attend school as usual, seemingly immersing himself in the identity of an ordinary student.
However, he did not slack off in his own training. He had been working hard to train his strength. At the same time, he would wander around the village from time to time, opening those red packets and obtaining many good things. His strength was also improving rapidly.
Unconsciously, a year passed!
Today, Nawaki, who was usually early to the classroom, was miraculously late.
"Nawaki, you're late today?" Minato, who was Nawaki's deskmate, asked curiously.
"A relative of mine is attending school here. I was accompanying her, so I was a little late!" Nawaki scratched his head.
He had been trying hard to be a good student, even if his grades in cultural subjects were not particularly good.
But being late or leaving early was non-existent for Nawaki.
"Your relative?" The corner of Uchiha Kage's mouth twitched. Could it be that person?
"Ah, a relative from the Land of Whirlpools. It seems she's Grandma Mito's younger brother's granddaughter, so she's my little sister, I guess!" Nawaki patiently explained.
Uchiha Kage showed a look of understanding. It was probably Uzumaki Kushina, no doubt.
Being sent to Konoha, doesn't that mean Uzumaki Mito's days are numbered?
This year, Uchiha Kage would often go to Uzumaki Mito's place to cook. He had also obtained many benefits from Uzumaki Mito, especially in the area of Sealing Jutsu; Uchiha Kage had already gotten started.
This made Uchiha Kage have great respect for this old lady. Even though he didn't know why Uzumaki Mito had a special fondness for him. Could it be because his cooking was particularly good?
Sure enough, a cook can really gain favoritism.
