In fact, she knew that if there was any real danger, Kiyoshi had never forced her.
He offered his advice in a calm tone, looking at her with a gentle gaze that held no room for doubt.
And she... simply complied.
They no longer even feel that shame is wrong.
She chose to close her eyes and accept it all—the tail, the collar, the gurgling sounds…
The sense of shame remained, but it sank like a stone to the bottom of the water, sinking deeper and deeper, becoming increasingly still.
Lord Kiyoshi said, "You've adapted very well."
She was actually happy about that.
"rest early."
Uzuki Yugao spoke to the wind gently.
"it is good."
Moonlight Gale nodded, with his usual gentle smile, and left for a moment before returning to his room to rest.
He drifted off to sleep peacefully.
In his dream, he became a healthy person and walked the streets of Konoha with Uzuki Yugao.
Under the warm sunshine, they walked side by side, free from numerous tasks and a stifling, frugal life, only enjoying a healthy romance.
Moonlight on the bed and Gale's lips curled up into a quiet, childlike smile.
In another room, however, Uzuki Yugao was unable to close her eyes for a long time.
She lay in bed, staring at the ceiling.
I wanted to sleep, but I kept thinking about what happened tonight.
……
The Kingdom of Water, the Hidden Mist Village.
"That Kiyoshi guy actually managed to visit in the name of the Hokage."
When Mei Terumi heard the news, her first reaction was disbelief.
Just kidding.
She's barely even a chance to become the Fifth Mizukage, and Kiyoshi has already won the election?
Konoha has such an open atmosphere, not caring about ninja clans or age restrictions?
"Kiyoshi is coming."
Ringo Ameyuri rested her head on her hands and turned to look at Terumi Mei.
After spending a long time with Kiyoshi, Ringo Ameryori learned a bit about his character.
Mei Terumi is in grave danger now.
Thinking of this, Ringo Yuri couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Mei Terumi glanced at Ringo Ameyuri and thought she was acting crazy as usual.
Chapter 350 Information about Uzumaki Enoka, Arrival at Kirigakure
Konoha, root base.
Minato Namikaze is handling official business.
He had only been the second-generation leader of the Roots for a short time, and the overall style of the Roots base was still as dark and gloomy as before.
"Watergate, suppose a large ship is sinking in a wreck. On this ship are many different families, one of whom has contracted a deadly infectious disease. If he is allowed to live, the other nine people will also eventually fall ill and die. If you were the captain of this ship, what would you decide?"
A somewhat sinister voice came from behind Minato Namikaze.
"Lord Danzo, I will not abandon anyone."
Minato Namikaze spoke up.
"Yeah."
Danzo Shimura's right eye, the only part of his eye that was visible, gleamed with an intriguing light.
"Is this how Hiruzen taught you to be so arrogant?"
He sneered.
"Trying to save everything, yet unable to save anything."
"Lord Danzo, what are you trying to say?"
Minato Namikaze may have a mild personality, but that doesn't mean he's stupid.
He knew that Shimura Danzo was implying something, and that the target was very likely... the Uchiha clan.
If you randomly throw an ordinary person into a repressive war and they come back, their psychological age will mature rapidly, and they will have a more comprehensive understanding of issues.
"The Uchiha are an inherently arrogant clan, especially now that they have produced a Hokage. This arrogance will reach its peak."
"Shimura Danzo said in a deep voice."
The Second Hokage was so wary of the Uchiha that he deliberately kept them away from the center of power and even used the prison system as an excuse to set up the Konoha Police Department on the edge of the village.
The Uchiha clan was almost entirely composed of ninjas from the Konoha Police Department, which allowed them to be used in a legitimate and justifiable way to drive the Uchiha clan to the margins.
Now that Kiyoshi Uchiha has become Hokage, the Uchiha clan will inevitably gain more influence.
"Lord Danzo, the Uchiha clan..."
"Do you want to defy the Will of Fire?"
Danzo Shimura immediately shut him down.
Minato Namikaze was stunned.
He wore a bitter expression.
The Will of Fire is a legacy passed down through generations in Konoha. To be truly virtuous and upright, one must possess a pure Will of Fire.
Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to pass the political background hurdle, and would only be able to remain an ordinary ninja for their entire lives, let alone a position like Hokage.
Under the premise of the "Will of Fire," any possibility that could harm the village must be reduced.
The Uchiha clan may be innocent, but the Sharingan within them can turn their love into hatred at any time.
In other words, they are a group of unstable elements.
During wartime, they can become the village's fighting force, but in peacetime, they may turn around and harm the village.
"You probably don't know this, but the Uchiha clan attempted a coup, but Kiyoshi happened to become Hokage, so it didn't succeed."
Danzo Shimura took out a stack of files and placed them on Minato Namikaze's table.
These are all things he once sent Root members to investigate the Uchiha clan.
The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan possesses extremely strong insight, dynamic vision, and the ability to see through chakra pathways and some microscopic levels.
However, they still cannot detect some hidden "surveillance cameras".
These surveillance cameras helped Danzo Shimura obtain a lot of information about the Uchiha clan, but he didn't use them much in private because of Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Minato Namikaze picked up the file and looked at it. It clearly recorded the time and place, the words spoken, and even included pictures.
He became more and more silent as he looked at it.
"What do you want to say?"
In the dim light, Minato Namikaze's expression was unreadable.
He had a good relationship with Kiyoshi, who was also the acting Hokage.
However, the matter concerning the Uchiha clan is indeed of great importance.
Now is not the time to dwell on personal feelings.
"Acting Hokage, not the real Hokage. You haven't passed the probationary period yet, so won't you be the next Hokage?"
Danzo Shimura smiled.
His purpose is simple.
It's better for Minato Namikaze to become Hokage than for Kiyoshi Uchiha to become Hokage, at least Minato Namikaze would listen to the opinions of them, the Hokage advisors.
Uchiha Kiyoshi was extremely capricious; he even delegated administrative duties.
Such people, who have no desire for power whatsoever, are precisely the most terrifying beings.
No one knows what kind of things the Uchiha would do in pursuit of power.
Silence reigned in the room.
Minato Namikaze, of course, wouldn't believe Danzo Shimura's one-sided story. He planned to go and ask Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and the others for more detailed information.
……
The coastline of the Land of Fire.
A white mist, like a thin veil, enveloped the vast ocean.
Kiyoshi and his group had already boarded the fishing boat.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, Kiyoshi and his colleagues kept a low profile.
He could fly there alone using flying ninjutsu, but he couldn't bring too many people with him.
Taking a boat is the best option.
The ship bound for the Land of Lightning had unknowingly sailed far from the shore.
The ship disappeared into the white mist, its shape becoming blurred, but the reflection in the water still stared intently at it.
"The weather doesn't look too good today."
Matt Kai glanced at the boundless sea in the distance, which was now shrouded in deep fog.
The wind brushed against his cheeks, and the once calm ocean began to change.
"A storm may be brewing."
Kakashi walked over to Might Guy.
The ship set sail towards the Land of Water, having left the Land of Fire a day earlier.
The two stood on the deck, looking down at the undulating waves.
As long as one possesses chakra, the ocean is essentially no different from the plains for a ninja.
Even if you accidentally fall, you can climb back up quickly.
"It would be troublesome if someone suddenly attacked."
Matt Kai began to speak.
He is a taijutsu ninja, but reconnaissance is his weak point.
"The Sharingan can see through this fog."
Kakashi pointed to his left eye, which was covered by his ninja headband.
That was the most profound gift Obito left him.
Not being a member of the Uchiha clan, he had no way of closing the Sharingan.
He keeps it running 24 hours a day without interruption, and can only try to minimize the consumption of chakra by closing his eyes.
But it's not all bad; the Sharingan can easily see through the white fog on the sea.
If someone is hiding in the back, they will be as conspicuous as a firefly in the dark.
"Why is the 'Hidden Mist Technique' used by the Hidden Mist Village ninja...?"
Matt Kai seemed somewhat puzzled.
"Idiot, how could fog created using chakra be the same as fog in nature?"
Kakashi said.
