Chapter 478: A Super Pervert Came to Konoha

Rock Village and Cloud Village? No chance—they're too busy fighting.

Mist Village? Even less likely. The vast sea blocks off nearly 99% of people from reaching it.

And that's during peacetime. In wartime, who would willingly trek all the way to Mist Village to issue commissions?

For Konoha, it's a golden opportunity. The influx of high-paying commissions is filling the village coffers.

Tsunade couldn't be happier. With each new commission, her smile grew wider.

Meanwhile, in the Uchiha clan's territory, a sneaky figure emerged from the ground. White Zetsu's flexible, spineless neck twisted 360 degrees as he carefully observed his surroundings.

After confirming no one was around, White Zetsu prepared to move to another location to continue his search for a suitable target.

Uchiha Madara's criteria were incredibly demanding. For the sake of the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan, White Zetsu had to work tirelessly to find the right candidate.

White Zetsu wandered through the Uchiha clan territory, unaware that he had been detected.

Nearby, a seemingly ordinary stone shifted slightly.

"Interesting," Shinki murmured as he received word of the intruder.

He had long suspected that Uchiha Madara couldn't sit still. The old man was undoubtedly directing White Zetsu to search for a pawn within the village.

If it weren't for the large number of puppets Shinki had stationed throughout the village, White Zetsu might have gone unnoticed.

After all, White Zetsu's ability to blend with the earth and plants made him exceptionally difficult to detect. How often does someone suspect the grass or soil around them of being a spy?

Should he capture White Zetsu?

Shinki considered it carefully.

The original batch of White Zetsu was small but far stronger than the mass-produced versions that came later. Capturing one could yield valuable insights.

Orochimaru would certainly salivate over such a specimen.

However, doing so might alert Uchiha Madara prematurely.

After weighing the options, Shinki decided against immediate action. Instead, he reinforced the Uchiha clan's territory with even more puppets to monitor White Zetsu's movements.

White Zetsu would keep returning to the Uchiha territory as part of Madara's plans. There would be plenty of opportunities to capture him later—preferably after the wars in the Cloud, Rock, and Mist villages had settled.

For now, it was better to let White Zetsu think he was unnoticed.

White Zetsu, blissfully unaware of how close he was to being captured, continued wandering around Konoha.

Whether it was searching for Madara's pawn or peeking at people using the bathroom, White Zetsu kept busy.

Yes, the bathroom.

Shinki, who had been monitoring White Zetsu through his puppets, couldn't help but feel disgusted.

Apparently, White Zetsu wasn't doing this for any perverted reason but to observe people's reactions and habits while using the toilet—perhaps to better understand human behavior.

Still, the thought of someone lurking underground and spying on others during such a private moment was revolting.

Imagine taking a peaceful bathroom break, only to have a pervert secretly watching you the whole time.

It was beyond unsettling.

The Uchiha clan had no idea about White Zetsu's presence or his bizarre tendencies.

Shinki sighed, sparing a moment of sympathy for the unsuspecting Uchihas.

After a brief pause, he made some adjustments to his plans.

Later that afternoon, Tsunade returned home from work with Uchiha Mikoto.

As she opened the door, the aroma of freshly cooked food greeted her, along with Kushina's cheerful laughter.

Switching into her slippers, Tsunade walked into the living room and greeted Pakura, who was lounging on the sofa.

After exchanging nods, Tsunade glanced toward the room where Kushina and Hyuga Mehu were playing.

Is this a gathering?

Curious, Tsunade headed into the kitchen, where she found Shinki cooking. She patted him on the back and asked in a low voice, "Why did you call everyone here?"

Without turning around, Shinki replied, "You'll find out soon. Dinner's almost ready."

"Alright."

Satisfied with his response, Tsunade left the kitchen and joined the others in the living room.

"We're back!"

The front door opened as Nawaki and Namikaze Minato arrived.

Nawaki's loud voice echoed through the house until Tsunade silenced him with a glare. He sheepishly followed Minato to wash their hands before sitting quietly at the dining table.

"You can eat now. We'll talk after the meal," Shinki announced as he placed the final dish on the table.

"Delicious!"

Nawaki was the first to dig in, eagerly grabbing a piece of meat. The others quickly followed suit, enjoying the feast.

After the meal, everyone gathered in the living room to rest.

Tsunade, playing the role of the big sister, leaned back with a toothpick in her mouth. "Alright, Shinki. Spill it. What's going on?"

Everyone turned to Shinki with curious expressions.

Shinki calmly placed a map on the coffee table and said, "These marked locations are the toilets you should use from now on. Memorize them."

"???"

Everyone stared at him, baffled.

Tsunade frowned, slapping the coffee table. "Shinki, don't tell me you're micromanaging toilet breaks now!"

The others exchanged bewildered looks. Even Nawaki and Minato, who had seen plenty of strange things, were left speechless.

"Let me explain."

Shinki sipped his tea, unfazed by their reactions.

"Recently, a pervert with exceptional hiding abilities has been sneaking around the village. He seems particularly interested in lurking near the Uchiha clan—and worse, he's been spying on people using the toilet."

"WHAT?!"

Tsunade and Kushina shouted in unison.

Pakura's eyes widened, while Hyuga Mehu and Uchiha Mikoto turned pale.

"Yes, you heard me right. This pervert doesn't care about anything else—he's just obsessed with watching people in the bathroom. It's not about lust or anything like that; it's purely curiosity."

Shinki shook his head, disgust evident on his face.

"Still, it's disturbing. I don't want any of you to experience such a violation of privacy, so I marked the safest toilets in the village. These locations are under constant surveillance by my puppets."

The room fell silent.

After a moment, Kushina muttered, "That's... disgusting."

Tsunade clenched her fists, her face turning red with anger.

"Don't worry," Shinki said. "I'm keeping a close eye on him. If this pervert dares cross the line, I'll deal with him personally."
