Chapter 69: Clue About Next Instance

Uchiha Mikoto had just been thinking about Uchiha Kage in her room when she saw the figure of the other person pushing the door open and walking in.

Then her eyes quickly glanced downward.

"It shows that I love you very much, and so does it."

Uchiha Kage certainly wouldn't tell the truth at such a time.

Moreover, it would be quite troublesome to explain; he couldn't possibly say that he had already done all the preparatory work with another woman, could he?

"You're really hateful…"

Blushing furiously from the shameless sweet talk, Uchiha Mikoto quickly closed and locked the heavy door after the other person entered.

Not afraid of being laughed at.

"But, was my last visit here yesterday?"

Pulling his newlywed wife onto his lap to sit, Uchiha Kage asked with a serious expression.

Although every time he went to Kaguya's place, it was a continuous day after day, with almost no intervals.

But with Uchiha Mikoto, he had to confirm again.

"Yes, your visit today is almost exactly at the same time as yesterday."

This was also the reason why Uchiha Mikoto was patiently and obediently waiting for Uchiha Kage in the room at this time.

"Then I can rest assured."

This way, at least on the night the clan is annihilated, he can make it in time.

'However, with Sasuke not yet born, it might be a long time before that day comes.'

'Unless… another instance comes up.'

"What are you assured of… ah! Don't…"

Although it wasn't the first time, the conservative Miss Mikoto was still very reserved in protecting her body.

"By the way, is there anything special happening in the village now?"

While arranging the shy Mikoto into yesterday's position, Uchiha Kage curiously asked.

Unlike the era a thousand years ago where Kaguya was, the Uchiha Mikoto of this world was not separated by much time from the Konoha where Uchiha Kage was.

It was a good opportunity to gather more information.

"No… nothing special… ah… it's just that the incident where you repelled the Cloud brothers last time has caused quite a discussion in Konoha and the ninja world, but no one… no one knows your identity, except…", At this point, Uchiha Mikoto's unbearable expression showed a bit of strangeness.

"Except what?", Uchiha Kage slightly paused his rhythm of attack.

"Except for the new Fourth Hokage, and Kushina… they seem to know a little about you," Restlessly twisting her body, the conservative Miss Mikoto had disappeared, now it was the unsatisfied Miss Mikoto.

"Is that so?", Uchiha Kage frowned, 'Kushina and Namikaze Minato knowing about me will most likely appear in the next or the following instance.'

'Just not sure what kind of encounter it will be.'

"I'm not too sure either, when I asked Kushina, she was also vague," After all, being a member of the Uchiha clan, which was guarded against by successive Hokages, Uchiha Mikoto had limited information.

She only knew that the Third Great Ninja War had ended, and it was mostly peaceful now, Namikaze Minato had exceptionally become Hokage, but the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen had not completely stepped down.

"By the way, how about I tomorrow…"

'Forget it, Kushina never goes out at night, so she definitely wouldn't come out.'

'And with his Uchiha identity, once in contact with a jinchūriki, he would be constantly monitored by the Anbu, too troublesome.'

'Besides, calling Kushina over, how can I have a world for two(Seggs) with Kage?'

"What about tomorrow?"

"No, nothing…"

Continuing to hold tightly to the man who gave her immense satisfaction and happiness, Uchiha Mikoto soon fell into a state where she couldn't speak.

'Who knows where he got so much energy.

'

'Really, good thing I healed my body with Mystical Palm Technique, otherwise today…

'

'And…'

Uchiha Mikoto, amidst a series of soft cries, watched her view change from the ceiling to the bedsheet.

'Who knows where he learned so many embarrassing positions.'

'Wait!'

'Didn't he say he doesn't have a girlfriend? How can he be so skilled?'

After entering a brief period of sage-like time, Uchiha Mikoto suddenly noticed a blind spot.

However, soon.

In the following time, she was completely unable to think about any issues.

Because, after that, there was never a moment of rest.

———

"Mikoto, why…"

The craftsman Uchiha Mikoto hired was quite reliable, soundproofing the room thoroughly in a day.

And Uchiha Fugaku, who could no longer enter the small courtyard, was also unable to hear the sounds with his ears.

Only after the hurried closing of the door could he conjure up fantasies in his mind of Mikoto being suppressed by the other…

'Wait, such fantasies seem to be even more effective.'

Although unable to hear the sounds, often the less one hears, the more room there is for imagination.

For a moment, Uchiha Fugaku noticed a change in the power of his Sharingan.

'It seems even more intense than yesterday.'

'Good, just like this…'

Uchiha Fugaku, while fantasizing about Uchiha Kage pressing down on his newlywed wife, morbidly felt the change in his Sharingan's power amidst a sense of inexplicable humiliation.

———

"What, a mission out of the village?"

"Of all times?"

Early the next morning, Uchiha Kage and others, along with Yuhi Kurenai, were called to the Hokage's office.

"Yes, this mission is very important, it must be executed immediately, and there can be no mistakes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen not only explained the arduous mission to the Hidden Mist Village but also promised everyone that they could be promoted to Chunin without taking the exam.

"I see, in that case, it won't delay these children…"

'But, is such an important mission to ally with the Hidden Mist Village really something we can accomplish?'

Yuhi Kurenai always felt that Sarutobi Hiruzen's arrangement was very hasty.

As if deliberately rushing them out of the village.

However, no matter what, not having to fight on the Chunin exam grounds, and the mission to the Hidden Mist Village being a legitimate alliance mission, these factors made it impossible for Yuhi Kurenai to refuse.

'And Kage…'

'It's also good to keep him away from the dangerous Uchiha Itachi.'

"But, Hokage-sama, is it really okay to entrust such an important mission to us?", Not only did Yuhi Kurenai feel something was off, but Uchiha Kage was also somewhat puzzled by the sudden out-of-village mission.

Although it was imaginable that Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted him and Yuhi Kurenai to temporarily leave the village because of Uchiha Itachi.

But the content of this mission was somewhat beyond the normal scope.

At least for them, such a mission shouldn't be undertaken by them.

'Representing Konoha to ally with the Hidden Mist… even if not using Konoha's advisors, it should be done by elite ninjas like Kakashi, right?'

'Who do they think we are?'

"Don't worry, I've already contacted the Hidden Mist in advance about the specifics."

Faced with Yuhi Kurenai and Uchiha Kage's doubts, Sarutobi Hiruzen had already prepared his speech.

"Moreover, Kurenai is one of the village's finest ninjas, and I believe in your strength. It's time for the younger generation of ninjas to take over from us old ones."

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen put it this way, Yuhi Kurenai could only accept the mission scroll.

———

"Sigh, this rebellious son…", Sarutobi Hiruzen thought his plan was well executed, but hit a snag with his own son.

Asuma adamantly refused to be Konoha's representative to the Hidden Mist.

He said he didn't want to be labeled as the Hokage's son, and his strength was not on par with Kakashi and Might Guy.

As Konoha's representative, he was simply not qualified.

But Sarutobi Hiruzen knew the root of all this came from last night…

"Just being provoked by a woman…"

Asuma learned about Uchiha Itachi's presence in the village from Yuhi Kurenai and had a big argument with his father.

This was also why Sarutobi Hiruzen was in such a hurry to "drive" Yuhi Kurenai and others out of the village.

He was afraid that at such a critical moment, the truth about the Uchiha massacre would be exposed in Konoha.

"Call Hiashi over."

With Kakashi currently the face of Konoha under the Hokage, the Chunin exams still needed him to hold up the scene.

Sarutobi Hiruzen could only choose to have the Hyuga family act as Konoha's representative.

'If only Konoha wasn't so short on people…', Thinking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen felt quite bitter.

The once thriving and talented Konoha was still vivid in his memory, how did it come to this state of discontinuity and lack of usable personnel?

———

"What are you thinking about?", After leaving the Hokage building, Yuhi Kurenai saw her student looking preoccupied.

Even when she tried to talk to him several times, he brushed her off or ignored her.

Reluctantly, she resorted to her head-patting technique again.

"Thinking… if teacher has offended the Hokage?"
