The Red Moon of Konoha

Chapter 157 Let's work overtime together!

Ninja world is like a boiling pot.

Always noisy.

There are always big and small, far and near, good and bad stories happening in a certain corner of the world.

This time the protagonist is Takiyin Village.

As a closed and neutral policy, Longyin Village has always been an indispensable supporting role in the ninja world. The reason for saying this is entirely because of the face of Longyin Village who controls Nanao Jinchuriki. Otherwise, there would have been no People are paying attention to this village that has been down for a long time.

With such a supporting role, it's rare that there will be big news that will cause a sensation in the ninja world.

Although, the price is a bit high.

"Has Longyin Village been razed?"

"Nanao Jinchuriki's whereabouts are unknown?"

"Takiin Village has long been controlled by Konoha Rebellion [Scarlet Clothes] Uchiha Ryuki?"

This news is really not small.

Nanao Jinchuriki is involved, and Konoha's S-class rebellious ninja Uchiha Ryuki is involved, no matter which one is enough to make the five major ninja villages look at him... Therefore, this country has countless waterfalls of large and small Welcomed waves of ninjas from all over the world to investigate.

Some are ninjutsu and secret arts that have been accumulated and inherited for Takiyin Village.

Some are for Nanao Jinchuriki whose whereabouts are unknown.

Some are rebelling against Uchiha Nagari for Konoha.

Others are just trying to fish in troubled waters.

Some are more purely just for money.

What's more, they are willing to act as a shit-stirring stick, and don't want to see anyone benefit. Well, this shit-stirring stick is Mist Ninja, which is too far away from the country of Taki, and the Mist Ninja who is separated from the country of fire is the worst. It may have benefited from the event of the destruction of Takigakure Village.

The fourth generation of Mizukage simply cheerfully acted as a shit-stirring stick, and it was no good for him, so everyone should not even try to reap the benefits.

So that the country of Taki became a mess in a short period of time, the ninjas of Konoha, cloud ninja, sand ninja, rock ninja, mist ninja, grass ninja, rain ninja, warriors of the iron country, and the mysterious underground world The bounty hunter, the daring rebellion of the talented, the mercenary organization that wants money but not life, the noble young master who is stupid and rich...
----

Leaf Village.

Naruto Building.

"What the hell is this? The son of a famous lord, actually brought mercenaries to take risks in the country of Taki? Why don't you wipe your neck at home when you are tired of work, and you have to make trouble for us!"

The good-tempered Nara Shikajiu was stunned.

special.

The mess in the country of Taki has been annoying enough recently, but there are always guys who don't stop adding to his workload.

The youngest son of the Mingyueyuan family, one of the four masters in the country of fire, took a team of mercenaries to the land of Taki to find excitement, but now the contemporary master of the Mingyueyuan family has passed on to Konoha Sai A commission to protect his young son...

If it wasn't for the money, I really don't want to take on this task!

"Lu Jiu, if you are tired, go and rest for a while!"

Minato warmly comforted this capable assistant, but he couldn't make Lujiu exhausted. His Hokage seemed to have a lot of talents, and even Kakashi and other disciples also emerged one after another. A guy who prefers his fists to his brains.

There are very few administrative talents like Lu Jiu, and none of them can compare with Lu Jiu.

During this period of time, in order to deal with the mess in Longyin Village, Minato set up a desk for Shikajiu in this Hokage office.

"I'm fine, Hokage-sama."

Lu Jiu shook his head, and the veins on his forehead were throbbing, "It's just that there are too many people fishing in this pool of water in the Land of Taki, so now the water is muddy...very annoying!"

"..."

Minato smiled wryly for a moment.

The water in the country of Taki is really 'muddy' now. Konoha's ninjas have suffered losses in the country of Taki several times, and what they eat is ignorant and clueless. I haven't figured out what it is until now. Which force has tripped Konoha, the Jonin who was in charge of leading the team was deprived of his job because of his ineffectiveness, and the new leader, Hyuga Hinata, has already rushed to the country of Taki day and night.

In fact, Minato doesn't care about Nanao Jinchuriki or something, Konoha does not lack such a tailed beast, and it is the [Scarlet Clothes] that really affects the minds of Konoha ninjas.

"Shikahisa, you said... Uchiha Ryuki took control of Takigakure Village, how credible is this matter?"

Minato put down the pen and asked suddenly.

Lu Jiu was startled when he heard the words, and immediately put down the signature pen in his hand, carefully sorted out his wording, and said: "I have studied this matter for two days, based on the testimony of His Excellency Wei Yuan, combined with the past According to all aspects of information, Takigakure Village is controlled by Uchiha Ryuki... it is true."

At the end, Lu Jiu sighed again. "Honestly speaking, if I were Uchiha Ryuki, I would probably choose Takigakure Village as a hiding place. Neutral, closed, and weak... a place like this is perfect for hiding!"

"So Nanao should have fallen into the hands of Uchiha Nagaruki?" Minato asked.

"This...you can't say for sure."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"I've been wondering who is the person who destroyed Takigakure Village? Since Uchiha Ryuki has already controlled Takigakure Village, there is no need to destroy Takigakure Village... and according to the information from the front, I It is guessed that someone attacked Longyin Village, and the flattened Longyin Village should also be the work of the attacker, or it was caused by the battle between the attacker and Uchiha Ryuki."

"... these, I think Hokage-sama should have figured it out, right? But what worries you should be the identities of this or these attackers, right?"

Lu Jiu looked at Minato.

Minato nodded without denying it.

"I have also thought about these things. The destruction of Takihid Village may be inseparable from Uchiha Ryuki, but he may not be the main cause. Compared with Uchiha Ryuki... this or these who dared to attack Taki Hidden Village, even the guy who can fight Uchiha Ryuki and destroy Taki Hidden Village is more worthy of vigilance, the unknown enemy is the most fearful!" Minato sighed.

Immediately, he stared at Lu Jiu again and asked:
"Shikahisa, you said that Nanao may not be in the hands of Uchiha Ryuki...could it be in the hands of the attacker?"

"I guess maybe the people who attacked Longyin Village may be the same group as the guys who attacked the village last year." Lu Jiu rubbed his brows, and while talking, he organized his thoughts.

"The guys who attacked the village last year were obviously going towards Kushina-sama, and their target should be Kyuubi... To be honest, there are not many valuable things in Takiyin Village, except for Nanao That’s all worth noting! The attackers can’t attack Takiyin Village for no reason. In my opinion, the attackers should be targeting Nanao.”

"That's why you said that Nanao may not be in the hands of Uchiha Ryuki, or it may have been taken away by those attackers...isn't that right?" Minato took over Shikahisa's thoughts.

"This is my idea."

Lu Jiu's jaw.

Minato rubbed his brows, "The whereabouts of Nanao is not important, even if it is taken by some village, it will not change anything, what matters now is..."

The words stopped here.

Uchiha Shisui used the instant body technique to break in directly.

And brought amazing news.

"Master Hokage, Dragon... Uchiha Ryuki has returned to the village!"

"Clang!"

The table was knocked over.

Documents fell like snowflakes.

Lu Jiu jumped up, his eyes widened, and he stared straight at Uchiha Shisui who was kneeling on one knee in front of the large desk, and asked anxiously: "Shisui, you said Uchiha Nagarju is back?"

"Yes, Uchiha Nagaru has returned to the village."

Shisui looked at the unmoved Hokage-sama, and answered Lujiu's question.

"Going back to the village? Going back to the village at this time... What are you going to do?" Lu Jiu sat back on the chair, grabbed the short stubble on his chin, and frowned deeply Wen, lost in thought.

"Tuk-tuk!!"

Minato tapped on the table with her fingers, attracting Shisui's attention.

"Shisui, what's going on? Why didn't the enchantment class report, and the police force didn't hear anything... Where did you find Uchiha Ryuki?"

"I saw Uchiha Ruri in BBQ Q."

Zhishui said seriously.

He didn't know whether he was lucky or not. In short, when he passed the barbecue Q, he smelled the aroma of barbecue and glanced subconsciously, and finally saw Uchiha Ruri sitting at the window of the box on the second floor.

Even though I haven't seen it in almost two years.

But he still recognized Uchiha Ruri who was two years older with his excellent memory and excellent eyesight.

At that time, he was frightened into a white sweat.

He knew very well that Uchiha Ruri was taken away from the village by Uchiha Ryuki, and now that Uchiha Ruri has returned, doesn't that mean that Uchiha Ryuki has also returned.

"That means you didn't see Uchiha Nagaru with your own eyes?"

Minato looked at Shisui speechlessly, and Lujiu beside him also frowned.

"I was afraid of being discovered, so I didn't dare to look."

Zhishui said honestly.

"...Let's check it out first!"

Minato also found it tricky, he knocked on the table, and after a while he said: "Shimizu, take someone to check! Make sure Uchiha Ryuki is in the village... As for what to do? Wait until you find out! And... don't say anything about this beforehand, and keep the news under control."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Zhishui bid farewell and left.

When the door was closed, Lu Jiu picked up the table that was knocked over by himself, packed up the scattered documents, looked at the water gate, and asked softly:

"Master Hokage, don't you want to make some preparations?"

"·······················································································································​​ the scenery.

Uchiha Ryuki... It's really unpleasant!
They say they are enemies, but they have no hostility towards the village, and they say they are friends, but they are genuinely rebellious. This awkward relationship makes people uncertain what to do with Uchiha Nagari, and Uchiha Nayuki is not what he wants to do what can we do...
If Uchiha Ryuki had shown enough hostility towards the village, Minato might not have been so troubled.

It must be an enemy, just find a way to eradicate it, even if it will cost a lot.

However, after Uchiha Ryuki killed Danzo, he did not show any aggressiveness towards the village... This made Minato a little difficult. If Uchiha Ryuki really had no intention of being an enemy of the village, it turned out that because of them It would be absurd to act rashly and force him to confront the village.

"Master Naruto, please forgive me, Uchiha Ryuki is always an untimed bomb, maybe it will never explode, but it may detonate in the next second... Even if the bomb cannot be removed, at last At the very least, the scope of the explosion must be isolated from the village!"

Lu Jiu's suggestion made Minato Jiujiu silent.

Time bomb?
The description is very apt!
The reason why he is restless is not that he is worried that Uchiha Nagaruki will suddenly detonate at some point, after all, not everyone knows that Uchiha Nagaruki is not hostile to the village, especially those youngsters who are like newborn calves Girls, in their eyes, Uchiha Ryuki is just a damn rebellious ninja...
He was worried about such a conflict.

At that time, if someone sacrifices because of this, then...there will be no room for change. He can ignore the death of that old guy in Danzo, and even the death of 'root' A ninja can pretend not to see even if he is determined.

Because at that time he was just an ordinary Jonin.

And now, he is Hokage, and he has the responsibility to protect everyone in the village... Is this the so-called butt decides the head?
Minato quietly watched the setting sun that was about to set in the sky.

"Lu Jiu."

"I have written down what you said. I will seriously consider this matter. For the time being, let Shisui investigate the traces of Uchiha Ryuki! You must confirm that Uchiha Ryuki is indeed in the village . . . to say what to do."

Minato let out a long sigh.

"It's time to work overtime again!"

Looking at it like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home on time to see my wife and children today.

"You said so!"

Speaking of overtime work, Lu Jiu's face immediately pulled the donkey long.

Minato couldn't help being amused when he saw this, there is a tigress at home...it's really not easy!

To be honest, Jiu Xinnai's temper is not very good, but Jiu Xinnai has never lost his temper with him. In contrast, Lu Jiu, who often goes home for training, is really difficult!
"Ugh!!!"

Faced with Hokage-sama's gloating, Lu Jiu could only sigh.

"Uchiha Ryuki suddenly came back to the village at the very moment when Takigakure was destroyed. I was worried that he had other plans, but after thinking about it for a long time, I still didn't have any clue... Hokage-sama, what do you have? What do you think?" He changed the subject.

"do not know!"

Talking about serious matters, Minato returned to seriousness, "I haven't figured out what that guy is thinking. I think it's best to ask Fuyue here to ask this kind of question."

"Makes sense!"

Lu Jiu clapped his hands violently, "Uchiha Ryuki is also Uchiha, no matter what, this matter cannot be bypassed by the Fuyue patriarch."

then,

Uchiha Fugaku, scheduled to work overtime.

"······················································································· Minato, keenly aware of something wrong, as if he had been led?

"You think too much, it's too late for me to have a headache when such a big event happened... Alas!"

Lu Jiu looked bitter.

Minato was dubious, but he didn't continue to ask. Anyway, it's not bad for one more person to work overtime.
