Naruto: Off the Rails from Tsunade’s Lap Pillow!

At the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Waves.

As soon as Natsume pushed the door open, his vital spots were targeted.

"…?"

He couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Ena Uzumaki was wearing a black-and-white maid outfit.

It was a sleeveless and off-the-shoulder design, mostly white, bound by black striped bands that accentuated her slender waist.

Below was a pleated skirt design that barely covered her hips and revealed her long, fair thighs.

Ena Uzumaki knelt on her knees, raised her head, and tried to look at him, mumbling incoherently, "Mas…Master."

Natsume was a bit confused.

Her behavior today didn't match her character.

Just then, Mikoto Uchiha, dressed in the same way, walked out.

Compared to Ena Uzumaki's boldness, she seemed extremely shy, with a blushing face.

The two knelt side by side. Although they had different looks, they were like twin sisters and looked quite harmonious.

"Tell me, who's the mastermind?"

Natsume crossed his arms, leaned against the wall, and looked down at the two of them.

The two glanced at each other. After some flustered movements, Mikoto Uchiha nervously swallowed and said uneasily, "It's me."

"I thought so."

Natsume wasn't surprised. He smiled and stroked Ena Uzumaki's head.

She was always very obedient. Without someone's instigation, she wouldn't do anything out of line.

Ena Uzumaki couldn't help but grit her teeth. She really wanted to apologize, but she was so busy with maid duties that she didn't have time.

"Master, please don't blame Ena," Mikoto Uchiha said in a humble tone. "It was all my idea. I want the Uchiha clan to return to Konoha earlier."

"I'm not blaming her."

Natsume shook his head and asked with a smile, "You want to see Sasuke earlier, right?"

"Hmm."

Mikoto Uchiha didn't dare to hide it and admitted.

"Actually, you don't have to be in such a hurry," Natsume said, looking at her with satisfaction. "I came back today to discuss this with you."

"Thank you, master!"

Mikoto Uchiha stepped forward and took over Ena Uzumaki's job.

"Master, let's sit and talk."

Ena Uzumaki wasn't annoyed. She stood up, hugged Natsume, and started massaging him.

"There has to be a reason for the return to Konoha," Natsume said, looking into Mikoto Uchiha's slightly pale eyes. "Going back directly will make people think that I'm the mysterious powerful person from back then. It's not appropriate."

"Then what should we do?"

Ena Uzumaki asked on behalf of Mikoto Uchiha.

"On Konoha's side, you're considered missing," Natsume said, looking thoughtful. "Well, we'll say that you managed to escape on the clan's extermination night, headed west, and settled in the Land of Water. You've been living incognito ever since. It was only after Kiri Village reopened and Konoha Village got a new Hokage that you tried to make contact."

Of course, to make it convincing, the details needed to be refined.

For example, there should be some traces left in the Land of Water for the Anbu to look into.

This wasn't a big problem.

Natsume was on familiar terms with Mei Terumī and could easily fabricate the traces.

"Are you relieved now?"

"Ugh..."

Mikoto Uchiha was so touched that she choked back her tears.

"It'll probably take a few days. Please be patient and wait a bit longer."

Natsume opened her mouth and bit the grape handed over by Ena Uzumaki.

Mikoto Uchiha coughed a few times, came to her senses, and said, "I'm okay with that."

"That's good."

Natsume stood up and said, "It's sweltering. Let's take a bath."

From morning until dusk.

The two maids had been working for too long. They hugged each other and fell asleep.

Natsume couldn't help but think that female friendships really form quickly.

In no time, they became good sisters.

As time passed.

One day before the alliance between Sunagakure Village and Konoha Village, the Anbu received an extremely confidential letter.

Although its source was unknown, considering the high - level secrecy measures, only the Konoha high - ups could know about it.

Soon, the letter was decrypted, and it turned out to be from Mikoto Uchiha, who had been missing for a long time.

Antelope, a member of the Anbu, immediately took the letter and knocked on the door of the Hokage's office.

"What a tortuous experience,"

Natsume said after reading the letter. "Go and inform the high - ups to come for a meeting."

He couldn't decide on the return of the Uchiha clan by himself. He had to let others know.

"Yes!"

Antelope vanished instantly.

In the afternoon.

In the meeting hall of the Hokage Building.

Different from the Jonin meeting, fewer people attended the Konoha high - ups meeting.

There were Hokage advisors, the Hokage's bodyguard team, the head of the Konoha Police Force, and the leaders of major ninja clans.

In total, there were no more than twenty people.

"I've gathered you all here because something unexpected has happened,"

Natsume sat at the head of the table and calmly began.

As he finished speaking, he clearly noticed Tadomichi Shimura's body tremble, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, he thought that the conspiracy between him and Danzo Shimura had been discovered by Konoha.

"Everyone, take a look,"

Natsume waved.

Kurenai Yuhi, standing behind him, immediately distributed Mikoto Uchiha's letter to everyone.

After a moment, there was a slight stir in the meeting hall.

After Itachi Uchiha's clan extermination, they had subconsciously removed the Uchiha clan from Konoha.

No one expected to hear news about the Uchiha clan again.

"Lord Hokage,"

Shikaku Nara stood up and analyzed, "The letter says that there are thirty - two ninja and three hundred ordinary members left in the Uchiha clan. This matches our investigation, but the authenticity is still debatable. What if it's a booby trap set by Kiri? It'll be a huge loss."

"Your point is well - taken,"

Natsume nodded and slowly said, "We should indeed conduct a thorough investigation. Leave it to the Anbu."

Everyone agreed.

The Anbu is supposed to handle such things. That's what professionalism is all about.

"Lord Hokage,"

Tadomichi Shimura said in a solemn voice, "Even if it's true, we shouldn't accept the Uchiha clan back into Konoha."

Although he looked like he was "thinking for Konoha," Natsume knew he was just being a nuisance.

"Why?"

Natsume looked at him and calmly asked.

As his gaze swept over, Tadomichi Shimura felt a shiver down his spine and thought, Where's all this pressure coming from? 

It actually made him think of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

What am I afraid of a kid for? It shouldn't be like this.

"All Uchiha clan members are crazy. If there was one Itachi Uchiha, there could be a second."

Tadomichi Shimura suppressed the panic in his heart and said, "If he turns his butcher's knife towards Konoha Village, it will undoubtedly be a huge danger."

"The Uchiha clan in its prime might have presented the situation you mentioned, but now, there are only a mere thirty-two ninjas."

Natsume asked disappointedly, "Is the clan leader of the Shimura clan really so afraid of them?"

"I'm not!"

Tadomichi Shimura quickly replied.

Only after he finished speaking did he realize he'd fallen into a trap.

What's going on?

He was completely thrown off.

"Alright then."

Natsume waved his hand and asked, "Does anyone else have any objections?"

"No."

The unanimous response from Hiashi Hyuga and the others made Tadomichi Shimura look like a clown.

His face turned pale then red. Finally, he made up his mind to cooperate with Danzo Shimura's actions.

Previously, he was actually a bit hesitant.

He even made a backup plan. At that time, he would betray those four ninjas and shift the blame onto Danzo Shimura, claiming that they were the spies he planted.

Now, he planned to increase his efforts and mobilize all the ninjas of the Shimura clan.

By then, they would surround Natsume and the others and wipe them out in one fell swoop.

It takes at least two days for a ninja to travel round-trip from the Land of Fire to the Land of Water. Considering that Mikoto and the others are traveling with their families, we should add one more day.

Natsume had already set off for Sunagakure Village.

So he left this matter to Tsunade to handle.

She and Mikoto Uchiha were like best friends.

Naturally, she was happy to have another chance to see her.

Of course, the happiest one was Sasuke Uchiha.

When he learned the news, he was training with Naruto Uzumaki.

After the battle with Zabuza Momochi last time, he discovered a weakness of the Sharingan.

That was that its field of vision could be blocked.

So he blindfolded himself and conducted auditory training.

More specifically, he asked Naruto Uzumaki to continuously attack him with ninja tools.

"Wow! Sasuke-kun, you're so awesome!"

Suddenly, the voice of Sakura Haruno appeared.

Sasuke Uchiha was slightly stunned.

A kunai barely missed him.

Frowning, he pulled off the towel and said, "You're too noisy!"

"Sorry."

Sakura Haruno said somewhat embarrassedly.

"The noisier it gets, the better the training effect."

Naruto Uzumaki punched Sasuke Uchiha on the shoulder and asked, "Sakura, do you need something from us?"

"Oh, right!"

Sakura Haruno quickly stepped forward and said, "Sasuke-kun, we've found them!"

"Found what?"

Sasuke Uchiha asked calmly.

"Your mom!"

Sakura Haruno said excitedly, "Not long after, the remaining members of the Uchiha clan, including your mom, will return to Konoha."

"What?!"

Sasuke Uchiha widened his eyes, grabbed her shoulders, and asked, "Is what you're saying true?"

Sakura Haruno was slightly stunned, and then she was overjoyed.

"Oh my god! Sasuke-kun touched me!"

"It's true."

Sakura Haruno quickly replied, "The village has already posted a notice."

Without saying a word, Sasuke Uchiha took a few bounds and dashed towards the street.

"How nice," Naruto Uzumaki said with a smile on his face. "From now on, Sasuke won't be alone anymore."

"He was never alone," Sakura Haruno murmured. "He has us."

"You're right," Naruto Uzumaki nodded and said. "Let's follow him."

[Because of your actions, the destinies of Mikoto Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha have changed. You have gained a total of 130 destiny value[b]destiny value[/b].]

Natsume, who was on the way, couldn't help narrowing his eyes.

True to form, Sasuke Uchiha.

He really contributes a lot of destiny value[b]destiny value[/b].

The two of them together contribute over a hundred destiny value[b]destiny value[/b].

"Lord Hokage," Kurenai Yuhi stepped forward a few steps and walked side by side with him. "It's getting late. Should we stop?"

Natsume didn't use the Flying Thunder God Technique[b]Flying Thunder God Technique[/b].

The main reason was to deceive the ninjas of the Shimura clan.

Not many people knew that he possessed the Flying Thunder God Technique[b]Flying Thunder God Technique[/b].

Only Tsunade, Shizune, Kurenai Yuhi and a few others were aware of it.

If the Shimura clan found out, they might not dare to act.

Then it wouldn't be fun at all.

"Yeah. Let's rest for a night. We should be able to reach the destination tomorrow morning."

Natsume nodded.

Kurenai Yuhi immediately passed on the order.

As the Hokage, Natsume naturally had a tent to himself.

He left a Kage Clone[b]Kage Clone[/b] behind and went to have some fun with Mikoto Uchiha and Ena Uzumaki.

Ever since the one - versus - two fight, he had fallen in love with this kind of unequal battle.

Three thousand words.
