I, who was determined to stay in Naruto, became the white moonlight

Takeuchi Mirei roughly told Haruko the rules and actions of the Anbu, and under the pretense of carrying out a mission, they entered the Hyuga clan's territory in the middle of the night.

The Hyuga clan's Byakugan can detect biological activity through the flow of chakra, and in order to avoid the patrols, Haruko weaves an illusion of genjutsu around the two of them.

Logically speaking, even the illusory chakra would be detected by the Byakugan, but her control over chakra was so precise that even if the Hyuga elders came, they might not be able to detect her presence.

Therefore, they successfully sneaked into the room of the Hyuga elder, who currently has the greatest say in the Hyuga clan.

Previously, he asked Orochimaru to research a way to break the caged bird, but the time was too short, so he only developed a secret technique to suppress the caged bird for an hour, but it was enough to threaten people.

Kakashi Hatake randomly grabbed a lucky branch on the road, and under Haruko's illusion, he followed their orders and launched an attack on the Hyuga elders.

After realizing that the caged bird couldn't control his brain nerves, the Hyuga elder panicked and asked them harshly if the Hokage was going to take action against the Hyūga.

"Why do you think the ANBU must be the Hokage's people?"

Haruko's words stunned the Hyuga elder. He opened and closed his mouth and pointed at them but couldn't utter a word.

Kakashi Hatake, who was standing nearby to show off his presence, almost looked at her, but then he suppressed his surprise when he remembered that there were other people around.

Is it possible to say something like this...

Politicians always think more deeply than the average person. Correspondingly, they are more likely to fall into language traps and become suspicious of everyone who comes into their mind.

After taking a deep breath, Elder Hyuga calmed down. He clearly already had someone he suspected in his mind and had automatically found excuses for their behavior, but he pretended not to believe it on his face.

Haruko didn't care whether he believed it or not, and used threats and inducements to cooperate with him and asked him to hand over the secret technique of the caged bird.

Otherwise, they can use the method of suppressing a bird in a cage to make a deal with the branch family. Although the main family is powerful, the number of people is far less than that of the branch family. If there is real internal unrest, no one can predict the outcome.

To outsiders, it was just the branch family that could not stand the oppression of the main family and started a rebellion. No matter which side won or lost, the third-party forces represented by Haruko and others would not be affected in any way.

Elder Hyuga knew their plan as soon as he thought about it, and his white eyes suddenly exuded a sharpness.

It was precisely because they seized the internal contradictions of the Hyuga that they had the opportunity. If they agreed to cooperate with them, the Hyuga would lose the secret techniques passed down from generation to generation and betray the Hokage; if they refused, the resentful branch family would definitely start a riot.

Why didn't he doubt Haruko's words? After all, the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze had just ascended to the throne, and there was no reason for Sarutobi Hiruzen to cause trouble for his disciple. Haruko and the others must be spies planted in the Anbu by others.

Although the reforms proposed by Minato Namikaze affected the interests of many people, Elder Hyuga agreed with this Hokage in his heart.

Besides, he just wanted the split family to be obedient, and he didn't really want to fight against the tribe members.

Elder Hyuga asked cautiously, "Who is behind you?"

Hatake Kakashi was also wondering who Haruko would use as a shield, but she said -

"The elders have already guessed it, so why bother asking more questions?"

His calm attitude made it seem as if nothing serious had happened.

Elder Hyuga: ...

How would I know which one of those old guys it is if you don't tell me? !

Elder Hyuga was choked so much that his breathing stopped for a moment, but he was too embarrassed to ask more questions. After all, the more he asked, the less confident he would appear. In the end, he just asked them in a low voice to give him some time to think.

Watching them leave unhindered as if they were strolling in their own backyard, the Hyuga elder cursed Danzo Shimura, the ambitious man who was beside the previous Hokage, in his heart.

After all, no matter how you think about it, he is the one who has the greatest opportunity and ambition to infiltrate the Anbu with his own power. It seems that he has not given up even after becoming a prisoner.

Danzo Shimura who was under surveillance from all sides in the prison:?

The next day, security was heightened in the Hyuga clan's territory, and news spread that the main family and the branch family were in peaceful negotiations.

When they learned of this deliberately released news, everyone felt strange because of Hinata's sudden change of attitude, but Haruko was not surprised at all.

The best way to resolve the conflict between the two parties is to create a common enemy for them.

According to Uchiha Fugaku, when they visited Hyuga again, Hyuga's attitude had softened a lot, and they even said that the reforms proposed by the Hokage were worth a try.

The Hyuga elder who had always held the right to speak in Hyuga, somehow completely handed over power to the clan leader Hyuga Hiashi, as if he was preparing for his own unexpected event in advance, but no matter how long he waited, he never got the assassination from Haruko and the others.

Elder Hyuga: ...?

After receiving the report from the Hyuga clan, Namikaze Minato had a solemn expression and sent people to secretly investigate the Anbu.

When they went to trick Hinata, Haruko and the others' appearances were adjusted, especially Hatake Kakashi, who was turned into an adult. No matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find that the monk Takeuchi Mirei, who was replaced, was the child Hatake Kakashi.

After that, Konoha returned to peace, Hatake Kakashi continued to stay in the Anbu, and Haruko changed back to her identity.

Jiraiya said that he was going to travel and train, and took the reluctant Uchiha Obito with him. He didn't know how long it would take for him to come back. Before leaving, Uchiha Obito kept telling Haruko to wait for him to come back and not to be deceived by other boys.

After sending Uchiha Obito away with a sad and funny look, Haruko began her life of training alone.

The place where she practiced was always unexpected, and most of the time Kakashi Hatake couldn't find her after completing his mission. Occasionally he would just hide in the dark and watch her quietly.

Haruko told him that the next plan would have to wait until the Hyuga negotiations were completed, so Hatake Kakashi missed the opportunity to know her real plan.

"team leader."

Hatake Kakashi saw Takeuchi Mirei pushing open the door and stood up to greet her.

Huanchen, who was wearing a mask, had an unclear expression. He replied coldly with "hmm" and walked in front of the team members.

"I have received a special mission and I have to leave temporarily. Please listen to the deputy captain's arrangements and wait for me to come back. That's all."

"Yes."

The rule of the Anbu is not to inquire or ask too many questions, and to obey all arrangements. Hatake Kakashi watched her stern back as she left, his eyelashes drooping.

For a moment he actually thought it was Haruko who was here.

Huanchen received a special mission to protect the delivery of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Kushina. As the most powerful female ninja in the Anbu, she was chosen to protect her.

During pregnancy, a female Jinchūriki's energy is used to nurture the fetus, which will cause the seal that restrains the tailed beast to weaken.

Therefore, the Konoha high-level officials attached great importance to Kushina's delivery and classified it as a confidential event. The Third Hokage proposed to arrange the delivery room outside the village, set up a strict barrier and deploy many Anbu masters directly under the jurisdiction of the Hokage.

The Third Hokage's wife, Sarutobi Biwako, served as the midwife and escorted Kushina out of the village with Huanchen following.
