Naruto: Start with three magatama and cultivate Kushina

Home.

At this moment, three full days have passed since Liuyun's death.

During this period, Liuyun's body showed no signs of waking up, and as time went on, some obvious corpse spots began to appear on his body.

That is to say, he was very powerful when he was alive, and the chakra and physical energy contained in his body did not dissipate in a short period of time. This also led to the series of evolutions of his corpse after death being much slower than that of ordinary people.

Three days after an ordinary person's death, the body would probably start to bloat, stink and rot if it had not been properly frozen. But at this time, Liuyun had only developed corpse spots.

Asuka would wipe his body several times every day, and then kneel quietly beside him, waiting anxiously for him to wake up.

But as time passed, the little ray of hope in her heart gradually dimmed.

Looking at the increasingly obvious corpse spots on her son's body, Asuka's eyes gradually became empty, her heart seemed to become numb, and her energy was rapidly draining away at an alarming speed.

Inside the Hokage Building.

"Report, news has come from the border that the Hidden Cloud Village is gathering ninja troops and is about to attack our border garrisons!"

A Konoha ninja was reporting information from the border to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Damn it, what do those damn Cloud Ninjas want to do? Do they really want to start a war?" The two Hokage advisors were shocked and angry when they heard the news.

"Huruzen, has the envoy sent to the Hidden Cloud Village sent back any news today?" Mito Kado En asked hurriedly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head upon hearing this and expressed his own opinion: "The person is most likely detained..."

After learning that the Cloud Ninja Corps was wiped out in the Fire Country, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately sent an envoy to the Hidden Cloud Village.

The messenger brought the Hokage's handwritten letter and met with the Third Raikage and explained the matter. The messenger said that the death of the Cloud Ninja Delegation had nothing to do with Konoha Village.

Unfortunately, the furious Third Raikage did not accept such an explanation at all. After scanning the letter, he tore it into pieces in front of the messenger.

The envoy sent by Sarutobi Hiruzen has only had time to send back one piece of news, that is, the Cloud Ninja has obtained important information that the destruction of the delegation is related to Konoha.

The messenger did not explain what the information was specifically... Because after the information was passed on, Konoha completely lost contact with him. The Hidden Cloud Village had obviously controlled him, and it was possible that he had even been killed...

"Those damned warmongering lunatics seemed to be convinced that we were the ones who killed all the envoys?"

"Does the Third Raikage have no brains and can't think? Even though Ryuun is dead and we have already made sacrifices, is there any need to kill the Kumo Ninja Corps?"

Koharu Utatane's face turned pale and she cursed loudly, but then she looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen and asked him what to do next.

"What else can we do? For now, we can only deploy troops to the border to prevent a sudden attack from the Hidden Cloud Village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke with a gloomy expression, and then directly gave the order to mobilize troops.

The destruction of the Cloud Village envoy was most likely related to the Iwagakure Village. This was the opinion of the Konoha high-level officials. After the other party killed someone, it was too easy for them to produce some so-called evidence.

This is also the reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that there was a high probability of war after learning that the Cloud Ninja Envoy died in the territory of the Fire Country.

The place and time of the death of the Hidden Cloud delegation were too coincidental. The Third Raikage's furious tearing up of the letter and imprisoning the envoys were all within Sarutobi Hiruzen's expectations.

So when he learned that the Hidden Cloud Village began to mobilize troops, he did not show any anger. Instead, he felt more helpless and regretful.

He regretted making such a great sacrifice, but in the end he might still have to face war...

If he had known that things would turn out like this, he should not have sacrificed Liuyun. At least people's hearts would still be there!

"Report, Lady Mito has injured the ANBU ninja at the doorstep and ordered you to go see her immediately!"

A Konoha Anbu ninja arrived instantly and reported the news to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"what!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression suddenly changed, and he began to panic.

It seemed that the matter could no longer be concealed, and he didn't know how to get through Uzumaki Mito. It was possible that his tenure as the Third Hokage might be coming to an end.

"What needs to be faced must be faced. Mito-sama will understand us. After all, no one in Konoha wants to see a hero die..."

Utane Koharu lowered her head and spoke.

"Hiruzen, I'll go with you..."

Mito Kado En stood up and planned to accompany Sarutobi Hiruzen to face Uzumaki Mito.

"No need... Xiaochun is right. We have to face what we have to face. Avoiding it will not solve the problem..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen rejected Mito Kado En's kindness and then went directly to the Senju clan's territory.

When he rushed to the Senju clan's manor, he instantly found that all the Anbu ninjas who stayed nearby were knocked to the ground. They all had more or less injuries. Sarutobi Hiruzen also soon saw the skinny old man who was holding Kushina's hand and glaring at him.

"Mito-sama..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen walked up to Uzumaki Mito with his head lowered. At this moment, he was like a child who had done something wrong.

"Tell me why you want to block the manor, restrict our personal freedom, and block the news from us!"

"What are you hiding from us? Did something happen to Liuyun?"

Uzumaki Mito glared at him and questioned him repeatedly.

"Yes, Liuyun...is dead!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen directly told the bad news. After saying this, he ignored his identity as Hokage and knelt in front of Uzumaki Mito with a plop.

“Dead…dead???”

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's words, Kushina's pupils suddenly shrank into needles, and her brain seemed to have lost the ability to think.

Uzumaki Mito also became dazed, but soon she shouted angrily:

"Speak! Speak clearly! If you dare to hide anything from me again, I will kill you immediately!"

This was the first time that Uzumaki Mito had murderous intentions towards someone from Konoha, and this person was the Hokage of Konoha!

After hearing Uzumaki Mito's question, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately explained the whole story in detail.

"Liu Yun saved me, and I killed those Cloud Ninjas. It was me who killed Liu Yun... It was me... It was me who killed him..."

Kushina cried and blamed herself, and then, unable to bear the mental blow, her eyes turned black and she fainted.

"Ah... incompetent waste!"

After listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen's quick account of the whole story, Uzumaki Mito could no longer contain his anger and kicked Sarutobi Hiruzen hard while he was kneeling on the ground.

The kick contained terrifying force, instantly causing the most powerful man in the Hidden Leaf Village to spit blood. He was also sent flying dozens of meters away, smashing a wall of the Senju clan's territory!
