Naruto: The Fifth Hokage Is Naruto's Uncle

Chapter 26: Chapter 026: The Hyuga Affair (1)



Today's Konoha village seemed very lively.

The streets and alleys were crowded with people.

Even the elderly, who rarely go out on weekdays, came to the streets with the support of their children and grandchildren.

The whole village was filled with cheerful air.

It was because today was the day when Kumogakure and Konoha would sign a peace agreement.

In order to celebrate this grand moment and celebrate the end of the war, Hiruzen, spent huge sums of money to hold a celebratory ceremony. Even the top of the Hokage Building had been carefully prepared.

Bright red ribbons were wrapped from both sides to the middle symbolizing the alliance of two villages.

The eyes of the villagers watching the excitement below were filled with joy and hope for the future peace.

Hiruzen, wearing a brand new Hokage cloak and Hokage hat, stood on the top of the Hokage Building and accepted the cheers of the villagers.

'This kind of grand scene, when was the last time...'

'Yes, it was still when Minato succeeded as the Fourth Hokage.'

'Now, it is my turn.'

"Pfft! Hahahaha!"

Mirai, who was watching from below, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

This display of disrespect immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding villagers.

Several looks mixed with anger were immediately cast towards him, but when they saw the other party's appearance, they turned around again.

What a joke!

He is the biological brother of the Fourth Hokage.

If they offend such a person any more…

'The end will be very miserable!'

"Uncle, why are you laughing?"

Naruto, who was being carried by Mirai in his arms and was also looking at the spectacle in the Hokage Building, tilted his head in confusion.

He didn't understand why his uncle was laughing?

This was obviously a normal spectacle, right?

"Naruto, don't you think it's funny?"

Mirai smiled and pinched his cheek.

"The messenger from the other village has not arrived yet. Our Hokage, like a fool, is standing on the building and waiting."

After hearing what his uncle said, Naruto looked at the Hokage Building again. The meaning of Hiruzen accepting the cheers of the villagers changed in his mind.

Standing alone on the roof of the building, looking here and waving.

At first glance, he doesn't look very smart.

"Pfft!"

Naruto also laughed.

"Looking at it this way, Grandpa Hokage is really funny."

The surrounding villagers wanted to find a crack in the ground and burrow down.

Is this something they could listen to?

The man on top of the building was the Third Hokage of Konoha.

In the entire Konoha, perhaps these two were the only ones who could say such disrespectful words in public.

There was obvious hint of contempt in Mirai's laughter.

The envoys from Kumogakure have not yet arrived. Hiruzen's respectful, no, his outright flattering behavior was undoubtedly a sign of lowering his status.

This was a very serious mistake in the diplomacy between the two villages.

In his younger days, he would never make such a mistake.

'Time is indeed the most ruthless executioner.'

On the top of the Hokage Building.

"What's going on? The envoy from Kumogakure is about to arrive. Why haven't Hiashi and the elders of the Hyuga clan come yet?"

Hiruzen, in his Hokage attire, frowned and asked his subordinates.

This was a momentous time for the diplomacy between the two villages.

Once the peace agreement was signed, it would not only pull Konoha out of the quagmire of war, but also using this event, he could reverse his recent negative reputation in the village.

On such an important day, Hiashi and the Hyuga clan didn't come to witness the event?

"What the hell is he doing?"

"H-Hiashi-sama's eldest daughter Hyuga Hinata's birthday is today. In order to organize her birthday party, Hiashi-sama couldn't come today..."

The subordinate gave a hesitant report.

"It's because of such a reason..."

Hiruzen frowned for a moment.

With this move, Hiashi could be insinuating that he didn't take him seriously.

Is Hinata's birthday party more important than the village signing a peace agreement?

"Let's leave it at that."

The Kumogakure envoy was about to arrive, and there was no energy for him to waste on such things now.

'Let's put Hyuga's matter aside for now.'

A few minutes later, the much-anticipated Kumogakure envoy finally arrived.

The leader of the cloud ninjas, had a white bandage wrapped around his head, a forehead protector engraved with the Kumogakure logo which was worn diagonally to cover his right eye, and a black beard grew on his chin.

"Hokage-sama, we are very sorry for being late."

"Although you were a few minutes late, you brought peace!"

Hiruzen smiled and stepped forward, holding the hand of leader of Kumogakure envoy.

Night.

The excitement of the day eventually faded away.

"Move slowly, don't get discovered."

Near the Hyuga clan land, several ninjas covered in black cloth were carefully evacuating.

The person at the head was the Kumogakure leader who signed the peace agreement during the day.

At this moment, under his armpit, he was holding the knocked out Hinata.

'Hahaha… Those idiots really thought we were here to sign a peace agreement, but they never expected that all this was Raikage-sama's plan. As long as we take this girl back, we can crack the secret of the Byakugan Kekkei Genkai.'

There was uncontrollable excitement in the leader's eyes.

The mission went surprisingly smoothly.

The Hyuga clan was holding a birthday party today, and their defense was much lax than usual. Some clan members were even so drunk that they had fallen asleep.

Under such conditions, they successfully sneaked into the Hyuga tribe and knocked Hinata unconscious, who had come out to relieve herself.

While they haven't been discovered yet, they were going to take this girl back.

Raikage would reward them heavily.

Several people followed the planned route and jumped from the roofs of the buildings like ghosts.

At the same time.

"So thirsty!"

Naruto, who felt thirsty, climbed out of bed in a daze, looking for some water to drink.

After a few sip, his eyes trembled slightly when he looked out the window, and he froze in place as if he had seen a ghost.

*Click*

The drinking glass fell from his hand and broke.

'What did I just see?'

A group of ninjas with their faces covered were jumping on the opposite roof. One of them had a girl under his arm.

'There are bad people!'

"Uncle!"

Naruto subconsciously wanted to run to Mirai's room.

Suddenly, a big hand reached out from the darkness and rubbed his hair.

"Don't worry, uncle noticed it a long time ago."

Mirai walked out of the darkness with a smile.

He noticed strange signatures had broken into his [Bio-Magnetic Field Perception].

Most of them seemed to be the Kumogakure envoys who signed the peace agreement during the day.

'Things are getting interesting.'

"Uncle, let's save that girl quickly!"

Naruto pulled on his arm anxiously.

Although he didn't know who they were, they must be bad people.

If that girl was taken away, she would end badly.

"Now that my nephew has spoken..."

Mirai's eyes narrowed with a smile.

These people have special status. If they are killed, Hiruzen would definitely make a scene.

But so what?

As long as his nephew was happy, so what if he killed them?
