"The Cloud Messenger …"
Looking at Rin leaving the Hokage's office, Maples touched his chin, revealing a thoughtful look, if he remembered correctly, this group of people will cause some trouble.
After thinking about it carefully, the timing is right, in two days it should be Hinata's third birthday, but because of the Hyuga Clan's rules, when the direct descendants of the main family reach the age of three, the descendants of the branch family will all be marked with the Caged Bird curse, so no outsiders will be invited to participate.
After thinking about it, Maples shook his head with a smile.
This matter is actually very interesting.
Don't look at the normal plot, the Cloud will insist that if the Hyuga Clan doesn't give them an explanation, they will start another war, but in fact, they have been targeting the Hyuga Clan from beginning to end.
After the Third Shinobi World War, the Senju Clan declined, and the Hyuga Clan became one of the two top clans in Konoha, replacing the Senju Clan.
Sarutobi, the Hokage, has always been suppressing the major clans, he was forced to let the Hyuga Clan develop during the war, and after the war, he will inevitably suppress them. The Cloud obviously took advantage of such a loophole, it was tantamount to cooperating with Sarutobi to beat the Hyuga Clan.
They wanted to let the Hyuga Clan know that even if they rise in the war, they still have to be honest.
The messenger died in the hands of the Hyuga Clan, so they asked the Hyuga Clan to pay with their life, otherwise, they will start a war, this is obviously nonsense.
Not to mention Sarutobi, even Maples, who doesn't like to do these things, can see the purpose of the Cloud at a glance.
Just look at the final result.
Sarutobi forced Hizashi to die, but the Cloud still went back and started a war, the only impact of the whole incident was that the Hyuga Clan was beaten by Sarutobi.
"Do you want to say hello …"
"Forget it."
After thinking about it, Maples put it in the back of his head.
It doesn't matter.
Although the Kyuubi is lazy now, the Cloud's actions can't escape Kyuubi's Malice Perception. There's no need to remind the Cloud, lest they make some unnecessary movements.
If they dare to do something, then we will talk about it.
Thinking of this.
Maples left a Shadow Clone in the office, then walked out.
…
Uchiha Clan Residence.
In a side room.
Two women were sitting face to face, drinking tea while talking and laughing. One of them had blood-red hair. It was Uzumaki Kushina. Now she should be called Minafe Kushina.
Opposite Kushina were Uchiha Mikoto, Itachi, and Sasuke's mother.
"In the blink of an eye, Naruto has grown so big."
Uchiha Mikoto poured a cup of tea and talked about Naruto and Sasuke with a smile.
Kushina smiled and said, "Your Sasuke is the same. The last time I hugged him was during the one-month celebration. It looks like he'll be a handsome guy in the future."
"It's nothing …"
Uchiha Mikoto smiled, and then looked around and said, "Huh, where are the two of them? Where did they go?"
Kushina took a sip of the tea and said, "They went to the backyard. My Naruto is very lively, and I'm usually tired of taking care of him."
Uchiha Mikoto grinned and said, "Sasuke is fine, he has his brother Itachi to take care of him. Otherwise, I would be in the same situation as you … Why don't you find a tutor for Naruto?"
"It's not safe to let someone else teach him."
Kushina smiled and said, "Anyway, I have nothing to do."
Just as the two of them were chatting, a figure wearing wooden clogs passed by the corridor and headed towards the backyard.
When they saw the figure, Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto were startled, then they stood up together and saluted the figure.
"Hokage-sama."
"You talk, I just came to see Itachi's practice."
Maples glanced at Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto and smiled.
Uchiha Mikoto saluted again and thanked him, "Hokage-sama, thank you for taking care of Itachi's practice."
"I just happen to have nothing to do."
Maples smiled and turned to look at Kushina, "How's life recently? Minato asked me to take care of you and your son, but I haven't been there for two years."
Kushina smiled and nodded at Maples, "Thank you for taking care of me, I don't have any problems, everything will be solved soon … After all, things in the village are very busy, and Minato almost didn't have much time to come back to his home."
Because Kakashi often visited Kushina, Maples didn't visit her personally, but he still told him to give Kushina a certain amount of consolation money every month, and the Sixth Division will take care of her problems.
"Then I'm relieved, if you have any problems, you can ask Kakashi at any time."
Maples nodded slightly to Kushina, then continued to walk forward, disappearing at the end of the corridor and heading towards the backyard.
Both Kushina and Uchiha Mikoto bowed in the direction Maples left, and only when Maples disappeared did they stand up again.
Uchiha Mikoto looked at Kushina, noticed her eyes, and sighed, "Do you think of the Yondaime? If the Kyuubi incident hadn't happened … "
"No."
Kushina shook her head, showing a nostalgic smile and a somewhat complicated look, "If Minato was the Hokage, it would be difficult for him to be like the Yondaime, I don't have the ability to tame the Kyuubi."
She was grateful to Maples, because without Maples, Konoha wouldn't have been able to get rid of the war so quickly, and it would have been destroyed in that incident.
Minato's decision, in her opinion, was the right one, whether it was the development of Konoha, or the Kurama, who was now respected by many Konoha's ninjas, it was obvious. And Maples also saved her life, so she could take care of Naruto.
In fact, now that she was receiving consolation money every month and just staying at home, she felt a little embarrassed, but Naruto was only three years old, and he was still a little young.
She planned to wait until Naruto was five years old, and when he started going to school, she would go to Maples and ask to continue working as a ninja … Although Minato died for Konoha, and she deserved everything she had now, she still wanted to continue working for Konoha.
"The Yondaime was indeed a legendary Hokage."
Hearing Kushina's words, Uchiha Mikoto couldn't help but look in the direction Maples disappeared, after all, even the First Hokage couldn't tame the Kyuubi.
