The younger brother of the head of the Hozuki clan had gone missing.
Although no one felt bad about this scoundrel's disappearance, he was still the head's younger brother and the younger son of the Second Mizukage. Despite his worthlessness, they had to search for him.
The prime suspect now was Seisuke, the Konoha ninja hiding in Kirigakure.
Now some people suspected that Konoha was eyeing Kirigakure's Bloodline Limits.
This was absolutely intolerable. Every Bloodline Limit ninja was the village's top - secret asset, and they couldn't be stolen by Konoha.
Unable to tolerate this, the Third Mizukage directly went to the battlefield and fought Orochimaru. Without revealing his illness, he, together with Yagura Karatachi, forced Orochimaru back. He also sent a message to the Third Hokage, demanding an explanation. Otherwise, he, the Third Mizukage, would go to Konoha to "chat and have tea" with the Third Hokage.
Hiruzen Sarutobi probably guessed that it was his disciple who had done this, but how could he admit it?
He claimed that Kirigakure was making unfounded accusations, and there was a growing tendency towards a fight. However, aside from the initial battle with Orochimaru, no further fighting had broken out. But the atmosphere was getting tenser and tenser, and a tough battle seemed inevitable sooner or later.
Seisuke was also informed by Orochimaru to lie low as he might be of great use.
Suddenly, Seisuke changed from a front - line fighter to an underground operative. Now his task was to gather intelligence.
Intelligence was often easy to gather in places with a lot of people.
He transformed into a different appearance and sat in an izakaya. Listening to some Kirigakure ninjas drinking and chatting, they often let out some useful information in their drunken state.
This time, Seisuke transformed into a fifteen - or sixteen - year - old teenager, with his hands in his sleeves, strolling down the street.
Coming towards him were Aoba and Mei Terumī with an unfriendly expression.
Oh no, why do I keep running into them everywhere?
They're like ghosts that won't leave me alone!!!
He still maintained a nonchalant attitude and walked past the two.
"Stop!"
It was not Aoba with the Byakugan who called out to him, but Mei Terumī instead.
Seisuke pretended not to hear and kept walking. Mei Terumī called out again, "Seisuke Asakawa!"
Seisuke gritted his teeth and continued walking.
Mei Terumī suddenly said, "Aoba! Catch him!"
How did this woman recognize me?!!!
Realizing he couldn't hide anymore, he started running at full speed.
"Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Instantly, a large group of Seisukes burst out onto the street.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
A water dragon rushed up and shattered a group of shadow clones.
"Aoba, hurry and chase!"
Mei Terumī chased after him, creating water clones. Aoba didn't hesitate either and also created a group of water clones to pursue Seisuke and his shadow clones.
The commotion on the street couldn't be hidden. More and more Kirigakure ninjas joined the hunt for Seisuke, but he had already run away.
He came to the side of a large mansion, gasping for breath. "Oh no, how did this woman find me? Could there really be some kind of karmic connection between us? I need to find a place to rest. I'll have to ask her later."
Thinking this, he quietly climbed over the wall and entered.
"These people are really rich. There's actually a small lake in the courtyard."
Looking at the lake in the courtyard, Seisuke took a deep breath. He really couldn't understand the lives of the wealthy, but he could only envy.
There was a small building by the lake. After checking that there was no one around, he quickly slipped in.
The furniture in the room was neatly arranged, and a faint fragrance filled the air. Judging by the teddy bear pillow on the bed, it should be a girl's room.
"I'm sorry, but I'll rest here for the night."
He opened the closet, got in, and piled up the quilts inside to block out sound and avoid being discovered.
"Really, how on earth did Mei Terumī find me?"
He couldn't figure out how Mei Terumī had suddenly discovered him. He shouldn't have revealed himself, but she had found him anyway. What was going on? Where had he shown a burst seam?
Thinking like this, he lay in the quilts and fell asleep in the closet.
He slept soundly, but fortunately, he was a light sleeper now. Otherwise, he would have started snoring.
"I'm hungry. I need to find a place to get something to eat. I wonder if this family has a kitchen."
He moved the quilts aside and opened the closet.
In the room, a beautiful girl was taking off her ninja stockings.
"..." Seisuke
"..." Mei Terumī
The two stared at each other.
"Great!"
Seisuke rushed over and covered Mei Terumī's mouth to prevent her from screaming.
Mei Terumī bit his hand.
"Ouch!"
Is this girl a dog?
It hurt so much that blood seeped out from the wound.
"Are you a dog?!" Unable to help it, Seisuke pushed Mei Terumī to the ground. Mei Terumī naturally wouldn't let him succeed, and the two started a close - quarters fight, each trying to subdue the other.
Unfortunately for Mei Terumī, Seisuke was more skilled. In the end, he managed to subdue her by having a snake crawl out of his clothes.
Gasping for breath, Seisuke tidied his clothes, while Mei Terumī's eyes were red, with a mist in her beautiful eyes, and an apple stuffed in her mouth.
If someone saw this scene, they would surely misunderstand it as something else.
"Miss, I heard a commotion. What's wrong?"
The voice of a maid came from outside the door.
Seisuke immediately imitated Mei Terumī's voice and said, "It's nothing. Aoba learned some aerobics in the hospital earlier, so I was trying it out. Did I disturb you? Oh, you're here at the right time. Bring me some late - night snacks."
The maid outside the door said in confusion, "But Miss, you just had dinner, didn't you?"
Seisuke's face froze. He coughed and said, "Well, forget it then. You can go and rest."
"Yes, Miss. Please take a good rest."
The maid left.
Seisuke sighed, picked up the fruit on the bedside, and started eating. Looking at Mei Terumī, who was on the verge of crying, Seisuke said with a headache, "I'm really sorry. I really didn't know this was your house. By the way, your family is really rich. There's a lake in the courtyard?!"
He couldn't imagine the happiness of the wealthy.
Facing this insincere apology, Mei Terumī's tears rolled down from her eyes.
Seeing this, Seisuke panicked. He fumbled around, took out a tissue, and wiped her tears. "Don't cry, please. It's so terrible,girls cry and cant's be comforted ."
Hearing him say this, Mei Terumī cried even louder.
"Woohoo!"
Seisuke's scalp tingled. Fortunately, the maid had gone to rest. Otherwise, who knew what they would think was happening here.
He said, "Don't cry, please. First of all, I'm not a pervert, and I don't have any thoughts about your body."
Looking at Mei Terumī, he added, "At least not right now."
"Stop crying, please. I said it was an accident. I just randomly chose this house. Can you stop crying?"
