Tsunade checked into Konoha Hospital three days early. However, she couldn't sit still and had an exceptionally good physique. She always considered herself a medical saint and had no fear of childbirth.
Uchiha Yoichi had no choice but to accompany this older expecting mother, using a clone to watch over Tsunade while his real body went to gather life energy for her.
Now, the range of Yomi Tsu ze Watari had expanded to five kilometers. Coupled with his perception ability, he could fully sense even the faintest life breath in the area.
Thus, when Uchiha Yoichi arrived at the seaside, he directly activated Susanoo to dive into the ocean, where there were many powerful life forms.
This was the Ninja World, where even a wild boar could grow to three or four meters tall. There were also tigers and giant bears exceeding ten meters in size. The sea creatures were bound to be even more formidable.
While Uchiha Yoichi was out, Mikota also began to take action.
She first discussed the matter with Minami and Yugito, but Minami, whose heart was set on Uchiha Yoichi, immediately said after hearing the story: "Mikota, you should tell Lord Yoichi about this, after all, it's a traitorous ninja."
"Mr. Yoichi knows about this, and Itachi doesn't want to tell Mr. Yoichi, sigh...."
Mikota sighed and said, "After all, that guy is Itachi's father. I really want him to vanish, but I'm also worried about Itachi's feelings; Minami, you understand me, don't you...?"
"I do understand, but you still have to say something to Lord Yoichi...."
Before Minami could finish her sentence, Mikota grabbed her hands, and then Mikota blinked her eyes at her, making Uzumaki Minami feel a bit uncomfortable and say: "Alright alright, I didn't say I wouldn't help you... but can just the two of us manage? It's been a long time since I've fought."
"Don't worry, Matatabi will lend me strength."
Yugito tightened her fists and spoke up. She was determined to stand up when the time came, to see what kind of power these people had and why they would dare try to abduct her!
"With me here, there's absolutely no problem. He said that if I were to exhibit my full strength, there would be few in the Ninja World who could be my match."
'He' huh...
Mikota and Minami exchanged glances. While they weren't particularly concerned about Yugito's strength, they were very interested in what she had just said.
This young girl spoke so intimately and gradually integrated into the family, and showed no intention of moving out. She even wore some makeup... when did this happen?
Mikota shook her head discreetly, as she also had Uchiha Trading Association matters to attend to, spending far less time at home than Uzumaki Minami, so she couldn't keep watch.
Uzumaki Minami also shook her head, indicating to Mikota to ignore it for now and wait for Lord Yoichi to return; still, she couldn't help puffing out her cheeks, as this little girl stole food under her nose, just like Mikota did in the past!
"Let me call Kushina. She has been training lately and has mastered Nine-tails Chakra Mode, with her around, it should be no problem."
Mikota thought of Kushina, who had been constantly training the last time she visited, declaring how much stronger she had become; as Lady Hokage, she naturally knew about the Nine-tails within Kushina.
With mastery over the Nine-tails power, coupled with Kushina's original abilities, she was definitely a powerful ally.
After making this decision, Mikota went out to look for Kushina, but halfway there, she made a detour to Konoha Hospital; she agreed with Minami that regardless of Mr. Yoichi's final decision, he should be informed.
However, at Konoha Hospital, Uchiha Mikota found Uchiha Yoichi's Wood Clone. After explaining the situation, the Wood Clone created another Shadow Clone, released it, and then said to Mikota: "The real body already knows, don't worry."
Only then did Mikota feel relieved and nodded before continuing on her way to Kushina's home.
"There's such a thing, why doesn't that b... Uchiha Yoichi take action?"
Kushina almost called him a jerk after hearing Mikota's story, but she managed to change her words just in time.
"Mr. Yoichi is aware, mainly because of Itachi. It's already quite commendable that this child stands on the side of justice. But if he were to witness Uchiha Fugaku's death...."
Upon hearing this, Kushina realized that it would indeed be cruel for a ten-year-old child. She then continued to ask: "What do you plan to do after capturing him?"
"Probably keep him permanently imprisoned. Itachi might have this plan, but I don't want Itachi to see that guy again. He's not worthy of being called Itachi's father, using his own son...."
Uchiha Mikota thought with hatred in her heart, wondering how she had never realized Uchiha Fugaku was such a person before.
"I understand. When will we take action?"
Kushina nodded, raising her sleeves as she spoke. Although she wanted to admonish Uchiha Yoichi fiercely, Mikota was her good friend and had helped her many times before. Now that her friend needed her, Kushina couldn't ignore it.
"Tomorrow afternoon, Itachi will bring Yugito to meet in a forest south of Ninja Paradise...."
After briefing the details, Mikota arranged to meet at Kushina's house the next day before leaving.
She wasn't someone who disregards priorities. Although she wanted to teach Uchiha Fugaku a lesson, she still informed Uchiha Yoichi, ensuring Uchiha Fugaku had no chance to escape.
————————————
The next afternoon.
As the appointed time was nearly at hand, Uchiha Fugaku felt a bit lost. However, thinking about Itachi's intelligence, he wasn't entirely worried.
