"Honestly..."

Glancing at the convoy in front of him who was checking the quantity of various supplies, Terumi Mei looked back at Kaguya Rei's brand-new jounin uniform, and said with some resentment:

"I'm really not used to seeing you in a Jonin uniform."

"Is there anything you're not used to?" Kaguya Rei rolled her eyes, not understanding the reason why Terumi Mei said this, "Have I not always been a genius since I was a child? A genius is better than my peers.

Isn’t it strange that everyone became a jounin earlier?”

"Probably the problem is that I never thought that the opportunity for you to be promoted to Jonin and become famous in the ninja world would be a fight with Konoha's Namikaze Minato."

Terumi Mei sighed, with a hint of reluctance in her voice but she had to admit that she couldn't catch up with him:

"That was a monster that single-handedly defeated the entire Iwagakure. If I were to face him, I would probably lose my mind for a moment and be killed by him without realizing it."

"Indeed, as long as you do this for a while, you will die and die."

Kaguya Rei casually made a gesture on Terumi Mei's slender jade neck, shook her head and sighed:

"Compared to your ability to cause mass destruction, your protective ability is not much different from that of ordinary ninjas who have no blood inheritance limit."

"I'm really sorry that I can't resist beating like you," Terumi Mei said angrily and slapped Kaguya Rei's hand away, "But even if there is a chance to exchange blood inheritance limits with you, I don't think there is any possibility that I would want to

Need to be replaced."

"You don't think it looks good if you turn yourself into a bloody mess before starting a fight?"

"No, I just don't think I have the courage to wear no clothes while fighting."

Kaguya glanced at Terumi Mei's well-developed figure, expressed deep regret, oh no, nodded in agreement, and then coughed slightly before the atmosphere became strange and changed the topic:

"Speaking of which, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen are indeed the most elite ninja group under the Sandaime. It has only been a short time since we officially declared war with Konoha, but they have already pushed the front into the Land of Fire and stabilized it..."

"Otherwise, how could I be qualified to be a member of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen?" Terumi Meilike every ninja born in Kirigakure showed enough respect and admiration for the name of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, "They are

There was a legendary ninja who conquered a small country overnight with the power of seven people..."

"But the next battle won't be so easy."

Kaguya sighed and said quietly:

"Konoha's counterattack has almost officially begun, but I don't know who the commander sent to the front line this time will be... Orochimaru among the three ninjas? Or Jiraiya? Or maybe his injury is almost healed.

Namikaze Minato?"

"Ah, if that's the case, before you came back from Uzumaki Country, the Third Master got the news from the spies lurking in Konoha."

Terumi Mei, who has been staying in Kirigakure's main village during this period, took advantage of his advantage as an ANBU and told Kaguya Rei a name that surprised him:

"It seems to be called Uzumaki Kushina, right? Although the spy is not sure of the specific identity of the other party, he is definitely an experienced female elite jounin who has performed well in the previous wars with Kumogakure and Iwagakure.

…”

"Wait a minute, is this the information the spy sent back?" Kaguya Rei's eyes couldn't help but twitch, "Her name is Uzumaki Kushina. Didn't the spy think of something when he wrote down this name?"

"What, what are you thinking of?" Terumi Mei was very confused about Kaguya Rei's sudden dissatisfaction, "The spy's information said that she seemed to be the fiancée of Namikaze Minato, and she was kidnapped by Kumogakure when she was young.

However, there is a high probability that he is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan who was adopted by the Country of Fire... This information should be sufficient, right?"

"call……"

Kaguya Rei exhaled a long breath, feeling a considerable degree of despair for the intelligence system of this world.

"Then let me ask... Could it be that Kirigakure's intelligence system doesn't even know the name of Konoha's first Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki?"

Faced with Kaguya Rei's speech that could be seen as provocative, Terumi Mei first took a deep breath and told herself not to argue too much with Kaguya Rei, who often talked out of her mind, and then replied with a bit of resentment.

:

"How could you not know? The name of the first Hokage Senju Hashirama's wife, the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki Uzumaki Mito, just by saying it, can make people who lived through that era feel its weight."

Kaguya Rei had no expression on her face, and even looked at Terumi Mei with a little pity, who still didn't realize anything was wrong, and continued to ask questions.

"Then let me ask you, has Uzumaki Mito passed away?"

"Probably passed away before the start of the Third Ninja War... Huh?"

At this time, even Terumi Mei, who had been almost assimilated into a kind of person by Kirigakure's intelligence system, began to realize that there was something wrong here.

Uzumaki Mito passed away before the start of the Third Ninja War, so how will Konoha deal with the nine tails that have lost the control of the Jinchūriki? That is the most powerful existence among the nine tailed beasts, if they just leave it alone

If so, Kyuubi will definitely take revenge on Konoha who imprisoned it for so long...

But Kirigakure's spies lurking in Konoha never sent back any information about the Kyuubi's rebellion.

This shows that Kyuubi is still under the control of Konoha...

Then there is only one answer left——

Konoha has obtained a new Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki. Although his/her power has not been used in any foreign war, the existence of such a Jinchuuriki is inevitable and necessary!

"Uzumaki Kushina...is the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki?"

Terumi Mei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and asked with a slightly trembling voice to Kaguya Rei, who had a normal expression.

"It's not bad, at least I'm not stupid enough to need me to tell you my answer directly..." Kaguya Rei pressed her eyebrows with a headache, and said speechlessly:

"Your performance really made me quite disappointed with the village's intelligence system, Terumi Mei. For such an obvious problem, from the spies who collected intelligence, to the ANBU intelligence analysis team, to the Sandaime, there was no one

People can see..."

"I, I will report this information to the Third Generation now!"

Terumi Mei's pretty face turned red, and she subconsciously wanted to turn around and run towards Mizukage's office building. Kaguya sighed, stepped forward and took Terumi Mei's little hand, and pulled her back forcefully, looking at her

Looking deeply into her eyes, she asked quietly:

"What can I do if I tell the Sandaime? Apart from the Sandaime himself, are there any ninjas in the village who can compete with the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki? If not, if you report this information, in addition to shaking the morale of the army, there will be

What’s the point? Can we let the Sandaime go out in person and join us to fight against the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki?”

"Moreover, how do you plan to explain the source of this information? Say that I analyzed it from the ANBU information you relayed? Doesn't that mean I slapped the Sandaime and everyone in the intelligence analysis class in the face for not seeing this?

A slap in the face? I don’t want to offend the most important intelligence department among my colleagues before I even set foot on the battlefield.”

"Then, what should I do?"

Terumi Mei was also a little at a loss. She looked at Kirigakure's colleagues who were standing next to the convoy and excitedly enjoying the war without knowing anything. Then she looked at Kaguya Rei who still maintained a look of disdain, worried.

He murmured to himself:

"That's the Jinchuuriki of the Nine-Tails... Even if we are fighting against the wild Nine-Tails, we need at least seven Ninja Swordsmen gathered together and all the ninjas on the entire front to have a slight chance of winning.

And a Jinchuriki who can control the power of the Nine-Tails with his own wisdom will only be more terrifying and countless times more powerful than the wild Nine-Tails..."

"Just leave it to me. As long as she appears on the battlefield, I will control her actions."

Kaguya smiled, stretched out her hand to hold Terumi Mei's hand, and said in a deep voice while transferring her body temperature and strength in this way.

"but……"

"Don't worry, I have my own sense of discretion... and don't worry too much about that Uzumaki Kushina using the power of the Nine-Tails unscrupulously. If my guess is correct, she should have some control over using the power of the Nine-Tails.

It’s not a small concern.”

"Why?" Terumi Mei took a deep breath and looked at Rei Kaguya, who looked confident, with a pleading look.

"Our spies have been lurking in Konoha for so long and have never heard anything about the second Jinchuriki besides Uzumaki Mito. That means that Uzumaki Kushina is the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

Hidden as a secret by Konoha's top brass."

Kaguya Rei calmly analyzed:

"Why hide it? One purpose is to deceive other countries' intelligence agencies and leave an unknown trump card. The other purpose is probably to prevent her living environment from becoming too bad."

"You should also know the attitude of ordinary ninjas towards the Jinchuuriki with the tailed beast sealed in their body... Terumi Mei... People who have not been ostracized and discriminated against by others as monsters for too long will not take the initiative unless they have to.

Expose yourself to be different from ordinary people and turn yourself into a monster that is feared by others."

"So, as long as we don't force her or her companions into a desperate situation, she won't take the initiative to use the power of the jinchūriki to resolve the crisis. And if the power of the nine tails is not used, her strength is probably

A stronger elite jonin won't be difficult to deal with."

"To sum up, in order to protect everyone, we have to fish more."
