"But …"
After agreeing to Kushina's request, Minato changed the thread of discussion. Kushina's heart, which had just been relieved, became anxious again, and her eyes flashed with uneasiness.
"After school, you have to listen to my arrangements."
Watergate smiled gently. Shinna Kushina was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"I thought you didn't want to guide me anymore …"
Whenever Shinna Kushina was nervous, she would speak in a strange way. Her white face seemed to be sweating because she was worried that Watergate would go back on his words.
"Of course not, we are good friends."
Watergate smiled again. The reason why he made this request to Shinna Kushina was to get her to cooperate with him to get rid of the hidden Anbu.
As for the method, he had already thought of it.
Shinna Kushina blushed and said: "Let's … go back to the classroom, Mikoto should still be waiting for us for lunch."
Usually, the three of them would work together. Just now, the two of them suddenly ran out, which made Mikoto a little surprised.
"Okay." Watergate responded, and then went back to the classroom with Shinna Kushina.
The afternoon class was some basic exercises, there was no fixed pattern. Because everyone had a practice in the morning, they knew what they were lacking in.
But this time, most of the students were playing, and there weren't many who really worked hard, including Mikoto.
Although she didn't say anything when she was defeated by Uchiha, Shinna Kushina and Watergate knew that she was a very strong person.
But only Watergate could see that the gap between her and Uchiha Yan was not only in speed, but also because of the limitations of the field, the latter couldn't completely go all out.
Otherwise, Mikoto's Phoenix Sage Fire Jutsu wouldn't have been able to stop Uchiha Yan.
Of course, knowing how to use the geography is also a part of Mikoto's strength.
...
When it was close to the end of school, Shinna Kushina and Watergate secretly went to a place where there was no one.
"Watergate, what are you going to do?" Shinna Kushina didn't know what Watergate's intention was and asked.
Watergate smiled, then he bit his fingertip and smeared the blood on his palm, and his hands began to form hand seals.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
In front of the two, a giant toad half the size of a person appeared out of thin air. Even though Shinna Kushina was brave, she was scared and took a few steps back.
"Watergate, why did you call me out?" The giant toad said.
Watergate looked at Shinna Kushina's look and said: "Brother Toad Kai, I want to ask you a favor..."
This big toad called Toad Kai was an ordinary toad of the Mount Myobou.
"Well, what is it?"
Toad Kai didn't often come to the human world as a summoning beast because he didn't have much combat power, so no one would summon him out.
"I want you to turn into her appearance and walk out of the ninja school with my Shadow Clone."
With that, Watergate's hands formed hand seals again, and another him appeared beside him.
The Shadow Clone Jutsu was also recorded in the scroll given by Sandaime, and Watergate has been fighting with Jiraiya sensei's Shadow Clone Jutsu for a whole year, so he knows the characteristics of this technique very well.
So it didn't take too much effort to learn it.
Toad Kai was surprised when he saw this, "How old are you? You even learned the Shadow Clone Jutsu, I don't know how your stupid sensei got such a smart apprentice."
Although his combat power wasn't strong, he was 50 or 60 years old.
Watergate smiled softly and didn't speak.
"Well then."
Toad Kai smiled, then stared at Shinna Kushina and said, "This little girl is quite beautiful."
Immediately, he formed hand seals and directly changed into the appearance of Shinna Kushina.
Although Toad Kai wasn't good at fighting, he still knew the basic transformation technique.
During the whole process, Shinna Kushina didn't say a word, but hid behind Watergate. She seemed to be afraid of Toad Kai.
"Then I'll leave it to you. In a while at the school gate, you will be picked up and separated from my Shadow Clone. You only need to hold on for ten minutes without being discovered." Watergate said.
Toad Kai, who turned into Shinna Kushina, nodded, and then at this time, the school bell rang.
"Well, let's go." Watergate's Shadow Clone said and led Toad Kai away.
Watergate and Shinna Kushina were still temporarily staying here. Because of Watergate's request, Shinna Kushina was very quiet.
Because this place was very remote, even when there was a lot of traffic after school, no one noticed the two's whereabouts.
On the other hand, Watergate's Shadow Clone, Toad Kai, and Mikoto walked out of the school gate together. As usual, someone came to pick up Shinna Kushina.
After Shinna Kushina left, Mikoto and Watergate also separated, but the former looked suspicious and seemed to have noticed something.
Watergate's Shadow Clone left and returned, after circling around the Ninja School, he chose a place where there was no one around and dispelled the Shadow Clone.
In the Ninja School, Watergate, who was hiding in a hidden place, suddenly had a lot of information in his mind.
According to Sandaime's scroll, everything that the Shadow Clone experiences will be fed back to the main body, so it is often used to spy on intelligence.
Watergate, on the other hand, used it to observe the Anbu who protected Shinna Kushina.
They would never have dreamed that a nine-year-old student would be able to use so many ninjutsu and was able to detect their tracks.
After receiving Jiraiya's training for a year, Watergate couldn't tell what level he was at now.
"Well, let's go." Watergate said, and took Shinna Kushina to the back of the Ninja School and jumped out of the wall.
After coming out, he took Shinna Kushina and ran all the way, because Toad Kai couldn't delay them for too long. Although the Transformation Jutsu can change the appearance, it can't change the feeling of Chakra.
Twenty minutes after the end of the Ninja School, an Anbu wearing a cat mask rushed into Sandaime Naruto's office and knelt down.
Although he was wearing a mask and his expression couldn't be seen, from his urgent words, it was enough to see his anxiety at the moment.
"Sandaime Naruto -sama … Not good!"
Sandaime Naruto raised his resolute face, he wasn't affected by the Anbu's emotions and asked.
"A ninja must remain calm at all times, otherwise, it will affect his judgment and lead to the failure of the mission."
Sandaime Naruto said and asked, "What happened?"
The Anbu slightly restrained his emotions, but the urgency in his words didn't reduce at all.
"Uzumaki Shinna Kushina … was switched!"
