Hyuga Kaze rested well for a day, made arrangements for the Uchiha clan members, and returned to Konoha to gather more intelligence before entering the training room space the next day.
He deliberately left Mrs. Mikoto alone in the space, partly to temper her temperament. After all, she had been the wife of a clan chief, and it was impossible for her not to have some pride deep down.
As soon as he entered the space, Hinata Kaze saw Mrs. Mikoto, who was dignified, with her back straight and sitting upright.
"My lord, you're back. I've finished checking the supplies you brought back. Please inspect them," Mikoto said respectfully as she stepped forward and bowed.
Even though she was left in this strange space for more than 30 hours, Mikoto still exuded elegance and intellect in every move she made, and she also carried a noble and graceful demeanor that came from someone who had long held a high position.
Looking at Mikoto, who stood respectfully with her hands at her sides, a step and a half away, Hinata Kaze's heart pounded violently. A locked room, a widow, a beautiful young woman—this seemed like it could create some special plot twists.
How delightful it would be to wantonly ravage such a delectable young woman! Hinata Kaze couldn't help but recall some classic lines, "Madam, you don't want to either..."
Shaking his head vigorously to clear his mind of the strange thoughts, Hinata Kaze spoke in a deliberately indifferent tone: "Not bad, tell me what's included."
Mikoto quickly glanced up at Hyuga Kaze, then swiftly looked down and pointed to a pile of neatly arranged items beside her. “Sir, please look over here. Because there are so many things, I’ve separated them. There are a total of 361 ninja tool bags, containing 2,514 explosive tags, 3,698 kunai, several shuriken, 4,509 soldier pills, and silver notes plus cash.”
Even though Mikoto is very knowledgeable, she was still shocked by so much wealth piled up together, so she couldn't help but pause for a moment before continuing.
"This part consists of separate supplies, including over 3,600 medicinal herbs, all sealed in medicine boxes and well-preserved. As for scrolls and books, there are over 60 prescriptions and over 400 ninjutsu scrolls, including secret techniques from the Uchiha, Sarutobi, Fourth Hokage, and Ino-Shika-Cho clans!"
Regarding grains, the total weight of various staple foods was [amount in catties].
After a moment's hesitation, Mikoto said apologetically, "As for those sealing scrolls, I'm really sorry, I don't know how..."
Mikoto bowed respectfully, looking ashamed, as if blaming herself for not being able to handle even such a small matter properly.
Hinata Kaze chuckled and reached out to stop Mikoto's actions. "It's alright. You can sort out the contents of the scroll slowly after I unseal it."
In fact, Mikoto's intellectual and gentle introduction made Hinata Kaze feel very comfortable, and he was very happy just by the supplies that Mikoto had sorted out.
These things are enough to support the operation of Snow Village for about a year.
Such a large amount of supplies will greatly help him in training his subordinates and building up his external influence.
Seeing that Hinata Kaze was in a good mood, Mrs. Mikoto gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and struck an alluring pose as she got out of the taxi.
"My lord, I know I have no right to make this request. But I am truly worried about my child. Could you please rescue Sasuke as well?"
Mikoto was also very worried about Itachi's condition. Last night, Itachi's arm was broken and he had a humiliating mark branded on his forehead. How could she be at ease in this situation?
However, she dared not mention Itachi. The mysterious and powerful figure in front of her clearly had a very bad impression of Itachi, and if the two of them met, Itachi would be in danger.
"Don't worry, your two eldest sons are both doing very well."
"That filial son Itachi, although I severely injured him, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others have almost healed him. He even had the energy to torture Sasuke again with Tsukuyomi!"
Hyuga Kaze teased Mikoto with a mischievous grin, and seeing that she remained silent while kneeling in apprehension, he continued, "It's not appropriate for you to see Itachi again, otherwise, for the sake of so-called peace, he might kill you again. As for Sasuke..."
Mikoto's body trembled slightly at the mention of Sasuke. Itachi actually used the Sharingan against his own brother? Sasuke is so young, how could he possibly withstand that?
"Sasuke is still living in Konoha, don't worry. Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others are quite skilled at using fancy tricks. Right now, many Konoha villagers, like Sasuke, believe that Itachi wiped out the Uchiha clan all by himself. Sasuke is safe in Konoha!"
Hyuga Kaze explained in detail to Mikoto what had happened in Konoha and how Hiruzen Sarutobi and his team had handled it.
Hearing this, Mikoto felt a little relieved, but she was still worried. "How will Sasuke live alone in Konoha? He's still so young."
Hyuga Kaze smiled slightly and said, "Actually, it's relatively safe for Sasuke to stay in Konoha right now. Itachi and the Konoha leadership have an agreement. Besides, if we take him out of Konoha and let him live with the remaining Uchiha clan members, how do you think those clan members will view him? Itachi ruthlessly slaughtered most of his clan members to protect Sasuke."
"Of course, I understand you're worried about Sasuke. If the situation is right, I'm not against taking you to see him. I could even place protective sealing techniques and the Flying Thunder God Seal on him, so I can rush to his aid if he's in danger!"
Upon hearing this, Mikoto didn't seem happy; on the contrary, she appeared even more worried. As an adult, Mikoto had long understood that there was no such thing as a free lunch.
So she carefully chose her words and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. I wonder how I can repay you?"
