Chapter 53 - Chapter 53: Reminder

Kawaki's house, Mito's room.

Kirito's soul silently entered it through the wall, but just as he approached Mito's five meter range, Mito, who was originally lying on bed and sleeping, suddenly opened her eyes.

At the same time, a kunai pierced from behind Kirito, piercing his soul.

"It's me, Momo-sama."

Kirito revealed his original form, raised his hands high, and turned to Senju Momo, who was showing a surprised expression behind him.

"At this late hour, what are you doing sneaking into Lord Mito's room by using your Spirit Transformation Jutsu, you brat?"

Momo said in a cold voice as she saw the identity of the mysterious person clearly.

Although her voice contained anger and skepticism, she withdrew her weapon and stared coldly at Kirito, waiting for his explanation.

"Kirito, is something serious going on?"

Mito asked.

She knew Kirito as a child, and unless he had encountered something big, there was no way he would do something so presumptuous as breaking into a woman's room at night.

As she said that, she casually made a strand of her hand, a stream of chakra was released from her, and a large amount of sealing jutsu formed by chakra was spread out in the room, quickly arranging a sealing boundary that shielded her senses in the room.

"Mito-sensei, something big has happened, I just went out for a night trip and discovered that there are Root ninjas secretly destroying the boundary of the Senju Clan territory, and there is an inside helper ..."

Once the sealing boundary was formed, Kirito immediately told what he had just found out in full.

Mito and Momo naturally believed what Kirito said, but the content was too shocking.

Mito is worthy of being the strongest person in Konoha Village at present. She is full of confidence. When she heard that an Anbu ninja destroyed the barrier, she was not too shocked. Her expression did not change. Even when she heard that Orochimaru, a third-generation disciple, helped, she was still very calm.

It was only when she heard that the three of them, Senju Yamate, Senju Layton, and Senju Shimizu, betrayed the Senju clan that her face changed slightly.

Mito let out a long sigh, revealing a heart-tired expression.

On the other hand, Momo on the side was already furious, her veins protruding from her forehead, her eyes overflowing with murderous aura, and her fists clenched in a deadly grip, with a look of viciousness, obviously having exploded with anger.

If it wasn't for the fact that Mito was still here and she still needed to do her duty as a guard, she would have rushed out to fight with those ANBU and traitors.

The Senju clan, one of the founders of the Konoha village, had made countless contributions to Konoha, but was actually being bullied by a group of small-minded people who were only able to live in the gutter.

This is really intolerable.

In addition to the incomparable indignation, Senju Momo's heart was also incomparably ashamed.

She suddenly fell to her knees in front of Mito and blamed herself, "Lord Mito, I am to blame for this, I didn't even realize Yamate's ambitions, and I even let him become the vice-captain, I really failed in my duty."

She herself was the captain of the Senju Guards, and Senju Yamate was the one who promoted her, and now that Senju Yamate had become a shameful traitor, she was responsible for failing to use her personnel.

"Alas~, Momo, get up, this matter can't be completely blamed on you, I also have faults, I actually have sensed that this child Yamate is dissatisfied with me in his heart, I just didn't think he would go this far, and actually degenerated to the point of being in the company of this brat, Danzo."

Mito got down from the bed, then helped Momo up with her hand and consoled her.

She is the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki. Although she has not achieved the connection with the Nine-Tails, she can fully control the power of the Nine-Tails with her strong strength.

So like the nine tails chakra mode, she naturally has the ability to do, even without having to enter the nine tails chakra mode, also has the ability to perceive good and evil.

Back then, she vaguely realized that Yamate had malicious intent towards her, but didn't care too much about it.

Because after Tobirama died, many people were dissatisfied with her acting as the leader of the Senju clan.

Over the years, Yamate was indeed loyal to Senju, and had made great contributions to Senju and Konoha on the battlefield. His strength was top-notch in the clan, and he had great prestige in the clan. She personally nodded her head to let him serve as the deputy captain of the guard.

This is also considered a means of balance, used to appease the opposition in the clan.

But she really didn't expect Yamate to actually degrade himself to the point of being in the company of Danzo, and in turn backstabbing the Senju clan that gave birth to him and raised him.

She was the one who set up the sealing boundary of the Senju clan, and she had just placed her hand on the ground and slightly sensed the sealing boundary, and knew that what Kirito had said was not false, and that Yamate had indeed betrayed the Senju clan.

"Teacher Mito, give the order. While those guys haven't left yet and haven't noticed yet, now is a good opportunity to catch them. Once they find out that something is wrong and evacuate safely, it will be difficult to catch Danzo and Sandaime."

Seeing this, Kirito interjected.

Time was running out, now was not the time to comfort each other.

"That's right, Mito-sama, these guys must be severely punished, otherwise those rats in the gutter will only become even more emboldened, it's time for this guy, Danzo, to be punished."

Momo couldn't agree more with Kirito's words and gritted her teeth.

She had long been on the verge of holding her breath, and she was determined to personally beat this shameful traitor, Yamate, half to death in a few moments.

The face of Senju had been disgraced by this traitor.

When Mito heard Kirito and Momo's words, she didn't say anything right away, but was just frowning and thinking.

She was in a different position from where Kirito and Momo stood, although she was a Senju Matriarch by proxy, her ultimate goal was to fulfill the promise she had made with Shodaime to guard Konoha, and she was not able to act on her own accord.

With her eyesight, she quickly realized that the cause of this incident had something to do with Kirito, herself, and Kushina, and she reckoned that brat Danzo intended to use them as bait to lure out the spies lurking in Konoha.

With that brat Danzo's ruthless and unscrupulous character, it is not surprising that he would do such a thing.

As for whether this matter was related to Sandaime, it was still hard to say.

She knew Sandaime's character, in order to seek stability and protect the village, nine times out of ten, he would not make such a risky decision as putting the Jinchuuriki in danger.

It was likely that this matter was made privately by Danzo in conjunction with Orochimaru.

Also, if she were to explode this powder keg tonight and reveal all the details of this matter, the result would naturally be that the interests of the Senju clan would be safeguarded, and that Danzo, Orochimaru, and Sandaime would be severely chastised.

But then, Konoha's internal affairs will definitely be thrown into chaos, will this be a good result for Konoha, which is currently under attack from all directions?

Although her heart was very dissatisfied, but for the sake of the overall situation, Mito did not lose her head after all.

For this matter, she decided to keep a low profile.

Then the question came, how would she handle it in a low-key manner?

"Mito-sensei, if you want to keep a low profile, you might as well get the evidence first. You can catch everyone first, and then catch them red-handed. Then, keep a low profile in the way you want. With your strength, you should be able to catch all the rats without alerting most people in the village."

At that moment, Kirito spoke again.

When Mito heard Kirito's words, she immediately brightened up and said to Kirito with a smile, "Of course, look at your teacher."

As soon as the words left her mouth, the Yin Seal on her brow lit up with a shimmering light.

The Mito in front of Kirito's eyes then quickly re-transformed from a kindly old woman back into a curvaceous, mature beauty.
