Naruto: The Clan That Got Lost In History 21 Hope For The Better And Look Into The Future.

The light in the window showed that Hokage hadn't left yet. We entered into the building and ignoring the secretary at the lounge, walked inside the office. Has.h.i.+rama was sitting behind the desk with some doc.u.ments in his hand. Tobirama was also reading through the reports on different projects. When we opened the door, both of them lifted their heads in surprise and I could feel auras of those ANBU from the morning stiffen.

"Madara, Malika, what brings you here. It is already quite late." Tobirama asked.

"We will explain in a sec." I answered. Looking at the places where ANBU were stationed I gestured them to leave. This time the didn't protest and left quickly. I placed a barrier around us.

"Well, you see...." Madara told them about f.u.kushū, about the existence of the tablet and about the letter that changed him.

"I see. So the f.u.kushū had left the village and there was a message from long ago that led him in the wrong direction." Tobirama sighed. "Why is it so difficult with the Uchiha clan..." He muttered under his breath, but I could hear it clearly. I looked at him with a smile to remind him about 'that' time.

"Tobirama, it's not just Uchihas who can be troublesome. Any other living being can be as difficult to deal with if you set your mind that way. You should change that. Perhaps, another hour 'there' will help?" His body stiffened and he shook his head violently.

"Did you come here just to tell us about f.u.kushū?" Has.h.i.+rama put an end to our chit-chat.

"Actually, no. There is other piece of information that is really troubling." I confessed. " When f.u.kushūjust left, Madara decided to read what was written there and was almost dragged into an almost unbreakable Genjutsu."

The eyes of our Hokage and Tobirama widened. I can understand them. Uchiha clan is famous for their Doujutsu that granted a possibility of casting and breaking very complicated Genjutsu. Besides, Madara was the strongest Uchiha alive and had EMS so it was even more unbelievable.

"Remember marks that I put on all of us?"

"Those that we use for telepathy?"

"Yes, those. There is another function to them. If anything really dangerous happened to you, I would know and come to help." They nodded. "When Madara started reading, something invaded his body and was changing the very way he was thinking and perceiving the world. But while it was doing so, it accidentally triggered the mark, so I rushed to the place where Madara was. "

"When I appeared there, he was standing there hypnotized and wasn't responding. I removed the thing that invaded him and he came back to normal. I then checked the tablet and red through through the content and somewhere near the end it started to contradict itself..."

"You could read it? Madara just said that only the Sharingan can do that?" Has.h.i.+rama raised an eyebrow. Madara shook his head.

"Has.h.i.+rama, don't apply the common sense on her. It'll give you less headaches." He said jokingly, but somehow it felt a little annoying. Whatever.

"I ran my mana through the tablet and the letter on the tablet changed. That is when I found out about the Genjutsu. Look." I opened a tear in the s.p.a.ce and took out a little bit of the black substance from before.

As much as I don't like it, I still needed a little to examine it more thoroughly later. "This is how that Genjutsu looks like when it is removed from an object or a person. I took a quick glance at it and found out that it was specifically designed to have a greater effect on those with EMS, meaning, the stronger the eyes of the Uchiha get, the easier it is to get caught in this thing."

Their faces were really clouded and as dark as the starless night.

"Madara and I came to conclusion that someone is trying to unseal a very dangerous being....." I told them the true message.

"This is too much for us to handle..." Tobirama ma.s.saged his temples. "The village just started to stabilise, many projects are still are still being discussed or constructed. And here we have unknown enemy that now has a monstrous prodigy as his p.a.w.n. Great!"

"Now, Tobirama, right now we can do nothing. Malika already tried to locate him, but failed, so all we can hope for, is that he will be able to break that Genjutsu." Has.h.i.+rama tried to help, but..

"I don't think he will be able to." I stayed. "I do not doubt his abilities, but this Genjutsu is really powerful and special. It alters your consciousness and heart. Moreover, the longer the person is under its effect, the more entangled he becomes. I'm sorry."

The atmosphere became heavy and serious.

"Welp, we can do nothing about it for now!"

"Elder brother!"

"You said it yourself, Tobirama, we still have to manage the village. All we can do now is grow stronger to protect those who are dear to us and hope for the better. Madara, when do you think you will be able to finish with the design for the police and special unit office?"

Has.h.i.+rama, yup, he can be a really good leader when he wants to.

"A day or two at most." Madara knows that what can't be done, must be left alone and went with the flow.

"Good. Malika, can you please construct it when he will finish? We can't really prostrone this project as it carries a great amount of importance to the village. This also applies to the ANBU headquarters."

"Leave it to me, Hokage-sama!" I grinned widely and pointing my thumb at my chest told them. He flinched a little.

'Didn't expect that I'll call him by his t.i.tle, hehe.'

"We don't need those formalities when it is only us four, drop the 'sama' part at least, please. Besides, you and Madara are the Hidden Leaders, so your status is equivalent to mine." He sulked.

It was getting late, so we helped them with their paperwork and left the office together. On our way, Has.h.i.+rama told Madara, that when the police station will be formed, Madara will have to choose 50 best Uchiha to be part of the special unit and present them before him for approval. Well the later was just a formality. Officially, Has.h.i.+rama is the leader, so those kind of actions must be supervised... Politics is one of the reasons why I hate being the crown princess.

We parted at some point and went in our separate ways. I teleported straight home, changed into my pajamas and dived into my bed.

"Good night~" Today was so packed with different things, I'm tired and will sleep like a baby.

Naive. I woke up at the break of the dawn. s.h.i.+t.
