Ever since the teacher at the Ninja Academy said that Uzumaki Kushina had been abducted by invaders from the Uzushigakure, his spirits had been low.
He had even resolved that one day, he would rescue Kushina from the hands of the Uzushigakure!
Of course, he also had doubts at the time.
Because he remembered that Kushina had come to Konoha from the Uzushigakure.
Now that she had returned to the Uzushigakure, why would she be abducted?
Shouldn't this be her going home?
Carrying this doubt, he went to ask the teacher at the Ninja Academy.
Only then did he understand that the Uzushigakure had been destroyed previously, and Konoha, adhering to their alliance, had gone through great difficulty to protect Uzumaki Kushina, the sole remaining member of the Uzumaki Clan.
Now that the Uzushigakure was rebuilt, it had been occupied by other forces, and Uzumaki Kushina returning there was like a lamb walking into a tiger's den!
Hearing this, Minato Namikaze's heart immediately tightened.
He wished he could rush to the Uzushigakure immediately and save Kushina!
It wasn't just Minato Namikaze who thought this; almost all the students at the Ninja Academy, under the teachers' brainwashing, regarded the Uzushigakure as the villains who invaded Konoha and kidnapped Uzumaki Kushina!
They shared a common hatred, rolled up their sleeves, and prepared to teach the Uzushigakure a lesson in the future!
And this was exactly the goal Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to achieve.
He packaged Konoha as the victim and the Uzushigakure as the aggressor.
This stirred up feelings of shared hatred throughout Konoha, pulling them out of the despair over Konoha's decline and strengthening the village's cohesion.
It must be said that Sarutobi Hiruzen's methods were brilliant.
Uchiha Dan, who also received the mission, stared at the content on the mission scroll, a glimmer flashing in his eyes.
Although the mission stated it was to escort compensation materials to the Uzushigakure, the main focus was actually to inquire about Tsunade's whereabouts, and if possible, definitely bring Tsunade back to Konoha!
Besides being the Disciple of the Third Hokage, Tsunade was also the princess of the Senju Clan.
To the villagers of Konoha, Tsunade was the symbol of the Senju Clan.
At the same time, Tsunade was a genuine Genius and was also in charge of Konoha's Medical Department.
Her talent in Medical Ninjutsu was extremely high.
Since Tsunade took control of Konoha's Medical Department, Konoha's casualty rate had been greatly reduced.
Konoha could not possibly give up on such an elite talent.
Moreover, Uchiha Dan was even more concerned about Tsunade's situation.
He had been watching Tsunade for a long time, but unfortunately, he never had the chance.
Now, with the Land of Whirlpools Incident, Tsunade had plunged into the Space-Time Ninjutsu of the Uzushigakure, seemingly cutting off any possibility between them entirely.
But this mission gave him hope again.
"This mission is exactly what I wanted!"
Uchiha Dan's tone was firm, but before proceeding, he still needed to discuss the mission content with Lord Danzō.
On the surface, he was a lucky commoner Shinobi who completed several important missions for Konoha, earning him the right to learn a Forbidden Jutsu from the scroll of seals.
But behind the scenes, he had the support of Root.
