Chapter 921

"Bleeeh, Teacher Iruka, you think I'm stupid? There's no way I'm going to stand still!" Having long known Iruka would definitely turn into a powder keg, Naruko had already fled to the school's wall. She turned back, made a face at Iruka and stuck out her tongue, then leaped and vanished into the bustling street.

"Uzu—ma—ki—Na—ru—ko."

Kaguya-hime kept an expressionless face. She somewhat suspected that the feathered robe's aura on Naruko might be fake; she did not recall having given birth to such a mischievous daughter.

Hokage's Office.

"Phew, this pile of paperwork is finally done." Namikaze Minato stretched, though in reality he had stayed up all night processing from last night until now and had only just finished "a pile" of documents.

But that did not hinder her good mood. Rubbing her tired eyes, she planned to go back and sleep for a while; surely Kushina's breakfast had been prepared for her too.

"Right, I should go to the ninja school to check on Naruko first. Hmm, it's been two days, I really miss her."

A certain Hokage, in high spirits and planning to see her daughter, had no idea what was about to happen next.

And a certain little fox likewise did not know what would happen to her after being late and then skipping class to wander and play.

"Waaa! Sana, this week I'm depending on you to keep me alive!" The next day at school, the moment she entered the classroom and saw her, Uzumaki Naruko—with a face that carried a hint of foxy charm, looking wronged like a crying baby—was clinging to Uchiha Sana's arm, swaying it back and forth.

Kaguya-hime somewhat believed what the novels said: the Nine-Tails had definitely left many fox-like traits on Naruko.

"L-let go! Stupid Naruko!" Uchiha Sana was startled by this sudden change in style from her friend. It was clearly only one day, so how had her personality completely changed?

This was absolutely not the Uzumaki Naruko he knew!

"Ah, Lin Cheng, why are you standing at the door and not going in?"

"Woof!"

In fact, if it were merely two little friends roughhousing, this naturally could not have drawn Kaguya-hime's interest. Actually, she had been using her Byakugan the whole time, perceiving the shadows of the past on those two, which was why she had not paid attention to Inuzuka Kiba and his ninja hound Akamaru walking up from behind.

"Woof! Awoo!" Seeing that Kaguya-hime seemingly had not heard, Akamaru barked once more. The result was that after Kaguya-hime's Byakugan swept over him subconsciously, the poor little fellow trembled and fell silent atop Inuzuka Kiba's head.

An animal's intuition is often sharper than a human's, even though previously the body was still under Lin Cheng's control.

Because Kaguya-hime would occasionally influence her behavior, Lin Cheng feared this "ghost" within her might harm others, so she always tried to stay as far away as possible from everyone nearby.
