"Kid, where are you going?"
Renye put on his vest, tidied his ninja tool pouch, and strapped innocence to his waist.
As soon as he stepped out of the house, he ran into Senju Tobirama.
"Uncle, I'm going to the Mission Assembly Hall to pick up a mission," Renye explained.
Hearing this, Senju Tobirama instinctively frowned, a hint of displeasure in his expression: "You just returned to the village and you're already leaving?"
Can this kid not stay at home?
"I haven't done missions for a long time; it's not good to neglect it for too long."
Seeing that Renye had said all he could, what more could Tobirama say?
He could only silently watch Renye leave the courtyard.
After Renye had completely walked away, Senju Tobirama's face darkened as he turned and entered his study.
"I knew I shouldn't have let that kid off last night..."
He had intended for Renye to get a good night's rest, but he didn't expect this outcome.
————————
After leaving home, Renye didn't rush to the Mission Assembly Hall.
Instead, he planned to find his former teammates to go on a mission together.
"I wonder if those two have been on missions these past few months?" Renye muttered to himself.
If they had been on missions, would that mean they were one teammate short?
In that case, it would be more difficult for them to complete missions with just two people.
After all, Danzo and Koharu's strength was only at the Special Jonin level; their overall strength simply couldn't compare to a Jonin.
Unless they didn't accept A-rank missions, they would absolutely require teamwork.
And teamwork couldn't avoid a powerful teammate.
Thinking this, Renye quickly entered the Shimura clan compound and arrived at Danzo's doorstep.
"Is Danzo home?" Renye knocked on the door.
Soon, a middle-aged woman opened the door, and a gentle smile appeared on her face when she saw Renye.
"Oh, it's Renye-kun. Please wait a moment, I'll call Danzo right away."
"Thank you, Auntie," Renye nodded in response.
As soon as the middle-aged woman left, Danzo came to the door.
"Uchiha Renye, you're finally back!" Danzo couldn't help but complain when he saw Renye: "Where did you run off to all this time?"
He remembered that at first, Renye had only said he would give them two days off.
A few days later, they were surprised to find that Renye had disappeared.
They even searched for a while but found nothing.
The two of them even speculated that Renye had met with an accident...
"Sorry, I was out playing for a few months," Renye awkwardly rubbed his nose.
There was nothing he could do; Senju Hashirama's invitation was too sudden, and he didn't have a chance to tell them.
He had thought it wouldn't take long to go out, but who would have thought that this trip would last three months?
"You said you went out to play?" Danzo's eyes widened in shock, and he couldn't help but raise his voice, "And for three months?!"
"Don't get so agitated, I'm back, aren't I?" Renye picked at his ear.
"Bastard, do you know what I went through these three months?" Danzo angrily stepped forward and grabbed Renye's collar.
Recalling these three months, Danzo Shimura felt as if he could barely breathe.
During the days Renye was away, it was just him and Koharu going on missions.
When they encountered ordinary enemies, they could manage with their cooperation.
But if they encountered a Jonin, they struggled.
Especially when the opponent was a three-person squad, the two of them simply couldn't handle it.
Even if they won, it was a very difficult victory.
Eventually, the two of them simply stopped accepting A-rank missions.
If there was still no news of Renye, they would have no choice but to join Hiruzen Sarutobi's squad.
Fortunately, Renye finally returned.
But what annoyed Danzo was that this bastard Renye had suddenly disappeared just to travel.
The most crucial part was that he didn't take them with him!
This bastard went off to enjoy himself alone, leaving them to almost die on missions.
He thought of himself spitting blood after being hit by an enemy, while this bastard Renye was enjoying top-tier cuisine in a high-class restaurant.
Thinking of this, Danzo clenched his fists, wishing he could punch Renye's handsome face twice.
"Danzo, calm down," Renye swallowed.
Seeing Danzo's agitated state, he was quite afraid that he would actually hit him...
"Calm down? How can I calm down!" Danzo's saliva sprayed onto Renye's face.
Just as Danzo was about to say more, he suddenly met a pair of scarlet eyes, and then he froze in place.
"Hehehe..."
Saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth, and he wondered what he was seeing in the genjutsu?
"Finally, it's quiet," Renye rubbed his brow helplessly.
Danzo's temper seemed to be getting worse and worse.
It looked like he was gradually transforming into that cunning and scheming 'Pot King' from the original story...
But for now, it was fine; his temper was just a bit bad, which was still acceptable.
If push came to shove, a good beating would make him behave.
Thinking this, Renye dispelled the genjutsu.
"Uchiha Renye, you bastard!" Danzo raised a hand to wipe the saliva from his mouth. "Forget it, I'll let you off for now."
He hadn't expected Renye to use that kind of genjutsu on him!
It made him not even want to wake up from the genjutsu...
Indeed, genjutsu works best when it caters to the target's desires!
Don't misunderstand, Renye only made Danzo the Hokage in the genjutsu.
And yes, he also made Hiruzen Sarutobi show expressions of envy, jealousy, and hatred in front of Danzo.
Although he didn't see the scene in the genjutsu, he could imagine that Danzo's mouth must have been stretched almost to his ears, right?
It must be said, this move was very effective on Danzo.
This genjutsu might only be B-rank for others, but for Danzo, it was an S-rank genjutsu.
Let's tentatively call this genjutsu 【Danzo's Ecstatic Flip】.
From now on, whenever Danzo is unhappy, this move can turn his cloudy mood sunny.
Danzo still seemed to be savoring the scene he saw in the genjutsu, the flush on his face not yet faded.
If only one day he could truly become Hokage.
The scene in the genjutsu was simply tailor-made for him.
Hiruzen's complex gaze was truly captivating!
Shock, confusion, blankness, unwillingness, regret, jealousy, and envy intertwined—it was simply the most perfect painting!
Recalling the scene he had just witnessed, if Renye hadn't been there, he almost couldn't resist laughing uproariously.
He had material for his dreams tonight...
Renye looked at Danzo, who was frozen in place, a confused expression on his face.
What's going on? Didn't I already dispel the genjutsu?
Why is Danzo still like this?
Could it be... my dōjutsu power has increased?!
But soon, he realized Danzo was just spacing out.
Renye reached out and waved his hand in front of Danzo, who then snapped out of his fantasy.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, I zoned out for a moment," Danzo's face was as red as a monkey's backside, and he turned his head away, afraid Renye would see.
Renye looked at Danzo's appearance and sighed inwardly, "It seems 【Danzo's Ecstatic Flip】 is even more powerful than I imagined; it can already affect reality from genjutsu."
This genjutsu should be used with caution...
It would be troublesome if this kid took it seriously.
After all, at fourteen or fifteen years old, it's easy to fantasize.
It would be problematic if he couldn't distinguish between fantasy and reality later on.
