The next few days were pretty uneventful. Mito was usually doing the same thing, she would make sure everyone trained and did their duties she would train herself and then she would spent some time preparing seals for such large area which Kushina chose for place for birth of Naruto.
Mito then would do her paperwork and then would go home before it was too dark.
Orochimaru was busy with doing research in Uzumaki library and he would sometimes would go to lab and od few experiments, tgan he would train Anko for few hours. Mito had talked about Kabuto with him. She said he would be a great student.
Then finally Mito got the last report and she waited for council meeting to happen. She would appear as a person who us behind the investigation.
She sighed when she reported to Hokage and he nodded saying it would be discussed on next meeting which was tomorrow.
Mito went to home early that day only to realize that Tamura was teaching few chunins about seals. She was slightly surprised because she didn't knew they had began doing that. It seemed like it was first lecture. The few chunins that were there quickly recognized her and bowed towards her. Mito returned the gesture.
Tamura spoke :" Mito - chan, you are bit early today."
Mito nodded :" i had done my job sooner than i expected. I didn't know that our first students would come today. I would make sure that i was present then."
A chunin spoke :" you don't need to worry about that. We didn't have a prearranged meeting but Tamura - dono accepted us as his guests and students. "
Mito nodded :" i see. Uzumaki clan is well known for being friendly, but nonetheless there should be sone rules that needs to be followed. So please schedule your next lesson so that we can coordinate who would teach you. "
Chunin paled a bit as be said :" i understand. "
Mito chuckled :" you don't need to be afraid, you did a small mistake however i am not holding this against you, but i rather don't want this to happen again. "
Mito then went to her room and then she prepared for tommorow.
While Tamura was teaching the chunins about the basics of fuinjutsu and how important the neat writing was. He then at the end gave them kanji to learn to write and asked them for when they could meet again. It was decided that it would be always Friday like it was that day and around 6 p.m.
Tamura was then busy with making sure that Suzume was comfortable and that she didn't need anything.
Mito sighed softly as she entered the meting room in the morning she was to sit in shadows like usual. She would be there until it would end. So she would just train after it and then do her paperworks from yesterday and today. She waited for everyone to get there. Minato was last to enter. He had a calm demor around him.
The few matters Mito didn't pay much attention to because it seemed like it was boring stuff that Minato had already had solutions for. She waited for the last matter the one that civilans had been able to say things in. She was glad that civilans were getting weaker and weaker in council and were slowly placed where they belong.
Mito knew that civilans were mad because the shinobi left from stores and they thought it was discrimination.
The civilan side wanted to make Hokage order to return to their stores and that village pays for damage that was caused.
Minato nodded :" well since we heard one side of story we will hear the other side too."
Clan heads relaxed then they didn't know what exactly Hokage had but if he was calm it was surly enough. They knew if civians won this the whole process of making them weaker was for nothing.
Mito the appeared from shadows and a 11 papers were in front of her.
She cleared her throat as she spoke :" since lord third retired, Hokage - sama created a force for inspecting financial stability of village. As i am one of members that isn't currently busy with investigation i will present the things we found about this stores."
Minato nodded :" then shall we hear it. "
Civilian council paled for a bit.
But Mito continued without looking at them
:" we found that civilans weren't paying for taxes they needed, what is more the equipment they were selling wasn't what they told it was. Multiple people had problems with it. And when they complained about it, the civilan council hid it and threatened the people. What is more we found many illegal things happening around those stores. I will send you all a report, because i am to disgusted to even say about what they did. "
She then handed the papers to every clan head, one to Hokage who had already saw it and one to whole civilian council. Sje said that she had run out of papers from everyone there. However she was clearly sending them a message about how they weren't important.
To say that civilan council was pissed was understatement. They started to yell at both Minato and Mito :" you are scheming behind oir backs. This witch has obviously charmed you Hokage - sama, you can't believe her. We also think that the things you are doing with her are quite immoral."
Minato was a bit shocked as he asked :" what things."
Civilian asnwerd :" when we entered your office this young witch was sitting in your lap. "
Minato then exhaled sharply :" how dare you say that, as a civilan you should all know how humans function, this yound child does not have father, i didn't want her to not know how it feels to be loved from someone she considers fatherly figure."
Civilian council wasn't pleased by that answer. However it was time for voting and they hoped that thid would shake clans a little bit.
However they forgot how much clans loved Mito and Minato. They could believe what Minato had said easier than what civilians had said, and they knew that civilans were just trying to frame Hokage, they wouldn't let this happen. When voting was done, civilian council lost once more. Mito smirked as she watched them and crepply come closer to them saying :" you are done for, don't worry you will survive but i think that isn't something you should be grateful for, since you will wish that we killed you this moment."
When Mito took papers away from everyone. Hokage continued :" the punishment for all of these crimes will be paying the damage the casused to village by working they whole life. The work will be clearing the vent system and the underground. "which basically meant cleaning the shit. :" also these stores will be closed and their stories will be published in daily news. "
Once Mito was finally done with meting she went to train and to do her paperwork. She was pleasantly surprised when Shikaku appeared on her doors with shogi board. They played for a bit, talking about many things. Mito could relax around him she then spoke :"you know Shikaku - sama, i consider you a cool uncle i can tell anything."
Shikaku smiled :" i am glad, should i look ou for someone who also has this position."
Mito played along with his joke :" yeah, maybe Fugaku - sama."
Shikaku laughed. But spoke :" no i mean it seriously. "
Shikaku then stopped :" seriously, i thought you were bit afraid of him. "
Mito shifted for a bit :" no, not at all, it was just creepy how he would sometimes smile at me, excepting me to end up with Shisui."
Shikaku laughed :" and why did that bother you."
Mito answered :" Uchiha smiling is kinda creepy, especially if it comes from such stiff person as Fugaku. "
Shikaku nodded at that. He couldn't but to ask :" so did you decide who is lucky guy. "
Mito froze and then asnwerd :" i haven't, i think i am close but i am not going to force myself to decide now. It could be wrong decision and maybe i would end up alone. I don't think i can handle that. I also think we are all too young. Some of us don't have 10 years."
Shikaku nodded :" that is also true, Shisui - kun Is 8 but he is very mature for his age. "
Mito nodded :" that is true, but it still makes me a bit uneasy. However it will be fine when I am older. "
Mito then asked :" did you find replacement for all of the civilan council members. "
Nara nodded :" we are still searching for them, but this time we are making sure that we gather respectful and justified people. "
Mito nodded :" i see, that is good, do you need our help. We can make sure to look into their pasts and inform you of anything suspicious. "
Nara nodded :" that would be helpful, that is actually reason while i came. "
Mito nodded :" ah, you broke your cover, i really thought you liked playing with me. "
Nara chuckled :" i do, but I wouldn't come tomorrow but rather tommorow when i know. You will be less busy. "
Mito nodded :" then the root will take care of checking backgrounds of civilan candidates. "
Mito then gathered the root and then assigned everyone with checking one civilian candidate. It was lucky that there wasn't many candidates. Mito then went home again. This time she wasn't surprised to see someone sitting with Tamura. It was trio she didn't expect but they didn't seem to be studying just yet but rather they were there to arrange lectures. The trio was team 7. They didn't seem to notice her. She then slowly crept behind them and looked at schedule area they were talking about. Mito then said :" oh, that time i can teach you if you want."
The trio was startled out of their sits.
Mito chuckled at theirs expressions:" what didn't you know i live here."
The trio then asked :" Really could you teach us."
Mito nodded :" if you really want to. I can make time for your lessons. However if i don't have time, Tamura - sama will take care of you."
Team 7 eagerly agreed to it. Mito was satisfied with the deal. She then went to the Uzumaki library she then took out a book especially for beginners. She noticed how Orochimaru was busy reading there. She went to team 7 and gave them the book :" read this book and you will get some knowledge that you will need later."
Team 7 then left. And Mito went to where she last saw Orochimaru. She then asked him :" do you need help."
Orochimaru stood up :" ah yeah, i was searching for a book about famous ninjutsu of Uzumaki clan. "
Mito nodded :" they are at very back of library. I can show you how the library is arranged."
Orochimaru nodded. Mito then showed him all of the sections and then brought him to the book he needed.
Mito then left him seeing that he started to read it. Mito then went to middle of library. She didn't went there for few days. She had left Lisa there. While Lisa was not useful as others in combat, but Mito would bring her with herself if she would go to it. She knew there wasn't any need for it so she had left it there.
She then pet Lisa's core and Lisa appeared. The battery that Mito had made was perfect and it seemed like it was orginal. Lisa then spoke :" it's been a long time since we talked."
Mito nodded :" i am sorry i was a bit busy."
Lisa nodded :" it is fine. I know. I just was bit bored since nobody was walking in. But over time few guest had come."
Mito nodded :" do you mind if i leave you here for few days here. "
Lisa nodded :" there is no need to worry. But i would appreciate if you also talked with other relics. "
Mito nodded :" of course, i have time today so i was about to talk to them too. I still didn't manage to connect with Rosé and Jennie. But i can feel a bit closer."
Lisa nodded :" i see, that is great news. "
Lisa then dissappeared as she felt Orochimaru come closer. Mito then turned towards him :" what brings you here. "
Orochimaru looked at her :" you didn't show me this place. "
Mito smirked :" this is a place only for Uzumaki members. I did not think you are ready for it."
Orochimaru chuckled :" you were talking with someone here."
Mito nodded :" i did, it was gourdian of this place."
Orochimaru chuckled :" are you serious. "
Mito nodded :" of course. Uzushino was famous for having high level technology. "
Orochimaru asked :" then is the gourdian a technology. "
Mito nodded :" Lisa appaer, there isn't any danger here. "
Orochimaru was surprised when a young Uzumaki girl suddenly appeared next to Mito he could feel no presence and no heat increase. He could guess that she wasn't alive.
Mito then spoke :" this is Ai Lisa, she is a program that protected Uzumaki library for generations, and this is Orochimaru, one of my precious people."
Lisa bowed :" it is nice to meet you."
Orochimaru nodded :" pleasure was mine. It am actually curious how you work."
Mito chuckled :" you really are something, while all of humans wonder how we are alive, you want to learn how she works. "
Orochimaru chuckled as he got his complicated answer. He didn't understand everything but he got a general idea.
Then it was time for closing of library. Both of them exited and Mito went to her house. She went to talk with Jisoo by taking her out of scroll. The sword layed down and Mito channeled her chakra and Jisoo's voive boomed in her head. :" yoha, it is been long time, i have so much energy, wil you train with you soon."
Mito nodded :" i promise, tommorow. But can i ask something."
Jisoo voice was cheerful :" sure, i willing to help you."
Mito smiled :" do you know why i can't connect with others. "
Jisoo answered :" there is one thing that I heard about. The blood contact."
Mito smirked :" does it have special method that requires."
Jisoo answered :" no, however i do not actually know if it is connected with these two relics. "
Mito smirked :" thank you, i will keep my promise. "
She then bit her thumb and put a drop of blood on her necklace that is called Rosé. She could feel something change. Something shined in front of her and suddenly she heard a voice :" hello, Uzumaki princess, i am surprised to see you know pf this technique of making contact with us."
Mito nodded :" i was helped by Jisoo the sword."
Rosé :" ah, the sword, i see, i know that you know of my name. It poped in your mindscape just as yours poped into mine. "
Mito nodded :" that did happen. It is nice to meet you. I wanted to ask you, if there is anything special about this type of connection."
Rosé who was speaking in her mond again :" there aren't much, but some relics as i only can talk with you this way. The Jennie is same, i can feel her nearby . "
Mito nodded :" yes, thank you answering me. "
Mito then proceeded to pour some of her blood on ingraved Jennie name on kunai. A spark lit in front of her. Mito could feel something eneter her mindscape it was a chold who looked to be around Mito's age.
Mito spoke :" it is nice to finally meet you Jennie."
Jennie cutely spoke :" ah, it is nice to meet you too Mito-sama, i was unsure if you would actually manage to contact i will always follow your lead."
Mito smiled as she nodded :"thank you."
Jennie however shake her head :" there is no need to say thank you to me. I am grateful that someone is finally using me."
Mito smiled :" then i will train with you too then."
Jennie nodded :" thank you."
