He suddenly understood the benefits of monitoring him in his past life.
In those backward times, human life was as worthless as grass; once someone was killed, they would run away, making it virtually impossible to find the murderer.
However, even so, Gu Mu will not give up the investigation.
"Bang bang bang~"
"Enter."
Inside the Hokage's office, Tobirama Senju, who was clearly looking somewhat worried, immediately became serious upon seeing Koki's arrival.
"Lord Hokage, is there something you need from me?"
"Recently, spies near the Land of Iron have reported that Madara Uchiha has subdued the Nine-Tails and is heading towards Konoha."
"What are your thoughts on this matter?"
Tobirama Senju's words caused the expression beneath the ancient wooden mask to freeze.
Whatever your opinion, the best course of action is to play it safe. Besides Hashirama, who else can stop Madara Uchiha from running amok?
"Lord Hokage, how would you like to make arrangements?"
Seeing that this brat had passed the buck back to him again, Tobirama Senju was speechless.
"If I had to say, I would like you to go to the border of the Land of Iron and keep a close eye on Madara Uchiha's movements. If he ever plans to attack Konoha, send the message back immediately."
"After all, you have the Flying Thunder God Technique, so you shouldn't die under normal circumstances."
You old man, you actually know that this is under normal circumstances!
Others can slice a mountain flat with a single stroke when they run a 100-meter dash. Try running one yourself.
That damned old Deng, isn't he just sending him to his death?
"Ahem, is the Hokage serious?"
Gu Mu's tone was unusually serious.
"I...I'm serious, of course."
After Tobirama Senju finished speaking, he seemed to deflate completely. He knew that facing Madara Uchiha, Koki would likely be crushed to death.
But someone has to step forward.
Otherwise, if Madara Uchiha were to infiltrate Konoha and unleash the Nine-Tails' rampage, Konoha would surely suffer severe damage.
Right now, the most suitable candidate is Koki. In fact, Tobirama Senju really wanted to go himself, but he simply had too many things to deal with.
It's estimated that if they travel for a whole day, Konoha will be in chaos.
After all, his older brother really didn't know how to handle these things.
Moreover, Tobirama Senju suspected that this might be a decoy, a ploy to lure the enemy away from their prey.
"So, does the First Hokage know anything about this matter?"
"He doesn't know yet. Even if I told him that Madara Uchiha was going to attack Konoha, he probably wouldn't believe it."
Tobirama Senju's tone was one of helplessness.
"Alright then, in that case, I'll make a trip to the Land of Iron."
"You can bring people."
"No need."
Gu Mu shook his head. He himself wasn't very confident, yet he brought people along. Wouldn't that be handing over a double kill?
"Hmm..." Tobirama Senju thought for a moment before making a promise: "I will take good care of the Uchiha in that family. You can focus on completing the mission."
"Father, I trust you so much, you're not going to play me for a fool."
Gu Mu said something with a strange expression.
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in little kids."
If Uchiha Shizuru possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, he might have paid some attention, but Tobirama Senju was just a genin with two tomoe, and he didn't even consider him a threat.
As for why his son was so attentive to this Uchiha, he had some guesses in his mind. Most likely, he was bewitched and controlled by that little brat.

This kind of liking among young people will mostly fade away as they grow older.
"With your words of reassurance, I am relieved. I will relay the information back before Madara Uchiha attacks Konoha."
Koki roughly recalled the plot and it seemed that the final battle between Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju at the Valley of the End was most likely about to begin.
After that, Hashirama subdues the Nine-Tails, initiates the Five Kage Summit, and then Hashirama dies, which will trigger the First Shinobi World War.
When the Fourth Shinobi World War begins, almost all the Konoha ninjas will go to the battlefield and suffer heavy casualties. If I'm not mistaken, it seems that Tobirama will also sacrifice himself.
It seems I still have to save this old man from being tricked to death.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Mu suddenly stopped in his tracks as he was about to leave: "Lord Hokage, I still plan to bring someone with me."
"can."
Tobirama Senju's eyes were speechless. Did this kid not trust him?
Actually, that's not the case. Gu Mu thinks that this information might really be a smokescreen from Madara Uchiha.
If he had just left and Madara Uchiha attacked Konoha, and given his girlfriend's bad luck, she might have been hit in the face by a Tailed Beast Ball and wouldn't have been reduced to ashes.
It's better to rely on yourself than on others; it's more reassuring to keep things close to you.
Chapter 47 The real turmoil begins
(The real turmoil is about to begin...)
On the way, Gu Mu felt quite emotional. If there was any landmark event, it was that the superficial peace was about to end.
That must be the Nine-Tails' rampage launched by Madara Uchiha.
Having not witnessed the battle between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha firsthand, Koki had no idea just how terrifying these two were.
After removing his mask and changing into his usual clothes, Gu Mu arrived at the steamed bun shop that the three of them had founded.
In just one month, the three of them made a fortune.
During this period, quite a few families even planned to join in.
However, Gu Mu rejected them all. If possible, Gu Mu plans to open a chain store.
Ideally, it should be able to expand to other countries.
However, it seems that this matter will have to be put on hold for a while.
"Hey? Why aren't you in line? Can't you see how long we've been waiting?"
In the long queue, a young-looking ninja looked at the old man cutting in line with resentment.
His passionate demeanor gave him the illusion of a righteous young man, at least that's what he thought.
"Cut in line? You dare to cut in line if you dare?"
Seeing that many people were looking at him with admiration, this passionate young man felt quite confident.
Now that the Konoha Police Force has been officially established, the security environment in Konoha has become much more stable.
Ordinary people also felt particularly at ease and dared to speak out about unfair things.
"No, I don't buy steamed buns. I'm the boss, I'm going to jail."
Gu Mu turned his head, his expression showing a hint of helplessness.
"what?"
Not only was the enthusiastic young man bewildered, but the surrounding onlookers also showed varying expressions.
"Cough cough... It's alright now, it's alright."
The enthusiastic young man coughed lightly, feeling the many teasing gazes around him, his face flushed with embarrassment.
I finally dared to be bold once, but it resulted in a lifetime of introversion.
"what happened?"
Uchiha Shizumizu, who was busy at work, seemed to hear the commotion outside and came out of the kitchen on her own initiative.
Seeing her wearing an apron and with some flour on her face, looking like a little kitten, Gu Mu couldn't help but smile.
"Huh? Gu Mu, what are you laughing at?"
Uchiha Shizusui looked puzzled.
"nothing."
"Oh, by the way, what brings you here? Is there something you need?"
Uchiha Shizuru wiped his hands with his apron, instinctively assuming that he was about to go on a mission.
She was right.
"Just as you guessed, let's leave this shop to Sister Yingliu to manage, since we've already hired waitresses."
