In Naruto, build the strongest Hidden Mist Village.

Chapter 47 Orochimaru: I will give you the position of Mizukage

After a moment's thought, Kaguya Naoki casually put the scroll into his pocket without making any further guesses.

Orochimaru possessed a wide range of methods and formidable strength, yet he lacked the means to defeat Kaguya Naoki.

When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it. That's all there is to it.

Everything will become clear sooner or later.

With that thought in mind, Naoki Kaguya continued his performance, waving, encouraging, and celebrating.

After responding to the fanatical Kirigakure ninja, he went straight into his commander's tent and looked at the girl with bright red hair.

"deep!"

Naoki Kaguya closed the door and called out to Mei Terumi, who was hunched over the table, with a hint of excitement.

Although it had only been three days, he preferred the gentle embrace of this place to the bloodshed on the battlefield.

"Alright, Naoki."

"I know you've taken down Sunagakure."

Mei Terumi shook her head helplessly, concealing her joy. She quickly frowned again and held up a yellowed sheet of paper covered with dense black tadpoles.

"Come and look at this."

Naoki Kaguya stopped smiling, leaned closer, and clenched the paper in his hand.

After glancing at it a few times, his expression immediately turned serious, and he began to carefully peruse it.

Kushina, Orochimaru, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, and the Uchiha clan.

Although the number of soldiers was small, they were elite, and not just any ordinary elite troops.

Naoki Kaguya murmured, his expression turning grim.

The disparity in high-level combat power is even more pronounced.

This is the foundation of Konoha, the number one ninja village, which is completely incomparable to Sunagakure.

Naoki Kaguya couldn't help but sigh.

He, Kaguya Naoki, could hunt and kill at will outside Sunagakure, provoke the Kazekage, and force him to defeat in three days.

But against Konoha, they could only defend silently.

Now, even defense is probably proving difficult.

The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Kushina, along with the Mukan Ino-Shika-Cho trio, a large number of elite Jonin from the Uchiha clan, and Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin.

If we also consider Minato Namikaze, who can withdraw from the battlefield in the Land of Lightning at any time to defend, this war has already seen more losses than wins!

Keep in mind that Kaguya Naoki can at most hold off a Kage-level opponent!
"What's wrong?
Naoki.

Mei Terumi originally intended to use her serious expression to warn Naoki Kaguya, who had been having a smooth journey, to be humble and avoid carelessness that could lead to defeat.

But now.

Her eyes scanned the surroundings. After years of getting to know each other, she had a vague feeling that Naoki was indeed in a pessimistic mood at this moment.

"nothing."

Naoki Kaguya sighed.

"Prepare to evacuate if you want to finish in a victorious posture."

This war may be coming to an end.

"why?"

Mei Terumi immediately sprang to her feet, her face filled with disbelief and questioning.

"Even if there is a slight disparity in high-level combat power, we still have sufficient troops. There's no need for us to withdraw now."

Thinking of the Nine-Tails' fluttering tails, Orochimaru's Eight-Headed Serpent, the Uchiha clan's crimson Sharingan, and Minato Namikaze's record of forty kills per second, Kaguya Naoki shook his head bitterly.

"Sometimes, quality really does far outweigh quantity."

"how come."

Mei Terumi wanted to argue a few more points.

"Naoki, you go and fight Orochimaru. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen will defend against Kushina and the Ino-Shika-Cho trio. The Uchiha clan and other troops will be left to our massive forces."

Mei Terumi kept rambling on, trying to persuade Naoki Kaguya to give up the idea of ​​evacuating.

After all, this was the most successful, most fruitful, and most glorious battle Kirigakure had ever fought since its founding.

All of this can be glimpsed from the heartfelt worship that everyone in the Hidden Mist Ninja, from top to bottom, has for Kaguya Naoki.

This hasty ending left not only her but all the Hidden Mist ninjas feeling resentful.

"How can it be."

Naoki Kaguya smiled, looked into Mei Terumi's serious eyes, and suddenly asked with a hint of realization.

"What do you guys think of Kushina?"

"Hmm?" Mei Terumi replied in confusion, then reached out a hand to the table and immediately found Kushina Uzumaki's information among the mountain of documents.

"Minato Namikaze's wife, an elite Jonin, rarely takes action and has few achievements."

Mei Terumi frowned and looked carefully, but found nothing unusual.

Listening to Mei Terumi's quiet mutterings, Naoki Kaguya sighed helplessly.

"deep."

“Read her surname.”

姓。

Mei Terumi read it aloud with a slight hint of doubt.

"swirl."

"Ok?"

Mei Terumi first replied as if she had just realized something, then immediately asked in disbelief.

"Jinchūriki?"

"Probably, probably, ninety-nine percent, after all, the previous Jinchūriki, Mito Uzumaki, was a woman from the Uzumaki clan."

"In that case..."

Mei Terumi's face darkened, and she unconsciously fiddled with the sweat-soaked documents in her hand.

"Faced with a creature like the Nine-Tails, even adding several thousand more troops wouldn't be effective."

"Although I am really unwilling."

Mei Terumi sighed.

"Then, let's do it the way you do, Naoki."

"I'll take care of the rest for you."

"Ah."

Naoki Kaguya nodded slightly.

"However, don't tell anyone else yet."

"Before retreating, I need to find Orochimaru alone at least once more to boost my reputation."

"Orochimaru?"

Mei Terumi snapped out of her daze and sighed.

"A ninja like Orochimaru, with terrifying strength and a cautious mind."

Halfway through her sentence, seeing Kaguya Naoki's confident expression, Terumi Mei shook her head dejectedly and gave up on advising Kaguya Naoki to be careful.

After all, she now had no idea what Kaguya Naoki's limits were; he was probably one of the stronger ninjas even among Kage-level ninjas.

Hidden beneath her flowing, fiery red hair, Mei Terumi rolled her eyes and pushed Naoki Kaguya away.

"Then go ahead and do it."

"I have other things to do."

"Ah."

Naoki Kaguya's gaze shifted, and he casually grabbed a glass of water, activated his chakra, froze it, and placed it in front of Mei Terumi.

"Ming, drink more hot water."

With that, Kaguya Naoki had already slipped out the door.

It's still early, why don't we go see Orochimaru?

An hour later, in a dense forest in the Land of Fire, a figure dressed entirely in white appeared, strolling leisurely.

"Naoki-kun, have you been waiting for me for a long time?"

"Perhaps, Orochimaru-kun."

"My time is precious right now, Orochimaru-kun, let's get straight to the point."

"Humph."

The leaves rustled, and a figure emerged silently from the shadows.

But naturally, it didn't escape Kaguya Naoki's eyes. He immediately turned around and looked over.

"Naoki-kun".

In the field of vision, Orochimaru wore his signature eerie smile.

"I want to give you the position of Water Shadow."

"In exchange, I also need some experimental materials."

Tomorrow is Tuesday, and as usual, I'd like to ask everyone to come and support me. Thank you in advance!
