Konoha: Becoming a God Starting with Aburame

Chapter 208 Whirlpool Yangjie: Watch me give a loud speech and rebel!

Looking at Kisame, who was exuding a powerful aura, the Third Mizukage nodded.

"It seems the experiment on the Heavenly Demon has increased your chakra again; the title of Tailed Beast without a Tail is truly well-deserved."

Kisame grinned, revealing rows of sharp teeth. The densely packed, sharp teeth spiraled down into his throat, looking extremely dangerous.

"The experiment on the Heavenly Demon has indeed brought me a great improvement. My chakra reserves have increased dramatically, and my ability to absorb chakra has also been enhanced, almost catching up with the original Samehada."

"No wonder so many people are willing to take the gamble even though they know the mortality rate of the Heavenly Monster Experiments is staggering."

Kisame, feeling his immense power, remarked with emotion.

Yes, even without Samehada, Kisame possesses the ability to absorb chakra, and this ability has become even stronger.

And... Kisame looked at Samehada, this greedy weapon.

Samehada, the celestial demon, races wildly toward devouring chakra, driven by an insatiable hunger.

Even if Kisame's ability to absorb chakra is enhanced, it is still no match for Samehada.

During the struggle for dominance, Kisame's chakra was once consumed by Samehada. If it weren't for Kisame's tempered spirit and his surging chakra, he might not have been able to suppress Samehada, which was driven by his hunger instinct.

After Kisame's experiment with the Heavenly Youkai ended, Uehara Ishiki entered and reported to the Third Mizukage:

"Lord Mizukage, someone from the Uzumaki clan has come to see you, saying they have important matters to report."

"The Uzumaki clan...didn't they just settle down? Why are they coming to me instead of recuperating?"

The Third Mizukage spoke with interest.

"Should I send them away?"

Uehara Ishi spoke up, saying that he did not want this to happen. The Uzumaki clan was the sword chosen by Lord Danzo, and he did not want the Uzumaki clan to be too active before using this sword.

"It's different. Since they've come to me, that explains things. I also want to meet the members of the Uzumaki clan."

Upon hearing the Third Mizukage's words, Uehara Ishi knew that the outcome was unchangeable, so he immediately said respectfully, "I will bring the Uzumaki clan members here right now."

The Whirlpool Clan had no objection to Whirlpool Yangjie being appointed as the acting clan leader. Among the group of old, weak, sick, and disabled Whirlpool Clan members, Whirlpool Yangjie was considered outstanding.

The current Whirlpool Clan does indeed need a young clan leader to lead them in revival.

At first, Yangjie only talked about the glorious history of the Uzumaki clan and how everyone should work hard to revive the Uzumaki clan.

This book was first published on 2009.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

But things gradually started to go wrong later on. He said things like, "A great man is born between heaven and earth, how can he live a life of mediocrity?" He also subtly revealed his desire to replace the Third Mizukage.

As Yangjie's speech became increasingly radical, the Whirlpool Clan members gradually grew terrified, their horrified gazes fixed on Yangjie, who stood in the center.

No way! They've only just started to enjoy a peaceful life! And with the current strength of the Uzumaki clan—just a handful of them—a rebellion wouldn't even cause a ripple; they'd be wiped out.

Moreover, the Uzumaki clan members are very satisfied with their current lives, which are much better than their past lives of wandering around the ninja world. At least their lives are safe.

Therefore, the Whirlpool Clan does not want to change, at least not now.

Looking at the terrified faces of his people, Yang Jie instinctively felt lost.

This isn't right. Shouldn't they be supporting me after my speech? Why are they looking at me like I'm a plague?

Did I do something wrong?

Uzumaki Yangjie was lost in confusion, but the faint appearance of the Mangekyou Sharingan in his eyes made him determined.

"I did nothing wrong. I will definitely revive the Uzumaki clan, and no one can stop me!"

Uzumaki Yangjie looked towards the Mizukage Building and muttered to himself, "A clan, a village, and a country are proof of the Uzumaki clan's strength. Since Kirigakure caused harm to Uzumaki, let them pay their debt properly!"

The Whirlpool Clan members were terrified by Whirlpool Yangjie's words, fearing that their hard-won good life would be taken away from them.

If they were driven away again, no ninja village would be willing to accept them. As for Konoha, the Uzumaki clan had never considered it.

Perhaps there was some hope at first, but later despair gradually set in.

Even though Konoha is currently recruiting members of the Uzumaki clan, they don't really believe it.

What were you doing all this time?!

So, the Uzumaki clan gritted their teeth and reported the matter to the Third Mizukage.

"Lord Mizukage, you have to believe us! This really has nothing to do with us. It's all just Uzumaki Yūki's idea!"

The Third Mizukage watched speechlessly as the Uzumaki clan members recounted Uzumaki Yangjie's wolfish ambitions, while Uehara Ishiguro, standing to the side, was also starting to lose his composure.

"Uehara, what do you think we should do about this?"

The Third Mizukage lowered his gaze slightly, turned his head to look at Uehara Stone, a hint of mockery in his eyes, and waited for Uehara Stone's answer.

"Lord Mizukage, the Uzumaki clan has just arrived in Kirigakure, and Uzumaki Yangjie has only recently been appointed as the acting clan head. At this time, we should demonstrate Kirigakure's tolerance towards clans with bloodline limits and refrain from rash actions."

Uehara Shi reluctantly spoke up for Uzumaki Yangjie, a piece that had given him a slight shock.

What's going on? Someone actually dares to openly proclaim that they're going to rebel!

Shouldn't this kind of thing be done secretly? Like a venomous snake, lurking in the shadows, ready to strike a fatal blow at any moment?

He even gave a speech, as if he was afraid no one would know he wanted to rebel!

Could it be caused by the illusion that Lord Danzo cast on Uzumaki Yūki?

I've never heard of Sharingan genjutsu that affects the brain.

"Alright, but we still need to punish Uzumaki Yoji. After all, this trend cannot be allowed to continue. Today Uzumaki Yoji dares to give a rebellious speech, and tomorrow he might dare to collude with an internal traitor to assassinate me."

The Third Mizukage's casual words sent a shiver down Uehara Ishi's spine. Fearing that something might be noticed, he immediately changed the subject.

"Then let Uzumaki Yosuke be the subject of the Heavenly Demon experiment. This is also the mercy of the Mizukage."

With a determined effort, Shang Yuanshi went straight for the top spot. As for whether the Whirlpool Yangjie could survive, that was up to luck.

He dared not let Yangjie from the Whirlpool run rampant any longer; if he was dead, so be it.

"Alright, then bring the Uzumaki Sun Mustard over. The powerful vitality of the Uzumaki clan has indeed given me some inspiration."

Upon hearing the Third Mizukage's words, Uehara Ishi breathed a sigh of relief and immediately got up to carry out the Third Mizukage's orders.

"Don't blame me, Yangjie. Blame yourself for rebelling and giving a grand speech. Weren't you courting death?!"
