Starting with the Uchiha clan, they began cultivating demonic arts.

Chapter 150 Mei Terumi, the Fourth Mizukage

"Whoa!"

A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, and Yagura was sent flying backward, crashing directly into the barrier in the distance before falling to the ground.

"Damn it... the difference in physical abilities is too great... she's just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, yet her reaction speed and pure physical strength are so much stronger than mine!"

"Give up, Yagura!"

Mei Terumi walked over with confident strides, while Yagura looked disheveled. The arm that had been holding the iron rod was now covered in festering, eroded skin and muscles. At the same time, she had been kicked in the chest, breaking two of his ribs.

After the Water Mirror Technique proved ineffective, Yagura had no choice but to try to deal with Mei Terumi by using a clash of ninjutsu and Coral Palm. Unfortunately, in terms of pure water jutsu, the gap between Yagura and Mei Terumi was simply too great.

It's obvious that Yagura's Water Release technique is closer to a secret art, while Mei Terumi's bloodline limit training is purely about chakra nature and form transformation. In a clash of ninjutsu, Yagura would be no match for Mei Terumi.

Driven to his limit, Yagura had no choice but to risk getting close, resulting in Mei Terumi's acid mist corroding his weapon-wielding hand into countless holes. Fortunately, Mei Terumi used Boiling Release acid mist instead of Lava Release acid liquid, otherwise Yagura's hand would probably have been completely melted.

Even though he ultimately paid the price of losing an arm, Yagura got close to Mei Terumi, but because his reflexes couldn't keep up with her speed, he was kicked and had two bones broken.

In reality, Yagura was only able to get close to Mei Terumi because Mei Terumi showed mercy and didn't intend to kill him outright. Otherwise, given the terrifying corrosiveness of Lava Release and Boil Release, coupled with Mei Terumi's immunity to his ninjutsu, if she had simply covered herself with a layer of Boil Release mist, Yagura would have had no chance of getting close to her.

"Damn it, I don't want to give up like this..."

Yagura tried to stand up, but the movement aggravated his broken ribs, causing a sharp pain in his chest, and he coughed up blood.

With his ribs broken, the injuries to his internal organs were naturally severe. Based on the sensation in his chest, Yagura could even clearly feel that one of his ribs had pierced into his internal organs.

If he hadn't received immediate medical attention, even with his strong vitality as a ninja, he would likely have died.

Thinking of this, no matter how unwilling Yagura was, he could only lower his head helplessly and say:

"You win, Mei Terumi. The title of Fourth Mizukage is yours!"

Upon hearing these words, Yagura seemed to have had his spine broken, looking utterly lifeless.

As the outcome of the battle became clear, the barrier ninjas who had been guarding the outer perimeter opened the barrier. At this moment, Genji, who had been hiding on the outer perimeter, slowly walked towards Terumi Mei.

"I never expected... Although I had considered that Mei Terumi might become the Mizukage, I never imagined that you could defeat Yagura at such a young age."

"You even fooled me... I didn't expect you to synthesize a second bloodline limit so quickly!"

As Mei Terumi's half-teacher, Yuan Shi knew that Mei Terumi had mastered the Boil Release Kekkei Genkai, and also knew that Mei Terumi had been working towards synthesizing a second Kekkei Genkai. However, Mei Terumi's current performance was too amazing, and it didn't seem like the result of such a short time.

He thought that the original Mei Terumi had held back even in front of him, and had already fused with a second bloodline limit!

However, Mei Terumi had not held back at all; her strength had only increased greatly because of her dual cultivation with Tou Uchiha.

Regardless of how Mei Terumi acquired her strength, after defeating Yagura, she was already the undisputed Fourth Mizukage!

……

"Ah... being the Mizukage isn't such an easy thing after all!"

In the Mizukage's office, Mei Terumi flung her Mizukage hat off, and it flew in an arc before landing right on a hook on the wall. She stretched lazily, sat down in her chair, and crossed her legs.

"It's definitely not that simple, which is why I prefer to be the mastermind behind the scenes rather than the boss!"

With a soft laugh, Uchiha Tou appeared in the Mizukage's office. Mei Terumi's face immediately lit up with bright joy, and she happily rushed towards Uchiha Tou:

"Hiyu, how did I do this time? I took care of Yagura with ease!"

Although Mei Terumi's strength had improved so rapidly, it was all thanks to Tou Uchiha's help. However, Tou Uchiha naturally wouldn't say such a discouraging thing at this moment. He reached out and hugged Mei Terumi, who was rushing towards him, and gently smoothed her hair.

"His performance was quite good. He rightfully took the position of the Fourth Mizukage without leaving any future troubles."

"Next, I will help you deal with the Daimyo of the Land of Water and promote chakra training methods throughout the Land of Water, making this Land of Water my medicinal garden. All you need to do then is cooperate."

Mei Terumi, who was in Touya Uchiha's arms, nodded after hearing his words, but then frowned slightly:

"The Hidden Mist Village is quite different from other ninja villages. After so many years of the Blood Mist Policy, even the Mizukage doesn't have absolute authority in this village."

"Especially the bloodline clans in the village, which have grown very strong in recent years, after all, all three Mizukage are ninjas from bloodline clans."

"So even if I become the Mizukage, I can't really mobilize the entire power of Kirigakure. Some ordinary things are fine, but for something as earth-shattering as this, it's hard to say whether those clan ninjas are on my side... no, to be precise, those clan ninjas will definitely outwardly comply but inwardly defy me and cause trouble!"

After the chakra training method is made public, the interests of ninja clans will naturally be harmed, just as the rights of clan ninjas were compressed after the rise of commoner ninjas.

Although most of the commoners in the Land of Water are far from being described as having mediocre talent, and would be more accurately described as having rotten wood, as long as the base number is large, there will naturally be no shortage of geniuses.

At that time, those ordinary ninja clans might not be able to compete with these commoner ninjas who have been selected through the fierce competition!

"It doesn't matter... Other countries are starting to implement universal chakra policies, which will naturally force those clan ninjas to open up, just like the establishment of the Ninja Academy, which was also forced into it, right?"

Uchiha Touya reached his hand inside Mei Terumi's clothes, a smile playing on his lips, and said nonchalantly.

Before the establishment of ninja villages, there was no such thing as commoner ninjas. At that time, the entire ninja world consisted almost entirely of clan ninjas. Occasionally, there were some roaming ninjas without clan influence, but they were just low-level rogue ninjas.

However, after Konoha began reforming its ninja academy, a large number of civilian ninjas quickly emerged. In order to counter Konoha's endless stream of cannon fodder and the geniuses emerging from among them, other ninja villages had no choice but to open their doors and recruit a large number of civilians for ninja education.

Establishing a ninja academy would only reduce the power of clan ninjas, but if Konoha were to develop, then all ninja clans in other countries would be in danger of extinction!

The same applies now. When the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind both begin promoting universal chakra training, the other three countries only have two choices: either go all out to destroy the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind, or imitate them and also launch universal chakra training.

Otherwise, in just five or six years, the combat power of the two sides will be significantly different, and in just ten years, the other two major powers will be able to destroy the remaining three major powers on their own!

In this situation, even if the ninja clans of Kirigakure oppose it, it won't make much difference; the future will inevitably be an era where everyone trains in chakra.

The Bloodline Clan is alright, as their abilities come from their own bloodline, so they are not too badly affected. The Mystic Clan is also slightly better off. Through generations of cultivation and improvement, the Mystic Clan's secret techniques and their own bloodline have largely merged, becoming the foundation of their existence.

Those who are truly unlucky are the ninja clans that don't have any special characteristics. For example, the Sarutobi clan, which is "proficient in fire release," is one of the main characters that will be swept away by the tide of the times.

Mei Terumi gave a soft snort, reaching out to cover Uchiha Tou's large hand that was misbehaving inside her clothes, giving him a seductive look:

"If it's really as you say, then I'm confident in pushing forward the universal chakra plan. However, this would greatly impact Kirigakure."

"You should know that the Land of Water is an archipelago. Although Kirigakure is the strongest ninja force in the Land of Water, there are still many ninja families and forces on other islands that do not belong to or obey Kirigakure's jurisdiction."

"Once the Universal Chakra Plan is implemented, those ninja clans and forces won't just stand by and watch. The most likely scenario is that all the talented commoner ninjas born on other islands will be recruited by those ninja forces!"

"Tsk, what a small temple with a lot of demons, a shallow pond with many turtles... Why does your Kirigakure village have so many troubles, just like Sunagakure?"

Uchiha Touyu said somewhat unhappily, "These two bottom-ranked ninja villages are really quite similar. Because of the obstacles of the desert terrain, the Land of Wind is also full of mountains and various small forces. It is precisely because of this that the Daimyo of the Land of Wind has the ability to control the Sand Village's base."

Of course, with the help of Uchiha Hiyu, the mountains and hills of the Land of Wind were almost completely leveled and eventually became nourishment in the Chaos Treasure Box.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Hiyu gently squeezed the bean in his hand, making Terumi Mei's whole body go limp. Only then did he pull his hand out and take out a sealing scroll.

Once the scroll is opened, there is a black box inside with two ancient traditional Chinese characters written on it: 混元 (Hun Yuan).

This was one of the four Chaos Treasure Boxes that Uchiha Hiyu had crafted. He pointed and directly channeled a portion of his spiritual power into the Chaos Treasure Box.

This is another method of controlling the Hunyuan Treasure Box discovered by Uchiha Hiyu. To be precise, it is similar to the Shadow Clone Technique in the Naruto world. It is close to a kind of mental clone, which has no offensive or defensive capabilities. Its only function is to control the Hunyuan Treasure Box.

After all, to obtain the black energy, Uchiha Touyu had to kill someone himself. In the past, Uchiha Touyu used the clone technique to operate the Chaos Treasure Box, so this could be considered as Uchiha Touyu personally taking action.

However, later on, Uchiha Touyu found the transmitted memories too troublesome, so he developed this mental clone technique. He had already tried it, and as long as someone died in the Hunyuan Treasure Box that contained his mental imprint, it was considered that he had killed them.

Moreover, after acquiring the spiritual imprint, the Hunyuan Treasure Box is no longer a taboo object that cannot be touched by others. As long as it is obtained with one's consent, the Hunyuan Treasure Box can be given to other ninjas for use.

At that moment, Uchiha Hiyu handed the Chaos Treasure Box to Terumi Mei. Terumi Mei was stunned for a moment, then reached out and took the Chaos Treasure Box, examined it carefully, and asked:

"Is this box some kind of powerful ninja tool? What do those two characters on it mean? It looks quite old."

The script in the Naruto world is Japanese, which originally developed from Chinese and even retains some Chinese characters. Although Mei Terumi cannot recognize the traditional Chinese characters "混元", she can see that the script structure belongs to the same system as the script she currently knows.

"This box is called the Hunyuan Treasure Box, and the two characters are Hunyuan. Hunyuan means the primordial energy before it was divided, a state of chaos and unity, the beginning of primordial energy!"

"That refers to an extremely ancient and primitive form of energy. The energy in the treasure box can directly transform a living person into an absorbable elixir—the kind of pill I gave you!"

Upon hearing this, Terumi Mei was immediately taken aback, a glint of light flashing in her eyes as she gripped the Chaos Treasure Box tightly in her hand.

"This... this kind of treasure, Feiyu, are you going to give it to me?"

Mei Terumi had no reservations about the cruelty of the Hunyuan Treasure Box. Knowing the effects of the Qi and Blood Pill, she considered the Hunyuan Treasure Box to be the number one treasure in the entire ninja world!

Although this is close to indirect cannibalism, in the cruel ninja world, it's really not a big deal.

Let alone refining pills through the Hunyuan Treasure Box, if eating a living person could increase chakra by even a little bit, then there would be a ton of ninjas in the entire Naruto world willing to eat people!

"Don't worry, there are four Hunyuan Treasure Boxes in total. I've already given away two of them. Besides, I also have the crafting method for Hunyuan Treasure Boxes. If necessary, I can just make a few more."

Hearing this, Mei Terumi finally felt relieved and gripped the Chaos Treasure Box tightly. Seeing Mei Terumi's cautious manner, Uchiha Tou chuckled:

"Don't worry, the Hunyuan Treasure Box has my spiritual imprint. Only those I allow can touch it. If anyone else touches the Hunyuan Treasure Box, they will be completely drained by it."
