Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 290 I'll Take Care of Everything

"Yes!" xN

The other members of the ANBU immediately accepted the order, having just witnessed Jianchuan Ju easily defeat the renowned Ninja Dark.

In addition, given Jianchuan Ju's past ruthless style in the Anbu, where he would cut off the hands of anyone who caused trouble, no one dared to provoke Jianchuan Ju at this time.

Okay, there was one person whose answer differed from the others in the Dark Division.

Just as everyone was obediently accepting their orders and preparing to act, a somewhat discordant voice stammered.

"Um, Lord Jianchuan, this is my home."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attention to this side.

Tachibana Kanagawa glanced at the other person, who was the ANBU member who had been stunned and allowed Danzo Shimura to escape.

Even without the other party removing their mask, Tachibana Kanagawa could sense the embarrassment on the ANBU member's face, an expression that made him wish he could disappear into the ground.

He said, somewhat speechless.

"Alright then, the fight was caused by your mistake, so forget about compensation. As for your punishment..."

"The losses to the Water Shadow Building will be on your shoulders. You can go and pay Elder Yuan yourself later."

After saying that, Jianchuan Ju ignored the others, took her little frog, jumped out through the big hole in the roof, and returned to the reception room.

After Tachibana Kenkawa left, the ANBU member who made the mistake actually breathed a sigh of relief.

Although a piece of the top of the Mizukage building was sliced ​​off by Shimura Danzo's Wind Release technique, and the reception room was also damaged, the amount involved must have been considerable. However, to replace punishment with monetary loss is actually quite lenient for an Anbu ninja.

Meanwhile, the others did not object at all to Tachibana Kenkawa directly ordering the Anbu and imposing punishments, and obediently carried out the orders, binding Shimura Danzo.

As soon as Jianchuan Ju returned to the reception room, she found that Elder Yuanshi and Qing were both standing still.

"Were they waiting for me?"

Jianchuan Ju had previously thought that Elder Yuan would hide in another room first, since if it weren't for Lan Zai's kick, the 'vacuum wave' that slashed into this room would have caused some casualties.

"Truly a veteran who has seen it all."

However, Tachibana Kenkawa did not dwell on this small matter too much.

None of the three paid any attention to Shimura Danzo and the two Root members who were about to be imprisoned. Since Konoha had made the first move, it seemed only natural for Kirigakure to detain the envoy.

The three of them walked together to the Water Shadow's office. After Elder Yuanshi sat down in his seat, Tachibana Kanakawa spoke.

"The paper that Shimura Danzo secretly left behind has Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God mark on it."

Neither Elder Yuan nor Qing were too surprised by this. As an elder of Kirigakure and the current frontline commander, they were obviously aware of such basic information.

However, when Tachibana Namikaze revealed that Minato Namikaze possessed a ninjutsu called "Flying Thunder God Guided Lightning," which could transmit objects, even attacks like Tailed Beast Balls, to the Flying Thunder God mark, the expressions of the two immediately turned quite ugly.

Needless to say, a terrifying attack like a Tailed Beast Ball would be enough to give Kirigakure a headache if Minato Namikaze just threw over a box of explosive tags.

Moreover, according to Jianchuan Ju, Minato Namikaze later created a simplified version of the "Flying Thunder God Formation". Although it required multiple people to use and a long preparation time, the teleportation distance was ridiculously long.

Upon hearing this, Elder Yuan immediately gave orders to the two secret agents.

"Dispatch all Anbu members not on missions, and coordinate with the Sensory Team! Thoroughly search every place those Konoha thugs visited after entering the village, leaving no stone unturned!"

"Yes!" x2

When Tachibana Kenkawa was guarding the Mizukage Building in the Anbu, she often eavesdropped on others. The others were no exception. These two Anbu members knew the seriousness of the matter and immediately obeyed their orders and left.

Using such a clumsy method to investigate was a last resort. As the leader of Root, Shimura Danzo possessed a great deal of core information about Konoha, and his brain must have been protected by countless seals.

Getting accurate information from them is incredibly difficult.

"Those bastards from Konoha!"

Elder Yuan first cursed himself in anger before looking at Jianchuan Ju.

"Tachibana, what are you going to do with Danzo?"

Jianchuan Ju didn't hesitate about this issue. He had considered it before taking action, otherwise he and Lanzai wouldn't have tacitly refrained from going all out against Danzo.

"Shimura Danzo has significant personality flaws, and he holds a high position in Konoha. Letting him go back might not be a good thing for Konoha."

"My suggestion is to wait until this war is over, and regardless of who wins or loses, return it to Konoha as a bargaining chip."

Although Kirigakure was mentally prepared for a major battle with Konoha, no one could guarantee victory against the largest village in the ninja world.

Even the once invincible Thunder-Earth Alliance failed to completely defeat Konoha.

It's worth noting that Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was never used from beginning to end.

However, Konoha could not easily give up a high-ranking official like Danzo. With such a bargaining chip, Kirigakure would have the upper hand at the negotiating table, regardless of the final outcome.

However, after thinking for a moment, Jianchuan Ju added.

"Danzo is a vengeful person. After this incident, his hatred for Kirigakure must be considerable. We must also be careful."

Elder Yuan Shi also agreed with this.

"Furthermore, since Konoha has disrupted the peace talks first, our attack on Konoha this time will be even more justified. I will report this matter directly to the Daimyo and ask him to condemn the Land of Fire and send a message to all the other ninja villages."

"Konoha's actions under the guise of negotiations will inevitably arouse the vigilance and resentment of other ninja villages, which will greatly benefit our upcoming war and negotiations."

There was no real evidence to suggest that Konoha had bewitched Yagura. Halfway through the discussion, Kirigakure suddenly started attacking Konoha again, which may make other ninja villages more wary of future interactions with Kirigakure.

Now, Konoha has handed over its own weakness, giving Kirigakure a legitimate reason to attack.

Regardless of whether Konoha truly intended to do this, or whether Minato Namikaze would cooperate with Danzo's underhanded tactics, what's done is done.

At least the other ninja villages don't want a Tailed Beast Ball to suddenly appear in their hometown one day.

Previously, when Tachibana and others dropped "Zero," the Hidden Cloud Village had to defend against it with great care. Now, Konoha's method of teleporting bombs is much harder to prevent than dropping them from the air.

Even the Sand Village, an ally of Konoha, might have to be more vigilant.

However, Qing hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"I have no objection to issuing the notification, but should we delay it a little?"

In fact, Ao was mainly unsure whether he could master the use of the Three-Tails' power in a short period of time, fearing that if Konoha were to prepare too early, it would affect the outcome of the war.

Jianchuan Ju, who knew Qing well, also realized what her teacher was worried about and offered words of comfort.

"Teacher Qing, the purpose of this battle with Konoha is to demonstrate the power of Kirigakure. Therefore, we could not have chosen to launch a sneak attack, making Konoha think that they lost due to carelessness, and thus turning the battle into a protracted war."

"What we need is to let Konoha prepare, and then win a fair and square victory!"

"So, Ao-sensei, you can rest assured and prepare for tomorrow's Tailed Beast sealing."

"I'll take care of everything else!"

Just wanted to give you an update. I've been working hard on writing these past two days and have managed to save up one chapter.

Hehe, but let me hold off for now, and release it all at once later when the story needs to be connected.

P.S.: I'd like to recommend a book by a pro member in our group!
