Mizukage's Pokémon Ninja Scroll

Chapter 557 Fugaku Uchiha's Sincerity

Seeing that Yahiko looked like he was afraid she would change her mind, Tachibana shook her head, feeling both amused and exasperated.

"There's no need for that; as long as we can achieve a win-win situation, that's enough."

"However, Nagato still needs to join under a different identity. Even disregarding the Rinnegan, Nagato's mastery of the Five Elements Release Techniques is more than enough to deal with most ninjas."

It's unclear whether Yahiko heard what he said afterward.

Jianchuan Ju continued to discuss the follow-up plans with him before ending the call.

Meanwhile, Yahiko hurriedly went to communicate with Jiraiya, who was still waiting for a reply in Amegakure.

We hope that Konoha will also provide some support in this matter.

Seeing Nagato still immersed in joy, Tachibana shook her head and walked out of the conference room with a wry smile.

The two problems that have plagued Amegakure for so long, war and weather, seem to have found a solution today, which explains why Nagato is so excited.

The dawn of a new day? It's so pure, it's almost enviable.

Although I felt a bit emotional, the suggestions I gave were indeed made with the intention of helping Yahiko and the others.

However, Tachibana Kanagawa also knew that he was not as pure as the Akatsuki members, and ultimately he had his own purposes.

This time, the reason for pushing Amegakure to participate in the peacekeeping force was not just what Yahiko guessed.

Fog Shadow needs to gain more influence within the peacekeeping forces.

This is only one aspect.

The reason why Tachibana Kenkawa said he would teach Amegakure the "Great Sunny Day" technique was to "improve the environment of the base".

The reason is that when he openly revealed this ninjutsu, which is of great importance to the entire Land of Rain, even without exposing the secret cooperation between the two villages, it would be reasonable to explain why Amegakure would favor Kirigakure in its decision-making.

On the contrary, if Amegakure does nothing, it will be branded as ungrateful.

Of course, Tachibana Kenkawa trusted Yahiko's character and his relationship with the Akatsuki organization very much.

Therefore, the right to speak was not actually his primary objective.

What Jianchuan Tachibana values ​​more is that it opened the door for smaller ninja villages to participate in the decision-making among the five major ninja villages.

Jiraiya's suggestion was actually a reminder to Tachibana Kenkawa.

What Tachibana Kenkawa wanted was never to consolidate the rule of the five great ninja villages or to strengthen their power over the entire ninja world in order to maintain a superficial peace.

This significant elevation of Amegakure's status is actually a test of the other four families' ability to accept it.

How can Amegakure, which is not one of the Five Great Ninja Villages, be "on equal footing" with the Five Great Ninja Villages?

Amegakure was truly recognized as the 5.5 Great Ninja Village after Hanzo of the Salamander?

Regardless of how others in the ninja world ultimately view this, it undoubtedly weakens the influence of the five great ninja villages throughout the entire ninja world.

However, as long as Kirigakure can maintain its position as the commander-in-chief of the maintenance forces in the upcoming battles, it can completely offset this weakening.

That will happen then.

Hidden Mist Village > Other Four Major Ninja Villages > Hidden Rain Village > Other Minor Ninja Villages

This is the situation that Tachibana Kenkawa truly wanted to see.

So, although he said to Yahiko that Amegakure joining the maintenance forces was just a proposal.

But in reality, Tachibana Kenkawa will definitely do everything in her power to make this proposal a reality.

Whether it's coercion or bribery.

"So, Kisame, you better not mess things up for me!"

Having figured this out, Jianchuan Ju, who had already clarified his thoughts, didn't linger any longer.

After rushing to the office and discussing things with Elder Yuan, he dropped his work and went back to training Kisame Hoshigaki.

Yes, it's definitely not an excuse to slack off!

However, just as Tachibana Kenkawa was standing by the training ground, pointing out the little guys like Kabuto Saigyouji while watching Ran beat up Kisame Hoshigaki.

Suddenly, a chakra fluctuation emanated from the communication ring in his hand.

Tachibana looked at Uchiha Hikaru and Nagato, who were sitting cross-legged on the other side, with a puzzled expression.

I haven't given away many of the rings with the "Illusionary Body Technique".

The person who currently possesses the ring should all be within the village, so there's absolutely no need for them to contact me through the ring. Wait, how could I forget about him?

Gently patting her forehead, Tachibana Kanakawa decisively answered the call.

The next moment, a figure silently appeared before Jianchuan Ju.

"Lord Jianchuan, everything is ready on my end."

Looking at the figure in front of him, Tachibana Kanagawa asked in surprise.

"You're all ready already? Chief Fugaku's actions are certainly swift and efficient."

Indeed, the person currently communicating with Tachibana Uchiha through the "Illusionary Body Technique" is none other than Fugaku Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan.

It's funny, really.

After the Nine-Tails' night, Tachibana Kenkawa originally sent someone to deliver a communication ring to Fugaku Uchiha, but he only did so casually.

In any case, the initiative is in her own hands. Whether she communicates or not, or does not use projection to hide her identity during communication, Jianchuan Ju can do it easily.

In Tachibana's mind, unless the Uchiha clan was driven to the brink of extinction, given Fugaku's indecisive nature, they would never take the initiative to contact this mysterious person of unknown origin.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after giving away the ring, Fugaku Uchiha contacted him.

Moreover, without choosing to project, he revealed his identity simply by communicating through telepathy.

What's even more outrageous is that Fugaku Uchiha didn't waste any words at all; he simply bowed down and declared that he wanted to join Kirigakure.

It can't even be said that he has pledged allegiance to Kirigakure; he acts entirely as a retainer of the Kenkawa Tachibana clan, as if he would drag the entire Uchiha clan to follow him to the death even if Kenkawa Tachibana wasn't the Mizukage.

This made Jianchuan Ju think that there might be some kind of conspiracy or scheme involved.

Fortunately, Fugaku Uchiha's so-called defection was sincere, and Tachibana Kenkawa was confident that he had the strength to not be afraid of any ulterior motives from the Uchiha clan.

So he didn't bother to figure out why Fugaku Uchiha was so decisive.

As for what kind of sincerity Fugaku Uchiha had...:

"Yes, Lord Jianchuan! I have arranged reasonable reasons for the deaths of one Jonin, five promising young Chunin, and seven children under the age of five. You can send someone to bring them to Kirigakure at any time."

"So many?" Jianchuan Ju asked, somewhat surprised.

"Rest assured, my lord, all thirteen of them have been imbued with secret spells, and they have all been carefully selected. There will be absolutely no issues with their character or loyalty."

"In addition... my two sons are among these seven children. I hope Lord Jianchuan can take good care of them."

Yes, this is Fugaku Uchiha's sincerity.
