If they lose two tailed beasts, the weakened Kirigakure will likely be completely wiped out by the enemy.
Most importantly, due to the death of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, the Three-Tails, Isobu, has entered a long period of resurrection, and Kirigakure has yet to gather any information about Isobu's resurrection.
As for Utakata, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, he had already defected during the Blood Mist period. Although the Anbu of Kirigakure had a general grasp of his whereabouts, they had been allowed to act freely due to insufficient manpower.
Not to mention that Kirigakure would never hand over two tailed beasts, even if they wanted to, they couldn't do it right now.
Just then, the sound of wind breaking rang out one after another, and groups of masked Mist Ninja Anbu rushed in from afar, giving the Mist Ninja present renewed hope.
Eight Mist Ninja Anbu members stepped out from the crowd and, with Hyuga Zechen's position as the center, occupied different positions, forming a peculiar formation.
"Barrier Ninjutsu: Water Prison Wall Technique!"
The eight ANBU members shouted in unison, and eight shimmering water walls rose simultaneously, forming a huge octagonal water prison that trapped Hyuga Zechen within the barrier. Furthermore, deep blue chains materialized and swiftly wrapped around Hyuga Zechen's hands, legs, and waist, tightening them to fix him immobile within the barrier.
Blue water rose from the ground and began to fill the barrier, its purpose being to prevent enemies from breathing air and thus suffocate them to death.
This is a barrier ninjutsu unique to Kirigakure, a barrier version of the Water Prison Technique, which requires multiple people to perform.
"Barrier ninjutsu, huh? Not bad. It's a pity you seem to have forgotten that space-time ninjutsu ignores all barriers."
Before he could finish speaking, Hinata Zechen vanished suddenly before everyone's eyes, leaving behind only an empty barrier.
"Chase after them!"
The fact that the big fish that had been caught in the net could escape in this way made Mei Terumi, whose smile had already frozen before it could bloom, somewhat exasperated, and she shouted loudly.
However, few of the many Mist Ninja present responded; the vast majority remained standing still.
The opponent has mastered space-time ninjutsu, so tracking is completely useless.
Most importantly, none of the sensory ninjas present could detect the enemy's chakra, making it difficult to determine which direction to pursue.
All eyes of the Mist Ninja were on Mei Terumi, hoping that this Mizukage could take the lead.
Just then, a blue flame shot into the sky, dispelling the darkness of Kirigakure.
"Damn it, the enemy has gone to the Mizukage Building!"
Mei Terumi's face paled as she immediately recognized that the emergency signal was coming from the location of the Mizukage Building.
However, it was clearly too late.
Before attacking Ao, Hyuga Zetsu had left a Flying Thunder God seal in a hidden location outside the Mizukage Building. After escaping from the barrier, Hyuga Zetsu immediately rushed into the Mizukage Building.
Because Hyuga Zechen caused such a huge commotion, the ANBU members who were originally stationed at the Mizukage Building all went to provide support, leaving only a small squad on duty, and they were scattered in different locations.
When the ANBU guarding the Mizukage's office door saw Hyuga Sawatatsu, his gaze was immediately drawn to the tomoe spinning in his Sharingan, and he collapsed to the ground.
A green spirit orb burrowed into the body of the Dark Side, allowing Hyuga Zechen to peruse all of their memories.
The records left behind by the Kaguya clan are here!
Soon, having already emptied the bookshelf he needed, Hyuga Zechen conjured a fireball in his palm and threw it onto the bookshelf in front of him.
The fire spread rapidly, burning all the documents inside the room.
No one would notice that all the information related to the Kaguya clan had disappeared.
By the time Mei Terumi arrived, the fire had already spread throughout the Mizukage Building.
"Mizukage, don't let the enemy lead you by the nose."
Just then, an old man in a yellow robe walked out from the crowd. His head was completely bald, and he had even lost all his teeth. He held a strangely shaped snake-like wooden staff and walked step by step to Mei Terumi.
"Elder Yuan, what brings you here?"
Upon seeing the old man appear, Terumi Mei quickly stepped forward and reached out to help him up.
Although Mei Terumi has taken over as the Fifth Mizukage, all affairs of the entire Kirigakure village are managed by the current Genji, who possesses power equal to that of the Mizukage.
Compared to Mei Terumi, the Kirigakure ninja present were more led by Genji.
Therefore, upon seeing the appearance of the Master, the restless hearts of the people immediately calmed down.
Chapter 89 Obito's existential crisis
Without needing to be ordered, the Mist Ninja present clasped their hands together, and jets of water shot into the sky, extinguishing the raging fire in the Mizukage Building.
"Elder Yuanshi, you were already by Lord Bailian's side when he founded Kirigakure, and you made great contributions to the village. You must have met Uchiha Madara. In your judgment, could that mysterious masked man really be Uchiha Madara?"
In front of Genji, Terumi Mei abandoned her usual mature womanly style and instead acted like a granddaughter nestled against an old man, showing a hint of filial piety.
Mei Terumi was able to remain unharmed during the Bloodline Limit because of the protection of her master.
"Uchiha Madara, a legendary figure in the ninja world, is unmatched by any other ninja except for the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama. How could such a person possibly wear a mask and conceal his true face?"
As a ninja from the same era as the First Mizukage, Byakuren, Genji's body still trembled from time to time even when he was holding a wooden staff, and his speaking speed was astonishingly slow.
"So someone really was impersonating Uchiha Madara?"
Mei Terumi's face showed a thoughtful expression as she searched her mind for information on renowned ninjas in the ninja world, trying to find clues about the masked man's identity.
"The Hidden Leaf Village of the Land of Fire once sent us some intelligence. I wonder if you remember it."
Before Zhao Mei could come up with a conclusion, Yuan Shi spoke up again.
"intelligence?"
Mei Terumi blinked rapidly, momentarily losing track of Genji's rhythm.
"Konoha says that a very dangerous organization called Akatsuki has recently emerged in the ninja world and is eyeing the Jinchuriki of various villages."
Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi's eyes lit up, and she immediately retrieved the relevant information from her mind.
It is said that the Akatsuki organization has gathered a total of ten S-rank rogue ninjas, including former Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, such as Juzo Biwa and Kisame Hoshigaki, who seem to have joined the organization.
The death of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, is inextricably linked to the Akatsuki organization. Whether it was the masked man who controlled Yagura Karatachi with genjutsu, or Yagura Karatachi's encounter with Juzo Biwa and his mysterious companion outside Kirigakure after the genjutsu was broken, they were all Akatsuki members wearing black cloaks with red cloud patterns.
Although they successfully killed Juzo Biwa, Yagura Karatachi was also severely burned by an extremely powerful fire jutsu and eventually died from his injuries. This debt should obviously be attributed to Akatsuki.
So, is the information about Akatsuki provided by Konoha true?
"Mei Terumi, do you know why I haven't completely let go and handed the village over to you yet?"
Yuan Shi had already guessed seven or eight parts of Terumi Mei's thoughts by observing the changes in her expression.
"Whether the masked man who just appeared is the same person who controlled the Fourth Hokage, or whether he really comes from the Akatsuki organization, is still unknown. Being too trusting of others will prevent one from becoming a qualified Mizukage."
Having said that, Yuan Shi ignored Terumi Mei and walked away, trembling with each step, leaning on his snake staff.
-----------------
boom!
A loud bang came from the Hokage's office, alerting the nearby Anbu.
But most people just glance at it and then ignore it.
Even after becoming the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade's fiery temper remained unchanged. Every one or two days, the Hokage's desk needed to be replaced, which everyone had long since become accustomed to.
"So, you're the one who turned the entire Hidden Mist Village upside down?"
Tsunade's eyes were blazing with fury as she stared intently at Hyuga Zetsu. The desk in front of her had been shattered into pieces by her superhuman strength, scattering the documents all over the floor.
"Don't worry, no matter how much Kirigakure investigates, all the evidence will point to Akatsuki."
Faced with Tsunade's accusations, Hyuga Zechen adopted a defiant attitude, holding a large stack of information about the Kaguya clan that he had looted from Kirigakure.
Disguised as ninja from other villages, they go around sowing discord and stirring up trouble – this was originally Root's mission.
To some extent, after Hyuga Zetsu's actions, the possibility of Kirigakure taking advantage of Konoha's weakened state following the collapse plan to plunder it is now virtually zero. This is undoubtedly extremely advantageous for Konoha at present.
"Leave the documents here, then get out. I don't want to see you again for three days!"
Tsunade pointed towards the gate, her ample bosom trembling with anger.
Hinata Zechen's lips twitched, and he immediately put down the documents in his hand, turned around and left without saying a word.
"That bastard!"
Still not satisfied, Tsunade took a step forward and stomped the desk into countless pieces before finally venting her anger. She then reached for the documents left behind by Hyuga Zechen.
With so much data, how long will it take to see it all?
Perhaps we should observe the female genin that Kakashi recommended and see if she has the potential to become a medical ninja. If she is as excellent as Kakashi says, perhaps we could consider taking her as a disciple?
-----------------
The Land of Rain is shrouded in rain all year round, as if even the heavens are weeping for this war-torn country.
"Mr. Madara, why did you cause such a commotion in Kirigakure without our prior knowledge? Zero clearly instructed that for the next three years, all members of the organization must keep a low profile and collect enough money for the organization's operation, instead of becoming the target of a joint attack by the five great ninja villages!"
Inside a hall of the Akatsuki organization, Konan's words were quite harsh, directly targeting Uchiha Obito on the other side.
I don't understand what you're talking about.
Wearing a black and orange striped single-eyed mask, Obito Uchiha's only exposed eye gleamed, and for a moment he was suppressed by Konan's aura.
"Absolutely brilliant!"
With a low shout from Pain, a pitcher plant slowly rose from the ground, its green leaves parting to reveal the black and white Zetsu.
One pair of hands, as black as ink and as white as snow, were pressed against the ground simultaneously. Black Zetsu's pale yellow pupils turned crimson, exactly the same crimson as the Sharingan.
The next moment, images were projected onto the walls of the hall, depicting the scene of Hyuga Zetsu's rampage in Kirigakure.
This is Black Zetsu's ability: first, through mental fusion, he acquires the memories in the mind of the possessed ninja, then he records the scenes in the memories using his eye technique, and then replays them in front of others.
When Obito used genjutsu to control Yagura Karatachi, Zetsu was also one of the accomplices. Even after the genjutsu was broken and the Akatsuki had to abandon their plans in Kirigakure, a considerable number of White Zetsu remained secretly in Kirigakure.
Therefore, Zetsu received the information from Kirigakure immediately.
Black Zetsu knew that the masked man who appeared in Kirigakure was not Obito Uchiha, so he immediately rushed to Kirigakure and used mental fusion to reconstruct the complete process of the incident from the memories of different Kirigakure ninja.
His masterful space-time ninjutsu allowed him to control the Kirigakure ANBU with genjutsu with just a glance...
Looking at the masked man in the picture, Obito's face was ashen. If he wasn't sure that his memories were correct, even he would have doubted that the masked man who caused a ruckus in Kirigakure was himself.
Why would someone impersonating me know so much about me?
Could it be that my identity has already been revealed?
As the image froze, Obito Uchiha was still in a daze, not yet recovered.
