"I understand, Lady Tsunade." Uchiha Mikoto no longer hesitated and walked towards the Mizukage. Due to the giant vines, the Mizukage was just at the same level as Mikoto's head.
Seto Chihiro looked at Tsunade's frowned brows and clenched fists and knew that her teacher was also testing the Uchiha clan's control over the tailed beasts. Since she was planning to become Hokage, she needed to know how the Uchiha clan controlled the tailed beasts.
Uchiha Mikoto closed her eyes with mixed feelings. When she opened her eyes again, she revealed a pair of very red eyes. Three black magatama like tadpoles appeared in her eyes. After propping open the Mizukage's eyes with both hands, she was ready to release the illusion.
On the night of the Nine-Tails seven years ago, Mikoto was reluctant to use the Mangekyō to control the Three-Tails, but it was the commander's order and she had to carry it out.
The magatama began to rotate in the eyes, and the chakra slowly penetrated into the body of the water shadow...
After sensing the chakra in the Mizukage's body, Mikoto's face suddenly changed. She felt that both the chakra of the tailed beasts and the chakra of the Mizukage himself were running in a strange order.
For a moment, Mikoto's mood became extremely complicated. Familiar with illusions, she knew in an instant that the water shadow in front of her had been controlled by an illusion.
What should I do? Should I tell Lady Tsunade? If I tell her, what if she thinks it was my illusion? If I don't tell her, others will find out sooner or later...
She felt that this was a complete trap. The only thing in the ninja world that could control the tailed beasts as summoning beasts was the Sharingan. Whether it was said or not, it meant that it was inseparable from the Uchiha clan...
Could it be true that the Uchiha clan was wiped out by the village in rebellion?
Is there really no other way out for the Uchiha?
No, I can still take Sasuke and these children away. At least I can't let the hope of the Uchiha clan be completely destroyed in the hands of Konoha...
That's right, I want to hide the truth, I want to escape from Konoha, I want Sasuke and the others to survive successfully, survive...
Thinking of this, Mikoto's Sharingan began to spin wildly, and the three magatama opened like ink dropped into clear water, and began to connect...
Seto Chihiro was still thinking about how to lure Obito out, but suddenly she felt a cold chakra rising from Uchiha Mikoto: "Captain Mikoto? Captain Mikoto?"
"I...what's wrong with me?" The voice reawakened Mikoto's consciousness. She shook her head. The shaking feeling from her arms made her feel a little unreal. The three-magatama Sharingan in her eyes changed and returned to the form of three-magatama.
Seto Chihiro looked at Uchiha Mikoto suspiciously. Ever since Captain Mikoto in front of her pried open Yagura's eyes, she has been standing there in a daze.
Although it was very faint, he clearly felt that Mikoto's temperament was slowly changing. A cold temperament slowly emerged, which was completely inconsistent with Mikoto's usual gentle temperament.
"Mikoto-jounin, you just froze there after opening Yagura's eyes, don't you remember?"
Tsunade also looked at Mikoto with a serious expression. She originally wanted to test whether Uchiha Three Magatama's Sharingan could control the Jinchūriki, but she didn't expect Mikoto to just stand there in a daze.
Mikoto was stunned again, the memory from just now resurfacing in her mind like a receding tide.
Why do I have such thoughts? Lady Tsunade clearly wants the Uchiha clan to reconcile with the village, and is also helping the Uchiha clan and taking good care of them! Now that Lady Tsunade knows about this, wouldn’t it be a good opportunity to explain the incident of the Nine-Tails Night 7 years ago?
Mikoto was very confused. Why did she have such thoughts of defection just now? Why did that happen?
"Is it because Yagura was already under the illusion?"
Seto Chihiro stepped forward, ignoring the confused and shocked looks of the two people behind him: "I didn't expect this illusion to be so powerful that it could even confuse Captain Mikoto who has the three-magatama Sharingan."
Chapter 50: Goji Yagura
"what?!"
"How do you know that this Mizukage has been controlled by an illusion?"
Two voices sounded at the same time behind Seto Chihiro, with surprise in their tone undisguised.
Chihiro's face also showed a look of shock at the right time: "What? Teacher Tsunade and Captain Mikoto, don't you know that he has been controlled by the illusion?"
"..."
"..."
Tsunade crossed her arms and after a brief moment of contemplation, she glanced at Uchiha Mikoto beside her, walked up and knocked Seto Chihiro on the head: "Boy, how can I know if you don't tell me? And do you know that your acting skills are very poor? From the looks of you, it seems that you already knew that the Mizukage was controlled by the illusion, and what do you mean by Mikoto being deceived?"
A trace of disbelief and gratitude flashed across Uchiha Mikoto's face. If she said that the Mizukage was controlled, Lady Tsunade might not believe it. But as long as it was Chihiro who said it, Lady Tsunade would most likely believe it?
"Slug-sama informed us earlier that the Mizukage has entered the state of half-tailed beast transformation. When I placed the teacher on the tree trunk and restrained him alone, I found that Yagura's state was very strange. He was very aggressive towards you, the teacher."
"Me?" Tsuna pointed at himself.
"Yes, my original idea was that since others could control this Mizukage, then maybe we could too, but I don't have any illusions, so I asked Captain Mikoto to go ahead and try."
Seto Chihiro slowly recounted her guesses, reasoning, and what she encountered in actual combat.
He was not telling a story he had just thought of, but was telling the truth based on the battle just now. Perhaps there might be some guiding content in the description, but he believed that Tsunade would not have any doubts about these contents. After all, he was just repeating one thing several times to deepen the other party's impression.
For example, in order to prevent Tsunade from being injured by mistake when he was holding her back, he threw Yagura into the distant forest. Even so, before Yagura realized that he had to be knocked down, he was moving in the direction of Tsunade...
"In other words, the Mizukage's original target was me?" After hearing Seto Chihiro's explanation, Tsunade couldn't help but think of the awkwardness she felt when fighting with the Mizukage. She never answered his questions, like a puppet.
Seto Chihiro Chihiro nodded: "That's right."
Tsunade's brows began to frown, her tone full of confusion: "But why is the target me? And if the target is me, I might not be able to dodge the first Tailed Beast Ball."
"Could it be that the first Tailed Beast Ball was not aimed well, and the second one saw the rising wall, so it hit the wall?"
After hearing Seto Chihiro's explanation in a low voice, Tsunade felt that... there did seem to be some truth in what she said.
Not every ninja village has the Byakugan, a tool for seeing through things.
There were so many people on the wall at that time, it was already very good that the Mizukage was able to launch the Tailed Beast Ball after being controlled.
"Mikoto, do you have a way to undo the illusion of this Mizukage?"
Although helping the invaders to break the illusion is very confusing.
but...
Only by breaking the illusion inside the Mizukage's body can we know what really happened.
As for the battle situation of Shikaku and others, Slug has just explained the battle over there. Some Mist ninjas were killed, a few were captured, and the rest escaped. Kakashi and others were also rushing here.
"Master Tsunade, I should be able to remove the illusion on the Mizukage, but..."
Uchiha Mikoto's face twisted in pain, and she knelt on one knee: "It's just an illusion on the Mizukage, it has absolutely nothing to do with the Uchiha clan. The only clan member who disappeared was Shisui, and before he disappeared, Shisui went to the Hokage Building and met with the Hokage before disappearing."
Did Shisui disappear after going to the Hokage Building? Tsunade took a deep breath and said, "Mikoto, don't get excited. I don't think the Uchiha clan did this."
Although Mikoto's words revealed a lot of information, the current situation is definitely not something that Uchiha Mikoto can explain with one-sided words.
"Captain Mikoto, if you can remove the illusion on the Mizukage now, you might find out what's going on."
Uchiha Mikoto nodded seriously. The most important thing now was to remove the illusion on the Mizukage and prove her innocence. She stood up and stood in front of the Mizukage, ignoring the water drops on her knees.
"untie!"
"Water escape. Water formation wall!"
Tsunade didn't say much when she saw her disciple using the Water Array Wall. The most important thing now was to understand why the Mizukage attacked Konoha and why the Mizukage, as the Jinchūriki, was so deeply trapped in the illusion that he couldn't extricate himself.
"Well..."
Karujutsu Yagura shook his head. He felt that he was now restrained. He looked up at the figure in front of him. The confusion in his eyes quickly changed. He coughed twice and said, "Thank you! Thank you for removing the illusion from me."
"It seems that the Mizukage-sama is aware of the situation he is in. However, before asking some questions, can you tell me why you are in the illusion?"
Yagura nodded and explained what happened a few years ago: "Okay, it all starts from the end of the Third Ninja World War..."
After the Third World War, Karatachi Yagura sealed the Three-Tails in his own body, and relying on his perfect Jinchūriki strength and the coincidence that the Third Mizukage died and there was no one to succeed him, he successfully became the fourth Mist Kage of the Hidden Mist Village.
Unfortunately, the good times are not long.
While dealing with an alien invader, he was defeated by a masked man, a blue-haired woman, and an orange-haired man.
Afterwards, he was controlled by a one-eyed man wearing a Uzumaki mask using a strange Sharingan eye.
"Wait, Mr. Mizukage, can you describe what the one-eyed man's Sharingan looks like?" After hearing Karatachi Yagura describe the appearance of the Sharingan, Uchiha Mikoto's face turned pale.
Yagura looked at the Sharingan in Mikoto's eyes and suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, but thinking that the other party would remove the illusion for him, he had to close his eyes and not look at those eyes: "It seems to be a Sharingan composed of three sickles..."
"......That's the Mangekyō Sharingan..."
The most terrifying thing happened. The Mizukage was not only controlled by the Sharingan, but also by the Mangekyō Sharingan. Mikoto felt suffocated.
Chapter 51 Chihiro, You Stay
Tsunade looked at the Mizukage in silence, then her gaze turned to Uchiha Mikoto. She felt that the complexity and difficulty of this matter had increased a lot.
Among the information the old man gave her was a description of the style of Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan - it was a four-cornered shuriken.
In addition, Kotoamatsukami, which is known as the eye technique, cannot be unlocked by a three-magatama Sharingan, so the one-eyed Uchiha wearing a swirl mask cannot be Shisui.
Mikoto also said that the last time she and Shisui went to the Hokage Building, they met Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen, and then disappeared.
Although these things seem to be unrelated on the surface, she always feels that it is far from as simple as it seems.
Seeing that they were no longer talking, Yagura, as the loser, had no right to negotiate, but when he thought of his compatriots being killed because of him, he couldn't help but say, "By the way, can you take these things off my body first?"
Seto Chihiro waved her hands and said in a tone that left no room for doubt: "But...what if after I untie you, you are controlled by someone else again? You just said that you were controlled after being looked at by those eyes, so it's better for everyone to keep you tied up."
"Chihiro, don't be rude to Lord Yagura." Tsunade pretended to scold, but actually looked at her disciple with admiration.
"Sir Tsunade, this time when the Hidden Mist Village attacked Konoha, I sent out all the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village under the control of the masked man. The elite team that just arrived is from the Hidden Mist Village. I will personally tell the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village who are currently fighting these things to end the unnecessary war between the two villages."
Yagura was getting annoyed when he saw that Tsunade had no intention of untying the restraints.
However, if the Hidden Mist Village was also beaten up by Konoha without saying a word, he believed that he might go even further than Tsunade.
"And whether it's compensation or launching a wanted notice for the masked man, as long as I'm still the Mizukage, I'm willing to actively cooperate in these matters."
"If you still don't believe it, you can take the initiative to cast a sealing technique on my body to block the flow of chakra between me and the three-tailed beast."
Yagura really can't afford to waste time. During the years of being controlled, although the Mist Ninjas who could become Jonin were very strong, the foundation of the village was already in ruins, and the entire Mist Village could be said to be crumbling.
If a war breaks out with Konoha again now, the Hidden Mist Village might win the war on the border, but by then, no matter whether other ninja villages will join the war, the Hidden Mist Village will not escape the fate of destruction.
Especially this kid who used Wood Release. Although he had no thoughts of his own when he was controlled, his memories came out like water after the control was released.
Strange wood escape technique... sneaking quickly inside the big tree... in a place full of trees like this, the Mist Ninja's water escape technique can hardly destroy the environment and restrict this little devil.
Tsunade pursed her lips. The most urgent and most important thing was to end the war. Konoha was now facing internal and external troubles. Now that the Kirigakure incident was over, she could focus on persuading the Uchiha clan: "Chihiro, quickly untie Lord Mizukage."
"Okay, Lady Tsunade." Seto Chihiro scratched her head and reached out to untie the locking blaster that bound Yagura.
In his opinion, it was not a big deal for Tsunade to kill the Mizukage directly.
Yagura did not hide some of the things the masked man did to the Hidden Mist Village. I'm afraid that if Tsunade killed Yagura, the Hidden Mist Village would not go to war with Konoha.
I'm afraid he will return to the Water Country immediately to defend the Hidden Cloud Village and sign an alliance treaty with Konoha.
However, it is still necessary to reduce the number of deaths. He has changed too many plots. If this happens, it is very likely that there will only be four ninja villages during the Fourth World War.
"Five Elements Seal!" Uchiha Mikoto walked forward and hit Yagura in the stomach.
"Thank you."
The Fourth Mizukage, Karutagi Yagura, turned much paler, but this result was much better than he had imagined. Before the seal was released, he could not sense the chakra of the Three-Tails, and had no way to make the chakra of the tailed beast in his body run wild.
"Tsunade-sama!" X2
Two figures landed not far from Tsunade from a nearby tree. After seeing the baby-faced figure in front of them, they took a defensive stance.
Yagura looked at the ninja that appeared and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. Could it be that the 70 Jōnin from the Hidden Mist Village that he led had all been killed?
"Kakashi, Kai, don't panic. I'll explain the details during the meeting later."
Tsunade put on the clothes handed to her by Chihiro and said, "Mikoto, now you and them should go back to the camp with this Mizukage. I will be back later."
"Ha~" Seto Chihiro yawned behind Mikoto. She was more tired after a night of high-intensity physical activity than from using the sheep charm for several nights.
"Wait, Chihiro, what are you going to do?" Tsunade reached out and lifted Chihiro Seto from behind, placed her in front of her eyes, curled the corners of her lips, and a playful smile appeared on her face.
"Ah? Of course I should go back to sleep, teacher." Chihiro felt herself being reminded, but she didn't think too much about it and didn't think Tsunade would hurt her.
As for calling Tsunade-sensei in front of several people, this title would be exposed sooner or later. The main reason why he didn't call her that in front of Mikoto before was out of caution, as he felt that Mikoto had ulterior motives.
And after the battle at night, his relationship with Mikoto became more than just a normal 'comrade' and their bond improved.
"Kakashi, is this your youth? If so, let's see who is faster!"
Sure enough, after hearing Seto Chihiro's call, Kakashi's speed suddenly increased, causing Gai to activate the potential youth in his heart, and Mikoto also hurried to keep up with their pace.
Even the slug turned into a pile of smoke under Tsunade's gaze.
Looking at the backs of the four people, she put down the boy in her hands and said frankly: "Don't you want to say something to me?"
What to say? Seto Chihiro's throat hardened, and he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He didn't seem to hear what question Tsunade asked.
"Boy, shouldn't you explain your strange ninjutsu and wood escape techniques?"
Hearing Tsunade's question, Chihiro suddenly realized.
"Teacher, I..."
