At this moment, Mei Terumi suddenly opened her eyes.

Wu Ye was subconsciously stunned.

Because he saw a different expression in these eyes than before.

Just yesterday, he could still see flashes of confusion and entanglement from time to time.

But looking at it again now, I can see that deep within those haggard bloodshot eyes, a heart-pounding firmness is gradually spreading.

"You seem..."

He said uncertainly: "Have you made a decision?"

Mei Terumi bit her lips tightly and looked at him without saying a word.

"Well…"

The next moment, two hot lips pressed upwards.

A pair of arms suddenly wrapped around Wuye's neck, gathering all the heat from his body onto his lips, giving it all to him without hesitation.

Wu Ye hurriedly reached out to hold the back of her neck and support her to prevent her from feeling uncomfortable.

Under the support of his hands, Mei Terumi seemed to be encouraged and became more wanton and indulgent.

But Wu Ye’s eyes became clearer.

Many times, when a person behaves abnormally, it often means that she has made a choice that she had never intended to make.

"call…"

Finally, Mei Terumi couldn't hold her breath anymore and moved her lips away, breathing heavily, her body trembling slightly against Wu Ye.

"you…"

Wu Ye looked normal, except for his slightly swollen lips...

"Don't ask, don't think, just stay with me for a few more days."

Mei Terumi stopped him from speaking with her hand.

In the next few days, just as Wu Ye had expected, Mei Terumi fought for the position of the Fifth Mizukage, and was then asked to draw a clear line with him.

The Water Country can cooperate with the Fire Country, but it cannot become a vassal state. This is the bottom line for all the ninjas in the Hidden Mist Village.

The five major countries have been established for a long time, and most of the time they are not bullied like small countries. Naturally, they have also united the people's hearts, so many people sincerely hope that their country will be strong.

"Wuye, the Hidden Cloud Village troops have retreated..."

That evening, Mei Terumi leaned against the railing under the lingering clouds, enjoying the cool breeze.

"Oh, that's to be expected."

Wu Ye leaned beside her indifferently.

"You came to the Hidden Mist Village and directly killed our Fourth Mizukage. The deterrent effect would be even greater than what you did in the Rain Country. Naturally, the Hidden Cloud Village would not dare to face Konoha alone." Mei Terumi whispered.

Wuye reached out and hugged her voluptuous figure from her side, sniffing her hair: "So, you from the Hidden Mist Village didn't express your stance before, so what are you going to do now?"

Mei Terumi leaned back slightly and leaned herself in Wuye's arms, enjoying the tranquility.

A long while passed like this, until the sun set, and she slowly said: "The Elder Council proposed that the Hidden Mist Village initiate the convening of the Four Kage Conference to show its position and attitude."

"The Four Kage Tournament? What is that? Only the First Hokage has ever convened a Five Kage Tournament, right?"

Wuye curled his lips: "Excluding the Hokage's conference?"

"Ah."

Mei Terumi hummed softly.

Wuye pondered for a while before saying, "This is interesting. Because of the pressure from Konoha and the Land of Fire, you four major nations are planning to unite... This is also the token of your elders' hope that you will give."

Mei Terumi was silent for a while, then slowly nodded: "Yes... Elder Yuanshi said that as long as I agree to initiate a joint resistance against Konoha as the Mizukage, the position of the Fifth Hokage will be mine."

"What are you going to do?"

Wu Ye's hands gently rested on her flat belly.

"what do you want me to do?"

She covered his hands with her hands, her face looking distressed.

"Just do it once you've thought it through. Don't worry too much." Wu Ye said in her ear.

Mei Terumi looked back in surprise: "You don't seem to care about the Four Kage Tournament?"

Wu Ye curled his lips and said, "If you hadn't participated, I would have wanted to destroy your venue."

Mei Terumi rolled her eyes: "What an arrogant fellow."

"You still don't have enough vision. You haven't seen the most critical part of the series of actions taken by the Land of Fire and Konoha," Wuye shook his head. "When all the surrounding small countries fell to Konoha, you lost your buffer zone, and we gained a barrier."

"But apart from the Rain Country, who would be willing to help your Konoha resist the pressure from the four major ninja villages?" Mei Terumi disagreed.

“National interest.”

Wu Ye said calmly: "National interests are above everything else. When the interests are too much for them to give up, they can only become a barrier for Konoha."

Mei Terumi was silent for a while, then sighed, "I also proposed Konoha's policy to the elders, but they rejected it without even a second thought..."

"Of course they will refuse," Wuye smiled. "Without the economic power of the Fire Country, they cannot offer the same conditions as Konoha. If they force a competition, it will only reduce the interests of the upper echelons of the ninja village. This is the last thing the vested interests want to do."

"That's it..."

Mei Terumi lowered her head and said, "I'm a little discouraged..."

Wuye looked at her and shook his head, "You have a great advantage, not only have you seen the system of Konoha, but also the Blood Mist Village."

"The village of blood mist?"

Mei Terumi asked in confusion: "Wouldn't that greatly weaken the Hidden Mist Village? What good would that do?"

"While it has been greatly weakened," Wuye smiled, "it has also broken the original class structure of the Hidden Mist Village, which gives you a lot of freedom to adjust the distribution of power."

"That's right..."

Mei Terumi's eyes lit up for a moment, but then slowly drooped, looking like she was in a very bad mood.

"I, the Hokage of Konoha, am here to help you with your plans, why are you still looking so sad?"

Wu Ye reached out and pinched her high nose affectionately.

Mei Terumi shook her head slightly, shook his hand away, and then nudged him backwards: "All you said means that I will become the fifth generation. Do you hope so?"

Wu Ye touched his chin: "The identity of Mizukage seems to have some advantages..."

"asshole!"

Mei Terumi turned around and stomped his foot hard, saying angrily: "You obviously know why I'm sad!"

"But it doesn't change the decision you made, does it?"

Wu Ye seemed very calm, as if he didn't know that a gap was about to appear between the two of them...

"By the way, do you, the Hidden Mist Village, still want the Three-Tails?"

The two of them leaned side by side on the railing.

"Yes, the elders were still wondering why there was no trace of the Three-Tails in the Yondaime's body," Mei Terumi came back to her senses, "Everyone thought that it was because the Jinchūriki's death of the tailed beast also caused it to become silent, and they also thought that the seal you made might not have been able to completely divide the life force... So, it was actually you who took it away?"

"Yeah, I think it misses the big lake too much, so I let it have fun for a few days." Wu Ye said with a smile.

Mei Terumi looked at him in confusion, not understanding why he seemed so familiar with the Three-Tails.

"How about this, I'll take you to seal it in your body, just like Gojira Yagura, so it won't be connected to your life force," Wuye took her soft hand, "The Three-Tails won't go against you on purpose. Once you become a Jinchūriki, you'll have the confidence to challenge the elders."

Mei Terumi raised her eyes and stared at him, saying dully, "Do you know that I will soon be on the opposite side of you, and I will also have to stop the Four Nations Alliance from fighting against you?"

"I know!"

Wu Ye nodded affirmatively, but his expression seemed unconcerned.

In fact, the Four-Nation Alliance was exactly what he had expected...

"Then why are you so nice to me?!" Mei Terumi shook off his hand, "Why don't you just stay by my side for a few days and don't do anything else?"

"That won't do," Wu Ye shook his head and refused, "I can't let you be bullied. Are these just a bunch of old-fashioned and conservative elders qualified to control you?"

Mei Terumi wanted to say something but stopped herself, and finally could only let out a breath, letting out all the complicated joy and sadness in her heart.

"Let's go." She offered.

"Hold it in your hand."

Wu Ye extended his right hand to her.

Mei Terumi looked back at him and slowly put her left hand into his warm hand...

"Is this the place that Sanwei likes?"

Half a day later, the two arrived at a huge lake to the north of the Hidden Mist Village.

"It has stayed here for many years and can be said to be the most home-bound tailed beast." Wuye said with a smile.

"Isofu--"

He walked to the shore and suddenly let out a loud call, which startled Mei Terumi who was beside him.

However, the lake is still as calm as a mirror, without any change.

Terumi Mei gave him a strange look: "It doesn't seem to be there? Could it be that it lied to you, and then escaped by itself?"

Wuye shook his head: "The tailed beasts are pure chakra life forms. They don't have as many tricks as us humans...except for a certain cunning stinky fox."

"Ah! You bastard! You said bad things about me again! Ahhh!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox is roaring...

"You trust them?"

Mei Terumi looked at him strangely.

"At least he is more trustworthy than humans." Wu Ye said with a smile.

"Wow!"

Suddenly, a wave rose in the center of the lake.

"Look, here it comes."

Wu Ye immediately pointed in that direction and Terumi Mei looked over there.

"Crash!"

The lake water gradually surged, and the entire lake with a radius of several thousand meters was shaking.

Then, a huge three-tailed head emerged from the center of the lake, and then swam over like a big turtle.

"Day and night, here I come."

Its voice was still as strange, but it was so strange that Wu Ye could hear a hint of reluctance.

"Haven't you had enough fun yet?" Wu Ye said with a smile.

Sanwei looked back at the big lake, and blinked with one eye: "It's been so many years since I've been so free, how could it be possible?"

Mei Terumi actually felt a desolate mood from it.

She couldn't help but ask, "Wuye, can you just let it stay here?"

The three-tailed fox suddenly looked up at her for a few seconds, then slowly said, "She is the next Jinchūriki? She looks pretty good."

"You were bought off with just one sentence?" Wu Ye smiled speechlessly, "Then why don't you just do as she says and continue to stay here?"

"do not want!"

Mei Terumi thought the Three-Tail would be happy, but she didn't expect it to refuse so decisively.

"Why?" she asked curiously.

Sanwei flapped his tail a few times, causing huge waves in the lake.

"Because I'm afraid that the seal will be caught by others. Only his seal can be unconnected to the life force. In this way, even if the Jinchūriki dies, I can still live." It set off a big wave, "I don't want to lose my memory and start over."
