I don't want to be a hero.

The unfortunate Hashira was cast into an illusion by Uchiha Itachi the moment he woke up, making him see the scene of him slaughtering his entire clan, including how Uchiha Fugaku died at his hands.

Chapter 452: Is Yeya the backup plan left by the Six Paths Sage?

In the end, just like in the original novel, Jiko completely hated his brother Uchiha Itachi and vowed to kill him!

That’s right. Compared to Yaya, who was the “mastermind”, Sasuke was more ruthless to Uchiha Itachi, who was just an accomplice.

The reason is very simple. In Jiji's view, the mastermind, Yaya, is a ninja from the enemy village, and it is understandable that he would massacre the largest clan in Konoha.

As a genius of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Itachi was highly expected by the clan, but he chose to betray!

As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the harsher the blame. Sasuke used to trust Uchiha Itachi, and now that he has been betrayed, his hatred is naturally overwhelming.

In short, Uchiha Itachi is at the top of Sasuke's kill list, while Yaya and the Hidden Mist Village can only be ranked second.

After Uchiha Itachi defected from the village, he found the so-called "Uchiha Madara" and joined the "Akatsuki Organization" under his introduction.

Uchiha Itachi had a problem, and Uchiha Obito could naturally see it, but he didn't care.

On the one hand, Uchiha Itachi is one of Obito's important chess pieces, and collecting the tailed beasts requires his power.

On the one hand, he also needed to convey some things he wanted Konoha to know through Uchiha Itachi.

After Uchiha Itachi left, a man with a huge Venus flytrap on his head and a face that was half black and half white appeared in front of Uchiha Obito.

"Who was that person last night? If there is such a strong person in the ninja world, why couldn't we gather any information about him before?"

Uchiha Obito revealed one eye from behind his mask and glared at the big-headed yin-yang face in front of him with a very displeased tone.

"We also hid aside and watched the subsequent battle. The opponent actually defeated the entire Konoha Village by himself!"

“As for his origins, we still have no clue. It’s as if this person appeared out of nowhere in the ninja world.

It stands to reason that such a strong man could not have remained completely unknown for the past ten years, or even have no trace left."

“And his strength is also quite abnormal. He is obviously not a Jinchūriki, but he possesses such amazing chakra.

The strength that the opponent has shown in Konoha is close to that of Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama in their prime."

When Black Zetsu talked about Yeya, his expression was solemn. Obviously, the appearance of this "Uchiha Shikakan" was completely beyond his imagination.

“No matter what, in order to prevent any accidents from happening, we must immediately investigate this person’s background.

If you can win them over, do your best. If you can’t, if necessary, you can mobilize everyone, including Payne, to kill them before anything goes wrong.”

It was originally thought that since the death of Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara, Nagato had been the top combat force in the ninja world, and the current "Akatsuki Organization" was already quite mature. Coupled with his familiarity with the history of the ninja world, Uchiha Obito thought he was quite stable.

However, Ye Ya's appearance caught him off guard. The opponent's level of strength was enough to influence the overall situation.

After Obito left, Black Zetsu looked at Obito's back sarcastically, while constantly thinking about Yeya's origins in his heart.

Having lived for thousands of years, he can be said to be the same age as the Ninja Clan. Even the first-generation Kages of the five major Ninja villages are not even as old as his grandchildren in front of him.

In order to rescue his mother Kaguya Otsutsuki, Black Zetsu thought his plan was perfect. Moreover, he had been keeping an eye on some capable guys in the ninja world over the years.

But even so, he still couldn't remember Yeya at all. Since the other party was so powerful, it was impossible for him not to leave any clues in the ninja world over the years.

Unless the other person is like me, and has lived with me for thousands of years...

But this is impossible. Even the Six Paths Sage was exhausted to death by me. That is because I am a part of Kaguya Otsutsuki's body. No one else can live that long.

"Could it be that the other party is the backup plan left by Hamura and Yuyi?"

Black Zetsu could only think so, because considering the other party's age, it was unscientific for him to possess such power.

However, the other party is neither from the Senju clan nor the Uchiha clan's bloodline Sharingan, and his eye has only been opened to the two magatama state. If he is the descendant of Hamura, it would be too inferior.

White Zetsu was still chattering on and on. If it weren't for the fact that he had to hide his identity and lurk, Black Zetsu swore that he would never share a body with this idiot.

The appearance of Yaya made Black Zetsu quite concerned. In fact, even if Obito didn't ask him to investigate, he would have started investigating Yaya himself.

I have been waiting for nearly a thousand years, and I have been paying close attention to every generation of Indra and Asura being born.

After nearly a thousand years of painstaking efforts, they have finally achieved the current good situation. This is also the closest time they have been to saving Kaguya, so Black Zetsu naturally does not want to make any more mistakes.

If I remember correctly, that person used "Ice Release", so if we want to investigate, we should start with the Mizunotsuki clan in the Hidden Mist Village...

As for Konoha, since the night of the Uchiha clan massacre, the Third Hokage personally wrote a letter and sent an envoy to the Hidden Mist Village.

Although Uchiha Itachi later said that the strong man that night should indeed be a member of the "Uchiha clan", because the other party could open the Sharingan freely, which could not be faked.

But the Third Hokage still felt that the other party was a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village.

Because in Shisui's report at that time, the person who tried to sneak into Konoha Village was a Kirigakure ninja, and the other party also used "Ice Escape".

The two could not be so coincidental, so the Third Hokage concluded that even if Yaya was not a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, he was definitely related.

The most important point is that, according to Uchiha Itachi, before the Uchiha clan was exterminated, many young children of the clan leader had been transferred by the other side.

The reason why the Third Hokage wrote to the Fourth Mizukage was very simple, which was to ask the other party to hand over the remaining members of the Uchiha clan.

On this point, both the Third Hokage and Danzo were surprisingly unanimous in their opinions.

Now that the Uchiha clan has been exterminated, everyone understands the principle of cutting the grass at its roots.

If those children of the Uchiha clan grow up in the future, they will become an unstable factor for Konoha.

Although the Uchiha clan was at fault first, after all, they wanted to rebel, so it was understandable that Konoha destroyed their clan.

But there is no rule that says people can’t take revenge.

The Third Hokage had no expectation that the Hidden Mist Village would hand over the Ice Release Ninja who caused the trouble that night. Even if they handed him over, they would be unable to do anything to him.

However, Konoha is not going to compromise on the issue of the Uchiha orphan, and the budding of hatred must be nipped in the bud.

When you need to be ruthless, you must not be merciful.

This is the world of ninjas. Excessive mercy will only lead to one's own death. Moreover, as the Kage of a village, he is responsible for the safety of the entire village. He cannot leave such a huge hidden danger for the village after his death.

Chapter 453: The Messenger of Konoha

As for Yeya, he did bring the orphans of the Uchiha clan back to the Hidden Mist Village.

In the huge Uchiha clan, there are only about ten children under the age of six, two of whom are only a few months old, and the rest are just kids.

"Uncle Luguan, where are my parents? Where are we now?"

After traveling through several worlds, this was the first time he was called uncle, although Ye Ya repeatedly emphasized that for a handsome guy like him, being called brother was actually more in line with his image.

But the little ones didn't give him any face, saying that their parents asked them to call him "uncle".

When the little ones asked where their parents had gone, Ye Ya was a little puzzled.

How should he answer these little guys? Tell them that his relatives were killed by Konoha and the Uchiha clan was exterminated?

"Our Uchiha clan was destroyed. Bad guys came to the village. Your parents must have died in battle to protect us from leaving...

As for where we are going now, we are going to hide in other villages to avoid being found by those bad guys."

Ye Ya did not tell the truth. Given their current age, it would be too cruel to let them know the truth.

When they grow up and want to find the real answer, Ye Ya will not stop them, but for now, let them regard their parents as great heroes.

As expected, when they heard that their parents had died in the war, most of them burst into tears on the spot.

Among them, there are a few who are more mature and say that they must work hard to become stronger and avenge their parents in the future!

Because he was carrying a large group of little kids, Yeya's speed of returning to the Hidden Mist Village was very slow.

When he rushed back to the Hidden Mist Village, the envoy from Konoha Village had already arrived in the Hidden Mist Village a few days ago.

As the strongest of the five ninja villages, Konoha Village, the Hidden Mist Village naturally gave the other party enough courtesy.

However, when the other party expressed that they needed to meet with the Mizukage and said that the Hokage had an important letter to deliver in person, the top leaders of the Hidden Mist Village became troubled again.

Their Fourth Mizukage has been missing for many days and they are still looking for him. How can they get him to come and receive the letter from the Hokage?

"What's wrong? Is the Mizukage busy with important matters? It's okay, I can wait.

Because this matter is very important and concerns the friendly relations between the two villages, I must meet the Mizukage in person and hand over the letter to him."

The person who was sent to the Hidden Mist Village as an envoy this time was Konoha's special jonin Yamashiro Aoba.

Although he could hear the refusal in the words of the Kirigakure high-level officials, he still spoke patiently.

As the Kage of a village, it is impossible for him to leave the ninja village at will. Either the Mizukage is really busy with affairs, or the other party does not want to see him at all.

Or maybe, something happened to the Fourth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village, causing him to be unable to show up...

Looking at the very persistent Yamashiro Aoba, the top leaders of Kirigakure also had a bitter look on their faces.

Should I just tell them that their Mizukage is missing? I can't see him at all?

Stop kidding me, the Mizukage's disappearance was concealed even from the ninjas in the village, so how could they possibly tell the ninjas from other ninja villages?

After discussing for a while, some high-ranking members of Kirigakure even proposed the idea of ​​keeping Yamashiro Aoba forever.

Even if two armies are at war, there is a convention of not fighting each other, not to mention that the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Leaf Village are not in a state of war yet.

However, the fact that the Mizukage is in trouble cannot be exposed.

Now their Kirigakure is still in a state of internal strife, and with the Mizukage missing, the situation is already quite dire.

If the other four major ninja villages knew about this... then it might not be long before there are only four major ninja villages instead of five major ninja villages in the ninja world.

In fact, Konoha also sent messengers a while ago, but they were easily sent away at that time (when Yaya first encountered Shisui).

But who knew that the person who came from Konoha this time would have such a firm attitude and would not budge at all, insisting on seeing the Mizukage.

Yamashiro Aoba also realized that something was wrong at this time. These high-level elders of Kirigakure actually began to surround him unintentionally, which was obviously preparing to attack him!

When the top leaders of Kirigakure received the signal to attack together and were preparing to kill this special jonin of Konoha, a woman with long chestnut hair suddenly walked in.

"It is not convenient for the Mizukage to see you for the time being. You can choose to leave the letter, or you can stay in the village for a few more days. When the Mizukage is done with his work, he will naturally meet you."

The person who came was naturally Mei Terumi, and the reason why she agreed to Yamashiro Aoba was very simple.

Because according to Mizunoe Yoshizuki, his younger brother had already found a way to free the Mizukage from the illusion in Konoha, and was already on his way back.

Now that a solution has been found, there is naturally no need to kill Yamashiro Aoba.

Killing this special jonin from Konoha might be able to temporarily conceal the fact that the Fourth Mizukage was in trouble, but it wouldn't be able to hide it for long.

If Konoha does not see this special jonin return for a long time, they will also become suspicious and even cause diplomatic conflict.

Once they start fighting with Konoha, the news that the Mizukage is not in the Hidden Mist Village will also be exposed.

However, Mei Terumi doesn't believe that the other three major ninja villages will not be tempted by this piece of fat meat.

"In that case, I will stay in your village for a while, because the Hokage has instructed that the letter must be delivered to the Mizukage personally."

Yamashiro Aoba left in a cold sweat, and only he knew that he had almost walked through the gates of hell.

Even though those Mist Hidden Elders were old, their strength was by no means ordinary. If they had attacked together just now, he would not even have had a chance to escape.

"It seems that something really went wrong in the Hidden Mist Village. Unfortunately, the Hidden Mist Village is quite wary of me, so I can't report the situation to the Hokage."

After Yamashiro Aoba left, the elders of Kirigakure all stared at Mei Terumi. Their eyes spoke for themselves: they needed an explanation.

Why did she treat Konoha's people so badly? Was the disappearance of the Fourth Mizukage related to her? What is the current situation of the Mizukage?

Naturally, she took the initiative to stand up, and Mei Terumi naturally had no intention of hiding anything.

Anyway, the problem has been solved. Only after Yaya returns to the village can the Fourth Mizukage get rid of the illusion and return to his post again.

"The Fourth Mizukage was caught in a genjutsu? Isn't he a Jinchūriki?"

"You actually kidnapped the Mizukage. How dare you do that!"

After hearing what Mei Terumi said, the Kirigakure elders were all shocked.

On the one hand, people were impressed by the audacity of Yeya and the other two. Just three people defeated a large number of Anbu including the Fourth Mizukage.

On the other hand, he was shocked that the shadows of their Hidden Mist Village had actually been puppets controlled by someone all along!

Because the amount of information was so overwhelming, it took the elders a long time to come back to their senses.

Chapter 454 Yeya Returns to the Hidden Mist Village

The elders of Kirigakure did not have too many doubts about what Mei Terumi said and believed that what she said was probably true.

Because the changes in the Fourth Mizukage in recent years are so different from when he first took office.
