Escape From Konoha

The water surged rapidly and crashed into the surrounding huge buildings.

A figure stood firmly on top of the surging water, his hands were in a mudra, and a slender stream of water sprayed out from his mouth, sweeping across the entire area like an aurora, and buildings collapsed with rumbling sounds.

Yagura's arm began to bleed, where he was accidentally scratched by the thin stream of water that shot over.

However, Yagura didn't pay too much attention. Under the influence of the three-tailed chakra, the wound on his arm quickly healed and the blood was evaporated.

The following three generations of Mizukage chased after him, and the water blade that cut gold and jade was no problem, even the body of the tailed beast was difficult to defend, if it was hit by that water blade, it would declare die.

Although the three generations of Mizukage are old and frail, and their strength has weakened, their understanding and application of art has not become dull with age, but has become more sophisticated than before.

"After all, he is one of the Five Shadows."

Yagura sighed softly.

Countless ninjas have been unable to transcend the peak existence of the past.

Don't underestimate it just because you are old or frail.

He had tried to increase the strength of the Third Mizukage as much as possible, but in the end he still underestimated the enemy too much.

Fortunately, he had secretly mastered the power of the three tails before, otherwise, this battle would most likely end in failure.

But how to fight the Third Mizukage next is also a thorny problem.

The water escape ninjutsu of the third generation of Mizukage is extremely lethal, and the attainment of water escape is far superior to his own. His own water escape is likely to be used by the opponent to target him.

If the Three-Tails were completely liberated, they would be easily targeted by the Third Mizukage's sealing technique due to their large size and lack of flexibility.

Yagura would not believe that the third Mizukage would not have the ability to seal the three tails.

The tailed beast is an important weapon in the village. Every 'shadow' in the village will learn more or less the sealing technique used against the tailed beast.

For ordinary ninjas, the huge body of the Tailed Beast can form a powerful suppressive force, but facing ninjas of the level of 'Five Kages', it is completely unfeasible just because of its huge size.

Maybe he will become a living target in their hands.

Do you want to use Tailed Beast Jade? Yagura pondered this possibility.

As a perfect Jinchuuriki, you don't need to transform into a tailed beast to be able to use the tailed beast's special move - the tailed beast jade.

It's just that the scale of the technique is far less powerful than the tailed beast form.

Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in Yagura's eyes, and he began to adjust the tailed beast chakra in his body.

The tailed beast coat on his body became increasingly bright red, as if it was about to solidify.

Seeing Yagura's tailed beast transformation progressing further, the Third Mizukage who was chasing after him also had a look on his face, realizing that Yagura would make a big move next.

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

The water dragon rose from the ground, leaped out from Yagura's side, and rushed towards the Third Mizukage.

This was a bait, and the Third Mizukage knew this, so he did not dodge, and sprayed a torrent of water from his mouth, cutting the water dragon in half from head to tail.

There were wet traces of water underfoot, swaying in the air.

The release of the Water Shuttle was completed in an instant, and the third Mizukage rushed in front of Yagura in the blink of an eye. The chakra in his arms surged, and the water flow rippled on the surface of his arms.

"Water Release: Dragon Wrist!"

The dragon's head formed by the convergence of water flow appeared on the fist, and it fell mercilessly on Yagura's chest, hitting him head-on.

A terrifying explosion sounded, followed by invisible ripples in the atmosphere, and cracks visible to the naked eye appeared on the road and the buildings on both sides.

Yagura's body flew out like a cannonball. At the moment it flew out, Yagura also completed the work of condensing the tailed beast jade.

A sphere with a black core and a purple halo on the outside comes from tearing apart the air.

The third Mizukage's eyes widened, Tailed Beast Tama! ?

Although the volume is much smaller than the Tailed Beast Jade used by Tailed Beasts, but the color and the palpitating pressure, there is no doubt that this is genuine Tailed Beast Jade.

With no time to think, facing the sudden danger, the Third Mizukage stepped back without hesitation and formed seals with his hands at the same time.

Flood spread on the streets, rushing forward overwhelmingly, swallowing up the tailed beast Jade Whale.

Stimulated by the huge power, the tailed beast jade in the water began to shine, and was on the verge of exploding.

Three generations of Mizukage naturally wouldn't let the Tailed Beast Jade explode, because he would be injured, and it would cause serious damage to the village. Putting his hands on the water, Chakra was injected into the water.

The light of the Tailed Beast Jade became stronger and stronger, and when it reached a critical point, the blazing light shot out from the water surface, but the force of the explosion did not break out of the water surface, and only caused a painless vibration.

The power of the explosion was restrained in the water by the third generation Mizukage's magic.

The Third Mizukage coughed, turned pale, and smiled slightly.

I didn't expect that it would be extremely difficult to seal even an attack of this level. I am really getting older.

When he was in his prime, an attack of this level could be easily sealed with water escape and would not be taken seriously at all.

A strong wind blew from behind. Yagura, who was wearing a tailed beast's coat, gripped a long stick weapon with a curved hook and swung it towards the back of the Third Mizukage.

The third Mizukage gathered water on his arms and turned around to fight back.

The chakras of the two collided with each other, and their bodies shook each other and jumped backwards.

"Water Release·Ji Zhen Big Shock Wave!"

Yagura opened his mouth, and water rushed out, gathering in mid-air a huge turtle covered with thorns and three tails.

The Third Mizukage looked at the water turtle falling from the sky and saw at a glance that it was a powerful water escape created based on the three-tailed body shape.

The impact force is even greater than the water dragon bullet technique.

Without hesitation, the water dragon slash was released again, splitting the water turtle from the middle.

The blade of water that cuts iron like mud is the third Mizukage's favorite move.

In addition to illusion attacks, physical attacks and regular ninjutsu attacks will be torn apart by the water blade.

Compared to Konoha's Sandaime Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, a ninjutsu doctor who can skillfully use five escape techniques, only knows water escape.

In terms of coping with the environment, he is far inferior to Konoha's third generation of Hokage, but because he has been specializing in water escape ninjutsu for decades, and his attainments in water escape, since the death of the second generation of Hokage Senshou Feima, He is confident that among the current ninjas, no one's water escape can surpass him.

Instead of wasting energy on the rest of the spells, he might as well specialize in water escape, which is enough for him to deal with many enemies.

The water is invisible, it can contain everything, and it can also turn into an indestructible blade in his hands!

Yakura has already experienced the power of water escape of the third generation of Mizukage through the previous battles.

No matter what kind of water escape he uses, he can't block the water dragon slash of the third generation of Mizukage, which is a water blade that can cut everything.

It doesn't even matter if it cuts off the tailed beast's hard body.

In addition to being bulky, this is also an important reason why Yagura is unwilling to use a full-tailed beast.

To deal with large creatures, the Mizukage's Water Dragon Slash has a stronger room to play.

Therefore, Yagura did not hesitate to release the Tailed Beast Tama again and attack the Third Mizukage.

"Such tricks are useless to me!"

The Third Mizukage cast a spell to release the water flow, covering the tailed beast jade again. Even if the tailed beast jade exploded, it could not break through the shackles of the water layer.

It was some kind of powerful water escape sealing technique that could suppress everything.

The characteristic of water containing all things is also displayed.

However, this is exactly what Yagura wants.

Sure enough, the Third Mizukage, who had sealed the Tailed Beast Tama again, was panting even more rapidly than before.

Moreover, the chakra in the body is also rapidly depleted.

In the sight of the Third Mizukage, Yagura began to condense the third small tailed beast jade.

Even a small tailed beast jade explodes with such force that the flesh and blood of a ninja cannot withstand it.

In order to avoid being involved in the explosion of the tailed beast jade, the third generation Mizukage could only use the water escape sealing technique again, which seemed to consume quite a lot of energy and chakra.

The Third Mizukage also seemed to have anticipated Yagura's plan and cursed secretly.

Yagura is a perfect Jinchuuriki, and the tailed beasts in his body continuously condense and transmit chakra for him. No matter how conceited he is, the Third Mizukage will not be arrogant enough to compete with the tailed beasts in chakra consumption.

Among the Five Kages, only ninjas with special characteristics like the Raikage possess the same amount of terrifying chakra as the tailed beasts.

In his prime, he might be able to fight for a long time, but with his energy and chakra declining, in a chakra competition with a tailed beast, he, the Mizukage, would definitely fall first in the end.

Despicable? This is just a tactical application.

Make the most of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, Yagura is well versed in the art of fighting.

It would be too much of a disadvantage to compete with the Third Mizukage in the Water Release Ninjutsu. His physical skills were only half as good, and he had to be wary of the Third Mizukage's Water Dragon Slash attack. It was not suitable for a competition between Ninjutsu and Taijutsu.

As for genjutsu... Although Yagura and the Third Mizukage know how to break genjutsu, they are both ninjas who are not very good at genjutsu.

Therefore, competing in chakra consumption is what Yagura considers to be a chance for victory.

Only in this way can he achieve final victory in this battle.

◎

The sky thunder flashed, and under the pull of the thunder knife, it continued to explode toward the ground.

The Thunder Sword Fang, which can amplify the lightning escape and even pull the sky thunder, is undoubtedly the most destructive Ninja Sword among the seven Ninja Swords.

At this moment, the destructive power of the thunder knife was fully revealed.

The puffer fish ghost kept dodging and scurrying around on the ground, unable to get close to Lin Yuli at all.

Once he gets close, the dense power of thunder can dismantle his entire body.

The puffer fish also hated the guy who caused cumulonimbus clouds with fire escape.

Ming Ming used the characteristics of the broadsword Samehada to neutralize all of her thunder escape ninjutsu in the battle with Yuri Ringo and gained the upper hand. However, the moment the cumulonimbus clouds formed, Yuri Lin quickly swept away the situation, turned from defense to offense, and suppressed him severely.

Damn it, why hasn't support arrived yet? The signal has been sent! The pufferfish ghost was thinking anxiously in his heart while dodging the thunderous attack.

More than half an hour had passed since the signal was sent out. Even if they were entangled by Yagura's people, no one would be able to get through.

After all, the sound of fighting can still be heard in various parts of Kirigakure Village. Obviously, the battle there has not yet been completely decided.

But here's the strange thing, why hasn't anyone come to support him yet?

Tongcao Yebairen also went to deal with the guy who used fire escape to assist Lin Jiaoyu Yuli. Why hasn't he come back yet?

Does it take that long to deal with a fire escape ninja?

Could it be that he was worried about his failure, so he just ran away?

The more the puffer fish thought about it, the angrier it became. All of them were incompetent people who could not be trusted.

Seeing Kisame who was still fighting silently on the side, restraining some of the thunder, the depression in the puffer fish's heart lessened a little.

Sure enough, Kisame was the only subordinate he could trust. It was not in vain that he valued him so much and taught him various fighting skills and ninjutsu.

It's just that there's no way to go on like this. The cumulonimbus clouds in the sky are getting worse and worse, with no intention of dissipating.

He was afraid that before the cumulonimbus clouds dissipated, he and Kisame would have fallen down from exhaustion.

"Don't think about Yunyin and your subordinates. They have too much time to take care of themselves. How can they have time to talk to you, a fat pig. After all, they may not be that loyal to you."

Lin Yuri laughed and used words to disturb the pufferfish ghost's mind.

Sure enough, because of Lin Yuri's words, the puffer fish had a flaw, and thunder and lightning struck quickly.

The puffer fish hurriedly put up his Samehada and blocked the thunderous attack on his behalf.

The bandage on the Samehada sword has been broken, revealing a dark blue blade covered with barbs. The head of the blade has a big mouth that looks like some kind of fish, with sharp teeth. It is in pain due to the attack of the thunder. Grinning his teeth, he let out a continuous hum of dissatisfaction.

Apparently the puffer ghost continued to deflate it, and felt extremely unhappy, but because of its identity as the sword master, the puffer ghost didn't choose to explode.

"You bastards, are you trying to annoy me completely?"

The fugu ghost's face was ferocious, and he became as terrifying as a ghost, and his whole body was boiling with murderous aura.

"If that's the case, it's an honor."

Ringo Yuyuri continued to stimulate the puffer ghost, then picked up two thunder knives, and in the most basic posture, slashed at the puffer ghost from top to bottom.

The puffer fish ghost knew that the sky thunder could not be absorbed by shark muscles, so naturally he didn't dare to touch it casually.

There is an essential difference between the sky thunder and the lightning made by Chakra.

"cut!"

After evading Lin Yuyuli's attack, the puffer fish ghost knew that Yunyin could no longer have expectations.

Although I don't know what Yakura did, it is already a fact that Yun Yin's reinforcements will not come.

His men were also entangled and unable to come to his aid.

And Lin Yuyuli used cumulonimbus to guide Tianlei, putting him at a disadvantage in the battle, and it was only a matter of time before he lost the battle.

At this moment, a slightly embarrassed figure landed next to the pufferfish ghost.

"Master Fugu Ghost, let's retreat as soon as possible. It's pointless to continue fighting."

The person who made the suggestion was none other than Kisame.

Kisame's idea was also in line with the Fugu Demon's wishes at the moment, but it only made him give up the power he had worked so hard to build, and his heart was full of unwillingness.

"We will retreat first and wait for the outcome of the battle between Yagura and the Third Generation. If the Third Generation wins, Yagura and his men will not have anything to fear."

After hearing what Kisame said, the puffer fish was quite moved.

It seems that we can only give up here. The puffer fish sighed inwardly, Kisame was right, there was no point in staying here any longer.

As long as he doesn't die, there will be a chance for him to make a comeback.

Once he dies here, even if the third generation Mizukage wins, the fourth generation Mizukage will not be him.

If you just retreat...the pufferfish ghost is in a bit of trouble.

Judging from Lin Yuri's attitude, he will never let him leave.

To be honest, facing Yuri Lin who had the help of the god of thunder at this time, the pufferfish ghost was still jealous. If no one was willing to restrain him, it would be difficult to escape from Yuri Lin.

The puffer fish subconsciously glanced at Kisame with an inexplicable meaning, and suddenly made a judgment in his heart.

To contain Lin Juyu Youli means giving up your life and ending the future for him.

And Kisame is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

He was loyal enough to himself and capable. If he hadn't been at the end of his rope at this moment, there would be no need for him to abandon such a useful subordinate.

Even if he thinks so, Fugu Oni ​​doesn't feel much sorry for Kisame. For him, this is when his subordinates are used to be effective.

Subordinates are always just subordinates. If one is sacrificed, another can be substituted at any time.

At least when he comes back later, he will avenge Kisame.

"Kisame, you..."

After making up his mind to let Kisame sacrifice his life for him, Fugu Oni ​​was halfway through his words and couldn't continue.

The blade pierced through his chest, blood staining the blade red.

Kisame held the handle of the sword, his face expressionless.

Then he raised his foot and kicked the pufferfish ghost hard on the chest, causing his body to fly backwards. The big sword in his hand, the same shark, fell off and flew to the ground, letting out a whine.

The pufferfish ghost rolled on the ground, coughing and vomiting blood. He stood up from the ground in a panic and pointed at Kisame with a trembling finger: "Oni, Kisame, what are you doing?"

Disbelief and confusion filled his eyes, and he didn't know why Kisame would betray him.

"Of course I want to kill you. When you are with me, your vigilance will only drop when you are giving orders. I just need to seize that moment."

Kisame's weird-looking shark had no expression on his face. He looked at the blood spraying from the puffer fish's body in his hands, then raised his head and stared at his boss with cold eyes.

He knew everything about Blowfish Demon. Kisame knew clearly when he was most vigilant and when he was weak.

Therefore, he has been waiting for this perfect opportunity to offer his rebellious blow to his boss, the Pufferfish Ghost.

"Then... why did you betray me?"

The pufferfish ghost held his wound and asked in pain.

He couldn't understand what Kisame could gain by betraying him.

"Betrayal? For me, when you betrayed the information of your fellow villager in order to win Yunyin's trust, it is no longer the goal of my belief. What do you think I joined you for?"

Kisame asked nonchalantly.

"Really? I understand. It was you who leaked the information about Kumogakure to Yagura."

What did the puffer fish ghost think of? All the things he didn't understand were understood.

His resentful and ferocious gaze seemed to swallow Kisame alive.

The biggest traitor is right next to him. This is something that the pufferfish ghost never expected.

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

Because Kisame is one of the few cronies who knows about his conspiracy with Kumogakure, once he chooses to betray, the consequences can be imagined.

Kisame was silent, not sure whether it was acquiescence or simply not wanting to defend himself.

But the pufferfish ghost seemed to have recognized it, and laughed heartily. While laughing, he coughed and bleeds, and said in a sneer tone:

"However, I really belong to you, Kisame, to use my head as a certificate of honor. You are better than I imagined, and I did not misunderstand your ability. But don't forget, you are a guy who sells you for glory, You won’t gain anyone’s trust! Haha…ugh!”

He was out of breath, but the pufferfish ghost was still laughing happily.

His words were like a vicious curse, which deeply hurt Kisame's heart and made him clench his fists.

Yes, no matter what the reason is, he is a subordinate of Blowfish Demon, and betraying one's superior is truly disgraceful in the ninja world.

And such a self is not qualified to gain anyone's trust.

Ugly and ridiculous traitor!

He has betrayed the pufferfish ghost now, and he may betray the others in the future.

No one can guarantee that he won't do something similar in the future.

Noticing Lin Yuri's wary gaze, Kisame smiled bitterly in his heart.

As expected, he was suspected.

If you betray your boss, it is natural for you to be wary and disgusted by others.

This is probably also a kind of torture.

But Kisame has no regrets. If he had it to do over again, he would choose the same approach.

He is Kirigakure's ninja, and what the Pufferfish Demon has done has exceeded the limit of what he can endure.

"I don't expect to gain anyone's trust and spend the rest of my life in prison...I am also prepared for this!"

Kisame replied.

"What a pathetic traitor, still hoping for unrealistic fantasies. But even so, don't let me die at Yakura's hands! The only one who can kill me is me!"

The pufferfish ghost knows that the overall situation has been decided and there is nothing he can do to change it.

Kisame deliberately missed his vital point and only seriously injured him without directly killing him. He obviously wanted to capture him alive.

However, he could not allow himself to fall into the hands of Yagura and be executed by his political opponents.

In that case, he would truly die with his eyes open, which would be more humiliating than death.

The pufferfish ghost's eyes suddenly revealed an astonishing determination, and he pulled out the blade that had pierced his body.

Blood spurted out from the wound and was all over the floor.

Death is no longer fearable to him.

His face trembled and twitched with pain.

Holding the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, he stabbed himself in the throat without hesitation.

Coughing blood in the mouth of the puffer ghost, he stared at the startled Kisame with a strange smile, his body tilted and fell to the ground, his lips opened and closed feebly, as if saying something like 'I'll wait for you below'.

◎

The water flow covered the tailed beast jade, sealing it once again.

But because of this, the Third Mizukage gradually felt exhausted, and the chakra in his body was less than one-third of its original size.

On the other hand, Yagura, with the three tails in his body as a support, ninjutsu one after another, chakra and physical strength bottomless.

Consuming the physical strength and chakra of the third Mizukage is Yagura's tactic at the moment.

Only in this way can he ensure that he can defeat the third Mizukage without any chance of failure.

The third Mizukage knew that this couldn't go on, so he immediately used Mizukage to catch up with Yagura, trying to fight at a closer distance.

But Yagura didn't intend to give Mizukage Mizukage this chance.

At their level of strength, it is not so easy to get closer.

Three generations of Mizukage also understand this, but this is the only way to break the situation.

If Yagura is hung in the distance all the time and uses his tailed beast jade to consume his energy and chakra, he will really have no chance of victory.

"Water Release·Water Mirror Technique!"

Yagura hung the stick forward, and a figure exactly the same as Mizukage Mizukage appeared in the mirror. He opened his mouth at the same time as Mizukage Mizukage Mizukage, and a torrent was ejected from his mouth, colliding in the air.

The power of Water Dragon Slash was offset, and the result was an even match.

It can perfectly copy everything about the enemy, including ninjutsu, phantom, and body skills, and its power is equal. If the conditions are sufficient, it can also completely imitate the state of blood succession limit and jinzhuli.

Once the Third Mizukage got close, Yagura used this move to offset the Third Mizukage's attack.

Then he quickly leapt back, regained the distance, and used a large-scale water escape as a feint attack to create a favorable opportunity and secretly began to gather the Tailed Beast Jade.

The Third Mizukage's physical strength was being depleted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he was panting.

We can't delay it any longer, we must solve it quickly! The Third Mizukage's mind was made up.

Yagura's Tailed Beast Jade condensed again and flew towards the Third Mizukage.

Unexpectedly, the Third Mizukage did not use the sealing technique to deal with the tailed beast this time. Instead, he rushed towards the tailed beast and raised his right arm.

"Water Release: Dragon Wrist!"

A snort!

The clothes on his right arm were torn, and the old muscles were knotted. Half of the chakra in his body was concentrated on this move in one breath.

The water dragon condensed on the arm, aiming at the tailed beast jade and slamming it down fiercely.

The tailed beast jade cracked open, and blazing white light shot out from the cracks, making it difficult to open one's eyes.

Yagura's pupils shrank.

The shocking explosion involved him and the Third Mizukage.

The piercing scream and the white light rendered Yagura's eyes and ears useless.

But relying on his instinct for danger, Yagura reluctantly turned his body to the right to avoid the terrifying storm caused by the explosion.

There was pain in my left arm, something was missing.

Yagura grunted and quickly left the explosion area, flying out of the thick dust.

The entire left arm was cut off by some kind of sharp blade, and I don't know where it fell.

Blood kept flying from the wound. Yagura quickly wrapped the wound with his tailed beast coat to stop the bleeding.

Falling onto a relatively flat platform of ruins and standing still, Yagura panted, cold sweat dripping from his face, and stared at the thick dust in front of him.

The third Mizukage walked out of the thick dust. The opponent's right arm was bloody and obviously wasted.

In order for the Tailed Beast Tama to create an environment suitable for his water escape ninjutsu, he did not hesitate to sacrifice an arm in exchange for the opportunity.

With this determination, the murderous aura in the Third Mizukage's body became even stronger.

"You are really messing around, Sandaime."

Yagura took a quick breath and smiled bitterly.

Tailed beast chakra does have a self-healing effect on him, but the self-healing ability has its limits, and it cannot grow an arm out of thin air.

However, he was already prepared to lose this life.

Losing an arm will only reduce his combat effectiveness a little, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

"You brat! I will never allow you to do anything to this village!"

"If you can be so decisive in other aspects, how can I get to where I am today? Only when people force themselves can they show their determination and strength far beyond usual. There is nothing wrong with you and me now. Essentially different.”

Yagura sighed.

"Nonsense! No matter what excuses you use to cover up your mistakes and hurt the village guys, I will never forgive you easily, Yagura!"

The third Mizukage shouted angrily, unable to agree with Yagura's point of view.

"Having said that, since you have lost one arm, you don't have much chakra in your body. Do you still have to lose your left arm to fight with me?"

Yagura asked.

The third Mizukage's face was filled with uncertainty. Yagura was more difficult to deal with than he imagined.

He originally thought that the blow just now could severely damage Yagura, but he didn't expect that it only took away an arm.

How to defeat Yagura has become a difficult problem for the Third Mizukage at this moment.

"Yakura, have you forgotten that we exist?"

At this time, as a voice sounded, several figures fell next to the Third Mizukage, looking at Yagura with the same hatred.

The few ninjas who appeared were naturally the senior officials who had been hiding aside to watch the battle.

Some of them are Yagura's supporters and believe that Yagura must have a reason for doing this. Some are neutrals and are in a wait-and-see state.

However, those high-level executives who rejected Yakura or approached the puffer ghost saw that Mizukage Mizukage was about to lose, so they would not help Mizukage Mizukage again.

At this time, it was just the right time to jump out while the Third Mizukage and Yagura were both hurt.

"It's so rare. Do the rats in the gutter want to come out for air and see the sunshine outside?"

Yagura said this, completely ignoring these guys.

Although these people and the Third Mizukage rushed forward, even with the help of the Three-Tails, he would most likely end up in despair.

But they only stood up now when he and the Third Mizukage were both hurt. They had bad intentions and had ulterior motives.

The Third Mizukage also knew that these high-level officials had their own thoughts, but the most important thing now was to control Yagura and let Kirigakure stabilize.

"Be careful of Feng Da's tongue. We will not let you succeed in your attempt to violently control Kirigakure."

A high-level official said solemnly.

Yagura did not answer this time, but looked around.

At some point, the steps of the ruins were filled with people, and they surrounded the place heavily.

A large number of Kirigakure ninjas gathered here, all with blood on their bodies and disgraced faces. They had obviously gone through a hard battle and came here to provide support.

Seeing this scene, the Third Mizukage felt truly relieved.

If these people here want to suppress Yagura, it is still a bit risky, and they may even have to pay a heavy price.

But there are more than a thousand elite Kirigakure ninjas gathered at this moment. Even if Yagura completely frees the three tails at this time, they can easily suppress them.

"Yakura, let's take it without a fight. Your attempt to control the village by force has failed. Since you have become Sanwei Jinchuriki, out of consideration for the future of the village, I will spare your life."

The third Mizukage made a promise.

It was also his last forgiveness.

If Yagura doesn't cherish this opportunity, he can only destroy him and the three tails together.

In the future, when the three tails are resurrected, they will look for the jinchūriki again.

Yagura lowered his head so that no one could see his expression.

"The third generation, until now, is there any possibility for me to turn back?"

of course not.

He just wanted to use the riots to eliminate the Blood Mist faction in the village, end the rule of the third Mizukage, and push himself to the position of the Fourth Mizukage.

Even so, Kirigakure's crisis has not been resolved.

Because the supporters behind the Blood Mist Sect have already been determined to be the great names and great nobles of the Kingdom of Water.

Their sanctions on Kirigakure's military expenditure were the culprit that created Kirigakure's chaos.

If he doesn't change this situation, Kirigakure's tragedy at the moment will continue to happen again in the future.

He has already felt the limitations and disadvantages of the one-country-one-village system established by the first Hokage Senju Hashirama.

Now that he has decided to join forces with Shiraishi, Yagura knows that Kirigakure will only have to go to black in the future to find a suitable way out for Kirigakure.

After the blood mist incident, he could no longer believe the daimyo and nobles of the Kingdom of Water.

Those who use such despicable methods to deal with Kirigakure Village, which has protected the safety of the Water Kingdom for decades, are the ones who deserve the most damn!

"Stubborn?"

Yagura was still resisting up to this point, which made the Third Mizukage take a deep breath, and then waved his hand at Yagura.

He wanted to defeat Yagura with the human sea tactic.

However, after he gave the order, none of the surrounding Kirigakure ninjas took any action, and just stared at him silently.

It was at this time that the Third Mizukage realized something was wrong.

"you……"

Seeing the indifferent eyes of these people, the third generation Mizukage had a look of disbelief on his face, and a ridiculous idea appeared in his heart.

These people...are Yagura's subordinates?

How can it be?

How could Yagura have so many supporters?

Several senior officials standing with the Third Mizukage also had panicked expressions on their faces, especially when they saw a few familiar faces among the Kirigakure ninjas, they looked as if they had seen a ghost.

"When did you forget their faces, Third Generation-sama?"

Yagura asked the Third Mizukage for answers in a lamenting tone.

"W-what?"

The Third Mizukage was startled.

I saw a Kirigakure ninja stand up from the ranks and asked the Third Mizukage: "Mizukage-sama, do you still remember me?"

"Are you... Nanjonin? Didn't you die in the line of duty two years ago?"

The Third Mizukage looked at the Kirigakure Jōnin in disbelief.

The opponent was a powerful Jonin of Kirigakure Village. He was once the captain of the Kirigakure Anbu. However, unfortunately, he died in a solo S-class mission two years ago. It is said that even his body was found in the capital. Not here.

For this reason, the Third Mizukage was still sad for a while.

"It's not that I died in the line of duty, but that I was set up in a trap by the people of the Blood Mist Sect. Without the assistance of Yagura Jounin, I would probably have died like Ringo Jounin in this dirty political struggle without any reason." Alright."

Nanjonin looked at the Third Mizukage with complicated eyes.

It was the other party's blind connivance and putting the overall situation first, which led to the growth of the Blood Mist Sect. The village was already riddled with holes, but they still tried to use compromise to save it.

When Yagura was preparing to launch a coup, he and many of his "dead companions" agreed.

It cannot be established without destruction, especially now that the combat effectiveness of the ninja villages in various countries has been greatly reduced due to war. Even if a civil war breaks out in Kirigakure, it will be difficult for the ninja villages from other countries to intervene.

If this opportunity is missed and he wants to launch a coup in the future to eliminate the Blood Mist Sect, Kirigakure will not only bear internal pressure, but also even more terrifying external pressure.

The third Mizukage's face was stunned. He never expected that the Jonin who loved the village would be saved by Yagura and become Yagura's supporter.

"Most of the Blood Mist Sect in the village has been wiped out, and the rest are victims who don't know the truth and were blinded by the Blood Mist Sect. They just need to be recruited. It's you who lost, Third Generation."

Following Minami Jounin's words, the Third Mizukage seemed to have been severely traumatized in his heart, coughing violently on the spot.

Why does this happen? The third Mizukage kept asking his own heart.

But no matter how he guessed, he couldn't get an answer that satisfied him.

Is the shadow that has lost the support of the people really the shadow of the village?

The third Mizukage, who already looked old, looked even older now.

Seeing the struggle on the third Mizukage's face, Yagura did not relax his vigilance.

At this time, the third generation Mizukage who fell into inner doubt was the most terrifying.

"Mizukage-sama, don't listen to their nonsense, you are the orthodox in the village. Let these rebels gain the orthodoxy of the village, Kirigakure is the real end, there is no need to give empathy to these traitors."

A senior executive spoke earnestly to dissuade the Third Mizukage from continuing to fight.

"That's right. No matter what, Mizukage-sama, your purpose from the beginning was for the good of the village. But no matter what, betraying Mizukage-sama is tantamount to betraying the village. They just want to use this despicable psychological tactic to make you It’s just that I lost my fighting spirit.”

Many Kirigakure ninjas were glaring angrily at the senior officials who kept fanning the flames in the ears of the Third Mizukage.

The fact that Kirigakure Village has become like this cannot be separated from the high-level officials of the Blood Mist Sect.

The other senior officials who do not understand the truth can be forgiven, but for these senior officials who have been vigorously insisting on the implementation of the blood mist policy, death is not enough to apologize!

Just when they couldn't contain the anger in their hearts and were about to rush forward, a powerful old voice sounded in the field:

"Stop it all. How long do you plan to continue this farce? Look at how the village has been disrupted by you people?"

Everyone turned to look and saw an old man holding a snake-shaped crutch standing in the middle of the field.

On the top of the crutch is a ferocious snake head with sharp teeth and blood-red eyes. The strange gaze swept over each of the Kirigakure ninjas, bringing them great pressure.

That crutch looked like some kind of living creature.

This old man is none other than Yuanshi, the most respected elder in Wuyin Village.

A legendary figure from Kirigakure who once accompanied the first Mizukage on his expeditions to the north and south.

Many things about his rumors cannot be accurately investigated.

But it is said that the second-generation Mizukage Kiden Gengetsu also placed a high degree of trust in him.

However, as the Third Mizukage came to power, he gradually withdrew from the political stage. Unless something big happened, he was basically invisible.

"Master Yuan..."

The third Mizukage looked at Yuanshi with complicated eyes.

"How about putting an end to this farce? As an old man, I really don't want to move."

Genshi looked at Yagura and gave him advice.

The current situation is quite clear, Yakura has an absolute advantage, and Mizukage Mizukage, who has suffered a double blow both mentally and physically, will lose only sooner or later.

Continuing to fight has no meaning except increasing the number of casualties.

Yagura nodded. His purpose was just to delay the Third Mizukage, preventing him from freeing up his hands to deal with the reformist ninjas, causing the plan to change.

Otherwise, he would really have to ask Shiraishi to suppress the Third Mizukage together with him.

However, Yagura did not want to use the assistance provided by Shiraishi unless it was absolutely necessary. This is always an internal matter within Kirigakure, and Shiraishi's existence is more like a kind of insurance.

However, now that most of the people of the Blood Mist Sect have been wiped out, there are only some residual forces left, which is no longer a cause for concern.

The Third Mizukage's position at this time does not seem so important.

Besides, he didn't want to offend Master Yuan.

The Reformist faction and the Blood Mist faction are not all the forces in Wuyin Village. There are also those conservative forces who have not participated in the struggle between the two factions. There is a faint shadow of Yuanshi behind the scenes.

Genshi came to dissuade him and told everyone present in disguise that the position of the Fourth Mizukage belonged to Yagura.

"Master Yuan, you can't let Yagura go so easily! He is disturbing the peace of the village!"

A high-level executive suddenly blurted out this sentence. He knew what the result of Yakura's ascension was. Those high-level officials who supported the blood mist policy in the past will definitely be liquidated afterwards.

As soon as the senior executive finished shouting, the snake-shaped crutch in Master Yuan's hand disappeared.

A light yellow snake with red eyes wrapped around the high-level ninja's body, and bit the high-level ninja's neck at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

The high-ranking ninja quickly covered his neck, but was horrified to find that his body fell limply to the ground.

He stretched out his hand, trying to ask for help: "Master Yuan, I..."

The palm began to dissolve and turned into a black oily body.

Then the arms, the body, the limbs, the head.

In the end, where the senior executive stood, there was only a pool of sticky black oil, and some white bone residue with black bubbles.

"I am old, but my eyes are not blind. You who colluded with Yunyin and tried to get involved in the governance of the village really deserve death!"

Master Yuan was muttering to himself, ignoring everyone's slightly horrified looks.

When several other high-level officials saw this scene, they ran away without saying a word, fearing that they would be liquidated by the Yuan Master in one second at night.

A slender shadow rushed out, and the little yellow snake with red eyes caught up with them at lightning speed, killing one person directly, turning the other person's body into thick black oil.

"Stop them and don't let any of them go!"

Yagura commanded the surrounding Kirigakure ninjas. They swarmed up and surrounded the remaining senior officials of the Blood Mist Sect. Soon, those senior officials lost their voice.

Facing thousands of ninja troops, they are no match at all.

In the final analysis, it was only because of his senior qualifications that he got into the high-level position. The strength is there, but it is not as powerful as imagined. Losing the help of three generations of Mizukage is just a stubborn resistance.

Yagura felt relieved when he saw that all the top leaders of the Blood Mist Sect were under control. Cutting off the grass requires eradicating the roots, and none of these guys can be spared.

The dark clouds in the sky also dispersed, revealing a clear sky, shining on the village.

But seeing most of the village covered in smoke and blood... Yagura had a headache.

During the battle, all kinds of large-scale water escape ninjutsu with amazing destructive power were released at will, and the tailed beast jade was also one after another, without taking care of the village environment at all. When will Kirigakure Village be rebuilt? In short, it will not be something that can be done in the short term.

However, in terms of results, it should be considered a success.

In this violent way, the fourth generation of Mizukage, who took office as the fourth generation of Mizukage, plunged the entire Kirigakure into an unprecedented horrific civil war. Although it only lasted for half a day, there were not a few Kirigakure ninjas who died for it.

Yagura already had a premonition that his international reputation would become infamous and despicable. Because he was the only one of the Five Shadows to take office through a violent coup.
