Chapter 321 Changes in Kirigakure!
The Kingdom of Water, Kirigakure Village, Mizukage Building.
When the Third Mizukage woke up from his confusion, he felt as if he had had a horrific nightmare that lasted for decades.
Most of the scenes in this nightmare are not very clear, as if they are a memoir tape covered with a thick layer of filters, making it difficult for people to have the feeling of personal experience.
The only clear image, one that was so clear that the Third Mizukage would never forget it, even be unforgettable, was a pair of scarlet eyes.
The bright red pupils, the dark magatama, the famous Sharingan...
The Third Mizukage felt his old and stiff body, twisted his neck with some difficulty, and looked out the window of the Mizukage's office.
The deep and thick white fog enveloped the entire Kirigakure Village, and the simple gray buildings were looming in the fog, as if they had been like this since ancient times.
But as one of the five major villages in the ninja world.
Even if it was daytime, the warm and bright sunshine could not shine into this cold and silent village, and it was even more difficult to dispel the stagnant and pungent smell of blood floating in the sky above Kirigakure.
Looking at the cold, bleak village without a trace of life, the Third Mizukage gritted his teeth and read out the name.
"Uchiha - Madara!"
Decades ago, the first Mizukage Byakuren was running around during the difficult Warring States Period and established the Kirigakure Village from scratch.
After the second-generation Mizukage Kito Genzuki succeeded, he followed the example of the second-generation Hokage Senju Tobirama of Konoha Village and established the ninja school and assassination force of Kirigakure Village. At the same time, he established the secrecy law of Kirigakure Village.
During the period when the Second Mizukage was in place, the comprehensive strength of Kirigakure Village was greatly improved and developed.
Although due to the "Secrecy Law", the people of Kirigakure Village and the Kingdom of Water are separated from each other.
But ninjas are creatures that live in the shadows, and "conserving intelligence" is an instinct engraved in the bones of every ninja.
Overall, the existence of the "Secrecy Law" has not affected the overall strength of Kirigakure Village. It still retains the strength and prestige of one of the five major villages in the ninja world.
However, after the second generation Mizukage was assassinated and the third generation Mizukage succeeded to the throne.
The Kirigakure Village gradually gained a very special name -
"The Blood Mist!"
The third Mizukage pronounced the name sadly, his heart filled with grief and indignation.
In the so-called blood mist, ninjas in the same village regard "killing each other" as a common thing.
Even one of the conditions for graduating from Ninja School is to personally kill a classmate and friend.
The Third Mizukage learned one thing from his broken and messy memory pictures. In the past two years, a "remarkable" "genius" appeared in the ninja school in Kirigakure Village.
During the graduation exam, this "genius" single-handedly killed all the other students from the same village who took the exam. Just after graduation, he received a special title of "Ghost Man" that would shock ordinary people.
As long as they are sane ninjas, they all know the harm that Kijin Momochi Zabuza’s actions will bring:
an entire generation of ninjas in Kirigakure Village died so worthlessly in a small graduation. During the exam!
As the third generation Mizukage, he naturally understands the danger of this incident.
But it is a pity that "he" at that time did not realize the harm this incident caused to Kirigakure Village.
Or rather.
At that time, the "Third Generation Mizukage" didn't care about everyone else in Kirigakure Village.
The huge Kirigakure, one of the five major villages in the ninja world, is actually just a small tool in his hand... The
third generation of Mizukage today can't even remember what happened back then.
He only knew that after the second-generation Mizukage Kito Genzuki-sama was assassinated by the second-generation Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village, he succeeded the third-generation Mizukage, and then... the third-generation Mizukage was controlled by Madara Uchiha using illusions
. ...
How could a normal Mizukage sit back and watch his village turn into the so-called "blood mist"?
Only outsiders would despise the lives of Kirigakure ninjas so much.
For Uchiha Madara, the third generation Mizukage's heart was full of resentment.
But he also knew that he now somehow broke free from Uchiha Madara's genjutsu control. The top priority was not to accuse Uchiha Madara of what he had done.
But to end that cold, cruel, and terrifying era of blood mist!
The first thing to do is to pull Kirigakure Village out of the quagmire of the Third Ninja War!
But when he thinks of the Third War, the Third Mizukage inevitably thinks of the loss of Kirigakure Village.
The Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki, the Three-Tails, the ANBU Minister, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the Kirigakure troops... "Cough-puff!" The
Third
Mizukage coughed heavily, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. , leaving a dazzling stain on the cold floor of Mizukage's office.
This time he coughed up blood, not only because of his anger, but also because of being under the control of illusions for a long time. Madara Uchiha's Yinsha Chakra caused very serious and irreversible damage to the body of the third Mizukage!
Even without seeing a doctor, the Third Mizukage knew that his time was running out.
But until now, the Third Mizukage has no idea of saving himself.
As the "culprit" who caused the Blood Mist.
If you don't take the overall situation into consideration.
The Third Mizukage wants to commit suicide now, and then go to the Pure Land to apologize to Lord Byakuren, Lord Kito Genzuki, and the other ninjas from the same village who died in the Blood Mist Era!
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth very casually, the Third Mizukage shouted outside the office.
"Come here!"
Almost as soon as the words fell, a short ninja pushed in from outside the door.
The third Mizukage recognized the other party's identity.
Tangerine Yagura.
After the previous ANBU Minister Kito Zangetsu "mysteriously disappeared" in Yunokuni, this seemingly short Goju Yagura took over the position of Kito Zangetsu and became another ANBU Minister of Kirigakure Village.
in other words.
Goju Yagura is now the second-in-command of Kirigakure Village!
"Sandaime-sama!"
The first time Gotachibana Yagura entered the Mizukage's office, he knelt on one knee and bowed his head to say hello.
Just at the moment when he lowered his head, Goji Yagura saw the dazzling pool of blood on the floor, and his pupils shrank a little unconsciously.
'Sandaime-sama... coughed up blood? '
A thought flashed through Goju Yagura's mind.
"Yakura, cough..."
The third Mizukage's voice sounded extremely weak, but anyone could hear the firmness in his tone.
"Send a message to the troops stationed in the Country of Waves and ask them to stop the attack completely!
" Send a messenger to Konoha to ask the Third Hokage... for peace!
"It's time for Kirigakure to withdraw from the war!"
Regarding the relationship between Uchiha Madara and the Third Mizukage, the comics did not clearly point out.
However, Uchiha Madara once made it clear that the series of operations in which Kirigakure Village sent ANBU to seal the Three-Tails into Nohara Rin's body were all Uchiha Madara's plans.
If the Third Mizukage is not Uchiha Madara's "doll", it is difficult to explain why Kirigakure Village obeys Uchiha Madara's orders so much.
Regarding the point mentioned in this chapter [the third generation Mizukage was controlled by Uchiha Madara using illusions], everyone can regard it as a secondary design.
In addition, in the book club, I wrote about the connection between Uchiha Madara, Uzumaki Country and Kirigakure Village. Interested book friends can take a look.
