Chapter 323: What is the King of Blame?
In the secret letter, the Third Mizukage did not clearly mention the fact that he was controlled by Uchiha Madara using illusion.
The Third Mizukage also agrees with the concept that "family scandals should not be publicized" and will not expose family scandals to the Third Hokage of Konoha.
The third Mizukage only mentioned a few "facts" in the secret letter - Uchiha Madara secretly invaded Kirigakure Village and intended to attack Mizukage, but was eventually repelled by Kirigakure ninjas!
The real truth will damage the image of Kirigakure Village.
False lies are detrimental to the Third Mizukage's plan.
Therefore, the Third Mizukage chose the description method of "nine truths and one falsehood".
He can guarantee that most of the things mentioned in the secret letter are the truth.
Has Madara Uchiha invaded Kirigakure Village? Of course!
Did he attack the Third Mizukage? This is also nonsense!
Was Madara Uchiha repelled by the Kirigakure ninja?
The Third Mizukage is not very clear about this.
Uchiha Madara's control over his genjutsu was quite strong, and its effects lasted for more than ten years.
The Third Mizukage didn't know how he got rid of Uchiha Madara's genjutsu control...
but he knew that there was a high probability that Uchiha Madara was not repelled by the other ninjas of Kirigakure...
even the Third Mizukage was The "plaything" in Uchiha Madara's hand, the other Kirigakure ninjas may not even be able to reach the level of "plaything" in front of this legendary ninja of Uchiha... But as the third generation Mizukage broke away from the control of illusion, Uchiha
Madara The "invasion plan" to Kirigakure Village was indeed bankrupt!
At the same time, in order to increase the credibility of the contents of the secret letter, the Third Mizukage also revealed another "fact" in the letter - he was severely injured by Uchiha Madara's Sharingan!
This is indeed true.
Sarutobi Hiruzen put down the "Mizukage Secret Message" in his hand, and his gray-white eyebrows knitted together involuntarily. It was obvious that the information revealed in the secret letter had a great psychological impact on him.
'Kirigakure Village was invaded by Uchiha Madara, and the third Mizukage was seriously injured...' '
Some time ago, Ohnoki of Iwagakure Village and Ai of Kumogakure Village disappeared one after another, and their whereabouts are unknown...' '
In the initial stage of the war, Sunagakure Village The Third Mizukage also disappeared inexplicably...'
In the secret letter, the Third Mizukage connected these seemingly unrelated things, but in fact they were indeed unrelated.
So much "bad news" from the Third Kage did bring a lot of psychological pressure to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
This is not just because the Third Mizukage describes "objective facts".
It was also because Sarutobi Hiruzen knew another piece of information - Uchiha Madara did not die in the battle at the Valley of the End as rumored by the outside world. Not only did he survive until now, but he also fought in the Third Ninja War. Been active for a while!
In the previous battle at Kannabi Bridge in the Land of Grass, Madara Uchiha even dispatched Uchiha Kage, the "dirty soil ninja" who had come back from the dead, to openly attack Konoha's two most dazzling "stars" in the three wars!
Although Nara Langui and Namikaze Minato later locked the location of Uchiha Madara, and successfully killed the legendary ninja, and brought the other party's body back to Konoha.
Sarutobi Hiruzen even used Fire Release to burn Uchiha Madara's body himself.
But you must know that in the original battle at the Valley of the End, Madara Uchiha was also killed by Senju Hashirama, and his body was even studied by Senju Tobirama for a period of time.
But that's it, Uchiha Madara is "resurrected from the dead"!
As early as when he burned Uchiha Madara's body, Sarutobi Hiruzen had worried about whether Uchiha Madara would be "resurrected" again.
Now the secret letter sent by the Third Mizukage undoubtedly confirmed his worries.
Madara Uchiha was not only resurrected, but he also took action against Kirigakure!
According to the speculation in the letter, Uchiha Madara not only took action against Kirigakure, but also Iwagakure, Kumogakure and even Sunagakure!
This kind of behavior is undoubtedly in line with Konoha's stereotype of Uchiha Madara - the
evil Uchiha ancestor!
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't think that the Third Mizukage would make a joke in the letter. The other party's description was still very credible...at least it didn't seem suspicious.
What's more, if you want to quietly assassinate the Third Kazekage, the Third Tsuchikage, and the Third Raikage...
Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it, but he didn't think any normal ninja could do this.
Even if he joins forces with Sansho Hanzo from the Land of Rain, it's impossible to do it!
Assassination, almost all ninjas can do it.
In Sarutobi Hiruzen's impression, the only ninja who has mastered the ability of "assassination" to the pinnacle is the second-generation Tsuchikage Muashi of Iwagakure Village!
But even so, in the previous war, the second-generation Tsuchikage Mu also fought with the second-generation Mizukage Kiden Gengetsu and died together!
If you want to assassinate a powerful ninja of "Shadow" level silently, even "Shadow" can't do it!
But if it were Uchiha Madara, the legend of the ninja world who was as famous as the first-sama and only slightly inferior to the first-sama in terms of strength... Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that it made sense
.
The only thing that puzzles the Third Hokage is why Madara Uchiha is obsessed with the Third Kage in each village?
If the assassination of the Third Kazekage can be attributed to Uchiha Madara's desire to trigger a war.
But now that the war has started, why does Uchiha Madara continue to assassinate the third Tsuchikage, the third Raikage and even the third Mizukage?
'An unknown conspiracy? '
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes focused on the secret message scroll in his hand.
The Third Mizukage did not mention the reason why Uchiha Madara assassinated him in his letter, but he also speculated that the other party might have some conspiracy.
Having successively assassinated the "shadows" of the four great ninja villages of Sand, Earth, Thunder, and Mist, Uchiha Madara must be secretly stirring up some big conspiracy that affects the entire ninja world!
Moreover, in the secret letter, the Third Mizukage also pointed out one point deliberately:
The Third Kazekage, the Third Tsuchikage, and the Third Raikage have all been killed by Uchiha Madara, and the Third Mizukage was also seriously injured. Dear Lord, the Third Hokage, you Do you think Uchiha Madara will sneak into Konoha and launch an assassination operation against you?
As for why Uchiha Madara placed Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, at the end...
on the one hand, it's because Konoha's overall strength is indeed ranked first among the five great ninja villages.
On the other hand, it is also because Sarutobi Hiruzen's overall strength ranks first among the five major third-generation Kage!
The hardest bone must be left last!
'snort! ' After thinking about this, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly snorted unhappily in his heart.
He felt that the Third Mizukage was a bit too alarmist!
Although Sarutobi Hiruzen is not sure how the Third Mizukage escaped Uchiha Madara's assassination.
But what the Third Mizukage can do, can't he, the Third Hokage, do it?
Well...
After reading through the Mizukage secret letter, Sarutobi Hiruzen also recognized the inference that Uchiha Madara would take action against Konoha.
After all, he was from Hiruzen Sarutobi's perspective.
Uchiha Madara doesn't "know" how to attack Konoha.
This historical undead has already attacked Konoha!
Even leaving aside the fact that the opponent summoned the Nine-Tails and attacked Konoha before he "fake death" for the first time.
During the three battles, Uchiha Madara had already attacked Konoha!
Although he was not targeting the Third Hokage of Konoha that time, but Namikaze Minato and Nara Langui...
But this made Sarutobi Hiruzen even more convinced that Uchiha Madara was indeed planning something secretly. guess.
'So what does this undead Uchiha want to do? '
Sarutobi Hiruzen had one idea after another in his mind, and then he rejected it one after another.
After thinking to no avail, he simply suppressed the distracting thoughts that kept popping up in his heart and turned to look at the four Kirigakure ninjas who were still silently waiting for his response.
'Although I have heard of the name of Blood Mist Village more than once, these four ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village don't seem to have any of the crazy and cruel aura of Blood Mist...' 'Even the so-called Blood Mist
Village It was Zabuza Momochi, the demon who massacred all the students in his class, and he didn't look as scary as the rumors said. '
' Kirigakure's... future?
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes narrowed slightly for a moment, but he did not make any move, but slowly put down the secret message in his hand .
"Messenger of Kirigakure Village, I agree in principle to sign an armistice agreement with you Kirigakure."
Sarutobi Hiruzen said methodically.
His words instantly attracted the attention of Mito Kadoyan and Koharu who were sleeping next to him.
No matter how simple these two senior elders are, they still don't like war.
The two of them had just read through the armistice agreement drawn up by Kirigakure Village. Most of the content proposed by the other party was acceptable to Konoha, but there were some things... Fortunately, Sarutobi
Hiruzen's words calmed the two elders. heart of.
"But regarding the specific details of the armistice agreement, we still need to negotiate and discuss it."
After hearing the words of the Third Hokage, Mito Kado and Koharu nodded in agreement.
right!
Even though Kirigakure Village has lost so much resources and strength since this battle, Konoha has also lost a lot of resources!
Since it was the Kirigakure Village that initiated the peace agreement, Konoha should naturally put forward some conditions in the agreement!
At the very least, Kirigakure should stop trying to get the Three-Tails back!
When it comes to tailed beasts, Mito Katoen, Koharu Koharu and Sarutobi Hiruzen are naturally on a united front.
"Of course, matters related to the war must not be decided carelessly."
Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen finally spoke and showed a positive attitude, Goji Yagura inevitably showed a hint of joy on his little face.
"I wonder how long it will take for the Hokage-sama to give a reply?
"The Third Mizukage-sama is still waiting for our reply, especially... the matter mentioned in the secret letter. "
Secret message?
Mito Kadoen and Koharu, who had transferred to the dormitory, immediately looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen. They didn't know what was mentioned in Mizukage's secret letter. Sarutobi
Hiruzen waved his hands to the two old friends and signaled Let them be patient.
He did plan to inform Mito Kado and Koharu of the transfer of the contents of Mizukage's secret message later, saying that he would have to pull Danzo Shimura out of his roots later... But in front of
Kirigakure In front of the envoy, it was not easy for Hiruzen Sarutobi to hand over the Mizukage secret letter to the two elders for review.
"As the envoy said, this is a major war matter after all, and I can't give an accurate response. "
Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a kind smile and spoke in an official tone very skillfully.
"After the discussion is over, I will definitely send someone to inform you as soon as possible.
"I hope Hokage-sama's discussion can be faster. " "
Of course Goju Yagura knew that the other party was just pushing the envelope, but he couldn't force too much, so he just said lightly.
"We Kirigakure not only initiated contact with Konoha, but also sent envoys to three other villages at the same time.
"The Third Generation Master not only hopes to stop the war, but also hopes to convene a new Five Shadows Conference!"
Second update.
emmm, good night everyone
