Whether it is to weaken the power of the Kingdom of Rain or to consume the number of Konoha ninjas, the goal has almost been achieved.

Wait until next March, it will be the turn of the Fire Nation, the ultimate goal.

When the time comes, they will detour to Jiraiya of the Land of Grass and encircle Iwagakure, causing further heavy losses to Konoha. Such a strategy can be said to be perfect.

Of course, one must also be wary of the Third Hokage who is in charge of Konoha.

Once Orochimaru is defeated, maybe the Hokage himself will go to the front line in person. In order to contain the third generation Hokage, I am afraid that at least two thousand ninjas will be needed.

"Since there are no objections, let's adjourn the meeting. Even if victory is imminent, don't relax your vigilance against Konoha. According to my intelligence, the leader of Konoha's roots, Shimura Danzo, has lurked into the Land of Rain, allowing the Sunagakure team patrolling outside to fight

Pay full attention."

"yes."

All the superiors were shocked.

Indeed, at times like this, we must not be careless and allow the enemy to find opportunities to take advantage of us.

"In addition, when we attack Konoha next March, I will initiate a high-level meeting to determine the candidates for the Fourth Kazekage based on your performance and final contribution during the general attack. I ask several candidate Jonin to be fully prepared.

"

At the meeting, several Jonin who were candidates for the Fourth Kazekage couldn't help showing excitement in their eyes, and they also became wary of the other candidates.

"Finally, I would like to remind you that private fights are not allowed, which will lead to the delay of the general offensive plan in March next year. Otherwise, his qualifications as a Kazekage candidate will be revoked immediately."

After Chiyo said these words seriously, he left the conference room with his younger brother Ebizo.

Compared with who will win the position of the Fourth Kazekage, Chiyo pays more attention to how to weaken Konoha and make profits for Sunagakure as a whole.

Therefore, private fights between candidates competing for the position of Kazekage will be strictly prohibited. Once they occur, the offender will be dealt with strictly and the Kazekage's candidacy will be deprived.

Kirigakure Village.

In the village filled with thick fog, blood lingers for a long time.

In Mizukage's office, Yagura reported on his work in recent months.

A total of thirty-two suspected reformist ninjas were executed, and seventeen of them were being brutally interrogated by the hunting troops.

"Yakura, your personality has become more and more irritable recently."

The third Mizukage said to Yagura.

Although his calm and harmless baby face gives people an air of childishness and credulity, those who know him well know that he is an executioner who kills without blinking an eye.

The most terrifying blade in the hands of the third generation Mizukage.

Compared to the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, he does more evil things.

He was the first big figure assassinated by the reformists.

Some people even suspected that it was this harmless baby-faced man, Gotachibana Yagura, who guided the blood mist policy and brutally killed his colleagues in the village. In order to eliminate dissidents, he was promoted to the position of the fourth Mizukage.

However, compared to the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who formed gangs and developed their power everywhere, Yagura has always been the deputy of the third generation Mizukage. Although he is very famous, the strength of the ninjas gathered under his subordinates is far less than that of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

The power of everyone gathered together.

Even Kirigakure's pursuit troops were not in charge of him.

It can be seen that the third generation Mizukage himself may also be wary of it.

Therefore, many people also hold a wait-and-see attitude towards Yagura's successful rise to the position of the fourth Mizukage.

If he could take a step back instead of standing at the closest distance to the third generation Mizukage, he would have more room to develop his power.

The closer you are to the third generation Mizukage, the more important you are to the Mizukage himself, and the same applies to vigilance and vigilance.

"Sorry, Mizukage-sama, this is all because the reformists are too chaotic. Only by suppressing them as soon as possible can the situation within the village be stabilized."

Yagura replied calmly.

He also knew that his temper had become increasingly irritable recently.

Of course, it was not because of the fight between the Reformists and the Blood Mist Sect, but because of another matter.

In so many years, this was the first time that I had been threatened by a mere rebel.

Although he had the urge to laugh or cry, but thinking about it carefully, that bastard was too despising his existence.

If this was taken seriously, it would be difficult not to be angry.

"How are they doing at Watermelon Mountain?"

The third Mizukage asked.

Yagura pondered for a moment and immediately responded to the question: "Ever since Kushimaru Kushimaru and Nori Jinpachi died in the line of duty, their power has been fully taken over by the people headed by the Suikoyama Fugu Demon. Although they also obey the orders of the Mizukage

Sir, but I think it is still necessary to be vigilant."

"I will handle this matter myself. Regarding the master of the thunder knife, has anyone chosen it?"

"We have not found an adapter yet. There are very few ninjas in Kirigakure Village who are proficient in Thunder Release. They also need to be able to perfectly match the power of the Thunder Sword. In recent years, there is only one Yuri Lin."

After hearing Yagura's report, the Third Mizukage let out a sigh of regret.

Among the seven ninja swords, the attack power of Thunder Sword and Kiga is one of the best, coupled with its fast cast and huge range, it is not a problem to easily defeat more than a hundred Chunin as long as you hold the Thunder Sword in hand.

"In addition, regarding the two knives, the Long Knife, the Stitch, and the Explosive Knife, and the Spraying Knife, I am also asking the underground black market to get in touch with Konoha's traitorous ninja Hinata Ayane as soon as possible. But the progress is a bit slow."

"Whether it is using force to make the enemy submit, or using money to redeem them, bringing the two ninja swords back to the village as soon as possible is a top priority."

"yes."

He promised to bring the two ninja swords back to the village as soon as possible, but Mizukage himself probably knew very well that it would not be possible in a short time, so he did not give Yagura a deadline.

Yagura left the Mizukage office and headed to a long-abandoned water tower.

At the bottom of the water tower, there is a huge and complicated sewer. Occasionally, Yagura will meet his subordinates here.

"Lord Yagura, this is the information sent back from the Kingdom of Demons."

Coming out of the wall is an advanced latent ninjutsu. Even with the sensing ninjutsu, it is difficult to sense his presence.

He has always been a liaison between Yagura and the others.

Yagura took the scroll, and the man blended into the wall again and disappeared.

Yagura put away the scroll and just walked out of the water tower door when two people walked towards him.

Yagura's face was expressionless, as if he had known for a long time that he was being followed.

"Yakura, you still like to do things secretly. You can deceive the third generation, but you can't hide it from me. Don't compete with me for the position of the fourth generation Mizukage, otherwise you will die miserably."

One of them openly threatened Yagura, his teeth were cracked, and the smell of blood hit his face.

His body is quite strong, with long orange hair that reaches down to his waist, and he carries a huge bandaged ninja sword on his back.

That is the great sword, Samehada, among the seven ninja swords.

The person in front of me is also the current holder of the Great Sword, Samehada, Suguayama Fugu Oni.

Among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, he is a firm supporter of the Blood Mist Sect.

Although they are both members of the Blood Mist Sect, he and Yagura have many problems with each other.

Whether in terms of reputation or strength, Yagura is a powerful jounin that is not weaker than him, or even stronger than him.

Moreover, according to his investigation, Yagura has secretly cultivated a force for unknown purposes.

But it is not difficult to guess that it is the power that has been prepared for a long time for the position of the fourth generation Mizukage.

"Have you grown to this point by absorbing the power of Kurihara Kushimaru and Murashi Jinpachi? Fugu Demon, don't forget, you were my defeated enemy in the past."

Yagura sighed softly, then raised his head and stared at the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost with his purple, emotionless eyes.

The sword, Samehada, flew towards Yagura.

Faced with this monster-like attack, Yagura remained calm and used the long stick with a hook on the back to intercept the large sword Samehada and stood still in place.

"Indulging in past victories, if this is your excuse for ultimate failure, I allow you to say such words at this time, Yagura."

The Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost laughed, and its sharp teeth seemed to be stained with blood, making it look extremely cruel and ferocious.

"boring."

"Who is this boring person? Unlike rats like you who always hide their secret plans, the power in my hands is displayed openly as an upright teacher. If you surrender to me now, I will become the first

After the Fourth Mizukage, I can promise you the position of ANBU Minister. How about it? This position is enough to match your strength."

Watermelon Mountain Fugu Oniya invited Yagura to join his camp with a solemn expression.

As an outstanding representative of the Blood Mist Sect, Yagura must be someone who understands his ambitions.

Although he was defeated by Yagura in the past, for the sake of the position of the Fourth Mizukage, he could ignore past conflicts as long as Yagura could serve him.

In this way, the third generation Mizukage also has surveillance personnel beside him, who can get first-hand information about the village. With the support of other high-level officials, he will become the fourth generation Mizukage in the battle.

An excellent stage for a unique show.

It really made him feel excited and happy.
