"Lord Hokage!"
Tsunade saw Uchiha Nan's location, trotted all the way to Uchiha Nan's side, and greeted Uchiha Nan with a smile.
"Tsunade, why are you here?"
Uchiha Nan subconsciously stroked Tsunade's light yellow hair. Tsunade squinted her eyes and enjoyed Uchiha Nan's technique.
"Grandma said that Hokage-sama wanted to invite Uzumaki to book out the entire hotel... so I followed him."
Uchiha Nan was about to say something when he instinctively felt a sense of malice. He looked up and found Uzumaki Mito staring at him.
It’s broken, the house was robbed!
Why are you, Uchiha Nan, so skilled!
He touched Tsunade's hair as soon as they met, what a caring gesture. Uchiha Nan, what did you do to Tsunade behind my back?
"Tsunade, come, sit over here."
Uzumaki Mito grabbed Tsunade's arm, gave Uchiha Nana a vicious look, and sat next to Uchiha Nana, while Tsunade sat on the other side.
Restrain and hold it in!
Uzumaki Mito really wanted to curse now, but she absolutely could not lose her temper in this situation. There were so many Uzumaki clan children watching her. Even if she wanted to question Uchiha Nan, she had to find a private place where no one was around!
When did Tsunade get together with Uchiha Nan, and they became quite close?
Is Uchiha Nan targeting Tsunade or does he want to contact Yangyue through Tsunade? Or does he want both?
No, no. Uchiha Nan would not be so cruel. He must have been attracted by Tsunade's identity. Tsunade is the granddaughter of Hashirama and the pillar of the next generation of the Senju clan... If she just wanted to mend the relationship with the Senju clan, Uzumaki Mito would have nothing to be unhappy about.
The die is cast. Uchiha Kusunoki has become the Hokage, and an excellent one at that. The Senju clan should learn to accept it, accept an Uchiha becoming the Hokage.
Anyway, the Senju clan already has two Hokage, so it’s no big deal if Uchiha has one. As the first Hokage’s bedfellow, Uzumaki Mito knows very well what Hashirama Senju is thinking. Anyone can be Hokage, as long as Konoha can continue to prosper.
I'm just afraid that Uchiha Nan has ulterior motives. Uchiha Nan is such a mean and despicable man. I must not let my guard down!
Uzumaki Mito's brain was working at high speed, trying to figure out Uchiha Nan's intention of contacting Tsunade privately, but there were too many possibilities and she couldn't tell them apart at the moment.
Uchiha Nan ignored Uzumaki Mito. This old woman was always nervous. Didn't he beat her into a pig's head? When two people duel, fists and feet have no eyes, so injuries are inevitable. Other things that offended Uzumaki Mito and caused her to lose a few small targets were not important. Not important.
What a stingy person. Are you still holding a grudge against me now?
Water Country, Mist Village
“Where on earth do these magazines and articles come from!”
"Go check it out for me!!"
Mizuto was roaring in the office. Ever since he came back from the Yugenu Village last time, he had basically broken off relations with the bloodline families in the village. The relationship was getting worse and worse, and there were more and more rumors in the village.
Mizuto is forced by the bloodline family to stop the rumors against the bloodline family and end this ridiculous farce, but some things can't start or end just because you want to.
Mizuto still underestimated the power of rumors. The war had just ended for a year and the village was still licking its wounds. The Hidden Mist Village had not gained anything, and so many people had died. The accumulated resentment had to be vented, and people's hearts were restless, so rumors spread and were out of control.
A series of orders, statements to clarify the rumors, Shuidou did everything he could, but it was all in vain!
Shuidou even went to the Daimyo of the Land of Water to seek help and clarify the rumors.
"Mizukage, are you sure these rumors are false? I heard that someone was too close to the bloodline family, and his entire family was killed by the wandering ninja during a trip."
"It's fake, all fake, spread by someone with ulterior motives. Your Highness, what you said is all coincidence."
"Coincidence... coincidence, okay then. I will help you, Mizukage, to clarify. But next time when I issue a mission, the person who carries it out must not be a ninja from the bloodline family. It's better to be safe than sorry."
"Your Highness, I told you this is a rumor."
"I know, I know, but be careful."
Even though the Daimyo of the Land of Water still helped Mizuto issue a clarification announcement, he still skillfully chose ordinary ninjas to carry out the mission. He also notified a large number of his relatives and brothers not to choose bloody ninjas to do the mission, so as not to implicate themselves. It didn't matter if they died, but his life could not be implicated by them in vain.
Noble marriages are commonplace. Everyone cherishes their lives and doesn't want to be implicated by others. Even the daimyo are taboo about this. I'm afraid it's better to be careful about rumors about the bloodline family. If you can avoid bloodline ninjas, don't do it.
Everything that could be done was done. Under the statement that was intended to cover up the truth, the rumor only disappeared on the surface, but it intensified in private. More and more versions were spread, even to the point of being exaggerated that if a bloodline ninja was hired, the whole family would suddenly die inexplicably. The scope became wider and wider, and the impact became greater and greater.
Merchants, nobles. Although it is easier for ninjas from bloodline families to complete tasks, using bloodline ninjas will cause their entire family to be cursed. So they have to think carefully and try not to use bloodline ninjas if they can.
If it doesn't work, just put on a few more shells and spend money to hire people to post tasks and hire bloodline ninjas.
Due to a series of actions taken by Mizuto, the living environment of the Bloodline Family in the Hidden Mist Village did not improve but became worse. Even the income of the Bloodline Ninjas began to decrease.
The bloodline family thought that Shuidou was secretly dealing with them again!
"It's over."
Shuidou was the only one left in the office. He looked at the pile of articles on the desk with an embarrassed expression.
"Human Rights Report of the Kirigakure Village Bloodline Family"
"Kill that Kaguya clan member"
"Twenty Years a Slave"
The rumors were getting more and more intense and could not be stopped from spreading. The nobles and merchants were scared to death, fearing to be implicated, and began to consciously refuse to let the bloodline ninjas carry out missions, touching the bloodline ninjas' purse. This made Mizuto uneasy. Ninjas risked their lives to carry out missions, just to make money.
If you can't make money, and everyone's life is hard now, what's the point of enduring it? Mizuto feels that he might be attacked by a desperate bloodline ninja even when he walks on the street.
No one knew when this kind of inflammatory article spread in the Hidden Mist Village. Mizuto was really scared. He felt like he was sitting on a powder keg that could blow him up at any time.
Should we impose martial law on the entire village?
Shuidou was still hesitating. The situation was already tense enough. If he put the whole village under martial law, it would only make the bloodline families even crazier... and even join forces to rebel and coup. But they had this idea in mind. If he took the initiative... would it be better? These bloodline families would not give up, damn it!
The bloodline family is a group of rebels!
Shuidou's face turned grim, and he couldn't help but recall the past.
At the beginning, I was the second-generation Mizukage in Lady Suiren's mind. Not only did he bring me to the Five Kage Summit, he also personally patted me on the shoulder.
"I am old, you will encourage me!"
It’s just that Lady Suiren died suddenly, and Hozuki Gengetsu joined forces with the two bloodline families to snatch away my position as the Second-generation Mizukage!
But... you didn't expect it, right? Hozuki Hanazuki... I was the winner in the end. You relied on the bloodline family and took away the bloodline family's elite Dust Release and Jinchūriki. The fires in Iwagakure and Mist Village had almost consumed the bloodline family's power. I, who had been sitting on the bench in Mist Village, had the last laugh!
His position as the Sandaime Mizukage must not be taken away by these rebels from the Bloodline Family again!
We really have to be on guard. A desperate dog will jump over the wall.
The Hozuki clan was originally an esoteric family. They were good at water escape techniques, and the water transformation technique could liquefy the body of a ninja. This was a unique skill passed down from generation to generation in the Hozuki clan. In recent years, children born in the Hozuki clan have the ability to turn into water at birth, so they began to claim that they were a bloodline family, and they hooked up with the Kaguya clan and the Mizunotsuki clan.
The main fighting force of the Gui Deng clan was buried on the battlefield together with the dead man Gui Deng Huan Yue. Now the remaining fighting force in the family is just a few big cats and small cats, so there is no need to worry.
The Mizunotsuki clan, who are good at ice escape, also suffered heavy losses.
The Kaguya clan also suffered heavy losses, but the fighting power of this clan should not be underestimated.
The three families are badly hurt and can't fight against me at all. I just have to be careful and slowly eliminate them. Otherwise, if the three families join forces to rebel, the Hidden Mist Village will also be badly hurt.
Shuidou sat in a chair and calmed down, thinking carefully, and felt that it was not appropriate to fight at this time. It was better to appease the people first and wait for three to five years.
But if this group of rebels really want to rebel, then it's not his fault. Sometimes, only by cutting off one's own arms and legs can one survive.
The Ghost Lantern Clan
In a room, several high-level members of the Hozuki clan, the Mizunotsuki clan, and the Kaguya clan met together. Recently, these bloodline families have had a really hard time in the Hidden Mist Village.
The rumors are getting more and more intense. We have tried every possible means to clarify the situation, but the effect is nothing more than adding fuel to the fire.
The Bloodline Family's quota of hired tasks has declined significantly. The family can lose anything except money if the income of the family members decreases!
Now all kinds of small essays have appeared in the village. To be honest, they are happy in their hearts. That bastard Shuidou just wants to get rid of the donkey after it has done its job. He spread rumors, cut the funding of the bloodline family, and exclude them step by step until they are all wiped out.
Now finally someone has spoken up for them. Their bloodline family has made contributions to the Hidden Mist Village and shed blood for it!
Most of the family's elite members have died for the Hidden Mist Village, and now they want to get rid of them. It's simply unfair!
But the reality of the impact caused by the short essays is not so good. The family's strength has declined significantly, funds have been cut, and income has fallen. Just when they need to recuperate, the emotions of the only remaining combat-capable ninjas in the family have been aroused by those short essays, and they clamor to fight to the death with the water fighting fish.
At this time, their bloodline family must unite and face it together.
"What do you think of these articles? Someone is deliberately spreading them to make people in the family uneasy."
Gui Deng Taiyue was worried. This was not a good sign. The Bloodline family had been facing a difficult situation recently. Encountering such an article was like a bolt from the blue, which aroused the anger of all the clan members.
"What can I do? There's something wrong with what the article says. It's time for us to take some action!"
The head of the Kaguya clan, Kaguya Kotsuki, spoke in a dull tone. The Kaguya clan, who are always thick-skinned, get carried away easily.
"Suito is really going too far. Our Bloodline Family is the backbone of the Hidden Mist Village. What he is doing is obviously weakening the Bloodline Family!"
The head of the Mizunotsuki clan favors Kaguya Kotozuki. The family has been having a really hard time these days. Not only do they have to endure the villagers' contempt, but sometimes they can't even get any missions. How can a ninja support his family if he can't get any missions? He can't just keep relying on the family's money. The funds that should have been allocated to the Mizunotsuki clan have even been withheld.
"Things are indeed bad, but we haven't reached the point where we have to completely fall out. We need to negotiate with Mizuto, continue suppressing the rumors, increase the mission quota, and hand over all the funds originally allocated to the Bloodline Family!"
Hozuki Taizuki really wanted to overturn the table, but his strength did not allow it. If he had the ability to suppress Mizuto, he would not have allowed Mizuto to sit on the position of the third generation Mizukage. The second generation Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu was born in their family. As long as everything goes well, Hozuki Taizuki feels that he can also be the third generation Mizukage.
But the worse the situation is...you must stay calm at this time!
"What if Shuidou disagrees?"
"He promised us at the beginning that he would dispel the rumors against our bloodline family, but what happened?"
"The rumors are getting more and more intense! They have already affected the family's ninjas' ability to take on missions and support their families."
Kaguya Kotsuki was indignant. She suggested that the three bloodline families should join forces to defeat Mizuto and launch an all-out sneak attack. As long as Mizuto was killed, all problems would be solved.
"Perhaps killing Shuidou is the best solution. We should combine the elites of our three tribes and go all out to launch a coup!"
After saying this, Kaguya Kotsuki looked at the expressions of the remaining two people. It was obvious that the patriarch of the Kizuna Taizuki and the Mizunotsuki clan were still hesitant.
"Let's talk about it first. If it fails... then..."
Chief Mizunotsuki did not finish explaining the consequences, but they were obvious. It would be easy for him to die and his clan to be wiped out!
"Yes, let's negotiate with Shuidou first!"
"We can't just sit there and wait for death. If we can't reach an agreement, we have to do something!"
"How many people can your family gather? The Hyuga clan can bring out the fighting force, including jonin, chunin, and genin, there are about 300 people in total, so you can spare 200 people!"
"what about you?"
Is this an all-in deal?
The pupils of Hozumi Taizuki and clan leader Mizunotsuki contracted and they looked at each other. They were amazed at Kaguya Kozuki's courage. These fighting maniacs were really fierce!
"The Mizunotsuki clan has about 200 combatants, and can send out 150!"
"The Ghost Lantern Clan can send out 250 people!"
"Okay! Six hundred people is six hundred!"
"Strike first and turn the Hidden Mist Village upside down!"
Hozuki Taizuki has a headache. Kaguya Kotsuki is simply a lunatic. With so many people attacking together, won’t they be exposed?
And just now, Chief Mizunotsuki, why did you follow Kaguya Kotozuki and tell others about our family wealth? Now that you have said it, I have no choice but to tell others!
"We need to make careful arrangements. To assassinate Mizuto, we need elite jonin. As for mid-level and low-level ninja, forget about it. Let's stop here and negotiate with Mizuto first."
When the ninja clan goes all in, they must be cautious, extra cautious, and at least find a way out first!
I forgot to set the timer again. Yesterday, 600 yuan of graduate student funds arrived and I went out to have fun with my roommates.
