Chapter 242 Monster War
Chapter 242 Monster War
Most of the content on the flyer was nonsense, but the core explosive news was true. After all, it was a fact that the Mizukage was controlled.
Zabuza's return to the Hidden Mist Village to distribute these flyers was undoubtedly an act of dancing on the edge of a knife, but for now he could only trust Lu Li and believe in the perfect opportunity that Lu Li had created for him.
The two of them had a special means of communication, and just half an hour ago, Lu Li told him that he could enter the Hidden Mist Village to carry out his plan.
Lu Li assured him that none of the Mizukage and other high-level fighters of the Hidden Mist Village would return to the Hidden Mist Village during this period of time.
Zabuza has not been away from Kirigakure for long, and in fact he still has considerable popularity. In the dungeon of Kirigakure, a group of ninjas who rebelled against him in the past are still imprisoned, including some elite jonin.
He only needed to enter the village, distribute the flyers, tell the villagers the 'truth', and then free his forces from the dungeon, and he would be able to control the situation in Kirigakure in a short period of time.
Of course, the elders who stand beside Mei Terumi will definitely come forward to reprimand her.
Even if they knew that I was also a member of the Kirigakure, they would still find a way to exclude me. The only reason was that their political stances were different.
In the early years, everyone in the Hidden Mist Village hoped that the brutal rule of the Mizukage would end. The elders might have been optimistic about Zabuza, but now they have sided with Mei Terumi and are just waiting for the Fourth Mizukage to abdicate, and then they will elect Mei Terumi to take over.
In this way, they would be 'servants of the dragon' again and could still maintain their high status in Kirigakure.
Then Zabuza, as a rebel ninja, would naturally not be their first choice.
But Zabuza didn't care about the opinions of those elders. As long as he controlled public opinion and people's hearts, and had a group of powerful ninjas following him, the words of those elders were like farts and were meaningless.
Sure enough, after he scattered the flyers throughout the Hidden Mist Village, the Hidden Mist Village fell into chaos, and the streets and alleys were filled with people discussing this matter.
It has to be said that the Mizukage Group made a fatal mistake, which was not telling the villagers the truth about Yagura being controlled.
From the perspective of the Mizukage Group, this is easy to understand. Yagura is the Mizukage. If the news that he is being controlled gets out, it would be extremely embarrassing. As the Mizukage of the Land of Water, one of the five major countries, is it reasonable for him to be controlled by an outsider using illusions?
For the sake of the country and the village's reputation, they will not spread this matter outside, and will definitely not let ordinary ninjas in the village know about it.
From Yagura's personal perspective, he may have the desire to atone for his sins and want to reveal the truth to everyone, but the people around him will stop him and ask him to save the face of the village and the country.
Yagura will soon comply with this decision, because he hopes to take revenge on Akatsuki and Uchiha Madara, so the position and identity of Mizukage will still be useful to him for the time being, and he also cannot disclose the truth that he is being controlled.
So this matter was kept hidden, but was revealed by Zabuza today.
The same thing, when announced by the Mizukage Group at a "press conference" and when announced by Zabuza in this way, caused completely different reactions.
If it is the former, the villagers will feel indignant, but at the same time they will also have more understanding and sympathy for the Mizukage.
But if it was the latter, the villagers would be nothing but angry and disappointed, and would think that Yagura was unwilling to even apologize for what he had done over the years just to save face.
For a time, the indignant villagers completely separated from the Mizukage Group. And what was the image of Zabuza, the traitor, in the eyes of everyone?
He was a man who was not afraid of power, was willing to stand up for the villagers and rise up to correct the mistakes of the Mizukage. He is also a hero who still remembers the danger of his hometown today and returns to tell the people the truth despite the high risk of being a traitor!
In just half an hour, the wind direction in the Hidden Mist Village changed. The Mizukage and his companions would never have thought that their home was robbed while they were away.
Zabuza freed his old friends who had fought in the revolution with him from the dungeon. After meeting each other, apart from being moved, there was not much greeting and they efficiently began to seize power and control of the Hidden Mist Village.
All we can say is that Zabuza does have a high reputation in these people's hearts and is willing to gain their trust.
You have to know that no one knows what the situation is outside now. To ordinary people, it just seems that the Mizukage is out for a while.
If they break out of prison and cause trouble with Zabuza now, they will be beheaded. Even if the Mizukage is no longer under control, they will never be imprisoned but will be executed instead.
What is strange, or perhaps clever, is that Zabuza never told the villagers that he came back to start a revolution and overthrow the rule of the Mizukage.
He had always said that he was here to tell everyone the truth, and that the ninjas who followed him were only responsible for dealing with those sent by the Elders who wanted to control the spread of news.
In this way, Zabuza's image in everyone's mind becomes more solid and reliable, and he is definitely not a "traitor".
But this was also part of Zabuza's plan, or rather, it was something he and Lu Li had discussed.
Because if Zabuza directly rebelled, there would definitely be many people who would not accept it, and it would give people a reason to criticize him.
So Zabuza is ready to cooperate with Lord Calamity to put on a big show.
…………
With a huge roar, large tracts of wet woods collapsed, and a monster as big as a hill rushed towards Lu Li. Even thunder could not stop its body as hard as steel.
Just as Lu Li used the Prison Demon to block the slash from Yagura's tail, he saw a pitch-black sphere condensing in the mouth of Yagura, which had grown to the same size as the real Three-Tails.
In an instant, the dark red thunder stimulated the cells around Lu Li's body, increasing his speed further. He flashed sideways like lightning to avoid the impact of the Tailed Beast Ball.
Boom——
The Tailed Beast Ball fell in a place close to the Hidden Mist Village. Amidst the earthquake, a mushroom cloud as big as a mountain erupted, terrified the villagers of the Hidden Mist Village in the distance.
After entering this state, although Yagura still retains his rationality and tactical qualities, his fighting style has obviously become more impulsive and violent.
If the Tailed Beast Ball had deviated a little more and missed Lu Li, it would have hit the Hidden Mist Village directly and evaporated the entire ninja village.
The Tailed Beast Ball is the key to the tailed beast's use as a weapon in decisive battle. Not everyone can survive. When the Tailed Beast Ball explodes, no villager in the Hidden Mist Village within the explosion range will be spared.
When Mei Terumi saw this scene, sweat broke out on her pretty face. She forced herself to concentrate and released Lava Release, trying to sneak attack Lu Li from the side.
She didn't know whether Lu Li was intentional or not, but he had been moving towards the Hidden Mist Village during the battle. If he attacked in this state, not to mention Lu Li, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, who had transformed into a tailed beast and had a huge body, might have caused casualties to the Hidden Mist Village by mistake.
"Big guys are really annoying."
After Lu Li dodged the Tailed Beast Ball, he stretched his sore wrist. It can be said that if he wrestled with such a huge figure like Yagura, he would be completely defeated even with the blessing of Hachan Ryuo, because his body size was too disadvantageous.
As soon as he thought of this, his fingertips slid across the sharp blade of the prisoner demon, and a crystal blood bead appeared, "Necromancer!"
There was a loud bang, and a hazy giant appeared in the wet woods amidst the white mist and dust.
"Finally you remembered me. I was almost killed by the nagging of that old woman White Snake."
The huge Xinya shook his head, dispelling the white mist and complained.
It looked at Yagura in front of it, "Isn't this Sanwei? Long time no see."
"Not good... The intelligence didn't mention that the natural disaster had such a huge psychic beast!"
Mei Terumi looked up at Xinya with panic in her eyes. If this giant snake and Yagura were allowed to enter the Hidden Mist Village together, wouldn't the Hidden Mist Village be wiped out? ?
The huge summoned beasts have always been weapons of war, mainly because ordinary ninjas simply cannot deal with them. With the advantage of their huge size, they can cause heavy casualties just by rolling a few times on the battlefield.
Feeling the huge amount of chakra of this giant snake, Mei Terumi was even more shocked. Is this comparable to one snake?
boom--
Xinya didn't come out to chat. He quickly understood the situation on the battlefield. When he saw Sanwei rushing towards him, he went straight to meet him head-on.
The two huge monsters collided with each other, creating a strong visual impact.
Lu Li stood on top of Xinya's head, feeling that this summoning technique really consumed so much mana. If it wasn't for cooperating with Zabuza in acting, he wouldn't have used such a tedious way to play with the Mizukage.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly stood on top of Xinya's head and slashed continuously, slashing the three tails and absorbing chakra to restore mana.
Xinya was indeed a thousand-year-old snake, and its three tails were in the shape of a big round turtle. A head-on collision with such a long creature would definitely be a disadvantage, so after a face-to-face encounter, it immediately changed its tactics and wrapped up its three tails.
For a moment, the two giants were entangled with each other, rolling continuously in the wet woods.
All I can say is that if Sanwei was in the wild, Xinya might be able to handle a single snake.
But unfortunately, the Three-Tails is under the control of the Mizukage Yagura, and can use ninjutsu.
"Water Escape·Jizhen Waterfall!"
A deep voice came out from Sanwei's mouth, and in an instant, a huge stream of water rushed up to the sky, expanding so rapidly that Xinya was almost torn apart.
Under the impact, it separated from the three-tailed beast, rolled continuously on the ground, rushed out of the wet woods, and stopped only when it was about one kilometer away from the Hidden Mist Village.
"Lord Mizukage, we must pull back to the battlefield!"
Mei Terumi yelled upon seeing this, but it was now even harder for her to intervene because Yagura had transformed into the ultimate form of the Three-Tails and was so large that her jutsu could easily cause accidental injuries.
Otherwise, instead of hitting the extremely fast Lu Li, the Three-Tails Armor, which has excellent defensive power, would melt. That would be more trouble than help.
"I know, Yun Lian, use that trick! I will never let him harm the village!"
The Mizukage said firmly, his sense of responsibility as the Mizukage surpassed his anger, he realized that if they continued fighting like this, the Hidden Mist Village would be in danger.
"Then originally..."
Yun Lian stopped talking halfway through. What about the original plan? If Lu Li destroyed the Hidden Mist Village, he would have nothing left.
So without thinking, he used the body-flickering technique to get behind Yagura, took out an epic, fully-rated enhancement scroll, and applied it to the Mizukage.
At the same time, he took out another short-distance teleportation scroll, covering him and Yagura.
The next moment, Yagura's huge figure moved and appeared in front of the Hidden Mist Village, blocking Lu Li and Xinya.
Sensing the rising aura of the Mizukage, Lu Li's eyes showed a little more fighting spirit, "So you have some tricks up your sleeve. It seems that it won't be easy to destroy Kirigakure."
At this time, they were very close to the Hidden Mist Village, and Lu Li was standing on top of Xinya's head, so everyone inside the Hidden Mist Village could see him.
He deliberately spoke loudly so that everyone in the Hidden Mist Village could hear it, and it made the Mizukage and others horrified and angry.
"Boy, as the Mizukage, I will never let you harm my village!"
Yagura's voice came through the three-tailed Isobu, with a determination to face death head-on.
The people of the Hidden Mist Village experienced a series of changes today. They just learned the truth that the Mizukage was controlled, and then they encountered an attack by the Akatsuki organization to destroy the village. For a moment, they felt mixed emotions.
They looked at the Mizukage with complicated eyes, but they could feel the firmness in his words, and also felt a different kind of peace of mind.
"Nice look."
Lu Li looked into the water shadow's eyes and exclaimed, "This is your strongest state."
