Sixteen Years Old, The Fourth Generation of Mizukage

Chapter 72 Kirigakure is all me



A few days later, Kirigakure Honmura.

Walking on the street where the atmosphere was much more depressing than before, Kaguya Kazumi looked at the villagers with heavy faces hurriedly passing by, and there were far fewer ninja figures on the surrounding houses than before. She looked a little unhappy and muttered in a low voice:

"Hmph, both of us were full of confidence in the war before, thinking that it would be easy to win over Konoha, which has been exhausted for many years... Now we have recognized the reality."

There is bloodthirsty and warlike elements hidden in the blood of the Kaguya clan. Even members of the Kaguya clan who have retired from the ranks of active ninjas and are housewives at home, like Kaguya Kazumi, will not have any resistance to war and bloodshed. , even after hearing that Kirigakure had achieved a huge advantage in the early battles, the people inside Kirigakure celebrated the loudest, and the people who applied to go to the front line the most were all from the Kaguya clan.

But unlike other Kirigakure who were blindly optimistic and believed that Kirigakure's strength was already higher than that of Konoha, most people in the Kaguya clan firmly believed that the reason why Kirigakure was able to gain such a huge advantage in the early stages of the war , entirely because the little monster in his family showed unprecedented activity, covering up the glory of Konoha's powerful side.

All the ninjas in Kirigakure are willing to admit that Kaguya Rei is powerful. However, if someone says that the smooth progress of Kirigakure's war is all dependent on Kaguya Rei's activity, then other ninja clans who also sent a large number of combat forces to participate in the war I can't just sit back and ignore it.

Why, you people of the Kaguya clan still want to step on the heads of other people in the village who have worked hard and shed blood, and help that Kaguya Rei to the altar?

That's almost it. Isn't it enough to have Konoha ninjas as stepping stones for you?

So naturally, the debate about who was behind Kirigakure in this war became a hot topic that people from the major Kirigakure families who stayed in the village would quarrel with each other every day.

As Kaguya Rei's sister, Kaguya Kazumi, who has a lot of free time, naturally participates in such quarrels. Relying on Kaguya Rei's exaggerated record of defeating Feng Minato, Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo, Kaguya Kazumi Lien Zhan and Lianjie once suppressed the other housewives of the blood family to the point where they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Although it is said that due to Kaguya Rei's disappearance later, Kaguya Kazumi had to reduce the number of discussions she participated in and chose to keep a low profile. However, with the beginning of Konoha's counterattack, and Kirigakure losing Kaguya Rei and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, After successive defeats, her insistence on the idea that "Kirigakure is my brother in C" has become more and more unshakable.

"But it can't go on like this... There's no confidence in victory visible on everyone's faces. If Rei doesn't come back, Kirigakure might really lose this war."

After taking the ingredients she purchased from the gloomy-looking store owner, Kaguya Kazumi complained in a low voice unhappily as she walked home:

"Really, even if you want everyone in Kirigakure to see your importance, you should come back after being missing for so long, right? If you don't come back, Kirigakure will really lose this war..."

Then, when she returned home and put down the heavy ingredients, and was about to check if her son Kimimaro was sleeping well, she saw a figure from behind who looked familiar, but was taller and more mature than before. Appeared at Kimimaro's bedside, teasing the baby on the bed who was gradually growing white hair with a relaxed attitude.

Hearing the sudden stop of Kaguya Kazumi's footsteps, Kaguya Rei turned her head and waved to her sister with a smile.

"Hey, Sister Hemei...when you see me coming back, don't you plan to treat me to a nice meal?"

"Pity!!!? Why is this guy here!?"

Kaguya Kazumi rushed forward and punched Kaguya Rei in the chest without hesitation. Kaguya Rei restrained her almost instinctive sense of crisis after transforming into a sage, and received her sister's punch without evading it. He punched straight, then looked at his sister who was holding her wrists, jumping and screaming on the spot, pretending to be sad and said:

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I'm so sad. When I saw my long-lost brother return home, Sister Hemei, your first reaction was not to ask me if I had encountered any dangers or difficulties, but to come up without even thinking about it. Give me a punch..."

"Woo, Gu, Ka... Do you want me to worry about the safety of a monster like you?"

Kaguya Kazumi gritted her teeth and broke her dislocated wrist back to its original shape. Her chest, which had no curvature, heaved violently with anger at Kaguya Rei's words. She raised her head and saw that she was already almost a head taller than herself. Kaguya Rei said angrily:

"That's enough for you, Rei Kaguya! It's not like I haven't heard about your achievements outside in the village, such as the yellow flash Minato Namikaze, Orochimaru of the Konoha Sannin, and Shimura Danzo, half of Konoha Anbu. , how can you, who can defeat and kill them one by one, encounter trouble that you can't solve? Do you think I'm a fool?"

"That's all I said. After all, you and Sister Mei are the only relatives I have a good relationship with in the clan..." Kaguya retorted in a low voice.

"Then you go find some girlfriends and let them hang around you every day and say such disgusting words to comfort people!" Kaguya Kazumi rolled her eyes angrily, "I'm sorry, I'm just taking care of you. Kimimaro is already very tired and has no energy left to say comforting words to a guy like you who doesn't need to care at all."

"Isn't Kimimaro quite good?" Kaguya Rei glanced at Kimimaro who was lying obediently on the bed with the corner of his eye, and asked incomprehensively: "Aside from being a little greedy, he It should be well taken care of, right?”

"Shit, ever since I beat him and his hair started to grow, I have to carry him to the clan doctor for a physical check-up every day."

"What happened to Kimimaro's hair?"

Kaguya Kazumi walked to the bed a little irritably, touched Kimimaro's white hair that was completely different from the clansmen, and sighed to Kaguya who didn't understand why:

"Of course it's because of his strange hair color... The Kaguya clan has been around for so many years, and they have never seen a child with white hair after birth. The clan's doctors didn't find anything wrong, but I I always feel a little uneasy.”

"Has no one ever thought that this is... uh, a symbol of talent?" Kaguya thought for a while and comforted her sister.

"Talent? Huh?"

Kaguya Kazumi grabbed Kaguya Rei's waist-length black hair with her backhand, and asked with unhappy eyes:

"As the largest and most powerful monster in the history of the Kaguya clan, you yourself have black hair. Are you here to tell me that white hair is a symbol of talent? Do you have even the slightest bit of persuasion and credibility?"

"mine."

Kaguya Rei silently took Kimimaro's little hand, and by teasing her quiet and well-behaved nephew, she relieved herself from the embarrassment of being criticized.

"Okay, the time for rambling is almost over, right?"

Kaguya Kazumi grabbed Kaguya Rei's arm, looked at him seriously and asked:

"Why did you suddenly come back to the village at this time? With your ability, it's impossible not to know that the village is about to be completely defeated in the war with Konoha, right?

Why didn't you return to the front line immediately when the village needed you the most? Instead, you quietly ran back to the village and said such stupid things to me, a genin who has nothing to do with the war. "

"It's because now is when the village needs me most that I'm here, Sister Hemei."

Seeing that Kaguya Kazumi took the initiative to bring up a heavy topic, Kaguya Rei took the opportunity to continue talking. He pulled up a chair and sat down, and said to Kaguya Kazumi calmly:

"The person I'm talking to you now is the bone clone I created using corpse bone veins. Although it doesn't have the weird abilities of the original body, it is still important to protect the safety of you and Kimimaro in front of enemies that may appear. More than enough.

As for my real body, I should be taking the geniuses of the Uchiha clan captured from the battlefield to have some heartfelt words with him in the Sandaime's office. "

"The genius of the Uchiha clan!? Alive!?" Kaguya Kazumi was shocked at first, and then hammered her palm as if she suddenly realized, "That is indeed worth leaving the battlefield and bringing him back to the village yourself. Important resources have come..."

"Yes, this is the reason why I reported it to the Sandaime and applied for a temporary return to the village from the front line." Kaguya Rei nodded, recognizing Kaguya Kazumi's speech.

"Then the enemy you mentioned to be on guard against is the Uchiha clan's avenger?" Kazumi Kaguya held Kimimaro in her arms and asked nervously: "With their usual temperament, He will indeed try his best to regain the lost Sharingan..."

"Ah, that's not the case," Kaguya Rei raised a finger and shook it gently, "The leader of the Uchiha clan was seriously injured by me just now. In a short time, they probably don't have the guts or the manpower to come. Kirigakure’s village gave away people’s heads.”

"Isn't that the end?" Kaguya Kazumi tilted her head in confusion, "Except for those lunatics from the Uchiha clan, how can anyone dare to come to our Kaguya clan's territory to assassinate people related to you? "

"Yes, I have."

Kaguya Rei raised her hand and fired a ten-finger-piercing bullet in the direction of the ceiling. After a muffled grunt, a ninja wearing the uniform of Kirigakure's assassination force fell weakly from the roof with a "bang". Dust was stirred up on the ground outside the room.

"The ANBU under the Sandaime have been keeping a close eye on you, Kazumi-nee."

Listening to Kaguya Rei's suddenly cold voice, Kaguya Kazumi's heart trembled, and an idea came to mind that even the most radical and bold elder in the Kaguya clan would find a little too crazy.

"Rei..." Kaguya Kazumi opened her mouth dryly, and asked with a trembling voice: "Do you, do you want to launch a coup against the Third Generation?"

"why not?"

Kaguya touched his fingers together, and beneath his calm gaze was a heart-stopping blazing fire.

"The strong will ascend and the weak will retreat. This is the iron rule that Kirigakure believes in... Since I am already so much stronger than that insect of the Sandaime, why should I let him continue to bring trouble to the entire Kirigakure?"

"The idea of ​​the elders is that after the war with Konoha is over, they will speak out and support me to take over as the Fourth Mizukage, right? Sorry, I don't think it will be with a group of small insects who have been brainwashed and purified by big insects, right? , and still be able to manage Kirigakure well, which is already teetering on the passing line of the Five Great Ninja Villages."

Second update

The effect of physical therapy + new chair is pretty good. I feel less tired even after sitting and writing for four hours.
