Konoha’s 50 Years

Chapter 475: Terumi Mei's Shackles

Views:

The Kirigakure incident continues to unfold.

Every village began to consider how to strengthen defense; the frontline headquarters discussed the subsequent impact of this incident; the lower-level ninjas gathered together in twos and threes, speculating on the current strength of Konoha's lightning.

Amidst all the hustle and bustle, Kirigakure Village was eerily quiet.

Strengthen defense? Who else to defend? The village is full of ruins. Such ruins do not even need secondary protection.

Discuss the subsequent impact? If there is anything to discuss, just send ninjas to Konoha to seek peace.

As for the strength of Konoha's lightning... The ninjas of Kirigakure Village have personally felt the crushing despair, and they don't want to recall it again.

In this strange silence, there are also some unharmonious doubts. Where did the fourth Mizukage Yagura go

As a Kage, he is not necessarily the strongest one in the village, but he is also one of the top few. With Yagura in charge, Konoha's lightning may not be able to reach that level, and even if it doesn't work, it won't be allowed to go crazy and destroy the village.

"Where have I been? I went to recover the three tails!"

Sitting on a chair, Yagura said expressionlessly. In front of him were members of the Kirigakure Council of Elders. These people went to a safe place immediately after the attack, but there was no damage.

The Mizukage Building has been reduced to ruins, and this elders meeting was also held in a temporary large tent on the east side of the village.

"Three-Tails?" A white-haired old man was obviously dissatisfied with Yagura's explanation. He shook his head and said, "Since there is news about the Three-Tails, why not let the Seven Ninja Swordsmen seal it? You are the Fourth Mizukage. What should I do if something goes wrong?”

"The war is tense now. Most of the high-end ninjas are on the front line. If they are transferred back, will the war continue?" Yagura asked.

"But it was precisely because of your reckless actions that the Kirigakure Village became like this." The old man said calmly: "If you didn't leave, Konoha Lightning might have died."

"The importance of the three tails is self-evident. Who could have expected that he would choose this node to invade? I don't want this to happen. I can only say... it's such a coincidence." Yagura spread his hands and sighed.

"What a coincidence?" Another elder stood up angrily.

"This is not something that can be excused by chance! With all due respect, it was precisely because you released the Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki to attack Konoha's lightning that you incurred his wrath, leading to this attack."

Yagura glanced at the man and said coldly: "Elder Ghost Light, are you holding me accountable?"

"Don't dare!" Gui Deng Lingyue said with no less momentum: "But our clan leader is dead, we have to give an explanation, right?"

No wonder he behaves like this. In just six years, the Ghost Lantern clan seems to have been cursed, and four clan leaders have died in succession. Who can withstand this

No matter how powerful a group is, it will decline after struggling like this.

In addition to the Oniden clan, similar things happened to other families, and most of them were killed by the third generation Mizukage in the later period of his rule.

After Yagura came to power, this account disappeared, and many ninjas also had high expectations for Yagura. But he never expected that Yagura would be even more ruthless and directly start the Third Ninja War in the name of revenge for the Sandaime.

Who wants to avenge that person? Why not just be a handsome man quietly

But Yagura is obviously a "lone husband" who is even more independent than the Third Mizukage, and he doesn't listen to advice at all.

"Who is right and who is wrong is meaningless now. The top priority is the reconstruction of the village." An elder gave both parties a ladder, which eased the depressing atmosphere slightly.

Yagura nodded: "The daimyo has expressed his stance and will fully support the reconstruction of Kirigakure Village."

The reconstruction of Konoha is very simple. All you need to do is squeeze Yamato every day and let him use the technique of three rooms and one hall.

But Kirigakure Village does not have such real estate experts. They can only pay for it and let others build it.

The amount of money, manpower and material resources consumed is not a small amount, and only the daimyo can afford it now.

But the question is, will Konoha allow you to build a village with such peace of mind

It's still war time!

"When are you going to send ninjas to sign an armistice agreement with Konoha, Mizukage-sama?" After a moment of silence, an elder of the Minazuki family asked.

What is said to be an armistice agreement is actually a defeat agreement, or an unequal agreement.

Look at Sunagakure Village and Iwagakure Village. After the Second Ninja World War, the compensation they shouldered will even have to be paid back to Konoha for sixty years, so whether Sarutobi Hiruzen will open his mouth again, no one can say not good.

But even so, peace is still required. How can we build a new countryside without seeking peace

The only good news is that although Konoha has defeated Kirigakure Village, the situation it faces is not too good. This is something that can be negotiated.

Many elders talked about it, but Yagura said nothing.

He or Fugaku behind him was unwilling to withdraw from the war, but what's the point of not being willing to do so.

The liberated Vulpix, holding on to his inner hatred for human beings, caused havoc in Kirigakure Village. If he hadn't rushed back at the last moment, all the Kirito ninjas would have died.

"Seek peace." Fugaku knew that it was useless for him to persist, so he controlled Yagura and made a decision.

Although Kirigakure has temporarily withdrawn, it seems that this war will continue for several years. When the village is rebuilt, it may not be able to catch the last train again.

At that time, Konoha was almost at its limit, so quitting temporarily might not be a bad thing.

Moreover, the three tails will be sealed in Yagura's body, and a coldness flashed in Fugaku's eyes.

Tailed beast

Who wouldn’t!

The attack on Kirigakure Village resulted in serious casualties. The bombardment of the Tailed Beast Jade caused many places to sink more than ten meters deep. Viewed from the sky, they looked like holes punched out by meteorites.

In this battle, thousands of ninjas and civilians died. Fortunately, the transfer was timely and did not make this number even more terrifying.

Even if the village is destroyed, the heavy black-toned funeral must be held as scheduled. This is a sign of respect and mourning for the deceased.

The death of a person represents the fragmentation of a family. This kind of grief unique to war times, Kirigakure Village, which did not participate in the Second Ninja War, finally experienced it again.

In the huge cemetery, people stood in groups, each holding a white flower in their hand, which formed a strong contrast with the black clothes.

Terumi Mei stood next to the bandaged Ado, with his head slightly lowered and his eyes closed, silently mourning for all this misfortune.

The deceased was unlucky, and she was naturally lucky. She encountered Konoha's lightning and the tailed beast tama, and she survived at the most desperate time.

But this luck comes from the enemy's... pity, disdain, kindness

Terumi Mei didn't know, but no matter which one it was, she would live with this shadow on her shoulders.

Just like when Tsunade, Jiraiya and Orochimaru were given names by Hanzo... 'Konoha Sannin' sounds like such a resounding name, but it is actually the most terrifying shackles.
