"What kind of opportunity do you mean?"
The Third Mizukage closed his eyes and faced the direction of Loquat Juzo. Although his eyes could not be seen, this did not prevent him from facing the opponent.
"Come and listen."
"Let me see what it's like."
"You can make your own decision without even listening to Mizukage's words."
"I'm definitely curious."
"Is this kind of thing so urgent?"
The Third Mizukage spoke these words slowly. He seemed to have no emotion, but anyone could feel that he was angry.
After all, this kind of thing is a bit transcendent no matter how you look at it.
Everyone belongs to the village.
The tasks they have to do are all closely related to the village.
And almost all of them are tasks issued by the village's senior leaders.
The current Loquat Juuzang is equivalent to saying that he did not complete the task of screening Baibu, but did other tasks privately, and the Mizukage himself did not know about this task.
This situation really made Mizukage feel depressed.
Even if such a meeting hadn't been held because of the Third Hokage's matter.
He probably still doesn't know what happened.
This is what makes him very angry.
Loquat Juuzang didn't seem to intend to tell him the whole story.
It's just that after this incident, it's a bit late to mention it now, but in Mizukage's opinion, it's too late.
You can't kill first, report later, and then retaliate. This has certain problems in itself. What's more, they just killed first and didn't report afterwards. When the matter came to an end, they couldn't cover it up, so they started to speak out.
It's not enough to be so obvious!
"Here's the thing..."
Loquat Juuzang shouldn't be negligent at this time and immediately explained.
"The information I got at that time was Danzo, and I hope we can join forces with them."
"The purpose of the alliance is to deal with Namikaze Minato of Konoha Village together."
"If Namikaze Minato is successfully allowed to return to Konoha Village, then the position of the third generation of Hokage will be greatly threatened. The replacement of the position of Hokage will be Namikaze Minato becoming the new generation of Hokage."
"Based on this matter, based on the interests of the third generation, they decided to ask us for help. You led us to help them complete the task of assassinating Namikaze Minato. Then our Kirigakure Village will become friends of Konoha Village, and Konoha Village will also I will help to deal with Yunyin Village."
"We didn't have much time to think about it at that time, because Namikaze Minato will soon return to Konoha Village. Once he returns to Konoha Village, Konoha Village will welcome a new Hokage."
"At that time, the third generation will completely lose the right to speak, and will no longer be able to decide any decisions of Konoha Village, and will not easily have any contact with us."
"According to our thinking at the time, if we can successfully assassinate Namikaze Minato, it will have a huge blow to the future of Qiharu, and we can also make good friends with the Leaf Village."
"Why not do this kind of thing?"
Loquat Juuzang told the reason why he made the decision in the first place. This reason really touched him at the time, and it must be the only reason he can tell now.
There is no much meaning in saying anything else.
There is another very simple thing here.
That is, he did not say that he did not know the strength of Namikaze Minato.
This is an unprepared battle.
I have absolutely no idea what the other party’s background is.
The whole process can be said to be very hasty.
So it ultimately led to the failure of the mission.
However, he felt that in the end he had redeemed himself in his own way, but in this process he needed to excerpt the words to Mizukage.
"I see."
The Third Mizukage nodded silently and accepted Loquat Juzo's words. I have to say that these words did sound quite tempting.
Can destroy the future of Konoha Village.
You can also make Konoha Village an ally.
Finally, he was able to use the power of Konoha Village to attack Yunyin Village.
Why not do this kind of thing
really!
This is a very rare opportunity. If it were him, he would choose to take a gamble.
And as Namikaze Minato is about to return to Konoha Village, such an opportunity is fleeting.
"What about the back?"
The third Mizukage was already facing Loquat Juuzou, pretending to be like "I'm staring at you."
After all, from the current point of view, he already knows the starting point and the reason, and then the more important thing is the result.
Judging from the current results, it seems that it has not been successful.
So in terms of the remaining matters and the relationship with Konoha Village, to what extent is it now
These things are exactly what we are most concerned about right now!
Loquat Shizang's face darkened.
He knew that what was coming would still come.
Mizukage still asks these questions.
After all, these issues are too important and affect the subsequent development of the village.
"We're going to see Killer Wave Minato."
Loquat Juuzang had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain that he started to jump around when talking about these words now. He couldn't tell all the mistakes he had made, otherwise it would appear that everything was too passive.
"We ran quickly along the way and successfully intercepted Namikaze Minato before he returned to Konoha Village."
"We were preparing to assassinate Namikaze Minato, but suddenly we discovered something else."
"Namikaze Minato can use time and space ninjutsu!"
"You can leave at any time, we can't control him at all."
"No matter how strong our two sides are in this battle, there will be no outcome."
"At this time we have clearly realized that we cannot kill Namikaze Minato at all."
When Loquat Juuzang said this, his tone paused for a moment, and then he took a deep breath to make himself not look so nervous.
After all, he was going to start making up the next words.
Every sentence is completely based on his own subjective guidance. Through these guidance, one thing leads to another thing, and then the final result is the same, but the starting point and process have changed.
"After we understood that we could not kill Namikaze Minato, we knew that the mission was a failure after all."
"That's when we started looking for ways to stop the losses."
"Fortunately, we didn't take action against Namikaze Minato last period."
"Everything is still negotiable."
"So we decided to negotiate with Namikaze Minato."
"Because the situation at that time was really passive. If we don't negotiate with Namikaze Minato, we will become the enemy of Konoha Village."
"As long as the different people return to Konoha Village, he will definitely be the new generation of Hokage. This is understandable. If we don't let him, then he will definitely be the Hokage. And if we offend him here, we will also It is equivalent to offending the Leaf Village."
"So we can't let that happen."
Loquat Juuzang's tone seemed very calm. It seemed that he was so calm at that time. He considered the problem completely from the perspective of the village, regardless of personal gains and losses.
Among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the other six people also nodded. Their minds were not so quick, but they were not fools. After hearing what the boss said, they immediately understood that the boss was using his words. Excuse everyone.
Precisely because of this, no one raised any objections.
Almost everyone's eyes fell on Loquat Juuzang.
"Um."
The Third Mizukage nodded calmly and did not express any opinions. It seemed that he had no other opinions about Loquat Juuzang's choice.
Stopping losses in a timely manner when it is clear that the task cannot be carried out or is expected to fail is a reflection of a person's ability to adapt to changes in circumstances.
This is not a job or a problem, but a bonus.
But before the matter came to a final conclusion, Mizukage was not willing to praise Loquat Juuzang easily. He always felt that there was something that this person had not done well, otherwise there would be no need to hide it from him.
Mizukage was still facing Loquat Juzo, pretending that I was still listening to what you were saying.
After all, from the current point of view, the current explanation is far from enough.
There are still many things that are not particularly clear yet.
Mizukage still needs to continue to understand this related situation.
"continue."
The third Mizukage spoke calmly.
Suddenly everyone's attention fell on Loquat Juuzang again.
Everyone knew that it was now Loquat Juuzang's turn to continue speaking, and everyone's face showed a trace of expectation.
After all, except for the Seven Ninja Swordsmen who knew about this kind of thing at the scene, no one knew what it was about.
After knowing this.
Everyone's curiosity was fully aroused.
Everyone wants to know what is going on
How is this phenomenon accomplished
Suddenly everyone's eyes not only fell on Loquat Juuzang, but also a lot of little question marks popped up in their heads.
"When we knew that we couldn't kill Namikaze Minato, we knew that the person in front of us was going to be Konoha Village, a new generation, and this Hokage was not ordinary, so I decided to cooperate with him."
Loquat Juuzang spoke slowly again.
"The main reason I did this is because no one else will stop Namikaze Minato except us."
"Namikaze Minato can use time and space ninjutsu."
"Under these conditions, he will reach Konoha Village safely."
"Then based on his strength, the new generation of Hokage will prevent him from any other changes."
"Since then, the Konoha family has entered a new structure, and the third generation and Danzo who have traded with us will withdraw from the stage of Konoha's history. Then it makes no sense for us to continue to maintain this transaction."
"So at that time I immediately decided that I could not remain silent with three generations of people from the old era."
"So I chose to cooperate with Namikaze Minato."
When Loquat Juuzang said this, he paused. He paused not to show off, but to think about how to use his own words to make these words more clear and specific, and to allow himself to be in these powerful relationships. Then pick it out yourself.
"How do you work together?"
The Third Mizukage's brows jumped slowly, and he suddenly realized that now was the focus of the matter, and all the things mentioned before were meaningless.
After all, the third Hokage of Konoha Village has become a thing of the past.
Orochimaru and Danzo also exposed the dirty information one after another, and revealed that they had left Konoha Village.
If there is any intersection with them, it will be meaningless.
Because there is no way to realize what the previous people did, and the relationship between them is completely in name only.
But.
If we could establish contact with Namikaze Minato.
Then it is equivalent to establishing a connection with the new era of Konoha Village.
This is a very important thing.
Looking at the entire ninja world, there are very few people who know about the new era of Konoha Village. They only know that the leaf village brought them there, but they do not know that the new era of Konoha Village is about to come.
If we can get in touch with Konoha New Era as soon as possible and stay friendly.
Then it will most likely be one step ahead of others.
If it is really like what Loquat Juzo said. Not only did they have no fault, but they also made great achievements.
Not only Mizukage realized these words, but all the people present also realized them at the same time.
The eyes of everyone at the scene looking at Loquat Juuzang kept changing.
"That's when I decided to make a deal with Namikaze Minato."
Loquat Juuzang took advantage of everyone's surprise to think through his thoughts and had already thought of many things.
"I decided to tell him who was plotting against him."
"Let him know that the people in Konoha Village are evil."
"Remind him of these things."
"According to that."
"What I need is for him to pretend that our assassination of him never happened."
"These things completely end there."
"And after he becomes Hokage, he will establish friendly ties with our Kirigakure Village."
“This is how a bad thing can be turned into a good thing.”
"That's the whole story of what happened."
Loquat Juuzang said one sentence after another, and he had completely expressed this matter in another way in his heart.
"Did he agree?"
The expression of the Third Mizukage immediately became tense, and his whole attitude was completely different from before. It must be said that after this incident, he became completely different, and the outcome of the matter will be completely different.
If you didn’t know what was going on before, then what Loquat Juzo did might affect the future of the village. But now that you know what happened, you know that the latter did it without any problems, and even responded very quickly. , everything stands out.
This was something I had never thought of before.
The Third Mizukage put himself in that position and thought he could not do better.
This is already a very strong adaptability.
The Third Mizukage's impression of Loquat Juzo has completely changed. The only thing he wants to know now is whether this matter was done well.
