Chapter 128
The Third Mizukage and Uchiha Madara should have died at about the same time.
Then Yagura became the Fourth Mizukage.
In the early days of Akatsuki, Pein sent Uchiha Itachi and Biwa Juzo to Kirigakure to perform a mission. The two encountered the Fourth Mizukage Yagura. Biwa Juzo died on the spot, and Uchiha Itachi burned Yagura with Amaterasu.
Yagura should not have been killed by Uchiha Itachi. Although Uchiha Itachi joined Akatsuki, he always regarded himself as a Konoha ninja in his heart.
So when Biwa Juzo was dead, Uchiha Itachi had no reason to kill Yagura.
Finally, Obito controlled Yagura to investigate the truth of Nohara Rin's death. In the process, Obito met Hoshigaki Kisame and brought Kisame back to Akatsuki.
During the reign of Uchiha Obito, in order to avenge the Kirigakure who killed Nohara Rin, Obito continued to implement the blood mist policy and tortured Kirigakure crazily.
Later, Yagura's abnormality aroused the suspicion of the top leaders of Kirigakure. Mei Terumi asked Ao to use the Byakugan to remove the illusion on Yagura.
Yagura died several years later, and then the events mentioned by Tsunade came.
Seriously speaking, Biwa Juzo was really good to Uchiha Itachi.
In the battle against Yagura, Biwa Juzo chopped the Tailed Beast Ball with a knife to save Uchiha Itachi, and was killed on the spot.
A real man died for love, and the reputation of Fugakure is well-deserved.
Tsunade's face was serious, and she said in a deep voice: "The Kirigakure has been isolated from the outside world for a long time. We know very little about the intelligence of the Kirigakure, but..."
"The new fifth generation Mizukage seems to be interested in changing the blood mist policy of the Kirigakure, so we must immediately grasp the intelligence of the Kirigakure!"
Chapter 189 Danzo: I'm too hard (please subscribe, please vote)
Hearing this, a group of ninjas have already known the next task.
Investigate Kirigakure.
However, the information in Danzo's hands is not just this. The reason why Tsunade regards this as a big deal is that in Danzo's information, it is mentioned that the Fourth Mizukage Yagura was once manipulated by someone using illusion.
Danzo is determined to annex the ninja world and let Konoha unify the world. Therefore, his degree of concern for the major ninja villages in the ninja world is actually far greater than that of the Hokage.
Even for a village like the Hidden Mist Village that is isolated from the world, Danzo is capable of obtaining information.
Tsunade continued, "If the Fifth Mizukage intends to change the policy in the Blood Mist, then the Hidden Mist Village must establish diplomatic relations with several other major ninja villages."
"Everyone... we in Konoha must grasp the attitude of the Hidden Mist Village in time. In the current situation in the ninja world, one more ally means more deterrence to the enemy."
"So the task of investigating the intelligence of the Hidden Mist Village... is it to send an envoy openly or to send a team to investigate secretly?"
Danzo said lightly: "The Hidden Mist Village has been closed for many years, and now it has just undergone a huge change. With their attitude unclear, what attitude should we use to contact them?"
"Send a team to investigate the Hidden Mist Village first, and it will not be too late to respond after the specific situation is clarified."
Tsunade was too lazy to pay attention to Danzo.
In fact, before Danzo spoke, Tsunade also wanted to send a team to secretly investigate the Hidden Mist Village first, and then decide on the next step after grasping the attitude of the top leaders of the Hidden Mist Village.
But when this idea was said by Danzo, Tsunade immediately felt that there must be a trap in it.
Danzo would never be so kind.
But with the attitude of the Kirigakure unclear, how should Konoha apply for a meeting with the Kirigakure?
Even if the Kirigakure overturned the policy of the Blood Mist, the top leaders of the Kirigakure must have their own plans for the future development of the Kirigakure.
Which ninja village does the Kirigakure want to form an alliance with? Which ninja village does it want to be hostile to?
These all need to be investigated!
What if the Kirigakure just wants to overthrow Konoha, thinking that Konoha is rich and wealthy, and is extremely jealous.
Konoha applied for a meeting with the Kirigakure at this time, wouldn't it be used by the Kirigakure?
Tsunade was extremely dissatisfied with Danzo at this moment.
If Danzo proposed to submit a meeting application first, and then send an envoy to the Kirigakure openly, then Tsunade would not hesitate to send an elite team to secretly investigate the Kirigakure.
But Danzo and Tsunade thought the same thing.
This made Tsunade very embarrassed.
If Danzo knew what Tsunade was thinking at this time, he would definitely feel very aggrieved.
I put forward a different opinion, and you firmly opposed it. I put forward the same opinion, and you think this opinion has a trap.
What do you want me to do?
It's so difficult for me!
Tsunade looked at the senior ninjas: We are in a meeting, why don't you talk?
Kakashi scratched his head and said lazily: "During the Third World War, I had some contact with the Hidden Mist Village. Some time ago, I went to the Land of Waves to perform a mission, and I also met the rebel ninja Momochi Zabuza of the Hidden Mist Village..."
"How should I put it... For a village like this that has been closed for a long time, even if it wants to change its policy, it will not rashly contact the outside world!"
Kakashi always reports on his work like this, with only the beginning and the end, and all the processes in between are omitted with "how should I put it".
Hinata and Shizune are Tsunade's personal secretaries. Shizune is responsible for sorting out the relevant information of the Hidden Mist Village, while Hinata is responsible for recording the conversations of the participants.
After hearing what Kakashi said, Hinata rolled her eyes at him in dissatisfaction, and then wrote a row of ellipsis marks on the notebook...
After thinking for a while, Hinata drew a pig head behind Kakashi's name ^(*￣(oo)￣)^
Shiranui Genma agreed: "That's right! We are worried about the unclear attitude of the Kirigakure, but the Kirigakure is actually more worried about our attitude, so it is necessary to infiltrate and investigate!"
Tsunade nodded, and Kakashi and Shiranui Genma's opinions were relatively pertinent.
When a person is in a closed environment for a long time, he will be a little confused and frightened in his heart.
The same is true for the ninja village.
The current situation in the ninja world seems peaceful, but in fact it is complicated. Especially under the manipulation of Danzo, the major ninja villages have fought countless battles in secret.
Take the last Konoha collapse plan for example, Danzo first cooperated with Orochimaru to kill the third generation of Hokage, and then used the advantage of home field to pit the Sand Village.
The Sand Village is indeed a stupid village. Do you think that Orochimaru has no feelings for Konoha after he defected from Konoha?
Naive!
Later, because of Hinata's little wings, Gaara was captured by Konoha.
In the subsequent mission to escort Gaara back to the village, Danzo turned around and tricked Iwagakure again.
Of course, every time Danzo tricked someone, he would first trick Konoha.
It was a routine of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting himself by eight hundred.
If Danzo was represented by a martial art, it must be the Seven Wounds Fist.
Danzo's Seven Wounds Fist had definitely been mastered.
Hinata's ability to manipulate the Nine-Tails Chakra was exposed during the mission to escort Gaara back to the village.
And the Konoha traitor who sold the information to Iwagakure was none other than Danzo himself?
Hinata was so angry when she thought of this.
In other words, Hinata didn't know yet that in order to get Hinata, Danzo had specially visited Hyuga Hiashi, and the time of the visit was when Hinata escorted Gaara back to the village.
As for what Danzo and Hyuga Hiashi said, I'm afraid only the two of them knew.
But if all the things were linked together, Danzo's conscience was really bad.
Tsunade turned her eyes to other jonin.
Although these jonin had more or less contact with Kirigakure during the war, no one knew the true situation of Kirigakure in a closed village like Kirigakure.
Everything was just speculation.
Kakashi continued: "If the information in the hands of Lord Hokage is true, then it is necessary to send a team good at investigation into the Land of Water to investigate."
"We don't have to take the initiative to make friends with Kirigakure, but understanding Kirigakure's attitude will also help the village make the next deployment."
Tsunade nodded when she heard this. If Kirigakure wants to overturn the policy of Blood Mist, it will inevitably have to contact the major ninja villages.
Kirigakure itself is one of the five major ninja villages, and Konoha cannot ignore Kirigakure's attitude.
"In that case, then the selection of the investigation team..."
Tsunade looked around at everyone and said loudly: "Form a special investigation team with four jonins, and the mission level is S-level."
"Among them, one perception ninja, one ninja who is good at intelligence analysis, one medical ninja, and... one ninja who is proficient in control-type ninjutsu."
Although Tsunade only mentioned the types of ninjas needed for the special investigation team, these types are no different from directly naming them.
Kakashi, Shizune, and the ninjas of the Nara clan must participate.
As for ninjas who are proficient in perception, Konoha has too many.
Just pick a jonin from the Hyuga family, the Inuzuka family, and the Aburame family. Even the Yamanaka family can play the role of perception ninja when necessary.
Chapter 190 Kakashi dared to slander me in person
Tsunade swept her eyes around and shouted loudly: "Kakashi, Shizune, Nara Yuito, Hyuga Iroha! Now I order the four of you to form a special intelligence investigation team, secretly sneak into the Land of Water, and investigate the intelligence of the Hidden Mist Village!"
Kakashi and the other four stepped out and responded in unison: "Yes!"
Danzo jumped out unwillingly and said coldly: "Although the composition of this team is good, the combat power is insufficient. Once encountering a large-scale ninja, it is difficult to organize an effective counterattack."
"I suggest that Hyuga Hinata replace Hyuga Iroha to carry out this mission!"
Tsunade glanced at Danzo coldly, and shouted with a relaxed mind and body: "Absolutely not!"
Danzo, the old man, finally expressed a different opinion. It feels so good to refute him loudly!
To be honest, when Danzo and Tsunade agreed just now, Tsunade really doubted her life. Was there something wrong with her plan?
It was not until Danzo stood up and expressed a different opinion that Tsunade felt that this meeting was finally successful.
My decision is not wrong!
"Only a jonin can carry out this mission, and Hinata is only a chunin at the moment. It's too dangerous for her to carry out this mission."
Danzo's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a deep voice: "Although Hyuga Hinata is only a chunin, her strength is obvious to all. In order to ensure the absolute success of the mission, it is the best choice to let Hyuga Hinata carry out this mission."
Hinata pouted in anger. I just came back, okay? I haven't even had a day off yet, and you want me to go out on a mission?
Picking up the small notebook for recording the meeting, Hinata drew a big turtle behind Danzo's name, and it was the kind with a big pot on its back... Well! Cook another egg in the pot.
This old guy Danzo definitely has bad intentions.
But this kind of jonin meeting is not something that Hinata, a small chunin, can interrupt casually.
Kakashi glanced at Shimura Danzo and said calmly: "This time we went to the Land of Water to investigate intelligence, the purpose is to investigate the attitude of the Hidden Mist Village. Hinata is not the kind of ninja who is good at collecting intelligence. If she is sent... there will be big problems."
Hinata: "???"
At this moment, even if she is just a small new Chunin, Hinata has to stand up and make her voice heard.
Hinata used to only black Kakashi behind his back, but Kakashi dared to black me in person!
Hinata glared at Kakashi and said with dissatisfaction: "Teacher Kakashi! What right do you have to say that I am not good at investigating intelligence? There have been several times when I got the enemy's intelligence!"
Kakashi rolled his dead fish eyes and teased: "Oh Are you talking about the time in the Sound Village?"
"Yes!"
Hinata put her hands on her hips and said proudly: "That time I brought back the information of the entire Sound Village!"
Tsunade rubbed her temples and felt a severe headache.
In fact, she also considered letting Hinata go, after all, Hinata's strength is there. Let Hinata join the investigation team, the team's combat power will be greatly improved.
However, when Tsunade heard Kakashi mention the Sound Village, she couldn't help but think of the Oxalis Gold Mine.
I heard from Neji... Hinata blew up the mine to collect information about Raiga.
If Hinata was allowed to go to the Hidden Mist Village to investigate intelligence, the result would probably be like this:
A ninja pushed the door and broke into the Hokage's office, reporting anxiously: "Tsunade-sama, it's bad, the Hidden Mist Village has been destroyed, Hinata brought all the information about the Hidden Mist Village back to Konoha..."
Tsunade: "..."
"If I say no, it's absolutely no, this time it's settled!"
