"Uchiha Hakubaki is coming on strong, we need to cooperate!" Onoki is shameless. No matter what Kirigakure thinks, he's determined to get Kirigakure on the cooperation bandwagon.
Cooperating to fight against Konoha is our only way out.
You all know the situation in Sunagakure. Considering the Fourth Mizukage being controlled before, and now Uchiha Hakubaki personally taking action...
Aren't you worried?
Aren't you nervous? I know I am, I'm worried and nervous.
"Lord Tsuchikage, I am aware of the need for cooperation, but how should we cooperate?" Mei Terumi certainly knew that cooperation was necessary, but how exactly should they cooperate?
Obviously, this will be a problem!
"How to cooperate? Of course, we'll cooperate in whatever way is appropriate." Onoki didn't talk about the specific business of the cooperation, but only emphasized the cooperation itself.
"Lord Tsuchikage, please be clear." Mei Terumi didn't want to waste time with words. If you're going to say it this way, just be clear. We don't want to beat around the bush anymore.
If we keep guessing, that could cause a lot of trouble.
"On the matter of fighting against the evil Uchiha Hakubaku, can your Kirigakure stand with us instead of withdrawing halfway?"
Of course, before clarifying the details of the cooperation, Onoki did not forget to make the most crucial point clear to Terumi Mei: how firm is your stance?
Don't betray us suddenly at some point; that's not allowed. That's what I mean.
Mei Terumi naturally gave an affirmative answer: "Of course, we will never bow down to Konoha, and Uchiha Hakubaki is the enemy that our Hidden Mist Village hates the most!"
You have no doubt about it; we definitely hate Uchiha Hakumu the most, there's no question about that.
Onoki couldn't say he completely believed it, but he couldn't question it any further.
They're so determined, why are you still questioning them?
That certainly won't work.
Upon hearing this, Onoki nodded repeatedly, expressing his deep agreement. He then said with a serious expression, "Alright, no matter what Uchiha Hakumochi does, we will do our best to stop him. You need to trust the determination of Iwagakure and Kumogakure. Our biggest enemy is Uchiha Hakumochi, so on this matter, Iwagakure and Kumogakure are the most steadfast opponents."
"I understand. We will cooperate when the time comes, and we also hope that the elite troops sent by Lord Tsuchikage can do their best to stop them." Mei Terumi said politely, and then hung up the communication.
……
After the communication was cut off, Terumi Mei hurriedly went to find Genji.
"Elder Yuan, the situation is not good. The Third Tsuchikage's request is to send only one so-called elite squad, but is that feasible?"
Mei Terumi was highly skeptical; this simply wouldn't work. Even the Jinchuriki couldn't defeat it, not even Onoki, such a powerful Kage-level fighter...
Honestly, is this team really that good?
To be honest, don't kid me.
Seriously, you can't be kidding me.
"Mei Terumi, don't worry." Although Master Yuan Shi 113 was very old, he was still very healthy and his mind was still clear and calm. He did not show any signs of senility.
It must be said, they are incredibly resilient.
"Elder, I have to be anxious. Uchiha Hakubaki is coming with great force, and he's headed straight for our village. Can we hold him off?"
Mei Terumi sighed helplessly and complained about it.
This is all because she was under immense pressure.
To be honest, Mei Terumi was really struggling. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wake up tomorrow and that she might just pass away.
Yuan Shi understood this principle and knew that she was bearing pressure that she shouldn't have to bear, but unfortunately, the matter of the Fourth Mizukage was too bad, and it was impossible for him to continue to lead the village.
If the Fourth Mizukage continues to hold real power, who knows when he might be controlled again?
No one wants to see the Fourth Mizukage in power anymore, so he should just become a Jinchūriki.
Mei Terumi is the choice that is excessively endorsed by all parties. What about the others?
That really won't work; she's the only one who can carry the flag.
"Sigh, I know your difficulties. We're still not sure if Uchiha Hakubaku came from the Three-Tails. Don't forget we still have a Tailed Beast."
Genji knew that Mei Terumi was going through a really tough time, but all he could do was try to comfort her and offer his analysis of the Tailed Beasts issue.
Chapter 369 The Hidden Mist's Response
"There's another tailed beast?"
Upon hearing this, Terumi Mei was somewhat shocked and quickly asked, "Master, what are you saying...?"
Yuan Shi sighed and slowly said, "Yu Gao, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, but he has betrayed the village, so he can be considered a rogue ninja. You should remember this guy, right?"
Upon hearing this, Mei Terumi thought about it seriously for a moment, and then said, "The matter of Jinchuriki was a village secret before... um, I'm afraid I don't know much about it."
Can you find out?
I can only say I don't know.
But the Six-Tails Jinchuriki actually betrayed the village?
Master Yuan sighed and said, "It's not impossible that Uchiha Hakumo came for the Six-Tails. Although his whereabouts are not very clear, it would be a different story if Uchiha Hakumo knew about it."
"Coming to our Land of Water to do these things, do they really think our Hidden Mist Village doesn't exist..." Mei Terumi was extremely annoyed, and she was gritting her teeth as she said this.
Master Yuan: "..."
What else can we do?
Who can blame them for being so awesome? This guy is probably even more terrifying than Madara Uchiha.
As a living fossil, he had naturally witnessed the terror of Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, so Master Yuan was very clear about the challenges he faced when confronting Uchiha Hakubaku...
Yes, let's avoid their sharp edge!
If it's Iwagakure or Kumogakure that want to go, let them go. As for us... well, just go for it. Don't be stupid and go in.
"Elder Yuanshi, aren't we being a little too afraid of Uchiha Hakubaku?" Mei Terumi thought they were being too afraid, especially since Kumogakure and Iwagakure had made their intentions clear. They couldn't just stand by and do nothing, could they?
Even if the people they sent weren't particularly strong, sending a 20-man elite squad meant they had to accomplish something...
To be honest, it really will affect the foundation of our future cooperation.
This is definitely not a good thing for us.
"Conserving strength is the most important thing."
"Moreover, it didn't say that they wouldn't do anything."
"Some people can be released."
Master Yuan is very experienced. Things will definitely be done, but it depends on how they are arranged. We can take this opportunity to eliminate some people, as there are also a number of unstable factors in our village.
Those bloodline families in our village are no pushovers, so we need to take some action.
Mei Terumi: "..."
Is this a reasonable approach?
She's not stupid; of course she understands the real meaning behind it. But the question is, is it reasonable to do it this way? In any case, she doesn't think it's reasonable.
However, Yuan Shi's actions were also for the sake of Wuyin, so could she object?
"Okay, I'll listen to you, but..."
"It's still not advisable to reduce the village's fighting strength too much."
Mei Terumi believed that things that were too detrimental to the village's interests could not be continued. Even if these ninja clans had opinions about me, I could choose to do something else, couldn't I?
“Sometimes, you have to be ruthless.” Old man Yuan Shi knows all too well how to deal with certain ninja clans.
If you back down, people will think you are weak, and then they will naturally take advantage of you.
Therefore, retreat is not impossible, but one must not show weakness.
I still stand by what I said...
We have to be ruthless.
Did you know?
Genji knew that changing Terumi Mei's current mindset immediately would be difficult, and he was well aware of this, so he would help as much as he could.
"The Feathered Robe Clan will be the first to be affected, followed by the Snow Clan."
"Hozuki doesn't need it."
Master Yuan has already selected several suitable ninja clans, all of which are renowned in their villages and possess bloodline limits.
Mei Terumi: "..."
Everything is arranged.
What can I say?
To be honest, I can't say much. I can only say that people are thinking of me, so I should just listen to their arrangements and there's no need to object.
"Elder Yuan, do as you say."
……
The Hidden Stone Village and the Hidden Cloud Village have gathered a batch of the latest military weapons and so-called combat dolls and sent them to the Land of Water in order to stop Uchiha Hakubaki's ambitions.
Meanwhile, in Kirigakure, the master personally ordered the gathering of elite ninjas from the Hagoromo and Yuki clans, along with some ninjas from smaller clans and a group of elite Anbu members, forming a hundred-man elite squad. They claimed their mission was to capture the rogue ninja, Utakata, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki.
The ninja clans, including the Hagoromo clan, did not question the motives behind this decision and readily agreed.
The Feathered Robe Clan loves to fight.
There are currently no plans for a coup.
After all, Obito's harm hasn't gone far enough, so the current conflict can't be said to be very deep, but the conflict definitely exists. Otherwise, Master Yuan wouldn't have taken this opportunity to weaken these ninja clans with bloodline limits.
Especially the Hagoromo group, such a crazy clan is uncontrollable for Master Yuan, even more dangerous than the Uchiha. We have to let them learn from the Uchiha clan and stage a coup.
These people are fine fighting, but to say they're plotting a coup?
It's not that Master Yuan looks down on them, but that they are truly incompetent.
Capturing the Six-Tails Jinchuriki is a good starting point. Let these people fight Uchiha Hakubaku. Whatever the outcome, it doesn't matter, as long as we get rid of these people.
"Is the information about the Six-Tails being in a small village to the south true or false?" The Hagoromo clan is brainless, but the Yuki clan is not. As an outstanding member of the Yuki clan, Shark is very suspicious of the motives behind this mission.
