"You...who are you?"

All the tailed beast chakra in Yagura's body dissipated, and his body, covered in wounds, lay on the surface of the water.

His mind was very confused, as if he had been asleep for a very long time.

"I am the Hokage of Konoha. You have fallen under a genjutsu."

Qingsi said calmly.

The water on the ground was rapidly dissipating; without the support of the Three-Tails' chakra, this water became a source without roots.

Soon, the surface of the mountains and forests, which had been submerged by the water, was revealed.

"Ok?"

Just as Kiyoshi was about to say something, he suddenly realized that the puppet clone had been summoned to his side.

After the puppet clone was dispelled, Kiyoshi also gained his memories.

Is Mikoto about to give birth?

Kiyoshi secretly said.

He specifically placed a puppet clone in Konoha so that it could notify him immediately if anything happened.

The puppet clone can use the kunai in his ninja tool bag to use the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to come over and then pass on the information to him.

Chapter 355 You Don't Deserve to Raise His Child

"Illusion?"

There was still doubt in Yagura's words.

He held his head and tried to recall the image, finally remembering a blurry figure wearing a mask.

"Masked man!"

Yagura exclaimed in surprise.

In his memory, the last person he saw was him.

Then, we arrived here.

Gradually, the blank memories from this period began to flood into Yagura's mind.

"I...did I do all of this?"

Yagura looked around at the collapsed mountains and the ground that looked like it had been swept away by a flood.

And among the pieces of flesh and limbs on the ground, the headbands of the Hidden Mist ninjas could be vaguely seen.

"Yeah, except for that."

Qingsi pointed in a direction.

Yagura looked in the direction of the sound and saw a deep ravine that seemed to tear the mountains apart.

What kind of ninjutsu could deliver such a powerful blow?

Yagura opened his mouth.

He also remembered Kiyoshi's information, but Kiyoshi was not a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, nor did he know the "Tailed Beast Ball". How did he manage to do all this?

"It seems you're awake, Yagura."

Master Yuan approached with a grave expression.

He glanced at the ninja who had received the Byakugan, and the ninja, understanding the signal, used his Byakugan to observe the condition inside Yagura's body.

The strange chakra that had been lurking inside had disappeared, leaving only the chakra of Yagura himself.

"Master Yuan, Master Shuiying is unharmed."

"Go down."

The master leaned on his cane.

"I……"

Yagura looked at Genji, unsure of what to say.

Despite being the Mizukage, she fell for the illusion so easily, turning herself into the greatest darkness in the village.

This sin weighed heavily on Yagura's heart.

"You should focus on recovering from your injury during this time. I will handle things in the village."

Master Yuan said.

He possesses power and status equal to that of the Mizukage, overseeing all affairs of Kirigakure, and consulting on the most important matters in the village.

At present, Yagura Kichiji is not well-suited to handle government affairs.

A political storm is inevitable in Kirigakure, and the key issue is whether Yagura Karatachi can still serve as the Fourth Mizukage.

Such a water feature could easily be described as dereliction of duty.

"I understand."

Yagura sighed.

He had some mental preparation for the punishment that might befall him.

Soon, medical ninjas from Kirigakure came up and took Yagura Karatachi away.

"Lord Hokage, are you alright?"

Kakashi came over and said.

"I'm not the one in trouble."

Qingsi smiled.

Aside from the wounded from Kirigakure and Yagura, the one most in trouble was probably Obito.

Kiyoshi deliberately controlled the force of that strike, avoiding shattering Obito's brain.

Otherwise, the regenerative capacity of "interstitial cells" alone would not be enough to repair the damage to the brain.

Even Hashirama himself couldn't do that. Back then, in order to persuade Madara Uchiha, he even planned to commit suicide with a kunai.

This shows that as long as a vital part is hit, death is inevitable.

"We need to find a way to overcome this weakness in our brains."

Kiyoshi secretly said.

Once the healing ability reaches a certain level, the heart is no longer a weakness.

For example, if Obito guides Kakashi to use "Raikiri" to pierce his heart and break the "spell" inside, Kakashi himself will still be alive under such circumstances.

Kiyoshi can also do this; he can survive even with temporary heart loss, while simultaneously accelerating the heart's healing process.

The brain, however, is different; if it is shattered, the person will lose consciousness on the spot.

After becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, Madara Uchiha was able to do this, boasting, "I have forever obtained... complete immortality."

Even with half his body shattered by Death Gate Kai's kick, he could regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Furthermore, half of his face clearly shows signs of regeneration, meaning that Rokudo Ban's head may also be half shattered.

Soon, Kiyoshi and the others returned to Kirigakure.

The ninjas anxiously evacuated the villagers and rescued ordinary civilians from the ruins.

Mei Terumi was constantly busy inside, rescuing innocent people.

Kiyoshi thought for a moment, then formed the "巳" mudra with his hands.

Rumble…

Numerous branches spread out from the ground, supporting the ruins above.

They also built rows of square temporary wooden houses, which were neatly arranged on the ruins.

"these are……"

Mei Terumi glanced back and saw that Kiyoshi was using the "Wood" Release technique.

Feeling conflicted, she turned and continued with her own tasks.

"Thank you, Hokage."

Master Yuan forced a chrysanthemum-like smile onto his old face.

The "Wood" Release is a very convenient ability. It allows you to use chakra to catalyze plants, and even after the chakra is gone, the creation will not disappear.

Furthermore, due to the chakra catalysis, its hardness and toughness will far exceed those of ordinary wood.

"It is only right for the ninjas of the five great nations to help each other."

Qingsi said calmly.

He intends to support Mei Terumi to become the Mizukage of Kirigakure, and then control Kirigakure through Mei Terumi.

In other words, Kirigakure will be his village in the future.

It's perfectly normal to care about your own village.

Yuan Shi clearly didn't think as much as Qing Si had. Seeing Qing Si expending a lot of chakra to help Kirigakure, he nodded in approval.

Fortunately, the ninja world gained a kind-hearted Hashirama Senju, instead of the arrogant and mad Madara Uchiha of yesteryear.

Even with such a powerful figure in charge, Konoha should not wage war on all sides and start another battlefield.

Once the flames of war begin to spread, sooner or later they will reach the mainland of the Land of Water.

This was unacceptable to Master Yuan; he only hoped that Kirigakure could remain as it is now forever.

"That's the Hokage of Konoha. I'm really curious what it would be like to fight someone like that."

The members of the Kaguya clan looked at Kiyoshi with fear in their eyes.

But deep in his eyes, a longing he could not conceal.

They are a race born for war, and they will spend their lives challenging the strong and experiencing the feeling of battle.

"Are you crazy? That's someone even the Mizukage couldn't defeat."

The other Kaguya clan member appeared calmer.

Most members of the tribe crave battle, while a small minority have a low desire for combat, with reason suppressing their instincts.

Even those members of the tribe who dislike fighting will exist.

This is the diversity of humanity. The Senju clan can produce a Hokage like Hashirama who kowtowed for peace, as well as someone like Tobirama Senju who used countless human bodies to research forbidden techniques.

The "Impure World Reincarnation" technique requires a large number of living people.

Since the condition for successfully performing this ritual is a "living sacrifice," the research phase will definitely consume a large number of living people.

"He's the Hokage of Konoha?"

Kimimaro, who was only a few years old, looked in Kiyoshi's direction.

This was the first time he had ever met ninjas from another country.

Kimimaro suffered from an illness and had not been to many places in the Land of Water.

Moreover, his people seemed very interested in his power, saying they would wait a while to test his "corpse bone meridian".

Kimimaro had no idea what changes would occur after his test.

"Don't interrupt."

The Kaguya clansman glanced at Kimimaro, seemingly not wanting to talk to him, and was even trying to shoo him away to other places.

Kimimaro was already used to the attitude of his clansmen.

He had always been alone, and although he was part of the Kaguya clan, he was enveloped in a deep loneliness.

Kimimaro walked forward with his head down, his attention drawn to a flower.

Beneath the ruins, a small flower stands tall.

The flowers, covered in dust, still stood proudly in the cracks of the ruins.
