Volume 1 Chapter 451 Assassinating the Third Mizukage? Sorry, I'm not interested
"What do you mean?" Tsunade asked.
There is no problem for Konoha to cooperate with the investigation. Faced with such tempting conditions, there is definitely no way to refuse.
But what does it mean to cooperate in acting?
Don't tell us that someone from Konoha is going to cooperate with you to play the Third Mizukage.
In response to Tsunade's question, Yagura explained:
"We need to collect enough intelligence and evidence, otherwise we won't be able to shut everyone up, so we need Guicun to put on a show with us."
"As long as your village agrees, after I go back, the village will use the excuse that it is difficult to withdraw supplies and ask Lord Mizukage to return to the village. People from your village can take action on the way and carry out the assassination."
investigation?
How long will this end?
Yagura and Master Yuan are not the type to waste time. If they want to find enough evidence and collect enough intelligence, an assassination will be enough.
Facing a crisis, I don’t believe the Third Mizukage will not reveal his true colors.
This is the best way to cut the Gordian knot.
Instead of hiding and procrastinating in investigating.
I see. You guys are really courageous enough to team up with outsiders to assassinate your own Mizukage.
Assassination and coercion is indeed a good choice.
After saying that, Yagura's eyes swept over Hatake Sakumo, Chitsuki, and Minato.
The meaning is obvious. You, Konoha, need to send out people who are strong enough to cooperate with us. In addition to strong strength, they must also be mobile.
Minato has the strongest mobility and the Flying Thunder God Technique. No one can stop him. He can come and go as he pleases.
As for strength, Hatake Sakumo and Chitsuki are fully capable of doing the job, and even sending one person would be enough.
Do you need our cooperation?
Minato scratched his head, wanting to say something, but he didn't want to interrupt, so he could only endure it.
Hatake Sakumo smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"I don't care anymore. This kind of thing is not suitable for me to do. I'm sorry."
"Sakumo!! What do you mean? Don't you want to contribute to the village?"
Mizuto Menyan became anxious at the first moment.
Hatake Sakumo still shook his head:
"I'm sorry, I just want to teach Kakashi at home and accompany him as he grows."
Promising to go to the battlefield with Tsunade was already an exception. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Hatake Sakumo didn't want to leave the village again.
Anyway, as long as he doesn't take part in the assassination, there are still many suitable candidates in Konoha.
You Konoha are really good at having fun. Even the dignified Konoha White Fang has reached the point where he only wants to practice meditation and doesn't want to take care of anything.
How failed must the management be to have caused such a situation?
Hatake Sakumo refused again, and the Third Hokage and others were left embarrassed.
Because they caused all this.
Qiu Dao Qufeng covered his face helplessly. He felt too embarrassed to see anyone.
Utane Koharu and Mitokado En's faces turned pale.
The Third Hokage remained silent.
Tsunade rolled her eyes directly.
Just do it, it's fine now.
Does your face hurt?
Even more unexpectedly, Qianyue, who was looking down at her teacup, suddenly said:
"I won't go either. I'm tired. I need to stay in the village to rest for a year or so. I also have to teach my disciples. I don't have the time and energy to do this kind of mission."
If Hatake Sakumo's refusal was just a slap in the face, then Chitsuki's refusal would be like dropping a depth charge.
Are you kidding me?
Yagura had a stunned expression, and his eyes kept wandering between Chitsuki and Hatake Sakumo.
"Why?"
The Third Hokage could no longer sit still, his old face looked very ugly.
Qianyue shrugged:
"No reason, I just don't want to go. I didn't have the right to refuse before, and I was cheated in various ways. Now I'm tired and just want to rest. If you think I haven't contributed to the village, then I have nothing to say."
I will block all the roads for you and see if you have the nerve to make the request.
Why didn’t you ask yourself why when you were doing mischief in the past? Now you act as if you have suffered a great injustice.
Can I keep up?
Minato wanted to cry but couldn't, because he found that everyone was looking at him, as if to say:
Don't you dare refuse a try!!!
There was no way to start with Chitsuki and Hatake Sakumo, and if Minato refused as well, the higher-ups would probably explode.
Because such an assassination requires Minato's mobility, once Minato refuses, things will become difficult.
Chizuki and Hatake Sakumo were able to refuse, but Minato couldn't.
Even if the top management was very angry, they couldn't say anything because the contributions made by the two were numerous and great.
When your strength and contribution reach a certain level, even if the higher-ups want to assign you a task, they will not order you directly as before, but will discuss it with you.
As for whether the negotiation can be successful, that is another matter.
At least you can get more freedom.
Of course, having the right to refuse does not mean you can refuse every task.
Otherwise, if it happens too often, even if the higher-ups are not targeting you, they will find ways to make things difficult for you.
Hatake Sakumo didn't care because he was retired and stayed at home with his children, which was known to everyone.
If he was forced to carry out a mission, he could have refused.
Qianyue is another factor involved.
"Tell me about your plan first."
Tsunade interrupted the Third Hokage and signaled Yagura to tell him the plan.
As for the selection of candidates, why not discuss it slowly behind closed doors? Why make a fool of yourself in front of outsiders?
"Then put it aside for now."
Utatane Koharu and Akimichi Tofu cooperated with Tsunade at the first opportunity.
It's your own business that you should be clear about. There's no need to bring it up at this time. Otherwise, not only will you embarrass yourself, but you will also be laughed at by outsiders.
The internal environment of Konoha is not peaceful either.
Yagura sighed in his heart!
But it's just an expression of emotion, I don't mean to laugh at you.
Because he is not qualified, and the Mist Village is not qualified to watch such a joke.
Speaking of internal fighting among the five major ninja villages, if Konoha is only doing it in private, then the Mist Village is fighting openly.
Otherwise, the Blood Mist Era would not have become so terrifying.
Even Yagura himself is one of the people involved, and a major character at that.
Fortunately, his original intention of getting involved was not to target others for his own benefit, but to become a knife in the hands of the Third Mizukage.
Many ninjas died in the Blood Mist Era, and a large number of them were killed by Yagura.
Let me ask you, what qualifications does Yagura have to watch Konoha’s joke?
"Assassination was the original plan. If you in Konoha have a better plan, we can change it. What Master Yuan wants is not to kill Mizukage completely, but to force him to reveal his flaws."
No matter how well you hide on a normal day, your true colors will be revealed at the critical moment when you need to save your life.
Unless you don't want to live anymore, you will just stand there waiting for others to kill you.
Yagura continued:
"So I need ninjas with strong strength, powerful instantaneous burst and strong mobility to cooperate with me. When the mission is carried out, our people from the Mist Village will not show up, and all this will be attributed to hostile assassination."
Regardless of whether the plan is successful or not, the charges must be prepared in advance. If it succeeds, everyone will be happy, and if it fails, there cannot be too many clues left.
Blame is the best option.
In the conference room, everyone nodded slightly, agreeing with Yagura's statement.
If they were in his shoes, they would make the same choice.
Looking at the Third Hokage who was keeping his head down in silence, and Chizuki who was still looking at the teacup to kill time, Tsunade sighed in her heart.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place.
