Chapter 124 Our Jinchūriki?



"Elder Danzo Shimura?" Mizuki asked in confusion. To be honest, the presence of two jonins, Asuma Sarutobi and Might Guy, was already unexpected, and the fact that Hatake Kakashi didn't come made Mizuki even more confused. To be honest, with Mizuki's current connections and acquaintances, the only one who can have a say in major matters is Kakashi. Others are either not very familiar to him, or even if they are acquaintances, it is hard to say whether they will believe the one-sided words of a chuunin like him. If Mizuki doesn't look for Hatake Kakashi, in the current situation where Konoha Village doesn't even have a Hokage, he really can't think of anyone else to look for...

"Logically speaking, the core of a fake Jinchūriki is a shadow clone, and its thinking habits and mental state should not be much different from the original body. How come there are so many deviations in this request for help? There shouldn't be such a big change, right! "

Earlier, the fake Jinchuriki who was left in Konoha Village had already rested. Ever since the original body left the village to start the mission, the fake Jinchuriki tried not to appear in front of people. In the ninja world, although many people have a high tolerance for weird and special people and things because of the existence of chakra and ninjas, they are also very wary of obviously unreasonable behaviors around them. Why was the weak Hyuga Hinata bullied when she was alone as a child? The reason is that the Byakugan has a different pupil color than ordinary people. And Uzumaki Naruto has been ostracized by children of the same age since he was a child. It is not only because of the deliberate targeting and admonitions of the adults, but the weird beard on his face is probably also a very important reason.

Therefore, since "theoretically" I should not be in the village anymore, it is better not to hang around outside, and it is more reliable to stay at home. Reading, studying, exercising, doing experiments, etc. have become compulsory courses to kill time, and Shuimu also needs some calm time to take stock of his recent gains.

After being busy until midnight, the Jinchūriki took a rest. He kept his body in good condition and tried to reduce consumption as much as possible. After forming this habit, he continued to do so.

It was late at night, and everything was quiet. Occasionally, a patrolling ninja flashed past the window, but nothing else happened. Konoha Village, which had just gone through the war, was far from having a bustling night market like usual nights, with bright lights illuminating the people returning home late. It was still under control, so there would be no one wandering around outside.

Suddenly, a wave of spiritualism startled the sleeping fake Jinchuriki. The fake Jinchuriki sat up abruptly and carefully checked the information transmitted by the original body.

"Strong enemy, you are under attack from an enemy you cannot defeat, do you need rescue?"

Mizuki's previous plan divided the enemy's threat into four categories. The first one was that the enemy was invincible, such as encountering the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan or the Samsara Eye or the Rinnegan. The chance of survival was extremely small, and the reincarnation plan needed to be activated. Of course, this method had not yet been completed, and at present, it could only notify the other side that he was dead and prepare a retreat.

The second situation is that the enemy is very powerful and cannot be defeated, but there is a great chance of survival, and only needs support or rescue. Facing Orochimaru in the Death Forest is one of these situations. This time, asking for help is the same, but this time there is not a lot of chakra for me to use Unrestricted Warfare Strike and Limit Breakaway, so this time I can only ask for reinforcements.

Then the other is that the delivery needs to be covert or cautious so as not to be caught.

The last one is to destroy the evidence and all experimental materials and data. When necessary, even "commit suicide" to cut off the news and protect the main body.

After figuring out the needs of the original body, the fake Jinchuriki quickly put on his clothes, packed up a little and went out to find a ninja who could help, and go together to plead with the two elders who were in power. If he went alone, the source of the information would probably be questioned for a long time, so he needed someone with weight to speak for him.

"Deidara and Scorpion? That's really troublesome. I hope Hatake Kakashi is still in the village..."

What the original body can figure out quickly, there is nothing that a copycat Jinchūriki with the same way of thinking and IQ level cannot figure out. He had previously ignored the possibility that the One-Tail Jinchūriki Gaara would be attacked. Now this unexpected thing has become a fact. If he can't figure out the cause and effect, Mizuki may not live to see this day.

Speeding through the densely packed streets and houses of different characteristics in Konoha Village, Mizuki quickly approached Hatake Kakashi's home. The security along the way was quite strict, but with Mizuki's deliberate hiding, the chance of being discovered was extremely small. Under the cover of darkness, the Breathing Technique was simply a god-like invisibility technique, but it was not perfect. There were several times on the road when he was almost caught by the patrolling ninja dogs. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and hid in time. Otherwise, going out during the night curfew would be a small matter, but being caught and wasting time would be terrible.

"Finally we arrived safely."

Mizuki breathed a sigh of relief after successfully approaching the window of Kakashi Hatake's bedroom, and then knocked on the half-open window.

"Who is it?" Kakashi, who had been awakened by the noise outside the window, took out a kunai and said in a low voice.

"It's me, Kakashi." Mizuki answered.

"It's so late, what are you doing here?" Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Kakashi put down his kunai, opened the window, and let Mizuki in. "What's the important matter? Can't you tell me tomorrow?"

"We are in big trouble this time, Kakashi." Mizuki said anxiously: "We have been attacked, it is very tricky."

"You guys?" The confused Hatake Kakashi thought for a while, and suddenly realized and asked, "You are a clone, the big trouble you are referring to is your original body?"

Kakashi did not ask Mizuki how he transmitted the message. For Mizuki, who had seen the summoning scroll held by the Hatake family, it was not difficult to imagine that he could transmit a little message over a long distance.

"Yes, the situation is very critical, we need reinforcements~"

"How could it be? With Lord Hyuga Hiashi present, and Yuhi Kurenai Jonin, plus a guy like you who cannot be ignored, there is actually a time when it is so critical that we need to ask for help?" Although he was a little confused, Kakashi did not doubt Mizuki's words. He quickly packed up and went out with Mizuki. "Let's go find the two advisors first. It's not a simple matter to send ninjas of this level to provide support now~"

Mizuki also knew the problem Kakashi mentioned, but now at this critical moment, he had to do his best. Lives were at stake, and there were two important figures inside - Hyuga Hiashi and Gaara, who should never be easily abandoned. What he had to do now was to convince the village leaders that they would really die without reinforcements. But this was precisely difficult to prove. Before the Akatsuki organization was completely exposed, not many people would believe that there was an organization in this world that gathered so many dangerous S-level rebel ninjas.

"What on earth did you encounter? Can you tell us in detail?" Kakashi asked, running side by side with Mizuki. "It actually made you feel that even the head of the Hyuga family and Yuhi Kurenai Jonin were unable to deal with it? Who was that person? Did other ninja villages send teams to kill and snatch the Jinchūriki?"

"No." Mizuki shook his head. "As long as the numerical advantage is not too exaggerated, it will be useless in front of the soft fist of the head of the Hyuga family. We are facing a small but elite group of masters~"

"Masters? How powerful are they? How many of them are there?" Kakashi asked.

"Two people..." Shuimu answered very seriously.

"What? Only two people?" Hatake Kakashi asked in great surprise, "Are you sure you are not mistaken?"

In addition to the two jonin Hyuga Hiashi and Yuhi Kurenai, Konoha also has the powerful Mizuki, a Hyuga Ko, and two Sand ninjas - Temari and Gaara are not incompetent people who have no ability to fight back. Although this team has some flaws, it is really surprising that they would be suppressed by just two people and need to request reinforcements.

"It's just two people, Kakashi, we have encountered incredible masters."

"That's really a big problem." Hatake Kakashi also had a headache, "There are people in the ninja world who have such strength, but when did they just coincidentally target our Konoha?"

In the Konoha Hokage's office, the two consultants, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu, were alarmed early and came over quickly. Not long after, Shimura Danzo also rushed over.

"Shui Mu, are you sure the news is true?" Mizuto Kado En asked seriously, "This is not the time to joke. You have to know that the head of the Hyuga family is now almost the top fighter in Konoha. With a few core fighters, the configuration of an independent combat team is just like this. Now you say that he was simply suppressed by two unidentified ninjas. This is too strange."

Super strong people are not cabbages that you can easily meet on the road.

Without waiting for Mizuki to answer, Shimura Danzo interrupted and asked, "How sure are you that the enemy's target is the Jinchūriki?"

The most valuable one in Mizuki's team is undoubtedly the One-Tailed Shukaku. The second is the Byakugan of Hyuga Hiashi who is not bound by the caged bird. As for the others, they are really not worthy of the strong ones with that kind of strength.

"When the enemy met, they asked for the Sand Village's Jinchuriki, and I think they were telling the truth." The information conveyed by the summoning technique was certainly not so detailed, but it did not prevent Mizuki from making reasonable use of it and revealing more information so that the Konoha high-level officials would pay more attention to it and send reinforcements earlier.

After listening to Mizuki's words, Shimura Danzo turned to Mito Kado En and nodded, saying: "Send reinforcements. At this time, no matter what the enemy's goal is, we must cut off the hand reaching out to the village and let the guys who are ready to make a move see Konoha's strength, so as to deter them. What's more, they may be targeting a key figure in our joint strategy with the Sand Village, so we can't afford to make any mistakes~"

Mitomonen and Utane Koharu thought about it and agreed. The general situation was such that Konoha Village had no choice but to do so. The day after the peace talks with the Sand Ninja, the negotiation team was attacked. If anything was lost, it would be a big trouble.

"The jonin in the village all have their own missions. Kakashi, you just have to work hard. It would be best if you capture them alive. Otherwise, kill them without mercy." Since the decision had been made, the decisive Mizuto Kado En did not hesitate any more. Coincidentally, Hatake Kakashi was also present.

Just as Kakashi was about to accept the mission.

Shimura Danzo retorted: "Send someone else, Hatake Kakashi Jonin will have a more important mission~"

"Hmm?" Mitomon Yan frowned and said unhappily: "Isn't Kakashi just the right person for this situation?"

He is powerful, has many means, has comprehensive ninjutsu, and has almost no weaknesses. He is the most suitable person to face unfamiliar enemies.

"Let him keep a close eye on his student Uzumaki Naruto." Shimura Danzo said, "He is also a Jinchūriki..."

"How is that possible? You have to know that the Nine-Tails belongs to Konoha. Who dares to come to Konoha to snatch it~" asked Utane Koharu with an incredulous expression.

"The One-Tail Shukaku belongs to the Sand Ninja, so the enemy will take it away anyway." Shimura Danzo retorted, "Moreover, they did it blatantly in front of the Konoha ninja. Have you forgotten that Orochimaru killed the Third Hokage directly yesterday?"

Konoha is powerful, but it is not an infallible amulet. The long-term peace has caused almost everyone in the village from top to bottom to ignore it. A truly powerful enemy will not be intimidated by Konoha's so-called aura of being the strongest in the ninja world.

"Well, what you said makes sense, Danzo." Utane Koharu said, "Then let's ask Might Guy to go."

Mitokado En nodded in agreement: "Let's ask Asuma to go too. It's a waste for him to always be the daimyo's bodyguard and receptionist. Let's find someone else." Asuma Sarutobi, who had some injuries on his body, was not assigned any combat missions. He was doing high-level bodyguard and ceremonial work as a former guardian ninja and the son of the third generation who died. For a senior ninja with outstanding combat power, it was really a waste of his talent. It would be a good opportunity to send him abroad.

"Also, Danzo..." Mitomon En turned to Shimura Danzo and said seriously, "The deployment and arrangement of personnel will be decided by us, the consultants who are temporarily taking over the responsibilities of the Hokage. You'd better not interfere too much..."

"That's true." Shimura Danzo didn't seem to take Mitokado En's warning to heart, "Before you become Hokage, you really shouldn't give too much orders."

"Danzo, your recent actions are really too much." Mito Kado En said very dissatisfiedly, "Logically, the Root organization should have been disbanded, but in fact, you have been commanding and acting in secret. We don't need to care too much about these, but you have infiltrated and interfered with the Anbu directly under the Hokage. It's really too much. You should do these after you become Hokage..."

"Haha." Shimura Danzo chuckled and said, "So, you still think I still have a chance to become Hokage?"

The two consultants were speechless, and the others dared not interrupt. At this awkward moment, there was a knock on the door, and two people came in. They were Might Guy and Asuma Sarutobi who came to report.
