Chapter 689: Cutting off the Fire



It is not known what Mei Terumi is thinking for the time being, but she released the Jinchuriki so easily, and it is unknown whether she believes in Yugao's strength or is just being fearless.

Using the power of the Jinchūriki to fight against the tailed beasts will most likely end up as a battle between giant beasts, and the commotion will likely be quite severe.

Even if the three-tailed isobuta is not that powerful, it will not be captured in a short time. If we continue like this, it will definitely attract attention.

Can a team led by a few jonin and jinchūriki really bring the Three-Tails back to the Hidden Mist Village successfully?

Mizuki shook his head helplessly.

Even the weakest tailed beast is not easy to deal with.

Apart from Mei Terumi, the Hidden Mist Village has no other capable general who can lead his subordinates to complete this task, so it is understandable that they have to rely on the Six-Tails Jinchuriki Yudaka. However, the consequences are difficult to predict. If someone wants to take advantage of the situation, the two tailed beasts will be excellent targets.

It would be better to just ask Konoha for help and pay a little money.

But Mei Terumi is the Mizukage after all, and she considers the issue from the perspective of the entire Hidden Mist Village, which is different from Mizuki who regards the "Akatsuki" organization as more important than anything else.

The Hidden Mist Village, which has already reduced its share of tasks by 30%, will surely recover slowly over time and will no longer be able to give up a large amount of profits.

We spent money to get back the Three-tailed Isobu, but if the entire Kirigakure Village can't hold on, it would be a waste of time.

"This is really an unhappy politician's mindset."

I don’t know what Kakashi Hatake is doing. It is really disrespectful to let the Hidden Mist Village act so recklessly at this time.

This information was sent back to Konoha, and it seemed that Kakashi generally agreed with the choice of the Hidden Mist Village.

"Perhaps, something happened in the Hidden Mist Village that I'm not aware of."

Because there is no specific information, Mizuki cannot make too many guesses and can only wait for further news from Hatake Kakashi.

It is inevitable that the Six-Tails Jinchuriki Yugao will participate in the capture of the Three-Tails Isozaki, so Konoha Village must take action.

What to do depends on Tsunade. The Hokage, who has the intelligence source of the Anbu, is much more reliable than Mizuki who can only rely on guesswork. After all, many things in memory have changed a lot.

Apart from grasping the general direction, Shuimu is no longer able to hit the right rhythm and achieve the best results as he did before regarding details.

Putting these things aside for the time being, Shuimu had to spend more time on manpower deployment. Recently, the Security Department has significantly accelerated the frequency of personnel turnover, and the organization of combat personnel is increasingly inclined towards wartime deployment.

In addition to these natural things, Mizuki is more looking forward to news about Shimura Danzo.

This guy has been incredibly quiet and honest lately. He seldom gets involved in Konoha's internal affairs, and there has been no news of any major actions by the "Root" organization.

Mizuki's behavior last time gave Tsunade the opportunity to go with the flow and greatly weakened Danzo's influence, but Mizuki didn't think he was someone who would accept failure so easily.

"Is it because Jiraiya has returned that the fighting has stopped?"

This possibility exists, but Mizuki cannot accurately judge what the fundamental reason is. In Mizuki's memory, the people who can be placed high hopes by Danzo are, apart from Aburame Tone and Yamanaka Fuze, only Shin and Sai can be trusted. Of course, there is also the artificially created life - A.

The combination of the first generation cells and the Sharingan has a lot of variables, and Mizuki cannot be completely sure whether this life form will obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Shuimu hasn't felt this confused for a long time.

If things continue to develop in this way, Mizuki predicts that the Fourth Ninja World War may break out ahead of schedule. If the Akatsuki organization, which lacks stamina, cannot gather enough tailed beasts before completely collapsing, it will be extremely unfavorable for them, and their final struggle will become more and more intense.

Just when Mizuki was thinking about it, the Anbu notified Mizuki to go to a meeting. The only things that Mizuki could be anxious to participate in recently were the affairs of the Three-tailed Isobu and the Hidden Mist Village.

Sure enough, when Shuimu arrived, someone was already waiting there.

“Everyone is here!”

Tsunade picked up the information in her hand and distributed it.

"Take a look first!"

After getting the information, Shuimu roughly flipped through it.

The content inside was, as expected, the detailed negotiation instructions sent back by Hatake Kakashi.

"The Hidden Mist Village is really in trouble both internally and externally..."

Shuimu took a casual glance and couldn't help but sigh.

Not every ninja village can recover quickly after experiencing a major blow.

The situation in the Hidden Mist Village is really troublesome.

The entire ninja village was controlled by malicious outsiders for many years, and then in an extremely bloody coup, the reformist faction led by Mei Terumi gained the upper hand and took control of the Hidden Mist Village.

But the backup plans that Uchiha Obito left behind over the years are not simple. Some of the vested interests who lost power in the turmoil more than three years ago cannot sit idly by and watch themselves being weakened.

As for relying on the power of outsiders, what does it mean to these greedy guys?

In the Hidden Mist Village where undercurrents are surging, there have been several kidnapping attempts against the Six-Tails Jinchuriki Yugao during this period of time. Although they failed in the end, no one can guarantee how many people with ulterior motives are still ready to make a move.

There is no such thing as a thief on duty for a thousand days. You never know what will happen if you are thief-less. The enemy may succeed next time.

"Even Mei Terumi can't control the situation and can't even trust her own people. It seems that the Akatsuki organization is getting anxious."

As time goes by, Uchiha Obito's influence on the Hidden Mist Village will become weaker and weaker. If he doesn't capture the Six-Tails Jinchuriki at this time, it is unknown when the next opportunity will appear.

"At least the Hidden Mist Village is somewhat confident and not as vulnerable as the Takigakure Village. However, the Hidden Mist Village is quite lively as it has forced Mei Terumi to resort to such a desperate measure."

Mizuki chuckled and handed the document back to Tsunade.

If it weren't for Mizuki's meddling, the Hidden Mist Village would not have a single tailed beast at this time, and the Akatsuki organization would not have placed its limited strength in the Hidden Mist Village far away from the mainland. This could be considered an unexpected development.

Tsunade ignored Mizuki's teasing.

"It seems we can't stay out of the Three-Tails incident. Since it's our common enemy, the Akatsuki organization, that's causing trouble, we won't sit idly by."

The original intention of forming an alliance was to gather strength to deal with common enemies. Since it is no longer just the matter of the Hidden Mist Village, Konoha Village naturally has the responsibility to help.

As long as Yugao is not in the Hidden Mist Village, things will naturally be much quieter there, and Mei Terumi will have the energy to eliminate those hidden dangers one by one. An ally with a fire in the backyard is not what Konoha Village wants to see.
