The Sharingan is a natural enemy of the tailed beasts, and it is too restrained. It is not surprising that the three-tailed beast and Yagura were hit. Duke even suspected that Yagura was able to perfectly exert the power of the three-tailed beast, which was the reason why the three-tailed beast was controlled by Obito.
By the river, the Kirigakure ninjas who were plotting a rebellion were engaged in a fierce quarrel. Although they had conspired together to accomplish the goal, the Mizukage was the strongest fighting force in the village after all. Even for the sake of their self-esteem, they would not admit that their own Kage was controlled.
"If it is true as you said, Ao, that the Mizukage is being controlled by someone, then assassinating him is not enough to solve the problem. It must be that another country is deliberately trying to weaken our country's strength. This matter should be reported to the Daimyo, and he should be asked to remove the Mizukage immediately."
"I am afraid that the daimyo has also been controlled... Various signs indicate that this may really be the case."
"Damn it, who is the mastermind behind this? Who in the ninja world can do such a thing?"
"Is it the Uchiha of Konoha? It is said that the former 'Shura of the Ninja World' Uchiha Madara could easily control the tailed beasts."
"Impossible, Uchiha Madara died a long time ago! Where is the powerful Uchiha in Konoha now?"
"Then I'll be frank. You are all here conspiring to take down the Fourth Mizukage, and I want to join in."

Qingzheng was roaring, and his eyes swept across the ice under Zabuza's feet. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He saw a grayish-white human figure hiding in the water.
The fog spread across the open river in the blink of an eye, and the sight was instantly pitch-black, turning into a vast expanse of white. The fog was so thick that one could clearly feel its weight, like a substance, weighing heavily on one's body, making it difficult to breathe.
"What a joke! How old was he three years ago? Even if he has been practicing since his mother's womb, he can't be so powerful!"
On this side, Duke stood calmly in the encirclement, and his expression stunned everyone.
"I'm not mistaken, this chakra...it must be him!" Qing's face became even uglier.
Zabuza pointed his beheading sword at Duke with a murderous look on his face, and scolded him: "The murderer who killed the Third Mizukage actually dared to show up in the Water Country so brazenly. You are really brave."
"What's going on? There are still Mizunotsuki ninjas alive? Didn't the entire clan get wiped out?"
Water Substitution Technique! Zabuza's real body fell to the side, covered his chest and groaned. Seeing Duke's vague eyes, he said in disbelief: "Is this guy my nemesis?"
Duke was very familiar with the ninjutsu that Zabuza used, the Water Dragon Bullet Technique, which was the first advanced water jutsu he learned. Even a jonin would need several seconds to complete the 44 seals, and he would have been killed countless times in such a long time. Since Duke learned the simplified version of the second generation of Hokage, he has never made such a long seal again.
"In short, I don't believe that the Mizukage is being controlled by someone. This assumption is simply not true..."
The group of people felt horrified upon hearing this, and scattered in all directions at the fastest speed. Their hair stood up, their backs felt cold, facing the perfect Jinchūriki, saying they were not afraid was just empty talk, but running away was not an option, they could run away but not the temple, if they ran away they could become traitors, what about the family? "The opportunity cannot be missed, kill him!" Zabuza narrowed his eyes and raised the beheading sword, although it was a bit hasty, but now Yagura was not in the village, and there was no Anbu guarding him closely, it was simply a good opportunity given by God.
Chou——Shen——Mao——Zi——Hai——You——Chou!
Someone is lurking in the water, and his chakra is extremely huge! This amount of chakra is rare in Qing's ninja career, and it is almost the same as the tailed beast.
"I've heard of him. He possesses the bloodline of Ice Release, but he is willing to be a lackey of Konoha. The Third Mizukage and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen died at his hands one after another. He is a shame for the Hidden Mist Village."
"I don't deserve it! First of all, I wasn't the one who killed the Third Mizukage. Everyone saw it. The murderer was Orochimaru." Duke raised two fingers and said, "Secondly, you rebels who are plotting to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage, what qualifications do you have to say this to me?"
Everyone cursed inwardly when they heard this. It wasn't enough to have scolded the Third Mizukage, now they're targeting the Fourth. Does the Mizukage have a grudge against you? The Kirigakure still have some basic moral integrity. No matter how cruel and brutal the Fourth Mizukage is, behind closed doors it's Kirigakure's family affair. Kirigakure should handle Kirigakure's affairs themselves. Even if they have to fight to the death, they won't resort to outsiders.
"Ming, calm down! He is not our companion, he is a Konoha jonin and an enemy of us, Kirigakure." Qing reminded him at the right time, fearing that Mei Terumi would fall into the vicious circle of being bound by her companions.
"You Konoha guy, don't look down on me. Let me, the Kirigakure demon, take off your head." Zabuza was furious. He quickly formed hand seals and performed a silent killing technique.
"There is someone underwater, it's the Mizukage Yagura!" Qing's eyes were bloodshot and he roared miserably. They were too careless and were discovered before they could do anything. Is Kirigakure really hopeless?
Zabuza screamed as his chest was pierced by the sharp dragon fangs, and then turned into a pool of water.
Qing stepped forward and shouted, "Be careful, he is the Konoha Jonin Duke Mitarai, the murderer of the Third Mizukage. He is recorded in your ninja manual. He is an S-rank ninja! Extremely dangerous!"
The other Kirigakure ninjas, after being reminded by Qing, also knew Duke's identity and began to curse him. Kirigakure went from prosperity to decline at the beginning of the Third World War, and the turning point was the destruction of the Third Mizukage and the Seven People. Duke made a great contribution to the current situation of Kirigakure.
"What!?"
"No... No, it's not the Mizukage Yagura..." Qing's face twitched. He was shocked by the huge chakra and thought it was Yagura himself. After a howl, he realized that he was wrong. Seeing the black and white figure floating up and breaking through the ice, he was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He swallowed his saliva: "What a terrifying chakra, who on earth is it that can rival the tailed beasts."
"From what I know, Shisui can probably do it. His illusion technique is very strong."
“…”
Mei Terumi woke up in time and gritted her teeth: "I know he is not my teammate!" "It's him!"
A bit embarrassing! Zabuza decided to save his image, put the beheading sword behind his back, and made seals with both hands in rapid succession.
There was a quarrel at the riverside, and the arguments escalated into quarrels. Zabuza frowned, and they lost their composure just because of an unconfirmed intelligence. He looked down on this group of people. He originally thought that they could do a lot, but now it seems that they are just a bunch of useless people. If they cooperated further, they would probably be killed.
"Stop talking nonsense! You're a ninja from Konoha, what are you doing in the Water Country?" Zabuza's eyes flashed, and he suspected that the person controlling the Mizukage Yagura was Duke.
"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
"How is this possible? There are only seven seals..." He huffed and puffed and made 30 seals. When he looked up, the fight was over. Zabuza was devastated.
"Stop arguing!" Qing yelled angrily, then suddenly opened his white eyes and scanned the surroundings: "You are all experienced elites, you all know the insight of the white eyes, why don't you want to believe the facts..."
"The Mizukage is here?"
Unfortunately, Duke was too experienced in dealing with water-style ninjas. The cold air emanated from his body, and the water vapor pre-cooled and solidified, forming pieces of ice particles that fell down.
Damn it!
"The remnants of the Mizunotsuki clan..."
The water flow broke through the ice and gathered in mid-air to form a huge water dragon. The water dragon leaped up, leaned down, and swallowed Zabuza, who had a dazed look on his face, in one gulp.
Zabuza had not taken two steps with the beheading sword in his hand when he found that the fog had disappeared and the view ahead was clear.
Mei Terumi no longer cared to listen to what Qing said. She stared blankly at Duke who had broken through the ice, her mind a blur: "Mizunoe Tenma!?"
Mei Terumi's face was dark, and she was on guard as she said speechlessly, "Qing, look carefully, how could someone's chakra be as huge as that of a tailed beast?"
"Water Style: Mist Hidden Technique!"
The mighty Mist Hidden Demon was knocked down in just two moves, not because of his lack of strength, but because he chose the wrong method. Duke is best at ice escape and water escape.
He is not Zabuza's nemesis, he is the nemesis of all water-style ninjas.
"Eye roll!"
When Zabuza launched his attack, Qing was not idle either. He opened his Byakuya eyes to see the acupuncture points in Duke's body clearly, jumped in front of Duke, condensed water-attribute chakra at his fingertips, and pierced the major acupuncture points around Duke's body.
