Chapter 176 The Future of Kirigakure Village Will Be Left to Lord Whitebeard!
Terumi Mei brought a group of nine genin from Kirigakure Village.
It's not that she doesn't want to bring more genin, but there are only so many potential underage genin in Kirigakure Village.
There is no way, the blood mist policy implemented by the Fourth Mizukage is constantly destroying the future of Kirigakure Village.
Every child who wants to graduate from a ninja school and become a genin must kill the people around him.
Only by walking out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood.
to be eligible to graduate.
This is a very deformed and cruel rule.
Because of this, the number of new generations in Kirigakure Village has not been large in recent years. However, everyone who can be killed from the blood sea of the mountain of corpses is an elite, and they are basically the best in the ninja school.
"What a beautiful village. I really want to kill all these people and then take over this village!"
A Kirigakure kid sighed with a ferocious smile.
Terumi Mei was so frightened that she turned around and gave the kid a violent shudder.
A "bang" sound made it scream.
"Idiot!" Terumi Mei said helplessly: "The blood mist policy has ended. From now on, Kirigakure Village must be civilized and harmonious! Don't open your mouth and just kill!"
"Besides, you brat, if you say something like this in Konoha Village, if Konoha ninjas hear it, they might teach you a lesson. This is Konoha's headquarters."
Bringing such a group of problem children gave Terumi Mei a headache.
There is only one child named Chojuro who is considered normal here.
This kid didn't talk much along the way and was very shy.
And he is a genius among the new generation of Kirigakure Village.
In the village, he is even known as the Kirigakure prodigy.
It hasn't been too long since Chojuro, the kid, graduated from Kirigakure's ninja school, but this kid still graduated early.
Not long after graduation, he was eligible to come to Konoha to take the chunin exam.
Such a talent allowed Terumi to meditate on herself.
Back then, she was even promoted to chuunin earlier than Chojuro.
But that was during a time of war.
It is an exceptional promotion.
"Look what I found? Isn't this the Blood Mist Hidden Village?" A sudden voice sounded from behind.
There was a bit of ridicule and teasing in his tone.
Terumi Mei frowned and turned around, and at a glance she saw that the forehead protector on the other person's forehead was not Konoha's.
It's the forehead protector of Sand Hidden Village.
Judging from the other party's clothing, the guy speaking should be a leading jounin from Sunagakure Village.
This guy Terumi Mei didn't know. He didn't know where the Sunagakure jounin appeared. At first glance, he was not a famous character.
"Sunagakure?" Terumi Mei didn't relax her brows. The other party's tone was not good, so don't blame her tone for being even worse: "I didn't expect that you guys who stay in the desert and chew cacti would also come to Konoha to participate. Chunin exam?"
"Hmph! You guys who spend all day fishing in the sea, aren't you here to take the chuunin exam too?" the jounin of Sunagakure Village retorted.
Behind him were actually a dozen Sunagakure genin.
They are also a group of young brats.
It seems that their ideas are consistent with Kirigakure Village, and they all want to use this Chunin Exam to show the potential of the village.
When Terumi Mei saw this, her heart sank.
This Chunin Exam...
I'm afraid every Ninja Village has chosen a lineup that is at the bottom of the box!
Unexpectedly, Sunagakure Village, which has always been at the bottom of the five great ninja villages, has actually surpassed Kirigakure Village.
She worries about the future of Kirigakure Village.
"Don't block the way, Kirigakure people." The Sunagakure jounin and a dozen Sunagakure brats openly pushed past Terumi Mei and others.
He even secretly pushed Terumi Mei.
"Asshole!" The young Terumi Mei was not a very good-tempered person.
A few blue veins were exposed on her forehead, and her fists were clenched: "Do you want to die!?"
"how?"
The Sunagakure jounin looked back: "Your Kirigakure village is about to be demolished by that whitebeard. Do you want to declare war on our Sunagakure at this time?!"
Terumi Mei: "..."
The other party's words just touched the pain point of Terumi Mei and Kirigakure.
Let her really kill this foul-mouthed Sunagakure Jonin in Konoha Village.
I'm afraid that a war between two ninja villages will really start.
Terumi Mei knew that the current Kirigakure Village might not be a match for Sandgakure, especially since the backbone of Kirigakure was extremely crippled.
And the top power of Kirigakure Village is even more deadly.
To be honest, in the huge Kirigakure Village now...
I can't even find a "film grade"!
Although such power can still crush that small shinobi village.
But he is no match for Sunagakure Village.
"Well..." At this moment, a weak voice came in from behind: "Do you know where an adult named 'Naruto Uzumaki' lives?"
Terumi Mei turned around in shock.
"Ah? Hiss!" Serizawa Fengnan suddenly took a breath of cold air.
Because he realized that he had asked the wrong person. The group of people in front of him did not seem to be from the Leaf Village. Some of them wore forehead protectors from Kirigakure Village, and some wore forehead protectors from Sunagakure Village.
That's right.
Serizawa Fengnan, the new generation leader of the Grass Ninja Village, came in person.
He also brought a bunch of new forehead protectors from the Grass Ninja Village.
After all, this is showing his face in front of Lord "Uzumaki Naruto".
How can we let other people do it?
In case one of his subordinates is appreciated by Lord Uzumaki Naruto.
Isn't his position as leader in jeopardy?
Even if I have to be the dog of the Whitebeard Pirates...
He also wants to be the most well-behaved dog.
"Hey, what whirlpool did you just say?" Terumi Mei stared at the person in front of her. Terumi Mei, who was irritated by the Sunagakure Murakunin, didn't speak in a particularly good tone when asking questions.
The overwhelming anger and murderous intention made Serizawa Fengnan secretly swallow his saliva.
The momentum coming from the Kirigakure Jonin was not something that a so-called grass ninja leader like him could withstand.
"I-I'm talking about Uzumaki Naruto-sama."
Serizawa Fengnan hurriedly repeated it.
"Uzumaki Naruto, is he a child with golden hair?"
Terumi Mei's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked this guy: "Is it Uzumaki Naruto, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates' First Division?"
"Huh? Do you know Naruto-sama?" Serizawa Fengnan came to Konoha Village alone and felt that he had found an "organization".
"More than just acquaintance..." Terumi Mei said with emotion: "That brat can be considered the benefactor of our Kirigakure Village."
"but……"
Terumi Mei looked at this person's forehead protector suspiciously. She saw the logo of the Whitebeard Pirates at a glance. Terumi Mei was a little stunned: "What's the matter with your forehead protector? Which ninja village are you from? Why does it look like this?" forehead protector?"
"The ninja village affiliated to the Whitebeard Pirates - the Grass Ninja Village! My name is Serizawa Fengnan, and I am the leader of the Grass Ninja!" Serizawa Fengnan inevitably felt a little proud when he mentioned his identity.
Even if he was just lucky enough to find the identity of the leader of the Grass Ninja Village, he was still the leader of the First Ninja Village.
This name has to be somewhat prestigious to say the least.
as expected.
Not only Terumi Mei was a little surprised, but even the Sunagakure jounin looked at Serizawa Fengnan with curiosity.
"Leader of the Grass Ninja?" Terumi Mei looked him up and down: "The ninja village affiliated with the Whitebeard Pirates?"
"...can he also be the leader of the Ninja Village?" Sunagakure Jonin said without mercy: "In our Sunagakure Village, this kind of guy is only qualified to be an ordinary ninja."
This bad mouth made Serizawa Fengnan get angry.
Then he didn't dare to say anything more.
If a ninja village does not have strong power, let alone the dignity of a commoner, it will not even have the dignity of the leader of the ninja village.
This is the ninja world where the jungle prevails.
The only advantage of the Grass Ninja Village is that in the eyes of the five major ninja villages, they may need to alleviate poverty in order to defeat the Grass Ninja Village.
Such a unique advantage.
Make Kusanagi Village safe.
…
at the same time.
Hokage Building.
"Lord Hokage... The ninjas from Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Kusanagi Village have arrived at Konoha first. There are ten people in Kirigakure, including the leading Jonin, and Sunagakure. Including the leader of the village, there are nineteen people in total; the Grass Ninja Village... the Grass Ninja Village is a bit strange."
An ANBU ninja was reporting the current situation to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Currently, there is only one person in the Grass Ninja Village, and this person is Serizawa Fengnan, the leader of the Grass Ninja Village! If you guessed correctly, this Grass Ninja The leader should also be the jonin leading the team."
"But... there were not three genin behind him, he was the only one, and the other grass nins were not seen."
After listening to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
He frowned slightly.
The leader of the Grass Ninja Village actually came to the Leaf Village in person, which Sarutobi Hiruzen did not expect. As for the disappearance of the three genin from the Grass Ninja Village, it was nothing to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
After all, a mere grass ninja village cannot make any waves in Konoha.
If something happened to the three genin in their ninja village, the grass ninja leader would definitely come looking for him.
Since the other party has not come to find him now.
That means there's nothing going on.
Everything is normal.
"Lord Hokage, there seems to be some conflict between the leading jounin of Kirigakure Village and the leading jounin of Sunagakure Village. But it was all a verbal conflict, and both sides showed restraint." The ANBU ninja continued.
Sarutobi Hiruzen smiled: "It's normal to have conflicts. After all, the Third Ninja World War ended not long ago. If there were no conflicts between them, I would still wonder...whether their Kirigakure and Sunagakure villages colluded in Together."
"Continue to let people keep an eye on them. There is no need to hide and keep an eye on them. Just normal surveillance is enough."
"Yes, Hokage-sama!"
After watching this ANBU ninja leave, Sarutobi Hiruzen's smile faded.
Because he always had a bad premonition.
Did you overlook something?
oh!
right!
An idea flashed in Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind. He summoned another ANBU ninja, and this ANBU ninja also had white hair on his head. It was obvious that this was Kakashi who had finished his vacation.
"Hokage-sama!" Kakashi still opened his dead fish eyes.
You can see some bruises at the corners of his eyes.
Obviously, in the past few days, both Metkai and Inigaki Kisame were forcing him to fight.
It would be better if it was a competition of ninjutsu.
Kakashi was able to deal with them well by relying on thousands of ninjutsu copied in his mind. In addition, Kai was not good at ninjutsu, so he was completely bullying Kai.
But if it was a competition of taijutsu, whether it was Inikisaki Kisame or Metkai, their taijutsu was much more exaggerated than his.
At times like this...
It was Kakashi who was "bullied".
That's how the bruise at the corner of Kakashi's eye appeared.
It's not like he hasn't tried to refuse.
Until one day, when I was sleeping lazily in the jounin apartment... I was forcefully pulled out of the bedroom by Kai who shouted "Youth" in the middle of his sleep.
then……
Kakashi gave up on treatment.
"Kakashi, I need you to send out some invitations. These are invitations to watch the Chunin Examination." Hiruzen Sarutobi was immersed in it for a few seconds and took out a few invitations from the drawer.
Then, he placed these invitations on his desk.
He motioned with his eyes to Kakashi to come and take them.
"Hokage-sama, who do you want me to give them to?" Kakashi asked curiously.
"To the Whitebeard Pirates!" Sarutobi Hiruzen said without surprising, "Give them these invitations."
"Okay." Kakashi was a little surprised.
But he didn't ask any more questions.
Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally had his considerations in doing this.
He felt that the source of his ominous premonition came from Whitebeard.
As the Sandaime Hokage, he invited Whitebeard to watch the Chunin Examination.
Moreover, he can also let Whitebeard sit next to him.
To show how much he values the Whitebeard Pirates.
It can even show that he means no offense to Whitebeard.
In this way...
The Whitebeard Pirates probably won't cause trouble in the Chuunin Exams, right?
perhaps?
…
Time came to noon in a blink of an eye.
Terumi Mei asked the genin brats to center around Chojuro and allow them to wander around Konoha, but they must not cause bloodshed in Konoha.
Otherwise, as the leader of the team, she would disqualify them from the chuunin exams.
Although the child Chojuro is shy, he is very strong and is the prodigy of Kirigakure Village.
The key is that he is obedient enough.
Terumi Mei felt that the child could suppress other problem children.
She followed the grass ninja leader named "Serizawa Fengnan".
Two people are looking for the whitebeard in Konoha Village.
Along the way, whenever they saw Konoha ninjas, they would stop them and ask them.
Finally asked where the Whitebeard Pirates were stationed.
And under the guidance of Konoha ninjas.
They arrived at the Whitebeard Pirates' temporary base in Konoha.
"Yes, I saw the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates!"
Serizawa Fengnan was very excited. He saw the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates hanging on the building in front of him.
Pirate flags painted in white on a black background...
It is blowing gently in the wind.
Logically speaking, any ninja village would never allow a pirate group to forcibly set aside a street in their own village as a temporary residence for the pirate group.
The pirate group is not allowed to hang up so many pirate flags in the village openly.
But if this pirate group is the Whitebeard Pirates.
Everything seems reasonable.
"As expected of Lord Whitebeard, his intimidation and powerful power have impressed the entire Konoha Village!"
Serizawa Fengnan was shocked and sighed.
"After all, if Konoha doesn't give face to that white-bearded gentleman, then their third generation Hokage may end up like our fourth generation Mizukage." Terumi Mei added calmly from the side.
Then, the two of them discovered that there were many children in this place.
On the contrary, there are very few adults here.
If you look around on a street, there must be at least dozens of children under the age of ten.
The number of adults is very few
"Tsk, tsk, look who I found? Isn't this Terumi Mei?" A familiar voice sounded, making Terumi Mei's pupils shrink.
Terumi Mei looked in the direction where the sound came from.
I saw a familiar acquaintance.
The opponent was carrying a large knife wrapped in a bandage, and his shark face was very recognizable.
Even if this man is not wearing the Kirigakure forehead protector.
But Terumi Mei could still recognize who the other person was at a glance.
"Dried persimmon Kisame!!!"
Terumi Mei was very shocked: "Didn't you leave Kirigakure Village? Why are you in Konoha Village? Why are you here?"
Kisame grinned.
He generously showed off the tattoos on his arms.
This is the tattoo that Kisame got on his arm after imitating the Uzumaki Kao clan.
There is no need to say anything more.
Terumi Mei knew it.
"...You actually joined the Whitebeard Pirates and became Whitebeard's son!"
Terumi Mei is unbelievable.
Inikigaki Kisame's strength can be ranked among the top in the entire Kirigakure Village, and can even be ranked among the top three.
This man chose to leave Kirigakure.
Joined the Whitebeard Pirates.
She didn't know what to say.
"Good birds choose trees to roost in. This is a very simple truth!"
Kisame's smile continued: "Terrumi Mei, why are you here? Do you want to be your father's daughter?"
"...No, no." Even Terumi Mei herself didn't know why she suddenly felt a heartbeat just now.
She shook her head hastily and explained her purpose of coming today: "I am the leading Jonin for this Chunin Exam. At the same time, I want to entrust a special item to Mr. Whitebeard."
"Oh?" Kisame was a little curious: "What special thing?"
"...It's a bit inconvenient to show it here." Terumi Mei was a little coy.
Even though Kirigakure Village has decided on a path to take in the future.
But if all of this is shown openly...
It won't take long for it to spread throughout the ninja world.
"Tsk... Okay then!" Kisame said to Mi Mei first, then looked at Serizawa Fengnan: "Who are you?"
Serizawa Fengnan was so frightened that he quickly responded: "Oni, Kisame-sama, I am the leader of the Kusakunin Village. It was Uzumaki Naruto-sama who asked me to bring him the forehead protector of the Kusakunin Village."
"Oh, I remembered, Naruto did mention this." Kisame said casually: "Naruto will be back in the evening, just wait here slowly!"
"Okay, okay!" Serizawa Fengnan was relieved.
When facing Kisame, he felt a great oppression.
It seemed as if he would be dead in a different place in the next second.
Cold sweat broke out.
Next to her, Terumi Mei was already following Kisame towards a certain place.
After ten seconds.
She saw Whitebeard.
"Mr. Whitebeard, I meet you again." Terumi Mei took a deep breath. She didn't show off because she knew that she had to speak directly in front of this man.
If he talks too much, it will only make Whitebeard lose his patience.
Therefore, Mei Terumi directly stated the reason why she came: "I hope Mr. Whitebeard, you can accept the Mizukage hat of Kirigakure Village! Whether Mr. Whitebeard, you will be the Mizukage of Kirigakure Village, or Mr. Whitebeard, you will be the Mizukage of Kirigakure Village." If you appoint anyone to be the Kirigakure Mizukage, our Kirigakure Village will obey your will, Mr. Whitebeard."
Terumi Mei channeled the Mizukage hat.
She offered her hands to Whitebeard.
"From now on, Kirigakure Village will be a vassal ninja village of the Whitebeard Pirates. Mr. Whitebeard will hold the highest power in Kirigakure! The future of Kirigakure Village will be handed over to Mr. Whitebeard!"
Terumi Mei even changed her title.
From Mr. Whitebeard.
To Lord Whitebeard.
