TUS Chapter 289: Why Are All the Mizukage Here?!
🕑 Added 2025-03-07 03:03:15 +0000 UTCWhen Hozuki Gengetsu saw that Orochimaru had revived from the second to the fourth Mizukage, he could hardly contain himself. He was about to jump up on the spot, point his finger at him, and curse him.
That’s enough!
There is a Kage from each village, but we in Kirigakure did not provoke you, and you summoned all of our Mizukage at once.
You can’t bully people like this!
"Third generation, how did you die?" Gengetsu stared at his guard, his successor.
The Third Mizukage was embarrassed.
What can he say?
Who was controlled by an Uchiha and died due to excessive wear and tear on his body and potential?
It's so embarrassing!
"Stop closing your eyes like an idiot! Look me in the eyes when you talk! I've told you a thousand times!"
The Third Mizukage felt a twitch at the corner of his lips. But that was his face! Not a damn habit!
He was born like this, what can he do?
However, as a former Mizukage Guard, he knew the other party too well. At this moment, it was better to remain silent.
Otherwise, all he would gain would be a new round of insults.
"Are you the Fourth Generation?" Gengetsu stared at Yagura. His mustache twitched as he looked him up and down. "Why do you look like a child?"
… I'm so sorry for looking like a child!
Yagura preferred to remain silent.
"Hey, you, Orochimaru, right? Damn you! You were the one who revived all of us Mizukage!"
"Shut up!" The Second Tsuchikage glared coldly. "If you continue with your nonsense, I'll kill you again!"
"Kill me again?"
“Have you forgotten how I killed you in the first place?” Mu’s voice was cold.
The Second Mizukage put his hand to his chin in thought. Then he suddenly shouted, "Don't give me that! You didn't kill me, we both died together! If that's the case, I might as well say that I killed you."
"Huh?" Suddenly, Orochimaru's voice interrupted the discussion: "Pardon the interruption, gentlemen, but..." His smile widened. "It's time to begin the battle!"
The Kage gave him a hate-filled look before turning back to Konoha's allied army.
Funan looked at the resurrected Kage, then turned to Gaara and Mei. "How about each of our villages take care of their own reincarnated shinobi?"
Terumi Mei rolled her eyes in hatred and said unhappily: "Your words are not funny at all."
"Haha!" Funan smiled and said: "Anyway, Mei, you have to deal with a Kage-level!"
Mei snorted. "That sounds better."
"Attack!"
At Orochimaru's command, the resurrected Kage launched an attack.
[Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!]
Several figures emerged from Konoha's allied army, intercepting the Kage.
Itachi, Fugaku and Shisui faced the three Mizukage.
The Second Mizukage couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Amazing, just amazing! I can't believe there are so many powerful warriors in the Uchiha clan. Even their Hokage is also an Uchiha, right? My, my… They're even more fearsome than in Uchiha Madara's time! No wonder they want to unify the shinobi world."
"You flatter us with your words." Itachi smiled gently. "But you need not worry. The Hokage has already made an agreement with the Mizukage: Kirigakure will submit to Konoha in name only, but in practice will remain independent. Konoha will not intervene too much in the internal affairs of their village."
The second Mizukage smiled, and his smile was meaningful.
If I believe what you said, I've been a Mizukage for nothing!
Unfortunately, he is already dead, and he can't interfere much in the world of the living.
Meanwhile, Gaara faced his father. "Father, this time I will free you."
His voice was thick with emotion.
This was exactly what he wanted: To beat the shit out of his father and then seal him!
In front of him, Rasa sighed with a sad face. "Wow... what a good son you are. I thank you from the bottom of my heart!"
A few meters away, the Second Tsuchikage stood face to face with Pakura.
Not far away, the Third Raikage was facing Tsunade and Jiraiya.
At another point on the battlefield, Yako and Mei were also ready to act.
The other shinobi revived by the Impure World Reincarnation also began to take action.
The Konoha Alliance responded by sending shinobi of equal or even higher level.
The fight broke out.
"What a wonderful sight!" Orochimaru let out a laugh.
"Do you find this funny?" Onoki looked at him coldly. "Look closely… we are at a disadvantage!"
"I know." Orochimaru said unfazed. "But being temporarily disadvantaged means nothing." He smiled confidently. "After all, shinobi revived with Impure World Reincarnation are the best for prolonged battles."
However, Konoha seems to know the Impure World's reincarnation very well and even prepared many sealing scrolls.
In addition, Orochimaru also felt uncomfortable remembering that he had not been able to summon the First and Second Hokage.
[Boom!]
Suddenly, a terrifying chakra explosion was unleashed.
"Barriers, now!"
[Buzz!]
A huge barrier blocked the tailed beast ball's explosion.
"Tailed beasts?" Onoki had a grim expression.
On the other side of the battlefield, the Three-Tails and the Seven-Tails continued to throw Tailed Beast Balls incessantly.
With the war fully unleashed, their attacks became even more frequent.
They were like living cannons, relentlessly bombarding Iwagakure.
"Tell me something..." Orochimaru asked. "Where are the other tailed beasts?"
Onoki and Darui remained silent, exchanging glances.
According to information obtained from Akatsuki, Funan had eight of the nine tailed beasts under his control.
"The Eight-Tails has also lost all contact. Who knows if it's also in Funan's hands." Orochimaru laughed sinisterly, "Then, we really need to be prepared for Uchiha Madara's Impure World Reincarnation."
Onoki growled in fury. "We already agreed to let you revive our former Kage! You promised us that you wouldn't touch Madara's corpse!"
"Oh, come on…" Orochimaru gave a nonchalant wave. "I just want to be prepared in case things don't go well."
“Hmph!” Ōnoki snorted in annoyance as he looked around. “We still have five Kage not engaged in combat, and behind us are around 10 thousand additional shinobi.”
Orochimaru couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Old man, what you say is very funny. Have you ever wondered why those five Kage haven't fought yet? One is too young, one is too old, others have specific tasks… tell me, who among them could actually go out on the battlefield?"
He sneered and continued, "And those ten thousand shinobi? Hehe… how many of them are actually fit for war?"
[Boom!]
Another Tailed Beast Ball streaked through the air at full speed.
"Ugh!"
The shinobi manning the barrier wore grim faces, their breathing becoming increasingly heavy.
After so many impacts, they were reaching their limit.
"Tsuchikage-sama!" the leader of the barrier squad called out.
Ōnoki remained silent, his face reflecting an internal struggle.
Orochimaru smiled playfully.
…
"That's enough." Fūnan's gaze was deep, and he spoke in a grave voice. "Yako, go ahead. I don't want any more unnecessary sacrifices in this battle."
"Don't worry!" Yako replied firmly before stepping forward.
At the same time, Mei disappeared in a flash and appeared before Yagura.
[Clang!]
Golden chains of chakra unfolded from Yako's back, extending like lightning and trapping one of the resurrected shinobi in the blink of an eye.
"Seal!"
The sealing team, seeing the opportunity, hurriedly deployed a scroll and captured the enemy.
"One down." Yako's voice sounded light, as if it was a simple task. Then, she moved towards another enemy.
...
"Mei!" Yagura looked at her with a mix of emotions in his eyes. "So, in the end, it was you who became the Fifth Mizukage."
Mei nodded. "That's right."
They both looked at each other with complex expressions.
"What exactly is going on?" Yagura asked seriously. "I heard that other villages allied to attack Konoha… why? And now you're on Konoha's side. Don't you think Konoha is too strong?"
Mei pondered for a moment and said, "It's a long and complicated story. But if I have to sum it up in one sentence…"
"I am the Mizukage!"
The Second, Third, and Fourth Mizukage: "..."
"Mei, I hope you remember your position." Yagura spoke in a deep voice, "As you said yourself, you are the Mizukage."
Mei, however, was undaunted. "Whatever he does, I don't think he'll do any worse than the Third and Fourth Mizukage. What do you think?"
She then turned her gaze towards the Third Mizukage: "What do you think, Third Mizukage?"
The Third Mizukage: “…”
The Fourth Mizukage: “…”
The Second Mizukage frowned in surprise and asked, "What does she mean by that?"
No one responded to him.
Annoyed, the Second Mizukage looked at Mei. "Fifth Mizukage, what are you implying with those words?"
Mei replied coldly, "Second Mizukage, do you know how I took control of Kirigakure? And how many shinobi were left in the village when I did so?"
The Second Mizukage's mustache twitched. "The way you say it, I have a bad feeling."
"Your instinct is correct." Mei replied coldly. "I overthrew the Fourth Mizukage to take the position."
"Uh!"
"When I took over, Kirigakure only had 5,000 shinobi!"
The Second Mizukage's eyes widened.
He stared in disbelief at the Fourth Mizukage. "Kid, what the hell did you do?! Were you at war this whole time?"
Yagura didn't know what to answer.
"The war ended years ago. He was controlled like a puppet by someone else." Mei was merciless with her words.
Mei briefly explained the era of the Blood Mist. The more the Second Mizukage listened, the more he felt like his head was going to explode.
"In other words..." Gengetsu gritted his teeth with an icy smile, "My Kirigakure had two Mizukage in a row who were controlled like puppets?!"
"That's right."
The Second Mizukage covered his face with his hands.
But from another point of view, perhaps he should feel lucky that, despite everything, Kirigakure had not been destroyed.
