RoU Chapter 198: The Truth About the Strongest Mizukage
🕑 Added 2024-02-16 02:16:49 +0000 UTC"Our Hyuga clan can also produce Kage-level experts!".
"In the future... we might even aspire to be Hokage!"
These words caused a shock to everyone present, both the main family and the branch family.
The Hyuga clan's combat strength is very strange. Although they practiced seriously, perhaps due to the lack of proper education for the branch family and the excessive protection of the main family, they did not receive enough training. Furthermore, the too comfortable environment led them to decadence.
Although the activation rate of the Byakugan within the Hyuga clan is very high and most shinobi have impressive combat power, they strangely did not have a single Kage-level shinobi.
The absence of a Kage level means that they cannot aspire to the position of Hokage, which in turn means that they cannot further advance their development or establish their own glory.
In the eyes of the shinobi of the main family, a little hope and expectation emerged.
The main family does not lack money, nor women, nor all the glory and wealth. Their ultimate goal is, without a doubt, to reach the Kage level, to become Hokage...
"The main family and the branch family should unite!" Neji said solemnly. "I admit that the family branch will benefit after this reform, but the shinobi of the main family are not left without profits."
"Hinata-sama has already spoken with Natsuo-sama. If you show your sincere loyalty to Hinata-sama, you will be able to access the secret techniques of the Otsutsuki clan."
"Maybe they are just one step away from becoming Kage-level shinobi." Neji smiled lightly at the end, although his voice was flat, it was full of temptation.
The main family fell under his spell instantly. They looked at each other with doubtful expressions, then sighed softly and lowered their heads in unison.
...
Tsunade, leading a large group of shinobi, runs towards the Hyuga clan in a hurry.
The Four Violet Flames Formation is so obvious that it can be seen clearly from a great distance.
And with the large number of maids, the shinobi of the branch family who were unaware, and the shinobi of the main family, they immediately reported the unusual situation to Konoha, seeking support.
Tsunade didn't hesitate to get there. After all, the Four Violet Flames Formation was used by the Kazekage when he killed the Third Hokage! The Hyuga Clan... Looks like they're in trouble.
However, when he had just arrived, he saw the barrier surrounding the Hyuga clan's main residence slowly disappearing.
Tsunade frowned, and then saw the Hyuga clan walking out slowly, surrounding Neji and Hinata. Even Hiashi, stood behind Hinata.
"What's going on with the Hyuga clan?" Tsunade asked bluntly.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, Hokage-sama." Hiashi coughed and said: "Our Hyuga clan had a small meeting and discussed a small matter...The meeting is now over."
Neji also nodded, bowed and said: "I am very sorry for making you come in the middle of your tasks. I speak on behalf of the Hyuga clan to express our sincerest apologies."
As he spoke, he glanced backwards, and immediately a shinobi from the Hyuga clan brought a few small red envelopes to distribute to the shinobi present.
However, Tsunade looked at them with a very strange expression. As one of the best medical-nin, she could immediately see Hiashi's injuries. Although they were not serious, they were definitely not the result of a simple meeting!
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Tsunade said unceremoniously. "What kind of meeting can justify this fuss?"
"It's a meeting about the succession of the clan leader..." Neji smiled slightly and said. "Hiashi-sama decided to hand over the position of clan leader to Hinata-sama. Since there are some different opinions within the clan, we decided to put up a barrier and discuss it internally..."
"I am very sorry for not informing Konoha beforehand. The Hyuga clan will send our apologies to the village later and we will accept any punishment imposed on us."
The corner of Tsunade's mouth twitched: "An internal meeting? Or a coup?"
"No, no, we were just arguing..." Neji smiled and said: "If you don't believe me, you can ask anyone in the Hyuga clan."
Before Tsunade asked anything, many high-level members of the Hyuga clan said one after another.
"That's right, it's a meeting!"
"We didn't do anything, we just discussed some issues."
"Hokage-sama, you have to trust us!"
"Yes, we were deciding the future course of the Hyuga clan and the next reforms... there was some uproar, but we have reached an agreement."
Tsunade watched the group's performance dumbfounded. Obviously she knew that this is definitely not as simple as a meeting, but each of them smiled, shaking their heads...
These people are high-ranking Hyuga! How could they respond so unanimously when the reforms also affected their interests?
The elite of the Hyuga clan are firmly attracted by the inheritance of Otsutsuki clan. How could they allow Neji to lose his position at this time?
Even Hiashi, who had been removed from his position as clan leader, coughed and said: "Hokage-sama, this is an internal matter of the Hyuga clan. I don't think the village needs to worry too much about it."
Even he wanted to go to the Moon immediately to take a look at the Otsutsuki clan's secret techniques. Maybe he could even regain his position!
...
The political revolt calmed down simply and calmly. If it weren't for those involved, no one would know what had happened to the Hyuga clan.
Neji didn't make promises just to fool the clan members. After consulting with Natsuo, he led some Hyuga clan elders to the moon through the passage, allowing them to see the magnificent interior of the moon with their own eyes.
The Hyuga clan elders were stunned.
They then immediately immersed themselves in the secret techniques of the Otsutsuki clan. As a clan that had maintained its heritage since the time of the Sage of the Six Paths, they had accumulated a variety of secret techniques that surpassed the expectations of the elders...
Thus, the Hyuga clan found stability.
Hinata legitimately became the new leader of the clan and convinced everyone... If they did not agree, they were prohibited from accessing those secret techniques.
...
Learning the various secret techniques of the Otsutsuki clan was a great opportunity for the Hyuga clan, and the rich collection of books could even give hope to many of the Elite Jonin of reaching the Kage level.
Even if it was just a hope, if Natsuo hadn't forcibly subdued Toneri, it's likely that they would never have had this opportunity in their lives. That's why they were secretly grateful to Natsuo.
With the help of the clan elders, an Elite Jonin and a female Jonin who was recently promoted to Elite Jonin ended up marrying Natsuo.
Hinata was a little angry, but still didn't say anything, just looked at Natsuo with resentful eyes. The marriage restrictions had been lifted, now she could get married, but due to her age, she had to postpone her marriage...
...
The shinobi world was calm and Natsuo 'worked' hard with his new wives from the Hyuga clan to revive the Uchiha clan.
Akatsuki seemed to have completely disappeared, even though the Five Great Shinobi Villages had searched the shinobi world several times without success.
It was as if they had completely dissolved.
But all the Shinobi Villages still believed that, once Akatsuki really acted, it would be a shock.
At this moment, Terumi Mei suddenly announced a visit to Konoha.
Tsunade received her cordially and both parties discussed the current situation of the shinobi world.
Both agreed to continue strengthening cooperation in the multilateral framework and make more efforts to improve exchange between the two villages. Both were firmly against terrorist acts like those of Akatsuki, and advocated the destruction of the common enemy, Akatsuki.
Tsunade stated that the relationship between Konohagakure and Kirigakure is rock solid and can withstand any challenge posed by the ever-changing world situation.
Terumi Mei noted that given Akatsuki's activities, it was especially significant for both sides to further coordinate and cooperate on the world stage...
Well, the above is all official.
The real situation is...
"Mizukage-sama, the child in your arms is..." Tsunade looked curiously at the child Terumi Mei was holding.
There are many people fleeing for their lives with their children in their arms, and this is the first time she has seen someone carrying a child out for diplomacy.
Wasn't Terumi Mei afraid of being attacked by shinobi along the way and putting the child in danger?
"This is my adoptive son." Terumi Mei showed a motherly smile. "Because he's too attached to me, so I had to bring him too..."
"It's really adorable." Tsunade also looked at the baby and smiled. As she spoke, she skillfully teased the child.
"Hokage-sama also knows how to take care of children?" Terumi Mei asked in surprise.
"After all, I am also an experienced person." Tsunade smiled slightly. "To be honest, I am a mother of two children."
Although in fact, it is the full-time secretary Shizune who takes care of the children. Of course, although Tsunade has little experience in taking care of children, it is not inexperienced at all.
Terumi Mei asked Tsunade about baby care with a serious face. After all, the best medical-nin in the shinobi world wasn't just empty fame. Although she had also sought out several very competent medical-nin in Kirigakure and discussed the care of newborns, could they compare to Tsunade?
The two mothers immediately started a discussion on the care of their children, and the chat was full of enthusiasm.
Meanwhile, Ao and Nara Shikaku had already established the framework of the treaty between the two villages.
Of course, with the power of the Kage level, although most of their attention was on the conversation, they had enough ability to pay attention to the negotiations taking place on the side.
"Mizukage-sama, your son is so cute!" Tsunade chuckled.
Although the general framework of the treaty was already established and beneficial to both countries, it clearly favored the Land of Fire more.
Was Kirigakure sending a gesture of goodwill? Tsunade wasn't sure why they were doing it, but that didn't stop her from offering some gratuitous praise.
"Really, I don't think so." Terumi Mei chuckled.
"No way, look at the child's eyes, how dark and bright!" Tsunade said with a wide smile. "Even his dark curls have so much personality."
"It's almost like he's my own son..." Tsunade's expression froze suddenly.
Sure! Her son and Terumi Mei's son really looked alike!
Not only her own son, but also Ameyuri's, Yukino's… Many of the children Tsunade knew had similar characteristics to Terumi Mei's son.
And if she calculated the time, it seemed to coincide with Terumi Mei's first battle against Konoha...
Could it be that...?
Terumi Mei smiled lightly and picked up the child. "It's almost time, Hokage-sama."
"That's all for today's exchange."
"Ao, you should go back."
Ao nodded calmly, got up silently, and headed towards the envoy's mansion arranged by Konoha.
But Terumi Mei walked in another direction slowly. That direction is......
Tsunade suddenly understood everything, and uncontrollable anger surged inside her.
"Damn Natsuo! You are dishonest on the battlefield!" She was furious, endless anger emerged from her eyes, as if she wanted to burn this sinful world to the ground.
The so-called 'strongest Mizukage' is a lie, right?
'Damn Natsuo, I was worried that your pupil power has been depleted too much, which will affect your vision.'
'Give me back my worry!'
...
Terumi Mei continued walking with the child in her arms towards the Uchiha clan residence. She completely ignored the other wives, simply smiling as she carried the child to where Natsuo was.
"Natsuo, do you think this child is very similar to you?" Terumi Mei smiled lightly, with a bit of resentment in her eyes. "You're a bad man, it's been so long since our son was born, and you haven't even come to see him..."
That look of reproach could melt even a man's bones. But that didn't faze Natsuo.
Natsuo said affectionately: "Stay and live in the Uchiha clan from now on, we can see each other every day."
"Why don't you come to Kirigakure? I promise to give you better treatment than in Konoha."
