The Senju remnants of the Uchiha clan

Chapter 144: The Masked Man Living in the Shadow of the White Bird

For the masked man, Uchiha Shiratori has always played a very annoying role in his life——

Before leaving Konoha, this was the typical "other people's child"; after leaving Konoha, this was the typical "other people's boss"...

Compared to Shiratori, the masked man was a complete failure.

Both are owners of the Mangekyō Sharingan. Compared to the "righteous and noble" deeds done by Shiratori, although he calls himself "Uchiha Madara", what he does are all petty and shady things.

Whose Uchiha Madara can only be a rat in the dark? Besides, Shiratori has two Mangekyō, and he only has one, so he has already lost in terms of numbers.

So compared to the original timeline, Nagato and Konan had no respect for him at all.

Not to mention his boss behind the scenes, the two of them basically showed the attitude of looking at an ordinary partner with a different personality, or the kind of person who came to seek help out of pity...

He now even lacks the confidence to play tricks, for fear of being exposed in front of others and being embarrassed.

"You said Uchiha Shiratori is in the Water Country now? What is he doing here?" The masked man stared at Black Zetsu with an unfriendly tone.

Isn't the huge Konoha Village enough for you to mess around with?! Are you just sitting there doing nothing?!
"His whereabouts are rather secretive, but he did appear in the Land of Water... According to reliable sources, he seems to have come to take back the Byakugan that the Hidden Mist Village obtained..."

"Give it to him! And then get him out of here quickly!" The masked man looked very angry.

"It seems that Uchiha Shiratori has obtained the Byakugan, because Kirigakure's jonin Ao has gone missing."

"So the bastard is leaving?"

"No, it should still be in the Water Country..."

"Why is he still lingering here when he's already got the white eye? Is he waiting for me to treat him to a meal?" the masked man growled.

An innocent look appeared on Hei Zetsu's face.

How should I know...You ask me, who should I ask?
Konan on the other side said jokingly: "Why? The legendary 'Uchiha Madara' is actually afraid of one of his younger generations?"

"It's not that I'm afraid! I just don't want to cause any more trouble! I don't want any unexpected accidents to happen!" The masked man was furious and wanted to tear the annoying woman in front of him to pieces.

"Then why don't you go kill Uchiha Shiratori now? Wouldn't that solve all the problems? This shouldn't be difficult for 'Uchiha Madara', right?"

Xiaonan obviously had no intention of letting the masked man go, and she spoke more to him today than in the previous year.

The masked man's chest heaved violently, and he didn't reply.

He didn't know what to say now... or what to brag about in order to maintain his status...

"Hehe..." Xiaonan chuckled and took a step to leave.

She didn't bother to care about the masked man, there was a "number one puppeteer in the ninja world" waiting for her to "physically persuade" him!

"Wait a moment!"

Xiaonan turned around with a blank expression.

"Wait for me three days... five days at most! I'll go back with you after I've settled things here in Kirigakure." The masked man spoke, and even his tone softened.

He had already figured out how to deal with Uchiha Shiratori.

In order to maintain stability, he had not deliberately targeted the "reformists" in the Hidden Mist Village. Since he had the Mizukage in his hands anyway, he simply turned a blind eye to avoid too much chaos. But now... it was different.

He didn't know what Shiratori's motive was for staying in the Land of Water, but he had a feeling that the other party... was coming for the Fourth Mizukage Karuta Yagura!
In this case, then those "different voices" hidden in the mist...it's time to eliminate them.

He planned to recall all the ninjas outside, wipe out the "reformists", and turn the Hidden Mist into an ironclad force. No matter how strong Uchiha Shiratori was, he could not fight against the entire Hidden Mist Village!
Even the Third Raikage could be overwhelmed by the human wave tactics of the Hidden Stone Village, so what do you, Uchiha Shiratori, have in common?
One village against one person, the advantage is on me.

"When the situation stabilizes, I will replace a Mizukage to control the Hidden Mist Village... You can take Yagura Karatachi away. It is up to you to decide whether to extract the tailed beast immediately or imprison it." The masked man said to Konan with a sincere tone.

"It should have been done long ago." Xiaonan nodded.

In fact, she never understood why the masked man was so obsessed with secretly controlling the Hidden Mist Village. He had already controlled the Mizukage, who was the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, so the Six-Tails Jinchuriki would not be a problem, but he had to go to such lengths and enthusiastically play some kind of management game here...

Regarding this, Black Zetsu beside him actually had some guesses -

What about controlling one of the five major ninja villages to cooperate with the organization's actions, what about using the intelligence network of the Hidden Mist Village, and what about using it as a second base... It's possible that they are all excuses!

Obito has always wanted to be a Hokage since he was a kid... Now he has no chance to be a Hokage, maybe he just wants to be a "Shadow Water Shadow" for once to fulfill his childhood dream...

.........

Kirigakure Village.

The Fourth Mizukage, Karutagi Yagura, issued an emergency order: All ninjas outside the village must return to the village immediately, otherwise they will be considered as deserters!
At the same time, without any warning, a large number of Anbu ninjas and the Mizukage's trusted subordinates suddenly rushed out and surrounded the Elder Master's residence.

"What do you mean? Do you want to rebel?"

Gui Deng Man Yue stood at the door holding two swords, Dieping, with an imposing manner as if he were the only one guarding the pass.

After the illusion was lifted, he had been persuaded by the elder Yuanshi to join the reformists who opposed the Mizukage.

"Man Yue, you are the ones who are rebelling, right? This is the order of the Mizukage-sama. The elder Yuanshi is suspected of colluding with foreign enemies and intending to rebel. He must accept our investigation!"

Ringo Ayuri, one of the second generation Seven Ninja Swordsmen and the holder of Raitouga, stepped forward and looked into Mangetsu's eyes without giving in.

The tradition of infighting among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen was successfully inherited by the second generation - Mangetsu Hozuki and Ayuri Ringo have always been at odds with each other, and they also looked down on the only remaining members of the first generation, Xiguashan Fuguki and Muri Shinpachi.

At this time, the reformist ninjas led by Mei Terumi also rushed here urgently. The two sides took their positions and began a confrontation without giving in to each other. It seemed that a war was about to break out.

"Mei Terumi, Jonin..." Ringo Yuyuri looked at Mei Terumi standing side by side with Mangetsu Kizuna and said murderously, "With so many people... are you also planning to rebel? Are you going to disobey the order of the Mizukage?"

"Ameyuri Jonin, the Mizukage-sama has been under the control of illusions these years. The orders you received did not come from the Mizukage-sama at all!"

"Really?"

The two sides of the Anbu formation split apart, and a "boy" with a baby face and short stature walked over.

Mei Terumi and Mangetsu Hozuki's pupils shrank at the same time——

"Mizukage...sama..."

The person who came was none other than the Fourth Mizukage, Karutagi Yagura!
