Chapter 220 Shock! Qing actually...
"Master Yuan... Master Yuan is dead!"

A piercing scream echoed throughout Kirigakure. Upon hearing this cry, Hikari and Gonbei's expressions suddenly changed drastically.

Whoosh~~
Whoosh~~
The two of them disregarded all etiquette and jumped up instantly.

The crowd was left standing on the ground, bewildered and discussing amongst themselves.

"Master Yuanshi!!!"

Upon entering, seeing the old, blood-covered figure slumped in a chair, both of them felt their hearts break, and their steps faltered.

"Master Yuanshi."

Kwon Bing-e stepped forward to check her breath. She really had stopped breathing?!

He and Bi, who was standing next to him, exchanged a glance, and both of them saw confusion and helplessness in each other's eyes!
The sky is falling!

The two of them, especially Quan Bingwei, had followed Master Yuan for decades, and their bond was exceptionally deep.

Both of them knew that the current stability of Wuyin was entirely due to Master Yuan's management.

More importantly, given the current international situation, whether it's the Hidden Cloud Village, which has completely lost its Jinchūriki and even its Kage, or the Hidden Sand Village, which suffered a heavy defeat, the world is on the brink of war.

In such a turbulent ninja world, a village that was already weakened by the Blood Mist Village needed an experienced person to take charge and manage the situation!

As it turned out, Master Yuan appeared at this very moment.
As if struck by lightning, Quan Bingwei staggered and almost lost his balance.

"Lord Kwonbei!"

Bi rushed forward and quickly helped him steady.

huh~~
huh~~
Quan Bingwei took a few deep breaths to prevent himself from getting too agitated.

In an instant, he calmed down, his eyes suddenly turning fierce. "Bi, the village must be sealed off immediately. This news must not get out!"

With eyes as fierce as an eagle's, the two doormen felt as if they were being watched by a wild beast.

Yes! Right away!

Bi also realized what was happening and immediately rushed downstairs to find trusted ninjas and ANBU members to issue orders.

In any case, the news of Master Yuan's death could only be kept within the Hidden Mist Village.

In addition, an arrest warrant must be issued for Qing.

Although it's a bit strange, whatever the reason, we have to catch them first!

After Bi left, Quan Bingwei's eyes glared at the two gatekeepers like knives, and he figured he should investigate those two gatekeepers too.

at the same time.

Downstairs, the scene was already a complete mess!

"Did I hear that right? Master Yuan, he..."

"Lord Yuan is dead?"

Some people gasped, "This...this must be fake, right?"

"It was Lord Qing who jumped out just now. He was arguing with Master Yuan. Surely Lord Qing couldn't have killed Master Yuan, could he? Why?"

"Didn't you hear that? Ao wanted Mei Terumi to become the Mizukage, but Master Genshi preferred Lord Zabuza."

"This"

Some people, upon hearing this reason, kept saying "this" but couldn't utter a next word.

But how could their beloved Master Yuan have died like this?
He didn't believe it, and no one else could accept it either.

Sudden.

Bi jumped down from the building, her stern gaze sweeping over everyone present, finally spotting a member of the Anbu.

Okra!

"Lord Bi."

A seemingly honest-looking young man from the ANBU, named Okra, stepped out from the crowd.

"Summon all secret agents and block the news from coming."

There's also a full-scale manhunt for Qing!

"Yes!" Okra hopped away in a flash.

Bi was about to leave to take charge, but seeing the dozens of ninjas present, he coldly glanced at them all and said, "You all know how to keep a secret, right?"

"Understood, Lord Bi!" ×N
swoosh~
After Bi left, everyone looked at each other and immediately realized that what had just happened might actually be true.

The roof of a building not far away.

Naruto stood there quietly and coldly.

His figure seemed to blend into his surroundings, inconspicuous at all, yet he had witnessed everything that had just happened.

"Are they just going to suppress the message like that?"

Naruto's lips curled into a smile, as if he were eyeing his prey. "Too bad, I won't let you get away with this so easily." He opened the chat interface.

[Uzumaki Great Unification: The Death of the Grand Master.jpg]
Naruto sent a series of photos taken using the game camera to Tetsuya.

[Uzumaki Great Unification: Tomorrow, I want everyone in the ninja world to know this message!]
[Minazuki Tetsuju: Yes, boss!]
As Naruto closed the chat interface, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

"Hidden Mist~ A storm is coming~"

swoosh~
After a flash of light, Naruto disappeared.

The news that Kirigakure was trying to suppress will spread throughout the world at an extremely fast pace tomorrow, thanks to Naruto and the news group's help!

Of course, as beta testers, Konoha already knew the news that very night.

That night, in Konoha Village.

The peaceful and harmonious Konoha was draped in a veil of night, with every household lighting up their lights, and the commercial street still bustling with activity.

Meanwhile, Tsunade, as the Hokage, was still working overtime at the Hokage Building, sorting out the complicated matters following the handover of her duties.

"咚咚-"

There was a sudden knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Busy Tsunade didn't even have time to look up, keeping her head buried in her chest, amidst the piles of documents.

"Tsunade-sama!"

An ANBU member entered and reported, "News from Root: Kirigakure's master ninja, Ao, was killed by Kirigakure's Jonin. Ao is currently wanted by Kirigakure!"

"what?"

Tsunade looked up in astonishment, her face filled with disbelief.

After getting to know each other over the past few days, if she remembered correctly, Genji was the equivalent of the Mizukage in Kirigakure, while Ao seemed to be the guy in Kirigakure who got a Byakugan through the war.

Why would Bai Yanqing assassinate Master Yuan for no reason and then flee?

For a moment, Tsunade even thought she had been working too long and had become a little confused!

"Can you say that again!"

"After killing the Kirigakure Jonin Ao, he fled and is currently being pursued by Kirigakure!"

"Boom-"

Tsunade couldn't help but slam her fist on the table!
This is truly unexpected!
can.

What will happen next?

She had a rough idea, but with so many major events happening in the ninja world recently, from the chaos in Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning to the defeat of Sunagakure, she was unsure what would happen next.

"Quickly, get the Third Hokage and Nara Shikaku from the Jonin team over here to give us some advice!"

"correct."

Just as the Anbu were about to leave, she called out to them, "Have Naruto come over here too."

"Yes!"

Naruto himself was not in the village; he was enjoying a wonderful rest at his vacation hotel!
This matter was handled entirely by Xuanwo Bamboo Shoots.

The lights in the Hokage Building remained on until dawn.

the next day.

A news story that made the front page spread like an earthquake around the world!
Ninja World Daily: [Internal strife in Kirigakure: Jonin Ao murders leader Genshi and escapes]
As the most authoritative newspaper in the ninja world, the Ninja World Daily is quite 'neutral' as long as it doesn't involve Naruto's interests!

Of course, it only appears to be neutral, but in reality it is far from neutral!
The Water Country Observatory: [Heinous! To make Terumi Mei the Water Kage, Ao murdered Master Genji on the spot!]
As the 'front line of war,' the Water Country Observer naturally smuggled in a lot of personal agendas.

The author addressed Master Yuan with great familiarity, and the article also promoted Master Yuan's achievements, as if the author held Master Yuan in very high esteem.

They even held a 'virtual' funeral for Master Yuan on the spot.

However, the latter half focuses on the key point that "Ao did this so that Terumi Mei would become the Mizukage".

Such a great Yuan Master was brutally murdered by the killer 'Qing'! Qing is utterly wicked!

So, what about Mei Terumi behind Ao—no, what about that woman?

The Water Country Observer did not explicitly state this.

But at the end, it sarcastically remarked: Who knows what role that woman played behind the scenes?

Hey ~
Our beloved Master Yuan! You will live forever in our hearts!

Although the entire text doesn't mention Mei Terumi at all, it's all about Mei Terumi.

The Land of Waves Times: [Shocking! A Jonin killed a Kage for this very reason!]
The Land of Lightning's Honest Gazette: [Shocking! Internal strife erupts in Kirigakure, Jonin assassinates Kage-level elder!]
As the next day arrived, countless people saw this news.
