I teach in Naruto, and the system says I am Tsunade's student

Chapter 254 Kirigakure Surrenders, War Ends (First and Second Updates)

Under the beating from Tsunade and Kitazawa, Yagura was forced to revert to his fully transformed tailed beast state.

Although he did not faint, he had lost his fighting ability.

The disappearance of the Three-Tailed Isobu immediately drew the attention of everyone in Kirigakure.

"Quickly, go save Lord Mizukage!"

Qing glanced at it, her pupils dilated immediately, and she shouted anxiously.

The fact that Tsunade and Kitazawa were standing unharmed in the same spot can only mean one thing.

Yagura was defeated by them, and it was a crushing defeat.

Although Qing was shocked, now was not the time to be shocked; saving lives was the priority.

However, he was entangled with Hiashi Hyuga and could not break free for the time being.

The two are evenly matched.

To be more precise, he was somewhat inferior to Hiashi Hyuga.

Mei Terumi is the fastest.

Although she was fighting against three opponents, Kabuto Yakushi, Kurenai Yuhi, and Izumi Uchiha did not put enough pressure on her.

Upon hearing Ao's call, she immediately disengaged from the battle and came to stand before Yagura.

In addition, many ninjas from Kirigakure also came over.

Kitazawa glanced at Kurenai and the others.

After confirming that they were alright, I felt relieved.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but smile.

Zabuza Momochi wanted to support Yagura Karatachi, but Itachi Uchiha seized the opportunity and knocked him unconscious and captured him.

"I discovered that the Fourth Mizukage was being controlled by someone."

Seeing that the time was ripe, Kitazawa lowered his head and whispered in Tsunade's ear.

"what?"

Tsunade was immediately shocked.

Even she couldn't remain calm upon hearing such news.

A Kage is a figure at the pinnacle of ninjas.

The Five Kage are the five most powerful ninjas in the ninja world.

Moreover, the prerequisite for becoming a Shadow is having absolute strength.

Each Kage possesses unparalleled strength in the ninja world.

Now Kitazawa is telling her that even shadows can be controlled, which sounds like a complete fantasy.

"You're not kidding?"

Tsunade couldn't help but ask.

"You know, I am a genjutsu ninja."

Kitazawa fabricated a story, saying, "In a previous battle, I tried to control the Fourth Mizukage with genjutsu, but it didn't work."

"He is a perfect Jinchūriki, so he is not afraid of genjutsu. You must have misjudged him."

Tsunade still didn't believe it.

"The perfect Jinchuriki is not afraid of genjutsu because the tailed beast inside him will help dispel the genjutsu."

Kitazawa paused for a moment, then asked in return, "What if the genjutsu is powerful enough to control both the jinchūriki and the tailed beast together?"

"How can this be?"

Tsunade frowned, shook her head, and asked, "What kind of genjutsu is that terrifying?"

"Actually, there is."

Kitazawa thought for a moment and then reminded him, "The Nine-Tails' rampage."

He originally wanted to say Mangekyou Sharingan, but given his current status, he shouldn't know about that.

Unless it was Tsunade or Itachi Uchiha who told him.

But nothing.

Fortunately, the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage has the same effect.

"Was it done by that mysterious enemy who controlled the Nine-Tails back then?"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade's gaze sharpened, and she subconsciously asked a question.

"maybe."

Kitazawa blinked and said, "I was just giving an example."

"If what you say is true, then the Fourth Mizukage's sudden declaration of war has a reasonable explanation."

Tsunade said thoughtfully, "It seems that this mysterious enemy wants to weaken our Konoha Village."

Kitazawa was slightly taken aback.

Although the guess sounds inaccurate, it makes a surprising sense.

At least the result is correct.

The same mysterious enemy who controlled the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, and who instigated the Nine-Tails' rampage was Obito Uchiha.

"Ah."

Kitazawa nodded and said.

It's not a bad thing to let Tsunade know in advance.

Even after she becomes Hokage, she can still put Konoha on guard.

Then Kitazawa can pretend to send someone to investigate, which could leak information about the Akatsuki organization to Tsunade.

Ninja warfare is intelligence warfare.

As long as there is enough intelligence, the members of Akatsuki are not so scary.

The only problem is Nagato and his Rinnegan.

After all, this thing is a combination of numerical and mechanical monsters.

Even if you know the intelligence in advance, it's still very difficult to fight.

However, Konoha Village also has its stat monsters, such as Naruto Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

But that's all for the future.

"It's a disgrace that Konoha and Kirigakure fought to this point only because of the instigation of a mysterious enemy!"

Tsunade took a deep breath and shouted, "Stop it, all of you!"

As expected, the secret passage in Kitazawa was indeed there.

Upon learning of Obito Uchiha's existence, Tsunade immediately stopped the war.

After all, continuing a manipulated war will only allow the hidden enemy to get what they want.

Although Konoha Village has gained the upper hand, it will still have to pay a considerable price to achieve a complete victory.

Upon hearing Tsunade's words, the Konoha ninjas immediately distanced themselves from the Kirigakure ninjas.

The ninjas of Kirigakure were concerned for Yagura Karatachi and did not linger in battle.

"You're lucky."

Hiashi Hyuga glanced at Ao, then turned and walked towards Tsunade.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides were locked in a standoff at sea.

But everyone except Kitazawa felt puzzled.

Especially the ninjas of Kirigakure, why did Konoha suddenly stop fighting when they had already gained a great advantage?

"Kitazawa, you tell us."

Faced with everyone's gaze, Tsunade suddenly changed her words.

"Haven't you noticed that there's something wrong with your Fourth Mizukage?"

Kitazawa stepped forward and asked.

"What do you mean?"

Qing was immediately startled.

They had naturally noticed Yagura's various irrational behaviors long ago, but had yet to find the reason.

"The Fourth Mizukage has been controlled by genjutsu, and everything he is doing now is not voluntary."

Kitazawa said directly.

"impossible!"

Qing subconsciously denied it.

Mei Terumi and the others all wore expressions of disbelief.

If Yagura was controlled, it means that they were obeying the orders of an outsider from beginning to end.

The significance of this war became extremely frustrating.

In particular, those ninjas who sacrificed their lives in this war became clowns, wasting their lives in vain.

"You roll your eyes; you can tell just by looking at you."

Kitazawa said calmly, "Use your Byakugan to examine his brain chakra."

The essence of illusion is to achieve mental attacks by manipulating the five senses or the flow of chakra in the brain.

If Yagura Karatachi is controlled by genjutsu, then there will be a mass of chakra in his brain that does not belong to him.

Of course, it's not so easy to be discovered.

Ao had activated his Byakugan during the battle, but he hadn't noticed Yagura's problem.

The main reason is that the interference from Yagura's own chakra plus the Three-Tails' chakra is too great.

Upon hearing this, Ao immediately activated her Byakugan and looked towards Yagura's head.

The next second, his body trembled, and the expression on his face froze completely.

Was what Kitazawa said actually true?
He didn't know what kind of emotion he should feel for a moment.

If he had discovered it sooner, could this war have been avoided?
"How...how is it?"

Terumi Mei asked belatedly.

She didn't know whether she hoped it was true or false.

"it is true."

Qing said with a complicated expression.

"what?"

Mei Terumi subconsciously took a half step back.

The other Hidden Mist Village ninjas found it even more unacceptable.

They thought they were loyal to the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, but now they realize they weren't.

What did all that they did become?
Ao walked towards Yagura.

He formed a hand seal and immediately dispelled the illusion.

Yagura was severely injured, so he did not resist.

After the illusion was dispelled, he stood there stunned.

A flood of memories rushed into my mind.

These are all things he did after he was controlled.

Yagura's expression immediately became quite interesting.

As the Mizukage, he was supposed to protect the villagers and ninjas of Kirigakure.

But what about him?
After he was controlled, the Blood Mist Village became even more dangerous, and countless Hidden Mist Village ninjas died because of him.

In particular, countless ninjas with bloodline limits have died.

It's no exaggeration to say that Kirigakure was weakened by a third because of his actions.

"Mizukage-sama."

Qing couldn't help but sigh.

"I am not worthy to be the Water Shadow."

After a two-second silence, Yagura Karatachi said, "Elect a new Mizukage as soon as the war ends."

Qing hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

Strictly speaking, Yagura did not do anything wrong.

The only mistake was that I was too weak and was controlled by others.

But we can't blame him.

Anyone who were put in charge of the Hidden Mist Village would be controlled.

After all, Yagura Karatachi was already the strongest in Kirigakure.

However, he ultimately indirectly caused heavy losses to Kirigakure, so it was indeed very inappropriate for him to continue serving as Mizukage.

Yagura steadied himself.

He is still the Fourth Mizukage and has to clean up the mess he created.

Especially since this war cannot continue. "Princess Tsunade, our Hidden Mist Village is willing to concede defeat."

Yagura looked at Tsunade and said, "In a while, Kirigakure will send a ninja delegation to Konoha for peace talks."

The war has escalated to this point; it's impossible to dismiss it all as a misunderstanding.

The only option is to concede defeat and negotiate compensation.

This is a necessary sacrifice.

Otherwise, Konoha could have continued fighting until Kirigakure begged for mercy.

"Alright, let's end this war here."

Tsunade nodded upon hearing this.

She was very satisfied with Kirigakure's attitude.

Although she sympathized with Kirigakure, Kirigakure was essentially an enemy of Konoha.

Furthermore, Konoha Village has paid a considerable price for this war and must take it back from Kirigakure Village.

At the very least, we can't lose money.

War is a war of attrition; it's a war of money.

The ninjas who sacrificed their lives or made meritorious contributions in Konoha Village all needed a lot of money.

These are all things that need to be resolved through negotiations with Kirigakure.

After all, Konoha Village was the victor and deserved the spoils of war.

There's no need to continue fighting.

The Hidden Mist Village suffered a devastating defeat, and the Hidden Leaf Village was also in trouble, not to mention the other ninja villages like the Hidden Cloud Village, which were eyeing the village covetously.

"Please treat the captured Kirigakure ninjas well."

Yagura added, "We'll switch them back then."

"This is natural."

Tsunade nodded and said.

"I see."

Yagura bowed slightly and said, "Finally, thank you for Princess Tsunade's timely discovery."

Although Konoha Village inflicted heavy casualties on them, he was still under control without Tsunade.

There might be even more serious consequences.

"This mysterious person instigated the war between us and is a common enemy of Konoha and Kirigakure."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "I'm helping you because I'm helping Konoha."

"Princess Tsunade, I hope that our two ninja villages can share information about this mysterious person."

"I think for a moment," said Yagura, a mango-colored mango tree.

"no problem."

Tsunade agreed without hesitation.

The efficiency of investigating one person is much higher when two major ninja villages work together.

"Then we'll take our leave."

Yagura turned to look at Ao and Mei Terumi, and sighed inwardly, saying with guilt, "It's my fault that you've all been hurt."

"Lord Mizukage, we are all ninjas from Kirigakure, there's no need for further explanation."

Mei Terumi shook her head and said, "The most urgent task is to end this war and find the enemy who controls you."

"Let's go back!"

Yagura, roused himself, and said.

They carried the bodies of the fallen Kirigakure ninja and headed towards the Kirigakure headquarters.

As for the captured Kirigakure ninjas, such as Zabuza Momochi, they will have to endure this hardship for a while.

"Tsunade-sama."

Jingyin quickly stepped forward and asked, "How are you?"

"I feel better than ever before."

Tsunade met her worried gaze and said with a smile.

Jingyin was slightly taken aback.

What she can confirm now is that Tsunade's hemophobia has indeed been cured; otherwise, she wouldn't have beaten up Yagura so badly.

With Kitazawa safe and sound, it was truly a double blessing.

"Kitazawa!"

Kurenai Yuhi grabbed Kitazawa's hand.

"I am fine."

Kitazawa gave her a reassuring look and said.

"This isn't the place to talk, let's go back to base camp!"

Tsunade glanced at Kitazawa and said.

"Yes, Tsunade-sama."

Hiashi Hyuga, Itachi Uchiha, and the others said in unison.

The group returned along the same route.

Before they even arrived at Konoha Village's headquarters, Nara Shikaku arrived with a group of people to greet them.

"Shikaku, notify all Jonin to come to the main tent for a meeting."

Tsunade paused for a moment, then said, "In addition, terminate all war missions."

Nara Shikaku paused for a moment, then immediately guessed what was going on, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

When Tsunade issues this order, it means the war is over.

Otherwise, there's no reason to terminate all tasks.

"Yes!"

Nara Shikaku suppressed his doubts and turned to make arrangements.

"Let's go straight to the main tent and wait."

After Tsunade finished speaking, she walked into the main tent first.

Hiashi Hyuga and Kitazawa followed closely behind.

Although many ninjas at the Konoha Village headquarters were asleep, they rushed to the main tent as quickly as possible after receiving the order.

In less than ten minutes, the main tent was already filled with Jonin.

"I have something to announce now."

Tsunade smiled and announced loudly, "The Hidden Mist Village has voluntarily surrendered!"

"Admitting defeat? Does that mean the war is over?"

"Why so sudden?"

"we won?"

Most Jonin's first reaction is confusion, not excitement.

"Mute, you'll answer everyone's questions."

Tsunade understood why they had those expressions.

After all, the war ended too unexpectedly and dramatically.

"Ok."

Shizune stepped forward and began to recount what had happened that day.

From the moment Kitazawa fell into the Hidden Mist Village's trap until the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, broke free of the genjutsu control and voluntarily surrendered.

After Jingyin finished speaking, the main tent fell into a deathly silence.

If it were someone else, they would definitely think it was a joke.

Tonight's events were so convoluted and bizarre that they felt like they were listening to a story.

First, Kitazawa and Yagura fought to a standstill, then it was discovered that Yagura was being controlled by illusion magic.

"Everyone performed very well in this war. When we return to the village, the old man will definitely give us an extra reward."

Tsunade paused for a moment and then said, "Especially Kitazawa, he deserves the most credit for the quick victory in this war."

Uchiha Hachiro, Hyuga Hiashi, Nara Shikaku, and the others all nodded upon hearing this.

Even if they wanted to claim credit, they couldn't win.

Kitazawa was indeed too outstanding in this war.

First, he killed powerful figures from Kirigakure, including Ringo Ameyuri, Suigetsu Hozuki, and Kisame Hoshigaki.

Secondly, he led Kurenai Yuhi and Kabuto Yakushi in many high-difficulty missions, the most of any ninja team.

Thirdly, tonight they held off the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, and discovered he was under a genjutsu, thus ending the war.

"Lu Jiu, pass on the message."

Tsunade turned to look at Nara Shikaku and said, "Have someone send some to the old man as well."

"Yes, Tsunade-sama."

Nara Shikaku quickly replied.

"Alright, everyone, you've all had a long night. Go and get some rest."

Tsunade announced the end of the temporary meeting in just a few words.

After everyone else left, only Kitazawa remained.

"Kitazawa".

Tsunade stared at him for two seconds before saying, "Thank you."

Why should you say thank you?

Kitazawa shook his head and said, "If you hadn't arrived in time tonight, I would definitely have perished at sea."

"I mean hemophobia."

Those beautiful dreams resurfaced in Tsunade's mind.

She subconsciously looked away.

"It's mainly thanks to Yakumo."

Kitazawa said modestly.

"I know whose credit it is."

Tsunade waved her hand and said, "Go and rest."

"Ah."

Kitazawa turned and left.

"Kitazawa".

Kurenai Yuhi greeted them at the entrance of the main tent.

"Teacher Kitazawa."

Kabuto Yakushi, Torune Aburame, and Izumi Uchiha were also present.

"It's over. Go back and get some sleep. We can talk about it tomorrow."

Kitazawa smiled and said.

"Yes, Kitazawa-sensei."

The three of them, including Kabuto, relaxed.

You scared me half to death tonight!

Kurenai Yuhi gave a light snort, nudged Kitazawa with her elbow, and said.

"Sorry, it's my fault."

Kitazawa blinked and said, "I'll make it up to you tomorrow."

Kurenai Yuhi was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed red.

She naturally understood Kitazawa's unspoken meaning.

"Stop making trouble, go to sleep now!"

Kurenai glared at him and then burrowed into the covers.

She and Kitazawa drifted off to sleep, but the other ninjas at Konoha's headquarters were too excited to sleep after hearing the news of the victory.

The two-and-a-half-month-long war has finally come to an end, and they have won a resounding victory.

Everyone felt an unprecedented excitement.

With the war over, the next step was to reward those who had contributed to the victory.

Everyone will receive a certain reward.

While they were celebrating this joyous moment, a group of ANBU ninjas left the headquarters at lightning speed and headed towards Konoha Village.
