The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

The Third Mizukage was conducting his deductions, extremely wary.

According to the Third Mizukage.

It's good that you dealt a heavy blow to the other party.

However, only one person suffered a severe blow.

But he himself died.

Furthermore, when the Third Mizukage placed Obito Uchiha and others in Konoha's camp.

This fake "Konoha faction" is indeed quite terrifying.

The situation deduced by the Third Mizukage and the actual situation in the original story as understood by Uehara Osamu were not exactly the same, but rather completely unrelated.

Uehara Shu couldn't help but mutter a complaint in his mind.

Are you the Third Mizukage, Kogoro Mouri?

However, based on the known information, the Third Mizukage's reasoning was actually quite reasonable.

Obito Uchiha was a rogue ninja from Konoha.

Nagato and Konan are members of the Akatsuki organization.

The Third Mizukage mistook them all for Konoha ninjas.

Because Obito Uchiha had the Sharingan and Wood Release.

If he had one, the Third Mizukage wouldn't have been so determined.

However, given that they could have two at the same time, the Third Mizukage only believed in one possibility: that they were Konoha ninjas.

The true mastermind behind the Three-Tails incident was Madara Uchiha.

The Third Mizukage also recommended it to Konoha.

Madara Uchiha's Sharingan genjutsu, along with Konoha's ability to control the tailed beasts, led the Third Mizukage to believe that this was Konoha's plan, and there was no other possibility.

Not long after, Qing returned.

"Mizukage-sama."

Qing looked at the Skeleton Emperor, feeling somewhat flustered.

The Hidden Mist Village, which was thriving and showing signs of improvement, was suddenly struck by this event. What impact will this have on the Hidden Mist Village? Can the Hidden Mist Village maintain its stability?

In Qing's heart, there was no answer.

"Qing, how is the situation?"

"Reporting to Lord Mizukage, the Anbu ninjas have not found anything unusual so far. The place where you were ambushed is now deserted, with only traces of the battle remaining."

Qing said, "I have followed your orders and placed the Anbu ninjas on high alert."

The third Mizukage nodded.

"The situation is very serious."

"If we fail to respond effectively in time, it could be a huge disaster for our Hidden Mist Village."

The Third Mizukage looked at Ao.

"Qing, could you run this errand for me one more time?"

"Lord Mizukage, what do you need me to do?"

"Go find Master Yuan and have him secretly come to Forging Island."

"Yes."

Yuan Shi, one of the elders of Kirigakure.

Moreover, he was an elder with real power.

It can be said that in Kirigakure, his status is second only to the Mizukage.

Just like Danzo of Konoha.

Chiyo of Sunagakure.

However, Yuan Shi's strength is not very strong.

He is even older than the Third Mizukage and has a very long career.

One of the things that impressed Uehara Shu most about the Genji was that Terumi Mei was a ninja trained by the Genji faction.

While almost the entire Hidden Mist Village adopted the Blood Mist Village policy to select young ninjas, the Master faction did not seem to use this method, but rather conducted its selection in other ways.

After Qing left, the forging room fell silent.

The Third Mizukage looked tired and weak.

Uehara Shu didn't disturb them, but instead looked at the semi-transparent panel in front of him.

Reputation: 1352.

In an instant, I gained several hundred reputation points.

Uehara Shu was quite certain that this was due to the increased prestige brought about by the Third Mizukage using the Skeleton Emperor.

"Obito Uchiha, Nagato, and Konan alone shouldn't be able to bring in this much prestige."

"It is very likely that some of the White Zetsu also learned about the Skeleton Emperor."

White Zetsu are also living beings, and also humans.

It's just that under the influence of the divine tree's power, my body has undergone some changes, and I've lost my previous memories.

Obito Uchiha had a high level of trust in White Zetsu, and he almost never hid information from her.

It's possible that several of them are hidden within the Divine Might Space.

Moreover, White Zetsu are creatures that can easily hide.

Who knows, maybe one of them is hidden in some pile of dirt or among some rotten wood.

Chapter 128 The Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure

This was the first time that Uehara Shu had seen his reputation rise, yet he couldn't muster any enthusiasm.

The Third Mizukage might not have been that strong individually.

His behavior and actions are also too radical.

But for Uehara Osamu, the Third Mizukage hadn't done anything to wrong him.

However, his reminders were ignored by the Third Mizukage. According to the original storyline, the Third Mizukage was already dead, but he could still "live" by attaching himself to the Skeleton Emperor.

Uehara Osamu knew that he had done almost everything he could.

Within the Divine Might Space.

Konan looked at Payne's corrupted arm, and the corrupting power was still rising up the arm.

My entire arm was withered and dried up.

Xiao Nan lost her usual composure.

Pain is indeed a puppet, but he was created from Yahiko's corpse.

"What kind of bizarre ability is this?"

"Nagato, what should I do?"

Nagato remained silent for a moment.

“Sever Payne’s arm.”

"This strange power can spread along the arm; only by severing the arm can it be stopped."

"Xiao Nan, don't hesitate."

At that moment, Obito Uchiha made his move first.

"Crack!"

With a single strike, he severed Payne's arm.

The severed arm fell off.

Soon, under the influence of aging, it turned into a pitch-black mass.

Obito Uchiha looked at Pain's severed arm on the ground, his expression turning very serious.

"I never imagined that Kirigakure would possess such terrifying power."

"It will rot as soon as it touches the ground."

"It will spread further."

Konan looked at Payne, her expression becoming somewhat complicated.

Yahiko, who was already dead, is now missing an arm.

Xiao Nan felt a pang of guilt.

Yahiko died in the first place to save Konan.

Xiao Nan snapped out of her daze, looked at Payne, and asked.

"Nagato, are you alright?"

"fine."

Nagato controlled Pain and shook his head.

But in fact, Payne's severe injury also affected Nagato.

Obito Uchiha glanced at Nagato and Konan.

"That power, however terrifying, can only be used once."

"Before he died, he unleashed all his chakra, pouring all his chakra and soul power into that ninja tool, which is why he was able to unleash such power."

"Otherwise, he would have been able to use it much earlier."
