Naruto Uchiha, the former God of the Space!

Chapter 63 Calling for the Water Shadow

The Land of Water.

Military port of Wuyin Village.

A group of Hidden Mist ninjas, who were on duty here awaiting orders from the front lines, were filled with extreme fear.

It was all because a wooden dragon was flying rapidly toward them.

Because the sea fog wasn't thick, everyone could vaguely see their own Mizukage, Yagura, which was suspended by vines.

Like wild boars captured in the wild with nets by ninja academy students during their field training—

Uchiha Shu, leading the East Blue Squad and a small number of elite Anbu members, stood atop the wooden dragon head. He calmly said, "Lord Mizukage, order them to lay down their weapons and surrender."

"You wouldn't want to see them die meaninglessly, becoming nourishment for Wood Release techniques, would you?"

"————" Yagura, the tachibana manga artist, looked embarrassed.

This military port is garrisoned by a thousand ninja soldiers, including eighty Jonin. The leader of the team is none other than Zabuza Momochi, a demon with Kage-level strength. His so-called silent killing technique is fine for dealing with ordinary Jonin, but it is a joke in front of Kage-level soldiers.

"All personnel, listen to my command—"

"surrender!"

Out of a desire to protect the last vestiges of the village, Shidai Mizu, enduring the humiliation, shouted, "Surrender!"

"Lord Mizukage————"

The ninja from the Land of Water looked extremely reluctant.

We were about to fight to the death, so why did Shuiying surrender first?

It is at least honorable to die in a foreign war than to die in a pointless, bloody internal purge.

More than three hours have passed since the frontline troops attacking the coastline went missing. Everyone was mentally prepared!

"I said, surrender." Yagura Karatachi forcefully repeated his order, his tone softening, with a hint of a sob in his voice: "Don't make pointless sacrifices."

What use is an iron will against the Fifth Hokage? It merely transforms into nutrients for the forest with every breath, nourishing Uchiha Shu himself and making him stronger with each battle.

"Yes." Zabuza exhaled, releasing his hand from the Executioner's Blade. "Wait for Master's orders. I..."

"Ao, Mei Terumi, Kisame Hoshigaki, and that guy named Chojuro—maybe we can find an opportunity to capture the Hokage alive within the country."

"This fool is too arrogant. He abandoned the main force and led a small team of less than thirty people to invade the Land of Water."

97

As for Yagura Karatachi? After being muddle-headed for so many years, he finally managed to straighten up and showed some of the competence he had when he first took office as Mizukage, but ended up losing his mission and becoming a mere gatekeeper Mizukage.

"You beastly Uchiha!" The Fourth Hokage wished he had a pair of Sharingan eyes; he was absolutely certain he could awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan.

My worst-case scenario was to study abroad in Konoha.

Unexpectedly, I had to knock on the door in public before I could even go there.

Faced with the anger and confusion on his subordinates' faces, he truly regretted listening to Luo Sha's advice and joining this war. He should have made arrangements for his affairs and ended his life as soon as the illusion was lifted!

"Studying abroad, knocking on the door, the ninja version of Zhu Qizhen, the war god of the Ming Dynasty."

Uchiha Shu couldn't help but laugh. Ever since he launched the Konoha version of the Xiangji Temple attack, the ninja world has become more and more interesting.

"Beast!"

Hearing a mocking chuckle, Yagura's face flushed red. He was so angry that he wanted to tear Uchiha Shu's flesh apart and sleep on his skin.

A short while later.

With the help of ninjutsu and various distorted technological devices, news of the Mizukage's capture and subsequent summons reached Kirigakure. The ninjas on duty in the village and those completing their final reorganization were thrown into chaos and immediately went to ask the master to take charge of the situation.

Judging by position alone, the position of elder is not as prestigious as that of the Mizukage. However, due to his virtue and prestige, coupled with the inhuman behavior of Yagura Karatachi over the years, he has gradually gained power that surpasses that of the Mizukage and has the right to appoint the next generation of Mizukage.

"Things have come to this point—"

The old, hunched-over Master Yuan sighed, leaning on his cane, "Alas, let's rescue the Water Shadow first."

After all, Yagura Karatachi is still the military leader of the Land of Water, symbolizing the face of the country and the village. In addition, he is also a Jinchuriki of a Tailed Beast. After the mysterious disappearance of the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, Uta, he cannot be lost!

Buying the Tailed Beasts from the First Hokage was the most profitable deal the Land of Water had ever made.

We will absolutely not allow unscrupulous businesses to come and collect our products.

"The Hokage entered the Land of Water with only a small number of guards."

Next, as Uchiha Shu controlled the wooden dragon on his way to Kirigakure, news spread like wildfire.

In short: The advantage is in my hands!

The Mist Ninja naturally assumed that the massive defeat at the front lines was due to the Hokage secretly mobilizing a large army, setting up an ambush, and wiping out their front-line troops in one fell swoop.

Rather than relying on the efforts of one person.

Because this is so counterintuitive.

If Uchiha Shu possessed the power of Hashirama to single-handedly destroy a country, why would he have retreated during that bloody night targeting Iwagakure? He could have simply stormed through.

at last!

Uchiha Shu arrived in the disloyal Blood Mist Village.

By order of the master, all the ninja units stationed at various military fortresses and ports were also concentrated around the village during this period.

"Not even fifty people!"

"Two thousand to twenty, it's a sure thing!!"

Uchiha Shu stretched and looked down at the many Mist Ninja with hostile expressions. He couldn't help but sigh, "What a great workforce! One ordinary ninja farming could feed at least several hundred ordinary people."

"It would be a shame if he died."

Shuiying's vision went black.

His forbearance and humiliation were all to preserve the last shred of dignity of the village as one of the five great nations!

Killing a ninja is easy, but training one is very difficult.

"Release Lord Mizukage!"

As fate would have it, a fierce-looking ninja with a scarred face stood directly in front of the wooden dragon, staring at the massive five-clawed dragon, and loudly warned Uchiha Xiu: "Otherwise, today I'll make sure you stay here forever—"

Bang! Before he could finish speaking, a sexy female ninja with a mature and alluring aura kicked him away!

"idiot."

Mei Terumi cursed under her breath at the mentally ill Jonin she had kicked away, who was also a die-hard fan of the Fourth Mizukage.

The Blood Mist Village policy has, in turn, purified a batch of bloodthirsty Yagura crystal powder.

Don't they realize that even their strongest Mizukage was captured alive by the enemy? How many people would they have to sacrifice to successfully reclaim it using sheer numbers?

Resolving the issue through negotiation is naturally the best option.

After all, the weak and powerless nation of the water, having lost its main frontline troops, dared not make any more enemies.

Especially since the opponent is the Kage of the most powerful and wealthiest ninja village among the five great nations.

If Konoha and Kirigakure become irreconcilable enemies, even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse; Kirigakure in the Land of Water will definitely be reduced to ruins, and wiped out like Uzushiogakure in the Land of Whirlpools.

Closing the country off from the world and allowing it to recuperate for ten or even fifteen years is the best model for governing a village, according to Zhao Meiming.

Hmm—in order to make money, we could designate a few ports to open for trade, develop foreign trade, and learn about the situation in the Ninja World.

"Lord Hokage."

Composing herself, Mei Terumi, whose mind was clearer than most of the villagers, raised her eyes and called out to Uchiha Shu atop the wooden dragon, "Please come down and talk. If Kirigakure admits defeat, we can form an alliance with Konoha and the Land of Fire, just like the Land of Wind."

Then, remembering that Rasa had treated the brotherhood pact like toilet paper and overdrawn the credibility of the alliance treaty by launching a fierce attack on the Land of Fire from the west, Mei Terumi added, "We, the high-ranking officials of Kirigakure, are not a fickle and treacherous group; we will keep our promises."
