Naruto: I can decompose everything

The appearance of Wood Release and Susanoo had a very significant impact.

As time passed, the Konoha ninjas continued their frantic investigation, searching for every trace of what happened that day.

Even other ninja villages began to investigate secretly, constantly sending spies to infiltrate and track down any traces of this.

There is no other reason.

Wood Release, Susanoo...

These were once Konoha's ultimate power.

Although, as time has passed, most people in the ninja world have forgotten or are unaware of it.

But with the appearance of these two ultimate ninjutsu, the fear that had been gone has risen again.

Even according to most of the spies who conducted the investigation, neither Wood Release nor Susanoo seemed as terrifying as the legends suggested.

However, it still attracted the attention of the major ninja villages.

After all, the first leaders of the various ninja villages had all experienced the "true feelings" of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha before spending money to buy tailed beasts, so how could they forget such an experience?

If it weren't for the fact that the Third Shinobi World War had just ended and all the villages had suffered heavy losses, the so-called Fourth Shinobi World War would probably have been launched.

......

At this moment, the high-ranking officials of Iwagakure held an emergency meeting. The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, sat in the main seat, his face ashen and grim.

"The simultaneous appearance of Wood Release and Susanoo is no coincidence. Konoha either has a hidden trump card or there is external interference. Either way, it poses a threat to us. We must find out the truth as soon as possible and prepare for war!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but slam his fist on the table.

"Damn it, I underestimated Konoha. Back then, Minato Namikaze fought against 50 Jonin from Iwagakure all by himself. I thought that was his limit, but I didn't expect he was hiding his strength! It seems that Minato's death was just an internal conflict within Konoha! I shouldn't have sent those 10,000 ninja to surround and kill the Third Raikage!"

The two battles in which Iwagakure suffered the greatest losses during the Third Shinobi World War were the battle against the Third Raikage, in which they lost 10,000 ninja, and the 50 Jonin who were instantly killed by Minato Namikaze.

Therefore, they were forced to withdraw from World War III.

The sheer panic they felt upon learning that Konoha hadn't even used its full strength yet was unimaginable!

Especially...

"Susanoo... Damn it... Uchiha Madara..."

Onoki will never forget the man he met when he was young who cast a shadow over his entire life!

......

Meanwhile, the same fervor was also surging in the hearts of people in Hidden Cloud Village.

In the council hall of Kumogakure, the Fourth Raikage, A, slammed his fist on the stone table, causing the entire hall to vibrate, his tone violent:

"The power of Wood Release and Susanoo has reappeared? Whoever is behind this, daring to stir up trouble in the ninja world, the Raikage Village will not tolerate it! Issue the order to assemble the elite forces and be ready at any time! Damn it, I didn't expect Konoha to still have such fighting power after losing Minato Namikaze and the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!!!"

The Hidden Cloud Village did not suffer a significant loss of manpower during the Third Shinobi World War.

As the initiators of the Third Shinobi World War, although this war resulted in the loss of their top combat power, the Third Raikage, the village's mid-level forces survived the battle. In addition, with the rise of the First Raikage A and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, they were not lacking in high-end forces.

Originally, they were still happy about Minato Namikaze's death a few months ago, preparing to accumulate strength and think about how to start a war a few years later. They never expected to receive such news!

"Damn it!!! Uchiha, Uchiha, the power of this clan is unbelievable!!! I should have listened to that guy and found a way to bring them back to the Land of Lightning!!!"

The ancestral home of the Uchiha clan was originally located in the Land of Lightning, and they were once the noble class of the Land of Lightning. However, due to internal divisions within the clan and changes in the external situation, they moved to the Land of Fire. After the establishment of Konoha, they completely severed ties with the Land of Lightning.

Recently, news of the Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha and the Uchiha clan's isolation and suspicion by the higher-ups had already spread throughout the major ninja villages. At that time, an elder of Kumogakure suggested taking the opportunity to win over the Uchiha clan, bringing them back to the Land of Lightning and making them work for Kumogakure.

But he rejected it outright.

The Hidden Cloud Village already has two Jinchuriki, the Eight-Tails and the Two-Tails. Although he himself is strong, he is not like his father, the Third Raikage, who can easily suppress the Tailed Beasts. The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan has strange power. If they were to join, the consequences would be unimaginable if a rebellion broke out.

But now, seeing Konoha's terrifying Susanoo power reappear, A's regret grew even stronger. If they had accepted the Uchiha clan back then, Kumogakure would be the one possessing such terrifying power now.

"grown ups."

An elder cautiously stepped forward and whispered:

"The Uchiha clan is currently isolated by Konoha and in a difficult situation. Perhaps we can try to win them over again. If we succeed, we can not only weaken Konoha but also strengthen our village's fighting power, killing two birds with one stone."

Ai stopped, his eyes shifting slightly. After a moment of silence, his tone remained harsh, but now tinged with hesitation:

"Let's postpone this matter for now. First, we need to find out who is controlling Konoha's Susanoo and ascertain the Uchiha clan's attitude. If they truly intend to betray Konoha, then we can take action. But if they dare to play tricks, we'll annihilate Konoha along with them!"

"Yes!" the elders replied in unison.

......

The same panic and unrest also quietly spread in Sunagakure, but the Land of Wind was relatively weak, and Sunagakure was already badly wounded, so it did not cause much of a stir.

Leaving aside the fact that the Land of Wind is poor in resources and food, and even the supply of ninjas is difficult to maintain, the assassination of the Third Kazekage, the source of the Third Shinobi World War, was enough to keep Sunagakure busy and had no confidence to start a war.

Not to mention that during this time, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, was so immersed in the pain of losing his wife that his mind was in turmoil. All he could think about was his youngest son, Gaara, the Jinchuriki who was taking revenge on him, and he neglected all the affairs of the village.

They had no time to pay attention to what was happening in Konoha or the changing tides of the ninja world.

The elders of Sunagakure could only sigh inwardly as they watched Rasa grow increasingly dejected and the village become more and more bleak.

All they could do was send out orders to keep the village gates tightly shut and defend their territory, trying their best not to get involved in the conflicts of the ninja world, hoping to barely preserve the foundation of Sunagakure in this turbulent situation.

......

This event had the most profound impact on Kirigakure.

At this moment, while Kirigakure appeared outwardly unaffected by the news from Konoha, a massive upheaval had already erupted within the village!

"What??? Mizukage, are you saying you're being controlled???"

Inside the council hall of Kirigakure, Mei Terumi, Ao, and the village elder Genshi all paled and stared in shock at the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, who sat in the main seat.

They simply couldn't imagine that Yagura Karatachi, the supreme ruler of Kirigakure and the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, could be controlled by genjutsu for such a long time.

Yagura Karatachi looked ashamed: "Yes, I was being controlled by genjutsu the whole time. The person who came was very powerful and had a very high level of genjutsu skills. As a jinchūriki, my mind is more susceptible to interference than that of ordinary people, so I had almost no power to resist and was controlled by him in an instant."

As he said this, he clenched his fist, a hint of ruthlessness and lingering fear flashing in his eyes:

"Moreover, that guy seems to be trying to use me to sow discord among the various clans in the village, deliberately stirring up conflict between the Hozuki family and other clans, causing them to fight each other and weaken Kirigakure's strength..."

"What?! This guy actually wants to do that?!" Mei Terumi's eyes widened in fury. "If they really fight amongst themselves, Kirigakure will be completely destroyed! This person who controls you is utterly despicable!"

Aoya frowned, his expression grave: "No wonder the Hozuki clan has been clashing with other clans in other villages recently, even resulting in ninja casualties. I thought it was because they were fighting for the title of the number one ninja clan, but I didn't expect that someone was secretly sowing discord. And the mastermind behind all this is actually controlling you, Lord Mizukage."

Since the Kaguya clan (Shikotsumyaku) failed in their coup a few years ago, the title of the number one clan in Kirigakure has been vacant. Currently, the Hozuki clan and the Yuki clan are the most vying for it.

The former possesses the ability to liquefy his body, making him immune to any level of physical attack, and his ancestors even included a Mizukage.

The Yuki clan possesses an ancestral ice-escape technique, which is a perfect counter to the Hozuki clan.

Yagura nodded slowly, his tone growing increasingly heavy, and then recounted events such as the Blood Mist Village.

As soon as the words were spoken, the hall fell into a deathly silence. Mei Terumi, Ao, and Genji all wore expressions of solemnity and anger. They finally understood why Kirigakure had become so chaotic recently, why the name "Village of Blood Mist" was growing more and more renowned, and why the villagers were filled with fear.

None of this was Yagura Karatachi's intention; someone was secretly manipulating things to destroy Kirigakure!

After a moment, Master Yuan spoke first: "Lord Mizukage, do you know what their purpose is? Is it merely to destroy Kirigakure, or is there some other, more terrifying conspiracy?"

Yagura Karatachi shook his head, his face full of helplessness: "I don't know either. That guy is very cautious. He has never revealed his true identity to me, nor has he ever revealed his ultimate goal. He just keeps manipulating me to do things that harm Kirigakure."

"How did you realize you were being controlled? And how did you break free from the illusion?"

Master Yuan asked again, which was also the question he was most concerned about.

The genjutsu that could control the Three-Tails Jinchuriki was no ordinary genjutsu; it was truly fortunate that Yagura was able to break free.

At this point, a hint of embarrassment and awkwardness appeared on Yagura's face, and his tone became slightly hesitant:

"This... it shouldn't be that I actively discovered or broke free. Rather, the guy controlling me seems to have encountered a problem. His chakra became disordered, and the power of his genjutsu weakened, creating a flaw. That's how I took the opportunity to break free from his control and regain consciousness."

"Is that so?" Master Yuan nodded thoughtfully. "In that case, all the previous rumors make sense."

"Rumors? What rumors?" Yagura Karatachi looked up, his face full of confusion.

"It's a rumor about Konoha..." Ao slowly spoke, his tone solemn as he relayed the news that had spread throughout the ninja world recently.

Yagura was instantly shocked, realizing the source of his control.

But to everyone's surprise, after understanding all this, he did not choose to make a big fuss about it as a bargaining chip to attack Konoha, but instead made another choice.

1. The other party is too powerful, so we cannot make a big fuss about this matter. Instead, we should keep it a secret and not let outsiders know about it.

2. To prevent that guy from taking control again, he resigned from the position of Mizukage and handed over power to the elder "Yuan Shi," giving him the same authority as the Mizukage. All important village matters had to be discussed with this elder.

3. To appease the conflicts among the ninja clans within the village, erase the terrifying political image of Kirigakure as the "Village of Blood Mist," and promote a policy of peace.

4. Mei Terumi will serve as the successor to the Mizukage.

Naturally, everyone had objections, especially Mei Terumi herself, who opposed the last point, feeling it would affect her marriage. However, due to Yagura Karatachi's insistence, she could only agree in the end.

Besides that...

Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village) has begun its closure!
