Chapter 407 Take action
Although Kirigakure's attitude made Shisui feel that something was wrong, Shisui did not act rashly out of caution.
It was already afternoon when they arrived at Kirigakure. They had a simple dinner, chatted within the team, and then went to bed. The first day passed like this.
The next morning, Shisui woke up at six o'clock out of habit. When he walked out of the hotel, he found two Kirigakure ninjas outside the door.
Yesterday there were only two Kirigakure ninjas standing nearby, but today there were four.
‘Is it a demonstration? Do you want to use this move to silently warn us not to leave the hotel? Or is there some other purpose?’ Many thoughts flashed through Zhishui’s mind in an instant.
Although there were many thoughts in his mind, Shisui's expression did not change and was as calm as usual.
Shisui walked up to the Kirigakure ninja who was there yesterday and asked: "What is the result of the report? When can we see Mizukage?"
The Kirigakure ninja glanced at Shisui indifferently, and said lazily: "Didn't I tell you to wait for the notice? Why do you ask so many questions? Also, don't come out casually."
Shisui frowned. Although he had a good temper, this was an issue between Ninja Village and Ninja Village, and even involved the country.
The scarlet three-magatama Sharingan appeared, chakra surged from Shisui's body, and his aura surged towards the four Kirigakure, and a creepy murderous aura faintly emerged.
If you continue to be patient, you will only be underestimated by the enemy. He represents Konoha and the Five Shadows Conference. How can you let the opponent underestimate you!
"You...what do you want to do?" When Shisui's three-magatama Sharingan, which was as scarlet as blood, was stared at, when the mountain-like aura of Shisui's body pressed against them, when the murderous aura on Shisui's body
When they emerged, the four Kirigakure ninjas all felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. Their bodies became cold and numb, unable to move. They used all their strength to move their lips and stuttered.
"Here...this is...but Kirigakure Village, not you Konoha, you have to consider the consequences of whatever you do." The Kirigakure ninja's body was shaking uncontrollably, and he looked at Shisui with a somewhat horrified look.
At this moment, they remembered that ninjas and ninjas cannot be generalized. When a ninja is strong enough, even just a look can make ordinary ninjas unable to move.
Obviously, the Konoha ninja in front of them is such a strong person, and they are just ordinary ninjas on the background board.
All they can do now is move out of their own village, hoping that the other party will be taboo about this. After all, Kirigakure is also one of the five great ninja villages.
Shisui slowly put away his momentum, looked at the four people coldly with his blood-red Sharingan and said: "I have no intention of causing trouble, but I hope Guicun understands that I am here on behalf of Konoha and also on behalf of the Five Shadows Conference."
Invite, but please respect yourself."
"I will ask for the reply from above later. This is really not something we can decide." The attitude of the Kirigakure ninja suddenly became normal, without the previous coldness and indifference, and he told the truth.
They don't have any serious illnesses, and they will definitely not make things difficult for the envoys from Konoha without any reason. Their superiors asked them to do this, and they dared to do this.
After Kirigakure finished speaking, he saw that Shisui's expression was no longer so cold, and his gaze was no longer so scary, so he relaxed.
Maybe it's because Shisui's aura is so strong that he was a little bit stunned just now. Now think about it carefully, this is Kirigakure Village. No matter how strong Shisui is, he wouldn't dare to kill people so openly in Kirigakure Village.
.
However, after recalling Shisui's terrifying look, the Kirigakure ninja decided to follow his heart, it was Kirigakure who was stronger, not him.
And those senior executives are not worth his life.
Many ordinary Kirigakure ninjas are very disappointed with the current Kirigakure, but they do not have the courage to escape Kirigakure, nor do they change Kirigakure's strength, so they can only obey numbly.
"I have the habit of exercising, so it's okay to go for a morning jog nearby," Shisui said calmly, but the unclosed blood-red Sharingan gave the four Kirigakure ninjas a hint of irresistibility.
"No problem." The Kirigakure ninja nodded heartily.
There is no way, this is a long-term habit of others. If you don't let it, it may be very uncomfortable, or even cause bad things to decline in strength. As the ninjas of Kirigakure, the top five ninja villages, they have an extraordinary sense of responsibility. Of course, they must treat each other the same.
The demand is definitely not because of fear.
Shisui closed his Sharingan, first returned to the hotel and left a shadow clone, then walked out of the hotel, randomly chose a direction, and trotted away.
After leaving the sight of the Kirigakure ninjas, Shisui stopped. He was not really preparing for a morning run, he just wanted to collect information about Kirigakure and see if he could analyze anything useful from it.
Kirigakure Village is built deep in the mountains. The roads in the village have great height differences, and there is often fog that envelopes the entire village.
Maybe it's because the weather is good today. Even in the early morning, the fog is not thick and there are already many pedestrians on the road.
Shisui observed the surroundings covertly, observing the layout of the buildings in Kirigakure Village, and observing the expressions of the residents of Kirigakure Village.
Because of the transformation technique, Shisui looked like an ordinary person at this time, so the people around him did not pay special attention to Shisui.
Although Shisui is not a master of stealth, he cannot do such things as wearing a Konoha ninja uniform and wearing a Konoha forehead protector to collect intelligence in the Kirigakure Village.
Shisui walked around Kirigakure Village for an hour like an ordinary person out for a walk.
At this time, the fog has become extremely thin and does not affect people's sight. Pedestrians on the street are coming and going and starting their own lives.
Shisui looked up into the distance, where there was a cylindrical building built on tall arches.
Even if he had never been to the Kingdom of Water before, Shisui could roughly guess what kind of building that building was. It was probably the Mizukage Building.
This is usually the case in ninja villages. The building for the Kage's office will be built as the tallest building in the village. This not only symbolizes the Kage's status in the village, but also allows the Kage to have an extremely wide perspective and observe the entire scene from this tallest building.
village.
That's why Shisui made this judgment.
Zhiguo Duan turned around and walked back. He had been walking for almost an hour. If he stayed longer, those Kirigakure might be in a hurry to find him.
Before coming, Shisui was well prepared and took a look at the latest information on Kirigakure collected by Konoha.
Because many ninjas from Kirigakure escaped from Kirigakure, some of them still had old feelings for Kirigakure, so they did not reveal more information about Kirigakure, but lived silently in a corner of the ninja world.
And some Kirigakure ninjas, actively or passively, more or less leaked information about Kirigakure, so the news that Kirigakure was in chaos was only known.
However, not many people know about it. Unless they are particularly concerned about the situation in Kirigakure Village, they generally won’t know about it.
Because Kirigakure is an island country and has little contact with countries on the mainland, even if they know something is wrong with them, no one is interested in Kirigakure.
Shisui learned from Konoha's intelligence that it was because the Fourth Mizukage implemented a high-pressure policy and very cruelly suppressed the ninja family within the blood line.
Shisui felt that if this move lasted, it might affect the entire Kingdom of Water and demonize the Blood Successor Limit Ninja.
Many ninjas did not understand the cruel policies. Although they were not bloodline ninjas, they had empathy and compassion.
They tried to resist, but failed because of a group of people who benefited from the brutal policies.
After the failed resistance, there was another massacre, and those who did not want to stay in this sad place became rebels.
People who were unable or unwilling to leave for various reasons stayed in Kirigakure Village and lived numbly.
Shisui didn't feel anything at first, but when he observed the people in Kirigakure Village, he found that most of the residents in Kirigakure Village had silent expressions and would only do their own things silently, as if they didn't care about anything, which led to a large number of people.
, but it made Shisui feel a little deserted.
He had never seen this kind of situation in Konoha, but he could often see this kind of expression in the small country during the war.
But Kirigakure Village is not suffering from a war, and this is a country of water, not a small country that can be bullied.
'It seems that Kirigakure's situation is much more serious than imagined.' Shisui thought silently on the way back.
No wonder even two of Kirigakure's three remaining Seven Ninja Swordsmen have fled. This situation may be more uncomfortable for people who like the village more.
When they approached the hotel where they were staying, Shisui removed his transformation technique, returned to his original appearance, and slowly walked into the sight of the Kirigakure ninja.
"You are finally back. If you don't come back, breakfast will be cold." Seeing Shisui's return, the Kirigakure ninja breathed a sigh of relief. If the leader of Konoha's team disappeared in the village, they would not be able to explain to their superiors.
Zhisui nodded lightly and returned to the hotel.
When Shisui walked into the hotel, the Konoha ninjas greeted him one after another, and Shisui responded one by one with a smile.
After finishing the meal, Shisui called everyone together, and then told everyone the situation and analysis he discovered in the morning.
Everyone was surprised. Although they knew something was wrong with Kirigakure Village, they didn't think it would be a big problem. This was out of respect for the five great ninja villages that were located in the same village as their own.
But according to what Shisui said, Kirigakure is now facing a huge problem, and even ordinary villagers are affected.
"I didn't expect it to be like this, but that's not why Kirigakure Village dares to treat us like this, right? They have such a big problem, so they should be more careful in handling the relationship between the two countries, right?" Someone showed a puzzled expression.
He couldn't quite understand where the Kirigakure Village had the courage to show off its power against Konoha in a weak state.
"I don't know, this is too abnormal." Zhisui shook his head and said.
But after thinking about it, the Fourth Mizukage could implement the policies that weakened his village's strength cleanly, so I'm afraid there might be some serious problem.
The reason why I treat them like this is because I have fallen ill again.
Shisui could understand a little more about targeting a limited blood family, because this situation had also happened in Konoha, and no one knew the contradiction between Uchiha and Konoha better than him.
It is a multi-faceted and complex conflict. There are reasons for their Uchiha clan's ancestor, Uchiha Madara, there are reasons for their Uchiha strength, there are also reasons for Uchiha's character, and there are many non-Uchiha reasons.
He was located between Konoha and Uchiha and tried to resolve the conflicts between the two parties, but he was not strong enough and failed to do so.
It wasn't until Nagaze stood up and made various arrangements that he successfully prevented the contradiction from deepening, and was gradually resolving the deep contradictions between the two parties and integrating them into a whole.
So Shisui was very grateful to Nagazawa, for everything he did to Uchiha, so that he finally no longer had to be an inhumane person on both sides. Nagazawa had a special place in his heart.
After seeing the tragic situation of Kirigakure's Bloodstained Family, Shisui respected Nagazawa even more.
If the conflict between Uchiha and Konoha is left alone, one party will definitely raise a sword to attack in the end. No matter what the final result is, Konoha's strength will eventually decline.
"No matter what Kirigakure's situation is, we just need to see Mizukage complete our mission.
Since Kirigakure has been frightened by you, Shisui, we should know soon when we can see Mizukage. If Kirigakure is not sincere by then, we can just go back and report the truth." Yanagida
Zhen said in a deep voice.
Shisui nodded. Their mission was to invite Mizukage to attend the Five Kage Conference. If Mizukage deliberately missed them, they would naturally not wait in Kirigakure stupidly.
The current situation is not that Konoha needs to ask Kirigakure, earth, fire, thunder and wind have all reached an agreement, you, a country of water, still want to overturn the world?
Maybe he was really frightened by Shisui. In the afternoon, after receiving the reply from above, Kirigakure immediately entered the hotel and explained the situation to Shisui and others.
"You can go meet Mizukage-sama in three days." The Kirigakure ninja conveyed the above answer.
After receiving an accurate answer, the team members, including Shisui, felt much relieved.
As long as the time is set, it's fine if it's a little slow, but I'm afraid Kirigakure will pretend to be dead and keep delaying it.
Although the time was set, Shisui became a little interested in Kirigakure because of what he saw in the morning, and went out for an hour in the evening.
And during the following days of waiting, Shisui continued to act like this, going out to wander around Kirigakure Village for an hour in the morning and evening.
On the way out, Shisui noticed a problem. The number of Kirigakure ninjas around the hotel actually increased again, from four to twenty. However, the extra sixteen Kirigakure ninjas were all hidden in the dark.
It was Shisui who discovered it due to his keen observation.
Shisui thought for a while and felt that it might be because he showed unusual strength that aroused Kirigakure's fear, so he sent more people.
However, when Shisui observed again later, he did not send any more manpower.
Just like that, two days passed quickly, and in another day, I could go to see Mizukage and complete the task.
Maybe because of the excitement, someone suggested having a drink to celebrate, but Shisui refused and lectured.
Shisui felt that the last moment was the time when he should be most vigilant.
When everyone fell asleep, the additional Kirigakure ninjas killed the first two Kirigakure in the eyes of their companions in disbelief, and then walked into the hotel silently.
