"Mingyue, don't worry, I have my own arrangements."
Uzushiogakure.
Hearing what Pops said, Mingyue Takenaka also smiled and nodded, "Since you already have an idea, father, I'll wait and see.
By the way, there is something I need to tell my father, Kirigakure, I feel something is wrong."
"Something's wrong? What's wrong?" Takenaka Kaguya frowned and asked casually.
"According to the intelligence secretly sent by our intelligence personnel, Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan seem to be very dissatisfied with the leadership of Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura and are preparing to launch a rebellion." Mingyue Takenaka said calmly.
Although Third Mizukage Kurama has maintained a good relationship since he came to power, especially when Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura Danzō secretly instigated major hidden villages to besiege Uzushiogakure, Kurama personally brought the first generation Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist to the rescue.
Therefore, the relationship between the two villages has become particularly close, and the exchanges have increased a lot.
Of course, more importantly, the trade exchanges between the two countries have brought huge development to the economies of both countries.
However, since Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura came to power, this close and friendly relationship seemed to have suddenly entered a cooling-off period. Although the trade exchanges between the two parties have not decreased, the high-level exchanges between the two hidden villages have decreased a lot.
At first, Mingyue Takenaka thought that Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura had just taken over and needed to deal with a lot of things to stabilize his position.
However, Kurama has been dead for so long, and the exchanges between the two villages still have not increased, but have become less and less.
Therefore, in order to prevent sudden changes at Kirigakure, Mingyue Takenaka specially added intelligence personnel to secretly enter Kirigakure to investigate.
Unfortunately, although the information she received was as she expected, such a result was not what Mingyue Takenaka wanted to see.
At the main seat, hearing that the two major Ninja families, Kirigakure, were showing signs of rebellion, Takenaka Kaguya frowned slightly, and then analyzed. "This should not happen.
In recent years, neither Kaguya Clan nor Yuki Clan has emerged with any outstanding figures. If they really want to launch a rebellion, I am afraid they will be wiped out in an instant before they even leave their clan.
These two tribes have been quiet for so many years, so it stands to reason that such a situation would not happen."
Hearing this, Mingyue Takenaka smiled bitterly and said, "Father, I know what you said, and I thought so at the beginning, but the information from Kirigakure clearly showed that both Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan showed signs of rebellion.
Father, if you don't believe it, you will know after reading this message."
With that said, Mingyue Takenaka handed the message scroll to Takenaka Kaguya.
After a quick glance, Takenaka Kaguya frowned. This information was indeed what Mingyue Takenaka said. Both Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan showed signs of rebellion.
Among them, Kaguya Clan made people spread the story about Takenaka Kaguya's achievements before Kirigakure built the village, saying that his achievements were comparable to those of the first generation Mizukage Byakuren.
It was just because Takenaka Kaguya was too young at the time that Land of Water thought you rejected him as First Mizukage.
Now, after so many years, Kaguya Clan has not received the treatment he deserves, so we call on all major families Ninja to support Kaguya Clan's patriarch as Mizukage and bring down Karatachi Yagura.
Secondly, Yuki Clan has the same reason. They believe that Karatachi Yagura is just a Ninja from a small family of Kirigakure. Although he is strong enough, he has no achievements to speak of. The position of Mizukage should return to the hands of the Yuki Clan or Hozuki Clan.
However, the most abnormal thing is that Hozuki Clan actually did nothing, did not come forward to stop the stupid behavior of these two groups, and did not directly issue a statement to support Karatachi Yagura, as if they were just bystanders.
Not only that, if Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan just shouted slogans to express their dissatisfaction, then it would be nothing. However, they did not take Karatachi Yagura seriously at all. They openly expressed their opinions in Kirigakure and said that they would not rule out using force to oust Karatachi Yagura.
After reading it, Takenaka Kaguya shook his head, sighed and said, "If Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan continue to do this, they are not far from death."
"Father, the strength of the two Ninja families, Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan, is quite good. Under the leadership of Third Mizukage Kurama, the strength of these two families has grown greatly over the years. So, doesn't Father think highly of them?" Mingyue Takenaka asked doubtfully.
As far as she knows, there are more than twenty Jonin ninjutsu in the Kaguya Clan today, and even more in the Yuki Clan, almost forty. With so many Jonin together, it should not be underestimated.
Not to mention, the Kekkei Genkai of these two groups are not simple. Even if Karatachi Yagura becomes Three-Tails Jinchuriki, they may not be able to win.
"It's not that we're not optimistic, it's that they have no chance of winning at all.
Kirigakure has many Kekkei Genkai families. In terms of quantity, Konohagakure can match it.
Among them, Sui Wuyue and Hozuki Clan are the strongest, and secondly, Kaguya Clan is actually pretty good overall, ranking among the top five of Kirigakure.
However, just like Uchiha Clan and Hyuga Clan of Konohagakure, whether it is Uchiha or Hyuga, they do not have the strength to challenge the Hokage lineage.
In the same way, Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan look very strong, and they do not have the strength to challenge the Mizukage lineage."
Having said this, Takenaka Kaguya's eyes flashed with light, and then he looked at Mingyue Takenaka and continued, "Where is that old guy Genji?"
"Genji? He didn't do anything, as if he didn't know anything at all." Mingyue Takenaka shook his head and said.
"Impossible, this old guy Genji, when Kirigakure was first established, he had power in his hands that was not inferior to that of First Mizukage Byakuren.
It's a pity that in terms of military exploits, he can't compare to me and First Mizukage Byakuren, and Byakuren originally saved Daimyo of the Land of Water. With the support of Daimyo of the Land of Water, Byakuren became First Mizukage.
However, Genji and I were in the same camp at that time, so he who cooperated with me did not dare to take action against Genji easily even after Byakuren came to power.
Later, Genji gained the recognition of Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki on the condition of betraying me. Therefore, during the period when Hozuki Gengetsu was in power over Kirigakure, the power in Genji's hands was not only not weakened, but also strengthened a lot, and even almost surpassed Hozuki Gengetsu.
As for Third Mizukage Kurama, it was only after Hozuki Gengetsu and Iwagakure's Second Tsuchikage Mu died together that Kurama received the support of Genji and successfully took the position of Third Mizukage.
Therefore, during the period when Kurama was in power Kirigakure, the power in the hands of Genji must have increased a lot.
It can be said that although this old guy Genji has never done Mizukage, his status is higher than Mizukage.
I don't believe that this kind of thing happened in Kirigakure, but he didn't know at all." Takenaka Kaguya said, with a hint of disdain and ridicule.
Every time he thinks of the old guy Genji, he feels that this old guy is the same as Sima Yi in the late Three Kingdoms period. That is to say, Genji Clan really did not use force to overturn the coup of Mizukage. Otherwise, he would be Sima Yi of Naruto World.
On the side, Mingyue Takenaka naturally saw the expression on Pops's face clearly. She knew that Pops's analysis was correct.
After thinking about it, Mingyue Takenaka whispered, "Father, do you think there is a possibility that the reason why Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan jumped out to challenge Karatachi Yagura's authority at this time is that the old man Genji was behind it?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out.
Based on my understanding of that old guy Genji, his attachment to power has reached a very crazy level.
When he dared to take the initiative to betray me, the most powerful person recognized by Land of Water, for the sake of power, it was enough to prove that he is not someone who gives up power easily.
If Karatachi Yagura, this Fourth Mizukage, is unwilling to obey his arrangements, he will definitely cause trouble for Karatachi Yagura.
And it is not impossible for him to push Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan to actively provoke Karatachi Yagura in order to subdue them." Takenaka Kaguya analyzed with a sneer.
Speaking of this, Mingyue Takenaka thought for a moment and nodded, "This possibility cannot be ruled out.
But, father, are there other possibilities?"
"Of course, what I said just now is just my guess.
Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan are both very strong, and they are one of the strong pillars supporting Kirigakure.
Although Genji is very obsessed with power, if it was really him who did it, there is indeed something unreasonable about it.
First of all, such a method is too crude and does not look like his handiwork. The old guy Genji has always acted with a plan. Even if he was absolutely sure that Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan could stand up and provoke Karatachi Yagura, he would not act in such a big way.
You can do it by secretly putting pressure on Karatachi Yagura.
Secondly, that old guy Genji will know that once he loses his game, Kirigakure will suffer huge losses.
After all, if Karatachi Yagura wants to continue to sit in the position of Fourth Mizukage, his authority must be maintained. Otherwise, people will lose their support and the team will be difficult to lead!
In the end, no matter who wins, both sides will suffer losses. After all, the only things Kurama gave to Karatachi Yagura before his death were a Three-Tails, and the Anbu and Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist that he personally cultivated.
Besides, not everyone among Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist will be convinced by him."
Speaking of this, Takenaka Kaguya sighed. In fact, he still had a guess in his mind. After all, the plot of the original work had never been forgotten in his mind.
However, Madara Uchiha was solved by him personally, and now it is really impossible to continue the plot in the original work of Hokage.
"Father, what should we do? No matter what, Kirigakure is also our ally, do we want to watch helplessly?" Mingyue Takenaka asked with a frown.
"Isn't Kisame Hoshigaki going back to Kirigakure? Why not let him inquire about the specific situation of Kirigakure.
As for us, this is an internal matter of Kirigakure. If neither of them asks us for help, we have no reason to get involved." Takenaka Kaguya thought for a while and said.
"Okay, let's do this for now." Mingyue Takenaka said, turned and left, preparing to deal with other things.
Let's talk about Kirigakure, a very dilapidated yard.
"Everything is ready. We just need to wait for the opportunity to make Kirigakure completely chaotic."
I saw a teenage girl's mouth slightly raised, but her eyes were very calm and she looked at the middle-aged man in front of her and said.
And these two people, if Wanghun Kagami Uchiha were here, they would definitely be able to recognize them at a glance. They are Uchiha Hikari and Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Haha, as expected of the light, it was all done with just a few moves." Hiruzen Sarutobi said with a smile.
"Thank you, Lord Hiruzen. I was just following the arrangements of you and Lord Black Zetsu." Uchiha Hikari shook his head and said very humbly.
"Anyway, without your eyes, our plan wouldn't be so smooth.
Next, I have to trouble you to deal with that old guy Genji. His existence may very well make our plan fail." Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Uchiha Hikari with satisfaction, reached out and rubbed her head, and said softly with a smile.
"No problem, but the place where the old man Genji lives is heavily guarded. I need Mr. Black Zetsu to help me sneak in." Uchiha Hikari nodded in agreement, and then made his request.
"Okay, don't worry, Black Zetsu will come back to join us soon. When he arrives, you can take action.
Let's go, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's leave first." Hiruzen Sarutobi said.
"Okay!"
After a while, the two disappeared.
Talking about the residence of Genji.
At this moment, Genji was frowning and looking very ugly.
On the ground were the things he had just swept away. It looked like a mess.
"Elder Genshi Calm down!"
Hearing the voice, Genji raised his deep eyes, glanced at the other party, and said coldly, "What's the use of calming down? Kaguya Clan Those simple-minded, well-developed bastards, and Yuki Clan who want to muddy the water, do you know that if they jump out to provoke Yagura at this time, they will bring the village to a place of eternal destruction?
Instead of letting me calm down, you should think of ways to prevent the chaos that is about to happen next."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man standing in front of Genji frowned and said, "Elder Genshi, we have already talked with the clan leaders of the Kaguya Clan and Yuki Clan, but these two clans ignored us at all.
I and others spoke softly. Isn't it normal for these two groups not to give us face?
If you ask your subordinates, you might as well just let them mess up. At worst, you will step up to clean up the mess in the end. Anyway, neither of them will listen to us."
"Humph, it would be great if we could get them to fight.
Do you know that once they start a war, the village will suffer heavy losses.
The consequences may not be something we can afford." Genji snorted and said angrily.
For an instant, the room fell silent.
After a while, Genji sighed and said, "Oh, forget it, let's try to make peace with my old face again. If they really don't want to listen, then let them go!"
