Kirigakure is in chaos.
Just as Yubi thought, Third Mizukage died by assassination, which aggravated the suspicion among several major factions within Kirigakure.
Moreover, although Kirigakure intentionally blocked the message.
But the news still spread.
Mizukage was killed by people from his own village - this is simply a joke.
Of course, it also gave rise to some so-called conspiracy theories.
Currently, there are several factions in Kirigakure. One is the team led by Yagura, which plans to completely reform the village.
The atmosphere of "Bloody Mist Village" started after Third Mizukage took over.
Third Mizukage implements a strong government, and there are still many people who are oppressed by this kind of governance, which has led to many people actually being dissatisfied with Third Mizukage.
The other faction is the Chaos Faction.
This group of people grew up during the ruling period of the three major Mizukages, and were deeply benefited by Third Mizukage's strong political tactics." Although the position of Mizukage is currently vacant - these people People do not intend to let the village change. The representatives of this faction are the few people in Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who survived Third Shinobi World War, as well as the cronies of Third Mizukage.
The last faction is the neutral faction.
The more representative ones are the rising stars led by Qing and Mei Terumi, but their power is also the weakest among the several factions and their influence is very small.
In addition to the three camps on the surface, there are also many old forces mixed in Kirigakure."
Especially the famous family headed by the Hozuki Clan, Second Mizukage is the descendant of the Hozuki Clan, so now that Third Mizukage is dead, they should believe that the position of Mizukage should be inherited by members of their family, and they cannot repeat the mistakes of Third Mizukage.
The blood succession forces within Kirigakure have not been weakened yet," and conflicts between tribes and ethnic groups within Land of Rain also occur frequently - these undoubtedly exacerbate the instability of Kirigakure.
Through the surveillance of White Zetsu, Yubi has a panoramic view of all this.
In the original work, Yagura initially came to power in order to overthrow the village governance philosophy of "Third Mizukage" and eliminate the influence of Bloody Mist Village's thinking on Kirigakure.
It's just a pity that not long after he took office, he was controlled by Obito - thus promoting an even darker "Bloody Mist Village" era.
"In other words, now inside Kirigakure, Hozuki Clan wants to compete with Yagura for Mizukage's position - at the same time, if Yagura wants to become Fourth Mizukage, it must find a way to suppress some of the third-generation old subordinates headed by Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist."
In the office, Yubi listened to White Zetsu's report and summarized it.
If you want to blame Kirigakure for this phenomenon, you can only blame First Mizukage Bailian.
I have to say that the characteristics and governance style of Five Great Shinobi Villages are still very obvious.
Bai Lian, First Mizukage, is extremely strict and can't tolerate sand in her eyes. She also focuses on high-pressure management of her subordinates, including the village's policies.
The Kirigakure ninja system that he single-handedly finalized is almost pervertedly harsh.
In order to run this system, it is completely normal for people to kill each other over trivial matters.
But when Second Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki arrived, he was another fighting maniac and lunatic, which also affected the thinking of the Kirigakure generation - "some mental illness began to appear."
Only then did we have the Kirigakure with relatively distinctive features.
"Now for us Sunagakure, there is an opportunity - an opportunity to control Kirigakure."
Black Zetsu on the side said, "Like Madara, we catalyzed the chaos of Kirigakure. In this way, we Sunagakure will continue to expand our military as Five Great Shinobi Villages Kirigakure, one of, will no longer be a threat. On the contrary, it will help us - even if Konoha joins forces with the other two ninja villages, we will have the ability to compete."
"Supporting a puppet Mizukage to rise to power?"
Yubi smiled slightly.
Black Zetsu is right - this is indeed an opportunity.
It is also beneficial to Sunagakure.
But - if you want to completely control a great ninja village, judging from the current situation of Shinobi World, it is basically impossible.
Something that even Madara can't do, let alone himself.
It's easy to hide behind the scenes, but if you are exposed - the consequences will be serious.
Moreover, Yubi has realized that Black Zetsu is secretly playing tricks on this matter - therefore, he has no idea about the current Kirigakure and will not take the bait.
"Let's take a look first and then talk."
Yubi said perfunctorily.
The intelligence of Kirigakure has been leaked - Third Mizukage was killed, which has aroused the suspicion of conspiracy theory.
Kirigakure definitely doesn't want to be laughed at by outsiders.
The cause of Third Mizukage's death has been reported, there must be something fishy involved.
Yubi even suspected that it was Black Zetsu who did it.
"If he takes action at this time", once the outside world finds out that it is him, Fourth Kazekage, who is doing the trick, the nature will definitely be different.
I have a black pot on my back that I can't even take off.
Kirigakure will fight Sunagakure until death.
Moreover, Land of Wind annexing Land of Rain and getting involved in Kirigakure are two different concepts.
Kirigakure is one of Five Great Shinobi Villages - even if the other four major countries now regard Sunagakure's military expansion as a threat, after all, it has not yet affected their own safety. In addition, Amegakure does not have a political system, so they just turn a blind eye.
But if Kirigakure is attacked, it almost indicates that Sunagakure's purpose is to attack "the other four major ninja villages."
This will almost instantly push Sunagakure to the opposite side of the entire Shinobi World. The other four ninja villages will join forces without hesitation and destroy "Sunagakure" governed by themselves at all costs.
Moreover, don't underestimate the power of the Daming Palace" - when the Daming Palaces of the four major countries spend all their wealth to attack Land of Wind.
Yubi is equivalent to being an enemy of the world.
When the time comes, not to mention the outside—that is, inside Land of Wind, there will definitely be someone among Sunagakure's top brass who will jump out and question Yubi, Kazekage."
It can be described as internal and external troubles.
"If you attack Kirigakure with your front foot, maybe your back foot will be stabbed out by this Black Zetsu--"
Yubi sneered in his heart.
If you want to change the pattern of Shinobi World, you have to do it step by step and never make any rash advances.
Otherwise - you will lose everything.
Sunagakure dared to capture Land of Rain because he knew where the bottom line of the other four great ninja villages was.
And Black Zetsu - obviously wants to encourage him to take a big step forward. It seems that he is thinking about Sunagakure, but in fact - he is harming him.
"No wonder even the spots can be corrected - this guy is indeed very sinister."
"In the current situation, there is some use in keeping him. He is needed to mobilize White Zetsu in all aspects--after everything is settled, let him disappear."
Yubi An idea flashed across his mind.
He waved his hand and asked Jue to leave first.
Black Zetsu did not realize that Yubi had already sentenced him to death."
"Lord Kazekage, Land of Fire sent news to Daming Mansion, Konoha's Minato Namikaze will become Fourth Hokage in three days."
A few hours later, Yubi was still at work.
The door opened and Yura stepped in slowly and said one thing.
"Sure enough - it's still him."
Yubi heard the words and said softly.
Based on Minato's performance in Third Shinobi World War, it is only natural that he should become Fourth Hokage.
What's more, Land of Rain's matter means that Danzo itself has little say in Konoha High Command recently.
There is no way to object to Sarutobi's choice of Hokage.
Moreover, recently Danzo has been busy traveling around Shinobi World to pour dirty water on Sunagakure through the cooperation of drug resources - naturally he doesn't have much energy to hinder this matter.
It's just that Minato became Fourth Hokage - so it's probably not that far away from Orochimaru defecting to Konoha.
"Have someone send a letter to Konoha to express congratulations to the new Hokage."
Yubi ordered.
"Yes."
