Land of Water, Kirigakure. Mizukage's Office.
The air seemed to have solidified into ice, and even the mist drifting in from the window seemed cautious.
Fourth Mizukage Karatachi Yagura is sitting quietly behind the desk that symbolizes supreme power. He is short in stature and looks like a teenager who has not yet fully grown up, but his purple eyes are full of heart-stopping violence and coldness that are extremely inconsistent with his age.
"Boom, boom, boom."
There was a very light and very depressing knock on the door.
"Come in."
Yagura's voice is very plain, and there is no hint of emotion or anger.
A masked Anbu Ninja pushed open the door and knelt on one knee, his whole body almost touching the cold floor, not even daring to raise his head. His voice trembled slightly due to extreme fear:
"Sir Mizukage, Genji... report from the cemetery."
He held a scroll in both hands, his body shaking like chaff.
The air pressure in the office seemed to have dropped by dozens of degrees at this moment.
Yagura didn't pick it up immediately. He just glanced at Anbu from the corner of his eye and asked calmly, "Tell me."
"Yes..." Anbu Ninja swallowed hard, "The second, seventh, and eleventh assassination squads, a total of twenty-one members, including Jonin squad leader 'Izumi Masa'... all, all were killed."
"Where's the body?"
"All the bodies were left at the scene. The cause of death... was one-shot death. The scene... the scene was too clean. Apart from traces of battle, there were almost no valuable clues left."
Anbu Ninja After reporting, he buried his head deeper, waiting for the expected wrath of thunder.
However, the office fell into a deathly silence.
Yagura was still sitting quietly, with no expression on his face, as if what he had just heard was not the death of twenty-one elite Anbu, but an insignificant matter.
But Anbu, who was kneeling on the ground, felt an invisible and substantial murderous intention, coming from all directions like a tide, squeezing every inch of his nerves, and almost suffocating him.
"Heh."
After a long time, Yagura let out a chuckle of unknown meaning in his throat.
All the bodies were left at the scene? What is this? This is a naked demonstration.
He picked up the tea cup on the table and wanted to take a sip, but his seemingly calm hands were trembling slightly.
"Click--"
The hard porcelain cup shattered into countless pieces in his hands. The hot tea mixed with blood dripped down his fingers and onto the precious documents, making a soft "sizzling" sound.
But he seemed unaware.
Genji Is there such a person among the remnants of this series?
Behind Yagura's childish face, Obito's consciousness is roaring crazily.
Angry!
Unprecedented anger!
But this anger was not due to the loss of more than twenty cannon fodder. In his eyes, those so-called Special Assassination and Tactical Squad were just a group of tools that could be replaced at any time.
What made him angry was that his plan was completely overturned in the most brutal and arrogant way!
And declare to the entire Kirigakure that the Genji faction is not dead yet, and that the entire Kirigakure is not the one who can do whatever they want to do as Karatachi Yagura (Obito Uchiha).
The death of Genji was a trap set up by himself. The purpose was to fish out those opponents hiding in the dark.
Now the fish was caught, but the hook was broken, and even the fishing rod was snatched away, and he, a fisherman, was slapped in the face with his backhand!
Obito's mouth twitched crazily.
What made him even more furious was the only vague description of the battle that came back from the scene.
'Suspected Space-Time Ninjutsu...'
Space-Time Ninjutsu!
As soon as this word appeared, the figure of Minato Namikaze appeared in Obito's mind.
No! Wrong!
The teacher is dead!
The second figure that appeared was the guy who pushed him to the ground without any reason in the cave and almost beat him to death!
A name that he hated so much, even more fearful than Minato Namikaze, emerged from the depths of his memory.
Senju Chen!
Could it be that guy chasing Land of Water from Konoha?
"Summon Hozuki Anyue to see me.""
"Yes!"
The Kirigakure ninja retreated crawlingly as if he had been granted amnesty.
Less than three minutes.
A figure appeared silently in the center of the office like a ghost.
The person who came was tall and slender, wearing a special black tight-fitting combat uniform and a sleeveless white feather fabric. He had short hair and his skin was so pale that there was almost no blood.
The genius of the Hozuki Clan, the captain of Kirigakure Special Assassination and Tactical Squad--Hozuki Anyue.
The previous captain, Hozuki Getsuga, has been dismissed as captain due to the last incident.
"Master Mizukage." Hozuki Anyue bowed slightly, his voice smooth and cold, like two pieces of ice rubbing together.
"Do you know about the cemetery?" Yagura asked.
"Yes. The subordinate was negligent in his duty." Hozuki Anyue's answer was concise and to the point.
"Dereliction of duty? No, this is not your fault." Karatachi Yagura (Obito Uchiha) waved his hand, "In your Special Assassination and Tactical Squad dragnet, you can kill more than twenty elites like cabbage... What kind of person do you think can do that?"
Hozuki Anyue was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "The other party is very strong, it should be Elite Jonin."
"The on-site report said that the other party was suspected of using Space-Time Ninjutsu." The fingertips of Karatachi Yagura (Obito Uchiha) gently tapped the table.
"I don't care who he is or where he comes from."
Yagura stood up and walked to Hozuki Anyue, staring at him with those cold purple eyes.
"I want you to use all the resources of Special Assassination and Tactical Squad to seal off the entire territory of Land of Water! Dig as fast as you can to dig out this person from Land of Water!"
Hozuki Anyue's eyes finally showed a slight fluctuation.
He could feel that Master Mizukage was really angry this time.
Although Obito Uchiha himself felt that it was unlikely that Senju Chen would come to Kirigakure, as soon as he heard Space-Time Ninjutsu, the figure of the other party kept appearing in his mind.
And when he thought of this person, half of his body started to tremble with excitement.
"By the way, let's check out all the people recently related to Konoha, especially... those who are young, around 15 years old."
"Sir Mizukage, what you mean is that the other party may be Konoha's Qian..." Hozuki Anyue was surprised and asked quickly.
"Go." Yagura interrupted, waving his hand without explaining.
"Yes, Master Mizukage." He replied in a deep voice without any hesitation.
Hozuki Getsuga's figure once again turned into an afterimage and disappeared into the office.
Karatachi Yagura was the only one left in the empty room.
After Obito Uchiha has integrated and dealt with what was originally planned for Kirigakure, it's time to go to Land of Rain to deal with the matter of the eyes.
But now the unknown powerful people from the Genji series suddenly appeared and disrupted his plan.
It is also suspected that Space-Time Ninjutsu was used...
This made him suddenly feel a little bored.
He slowly walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the village below shrouded in blood and fog, with a gloomy look on his face.
