Chapter 356: Those Who Are Obstinate, Kill!
"Genji-sama, what exactly happened inside? Why didn't we see Mizukage-sama?"
Genji blocked all of Kirigakure Ninjas who had rushed over after hearing the news and told them the truth. The idea of bringing these people in only appeared for a moment before he threw his head out.
That was no different from courting death!
Almost half of Kirigakure's top combat strength had been lost inside.
If he wanted to rely on force to turn the tables, perhaps he could only rely on Kirigakure's Bijuu. However, if that happened, it would completely enrage the other party. At that time, when the two sides fought, Kirigakure would probably not be able to protect themseve.
"Sigh!"
Genji let out a long sigh. His eyes were dark and gloomy as he said in a deep voice, "There are some people who are unwilling to accept the result at the Test Conference. They have been dealt with by Mizukage-sama just now."
"Ah, this..."
The people looked at each other. They looked at each other in dismay. Their expressions were brilliant. They wanted to say something but hesitated. It was obvious that they were skeptical.
This half of the 'letter' was because this was said by Genji-sama in front of them. Otherwise, they would definitely feel that their intelligence had been insulted.
Could this be the reason for such a big commotion just now?
How could they not know which expert Kirigakure had that could force Mizukage-sama to such a degree?
However, they did not dare to question Genji-sama's words, so they appeared to be particularly conflicted.
At this time, Genji put on a straight face and directly said, "What, do I look suspicious?"
"I don't dare to say that!"
"If you don't dare, then disperse. Mizukage-sama and I will reveal the details tomorrow. Right now, there are some things that we can't let you know yet."
After Genji deliberately said this, many people thought about it and immediately revealed a look of 'understanding'. They guessed that something unknown must have happened at the previous Test Conference.
As the saying goes, the more people know, the faster they die. Since Genji-sama has already said it clearly, they can't let them know about the inner affairs for the time being. They naturally won't break the pot and ask to the end.
If they really did this, not only would they not be able to survive in the village in the future, they might even lose their lives.
Thus, many people immediately protected themselves and decisively left. In their hearts, they thought that even if there was really a problem, they would have a high position to support it. Could it be that the people in the village would all die?
The remaining small group of people who still felt that something was wrong were also led by others. They could only retain their doubts and leave first.
Without evidence, they did not have the qualifications and courage to question what Genji-sama had hidden.
What's more, Genji-sama had said that he was hiding it from them.
This kind of reverse action did not arouse too much suspicion.
When everyone had left and had driven away all the people who came after, Genji then returned the way he had come, through the building of the house that Konan had recreated with the Paper Technique.
Although this was a tiger's den, he had to come back.
"A wise choice. I like to deal with smart people."
"I just don't want to add more casualties."
Haru had long known that this old man was a person who could endure.
In the original work, after discovering the abnormality of Mizukage Yagura, he had been keeping a low profile and enduring. He watched coldly as Yagura led his people to slaughter so many families, but he did not jump out to use his reputation to fight Yagura to the death.
On the contrary, he kept himself safe and pretended to be dead in silence. It was only when Terumi Mei appeared and confirmed that the other party had the talent and qualifications to replace Yagura that he used all his resources to secretly help Terumi Mei and Ao.
At the same time, he also monitored Terumi Mei's every move.
Even when Yagura died in the end, Genji did not immediately let Terumi Mei become the next Mizukage. Instead, he gradually gave her power. At the same time, he also firmly controlled the counter-control method to prevent Yagura's tragedy from happening again.
If not for the beginning of the Five Kage Summit, Terumi Mei would need Mizukage's identity to attend the meeting.
Otherwise, this old bastard might wait for him to die before passing the throne to Terumi Mei.
Therefore, such a clever and patient elder would not easily do something like striking a rock with an egg.
What Haru needed was to push the boat along with the current, using this old man's fame and his familiarity with Kirigakure to help Akatsuki annex the Land of Water as quickly as possible and steal the sun!
As for what this old man would do in the future, he was completely not worried.
Because he was different from the others. As long as he obtained [Myriad Realms Monolith] approval, even if the other party brought all the remaining Kirigakure Ninjas to rebel, he could suppress them with a flip of his hand!
What if they resist?
It was just a joke!
The main base had already given up, could there still be a chance to turn the tables?
He, Senju Haru, was not from the EDG.
His gaze swept over Satsuki and the others who were pretending to be dead. Finally, Haru looked at Genji and directly said in a domineering manner, "I want the Land of Water. Either you give it to me, or I will take it myself!"
"I have already defeated Kumogakure. I don't need to defeat Kirigakure. Do you want to fight to the death or cooperate with me to control this country? Now tell me your answer."
Under Haru's aggressive interrogation, Genji smiled bitterly. "Do you have to do this? There is no third choice?"
"No, I, Akatsuki, am destined to occupy the five great countries and unify Ninja World to achieve true peace."
"True peace. I hope you can really achieve it."
With a complicated expression, Genji surrendered to Haru's force and the flatbread he drew.
If the other party was a cruel and bloodthirsty person, Genji would rather fight to the death than let Kirigakure fall into the hands of such a person.
However, according to the information he obtained, it proved that what the other party said was true. In any country ruled by Akatsuki, not only did the people not suffer any miserable and unfair treatment, but their lives were getting better and better.
This also made Akatsuki, who had repeatedly launched wars, not be demonized. On the contrary, his reputation and image were even more deeply rooted in the hearts of people.
Probably other than the rulers of various countries, the people did not reject the rule of Akatsuki.
There was work to do, food to eat, money to take, and they would not be bullied. Even if they paid taxes, they would end up in the construction of the country and use them on themselves. Where could they find such a good thing?
This was the most fundamental reason why Genji's ideals were shaken.
Haru nodded with satisfaction. "You will be responsible for what we should do next. I only have one request, and that is, those who are stubborn, kill! Those who leak the news, kill!"
The former could be understood, and it was already within Genji's expectations.
But the latter.
Genji seemed to have thought of something, and his mouth was dry and dry as he said, "Could it be that you want to..."
Haru did not answer directly, but said meaningfully, "Don't tell me that Kirigakure did not receive Konoha's alliance request."
As expected!
Genji took a deep breath and began to mourn for Konoha.
At the same time, he nodded and said, "I know what to do, but I need some people to cooperate with me."
