Nagato carrying rice in Konoha

Chapter 280 A New Water Shadow
"Here, you eat this."

Tsunade squinted and handed a piece of fish meat to Naoki.

He worked hard on the barbecue in an upright manner, and was forced to give up drinking. Without paying attention to anything, he picked up the fish sent by his own sister and put it in his mouth.

He took a few bites and swallowed it into his stomach without chewing a few times. His eating style was similar to that of the Akimichi family. He couldn't tell how delicious the fish was at first sight.

The Water Country where Kirigakure Village is located is an island country with rich fishery resources. Kirigakure's senior officials prepared a lot of high-end ingredients and fine wines for this party, among which the most valuable ones are these precious sea fish.

When Tsunade was the Hokage in Konoha, it was difficult to eat such rare sea fish. Even if she paid a lot of money to buy it, it would not be as fresh as here. Now she swallowed it wholeheartedly without even tasting the taste. I couldn't help but take a deep breath, feeling that my kindness had fed the dog, and I wanted to hit someone...
Fortunately, the sea fish prepared by Kirigakure Village this time was really abundant, and they kept feeding it as if they couldn't finish it all. Everyone who attended the banquet was able to open their bellies and eat to their heart's content.

Apart from the loud sounds of chewing in the hall, there were only the sounds of members of the Akatsuki organization talking to themselves.

These ninjas definitely don't have the rule of eating and sleeping silently. If they drink more, they will become drunk and go crazy and swing knives at each other. Kisame and Suigetsu are "eye-catching" each other while holding wine glasses. It seems that they have a tendency to do this. ······
"Nagato" took a bite of every dish, and even ate a chopstick of things like sashimi, but as a split body, it couldn't replenish energy from these foods, so after tasting it, , it seemed to have completed some task, sitting there wandering around, just waiting for the dinner to be over, so that all things here could be settled, with a sense of satisfaction of completing the mission of life, self-understanding, and hanging on the southeast branch , leaving all future troubles to the main body.

Originally, there was nothing wrong with it thinking this way, but unfortunately, life is unsatisfactory nine times out of ten. Just when the members of the Akatsuki organization turned red after drinking, Xianglan transformed into a female gangster through the drunkenness and went straight into Sasuke's arms. Suigetsu and The excitement on Kisame's face became more and more intense, and he seemed to be about to stand up and say, "There is no joy in the army, please dance with the sword." Suddenly, there was a surprised crowd of people downstairs, and some full of emotions. An inarticulate roar of rage.

There was obviously some commotion going on?
"Nagato" who was in a daze suddenly stopped feeling sleepy, and the first thought that came to his mind was.

"Are they fighting? Are they faster than Suigetsu and Kisame?? Really awesome!"

Not only does it think so, most members of the Akatsuki organization who understand the style of this country also think so.

Suigetsu and Kisame even blinked, with admiration in their eyes. They felt that Kirigakure was indeed a village that was good at internal fighting. This was a party and drinking, and as expected a fight broke out!
The members of the Akatsuki organization who were drinking looked excited, holding wine glasses as if they were ready to watch a show. The senior officials of Kirigakure Village who had put down their chopsticks suddenly turned pale. The little old man sitting closest to the gate directly He stood up, bowed briefly to Obito and "Nagato" and quickly retreated, apparently to check the situation.

"What, isn't it just a fight? What's the big deal? What kind of Kirigakure ninja are you if you don't fight?"

Suigetsu's gentle murmur fell into the ears of the senior management of Kirigakure Village, making them a little embarrassed. Kisame nodded to Suigetsu with a look of deep approval, and seemed to think that these senior executives were a little embarrassed. fuss.

Everyone continued to eat and drink in the hall on the roof. In the courtyard downstairs, the noise was getting louder and louder. From time to time, there were waves of cheers like a roaring mountain and a tsunami. To "Nagato", it was quite strange. It was like there was some kind of concert going on, oh no, someone was making trouble.

"Have you rebelled?"

When he saw the two Kirigakure killing Matt ninjas, rushing directly from the ground floor courtyard to the top floor without taking the stairs with their swords on their backs, and appearing at the door of the hall, "Nagato" thought so, his eyes shone, and he couldn't help but reveal An expectant expression. (?)
Its reaction was truly unparalleled. The upper management of Kirigakure, who had been secretly observing the reaction between it and Obito, had their mouths twitching. They really couldn't tell what was going on in "Nagato's" mind.

Is this the legendary god-level strongman who can kill the "demigod" Hanzo?My heart is unfathomable and completely impossible to penetrate!It's really awesome.

"Nagato" picked up the wine glass with great interest, and looked at Obito with no intention of taking matters into his own hands.Upon seeing this, Obito stood up, took a few steps toward the two Kirigakure ninjas who came to the entrance of the hall without authorization but did not dare to break in, and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Everyone in the Akatsuki organization looked at the two Kirigakure ninjas as if they were watching a monkey show, secretly assessing their strength and the purpose of coming here.

Orochimaru glanced at the two people and then looked away with a cold expression, showing no interest in the matter.

Obito looked at the appearance and attire of the two ninjas. His scrutinizing gaze made the two ninjas look at each other with uneasy expressions. Just when Obito's eyes narrowed and he became impatient, one of them had long yellow hair and slender eyes. The guy with the thin lips spoke.

He knelt down on one knee and asked Obito, "Should I call you Mizukage-sama?"

As soon as these words came out, most members of the Akatsuki organization had no reaction. Orochimaru showed a silent sneer first. Tsunade, who was sitting side by side with him, had a deep look in his eyes, brushing his brother's hair and making fun of the farce in front of him. Liquor, "Nagato" keenly discovered that the senior management of Kirigakure Village showed unconcealable pride in their eyes after the Kirigakure ninja asked Obito this question.

"Is this kind of thing important??"

Obito looked down, looking down at the Kirigakure ninja kneeling in front of him. After a few seconds of silence, he said in a deep voice, "As a ninja, you only need to obey the orders of your superiors."

The ninja with long yellow hair trembled under Obito's sight, as if he wanted to say something, but his face soon became visible to the naked eye, with dense cold sweat dripping down.

No matter what thoughts he had or what plans he had, even if he thought he was ready, when Obito's Sharingan, which was like substance and emitted a scarlet light, looked at him, he discovered that , all his words were so pale and feeble, and only his soul seemed to be penetrated by a sense of powerlessness and fear that enveloped him.

He was speechless.

A hint of imperceptible anxiety flashed in the eyes of the senior officials of Kirigakure Village.

The long-haired ninja who was kneeling and trembling, and the ninja with short brown hair and strong build standing next to him, under Suigetsu's surprised gaze, also knelt down on one knee in front of Obito and said loudly: "We just want to We just know who the next Mizukage-sama is and who we should be loyal to!"

"Allegiance?"

Obito looked at this ninja, and when he lowered his head in front of him, he glanced at Suigetsu with the exposed brown back of his head, and then said coldly: "Just be loyal to your superiors."

At this time, both he and Suigetsu had recognized him. This person was Suigetsu's subordinate, but his strength only reached the level of a special jounin, so he was not usually taken seriously.

"But······"

The brown-short-haired ninja, under Obito's intimidating gaze, also felt the same pressure as the yellow-long-haired ninja.He lowered his head and gritted his teeth, seemingly struggling to say something else, but Obito cut him off with a cold tone.

"There's nothing wrong with it. As a ninja, you have to erase your emotions and become a pure tool. Do you still need me to teach you this?"

His voice was like ice, able to freeze the entire hall.

Brats like Lin and Naoki frowned, not quite agreeing with what Obito said at this time.

Sasuke glanced at Obito and thought of Zabuza and Haku in this country. He said nothing and had a trace of disapproval on his face.

Orochimaru and Tsunade exchanged glances, and there was a look in their eyes that was indeed the case.

"Nagato" narrowed his eyes lazily, feeling that the good show in front of him was about to be forcibly suppressed by Obito.

Not to mention the two Kirigakure ninjas who were pushed to the front desk, who were already shaking like two quails in front of Obito. Even the top management of Kirigakure Village were silent under Obito's momentum and did not dare to say anything. Any objections come.

"Nagato" glanced clearly at the trembling bodies of the Kirigakure ninjas. At this moment, the brown-haired ninja raised his gaze and glanced at "Nagato" who was sitting at the top, as if he had gained some courage. , said to Obito: "We hope you can appoint Suigetsu-sama as the sixth Mizukage."

"what?!"

In the eyes of all the members of the Akatsuki organization, "It turns out you are the one causing trouble." Suigetsu, who was named by the short-haired ninja, pointed at his nose and jumped up.

"I never thought about being a Mizukage?" he shouted loudly, "What does this have to do with me!!!"

Suigetsu shouted that it was an injustice. Obito saw that he didn't look like he was just pretending, so he stared at the brown-haired ninja with his Sharingan, which could see through people's hearts.

"What's the reason? Why do you think so?"

He thought it was really weird. Even if you ninjas are so mean and you have to choose a Mizukage to take care of you, you should choose him as the "former Mizukage". You can choose Kisame instead of him, that shark face. With the same muscles enlarged, he is much stronger than a brat like Suigetsu, right? ?
"Because since the death of the fifth Mizukage, there has been no new Mizukage in the village."

The brown-haired ninja answered cautiously, "In the hidden village, there must be a shadow, right?"

"I didn't ask you this!"

Obito frowned, and the aura emanating from his body became more and more frightening.

The brown-haired ninja looked at him blankly.

"cough!"

At this time, the oldest old man in Kirigakure's senior management couldn't help it anymore. He coughed slightly and winked at the brown-haired ninja with his cloudy old eyes.

"Elder..."

The brown-haired ninja also looked at him with a more blank expression. His brain was obviously in a state of confusion due to Obito's threats. He didn't know what this old immortal wanted him to say. ?

This village has always had a tradition of appointing the eldest elder as the "elder". Although these so-called "elders" are useless weaklings, the tradition is such that the ninjas also retain a certain amount of respect for him. .

"...What do you want to say??"

Obito asked this "elder".

"Madara-sama." The old guy stood there, his body shaking uncontrollably, looking as if he might die at any time.

His Adam's apple quivered, as if he was swallowing something, and he spoke in a dying voice, "Because the village has not elected a new Mizukage, our relationship with the daimyo has not been able to develop... The village's success Without the daimyo's funds and the wars going on, the ninjas will not be able to complete their missions and receive bounties. It will be unsustainable if this continues..."

After "Nagato" heard the old man's words, he finally understood why the village looked so depressed.

Hidden villages in every country in the world, except for some unexpected windfalls, have only two stable sources of income. One is the ninjas in the village, who get commissions by completing the tasks assigned to the hidden villages by the client, and the other is from the daimyo. Receive direct funding.

In times of war, most of the ninja's combat power was put on the battlefield and they had no time to complete other daily tasks, so they basically relied on the daimyo's funding to maintain normal operations.

However, based on the current relationship between Kirigakure Village and the Daimyo of the Country of Water...well, as far as "Nagato" knows, since they occupied Kirigakure Village, not to mention the Daimyo of the Country of Water himself, they are his subordinates Officials, princes, and ordinary wealthy clients dare not go close to the ten-mile radius around Wuyin Village.

As a result, Kirigakure Village's morale was low and its economy collapsed. It was only natural that the vendors and ordinary people in the village chose to leave.

"But why do you want Shuiyue to be a water shadow?"

Obito ignored what the Kirigakure elder said with an indifferent expression and continued to stare at the brown-haired ninja with his Sharingan.

Although he now understands that Lin's death was caused by Madara and he was probably involved.But it is an indisputable fact that the ninjas of Kirigakure Village were once involved.

Moreover, it is very difficult for him to change his habit of not treating the ninjas of Kirigakure Village as human beings in a short period of time.So, in his opinion, the life and death of Kirigakure Village has nothing to do with him?

They Xiao organized Tian Xia Invincible and finished causing harm to Kirigakure Village. Can't they just switch to another village to cause harm?Obito has not yet thought about what to do in the future and where his goal is.

"Huh??" The brown-haired ninja shuddered under Obito's formidable gaze and glanced at "Nagato" again. He seemed to have gained some courage from "Nagato" and said, "Lord Suigetsu received the inheritance from the second generation Mizukage, Lord Kiden Gengetsu."

His behavior of glancing at "Nagato" twice in a row not only made Obito strange, but also made "Nagato" feel baffled.

It wasn't until he heard what he said that "Nagato" realized. It turned out that its random actions had caused some misunderstandings to these people, thinking that it wanted to support Suigetsu?

This... These people really think too much. Why is he supporting Shuiyue?
Not to mention that it has no interest in Kirigakure Village, but to say the least, even if it really wants to fight for power in Kirigakure Village and poach Obito's corner, it can directly resurrect Terumi Mei in Yama's belly!

The stupid body originally spared Terumi Mei with this intention in mind, and was prepared to turn Terumi Mei into his puppet when necessary, becoming his last resort to control the situation in Kirigakure Village.

That's why it doesn't need to use a brat like Shuiyue!Isn’t it nice to have a ready-made Mizukage like Terumi Mei? Her prestige in Kirigakure Village is not low!
　"Princess Slug" from Part [-]

　　The name used is the name Tsunade was called by the Tsuchikage during the Five Kage Conference.

　　In the Naruto manga, there is no such thing as the Senju Princess.

　　Senju's understanding of "One Stroke" is that he is just a ninja clan, and normally there is no princess.
