Chapter 331: Undercurrent Rises (Second Update!)
Fog Ninja Village. Mizukage Building.
As the administrative center, the building itself is rather unremarkable, only five stories high, and houses Mizukage's offices and some important meeting rooms.
"You are the messenger of Konoha?" Terumi sat in the middle of the solemn and spacious conference room, looking at Sakura Haruno, whose age could not even be described as young but young, her eyebrows as thin as willow leaves were raised, and she said lightly.
She was a young woman, in her twenties, with a mature woman's temperament in her eyebrows, and her long burgundy hair and bright red lips were the most eye-catching, which seemed to hint at the character of the owner.
"Yes, I am. Sakura Haruno said calmly, handing the Konoha document to Hakura, "This is the proof of identity, and the handwritten letter from the five generations of Hokage to you. ”
Hakura carefully opened it to inspect it, and then handed it over to Terumi.
The moment the two made eye contact, Zhao Meiming seemed to understand something from Ye Cang's eyes, she thoughtfully opened the envelope, looked at it for a while, and a smile appeared on Mingyan's face, which was very charming.
"Tsunade's disciple, Sakura Haruno?" she asked with a smile, glancing at the girl in front of her with interest, "Please take a seat." ”
Sakura smiled and nodded, and sat down in the guest seat according to Hakura's arrangement, with the three students sitting behind her.
The other people in the conference room also looked over, there were elders and high-ranking people sitting at the top, and there were also powerful ninjas sitting on both sides, and the meanings in their eyes were also different, some were suspicious, some were jealous, some were welcome, some were indifferent, some were eager, and there were old and cloudy eyes, and they couldn't see its meaning clearly.
Sakura Haruno didn't care, just bowed slightly to both sides.
Terumi quickly read the letter, passed it to an elder sitting on her right hand, and exchanged a few words with Sakura Haruno while they were flipping through it.
"Mizukage-sama, speaking of which, the surname Terumi also has in Konoha, and my neighbor also happens to have the surname Terumi, and the family is also a ninja! She often saw Zhaomei Yin and Youyue, and she also partnered with Youyue a few times when she was in the shadows, so she was a little curious.
"The Terumi family is not a big surname. Terumi said with a smile, "In the early years of war, some members of our clan were exiled overseas, and it is not uncommon for them to take root abroad. However, as the Mist Ninja Village takes off the hat of the Blood Mist and opens up to the outside world, it is believed that the ninjas who were displaced back then will also return to the village one after another, after all, this is still their hometown. ”
"Tomorrow in Kirishinobi Village will be even better. Terumi said firmly.
"It's not just a simple war," the elder who sat first under the water shadow interjected, "Back then, when our village was still in the blood mist, the blood family was excluded and several big clans in the village were exterminated, and many people in the Terumi clan escaped from the village at that time. ”
Terumi pursed her lips and laughed without smiling.
"Is the Terumi clan also a blood family?" Haruno Sakura recalled the information of the Terumi family in her heart, Uncle Terumi worked in Konoha Hospital, and his physical examination information was very detailed, but I didn't see what kind of blood inheritance their clan had.
"Our clan is quite special," Mizukage smiled faintly and said, "It's not a secret, the main thing is that the Terumi clan sometimes has a special spiritual trait that makes it easier for us to cultivate the Blood Inheritance Limit than ordinary people, so our clan is also known as the Blood Inheritance Family that is not a Blood Inheritance Family." ”
Konoha has people from the Terumi clan, and sooner or later they will know their secrets, so the mist ninja side doesn't hide anything.
Is it a spiritual dual-core ...... by nature?
Sakura Haruno immediately understood the meaning of Terumi Ming, Sakura also had this trait in the original book, and after she crossed over, she formed a three-core soul, and this spiritual trait can indeed reduce the difficulty of cultivating the blood inheritance limit a lot.
On the other hand, there are gains and losses, and the Zhaomei family is also prone to schizophrenic mental patients, which is their blood succession.
Moreover, if you want to fuse into the Blood Inheritance Limit, you still need to practice the two retreat techniques to the extreme.
Does Terumi have the Blood Inheritance Limit?Sakura Haruno secretly guessed, but on this occasion, it was not easy for her to carefully probe other people's chakras.
"Ever since our village overthrew the bloody rule of Yakura and set things right, the order to persecute the Blood Tsuge family was immediately revoked, and Mizukage-sama was most credited to it. The elder said slowly.
Terumi smiled a little stiffly, and glanced at him.
Sakura Haruno faintly heard the smell of gunpowder, and the elder had a slightly sarcastic tone, as if he was secretly saying that Terumi overthrew Yakura's rule only so that she and her family would not be oppressed by the higher-ups, not for the sake of the future of the Kirist Ninja Village.
"Some policies are ills that need to be eliminated, and some are not," the elder's voice was old and sluggish, and he turned to Sakura Haruno and asked, "When your village was established, it was based on the alliance between Senju and Uchiha, but you don't know how many people in your village still have the surname Senju and how many people surnamed Uchiha?"
Sakura Haruno couldn't answer that question.
She lowered her gaze, and for a moment, she didn't know what to say.
The elder didn't care about her silence, only took her acquiescence, and continued: "A village within a village established with a family bloodline as a bond will inevitably harm the interests of the village, this is the consensus of the ninja world, and even the most powerful Konoha agrees with this opinion. ”
Speaking of which, Sakura Haruno also had to admit that what he said made some sense, if the ninja world moves forward, the ideal state should be to have a family without a clan, just as the industrial society in the previous life abandoned the concept of family in the feudal era;
At least in Konoha, the main combat power of ninjas is still from various families, large and small. There should still be no corrupt system for connecting ninjas from various families through ninja schools, breaking away from the shackles of one clan and becoming ninjas of one village.
In this sense, the elder's view is too far forward to be detached from reality.
Terumi's eyes were a little colder, and the elder brought out the example of Konoha that made her a little difficult to deal with for a while.
"Mizukage-sama once said that he wanted to learn from Konoha's open-door policy, why not learn to fight the blood family? Even Konoha's envoy admitted that Konoha no longer has the surname Senju and Uchiha, why did the five generations of adults bring the Mizuki and Kaguya clans back to the village?"
The atmosphere was a bit weird, and Mizukage and the First Elder were arguing about these contents in front of the Konoha Emissary, which showed how serious the differences within the Mist Shinobi were.
Everyone in the conference room was silent, and no one dared to interject.
Terumi took a slow breath and said lightly, "My Misty Ninja Village and the Land of Water have their own national conditions, so I don't have to learn Konoha for every policy. What's more, not every blood family in Konoha has been hit, and the Hyuga and other clans are also alive and well now, right, Sakura Haruno?"
"That's true. Sakura nodded.
It is Terumi who adheres to the open-door policy, and she naturally prefers Terumi to the side.
"Mizuki and Kaguya are the Uchiha or Hyuga of my village, please don't get confused. The elder said unhurriedly, "Mizukage-sama's statement that we should establish policies based on our national conditions and the actual situation of the village is very reasonable. “
first praised a sentence, and then the words changed sharply: "Our Water Country and Fog Ninja Village are isolated overseas, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and naturally not easy to be interfered with by mainland countries and Ninja Village. At such a time, why not close the country to the rest of the world, keep quiet and silently accumulate strength, and wait for the future to participate in the struggle for hegemony on the mainland, but instead open up the village at the weakest time, attracting unwarranted covetousness from other countries?
As he spoke, he glanced at Sakura Haruno.
Many people in the conference room nodded secretly, it seems that there are many supporters of this statement, in fact, judging from his words alone, it is not unreasonable.
The history of the Misty Ninja is a series of histories of seclusion and seclusion, and enclosing themselves has indeed allowed them to gain a lot of benefits, maintain their mystery, and make them survive many times of internal and external emptiness.
The cruel Blood Mist no Sato policy, the graduates killing each other and insisting on fighting the Blood Succession Family, actually made the Misty Ninja Village suffer from self-blood loss and lack of access all year round. It's hard to get together a ninja knife Seven people are already at the peak of the fog ninja's combat power, and then the seven people died and defected, and there was only one ninja knife left in the village, and what was even more surprising was that the fog ninja didn't have the strength to search for the ninja knife back!
Sakura Haruno also came to the Land of Water to see it with her own eyes this time, and only then did she realize that the combat power of the Mist Shinobi was so low. Over the years, countries on the mainland have been at war with foreign countries, and the fog ninja is fighting with himself, wasting a great opportunity for development.
If Konoha was as weak as them, he would have been torn to pieces by the wolves around him!
Unlike the kind of closed country that "the Celestial Empire has abundant products and has everything, and it does not rely on foreign goods to get through what is available", Elder Mist Ninja proposed to block the country out of lack of confidence in his country's strength.
Terumi's face was very gloomy.
Her gaze swept away from the elder and swept over the room, some staring calmly ahead, some looking confused, some lowering their eyes and not knowing what to think, and others drifting their eyes away from meeting the Mizukage's gaze.
The fifth generation of Mizukage took a deep breath, soothed the restlessness in his heart, and said, "No matter how many differences we have, in front of the Konoha Messenger, we should also act as a whole, rather than a plate of loose sand for people to see as a joke. ”
Her voice was cold and awe-inspiring.
This is from the height of the fog ninja as a whole to criticize the elder for not knowing the general situation, and exposing the ugliness of the fog ninja in front of the envoy from the other village, regardless of whether everyone in the audience agrees with the elder's point of view, most of them feel that the elder's excuse is a bit too much at this moment.
Terumi glanced at everyone in the audience faintly, and said: "Since there are still many people who have different opinions, it just so happens that everyone is also gathered together today, so let's take this opportunity to say it all!
"Hakura, please take the Konoha envoy to visit our village," she turned her head to give Hakura a look and smiled at Haruno Sakura again, "I'm sorry to make you laugh." ”
Sakura Haruno smiled softly, and then led the three students to follow in the footsteps of Hakura and leave the conference room.
She had a smile on her face, but her heart was tense.
The look in the eyes of the water shadow just now seems to be very rich......
What does she want to do?
(The second update! guaranteed update 2/2.) The Fog Ninja Village couldn't find an official setting, so I had to go to see Boruto, but it turned out that the Fog Ninja Village was a few decades later, and it had already changed a lot. I had to be original, and it felt so good to create the world, but I was a little worried about being slapped in the face, and I was nervous!)
