Chapter 349: Capuching Words: Tailed Beast (First Update)
One in the original book of Shippuden, where Sakura Haruno didn't know the plot, Mio Isofu disappeared after the death of the fourth generation of Mizukage, and was later resurrected in the wild, and was never discovered by the Fog Ninja, but was discovered by Akatsuki first.
It is indeed a very strange thing that the power of Jiyi Village could not find the tailed beast, but was discovered first by an underground organization that was hiding in the shadows, but considering that there was still a big traitor in the Fog Ninja Village, the watermelon mountain clan, this situation was also very normal.
It's just that the current development of events has completely departed from the world line of the original book.
It must be repeated that the phrase often mentioned in the frontispiece, the butterfly effect. When Sakura Haruno's strength is getting stronger and stronger, her influence on the surroundings is also increasing, and there are more and more changes to the so-called "plot", so that the current development of Konoha is completely different from the original book.
And now, her big butterfly, which can even be said to be a big butterfly, has been greatly affected by the storm that has been closed in the past.
"It should have been" Terumi spent a long time and energy fighting wits and courage with these hidden enemies, and sacrificed many people to completely stabilize the situation of the Kiri Shinobi, and finally established a policy of peace and openness.
Now, everything has changed.
Sakura's arrival in Haruno caused both sides to speed up their plans, and in the end, with the help of the power of the Ice Escape Maiden, the Terumi faction wiped out the rebels with minimal damage, winning the final victory, and completely controlling the mist shinobi in the hands of the Mizukage.
After clearing this batch of ghosts, the Fog Ninja Village can now be described as Heqing Haiyan.
In return, the Misty Ninja Village also fell to Konoha's camp and became a pro-Konoha village.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Kiri Shinobi and Konoha are good enough to wear a pair of pants. Regarding such a sensitive matter as the tailed beast, no matter how good the relationship is, Ninja Village will not talk about it easily.
In the letter, Tsunade actually mentioned the specific resurrection time of Isofu and the place of possible resurrection.
That's the absolute secret of the Fog Ninja Village.
After all, the Misty Ninja is an independent village, and although it has been decided to establish diplomatic relations with Konoha, if Konoha is coerced to repay the favor, the Misty Ninja will not agree to that excessive request.
Terumi's face darkened, and she carefully read this paragraph word by word before turning to the next page.
She read the entire text before she understood what Tsunade meant.
Tsunade's words mean to remind the misty shinobi that he must recapture Isofu as quickly as possible, otherwise he may be the first to be taken by the Xiao organization!
The letter also mentions that Konoha can send troops to assist the Kiristin in capturing the Tailed Beast in this matter.
Seeing this, the first thought in Terumi's heart was to reject it without hesitation.
Konoha came to help catch the tailed beast, and when the time comes, will the Isofu caught return to Konoha or to the mist ninja?
Terumi doesn't have that much trust in Konoha yet!
In the eyes of the fifth generation of Mizukage, Konoha is just like the girl in front of her, looking beautiful, gentle and amiable, soft and weak without any threat, but in fact she is strong;
"Capturing Isofu is Kiristin's own business, and he doesn't need outside help. This suggestion that you made ...... It's ridiculous and we can't accept it. Terumi shook her head and said solemnly.
Her firm tone indicated that there was nothing negotiable about the matter.
"Sorry, that sounds ridiculous," Sakura Haruno said, taking a step closer, "but with all due respect, in the current situation, any tailed beast is no longer just a matter of a single ninja village. ”
Terumi glanced at her with a gloomy face, the gentle smile on her face vanished, and her eyes motioned for her to continue.
"'Akatsuki' is now preparing to collect tailed beasts, and we don't know what their purpose is, but this organization has collected nearly ten 'shadow' level ninjas, and there are even ninjas who are one level higher than the ordinary 'shadow' level and can control the shadow of a village. This power is very terrifying, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are enough to confront one or two large ninja villages head-on, and even win in battle! If they gain the power of the Tailed Beast again, then they can do whatever they want, whatever they want......"
Sakura Haruno's expression was so solemn for the first time: "When the time comes, maybe the entire ninja world will unite, and it may not be their opponent!"
"So we must take action to protect the human pillar force and the tailed beasts, and sabotage their plans! And the Isofu, who has just escaped from the control of your village, is the most vulnerable part of the tailed beast protection link! With your own strength, it is very likely that you will fail to capture the Isofu!"
Terumi's face was ugly.
She frowned, and when she thought about it, she realized that the seriousness of the problem was not an exaggeration by Sakura Haruno and Konoha.
Isofu is really dangerous!
The three-tailed Isofu was supposed to be in Xiao's bag, but after the four generations of Mizukage were defeated by her, the tailed beast died, and Isofu unexpectedly broke out of Xiao's control. Obviously, when Isofu is resurrected, Xiao will definitely come to retrieve this tailed beast.
However, Xiao controlled the fog ninja, and knew with his knees that the village had long been infiltrated by them, and even if the watermelon mountain clan was eradicated, it would not be possible to ensure that there were no other spies in the village......
Moreover, Akatsuki knows Isofu even more than the village! They know the exact date of Isofu's resurrection, its habits in the wild, the waters it may infest, its ninjutsu, its powers.
In terms of intelligence, the Fog Ninja Village is lagging behind Xiao in all aspects.
What's even more terrifying is that Akatsuki can send two shadow-level ninjas out at any time to carry out the task of recovering the tailed beast!
And what about Kiri Shinobi?
Do you want her to be a Mizukage and the only remaining six-tailed human pillar force to go out together?
Then the village's defenses would be too empty.
As a fifth-generation Mizukage, it is impossible for Terumi to make such a risky act. Even if the three tails are lost, they still have the strength of the six-tailed human pillar. If the village is attacked by Xiao by taking the opportunity, with the current pile of old, weak, sick and disabled people in the Fog Ninja Village, I am afraid that they will not be able to stop their footsteps!
But sending out ordinary ninjas, probably not to deliver food to Akatsuki?
Terumi's eyes flickered a few times.
"If only the Ninja Seven were still around......," she sighed and whispered to herself.
It's a pity that the ninja knives that remain in the village now are only flounder double knives. Nagakuro had just gotten it, but Isofu was about to be resurrected, and he couldn't count on his combat effectiveness.
Sakura Haruno saw that Mizukage-sama's eyes kept wandering, but she didn't refute her, and she knew that Terumi had realized the seriousness of the problem.
She struck while the iron was hot and continued: "Konoha is not a tailed beast that covets you, to be honest, our human pillar strength is very stable, and there is no need to covet other tailed beasts!
"Please believe us, believe in Konoha's credibility, Konoha has never been the short-sighted ninja village who picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons!"
Terumi's brows and nose furrowed together, and her mind was thinking quickly.
Konoha credibility ...... It's true that they have a good reputation when it comes to their employers, but when it's another ninja village, who can guarantee that they will keep their promises?
Of course, historically, there are very few promises made by Konoha that have not been fulfilled, and their reputation is indeed good, but when it comes to tailed beasts, they must be extremely cautious and cannot be easily decided.
Terumi has a sense of movement.
Judging from the current situation, intelligence and combat power are all inferior, and competing with Xiao to capture the three-tailed isofu, the fog forbearance is more than enough but not enough.
It's just that what if Konoha has ulterior motives and takes the opportunity to snatch Isofu?
To put it bluntly, Konoha and Kiri Shinobi have only been established for less than an hour, and Tsunade has talked about such a sensitive topic, which is really a bit abrupt and reckless.
However, from Sakura Haruno's point of view, Isofu's resurrection is imminent, and Kiri Shinobi has no ability to solve this problem alone. If it was a normal time, the mist shinobi still had time to slowly arrange, and Konoha still had time to slowly build mutual trust with the misty ninja, but at the moment, he had to race against time and Xiao, and he really couldn't delay!
"If you want to cooperate to capture Isofu, how do you cooperate with each other?" Terumi said as she unconsciously flipped her red lips with her fingers.
Seeing that her tone was somewhat relaxed, Sakura Haruno breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Of course, everything is still dominated by your mist ninja, and we are only providing personnel help, such as sending a reconnaissance squad and an elite combat force team. ”
She looked at Zhao Meiming's face and added: "The powers, including the writing wheel eye, can come over and help!"
"Uchiha Sasuke......" Terumi moved in her heart and asked again, "What about the 'shadow' level combat power, can you also come over to help?"
When she said this, her eyes looked at Sakura Haruno fixedly, and it was self-evident who the so-called "shadow" level combat power referred to.
Sakura nodded.
This kind of task against the Tailed Beast, and possibly even against the Shangxiao, whenever possible, the village will try to send out the highest level of combat power.
However, in this case, should the seventh class simply be sent out?
Naruto will probably return to Konoha at the end of this year or the beginning of next year...... It may be in time.
In addition, I heard that Kakashi has made a breakthrough recently, and his strength has passed the stage of elite shinobi and stepped into the threshold of the "Shadow" level.
If that's the case, the combat power is a little too inflated!
Terumi didn't agree to this matter in the end, but just said that it was a big deal, and even if she was a Mizukage, she couldn't decide this matter, and she had to go through the internal discussion and research of the Mist Ninja.
"We understand, but please try it as soon as possible, the resurrection of Isofu should be in the near future, right? We must make a decision before then, and it will take time to deploy and arrange personnel. Sakura Haruno said so.
Konoha Fang was already overjoyed that Terumi was willing to let go.
Before the mission, Tsunade talked to Sakura Haruno about some problems in this letter, and for the matter of the tailed beast, if the mist ninja side did not flatly refuse on the spot, it would be considered a success.
As long as the fog ninja is willing to talk about it, everything is easy to say. After all, both villages have been personally hurt by Xiao, and they are deeply hurt by Xiao, and they are sincerely trying to fight against Xiao, and with this foundation, many things are easy to talk about.
There are more than a dozen things in the letter, big and small, and most of the Mizukage can represent the fog ninja, but some core things need to be further negotiated.
"It just so happens that we're going to Konoha to take the middle ninja exam, so let's take that opportunity to solve these things together!" Terumi finally concluded.
She put the letter away and stuffed it into her arms, reaching out for a second time to hold it tightly with Sakura Haruno.
"Happy working together!"
In this way, Sakura Haruno sent a mist shinobi this time, and the goals that Tsunade wanted her to accomplish in the open and in the dark were all achieved.
Well, it's time for the Haruno Sakura class to go back.
