Chapter 252: Watergate: And?! It's endless!
"Hmph... If you ask Uncle Ben to come out, isn't it very shameless? ”
The snarky voice seemed to be dissatisfied with Seiichi's attitude towards it.
But saying that, the black cauldron was still with a curl up, and a blue-striped cat head with a strange appearance suddenly entered everyone's field of vision.
Look at the strange tanuki head, and the wisps of huge chakra aura that faintly overflowed from the perception.
Watergate was really suddenly dark-eyed.
This kind of chakra fluctuation, he was all too familiar with...
After being entangled, Watergate sighed:
“... If I'm not mistaken. ”
"I should have been given a mission to investigate intelligence?"
Watergate, who has always been extremely clear-headed, has a little bit of a tense situation at this moment.
I asked you to investigate the root cause of the abnormal sandstorm, but I didn't let you catch the source of the sandstorm!
In essence, the fact that the tailed beast experiment was carried out in the Sand Hidden Village was basically a matter that everyone knew about but could not be identified in the upper layer of Konoha.
The so-called 'investigation of the cause of the anomalous sandstorm' is actually to collect evidence of the Tailed Beast experiment in the Sand Hidden Village.
After all, Konoha had just regained peace, and it was impossible to forcibly stop the other party's tailed beast experiment by force without evidence.
But the other side's trespassing, in disregard of the peace treaty, is a political bargaining chip that can be traded.
As long as his actions are 'caught', then whether it is the Land of the Wind or the Sand Hide, it will be a good profit opportunity for Konoha to be held accountable.
Of course, it will also be a 'outsider' achievement after Mizumon took office as Hokage, following 'Annai'.
If you want the families in Konoha to be obedient, it is not enough to have the name of only one 'Hokage', and the strength of only the Hokage is also not enough.
The most important thing is to have a sufficient 'role' as the Hokage.
You've got to make everyone in Konoha 'profit', or... Let one of them 'profit'.
In this way, they will recognize you, feel that you are on the same side as them, and realize your goodness.
No matter how many times the slogan is shouted, the will of fire burns stubble after stubble, and it is not as good as everyone having meat on the table at home, and it is better for every family to have family fun for both parents.
Why are the villagers willing to recognize Watergate?
Because Watergate is an example of heroism among the common people!
Even the Uchiha and Hinata, who have powerful bloodline power, don't they have an existence that is comparable to Bo Feng Shuimen? Isn't there one who can stand on top of that Hokage Rock?
They are willing to believe in Watergate...
It's because Watergate is 'very similar' to them.
But the family power... It's not the same.
At the beginning of his ascension to power, the four Hokages carried out a rather bloody internal cleanup of the shadows in the depths of Konoha, although the families saw their methods and understood their determination.
But this kind of thing... In fact, it was also a blow to Konoha.
Although that guy doesn't do anything, he does everything he can to be ruthless in his heart.
But you have to say that this guy is not only in the nest, he does the same outside the nest.
After clearing it, Konoha did not have to put everyone at risk, but the intelligence network built with the roots as the core temporarily collapsed, and the deterrence system established by it no longer applied.
The families were also a little overly relaxed after losing the 'brocade guard' who might come to the door at any time.
In his position, although Watergate has not thought about too many similar incidents in the past, this guy is actually as good as ever.
Therefore, Watergate not only needs the power of 'security', but also the power of 'outside'.
Whether it's sending Jiraiya-sensei to the Land of Rain to visit and establish contact with the Akatsuki organization, or sending Kakashi to the east to deal with the Fog Hidden Battlefield to gather intelligence, it's all for this.
Of course, Seiichi and Obito are too.
It's just that Watergate has a lot of impact on these two...
Actually, I don't really get my hopes up.
Well... It's not that Watergate thinks they're incompetent.
Although it is a bit too much to let Mizumon, who is a teacher, say this kind of thing, but with soil...
Indeed um... I can't quite come up with an idea.
He's not as young and measured as Kakashi.
Although he has a lot of enthusiasm and now has the strength to practice his blood, he... In fact, it doesn't have its own direction.
According to the standards of the water gate, Obito is not a qualified 'ninja' enough.
Because he is not mature enough.
And another...
Seiichi Uchiha...
With the soil, it can be said that there are two extremes.
If Obito is not very assertive, he can't come up with any ideas, and he doesn't quite understand where he is going and needs to be guided.
This other... That's the point that the assertiveness is so strong that some oil and salt don't enter, so that they are a little stubborn.
In the view of Watergate... This incredibly powerful teenager is also not because of a qualified 'ninja'.
Because this boy has always been like a 'lone wolf' in his eyes.
Even on the surface, he attaches great importance to friendship and bonds, and has his own code of conduct and proportion.
But in fact... He has always been arbitrary, cutting first and then playing.
The most terrible... Even so, he always found a reason to convince himself.
Let Watergate judge that this teenager can't see the direction... Maybe it's a bit of a shelf.
Even sometimes Watergate doesn't think that he can see the future clearly, with this young man far away...
However, this teenager does not care enough about 'cooperation' and is not good enough at 'patience'.
He was too 'mature', but not stable enough.
So much so that Watergate couldn't find a good way to face him.
When Seiichi applied to him for this task, Mizuto didn't think that the two might be able to complement each other.
This somewhat dangerous mission allows Obito and Seiichi to be more concerned about cooperation when performing tasks, and they can both grow.
That's what Watergate wants to see the most.
Even that mission... He had already thought about the possibility of failure at the time of the award, so the mission objectives were extremely ambiguous.
There is even a slight hint of abusing power for personal gain.
He just wanted to prevent this uncontrollable Uchiha Seiichi from starting to move in without permission after he failed to achieve the expected goal, and then caused an incident far beyond the expected range.
But the result?
The result...
Should this guy go in or do it right?
Obi-soil... was obviously taken away by this guy...
It seems that the indoor air is slightly condensed after the water gate speaks, and Shouhe is dissatisfied:
"Hmph, little ghost, your Hokage-sama doesn't seem to be in a good mood when he sees Uncle Ben?"
"No," Mizuto took a deep breath and spit out, "I just didn't expect the legendary Sand no Morizuru... It's such a good communicative existence. ”
"Legend has it that you're a grumpy guy who doesn't accept anyone."
The blue-striped tanuki sneered: "Unconvinced? Why do you humans make Uncle Ben obey? ”
Of course, to say that, such a first meeting with the four generations of Hokage, Shouzuru's impression of him is okay.
At least not as arrogant as Raksha.
Mizuto didn't plan to quarrel with this tailed beast first, but withdrew his eyes to look at Seiichi, his expression... Apparently really angry.
"Ahem..."
Seiichi cleared his throat slightly, and put on a posture that he was going to start talking about from 'a long, long time ago'.
"Lord Watergate, listen to me."
Now, Mizumon is no longer good at saying that the Hokage can't leave the village for too long.
Questions about a tailed beast... It is not an exaggeration to say that it takes ten days and a half months or even a year to arrange.
It's... One of the foundations of a country.
"Here's the thing... After Obito and I arrived in the country of Kawano, because we didn't have the information on the current strategic deployment of the country of wind, we designed to seduce and ambush and capture a group of spy ninjas in the territory of the country of Kawano. ”
Watergate nodded: "Hmm... It's reasonable, and it's an excellent choice to get information and then act. ”
"Then during our interrogation, we found that we had ambushed... It seems to be a ninja of Konoha? ”
Watergate: "? ”
"Still, we were able to get their Sand Ninja Defense Line and access to the Land of Wind... It's just that the reconnaissance team seems to be a little strange. ”
"You mean..."
"Well, I'm afraid this matter will have to be checked by Lord Watergate to check the situation of the intelligence team on the recent shift."
Shuimen frowned slightly and pondered: "There was indeed a situation with the intelligence team in the direction of the Wind Country before, two of the five members were seriously injured, and the leader of the team is now missing in order to divert the enemy, and it is very likely that he has been taken away by the Sand Ninja." ”
Makoto nodded and said, "That's fine, the guy who was 'kidnapped'." ”
"It's an enemy spy, or... Traitor. ”
Shuimen's eyes sank slightly, and his expression was a little unnatural: "So you..."
"Well, the whereabouts are revealed."
Watergate: "..."
"Based on its intelligence, we used our tactical advantage to infiltrate the Land of Wind, and followed the caravan all the way to the vicinity of Sand Hidden Village..."
"Then, he was ambushed by Sand Shinobi in front of the entrance to the village."
"You should retreat right here!"
Now, how could Mizuto not know the fact that Seiichi Uchiha could also fly the Thunder God's technique, and in this case, using the Flying Thunder God to transfer and retreat was completely feasible.
"Well..."Seiichi scratched his head, a little hard to make up.
Because it's true that as Watergate said, they can run whenever they want.
"It's not very strong on the other side! Teacher. ”
But at this time, the guy with soil didn't know whether it was a brain opening or a water in his head, anyway, it was a good time to make up for the cognitive feedback that a 'second goods' should have.
"We subdued all the other side with three strikes and five divisions, and even left enough time for the caravan leading us to evacuate... I didn't hurt the other party's life either! ”
"You..."
Watergate was also dumb for a while when he heard this.
They were in front of each other's villages... Fought a big fight with each other?
Even judging from the results, it is still a scene of ease?
That's not right... The last time he tested Obito himself, he shouldn't have been strong enough to do that...
But in any case, both of them have returned safely at the moment, and the result is good.
Watergate exhaled deeply again: "And then? ”
"Hmm... Then when we started a conversation with each other, the fourth generation of Kazekage Raksha appeared. ”
"Four generations of Wind Shadow Luosha..."As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, it was another crisis that followed, and Shuimen couldn't help but bring up his heart again.
Speaking of this, Obito was indignant:
"He attacked us with a big cube while we were talking! They even stoned a lot of their own ninjas! It's unreasonable! ”
“... And then? ”
"Hmm... Then we beat him up first with the new tactics we had trained, and when Seiichi wanted to talk to the other side again, he suddenly started fighting with us, setting off a big storm! Crack Makoto's mask open! ”
“...”
"Then we roasted him."
Watergate was dumbfounded: "... Raksha, dead? ”
Obito shook his head: "No, according to what Chengyi said, there should only be three matures." ”
Watergate:...
Then Seiichi suddenly had an idea, and he talked to the old woman who came out on the other side to find out the results of the battle.
Obito cleared his throat slightly, searched the scene in his brain, tilted his head slightly, and said in a tone that mimicked that time:
"We're going to buy a one-tailed Sand no Morizuru from Sunagakure... The price, the four generations of the Wind Shadow, is it enough? ”
This emotional narration stunned the four generations of Hokage, who were also 'shadows', for a while.
However, Shouhe on the side obviously likes Obito's performance.
"Hahahaha!! So that's it! Luo Sha, this dog day, you also have today! ”
No wonder these two puppies look so pleasing to the eye!
It should be said that these two guys were quite pleasing to the eye in the first place, but now they are even more pleasing to the eye!
Shuimen couldn't help but close his eyes and pinch his eyebrows.
“... Any more information? ”
"Well, then..."
"Bring soil later..."
"You tell the teacher to take a break..."
Obviously, it was the Watergate teacher who asked him if he still had any information, but why did he ask him to wait for a while, and he still looked like he had a headache?
Obito is obviously unaware...
This good-natured, naturally dull-minded Hokage-sama of the fourth generation is already roaring filial piety in his heart at this moment.
Really?!
There is still ?!!
There's no end!!
