Chapter 232 Deal with Mei Terumi
Chapter 232 The deal with Terumi Mei
“Mizukage-sama, it’s time to make a decision.”
Clan leader Kaguya looked at Terumi Mei, with a hint of loneliness in his tone:
"After tonight, Kirigakure Village will become history. With the three countries of Wind, Earth, and Thunder standing still, we will never be able to withstand the Konoha army led by Sarutobi Hiruzen and Uchiha Shisui, not to mention that the enemy still has Ochizuki. Experts like Ruri and Uchiha Itachi, so..."
“So, surrender directly?” Terumi Mei didn’t look back and said coldly:
“Joining Konoha is indeed a good choice for the Kaguya clan.”
“Mizukage-sama!” Chief Kaguya’s voice suddenly became heavier:
"This war has been going on for a year and a half. The Kaguya clan has charged into battle and never backed down for a moment. At this moment, the most talented children of our clan are also fighting on the battlefield. Apart from the guards and me, the people who stayed behind in Kirigakure Village are Only young children who can’t pick up a kunai yet!”
“The war has started so far, too many people have died in the village, and the Fire Country has also suffered huge losses. The two countries of Water and Fire have reached the point of blood feud. If the guys from Konoha are really allowed to rush in, who knows what will happen?”
“Is the vision of establishing the village to make everyone die?”
"Chief Goro... don't say any more." Terumi Mei turned around and looked directly at everyone in the room.
“You don’t have to tell me this.” Terumi Mei waved her hands and turned around:
With a snap, Terumi Mei fell to the ground, a sense of powerless despair filling her heart. She didn't want to get up. She just wanted to regain some strength, then rush to the front line and die in battle, and go to the Pure Land to apologize to the past Mizukage.
"Mizukage-sama, thank you, this is a wise decision!"
“Mizukage-sama, look at this scroll, we intend to show our respect to the Fifth Hokage with the lowest possible attitude…”
There is indelible fatigue and sorrow in their eyes, as well as a deep fear of the future.
“Please give an order to withdraw the troops and ask the people in Tiger Mountain to give up their resistance.”
What a difficult order... She thought like this and sighed softly:
“Chief Wulang and Elder Yuanshi, I know you have made a surrender plan... just do as you say.”
The night wind blew up, blowing Terumi Mei's long red hair, which was as messy as field weeds. As a Mizukage, Terumi Mei had not had a good night's sleep since the war broke out.
Compared with half a year ago, there are many fewer people here. Even the survivors who are still standing in front of him are all injured. The 42-year-old Kaguya clan leader Kaguya Goro has an empty right arm, with only his sleeves fluttering in the wind - This is Uchiha Shisui's masterpiece.
In the spacious room, sounds of relief were heard one after another.
She walked out of the house quickly, no longer caring about the people behind her, and returned to her room through the dark stairs and corridors.
Maybe these Kirigakure high-level officials are not afraid of death, but no one wants to see their wives and children die in front of them. As Kaguya Goro said, when the village was founded, it was with the good wish of "allowing everyone to have peace". It's the fate of the big guys to die together with the village in their arms.
“Goro and Master Yuan are in charge of the overall situation. As for me...as a shadow, I have no intention of surrendering.”
Terumi Mei knows very well that Kaguya Goro is right, the ninjas in the village are also good, and they have tried their best for Kirigakure.
But if you can't defeat it, you can't defeat it. Rather than die completely, it's better to join Konoha with the remaining strength. Although it is a better choice to seek refuge in Iwagakure and Kumogakure, the fifth generation Hokage Orochimaru is a thoughtful guy. It blocked Kirigakure's escape route and locked the last power of the Kingdom of Water in place, making it impossible for any bird to fly out.
"I'm sorry, Lord Yagura, Mangetsu, I couldn't protect what you gave me after all." Terumi Mei murmured to herself, slowly getting up, and going to prepare the ninja tools for fighting. However, she didn't even get up.
Hold Terumi Mei's head with one hand, pressing her to the ground unable to move.
“You who have Melting Escape and Boiling Escape are actually so easily approached by me. This year and a half has consumed too much of your energy...Huh, war is really not a good thing.”
A drop of cold sweat slipped from Terumi Mei's temples. As the sixth generation Mizukage, her office always displays the most top-secret information. She recognized this voice.
“You are...Hyuuga Yuuto!”
“Your ears are quite pointed, please get up.” Hinata Yuuto took away the hand on Terumi Mei’s head and chuckled:
“Don’t lie down on the ground in this position...it’s not good-looking.”
Aren’t they all given by you? The woman felt depressed, but due to Hinata Yuuto's brilliant record and powerful strength, she did not refute, she just stood up and looked at the man in front of her.
Wearing a black cloak, with long hair hanging down to his waist, and a handsome face even more handsome than Uchiha, he stood loosely in the room, as if this was his own home.
"Hyuga Yuuto, [Moon God]'s name is like thunder, but for a person like me who is about to die, it's meaningless no matter how strong you are. If you want to make a fortune from Kirigakure in the end, I advise you... "
“You are wrong, Mizukage, strength has meaning.” Hyuga Yuuto sat on Terumi Mei’s bed and sneered:
"Kirigakure was beaten here by Konoha because he was not strong enough; and you, the last Mizukage who led the village to destruction, are ridiculously weak, so you can only relieve your guilt by dying."
Terumi Mei clenched her fists:
“If you want to ridicule me, you can say it in front of my grave in the future... What is the purpose of your coming here?”
"Give you a choice, choose whether to make a deal with me." Hinata Yuuto tilted his head:
“Either let Kirigakure perish tonight, or do me a favor in exchange for the strength to survive this disaster.”
"You...are you going to take action yourself?" Terumi Mei's green eyes flashed brightly, looking at the man expectantly.
Hyuga Yuuto is recognized as the strongest person in the contemporary ninja world. The combat power of one person can destroy an entire village. Under his protection, the Amegakure Village has been peaceful for six years. If this most vicious and rebellious ninja takes action, he will definitely be able to defeat Mu. Leaf's offense.
“Stop dreaming.” Hinata Yuuto said lazily:
"The price I paid for it is very high... Even if you sell it, your village won't be able to afford it once. I will use another method to make them quit."
"What's the price? What price will Kirigakure and I have to pay?"
“Continue to fight Konoha.” Hinata Yuuto’s words made Terumi Mei’s face change greatly:
"Control the intensity of the war and make it a protracted tug of war. Because I will help you secretly, it is impossible for Konoha to destroy Kirigakure."
The woman with long red hair lowered her head and thought carefully about Hinata Yuuto's purpose.
He wants to use Kirigakure to hold back Konoha, and the war between the two major ninja villages will be beneficial to him...
After a while, Terumi Mei raised her head and spoke softly:
“Why choose Kirigakure?”
Hinata Yuuto glanced at the woman in surprise:
"It's okay, I'm not stupid. As a temporary ally, I can feel more at ease when you ask this question." He paused and then said:
"Because Kirigakure and I have no conflict of interest...you have no jinchūriki."
