The order of one village and one country has been established for more than fifty years. On the surface, the ninja village is bound to the country to which it belongs. In fact, the positions of the two may not be exactly the same.
Ninjas are a group of people who master the power of force. They live by their skills and lick blood from their swords. It is basically impossible to expect them to completely merge with the "finance master" without some special reason.
Feral beasts with sharp teeth and claws naturally eat meat. If they really change to a vegetarian diet, wouldn't it be a waste of the "weapons" that our ancestors spent tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of years evolving?
Even the panda, which looks like a vegetarian, is actually an omnivore. It is essentially a bear. When it is very hungry or wants a change of taste, it will awaken its hunting instinct and eat meat. It can crush and swallow even the hardest skull. Go down.
There are no species of animals that can successfully survive to this day that refuse protein. Not only pandas, hippos, donkeys, goats, etc., they also don’t reject ready-made meat, and occasionally eat small mice that are brought to their mouths. Toothpaste, supplement trace elements and improve intestinal flora. Perhaps the digestive systems of these herbivores are no longer adapted to a long-term meat-eating life, so eating some meat every now and then is not a problem.
The same principle applies to the group of ninjas.
Armed with a sharp blade, the murderous intention arises. There are gold belts for killing people and setting fires, but there are no corpses for repairing bridges and repairing roads. Farming is too slow. Robbery or cutting leeks are the only "jobs" worthy of a career that licks blood.
From Gu Shan Bu Shui's point of view, he must always be thinking about "taming" these unruly guys with the resources at his hand. For the Ninja Village, this is not the case.
It is completely normal for Kirigakure Village to secretly stab the daimyo of the Land of Water. As long as the truth is not true, Konohagakure will definitely not miss the opportunity to "eye-drop" the Furusugi family.
Of course, intrigue is one thing. Once fundamental interests are involved, the ninja village and the daimyo will definitely advance and retreat together. If the meat is rotten in the pot, it is a question of how to divide it. Once it is snatched away by others, who knows how long it will take. It can be made up for.
Terumi Mei serves as the channel for communication between Kirigakure Village and the Furusugi family, and she also has a rough idea of the secrets involved. In addition to the division of spheres of influence and the exchange of interests, the most important benefit to her is to suppress the spread of the curse seal.
After determining the general framework and leaving the details to his subordinates to negotiate, Terumi Mei breathed a sigh of relief.
"The Yondaime asked me to take care of these trivial matters. I am unwilling to do so. Unfortunately, I am also one of the 'conditions' and have to do it myself."
"Miss Terumi is indeed easier to talk to than Ao from your village."
"That person... just isn't tactful enough, but he's actually an easy person to get along with."
"Beauty should be more pleasing to the eye."
"Ah……"
Terumi Mei, who smiled charmingly, exchanged a few words and then started the main topic of the day.
"How much does the young governor know about the curse seal?"
"I know more than you in Kirigakure Village, and I even know better than most people in the ninja world what the hell this thing is..."
"I feel relieved that you are so confident. I have really suffered a lot during this period, and I have been tortured terribly by it."
Terumi Mei breathed a sigh of relief.
The biggest danger of the curse seal is that it is difficult to control. Once the emotions are out of control or the mental fluctuations are magnified, they will start to cause trouble, gradually eroding the host's body and corrupting the will.
If it continues to develop, it will either be squeezed to death by the curse seal, or it will become a puppet unable to resist.
"So, what I want..."
Without waiting for Kosugi Bosui to finish, Terumi Mei took out three seal scrolls and spread them out. In the center of the dense formations, there was a mass of crimson swirling patterns.
"The three tails of the six-tailed rhinoceros are yours. Please help me as soon as possible. If you delay it any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on at any time."
"Understood."
Putting away the three precious seal scrolls, Gu Shan Bu Shui suppressed the joy in his heart.
"Give me one day to prepare. Miss Terumi also needs to adjust her condition. Tomorrow at 3:30 noon, the next step of sealing will be carried out."
"That's good."
Terumi Mei, who has been waiting for several months, does not lack a day or two.
"I would like to ask, has the Gushan family really received the sealing technique inheritance from the Uzumaki clan?"
"How can it be?"
Young Governor Gushan laughed and said,
"When the Uzumaki Kingdom was destroyed, Takamura was also one of the accomplices. Miss Terumi may not know much, but the Fourth Mizukage should understand. There is nothing left of the Uzumaki clan at all. Except for those sent to Konoha Village, they were all destroyed. once."
The rumor that finding a Uzumaki orphan as a lover will lead to a thousand-year inheritance is simply untenable. If they really have that kind of ability, those survivors will not need assistance like the ancient cedar water to restore their country.
"Then where did you know so many secret techniques, Major Governor?"
Gushan Bu Shui smiled reservedly:
"You guys, you always focus on those famous ninja clans, but you don't pay attention to the Gusugi clan. Regarding the history of the family name, my ancestors held the clouds of the sky to kill demons and monsters, and protected the reproduction of the human race. When you are alive, you don't know where the Senju, Uchiha or Uzumaki are. Later generations only remember the legend of the two gods of good and evil - Asura and Indra who subdued demons, but the Gusugi clan was submerged In the dust of history..."
"Asura and Indra, aren't those heroic demigods from mythology?"
Gushan Bushui smiled and shook his head, spreading his hands.
"Sennin of the Six Paths taught the Ninja Sect and laid the foundation for the rise of Ninjutsu. Ninjas, as direct descendants, regard their ancestors as fabricated myths that do not exist. It is true that things have changed and people have changed. After all, there are only a few records of Konoha Village. You guys I don’t remember Kirigakure Village at all.”
】
"So, you also believe those mythical stories are true?"
After all, he was a figure in the fifth generation of the Mizukage in the original timeline. It is impossible for Terumi Mei to completely trust Fusagi Fusui's words.
"It's not a matter of belief or not, but the fact that we are here is evidence in itself."
Gushan Bushui does not plan to continue this topic. Anyway, we will encounter shocking facts in the future.
"Getting back to the subject, the Kosugi family has already collected many unique inheritances of the ninja clan. The top secrets may not be as advanced as those of the five major ninja villages. In terms of richness, your Kirigakure village really can't compare."
For example, the Kaguya clan and the Minazuki clan, which are already extinct in Kirigakure Village, are still under the command of Kosugi Fusui, and the Kingdom of Water is probably extinct.
"Okay, that means that the Gushan family already has such strength, but it's just not known to everyone?"
"No one knew how to use them before and couldn't bring out their value..."
Until the accident of Gushan Bushui happened,
"Besides, I have a very good relationship with the Leaf Village. We have many business dealings. As long as it's not a forbidden technique in the Book of Sealing, I can always get it for a little price."
In fact, the Kosugi family even has the address of the real-life entrance to Miaomu Mountain, and the basics of celestial magic cultivation methods are also recorded. In the history of hundreds of years, there have been three or four strong masters who went to Miaomu Mountain with confidence. Try your luck, but unfortunately, none of them came back.
That kind of ghost place is hard to get in and even harder to get out. Those toads are also snobbish. The ancestor of the Furusugi family is the bastard of "Kaguya Princess". He had no intention of dealing with the two brothers, Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, who had betrayed him. He expected them to hand over the magic to them. It is simply impossible to give it to the old and the young with the surname "Gushan".
"Let's put it this way, in the ninja world for thousands of years, there is probably no one who knows more than us, the Kosugi clan. However, it is only limited to knowing, and we only have a superficial taste. The real secrets are not our turn. The Senju and Uchiha are too strong. , coupled with the constraints from all parties, the country of Izumo cannot unify the ninja world."
"It's a bit like an old family. When you brag, no one else can find fault."
Terumi Mei shrugged and responded casually,
"As long as you can control the curse seal in my body, I believe that you are indeed an ancient tribe with a long history."
"Miss Terumi can't change the truth if she doesn't believe it."
Gusugi Fusui did not continue to explain, waved his hand and asked the servant to lead Terumi Mei down to rest. Later, Chai Zhou was called over.
"Young Master, we can obviously take action right away, why do we have to wait until tomorrow?"
"Put it off, lest the Mist Ninja think it's too simple and not worth paying such a high price. Continue to organize some 'accidents' for me tomorrow. A delay of three to five days is the basis, and ten and a half months is not too little."
"Understood."
Chai Zhou understood.
"Do you want to do something?"
"No need. This female mist ninja is not simple. She is most likely the successor trained by the baby-faced old man who lost her warehouse in Gouji. Otherwise, it would be impossible to save it at such a high price. Something like a curse seal can only be saved half a year after being recruited. The one year period is the most dangerous. As long as you get through it and pay attention later, it won't be a big deal. Forget it for others, masters like Terumi Mei will use the curse seal to their own advantage and gain opportunities to advance to the next level. "
"Then... Orochimaru's plan is going to go wrong?"
"It's okay. The curse seal is there anyway. As long as Terumi Mei is too weak to suppress the curse seal, sooner or later there will be a comeback. This thing is like a poisonous snake peeking behind you all the time. Don't expose your weakness. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.”
Terumi Mei is not an ordinary person. Once she passes through the bridge of cursed seal chakra, deconstructs the secrets of natural energy and sage chakra, and understands the sage mode practice method on her own, it will be extraordinary.
There are already two types of blood succession limited blessings, Melting Escape and Boiling Escape, and supplemented by immortal magic, it will greatly improve the plight of the Hidden Mist Village's lack of top experts.
With one more "Big Buddha" in Kirigakure Village, the endless number of defecting Mist ninjas in the future will also think carefully about it.
"But, in this way, Kirigakure Village has become stronger. Isn't it not good for us in the Fire Country?"
"Is this... something we need to consider? Let the Leaf Village have a headache."
Gu Shan Bu Shui said nonchalantly,
"The most severely affected village is Yunyin Village. Our Gushan family has never been concerned about the strength of a certain ninja village, but the rise and fall of ninjas as a group."
"I understand the secularization of ninjas and the rise of competitive professions."
The former is what Gushan Bushui is doing, and the latter places his hope on the group of "fighters" that is still booming.
In the second half of this year, a new-year league competition system will be trialled. Based on martial arts venues in various places, areas will be divided into round-robin tournaments. The top players in each area will directly advance to the "King of Fighting" semi-finals, and compete with specially invited famous masters. Taiwan athletics.
Combining the "draft" nature of the divisional competition with the official fighter competition was decided after Gushan Bushui solicited opinions from many parties and after careful consideration.
The annual "King of Fighting" main event, including the semi-finals and auditions, only lasts for two or three months. Its influence is limited to Yuqi Island and nearby enthusiasts and related interest groups, far away from the people whose influence has declined. Movement, and quite a distance.
The group of "fighters" is essentially not directly responsible for the official assessment of force, nor does it undertake the task of defending the country. In fact, it is the overflow of extraordinary power outside the ninja group.
It is not tolerated by orthodox ninjas, and is naturally repelled by the ninja village system.
If you want these scattered so-called "fighters" to check and balance the ninja, you can't do it in a year or two. More than ten years have passed, and now they can only be active in areas that the ninja forces cannot touch with the support of the Gushan family. .
“There’s a long way to go.”
Chai Zhou, who accepted the order, was impressed, then changed the subject and said,
"As for Miss Xianglin, she will be in fourth grade soon. Last time, she asked Kyo to go to Konoha Village..."
"this is not OK."
Gu Shan Bu Shui said with some regret,
"I mentioned it to several colleagues in the Leaf Village, but they were not favored."
After a pause, Gushan Bushui continued,
"What the third generation old man means is that Kurama Yakumo and Kaoru are together, and the third person is to be determined. In fact, in my opinion, this person must be directly selected by the ANBU or a direct descendant of the 'root' organization. The Kurama family and I have close contacts, if the third person They asked our Gusugi clan to arrange it, so is this team a ninja from the Leaf Village or from the Gusugi clan?"
The scheduled teacher Yuhihi Kurenai still has a good impression of Fusugi Bosui. Without a reliable spy, Konoha Village would have lost control.
"Yeah, that's a pity."
I had originally hoped that the children at home would get closer to the host family, but that was probably out of the question.
"It's okay now, Inaba Academy also needs a few 'supporters'. Let him and Kasumi go to Inaba Academy. If a teacher from Konoha Village who is a supporting teacher recommends entering Konoha Ninja School for further study, we won't stop him. We don't want to interfere too much. . Xianglin is my child, so she has enough autonomy. Other children should save more face for Konoha Village."
It is impossible to say that the Sandaime Hiruzen Sarutobi still treats each other with sincerity, allowing those talented children to truly identify with the spirit of Konoha and become a part of it.
"Young Master has thought carefully, but I was too anxious."
"It doesn't matter. I wish I could get closer to the Leaf Village. Whether the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overpowers the east wind, I have to give it a try. In a real battle, the Konoha ninjas are more powerful. In the ideological competition, they no."
