"Although it's embarrassing to say it, now I can only tell you two about Kirigakure's situation."
"Kirigakure is called the 'Blood Mist Village' by the outside world. The reason is due to the cruel policies of the Fourth Generation."
"We thought so before, but about a year ago, we discovered that the fourth generation was controlled by illusion!"
"In other words, the person who caused the Kirigakure tragedy was the person behind the scenes who controlled the Fourth Generation!"
Terumi Yuya explained with an ugly face, anger in his eyes.
I originally thought it was just an internal issue, but I didn't expect it to be because someone controlled their fourth generation Mizukage.
But this matter cannot be made public, and the information can only be passed on to some high-level officials.
Uchiha Makoto's expression moved slightly. According to Terumi Yuya, it seems that Obito lost control of the Fourth Mizukage after the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
But the current situation may have undergone some changes that he doesn't know about.
After all, the Fourth Mizukage appears very rarely in the original work, and Uchiha Makoto only knows that he is the perfect jinchūriki of the Three-Tails.
Hearing Terumi Yuya's explanation, Namikaze Minato was shocked, frowned, and then looked at Uchiha Makoto.
Namikaze Minato thought of an astonishing possibility and said solemnly:
"Is it that person..."
Uchiha Makoto nodded.
"Do you two know something?" In response to the reactions of Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Makoto, Genshi said solemnly:
"Actually, we have also speculated that the genjutsu that can control the Fourth Mizukage, who is a perfect Jinchuuriki, is actually only a few possibilities..."
Master Yuan did not continue speaking, but looked at Uchiha Makoto.
Uchiha Makoto continued: "Mangekyo Sharingan! Only the powerful Mangekyo Genjutsu can control a person for several years or even ten years."
"In other words, there is always someone who has been 'ruling' Kirigakure instead of the Yondaime-sama?!
And it started several years ago, more than ten years ago?
Can the Mangekyō Sharingan's genjutsu achieve this level? "
Terumi Mei looked in disbelief.
"That's true. As long as you reinforce your illusions regularly, it will be difficult to be discovered!
However, if you want to control the four generations of Mizukage and Jinchuriki at the same time, the ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan cannot do it.
It requires more powerful eye power, and there is only one person in the history of Uchiha who can use this kind of eye power!
Uchiha Madara! "
Uchiha Makoto explained, saying a name that made people blush.
"Uchiha Madara?!"
"How can it be?!"
"He was not given by the First Hokage of Konoha..."
According to Uchiha Makoto's idea, although he did not understand the details of this part of the original work, judging from the time, Madara should have started the layout more than ten years ago.
He first controlled the Fourth Mizukage, and then after his death, Obito only needed to maintain it based on the genjutsu left by Madara.
Otherwise, Obito's age would not match. Obito "died" in the Battle of Kannabi in the 47th year of Konoha.
Before that, only Madara could control the fourth generation Mizukage.
The exposure of the Fourth Mizukage's control should also be related to Obito being seriously injured and dying during the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
Otherwise, why hadn't it been discovered before?
"Makoto is right! It should be Uchiha Madara!"
Namikaze Minato's face turned pale, and there was a hint of anger in his voice.
"What is going on? Please tell me, Your Excellency the Fourth Generation!"
Genshi suppressed the shock in his heart and looked at Namikaze Minato with burning eyes.
Namikaze Minato nodded and said: "You should know what happened in Konoha the year before last!
October 10th was the day my wife Kushina gave birth.
When a jinchuriki gives birth, that's when the seal is at its weakest.
That day, a masked man claiming to be Madara Uchiha attacked us and released the Kyuubi!
If it weren't for Jiraiya-sama, the Third Generation, and Makoto's help, I might have died trying to stop the Kyuubi! "
"Hmph! What a unique trick from Zhu Bajie——"
Hearing Minato Namikaze's explanation, the Nine-Tails in Uchiha Makoto snorted, Minato Namikaze was completely 'confusing right and wrong'.
Not to mention being besieged, Kushina's King Kong Blockade and Namikaze Minato Sealing Technique alone would not be enough.
It was clear that Kushina had been pulled out of the tailed beast, her life force was exhausted, and Namikaze Minato didn't want to live anymore.
Even before death, I wanted to take half of it with me, but now the evildoer complained first and beat him up.
If it weren't for Namikaze Minato, Kyuubi would have gone into hiding in the mountains and forests to live a free life.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Makoto's smiling face appeared in Kyuubi's heart for no reason.
Life now is just so-so, and I can get by.
Hearing Kyuubi's dissatisfied complaints, Uchiha Makoto wanted to laugh a little, but in this atmosphere, he had to remain serious.
"It turns out there is such an inside story. According to what the Yondaime-sama said, you were attacked in October of the year before last. It happened to be the time when we discovered that Mizukage-sama was controlled by genjutsu..."
Terumi Yuya looked like he suddenly realized it, and the time was basically the same.
"What happened next?! Where did the man who claimed to be Uchiha Madara go?" Genshi continued.
Namikaze Minato explained: "He was severely injured by Jiraiya-sensei and I.
That kind of injury would definitely kill an ordinary ninja!
But if that person is really Uchiha Madara, then I speculate that he may still be alive. "
"But if it is really Uchiha Madara, with his strength, does he need to hide his head and show his tail like this?"
Genshi said in confusion that he was from the same era as the first Hokage and Uchiha Madara.
Although he has never seen Uchiha Madara take action with his own eyes, he also knows the deeds of Konoha's two heroes who suppressed the ninja world.
The tailed beast that they regarded as a disaster was as easy to deal with as a kitten in front of those two people.
"This is also what we are puzzled about, but I speculate that it may be that Uchiha Madara suffered irrecoverable injuries while fighting the First Hokage.
Although he survived in the end, his strength was not what it used to be.
Or maybe someone is using Madara Uchiha's name to cause trouble, but this possibility is low.
Tracing the history of the Uchiha clan, there are only a handful of people who have opened the Mangekyō Sharingan in recent decades.
It is hard to imagine that someone, like Uchiha Madara, has survived from the end of the Warring States Period to the present. "
Namikaze Minato stated both possibilities they had deduced.
Uchiha Makoto's heart moved, and he had to say that the general direction Namikaze Minato guessed was correct.
It's just that he doesn't have the advantage of being a prophet like Uchiha Makoto in part of the plot.
The direction is right, but the details are wrong.
Without Uchiha Makoto, the current trajectory would be different.
"If you explain it this way, it basically makes sense."
Although Genshi still felt a little unreal, he basically believed Namikaze Minato's speculation.
As long as that man is still alive, even if he doesn't have the power he once had, he can still control the tailed beast.
After all, Konoha had Namikaze Minato, Jiraiya, and the Third Hokage, three strong men who stood at the top of the ninja world, but they still allowed the opponent to successfully release the Nine-Tails.
Thinking about it this way, it is not impossible for the fourth Mizukage to be controlled by genjutsu for more than ten years.
Genshi has watched Yagura grow up, so he naturally understands Yagura's character.
He is not the kind of cruel and violent person. What Yagura has done over the years is completely different from his previous personality.
Now it seems that the culprit is Uchiha Madara.
"Genshi-sama, since the Fourth Mizukage-sama of your village has escaped the control of genjutsu, and now Kirigakure has formed an alliance with Konoha.
So it should have been with the consent of the Fourth Mizukage-sama in the first place, so why do you want to subdue the Fourth Mizukage-sama now?
Was his insanity a recent occurrence, or was it intermittent? "
Uchiha Makoto looked puzzled.
I have only heard of illusions controlling people, but I have never heard of people going insane after dispelling illusions.
His kaleidoscope illusion technique currently cannot achieve this effect.
Could it be that the Fourth Mizukage knew what he had done during his tenure, so he couldn't stand the excitement and went crazy?
Regarding Uchiha Makoto’s doubts, Terumi Yuya explained:
"The fourth generation's mental disorder is a recent event, but it is indeed intermittent.
For nearly a year after dispelling the genjutsu, the Yondaime-sama remained mentally healthy, although he was always weak.
However, in the past three months, after the Yondaime-sama recovered, he often lost his mind intermittently. "
"Actually, I'm ashamed to say that in the half month before you all came to Kirigakure, the fourth generation had repeated relapses.
He even ordered an ambush to be set up in the village to ambush everyone.
Naturally, the village's senior officials were strongly opposed to this.
Just the day before yesterday, the fourth generation briefly regained his sanity.
We found that every time the fourth generation recovered from a mental disorder, he would forget what happened before.
Therefore, everyone did not take what happened before seriously. "
Master Yuan sighed.
After finally discovering the abnormality of the Fourth Mizukage, less than a year later, another problem occurred.
Kirigakure originally had several elders, but they were all killed by the Fourth Mizukage.
The new generation in the village has been killing each other since the genin exams, and naturally they don't have a strong sense of belonging to the village.
Geniuses rarely have a good growth environment.
And every major bloodstained family was persecuted.
The more serious thing is that after the recovery of the fourth generation, many policies were abandoned, giving the people in the village hope.
After the fourth generation went insane again, he returned to the policy of the "Blood Mist" period.
Forget it if there is no hope. This behavior of immediately extinguishing hope after seeing it is, in the eyes of many ninjas, the ridicule and fooling of the fourth generation.
In the past two months alone, there have been seven or eight assassinations.
But now in Kirigakure Village, the strongest person is the fourth generation, and the assassins are always trying to escape.
This is undoubtedly adding insult to injury for Kirigakure.
Uchiha Makoto was shocked when he heard Yuanshi's explanation.
If Kirigakure attacked them secretly, the nature of the matter would be completely different.
The genin they brought with them might not survive.
But with the fighting power of Uchiha Makoto and Namikaze Minato, if they really wanted to fight, Kirigakure would not be able to stop them.
When Uchiha Makoto raised his head, he met Terumi Mei's fearful eyes.
"But...if we respond to your request and take action against the Fourth Mizukage-sama, I'm afraid..."
Namikaze Minato was a little hesitant. If this matter was not handled well, it would lead to international disputes and even war, so he had no choice but to be careless.
“We also know that this task is difficult and even thankless.
But it is shameful to say that no one in the village today can subdue the crazy fourth generation.
Among the trustworthy people, we can only rely on Mr. Hokage, who is good at sealing, and Mr. Makoto, the strongest person in the Uchiha clan today! "
Master Yuan bowed again.
Namikaze Minato hurried forward, helped Genshi up, and said:
“It’s not that we can’t do it, but it’s hard to control this matter properly.
The Fourth Mizukage-dono is also a well-known strong man in the ninja world and a perfect Jinchuuriki.
If you don't want to cause too much commotion, you must resolve it quickly.
If Makoto and I join forces, we will definitely be able to defeat the Fourth Mizukage, but there may be no way to hold back. "
Uchiha Makoto was slightly taken aback. Last time he saw Namikaze Minato banning Yu Bokuto so easily, he didn't expect him to be so conservative in his words this time.
Looking at Uchiha Makoto's reaction, Namikaze Minato explained:
"The fourth generation master's strength and control over the power of the tailed beasts are definitely not comparable to Yukito's.
My Four Elements Seal and Five Elements Seal can only temporarily seal the jinchuriki's chakra.
And the seal must be reinforced at regular intervals.
The Bagua seal cannot be superimposed with other tailed beast seals.
Even if we subdue the Fourth Mizukage, he will still break through the seal once we leave. "
Namikaze Minato either doesn't do it, or he does it to perfection. He always considers the problem more comprehensively.
Uchiha Makoto is now only proficient in the four-element seal, but he doesn't understand the five-element seal yet, and he doesn't know that there is a requirement to reinforce the seal frequently.
Naturally, Namikaze Minato cannot stay in Kirigakure Village to strengthen the seal from time to time.
...
For Uchiha Makoto, he was naturally willing to help.
After all, the relationship with Kirigakure is very important.
Of course, it’s because of Terumi Mei.
The benefits of this are also obvious.
Since fighting, it is normal to accidentally obtain some chakra from the three tails.
If you accidentally get a little more chakra, there is nothing wrong with it.
As long as the Fourth Mizukage is not killed, it will be fine.
Of course, the decision on this matter rests with Namikaze Minato.
Uchiha Makoto couldn't make a decision yet.
If he were to take action, the Fourth Mizukage would most likely have to die on the spot.
"So, your Hokage has agreed?" Master Yuan said solemnly.
Namikaze Minato thought about it again and again, nodded and said: "Since Konoha and Kirigakure are allies, we are naturally willing to help if the allies request it.
But are you prepared for the consequences of this incident? "
No matter how small the noise of the battle was, and Uchiha Makoto joined forces with him, Namikaze Minato could not guarantee that he would not be discovered.
After all, he was fighting the perfect Jinchuuriki of the Three-Tails.
If it were a single three-tailed one, Namikaze Minato would have absolute confidence in a quick victory.
It's just that if you add jinchūriki and tailed beasts, the improvement in strength is not as simple as 1+1=2.
Especially the strength of the Fourth Mizukage itself cannot be underestimated.
The last time Yukito was able to be sealed instantly was because the opponent was careless. Namikaze Minato struck instantly, taking him by surprise and catching him off guard, and he succeeded with one blow.
Compared with the fourth generation Mizukage who has rich fighting experience, I am afraid it will not be so easy to succeed.
The most important thing is that there is no way to do it quietly.
There was too much movement, and it was discovered by Kirigakure's ninjas, and it would be impossible to explain it at that time.
Judging from the appearance of Genshi and Terumi Yuya, it doesn't look like the result of a joint discussion between the top management.
After all, letting people from other villages deal with one's own shadow is of a different nature.
Seeing that Namikaze Minato was still hesitant, Genshi immediately explained.
"You two are actually willing to help with this, so I will tell you the inside story.
Please don’t worry, this matter was actually the fourth generation’s own decision! "
