Chapter 215: Preparing for Their Wedding
Shiba Kiyokawa knew very well from the beginning that Black Zetsu's Mayfly Technique could be almost everywhere.
When time dragged on for too long, he would not be able to keep his vest anyway.
When the other party was concentrating on his own script, he could barely predict Black Zetsu's behavior, but when the war was over, Black Zetsu was hiding in the dark and staring at him, his tolerance for error was too low.
So Shiba Kiyokawa decided to go all out and threw away his vest without any regrets when the war in this zone was about to end.
When he faked his death and left the stage, all the reputation and fame he had accumulated using this pseudonym in the previous half month was returned to Biwa Juzang!
At this point, he used his "death" to lift Biwa Juzang to a height that no one could reach!
On this day, the savior Biwa Juzo handsomely saved Wuyin from water and fire!
As for why we were in such a mess, it doesn't matter at this moment.
When the news reached Hei Zetsu's ears, his pitcher plant opened and closed, and his breathing became irregular.
"Assholes! This is a conspiracy! This is fake! They are in collusion! These despicable guys, I should have exposed them earlier!"
But now there was no point in him saying anything.
No one would believe him, even if he knew the truth.
On the one hand, Kirigakure, now standing on the edge of a cliff, desperately needs a hero;
On the other hand, the fact that the white monster had infiltrated Kirigakure had already been known to everyone in the past half month, and they had long lost their credibility.
Black Zetsu looked at Ah Fei, and his meaning was very clear: Use your clever little brain to think of a solution quickly.
But now, Ah Fei seems to have returned to his original state of slacking off.
"Ah, ah, it looks like we've been helping others the whole time."
Looking back, this is indeed the case - the cleansing of the Xiguashan pufferfish ghost a while ago ended up benefiting Biwa Juzo.
Most of the elite ninjas who were capable of competing with him were harmed by the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Demon.
The situation in Kirigakure is on the verge of collapse. At this time, a savior stands up, and his appeal is unparalleled!
After a few days, Kirigakure managed to regain its footing.
Especially Tendo Pain who came to support, but suddenly stopped acting after the death of Konoha Yaodao!
Konoha's several reckless attacks to end the war were intercepted by the team led by Tendo Pain.
Now the value of the Demon Sword has further increased - because before this, Pain had to defend against the Demon Sword alone!
When Konoha's attacking force was once again beaten to a pulp by the invincible Shinra Tensei, the surviving ninjas all sighed with regret.
"Oh, what a pity! How come Yaodao died?"
"If the demon sword is still there and continues to hold off the salamander, we might really be able to end the war."
"Only the Root Ninja followed the demon sword attack that day. The battle was so fierce, but the signal for help was not sent back. What do you think is going on?"
This was actually a misunderstanding of the Root Ninja. It was Shiba Kiyokawa himself who deliberately did not send a distress signal that day.
But who could have guessed that someone would want to die?
So naturally, the blame can only be put on the root.
"Damn the Root. They were almost disbanded, but why did this organization revive recently? Damn it!"
Back in the days when the Root was at its peak, few people in Konoha dared to comment on the Root so sharply.
It’s a pity that times have changed.
However, as time passed and it was the end of the year, the war along the coastal areas finally came to an end.
After stabilizing the front line and preventing the large-scale collapse of Kirigakure, Biwa Juzo soon took the initiative to negotiate with Konoha.
This was also instructed by Shiba Kiyokawa.
It is impossible for Payne to be kidnapped on the southern coast forever. At the same time, when the time is right, Biwa Juzo should go back to take over the village.
At this point, it is a foregone conclusion that Biwa Juzo will take over as the Fourth Mizukage after his return. When he has complete control of the village, he will be able to provide considerable feedback to the Akatsuki organization.
And this also involves the deal between Shiba Kiyokawa and Orochimaru.
As the news of the negotiations spread, the war that had been boiling for more than half a month gradually cooled down.
This time, Amaterasu Mei finally had the chance to find Biwa Juuzou, and she asked him with a complicated expression.
"What did the Akatsuki organization promise you? To make you follow their orders so obediently?"
After going through so much, Mei Terumi is finally no longer the naive and ignorant girl she used to be.
If everything had happened before, she would most likely have fought Biwa Juzo desperately at this time. She would never allow such behavior of betraying the village and working for other organizations!
However, after experiencing the previous battle and tasting the bitter fruit of almost killing all her subordinates because of her naivety, Mei Terumi quickly matured.
She now understands: sometimes naive efforts can change nothing, but on the contrary, despicable calculations may really overturn the status quo.
It was precisely because the injury suffered by the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon was too unforgettable that Mei Terumi was successfully persuaded by Biwa Juzo afterwards.
In her opinion, no matter what the future of the village will be, it will at least be better than falling into the hands of someone like the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost.
But she still wanted to hear Biwa Juzo's reasons.
At that moment, Biwa Juzang lowered his head, and in a moment of silence, he suddenly remembered many things that happened a few months ago.
He used to be a very pure ninja, and he thought that the problems of the village were all caused by war, hatred, the enemy was too strong, or his own ninjas were not working hard enough.
Until that day, Shiba Kiyokawa, who completely crushed him in strength, also showed a level of insight and wisdom that was beyond his reach.
"Akatsuki, they promised me a different world and a brand new future!"
Seeing Mei Terumi's expression of complete disbelief, Biwa Juuzou smiled and did not give any further explanation. Instead, he chose to change his statement to one that was relatively easier to understand.
"They promised to rid the village of the blood mist. In addition, they promised to help with Sunagakure's troubles."
"Sagakure?" Mei Terumi then remembered: Kirigakure had declared war on more than just Konoha in this Ninja World War.
They also had many battles with their old rival Sunagakure further south.
However, the intensity of the war in that war zone was much smaller than that in the Land of Fire. It could even be said to be the most inconspicuous war zone in the entire Ninja World War.
But no matter what, Sand Village and Kirigakure are old enemies.
Only then did Mei Terumi realize: Now that Kirigakure is in such a state, even if they can make peace with the weak Konoha high-level officials, how should Sunagakure respond?
"The Akatsuki of Rain Country didn't declare war on Sunagakure, right? Why can he promise to help us solve Sunagakure's problems?"
Biwa Juuzou shrugged and answered frankly, "I don't know."
"Then you are still so sure?"
"In short, believe it first, don't question it. Just like not long ago I didn't believe they could make me the Mizukage, but what about now?"
At that moment, Mei Terumi was speechless.
Yes, if it were a month ago, if someone told her that Biwa Juuzou, who had defected from the village, could come back and become the Mizukage, would she believe it?
I'm afraid I'll just think the person who said this is hysterical.
But now, the facts are laid before our eyes in an irrefutable manner!
"Akatsuki organization... is it really that capable? What kind of people are they?"
At this moment, the young Mei Terumi couldn't help but feel extremely curious about Akatsuki in the distance.
