In Naruto, people fall to the ground and die

The death of the Fourth Mizukage was no less than an earthquake for the entire Kirigakure Village.

Especially before his death, he turned into a tailed beast and lost control, wreaking havoc in the village for a while, and stabbed the already poor Kirigakure Village again.

For a while, the whole village was in chaos.

Of course.

These things have nothing to do with Scorpion for the time being. He is multitasking and studying the harvest this time. In addition to the tail of the three-tailed beast, there is an additional harvest, that is, the beheading sword.

Scorpion is very interested in the seven ninja swords of the Kirigakure Village.

Because the functions of these ninja swords are extremely strange and powerful.

Even the beheading sword that looks like a waste is a top-quality material in Scorpion's eyes.

It can absorb the iron in the blood to repair itself. In addition, it can also use the absorbed blood to restore the physical strength of the person holding the sword, which is the most exaggerated.

Because the so-called recovery of physical strength is to restore the energy consumed by oneself, that is, the energy in the cells.

This is very similar to Samehada.

It's just that Samehada is more direct and can directly swallow chakra and transfer it to the person holding the sword, eliminating the process of self-refining.

Three days passed in a flash.

On this day.

Mei Terumi pushed open the door to the yard where Scorpion was, still wearing her aqua blue dress, the hem of her skirt fluttering, highlighting her tall and proud figure. She walked in with her long white legs, her cold eyes showing some fatigue, and it was obvious that she had not rested well in the past few days.

As soon as she entered the yard, she saw Kimimaro sitting cross-legged in the corridor to refine chakra. Kimimaro also noticed the other party's arrival, but he did not do anything extreme. He slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Mei Terumi, and then closed his eyes again.

"This little brat is almost exactly like your puppet, without any unnecessary expression."

Terumi Mei looked at Kimimaro, and then her eyes fell on Scorpion who was also sitting cross-legged beside her, and said unhappily

"How is it?"

Scorpion asked softly.

"The old guy agreed to meet you, but I'm curious, how do you want to convince him?"

Mei Terumi looked at Scorpion with some suspicion and asked tentatively.

If she didn't know Scorpion's record in Konoha and the sincerity he showed during this period, she would even suspect that he was joking with her.

"You'll know when we meet."

Scorpion got the answer he wanted, slowly stood up, gently patted the non-existent dust on his clothes, and responded softly:

"Keeping you in suspense~"

Mei Terumi rolled her eyes at Scorpion, then her delicate face turned slightly serious and warned:"If you have other ideas, I advise you to give them up as soon as possible, otherwise your puppet will be torn into pieces."

"If I really had other thoughts, do you think I would stay in your house for so long and waste my time?"

Scorpion responded lightly.

That's right.

Scorpion has been living in Terumi Mei's house these days. This was Terumi Mei's own request. She said it was to make it easier to keep an eye on him and prevent him from causing trouble.

This was the condition for her to help him connect with the top leaders of the Hidden Mist Village.

The excuse was ridiculous.

Scorpion even thought that she was interested in this puppet of his. After instructing Kimimaro to continue practicing, Scorpion and Terumi Mei got up and left the yard and walked out of the house.

At the door, Qing had been waiting for a long time.

Scorpion looked at him and nodded slightly as a greeting, and then continued to chat with Terumi Mei:"Has the Fifth Mizukage been elected?"

"No, those old guys are arguing, so there won't be an election soon."

Mei Terumi didn't hide it, as it was not a secret, so she said directly without hesitation.

""Are you sure?"

Scorpion asked softly.

Mei Terumi glanced at Scorpion with her beautiful eyes and said softly,"About 80 to 90 percent. The main reason is that there are not many competitors. Those who have been able to compete with me for the position in recent years have either died or defected. The remaining people can't compete with me."

Although he could still speak confidently, his voice sounded a little low.

"Congratulations, future Mizukage-sama."

Scorpion complimented

"I think you are mocking me?"

Terumi Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, snorted coldly, and said

"If you become the Mizukage, how do you plan to change the current situation in the Hidden Mist Village?"

Scorpion shook his head slightly, ignored Mei Terumi's unreasonable behavior, continued to take the initiative to speak, and asked.

Qing also frowned when he heard it, and looked at Scorpion, not understanding what Scorpion meant by saying these words.

Mei Terumi didn't understand either, but she still answered Scorpion's question:"Rest and recuperate, the Hidden Mist Village can't stand it anymore, I will try my best to make it return to its former state."

"It's a very realistic idea, but a little naive. If there is a war that involves the Hidden Mist Village, what will you do? Can you guarantee that other ninja villages will sit back and watch the Hidden Mist Village recover? Even if you rely on the geographical location of the Hidden Mist Village to block the news, how long can you block it? It's impossible to be without contact with the outside world for a lifetime, right?"

Scorpion analyzed softly.

How do you know?!

Mei Terumi and Qing's faces changed slightly.

After all, the most talked about thing in the high-level meetings in recent days is the future development and future of the Hidden Mist Village.

The core idea is to maintain the current state, continue to block the entire Hidden Mist Village, and cut off all contact with the outside world.

Delay the news from being known to the outside world as much as possible.

Relying on the unique terrain of the Land of Water, recuperate and rest for five to ten years, and wait for the younger generation to grow up.

Scorpion knew from the expressions of the two that he was right.

In the original work, the Hidden Mist Village was in a state of seclusion, which lasted until the Fourth Shinobi World War, when Mei Terumi officially appeared.

Before that, the most seen were the rebel ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village.

"I may be able to help you change some of your ideas and thoughts."

Scorpion's mouth seemed to have a faint arc, and he said softly.

This is also the real purpose of his coming to the Hidden Mist Village.

Compared with control, he prefers cooperation and transactions.

Because he can't control all the people in a village, but he can use interests to drive all the people in the village to serve him.

Terumi Mei frowned and stared at Scorpion's expressionless and cold puppet face, somewhat puzzled as to what Scorpion wanted to do.
