Infinite Simulation: From Konoha To Moon

Chapter 46: The Seven Ninja of the Hidden Mist

When they returned, the four of them rented a boat.

As per Li Xiang's request, they all disguised themselves.

They wore white kimonos, looking extremely elegant.

Chang Juro had the appearance of someone who had never seen the world before, and he stole glances several times.

After arriving in Kirigakure, the four of them avoided attention and sneaked into Terumi Mei's house.

The main reason was to prevent Zabuza and Haku from being detected by Obito, so as to avoid any other complications.

When Terumi Mei opened the door and saw the four of them, her gaze lingered on Li Xiang.

She was surprised that Zabuza had been convinced in just a few days.

Including the process, the conversation probably didn't exceed two or three hours.

This kind of efficiency was astonishing.

It was also the first time she truly understood the saying "words are more powerful than fists."

"Zabuza, long time no see."

Terumi Mei smiled faintly, facing Zabuza's expression that kept people at a distance, she didn't lose her momentum.

Zabuza nodded and said, "You need to understand, I came back to compete for the position of Mizukage."

Straightforward.

Just like his decapitation sword.

Big, direct, and hard.

Terumi Mei was slightly taken aback by his straightforwardness.

But this kind of quick attack was refreshing.

She liked talking to people like him.

Terumi Mei glanced at Li Xiang and probably guessed what he had said to persuade Zabuza to come back.

She didn't blame him in her heart, but instead felt that Li Xiang was bold, intelligent, and knew how to hit the nail on the head.

Without a doubt, he was a good candidate for Mizukage.

As for Zabuza, he didn't have the strength to suppress everything, and his personality was not suitable for Mizukage, only suitable for charging into battle.

"The Mizukage should be someone capable."

Terumi Mei said without concern, "If you have the ability, I will be your assistant."

Zabuza fell silent for two seconds. He knew that in their first encounter, he had been completely defeated in terms of mentality.

Not an ordinary woman.

When he was in Kirigakure, although he knew of Terumi Mei's reputation, they didn't have much interaction.

Because in his opinion, the only correct answer was the sword in his hand, not compromising.

Zabuza thought of Li Xiang's soul-searching yesterday.

He admitted that he was indeed not prepared to become Mizukage.

"This is Bai, right?"

Terumi Mei looked him up and down, a beautiful young man.

And according to her investigation, Bai was undoubtedly a super genius.

He possessed the rare bloodline limit of Ice Release in Kirigakure and was only eight years old.

"Terumi Mei-sama."

Bai responded.

"Now that you've come back, Kirigakure will be your new home."

Terumi Mei reached out her hand and said, "And like you, your past won't happen again."

A mist appeared in the palm of her hand.

A sizzling sound.

The strong corrosiveness caused the air to melt.

Bai's body trembled.

This was a bloodline limit!

Instantly, his gaze towards Terumi Mei softened.

He thought, she's a good person.

Zabuza pursed his lips.

This woman is really good at stirring up trouble!

Clearly, I was the one who came first.

Although he wasn't worried about Bai betraying them, it made him seem incompetent, didn't it?

"When do we start?"

Zabuza changed the topic.

"In a few days. With your participation, we already have a chance of winning."

Terumi Mei explained her plan, "Ao will use the Byakugan to break Mizukage-sama's control, and then he will assist us."

Li Xiang raised an eyebrow.

He had forgotten about Yagura, the jinchuriki.

Although it sounded ridiculous that the Byakugan could break the Mangekyo Sharingan's genjutsu, that was how it was in the original story.

If there was a betrayal by the jinchuriki, there shouldn't be a problem.

Li Xiang blinked his eyes. Since Obito was leaving, it was only right to give him a small gift, both emotionally and logically.

"Okay."

"There's nothing more to say."

"Chang Juro, arrange accommodations for them."

Terumi Mei ordered.

Chang Juro immediately left with Zangetsu and Byakuya, leaving only Li Xiang behind.

"You really are a disciple who constantly surprises people."

With no outsiders present, Terumi Mei seemed much more casual.

She stretched lazily and said, "I want to give you a new position, Mizukage's advisor, how about it?"

"Not really."

Li Xiang thought to himself, "I'm only seven years old, and I'm an undercover agent."

"I would rather establish a hospital in Kirigakure."

"A hospital will definitely be established."

Terumi Mei frowned and said, "But it would be a waste of your abilities to be stuck in a hospital."

"Let's talk about it later, I'm still a child."

Li Xiang turned to Zangetsu and said, "I convinced Zangetsu to compete for Mizukage, is that okay?"

"It's not a big deal."

Terumi Mei smiled and said, "If he wants to be Mizukage, he has to pass my test first, but I doubt he has the ability."

"Haki, show yourself!"

Li Xiang raised his thumb and said.

"You talk too much."

Terumi Mei waved her hand and said, "Since you have the Summoning Scroll, find the other swords and see who can inherit them."

"I have a candidate, Hozuki Juzo."

Li Xiang explained, "Zangetsu's decapitation sword was stolen from him, but he didn't die."

Terumi Mei's eyes lit up involuntarily.

This was undoubtedly good news.

Even though Hozuki Juzo was weak, he was still a Jōnin, and for the current Kirigakure, he would definitely be a huge help.

"Where is he now?"

"Shimotsuki Island."

Li Xiang casually mentioned a place, "Not far from Kirigakure, let me go this time."

Terumi Mei undoubtedly had her reasons.

Zangetsu had performed excellently in his mission.

There was no reason to change personnel.

After Li Xiang left, he went to the same izakaya as last time.

"Greetings, sir."

Hozuki Juzo's attitude remained the same.

Li Xiang nodded slightly and was about to speak when he heard him ask, "Because you used the highest command, I reported it to headquarters, and they asked me a question. What is your finger ring code?"

"Biluo."

Li Xiang had anticipated this.

Hozuki Juzo's body trembled, and without further questioning, he said, "What can I do for you this time?"

Li Xiang didn't speak, but took out the scroll and started pouring out the blades.

There were only three.

Dull Blade: Dougeki, Exploding Blade: Haimatsu, Long Blade: Housen.

"Choose one."

Li Xiang tried summoning the other four, but it didn't work.

Probably because they already had owners and couldn't be summoned.

Otherwise, Higetsu Suigetsu wouldn't have been running around collecting ninja swords.

"Why isn't there the Decapitation Sword?"

Hozuki Juzo couldn't help but ask.

"It's in Zangetsu's hands. If you want to rejoin the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, you'll have to choose another one."

"Are you saying...?"

Hozuki Juzo was somewhat surprised.

He thought he would never return to Kirigakure in his lifetime.

"Kirigakure is about to undergo a huge change. If you become one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, it will be more advantageous for Tendou."

"I see."

Hozuki Juzo immediately understood Li Xiang's meaning.

Tendou had always wanted to infiltrate the upper echelons of Kirigakure, but it was impossible as long as the Mizukage was under control.

Now that the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were being rebuilt, it was a perfect opportunity.

He just didn't know who this person was, who knew such information.

Hozuki Juzo picked up the Exploding Blade: Haimatsu.

This blade was similar in size to the Decapitation Sword, so it suited him.
