On the night of genocide, I awakened the eternal Izanagi

...

Silence for a moment.

Master Yuan looked out the window with a gloomy expression.

On the originally calm lake, a line of unknown birds flew low, causing ripples.

After a moment, he shifted his gaze back to the table.

He picked up a cup of freshly brewed tea and took a sip.

The rich aroma gradually eased Master Yuan's slightly depressed mood.

After a while.

After adjusting his mentality, he turned his head again to look at Jing Wu, the head of the Intelligence Department of Kirigakure, who was still standing there, and then asked in a deep voice:

"Do you know who did it?"

"Reply to the elder, we are still investigating."

...

"Uh... um..."

Noticing the hesitant expression on Jing Wu's face, Master Yuan glared at him unhappily, and then said coldly:

"If you have something to say, just say it. It's time to hide it..."

Hearing this,

Jing Wu sighed slightly, and then slowly said:

"Grand Elder, this is the case..."

"When we went there, the scene had been destroyed and there was no trace left."

"As for the cause of death of Mizukage-sama..."

"Based on the traces left at the scene, it should be fatal damage caused by the explosion."

...

"Explosion?"

Hearing this, Yuanshi's old and turbid eyes suddenly burst into a strong light.

Then he slowly stood up and began to pace back and forth in the room.

"Yes, Grand Elder."

"And not far from Mizukage-sama, there are some traces of activities of the S-class rebel Biwa Juzo, who was once one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist."

"Huh?"

"Biwa Juzo?"

At this moment, Yuanshi's footsteps suddenly stopped.

He raised his head slightly and thought for a moment, then asked with some doubt:

"Shouldn't it be Uchiha Izumi? How is it related to that brat Juzo?"

Faced with the question, Jing Wu paused slightly.

Then he reached out and took out a document from the bag beside him and handed it to the master, and then said in a deep voice:

"According to the analysis of the remaining chakra extracted by the medical department."

"The explosion that caused the death of the Mizukage-sama was caused by the same person as the two explosions outside the village and near Liuli Island."

"So even though there are no witnesses, comprehensive analysis shows that there is a very high probability that the Konoha rebel Uchiha Izumi killed the Mizukage-sama."

"Although the body of Biwa Juzo has disappeared, through data comparison, he had fought with the Mizukage-sama before his death."

Hearing this.

The master sat back on the rattan chair with an expressionless face, and then picked up the teacup and took another sip.

Then he raised his head and looked at the intelligence chief of Kirigakure with a calm gaze, and said lightly:

"That is to say, after Yagura and Biwa Juzo fought, Uchiha Izumi took the opportunity to sneak attack and kill them both, right?"

...

"It can be confirmed almost, and the other party fought with another one after killing the Mizukage-sama."

"Because both sides are very strong, they caused great damage to the scene, making it impossible to extract more useful information."

...

Noticing the affirmative look on Jing Wu's face, Yuanshi fell into silence for a while.

...

To be honest, Jing Wu's contribution to the village over the years has been seen by himself.

Otherwise, he would not have helped him to this position against all odds.

Especially recently, no matter how outrageous his request was, he had no complaints.

He was very satisfied with this.

But he also knew in his heart that Jing Wu was actually under a lot of pressure for what he did for him.

In particular, some intelligence personnel who were responsible for monitoring the movements of the bloodline families were transferred from their posts.

This move really caused dissatisfaction among several village leaders.

After all, the "Blood Mist Village" policy of the previous Fourth Generation Mizukage Karuta Yagura did massacre many ninjas from the bloodline limit families.

Even the long-renowned Mizunotsuki family was not spared.

Therefore, during that period, the older senior officials in the village were in danger, fearing that they would be killed on the spot by the angry remnants of the bloodline families when they walked on the road that day.

Although these people were once the elites of Kirigakure, they are now old after all, and their energy and blood are declining, even worse than Chunin.

And these people themselves are in high positions, and there are still a lot of wealth and glory that they have not enjoyed. How could they be willing to die so worthlessly?

So when Jingwu transferred those intelligence personnel from their posts, they were panicked, because of the fear of death.

Although these people did not stir up trouble under their suppression,What a storm.

But once they knew that Karaguchi Yagura was dead, they would definitely do something to protect themselves.

…

Although the Fourth Mizukage was not in harmony with him in some aspects, he still wanted to keep the position of Mizukage after getting rid of the control of the Sharingan.

Therefore, he would let go of some of the old grudges and choose to cooperate with him.

He wanted to reshape his reputation through some public opinion influence, intending to continue his political life.

However, recently, the bloodline limit families headed by Mei Terumi began to gradually press.

These people are particularly influential among some new generations of Kirigakure ninjas.

They have even been able to change some decisions in the village through several Kirigakure elders who are inclined to the bloodline family.

These practices make me feel a little passive.

Therefore, during the period of the Fourth Mizukage's death, I must block the news and wait until I choose the right candidate to help the other party take the position.

In this way, my control over the Kirigakure Village can be continued.

In fact, to put it bluntly, as long as it is not Mei Terumi who represents the interests of the bloodline limit family who comes to power, it doesn't matter if anyone else comes to power.

After all, if there is a chance, the three-tailed beast still needs to be recovered.

At that time, a child will be selected as the Mizukage, and the tailed beast will be implanted in the other person's body.

This can not only meet the custom of the strong being the king in the village, but also regain control of the Jinchūriki in one's own hands.

That's all.

The master stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, a touch of shock and determination flashed in his eyes, and at the same time he secretly said in his heart:

"Since Yagura is dead, no matter what, we must not let those bloodline families take power."

"And this Uchiha Izumi, who can kill the fourth generation who is the three-tailed Jinchūriki, is really a bit unbelievable."

"Forget it, let this guy go there, no one in the village is his opponent at present."

"If we act rashly, the loss may be greater."

"The Hidden Mist cannot be tossed around anymore..."

Thinking of this,

The Master closed his eyes gently, and then waved to Jing Wu in front of him.

He indicated that the chat today was over and he could go back.

Seeing this scene.

Jing Wu did not dare to neglect it, and immediately stepped forward and bowed, indicating that he had understood the meaning of the Great Elder.

Although he was naturally shocked that Uchiha Izumi could kill the Fourth Mizukage.

But since even Master did not mention revenge for Mizukage, why should he do it?

Anyway, that Uchiha Izumi could kill the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, and no one in the village could match him.

Why should he humiliate himself again? It would be better to pretend that nothing happened and wait for the Great Elder to make the decision.

But then again, this Uchiha Izumi is a bit too strong, it's incredible...

...

After a while,

Jing Wu shook his head slightly, then slowly adjusted his posture to make himself look more trustworthy, and then said softly:

"Then, Great Elder, I'll go back first."

"Well, go ahead!"

...

On the other side.

Uchiha Izumi has recovered from the influence of the Phantom Body Technique.

Just as he was about to leave, a long-lost system prompt sound suddenly rang in his mind.

...
