Sixteen Years Old, The Fourth Generation of Mizukage

Because his companion was unconscious and he was injured, Kakashi Hatake did not pursue the departing Uchiha Shisui. Instead, he sent out a summons signal and summoned the other two who were in the nearby area. ANBU members were summoned.

Seeing Kakashi Hatake's red and blistered skin, and his expression that looked particularly heavy and painful every time he breathed, the medical ninjas in the team hurried forward and started emergency treatment for him, while the ANBU team leader He walked to the unconscious ANBU and leaned down to check on his condition.

"How's the situation with [Dou], Captain?"

After feeling that the burning pain in his throat was not so severe, Hatake Kakashi spoke and asked his team leader in a hoarse voice.

"I only suffered some superficial injuries, and there may be some vibrations in the internal organs, but the injuries are not serious. I should wake up after a little rest..." The ANBU captain made a reassuring gesture, indicating that the two people being treated should not go too far. Worried, he immediately asked:

"But, [Bing], what's the matter with your injuries? It seems that the injuries suffered by [Dou] were not caused by an enemy at all..."

"I don't know who the enemy [Dou] encountered, but when I came over, I saw a figure with black wings and a third arm standing next to [Dou], holding a kunai and seemed to be... It looked like I was going to attack him, so I sneak-attacked the guy from behind, and then used my water escape to fight with his fire escape, and then he ran away.

Judging from the forehead protector, he should be a ninja from the Kirigakure Village, but the clothes on his body are of a type I have never seen before. "

Kakashi Hatake stated what he saw calmly and objectively, trying not to let his personal emotions affect the captain's judgment of the situation. When the ANBU captain heard the word Kirigakure, his brows furrowed very obviously. got up.

"Are you sure it's Kirigakure's ninja, [Bing]?"

"Yes, I used the Sharingan to carefully observe his forehead protector, and I am very sure that it is the pattern of Kirigakure Village... He also has a psychic white snake beside him. If the information in the village is not wrong, It is basically certain that he is the confidant of the Fourth Mizukage Kaguya Rei, because Kirigakure is the only one who has mastered the ability to make a psychic contract with snakes."

Kakashi's answer made the ANBU captain frown even more tightly. He turned his head and looked at his companion who was using palm senjutsu to help Hatake Kakashi treat the burns on his skin. He sighed and said:

"[Zeer], come here and wake up [Dou] first. He should be the first person to come into contact with the enemy. The information provided by [Bing] is a bit tricky. I must have more information before I can Make further judgments."

"knew."

Putting away the palm sensibility he was releasing, the medical ANBU code-named "Zhe" put a roll of bandages and a bottle of medicine into Hatake Kakashi's hands, and then appeared in the unconscious body in a flash. [Dou] was beside him, using his own chakra to wake him up from his deep coma.

"Fight? Fight? Open your eyes, I am a soldier..."

"This is where?"

[Dou] slowly opened his eyes and asked with confusion to [Zhe] who was calling him the ANBU code name.

"This is a forest across the border between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Swamp. This is the place where we dispersed to search for information." [The Author] patiently argued with [Dou] who had not yet fully woken up. While communicating, "You seem to have been attacked by an enemy just now. Do you still remember what the enemy looks like, [Dou]?"

"The enemy...attacked?" [Dou]'s eyes slowly opened wide, and everything he saw before he fainted began to appear in his mind, "I, I seem to remember..."

"Remember what?" the captain codenamed [Lin] asked eagerly.

"I remember, I remember that the person who attacked me seemed to be a wandering ninja who could transform into a monster," [Dou] raised his hand and knocked on his forehead, saying with an annoyed look on his face:

"I looked at him dressed as a civilian, running away in a hurry like a bereaved dog, and I thought I could get something out of him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he saw me approaching, he turned into a man with many dogs. The monster with his hand hit me without saying a word, and I was accidentally attacked by him. My memory seems to have been interrupted during that time."

"Growing many hands?" [Lin]'s expression hidden behind the mask suddenly became more confused. He turned his head and looked at Hatake Kakashi, who was also very surprised, and asked [Dou] in a deep voice: "Isn't he a Kirigakure ninja with two wings on his back and a third hand, and wearing a black red cloud robe?"

"No, no, I don't remember ever seeing a guy who turned into what you said, captain, and the guy who attacked me didn't even wear a forehead protector. Otherwise, how could I know that he was How could you approach Kirigakure so recklessly?" [Dou] shook his head and answered very confidently.

"...After the Kirigakure ninja was successfully attacked by me, he said that they did not kidnap the miko of the Demon Country, and said that I was slandering them, the heroes who defeated the monsters and saved the miko."

Seeing [Fighting], he was sure that he was not a ninja who was cheated by Kirigakure. Kakashi Hatake did not hide the conversation that took place between himself and Uchiha Shisui, but spoke it frankly:

"At that time, I saw him standing next to [Dou] with a kunai, and I subconsciously thought that the weird-looking man was the murderer of [Dou], so I didn't believe what that guy said... This was my mistake. If the village needs me to apologize to the Kirigakure ninja I hurt in order to avoid diplomatic trouble, I will seriously prepare the apology."

"This can't be blamed on you. After all, according to [Bing]'s description, that guy does look suspicious. Even if it were me, I can't guarantee that I won't look at him the first time I see him. I mistakenly thought that he was going to kill [Dou]."

[Lin] shook his head, rejecting Hatake Kakashi's idea of ​​taking all the responsibility on himself, and then looked at [Dou] who had lost his mask and looked annoyed, and sighed and said:

"It seems that we arrived a little late... The wandering ninja who attacked [Dou] may be the follower of the sprite who fled in a hurry after the Kirigakure ninja defeated the sprite..."

"Then what are we going to do next, [Lin]?" The [Zhe] in charge of the medical mission in the team crossed his arms and asked somewhat speechlessly: "If the commission to conquer the monsters has been completed, then we Wouldn’t it be a waste of time?”

"Based on the current situation, it is very likely that this is the case." [Lin]'s tone was also a little helpless, "After all, the letter for help from the Kingdom of Ghosts was handed over by a genin who accidentally picked up a dead carrier pigeon. I don’t know how much time was wasted during this period. In addition, the Yondaime has to select candidates for the mission from among the ninjas who are absolutely reliable and have leisure time. There is nothing that can be done about being overtaken by others..."

"But the person who stole our mission and reward was Kirigakure, a ninja from Kirigakure!"

[The author]'s tone suddenly became passionate, "If people from Sunagakure or Iwagakure complete the mission before us, then I have nothing to say. After all, they themselves are relatively close to the Kingdom of Demons and Countries that have received letters asking for help...

But Kirigakure, Kirigakure, who has no intention of calling for help, and who is farther away from the Kingdom of Oni than Konoha, why should they send out ninjas who can complete the mission earlier than us? come? Even if you are grabbing a commission, that’s not how you grab it, right? Could it be that the Fourth Mizukage was still able to predict the future? ? "

The four members of Konoha present were all silenced by this question.

Yes, how did Kirigakure, who was far away in the Kingdom of Water overseas, know that such a situation was happening in the Kingdom of Demons, and how could he protect the miko before Sunagakure, Iwagakure and Konoha sent out ninjas? What about the mission to conquer the monsters?

It can’t be said that the Fourth Mizukage Kaguya Rei personally took action, right? That would be too cheap, and could he leave Kirigakure's daily affairs alone?

The group of four thought here for a long time but couldn't come up with a result. In the end, the captain [Lin] made the judgment and immediately set off to return to the capital of the Demon Country to see if the people of Kirigakure could control the Demon Country. The two mikos were brought back safely.

If so, they would admit that their skills were indeed inferior to others, and they would be willing to be inferior. Before leaving, they would intimidate the miko guards who made trouble over nothing and almost caused them to fight Kirigakure's ninjas, and teach them that they could eat whatever they wanted. The truth that words should not be said casually;

But if the two miko from the Kingdom of Oni do not return safely, or there is something obviously wrong with the logic of their actions after returning... then they will have to spar with the Kirigakure ninja.

As for how Kirigakure knew the news, and whether he intended to compete with Konoha for business... let's leave it to the Fourth Hokage to deal with the headache.

After discussing the action plan, [Zeer] checked the bodies of Kakashi Hatake and [Dou], and confirmed that their injuries had been controlled to the extent that they could heal on their own, before heading towards him. He rushed back in the direction he came from.

After they left, a small white snake slowly poked its head out from a patch of dense grass not far from the group of people. After looking at the direction in which the three people left for a while, it melted with a bang. The white smoke dissipated, and what he had just seen and heard returned to his own body.

…

"Shisui, I have good news and bad news here. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Uchiha Shisui, who had already completed the rendezvous with Mikigakaki Kisame and was rushing toward the capital of the Demon Country with the tired-looking Miroku and Shion mother and daughter, White Snake, which had been silent for a while, regained its vitality. He raised his head and asked Shisui beside him.

"Good news, please." Uchiha Shisui replied with a wry smile.

"The good news is that they didn't discover the illusion you used... You are indeed the strongest illusion genius in Uchiha. Even if you haven't opened the Mangekyo Sharingan, you can easily immerse people in your illusion without Know yourself."

Kaguya Rei's words made Shisui feel relieved. Although he knew that there was still bad news waiting for him, at least this good news made him less worried and worried.

"So, what's the bad news?"

"The bad news is that they also plan to go to the capital of the Kingdom of Ghosts to see if you can send the miko back properly, and based on the results, they will decide whether to go to the trouble of those nonsense miko guards."

"That is to say, you have to communicate with the miko-sama to ensure that she will not tell anyone about you, and then you have to get ahead of those Konoha Anbu to get those who have seen you exposed and wrote The memory of the guard of the Wheel Eye...but this shouldn’t be too difficult for you, right?”

Kaguya Rei's tone rose slightly, with a hint of schadenfreude, but as he said, this bad news is nothing to Uchiha Shisui, as long as his speed is fast enough and his illusion is stable enough. Difficult matter.

The areas that Uchiha Shisui is best at are teleportation and illusion.
