Sixteen Years Old, The Fourth Generation of Mizukage

(PS: Many readers of the previous "Wano Country" felt that it was a bit too dramatic, so the relevant content has been changed back to the Country of Iron. I mention it here in case you haven't seen it. I am sorry for the mention in the middle of this chapter. The part about samurai feels strange)

Because Kirigakure's current main demands are peace, reform and population increase, plus he has already collected two super powerful blood inheritance limit seeds from Konoha and has no intention of returning them, so in this writing The agreement that served as a reference for Konoha did not make any excessive demands.

But in the eyes of a veteran like Sarutobi Hiruzen, Kirigakure took the initiative to propose a series of conditions to Konoha such as opening up trade, leasing ports, and opening up regular exchanges between young ninjas. His behavior was really a bit too much. Abnormal.

What's going on? Do you Kirigakure plan to throw away your hat of Blood Mist and quickly transform into a normal open country?

With the reform taking such a big step all of a sudden, aren't you worried that some people will be dissatisfied and start a coup?

Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen cast an incredulous look towards him, the Third Mizukage, who had never had a chance to interrupt before, coughed a few times and said feebly:

"The Kingdom of Water is an island country isolated overseas. It can't be said to be lacking in resources, but it is definitely not rich. If we continue to follow the path of isolation and rely only on our own market and population for development, no matter how hard we work, we will not be able to support the number of ninjas we can afford. It is limited after all..."

"Since we have decided to leave Kirigakure's future to young people, it would be better for these stale old ideas to become history together with old people like me."

Seeing that the Third Mizukage showed a more complete decentralization attitude than himself, Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and sighed half helplessly and half enviously.

If the Third Mizukage, the conservative leader, all decides to support Kaguya Rei's reforms, then no matter how hard the other conservatives on Kirigakure's side struggle, it will be difficult to form a faction that can compete with the reformists, and they will be scattered. It is impossible for scattered protests to slow down Kaguya Rei's speed and determination to implement reforms.

"Sigh, I used to think that Kirigakure's philosophy of respecting the strong and overly advocating strength was barbaric and backward. But if you think about it carefully, if there was a young man with radical ideas and strong strength like Rei Kaguya in the village, it would probably be the same. Only Kirigakure can tolerate his arbitrary behavior after taking power..."

"Although Minato is also a very good ninja, if it comes time to change the long-standing shortcomings in the village, I'm afraid he won't be able to be like Rei Kaguya, who can harden his heart and force the reforms even if he offends a large number of people. Is it going to be implemented?"

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen was absentmindedly comparing the personality differences between Namikaze Minato and Kaguya Rei, Namikaze Shui was having a headache because he couldn't understand the deep meaning of the treaties proposed by Kaguya Rei. He opened the door, but stood up abruptly, frowning and looking outside the venue.

He was accustomed to using special kunai for close-range assassinations, and he keenly captured the sound of metal collision coming from the air.

"Sir, it seems that an assassin who wants to interfere with our talks has appeared..."

Hearing Minato Namikaze's whispered reminder, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed an unexpected look on his face. He put down the scroll in his hand and said in a deep voice to Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya:

"Be careful. The other three countries will definitely not be happy to see us and Kirigakure truce and negotiate for peace. In order to destroy our talks, the assassins they send must be able to threaten Kage-level masters... Be careful when dealing with them. Kirigakure might have other ideas."

"I understand, Third Generation-sama."

Namikaze Minato nodded, took out his Flying Thunder God Kunai from his ninja tool bag, and prepared to attack the assassins who broke in, but Jiraiya held his shoulders and said with a somewhat ominous expression. :

"Minato, don't worry yet...don't you think the movement outside is a bit too intense?"

"It's because the warriors of the Iron Kingdom discovered the sneaking assassins and are resisting..." Namikaze Minato thought about the warriors he and others saw before entering the venue, and said subconsciously: "Is there any problem? Okay, Jiraiya-sensei?"

"The samurai of the Iron Kingdom have not completely let go of their pride until now. Only a handful of them are willing to take the initiative to accept chakra-related training methods." Sarutobi Hiruzen also joined the topic, "But in such a short period of time Within, it should be difficult for them to cultivate powerful samurai who can compete with jounin."

"Could it be a ninja organization that was hired by the Daimyo of the Iron Kingdom?" Namikaze Minato raised a conjecture, "After all, this double shadow meeting is also a rare and important event for the Iron Kingdom. If the defense force is insufficient, it is also possible to choose to hire reliable neutral ninjas, right?"

"But there aren't many ninjas in our five major ninja villages who can fight against the assassin who was selected to kill the shadow of a village..."

"Among the people employed by the Daimyos of the Iron Country, are there any S-class traitor ninjas who are wanted by the five major ninja villages?"

At the other end of the venue, Gotachibana Yagura maintained a vigilant posture and asked Kaguya in a low voice with a relaxed expression:

"Do you know anything about the group of guards outside who have unknown origins but are very powerful, Lian?"

"It's better to say that they are here just because of my invitation, Yagura."

"Why?" Goji Yagura raised his eyebrows in surprise and confusion, "What's the point of having an unknown mysterious organization appear on the stage of the Double Shadow Talk?"

"The meaning is to help them create a resume that is valuable enough to scare people, and then let them, whose base camp is in the Land of Rain, create obstacles for Sunagakure and Iwagakure, who are a little beyond our reach."

Kaguya Rei took out a kunai and spun it dexterously between her fingers. While listening to the increasingly fierce collision of weapons outside, she said slowly:

"The reforms I plan to promote in Kirigakure require an overall peaceful environment in the shinobi world. At least, it also needs to maintain a semblance of peace among the five major powers and prevent any more frontal wars between the major powers... This requires There is an absolutely strong man who can make the hawks of the other four ninja villages stay on their toes and stand up to stop their senseless war behavior."

"But this person cannot be me. If I stand up, the nature of the matter will change, and Kirigakure will become a public enemy of the other four countries, which is not conducive to the implementation of my plan..."

"Fortunately, I found a person who has this idea and has the potential to do this. In order for him to be willing to attract firepower for us, I sold him a favor and provided him with something that only we can conveniently do. What’s wrong with the help?”

After listening to Kaguya Rei's speech, the third Mizukage couldn't help but show an expression on his face that was hesitant to speak, but fortunately, there was Yagura, a younger and more suitable man next to him, who took the initiative to help the third Mizukage. Shadow asked the question he wanted to ask:

"But, relying on the power of one person, you can prevent the major ninja villages from starting another war? Rei, I don't want to flatter you, but you are the only person who can do such a thing. No matter what, you are the only one in this era. Human right?"

"This is it~"

Kaguya Rei sensed the battle outside that was basically over, and held the kunai backhand in his hand with a chuckle.

"You'll know right away why I said he has that potential."

"Shenra Tianzheng."

An indifferent and majestic male voice sounded from outside the venue, followed by an irresistible repulsive shock wave.

Amidst the sound of broken bricks, a figure surrounded by countless broken shurikens was thrown out from the corridor entering the venue like a tattered rag doll. With a bang, it fell to the ground bleeding. .

"That's... Kumogakure's magnetic escape ninja Troy!?"

Namikaze Minato, who had fought many times with Kumogakure, recognized the identity of the defeated ninja at a glance. Knowing that the opponent was quite strong, he immediately turned his head to look in the direction where Troy flew in, and concentrated on guarding Troy. The unknown ninja that he defeated easily.

Then, a pair of lavender eyes with pupils surrounded by circles opened in the shadow of the corridor.

It is the first of the three major pupil techniques. It is said to be the eye owned by the legendary Six Paths Sage, the ancestor of chakra, the Samsara Eye.

"All things are guided by heaven."

A powerful suction force that was completely opposite to the previous repulsive force came from the corridor, and easily caught Troy who was lying on the ground.

"Everyone just needs to feel at ease and continue the talks. Assassins who try to sneak into the venue to disrupt the talks, we 'Akatsuki' will repel them all without landing."

Nagato handed the unconscious Troy to his companions and spoke confidently and calmly to the many shocked eyes in the venue.
