The Water Mist Assassin from Hokage

"Why did you choose the Four-Tails as your first hunting target?"

Kimimaro, who was following Mushu, asked aloud that for this inexperienced young man, the political aspects of the ninja world were too complicated.

"Because the Four Tails are not in Iwagakure Village now, nor are they under the surveillance of Iwagakure Village."

Mushu lifted up the tree trunk that was blocking his progress and threw it aside. He turned to look at Kimimaro who was extremely confused. It seemed that even if he was a political idiot, Kimimaro knew that things like tailed beasts and jinchūriki should be suppressed by Ninjamura Yan. Plus guarded, not something that can easily run outside the village.

"How should I put it? There are a lot of things involved. After all, the third Tsuchikage, that man is a very powerful shadow. He is so powerful that he can sacrifice many things for the sake of the village."

As Mushu spoke, he saw a small wooden house appearing in front of the two of them. A monk was planting vegetables and watering the house in front of the house.

"Kimimaro, do you know that the first Hokage was not evenly divided into tailed beasts. Otherwise, if it were really evenly divided, Kirigakure Village would not have two tailed beasts."

After greeting the monk, Mushu told Kimimaro some stories from long ago. It was so long ago that when Genshi told him this story, Genshi still had one or two hairs...

"Are you kidding! Our Kirigakure Village will never give up the Eight-Tails to you Kumo ninjas!"

At the first Five Kage Conference, the first generation Mizukage Byakuren slammed his hands on the table and looked at the first generation Raikage Ai.

"Hmph! With just the few manpower of your Kirigakure Village, do you really plan to start a war with our Cloud Ninja Village?"

Ai's voice was calm, but the content of his words did not flinch at all.

The guards standing behind the two of them also looked at each other with great vigilance, as if the two sides were going to fight in the next second.

As the founders of Kirigakure and Kumogakure villages, both of them are extremely powerful ninjas, so when it comes to allocating tailed beasts, neither of them will give in easily if they fail to achieve their goals.

In fact, none of the five shadows here are easy to get along with.

Unlike the later ninjas, even if the First Kage knew that they could not defeat the First Hokage, they still had the courage to take action against the Senju Hashirama in the face of the village's problems, so even if everyone came here to give face to the First Hokage for the meeting , but once it comes to their respective villages, even the first Hokage will show no mercy.

"Okay, okay, everyone, please stop arguing. Didn't we say that the matter of tailed beasts should be adapted to local conditions?"

The First Hokage looked at the two people who were at war with each other and advised them from the side.

The so-called adapting to local conditions means that the first Hokage sealed the uniforms of tailed beasts who were causing trouble in various places and then returned them to the villages in various places. No one knew how Hashirama felt the mood of the tailed beasts. In fact, Hashirama himself did not know, but Hashirama Jian still suggested that the tailed beasts should be sent back to their original places as much as possible.

For example, one tail was caught in the desert, four tails were caught on rocky ground, and three tails and eight tails were caught in the sea.

Naturally, no one has any objection to Hashirama's proposal. In fact, when facing the tailed beasts that are like natural disasters, instead of fighting them with manpower and competing with their attributes, it is better to let them continue to survive where they are, so that even if If you let them go accidentally, they can quickly calm down their anger and return to calm.

Looking at the considerate people, Hashirama was extremely moved, and even almost shed tears.

After Senju Hashirama established the Leaf Village, he went to various places in the ninja world to find like-minded people to calm down this damn troubled world.

And when he traveled around, he naturally recognized the shadows of the four major ninja villages today.

As the No. 1 ninja who successfully established a ninja village at that time, Senju Hashirama wanted to help these Kages stabilize the situation in their respective villages. At the suggestion of his younger brother Senju Tobirama, he defeated and sealed all the tailed beasts that were causing trouble in various places. Accelerate the unification and development of other ninja villages.

Perhaps for Senju Hashirama at that time, this was just to speed up the end of the troubled times, but in the eyes of several others, this was a way for Konoha Village to show its strength.

So after Senju Hashirama proposed the Five Kage Talks, the four Kages agreed one after another after brief thought. On the one hand, they wanted to see what the ninja god had in mind, and on the other hand, everyone also wanted to see this. How is the development plan of an established village?

Of course, there were too many things to deal with at this meeting, so much so that no matter how the five major ninja villages fought, the general pattern did not change at all.

Among many things, the one thing that everyone is most concerned about is what Senju Hashirama said about dividing the tailed beast equally.

Looking at the first Hokage who kept his posture very low, the other Kages were full of doubts, but for such a strong man willing to put down their dignity, everyone would naturally give enough face and restrain their subordinates not to easily cause friction with other villages.

But when it comes to the tailed beast, no one wants to give up this terrifying power easily.

Naturally, there is nothing good to say about Iwagakure Village. It is enough for them to decide on the fourth and fifth tails early. Therefore, from the beginning, the first Tsuchikage Ishikawa has been making jokes and trying to win for Iwagakure Village in other aspects. More benefits.

As for the other tailed beasts, the first tail has been determined to belong to Sunagakure Village, the second tail has also been determined to belong to Kumogakure Village, the six-tails belongs to Kirigakure Village, and the strongest and most difficult to subdue the nine-tails belongs to Konoha Village.

The only thing that is uncertain now is the ownership of the three tailed beasts, the three-tailed beasts, the seven-tailed beasts, and the eight-tailed beasts.

Regarding the three-tailed beasts and the eight-tailed beasts, because these two tailed beasts were defeated and captured by the first Hokage on the sea, they should belong to Kumogakure Village or Kirigakure Village.

But as we all know, the more tails a tailed beast has, the more chakra it can theoretically possess and the stronger it will be.

So both Ai and Byakuren set their sights on the Eight-Tails.

But now the most embarrassing thing happened, that is, the funds the two of them paid were exactly the same. It would be better to say that the funds used by several movies to buy the tailed beasts were all the same, rising in a ladder-like manner.

Because everyone did not want Konoha Village to gain too much benefit from this transaction, everyone was very restrained in terms of funds. The results of the four people's private discussions were just within the acceptable range of Senju Tobirama.

Therefore, on the premise that Konoha Village cannot make too much money, everyone naturally needs to force their opponents to make concessions in other ways.

Bai Lian glared at Ai, and Ai didn't flinch. Their eyes met, as if they were going to burn the air between them.

"You two, please calm down, we have the final say, don't we?"

Senju Tobirama looked at Ai and Bailian, spoke out to focus everyone's attention, and made sure everyone was looking at him. Senju Tobirama paused slightly before continuing.

"So we decided to hand over the eight tails to Yunyin Village. Senior Bairen, you don't have to worry, you can also buy the three tails."

Everything is for balance. As mentioned at the beginning of this meeting, everything is for the purpose of balancing the strength of the major human villages to ensure long-term peace.

So faced with such a result, the first generation Mizukage only showed a little bit of unwillingness and accepted it openly.

After all, having the Three-Tails and the Six-Tails was something the village decided on from the beginning.

As the two tailed beasts were confirmed again, the four Kage's eyes were also focused on the first Kazekage Reito.

After all, all three of their so-called top five ninja villages now own two tailed beasts. In order not to become the target of public criticism, Konohagakure will naturally not choose to possess two tailed beasts at the same time. If you calculate it this way, the last tailed beast will naturally It should fall on Sunagakure Village.

"I'm sorry, we Sunagakure Village chose to give up."

Liedou felt the eyes of everyone and replied with a smile on his face, without showing any trace of shame.

However, this result did not surprise everyone. After all, although Sand Hidden Village has a huge land area, [-]% of the Kingdom of Wind is uninhabited desert, and the remaining [-]% ​​of the land is occupied by Sand Hidden Village and the capital of Wind Country. , living a difficult life relying on abundant groundwater.

It can be said that among the five major ninja villages now, Sunagakure Village is the poorest ninja village.

This is why at the beginning, when faced with the four tailed beasts of one, four, five and seven, Liedou chose the cheapest one without hesitation.

"But as one of the five major ninja villages, we should be able to transfer this right to purchase tailed beasts."

Liedou said and looked at Shi He, so everyone also looked at Shi He.

As the only big country adjacent to the Wind Country, the Fire Country is the host of this meeting and needs to maintain absolute neutrality. So handing over the right to purchase the tailed beasts to a small country sandwiched between the three big countries will naturally require land. country’s consent.

"...Of course." As a neighbor of Sand Hidden Village, Ishikawa nodded after thinking again and again. Anyway, Rock Hidden Village would not buy any more tailed beasts, not only because they couldn't afford it, but also because they didn't want to. Becoming the first bird, and he had greeted Lie Dou before, the two of them had also decided on many matters related to trade between the villages in private, and Shi He, who was in the honeymoon period, did not intend to destroy this alliance.

"Then I propose Takigakure. I don't know what you think. Moreover, Nanao happened to be active near Takigakure before. Letting them buy it is in line with Hashirama-kun's proposal."

Liedou's proposal was naturally not controversial to Ai and Bailian. After all, the huge ninja continent and the tailed beasts operating on their side had been divided up by them, so they were not interested at all in what happened on the other side of the ninja continent.

"of course can."

Senju Hashirama also agreed to this allocation. After all, Takigakure, a small ninja village, was neither big nor small, but its extremely special geographical environment was enough for them to keep a tailed beast.

Hashirama's idea has always been very simple. The purpose of assigning tailed beasts to the major ninja villages is to dispel everyone's fear of Konoha Village. At the same time, through the restriction of tailed beasts, the major ninja villages will be able to fight against each other no matter how much friction they cause. Can maintain the last shred of sanity.

Moreover, the emergence of the five major ninja villages can also ensure that the huge ninja world has at least five huge territories that are unified and peaceful. This is much better than the previous Warring States Period when there were many small countries and complex factions.

Hashirama, who is dedicated to peace, readily accepted everyone's deal, and even repeatedly wanted to reduce the purchase cost of tailed beasts, leaving everyone with money to facilitate the development of their respective shinobi villages. However, this proposal was immediately rejected by Senju Tobirama and the other four shadows. reject.

Although the villages ruled by the four of them are not as wealthy as Konoha Village, everyone does not need such charity. If Hashirama really insists on cutting prices and discounts for everyone, the four people will feel that Konoha Village has a big plan.

At this point, with the ownership of the nine tailed beasts determined, the first Five Kage Conference was held extremely smoothly...

"I never thought it would be like this..."

Kimimaro sat by the campfire and looked quite surprised after listening to Mushu's story. For Kimimaro, those events at that time sounded like fairy tales. After all, no one later would have thought that the original symbols of identity and status The tailed beast has now become a burden that many ninja villages cannot get rid of.

Maybe this was one of Senju Tobirama's plans back then.

"You kid looks very young, but you know a lot."

Sitting on the other side of the bonfire was an old monk with red-purple hair and a big beard.

"I'm just very interested in the things of that era, so I know a little more than ordinary people."

Mushu said as he flipped the grilled fish in his hands and continued to tell Kimimaro the story about the tailed beast.

"Speaking of which, among the nine tailed beasts now, the only one who can truly be called a perfect jinchūriki is Kirabi Kirabi, the eight-tailed jinchūriki of Kumogakure Village. From one to nine tails, all the jinchūriki except the eight-tailed beasts are Power is just a distinction based on proficiency in controlling the tailed beast's chakra. Once these people begin to transform into tailed beasts, they cannot easily reverse it. They can only return to human form after the tailed beast in their bodies is vented."

The flames danced between Mushu and the monk, and the fat of the fish dripped into the fire, making a crackling sound.

"So many times when these Jinchuuriki go berserk, they often destroy most of the village. In the end, they can only drag their broken bodies and bear the blame of their companions in the village. They are all alone and bear both physical and psychological pressure."

"You kid, you really know a lot." The monk spoke again, but this time his face was obscured by the sudden burst of flames, making his expression unclear.

"Well, I also know more interesting things. For example, the Eight-Tails is not actually the first perfect Jinchuriki. For example, the Jinchuriki can maintain his sanity once he transforms into a tailed beast. Another example is..."

The flames are becoming more and more lively, and the rising flames seem to burn the horizon, and the earth is gradually drying up and cracking.

"For another example, your name is Lao Zi, and you are the Four-Tailed Jinchuuriki, right?"

After Mushu's words fell, the earth finally couldn't bear the oppressive atmosphere and began to shake violently. As magma flowed out of the monk's body, the entire forest turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Mushu jumped onto a big tree that was about to burn, put Kimimaro down in his arms, looked at the fish that was instantly carbonized in his hand, threw the wooden stick aside and stabbed it into a big tree.

"who are you?"

At this time, Lao Zi stood on top of the rolling magma, his whole body turned into a burning man, looking at Mushu and asking questions.

"Although many people have asked me this question, you are the first ninja I have answered seriously." Mushu threw the bamboo hat aside, revealing his ninja forehead protector, with a slash across the entire forehead protector. Bad, symbolizing Mushu's identity as a rebellious ninja.

"I'm just the rebel ninja of Kirigakure Village, Moshi Kakisu."

Mushu signaled Kimimaro to leave. At this time, the big tree under Mushu's feet made a stagnant sound. The flames had burned along the trunk to Mushu's feet. However, like Lao Zi, these flames did not burn him. The trousers were set on fire.

Under Lao Zi's shocked eyes, Mushu jumped onto the flowing magma without suffering any harm.

"Melting Escape·Scorching River Rock Technique!"

"Melting Escape·Scorching Sun!"

Both of them formed seals with their hands extremely quickly, and Lao Zi spit out multiple magma balls from his mouth to attack Mushu, while Mushu had a large amount of magma flowing from his arms, and a huge magma ball condensed in his hands to hit Lao Zi.

The two people's ninjutsu collided in mid-air, and the exploding magma flew everywhere, forming an extremely terrifying magma rain.

"You are a black gun!"

"That's right, then please give me some advice!"

What responded to Mushu was a wall made of magma.
