Naruto Kakashi

After officially accepting Orochimaru's commission, Kakashi took up residence in the next room.

The Taketori clan's coup will not take place until tomorrow night, so Kakashi still has plenty of time to prepare.

In order to complete the mission more confidently, Kakashi asked Orochimaru for a lot of information about Kirigakure.

Especially the information about Kirigakure Village in the past two years.

Due to Kirigakure's Blood Mist Policy, Kirigakure Village is closed to the outside world. As a result, the Akatsuki organization has the least information about the Kingdom of Water among the five major countries.

As far as Kakashi knew, the Akatsuki organization had very little action in the Land of Water.

Therefore, Kakashi's information about Kirigakure Village still stayed in the Konoha ANBU period.

Orochimaru did not refuse, and then sent Kabuto to deliver two large piles of documents to Kakashi.

Kabuto was worthy of being someone whom Orochimaru valued. The information he gave to Kakashi contained a lot of information, but it was not complicated, and was instead clearly organized.

In order to ensure a better completion of the mission, Kakashi spent a day carefully studying the information about Kirigakure Village provided by Kabuto.

After reading the information, the situation in Kirigakure, which had been in the fog in his mind, gradually became clear.

Generally speaking, the situation in Kirigakure Village is relatively clear.

In recent years, due to the fourth generation Mizukage's implementation of the blood mist policy again, Kirigakure Village was divided into two factions from top to bottom.

One faction is headed by Mizukage Gotachibana Yagura, and its main ninja swordsmen, the Oniden clan and other famous families are on Mizukage's side.

The other faction, headed by an elder named Yuanshi, clearly opposed the blood mist policy.

However, there are not many families that support Genshi, and most of his subordinates are powerful individuals, such as Mei Terumi, Riki Yugao, the Vulpix Jinchūra, etc., all of whom are ninjas with great potential.

Kabuto's current undercover identity in Kirigakure is that of the Genshi faction.

At first, the strength of the Mizukage faction had an overwhelming advantage over the Genshi faction, but as time went by, more and more Kirigakure ninjas joined the Genshi side, and the strength of the two sides began to become more balanced.

This has also led to increasingly serious friction between the two factions. If it hadn't been for the recent conflict with Sunagakure, which diverted the conflicts within the village, the two factions would have begun to engage in armed confrontation.

These are generally the situation in Kirigakure Village in recent years.

As for the latest information, it is naturally about the coup of the Taketori clan.

Moreover, Kabuto has gained the trust of the Yuanshi faction and obtained a lot of inside information that is unknown to ordinary people.

The Taketori clan who suddenly announced a coup this time did not belong to one of the two factions.

After all, with their brains full of muscles, it is naturally impossible to expect them to stand in line.

Although the two factions covet the combat power of the Bamboo clan, no one wants to put a time bomb next to them, so the Bamboo clan has always remained neutral.

Therefore, after the news that the Taketori clan planned to launch a coup on the night of the full moon was leaked, both factions were a little surprised. The Mizukage faction was naturally very resolute in their attitude. While summoning people from outside the village to return to the village, they quickly transferred ordinary residents in the village.

Yuanshi, the leader of the opposition in the village, also expressed opposition.

Because the reason why the Taketori clan launched the coup was not to abolish the blood mist policy, but to oppose reconciliation with Sunagakure, under the guise that the only meaning of survival was to fight, it made people laugh and cry, but also felt very headache.

Reconciliation with Sunagakure is a policy decided upon by high-level discussions and consensus between the two factions. It is also the wish of the vast majority of residents in the village. Therefore, almost no one in Kirigakure supports the coup of the Taketori clan.

Although the news was leaked and no one supported it, the Taketori clan did not change their mind about the coup. They did not even plan to change the date of the coup. They were still actively preparing and waiting for the night of the full moon.

In the blink of an eye, two days passed.

During the past two days, Kakashi stayed in the room and did not go out.

Although he had not left the room, Kakashi could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the Kirigakure Village was becoming more and more depressing as time passed.

The voices of ordinary Kirigakure residents that could still be heard in the past also disappeared with the arrival of the full moon night.

Along with a loud roar and fierce fighting sounds in Kirigakure Village, the Kirigakure coup began.

In the room, Kakashi was already fully armed, and his hair color and appearance were still disguised to some extent.

Although he was facing the Fourth Mizukage, it didn't make much difference to Kakashi whether he was fake or not, but at least it could reduce the possibility of being exposed before arriving at the Mizukage Building.

When Kakashi walked out of the room, he saw Orochimaru.

Kabuto is no longer with Orochimaru, and should have participated in the suppression of the coup as a member of the Genshi faction.

"Let's go, the fun has already begun." Orochimaru's narrow eyes shimmered, obviously very interested in the battle taking place outside.

With that said, the two of them came outside the house.

It was late at night and the bright moon was high.

Perhaps due to the influence of the smell of blood wafting from the distance, Kakashi felt that today's moon was not as bright as before, but instead was covered with a layer of blood.

Following Orochimaru, Kakashi arrived at the roof of a house.

Although the height of this house is not very high, standing on the roof can see the battle taking place in the distance.

Move your gaze towards the battlefield.

Although the coup has just begun, it is already bloody.

There are more than 200 people in the Taketori clan. It can be said that all the people are soldiers, and they are all ninjas who have experienced hundreds of battles.

More than 200 people formed two complete combat units.

When the coup began, the Taketori clan came out in full force, catching the Kirigakure troops who came to suppress the coup by surprise, causing a certain amount of casualties.

After that, the battle command of the Taketori clan was very organized. The two troops took advantage of each other and advanced towards the Mizukage Building in coordination with each other, showing extremely high combat quality.

He is not at all as foolhardy as the outside world said.

On the other hand, Kirigakure's side sent several times as many personnel as the Taketori clan to resist, but their performance was somewhat unsatisfactory. Facing the push of the Taketori clan, there was almost no resistance and they were retreating steadily. Fortunately, the team retreated in an orderly manner. , and there were not many casualties.

Just when the Taketori clan was making great progress, an accident happened.

Not long after all the troops of the Taketori clan entered the commercial street in the center of the village, violent explosions suddenly began to occur in the shops on both sides.

Although protected by corpse veins, the violent explosion still caused a large number of casualties to the Taketori clan.

The death of their companions and the fire of the explosion activated the bloodthirsty nature of the Taketori people.

The originally neat offensive formation was also disrupted, and each member of the Taketori clan began to fight independently.

The Kirigakure ninjas, who had been retreating steadily, were obviously waiting for this opportunity. Regardless of the flames caused by the explosion, they rushed towards the disorderly formation of the Taketori clan.

In an instant, the bustling commercial street turned into the bloodiest battlefield meat grinder.

People from the Taketori clan and Kirigakure ninjas continued to fall, and the blood of the dead even formed a trickle flowing in the street.

Although the Taketori clan is brave, they are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and they are often eaten alive by one enemy with many enemies.

Besieged on all sides and surrounded by multiple enemies, the Taketori clan showed no fear and charged at one Kirigakure ninja after another until they died in battle.

But as more and more Taketori clan members fall to the ground, this farce-like coup seems to be coming to an end.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and bone spurs one meter long suddenly sprang out from the ground in the center of the street, and quickly spread to the surroundings, quickly covering the entire street.

Corpse Veins·Dance of Grass and Fern.

A large number of Kirigakure ninjas on the street who had no time to dodge were pierced by bone spurs, and some were dead or injured and hung on the bone spurs.

The situation on the battlefield changed in an instant.

The powerful blow silenced the entire battlefield.

Immediately afterwards, a Taketori boy appeared in everyone's sight.

The boy looked to be only seven or eight years old, but the attack just now that covered the entire commercial street made it impossible for everyone present to ignore his presence.

When the Taketori boy appeared on the battlefield, Kakashi noticed that Orochimaru's eyes lit up. It was obvious that the boy was the target of his trip.

The target appears, which means it's time for Kakashi to enter.
