People are in Hokage, one person at a time

So, what is the tragedy of Karatachi Yagura?

Did he become famous at a young age, watching his mentor fall into madness but being unable to stop it? Or did he become successful and determined to bring changes to the Mist Ninja, but was forced by a stronger force to push the Mist Ninja into an irreversible abyss?

If there had been no Uchiha Madara, perhaps Karatachi Yagura would have become the most dazzling figure in history.

Born without a bloodline limit family, Yagura Karuta developed a water mirror technique with his own wisdom based on water escape technique that is comparable to the bloodline limit ninja. The coral palm and coral root are Yagura Karuta's only weapons in the ninja world. Later, he tamed the three-tailed fox with his own strength and became the first perfect Jinchūriki in the history of the Mist Ninja...

The most important thing is actually Karuji Yagura's determination.

As a disciple of the Sandaime Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura never denied the mistakes of his mentor. Be they bloodline limit ninja or civilian ninja, in fact, everyone was doing pretty well during the reign of the Sandaime Mizukage.

Even when the mentally ill Hyuga clan staged a coup, the Sandaime Mizukage never killed them all. Although the Sandaime Mizukage hated the condescending attitude of the Kekkei Genkai ninjas, as a Kage, he also understood that it was impossible to leave these things if he wanted to make the Mist Ninjas stronger.

So as a disciple, Karuta Yagura just waited quietly for his teacher to complete this final journey. Although the Third Mizukage made a mistake, Karuta Yagura also knew that if the arrogance of the bloodline limit ninja was not suppressed, the village would sooner or later be in trouble.

The mistakes made by the Sandaime were made up by him, his disciple. In order to have the power to compete with those geniuses, Karutagi Yagura took the initiative to take risks and serve as the Three-Tails Jinchuriki.

If you want to become a Kage, first of all you must have the power to protect the village at the critical moment. Therefore, in addition to improving his personal strength, Yagura Karuta also secretly recruited a large number of people to be loyal to him. As long as he, Yagura Karuta, becomes the Mizukage, the blood mist will dissipate above the Mist Ninja, and the sunlight will shine into the village.

Unfortunately, everything that Karuta Yagura did was ultimately no match for Uchiha Madara's eye. The illusion of the Sharingan made Karuta Yagura's years of hard work go to waste. Although he still became the Mizukage, Karuta Yagura not only failed to make up for the mistakes made by his teacher, but also failed to blow away the blood mist of the Mist Ninja. Instead, under the control of the illusion, he completely became the driving force of the Mist Ninja towards the abyss, and the synonym of the Land of Blood Mist.

One has to admit that this is quite ironic. The dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon, as if it is the eternal truth of this world. Even though he, Karuta Yagura, was controlled by illusion, the things he did in the Mist Ninja were not his original intention.

But what he did was done. Even though he had been in a daze all these years, as the shadow of a village, this was the biggest mistake he should have made.

Unfortunately it's too late to say anything now.

Under the leadership of Yagura Karatachi, the Kirigakure has become the biggest joke in the entire ninja world.

What a bullshit elite policy. If the so-called elites mean that the future of the Mist Village needs to kill all their companions with their own hands when they graduate, then what is the point of cultivating such so-called elites?

From the initial number of ninjas and family background that were comparable to Konoha to now being inferior to those bandits surviving in the desert, this is the Mist Ninja born under the so-called elite policy. As for him, Yagura...

He was the sinner who sent the Mist Ninja into the grave with his own hands.

So, what have I been struggling for all these years?

Feeling the pain on his back, Yagura Karuta, who had fully awakened from the explosion of the Tailed Beast Ball, just lay quietly on the water.

He was really too tired. As the Mizukage and the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, Karuta Yagura naturally had the strength to fight again.

But the Three-Tails was in a very bad condition. It broke free from the control of the Sharingan, and the Tailed Beast Ball, which was filled with rage, almost took half of the Three-Tails' life.

Just like the scene when they were cut in half in the battle with Konoha, the tailed beasts also have life, and when they are hit, they will also feel pain.

So at the last moment the Three-Tails hid back in his own body. The chakra from the Three-Tails burned his skin, just like a layer of it was scraped off by a steel knife. Under the stimulation of the sea water, it was very difficult for him to even faint.

But Karuju Yagura didn't want to struggle anymore.

Without any chakra fluctuations, like a corpse floating on the sea, Karuizawa Yagura's limbs were submerged in the sea, leaving only his scarred torso and numb expression quietly looking at the sky.

At the last moment when the Three-Tails was about to return control, Yagura Karuta saw the Ice Release that represented the original power of the Mist Ninja. He suddenly remembered the Tailed Beast Ball he spit out at the Mizunotsuki clan that night.

Perhaps the survivors at that time returned to the Mist Ninja to seek revenge on themselves. The Blood Mist Policy was implemented by two generations and finally ended at the hands of the Bloodline Limit Ninja. Everyone paid too much for this situation.

But it's better this way. To die at the hands of Mizunotsuki is to make up for the mistakes made by the teacher back then. As for my own mistakes...

"Kouju Yagura, now that things have come to this, do you have anything to say?"

He landed on the ground in an instant, and Yuexi looked down at Gojo Yagura who was lying on the water. An icicle continued to spread downwards along Yuexi's fingers, and finally the tip of the icicle pressed against Gojo Yagura's throat. The coldness from the ice escape passed into Gojo Yagura's body along the icicle. Perhaps it was his illusion, but wherever the cold current passed, there was numbness. Although these cold currents were destroying his body functions, compared to being burned by chakra, this made Gojo Yagura much more energetic.

It turns out that ice does more than just hurt people.

Such a thought flashed through his mind, and under the stimulation of the cold, Goji Yagura's originally depressed spirit recovered a lot.

"You...what's your name?"

With trembling lips, after adapting to the current situation, Karuta Yagura asked his doubts.

Yuexi calmly looked at Karuju Yagura's half-closed eyes and said, "Mizuno Yue Yuexi."

"Mizunotsuki Yuexi? I've never heard of this name in the Mist Ninja before. In my opinion, your power is even greater than Mizunotsuki Ren. Although it's hard to imagine, the ice escape technique in your hand is what it should have been like when the Shogaime-sama established the Mist Ninja."

This made Yuexi a little difficult to answer. Although Mizunotsuki Byakuren was the first generation Mizukage of the Mist Ninja, the quality of the first generation of kages was different. Yuexi had never seen Mizunotsuki Byakuren's ice escape technique, but if he wanted to achieve his level...

"Almost. But you haven't seen everything yet."
