Konoha owes the Uchiha family a Hokage

Located in the southeast corner of the country, the isolated Water Country is completely unaffected by the wars of the Shinobi World. Due to its unique geographical environment, the Water Country is essentially a country composed of multiple islands.

In a fish cake shop in Kirigakure Village, there were two young men with dark skin that was not that of the Land of Thunder. They were weathered by the weather and were a little conspicuous.

Kirigakure Village is very exclusive for both ninjas and villagers, but caravans from neighboring countries often come in to trade. Uchihai and Kakashi disguise themselves as wandering ninjas and sneak in as caravan guards from Yuno Country.

After the Great Ninja War, another major event happened. Nohara Rin, a member of Kakashi's class in Konoha Village, was forced to become the Three-Tailed Jinchuuriki. In order to avoid doing things that would harm Konoha, she voluntarily died at the hands of Kakashi. Since then, Sanwei's whereabouts have become a mystery.

During this period, Konoha completed the replacement of old and new, and Minato Namikaze succeeded the Fourth Hokage as expected.

With the three tails separated from the body, the original three-tailed Jinchuuriki, the third generation Mizukage, may be in bad luck, but Kirigakure Village has yet to choose a candidate for the fourth generation Mizukage.

Taking advantage of the chaotic period when Kirigakure Village had not yet decided on its leader, Danzo issued a mission to trace the whereabouts of the three tails. It involved the very xenophobic Kirigakure Village, and Danzo was in a dilemma. Regarding the task of tailed beasts, the level must be the highest. s, so they must be jounin, but with the xenophobia and vigilance of Kirigakure Village, outside ninjas must be closely monitored.

For Kirigakure Village, even Konoha cannot place spies to infiltrate. Generally, ninja spies will select outstanding orphans to train from an early age and then arrange them to various ninja villages. However, Kirigakure Village does not accept outside ninjas, those who are seven or eight years old. The orphans are no exception.

At this time, age becomes an advantage, and Uchihai and Kakashi, who are only twelve years old, become the most suitable candidates. Although the two of them were under surveillance in the first few days when they arrived in Kirigakure Village, after all Their age makes it easy for Kirigakure to relax his vigilance.

Although Uchiha no longer pursued Kakashi's Sharingan, Namikaze Minato still asked Kakashi to join the ANBU in order to protect him.

Originally, Namikaze Minato was opposed to Kakashi joining this S mission. Nohara Rin's death had a great impact on Kakashi, and once again Kakashi faced the culprit, the Three-Tails, with no guarantee that he would lose control.

Namikaze Minato's opposition not only made Danzo greatly dissatisfied, but even Kakashi himself did not accept his reasons, because it was a sign of distrust in him. As a qualified ninja, when the mission comes, he cannot Evasive.

After returning to the hotel, Kakashi said to Uchiha: "Danzo-sama's information is indeed correct. Kirigakure Village is currently trapped in a whirlpool."

Like Konoha, after Kirigakure approves foreign ninjas to enter the village, they will restrict their activities and monitor them intensively.

In the first few days after arriving in Kirigakure, they were surrounded by Kirigakure's ninjas who were monitoring them 24 hours a day. After a few days, Uchihai found that the number of ninjas monitoring them had decreased.

So the two of them went out openly. The places they went in and out were Kirigakure's restaurants or bathhouses. It was normal for young wandering ninjas to have appetites and enjoy themselves. If they had stayed in the hotel and not left, they would have It attracted Kirigakure's attention even more.

The third generation Mizukage is about to step down, and he intends to let Gotachibana Yagura succeed the fourth generation Mizukage. This is the news that Uchihai and Kakashi got from conversations among the villagers.

When the tailed beast is separated from the body, the Jinchuriki will also die. It must be that Kirigakure Village deliberately concealed the news of the death of the third Mizukage.

"From the time I sneaked into the Kirigakure Village into a caravan to now, I am able to move freely in most areas of the village. Don't you think everything has been too smooth?"

Kakashi frowned, and when Uchiha didn't answer, he continued.

"Even though all the forces in Kirigakure are competing for the position of the fourth Mizukage, I always feel..."

"We're both being targeted."

Uchiha shaft.

"Do you have any idea"

Kakashi asked.

"Not counting thoughts, I have a hunch that the two of us are being targeted."

"You mean the two of us were exposed?"

Kakashi said uncertainly.

"I don't know. In short, it's all about being careful. One more thing, Kakashi, you are too deliberate and too tense. We must remember our current status. We are third-rate wandering ninjas."

Kakashi felt uncomfortable being lectured in an elder's tone by his peers, but he didn't say anything. Not to mention the Sharingan incident, the other party helped him. Uchihai was the captain of this mission, so he said Calculate.

"Have you noticed that at first, when we entered the fish cake shop, the people inside stopped talking and looked hostile, but when we entered the fish cake shop the second time, the people inside were not Don’t avoid talking to us anymore.”

"I even suspect that the words that the third Mizukage intended to let Gotachibana Yagura succeed Mizukage were intended for us to hear."

After hearing this, Kakashi's eyes suddenly widened.

"Then we now..."

"patience"

After Uchiha said this ambiguous answer, he sat cross-legged to refine chakra, which was essential for his daily homework.

Gouju Yagura will become the new three-tailed jinchuriki to succeed the fourth generation of water shadows. Although Uchiha well knows the next development, he cannot report it to Danzo without any reason.

However, Uchiha is not clueless. Although there is not much description of Loquat Juzo in the original work, he still knows this person to some extent.

After failing to compete for the Mizukage, he betrayed Kirigakure Village, then joined Akatsuki and became a teammate of Itachi Uchiha in the future. During a mission, he sacrificed his life in order to cover Itachi's retreat.

This is interesting. In the attack on Konoha, there was no regard for the compatriots who were also members of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Instead, Itachi, who had just become a teammate, had to cover the retreat of his teammates regardless of his own safety.

This change is too big.

Uchihai speculated that perhaps Juuzang Juuzang was unwilling to retreat when facing the competitor of Yagura Yagura.

This mission must be completed before Kirigakure selects the fourth generation Mizukage, otherwise things will become very troublesome.

They were clearly exposed, but no action was taken by Kirigakure. It would not be difficult to capture the two of them in the huge Kirigakure Village, but the two of them were doing well, and someone wanted to take advantage of them.

who is it

Excluding Goji Yagura, the main reason why he can become the fourth generation Mizukage is his identity: the new jinchuriki, the shadow of one village cannot be empty for a long time. At that time, he must be competing with the three tails. , there is no time to care about the two of them.

Then there are only those who are qualified to be Mizukage...

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

Four of them were killed by Matt Dai at the cost of his life, and the remaining three were the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon with the same shark muscle, Juuzang Juzo with the beheading sword, and Chiden Senren with the dual-sword Flounder.

Will it be the three of them?
