Civilians in Konoha, forging their own paths

Shortly after Mizunotsuki Hyoga left, Karatachi Yagura personally escorted the Third Mizukage away from the Karatachi clan's residence!

Of course, at this time, Yagura Karatsuka and the Third Mizukage were both clones of Dihuangmaru!

And Dihuangwan's real body continued to transform into the lower-level ninja Mizunoe Bingyu, hiding in the Mizunoe clan!

In Mizunotsuki Hyoga's study, the two people who had returned did not rest, but were waiting quietly.

Soon, Dihuang Wan appeared in the room!

Mizunotsuki Hyoga and the others quickly stood up and saluted, "Master Dihuangwan, you are back!"

"You two, I'm reminding you one last time, there are no Rehmannia Pills here, only Mizunotsuki Bingyu!"

"Yes, yes, Lord Bingyu is right!" The two of them quickly changed their words.

Dihuang Wan nodded and motioned for the two to sit down, "Clan Leader Binghe, Elder Kong, I need to set a rule for you!"

"Just say it, Lord Bingyu. We will do as you say!" Mizunoe Binghe said, and Mizunoe Sora also nodded.

"In the Mizunotsuki clan, on the surface, you two are still the leaders, and I am just an unknown Genin. I will not participate in the daily management of the clan!"

"When something happens, I will send you a message, and you just need to do as you are told!"

"Yes, we will follow Lord Bingyu's orders!" the two echoed.

Dihuangwan nodded, "Now, the Third Mizukage and his disciples have been killed by me. Looking back, I have killed many Kage-level strongmen, but this is the first time I have killed the Kage who is in charge of a village!"

"With Lord Bingyu's strength, I'm afraid that none of the Five Kage can be your match!" Mizunoe Sora flattered.

Dihuangwan shook his head and said, "Among the five Kage, I have fought against three of them. I also know the strength of the other two. The Third Mizukage can be said to be the weakest one!"

Mizunoe Hyoga and Mizunoe Sora looked at each other and both smiled bitterly without saying anything!

"But from tonight on, I will be the Third Mizukage, and Kirigakure will enter a transitional phase!"

"Lord Bingyu, I wonder how you plan to govern. Do you want to adjust the policies of the Third Mizukage?" Mizunoe Binghe said.

"We'll take it one step at a time. The policies of the Third Generation must be adjusted. Before that, we must gather and control his subordinates and forces!"

Dihuangwan intends to turn Kirigakure into his own base camp, so naturally he needs to completely control Kirigakure's power, but he needs to do it step by step.

"Then Lord Bingyu, what should our clan do next?" asked Mizunoe Binghe.

"No need to change, everything remains the same, just cooperate when I need you! When the time is right, I will change the current policy of Kirigakure, and then the Mizunotsuki clan will naturally take the lead!"

"Yes, Lord Hyoga!" Mizunoe Hyoga said.

"I will take half a month to completely master the power of the former Third Mizukage. After that, the curtain of change in Kirigakure will officially begin!" Dihuangwan said, his eyes emitting the aura of a superior that he had never had before, and there was a hint of murderous intent in this aura!

In the following half month, Dihuangwan's two clones began their plan to take power, while the original body was carrying out boring training in a remote courtyard of the Mizunotsuki clan!

It is winter now. Although it is not the snow season yet, the temperature is very low. Even so, the Hidden Mist Village is still shrouded in fog!

Only during the snow season will the fog disappear briefly, and when the snow season is over, the fog will come back again!

During this period, Dihuangwan returned to Konoha. Feiyun no longer cares about the hospital's affairs and spends more time at home resting and taking care of the pregnancy.

Kushina's freedom is restricted within a certain range. Except for not being able to leave the village, she is not restricted in places such as the training ground and the back mountain. This is the result achieved with the joint efforts of Feiyun, Tsunade, and Jiraiya!

In the anime, Kushina was strictly controlled in the courtyard until Minato gained enough strength, and then the situation improved!

Minato is still on the mission. Judging from Kushina's usual training progress, Minato has indeed done what he promised to Dihuangmaru. And after Dihuangmaru's (death), Kushina seems to have grown up, lost a lot of her childishness, and practiced even harder!

After spending some time being affectionate with Feiyun and telling her to keep warm and take care of herself in the cold weather, Dihuangwan left and returned to Wuyin!

Half a month later, Dihuangwan has completely mastered the power of the former Third Generation Mizukage and eliminated some of the dregs!

The curtain of Kirigakure's transformation has officially been raised!

The Dihuangwan organization held a ninja clan representative conference, and all the big and small ninja clans in the Hidden Mist were present!

The Hozuki clan, "What is the Third Mizukage up to? Do you want to further reduce the power of our clan?"

The Terumi clan, "I don't know what will happen next. The Third Mizukage is so fickle. The future of our ninja clan is worrying!"

The Kaguya clan, "What is the Third Generation going to do? The top warriors in our clan have been exhausted. We have no power to resist at all. Alas!"

Basically all the ninjas believed that this meeting would be a Hongmen Banquet!

The meeting officially began. On the left and right sides of Dihuangwan were Kotachi Yagura and Mizunoe Hyoga!

"Ahem, everyone, I called you all here today because I want to discuss two things with you!" Dihuang Wan coughed lightly.

Everyone had different expressions, waiting for Dihuang Wan's next words.

"Since the Second Ninja World War, our Kirigakure has suffered heavy losses. All the clans have lost soldiers and generals, and the top powerhouses are missing, so..."

"So, I decided to change my previous governing policy!"

"Lord Mizukage, we have lost too many strong men in our clan. We can't stand it any longer!" The chief of a small ninja clan couldn't help crying.

Someone started talking, and immediately the whole meeting room was filled with discussions!

Dihuangwan thought to himself, "Alas, the poor little ones of Kirigakure are really being cornered by the Third Mizukage!"

Dihuang Wan coughed lightly again, and the conference room suddenly fell silent!

"Everyone, please listen to me first, it's not too late to discuss it later!"

"So, I have decided to abolish the previous policy, take a comprehensive rest and recuperate, and at the same time strengthen exchanges with other countries, and no longer close the country to the outside world!"

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar in the conference room. Looking at the wonderful expressions of the clan leaders, Dihuang Wan raised his hand, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then continued.

"And the second point is to reform the Kirigakure Ninja School system. The Ninja School will be adjusted to a six-year system. All children of the Ninja Clan who are six years old or older must be sent to study in the Ninja School. Unless there are special circumstances, they are not allowed to graduate early!"

"Of course, the Ninja School will not interfere with the inheritance of secret techniques within your respective clans!"

As soon as the two suggestions were put forward, everyone in the conference room started whispering and discussing. This time Dihuang Wan no longer stopped them and allowed them to discuss!

After a long time, everyone's voices gradually became quieter, and Dihuang Wan said: "Next, for the first item, let's vote by raising our hands!"

After saying that, Dihuang Wan, Goju Yagura, and Mizunotsuki Hyoga all raised their hands. After hesitating for a moment, everyone began to vote!

In the end, the first item was passed with over 70% support!

However, the second item only had half the support rate. Many ninjas obviously preferred to train their own juniors and believed that six years was too long!

Dihuangwan shook his head secretly. The training method of Kirigakure was too radical. Even though it had trained a large number of excellent ninjas, problems were very common. It was a famous place for rebellious ninjas!

Dihuang Wan didn't say much, and passed the second resolution against all objections!

"In the future, they will slowly adapt!" Dihuang Wan thought to himself.
