Naruto: Konoha Uzumaki Shirataki

"It's okay, it's okay." Uzumaki Cheng waved his hands repeatedly, his face did not show any displeasure, but asked curiously, "Master Shirataki, were you thinking about your teammate just now?"

"Well, more or less." After dealing with Uzumaki Cheng vaguely, Shirataki made it clear that he didn't want to say more, and quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, tell me about your plan."

Shirataki didn't want to say anything, so Uzumaki Makoto didn't ask further questions. Seeing Shirataki mentioning things about himself, he immediately straightened his expression and said quickly as if he was prepared, "The current Uzumaki clan leader is forced to The situation is temporary, I believe you should know this.”

Shirataki nodded and raised his hand to signal the other person to continue. Uzumaki Cheng took a deep breath, and thinking about what he had heard and seen in the recent period, his expression turned a little ferocious unconsciously, "Whether this person is in terms of ability, character, or his foundation and reputation within the clan, he is... It seems to me that I am not qualified to hold the supreme authority of our clan.”

"The reason why he was able to ascend to the throne is simply because he is a member of the original group of elders, and most of the elders are willing to support him."

"These old guys who are living in a state of indifference cannot see clearly the current world situation. They still miss the glory of the past, but they are not willing to accept new things and contribute to the growth of our clan."

"The most important thing is that they have a complete monopoly on the power class and do not give young people like me the opportunity to advance."

After saying such a long series of words, Uzumaki Cheng gasped twice, and seemed to be very excited. Shirataki could see that what the other party said now should be true, but

"What I want to hear is your plan, not these complaints." Shirataki said in a neutral tone. Shirataki paused. Seeing that Uzumaki Cheng gradually calmed down, he continued, "Also, I want to remind you. One sentence.”

Shirataki narrowed his eyes, and his expression showed a rare hint of concentration. "The internal struggle in Konoha is beyond your imagination."

After thinking for a moment, Shirataki roughly understood what Uzumaki Makoto's motives were. Judging from the other party's previous complaints about the Uzumaki clan elders, Uzumaki, the ninja group that monopolizes a country based on family units, has solidified its internal hierarchy. I'm afraid it's far more serious than he imagined.

Seniority, seniority, and age no matter which authority one is in, these important factors that determine whether a person is promoted or not still exist. This world is no different than his previous life. This difference is not only reflected in the ability of ninjas to fly into the sky and escape from the earth.

More importantly, the difference between thought and culture. A capable ninja may be able to gain a certain status, but without the backing, bloodline, and similar political resources to support him, he will still have no chance of success within the ninja village system and will always be just a part-time worker.

Konoha may have done better than other ninja villages in this regard, but in fact, the good results are very limited. This can be seen from the time when Sarutobi Hiruzen and others occupied the top level of power for a long time and continued until the beginning of the plot in later generations. .

Even if there is an example of Minato, let's not talk about whether Minato's superior Hiruzen Sarutobi supported the shallow ninja with the intention of continuing to control the overall situation behind the scenes. Let's talk about the period after Minato's death. In this process , is there really no ninja in Konoha who is worthy of the title of Hokage?

You know, Tsunade has always been alive. Why didn't Hiruzen Sarutobi consider calling Tsunade back to the village to succeed him as Hokage? Instead, he stood up again to exert his remaining enthusiasm and regained the power of Konoha for so many years?

In Shirataki's view, everything for the sake of the village and peace and stability are just excuses at best. In the final analysis, it's just Sarutobi Hiruzen who can't let go of the desire for power in his heart. If Konoha is like this, let alone Uzushio Village.

Shirataki has never been afraid to speculate on others with the greatest malice. In his eyes, the existence of the Ninja clan and the right to speak within the clan are basically controlled by the clan leader, elders and other people. They are unwilling to do so, and it is impossible for them to do so. Let go.

As for the clan leaders and elders, unless you are a ninja within your own faction, even if you have the ability, do you want to be in a position and really hold power? Dream on!

Uzumaki's sincerity in his will to ascend seemed quite firm. After weighing the left and right, Shirataki finally decided not to cooperate with the other party for the time being.

Three days later, it was another early morning. Outside Uzushio Village, in a small forest about a few kilometers away from the Kirigakure camp, two of the Shirogaki shadow clones lurking here also started a new day's work.

"Has the Mizukage not left the camp yet?" One of the shadow clones sat under the shade of a tree, glancing sideways at the other shadow clone who was watching intently in the distance.

The light blue light slowly dissipated, and the shadow clone who was observing closed his secondary eye, looked back at the former, and replied calmly, "No, the Mizukage doesn't seem to be in a hurry to mobilize the three-tailed Jinchuuriki. This paragraph He has been organizing meetings with people, and he doesn’t know what they are discussing.”

"Really?" After hearing this, the No. 1 shadow clone who first asked the question didn't seem too surprised. He lowered his head and drew something on the soil while saying without looking up, "So many days have passed. The disappearance of the three tails should have been exposed, but these fog ninjas still don't seem to notice our actions. "

Hearing this, Shadow Clone No. 2 thought for a while and asked, "Are we still going to wait here?"

"Wait." Shadow Clone No. 1 raised his eyes and looked at Shadow Clone No. 2 and said, "With the main body in Uzushio Village, the defensive power of the Uzumaki clan has undoubtedly been greatly enhanced. In this situation, Mizukage will definitely be there. If something is done recently, it will be a matter of time before Sanwei is deployed on the battlefield.”

"Oh?" Regarding the analysis of Shadow Clone No. 1, Shadow Clone No. 2 seemed a little dissatisfied. "Having suffered once from Mahakala and Shaona Vigana, do you think Mizukage will use tailed beasts so unscrupulously?" Power?"

As the first Jinchuuriki in history to be killed by his own tailed beast jade, although the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki is not famous throughout the ages, he is always in the limelight for a while, that is, Kirigakure and Uzushio Village are still The battle was not over, and the news had not spread. Otherwise, when the war is over and the Kiri Ninja and Uzumaki clan members who personally participated in the war spread the news to the outside world, the entire ninja world will probably be boiling.

Terms like Kirigakure, the Third Mizukage, and the Six-Tailed Jinchuuriki are likely to become the laughing stock of the Second Ninja War, and even the jinchūriki of other villages may be affected. Under such a shame and humiliation, if the Third Mizukage did not lose his memory and still used the Tailed Beast Tama mindless land-washing tactic to deal with Uzushio Village where Shirataki's body was in charge, it would only mean that his mind was abnormal. And as the leader of Kirigakure Village, could the Third Mizukage's mind be abnormal?

"Although I can't say why." Thinking of the several sieges launched by the Mist Ninja against Uzushio Village in the past two days, Shadow Clone No. 1 had a look of uncertainty on his face, and said slowly, "But I always feel that since the Sixth After the death of the tail jinchuriki, Kirigakure's offensive seemed to be as usual and did not become more intense. "

"At the same time, they have no intention of withdrawing their troops. Fighting and not fighting, leaving and not leaving, Kirigakure seems to be waiting for something."

"I don't think there is any other reason for Kirigakure's offensive style besides waiting for the three-tailed Jinchūriki to arrive on the battlefield."

After saying that, Shadow Clone No. 1 looked at Shadow Clone No. 2. After being silent for a while, he managed to hold back a few words, "Maybe, the Third Mizukage's brain is really not normal?"

"Besides, weren't you the one who suggested blowing up the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki? What's the point of what you're saying now? Don't tell me, you were just hot-headed at the time."

"What's yours and mine? Aren't you just me? Aren't I just you? My hot head means you are also hot!"

"It is our habit to take all possibilities into consideration when performing missions. Although it was my suggestion to kill the Six-Tails Jinchuuriki, it does not mean that the result will have no negative impact at all." Faced with a Shadow Clone No. 1 had an expression on his face that said "Are you kidding me?" Shadow Clone No. 2 was not moved at all and just explained calmly.

Then, without waiting for Shadow Clone No. 1 to comment on this, Shadow Clone No. 2 quickly passed over this topic and turned to the matter of the main body. "By the way, what do you think of the current situation of the main body in Uzushio Village?" ?”

"Anyway, it should be better than us." Shadow Clone No. 1 replied without thinking. After saying this, he seemed to feel that it was not enough. He added with a smile, "After all, he was the one who transferred the Tailed Beast Jade. As long as the Uzumaki clan is not a bunch of blind people, they should be able to see this."

"He is probably enjoying the treatment of a hero right now, enjoying hot and spicy food all day long, right?" Although he said sarcastic words, the face of Shadow Clone No. 1 did not look dissatisfied. Feeling that the situation on both sides is unequal, what he wanted to express seemed more like a joke.

Feeling the emotion of Shadow Clone No. 1, Shadow Clone No. 2 couldn't help but smile, obviously agreeing with Shadow Clone No. 1's statement. However, when he thought of the special situations he noticed when he routinely observed the scenes inside Uzushio Village, Shadow Branch No. 2 was not feeling relaxed physically and mentally.

While the two shadow clones were deep in thought, recalling the unusual scenes they had seen in the past few days, at the same time, something unknown was happening in the Kirigakure camp.

This was an exchange, or a liaison, and the place was within the Mizukage tent. The ninjas had gathered there the day before, but now there was no one in the room. The Third Mizukage Shigetsuki was still sitting in the main seat. He put his hands on his temples and tilted his head slightly, with his eyes slightly closed as if he was taking a nap.

His expression looked very relaxed, as if he was resting here, but if you look closely, you will find that his other hand has inadvertently clenched his fist slightly, and it is obvious that he is not calm inside.

"Why aren't you here yet?" What crossed my mind was a slightly complaining sentence, filled with a little bit of anger. Shuangyue is waiting for someone, a man named Jue, who is also the messenger between him and another existence.

Although the curtain at the entrance of the camp was closed, and there were many mist ninjas guarding the place not far from the door, Shuangyue had no intention of changing all this, nor was she worried at all that the messenger named Jue would not be able to get in.

The many contacts he had made, and the scenes he had witnessed with his own eyes, made Shuangyue very confident in Zetsu's stealth ability. And the facts proved that Shuang Yue was never disappointed. He just came a little late.

"Hello, Shuangyue." A cheerful tone suddenly sounded in his ears, and Shuangyue opened his eyes and looked forward. However, in the center of the big tent, a young man with short green hair, naked body, sickly pale skin, and a rather playful expression appeared there at some unknown time.
