The Hidden Mist, using their familiarity with the terrain, can gradually disperse your forces.
Slow down your offensive and provide your comrades in the rear with more enemy intelligence.
Because the Uchiha clan had done nothing since their arrival, the proud Yukito became dissatisfied.
Seeing this, Itachi and Shisui decided to go out and gather information about Kirigakure.
Kawasaki had not yet arrived at Kirigakure, and Itachi and Shisui were still unclear about the situation there.
Only Uchiha Yaoyue remained at the base.
Uchiha Yaoyue is Qiming's older brother, and he was already a Jonin with three tomoe many years ago.
Aside from being somewhat stubborn and unrestrained, his strength is exceptionally formidable. 950
He excels in swordsmanship, lightning release, and fire release, but his illusion techniques are slightly inferior.
Kawasaki is currently focusing on developing its next key talent.
Because he hadn't used the Uchiha clan much lately, Yugito's tone sounded somewhat arrogant.
Yaoyue is a bit stubborn. When she heard Yukito say something she didn't like, she started arguing with her.
As allies, they were able to restrain themselves, except that Yaoyue and Yukito didn't quite like each other.
Therefore, when Yaoyue saw Yugito return covered in blood, she sneered from the side.
"Oh dear, how did you end up in such a sorry state, covered in blood?"
Yaoyue is straightforward and outspoken, and not very good at being sarcastic or sarcastic.
Yuki glanced at him sideways: "It's better than you hiding in the base all day, isn't it?"
"I'm just afraid that one day you'll step into a trap, and don't expect us to come and get you out."
Yaoyue put his hands behind his head; he didn't really want to stay cooped up there all the time.
However, he was impatient, and Itachi and Shisui were both worried about letting him go out to gather intelligence.
He's been itching to use his hands lately.
However, the clan leader has declared that this operation must be carried out under the command of Itachi and Shisui.
Yaoyue could only suppress her dissatisfaction and stay in the base day after day.
At this moment, Yugito's mind was filled with thoughts of attacking the next island.
He didn't pay much attention to Yaoyue's words: "Don't worry, those days won't come."
...
Near the border of the Land of Water.
call!
Kawasaki ended his illusionary body technique and stretched his limbs.
"Lord Feipu, have you rested enough? We're still a dozen minutes away from our destination."
Qing was skillfully maneuvering the ship's direction.
He caught a glimpse of the waterfall getting up and greeted it.
On the distant horizon, the black line-like outline was already clearly visible; at the current speed, we would arrive soon.
Feipu nodded and said, "That's enough."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the boat approached the shore.
Chojuro put away the flying boat.
Feipu looked at the flying boat with great interest: "Do you have any extra flying boats like this?"
Qing paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "This thing isn't complicated to make."
Then, he took the scroll from Chojuro and handed it to Feipu.
"If you like it, Lord Feipu, then this is a gift for you."
The waterfall accepted it without hesitation, naturally and effortlessly.
"Not bad, not bad, I'll take this little thing."
Aomi Hippu readily accepted, and a smile even appeared on her face.
Qing led the waterfall deep into the inland waters.
Kawasaki had visited the Land of Water a few years ago and was quite familiar with it.
At least the general direction won't go wrong.
Qing noticed the waterfall's expression, which was both unfamiliar and somewhat familiar, and became even more certain that the waterfall had been away from the Water Kingdom for some time.
Throughout the journey, Qing continuously used the communication bird to maintain contact with the inside of Mist Village.
Kawasaki was unaware of this, and many small islands had already fallen into the hands of Kumogakure.
But those small islands were at best outposts and of little value to the Hidden Cloud Village.
Therefore, it was something Kawasaki had anticipated that the Cloud Village would disperse its forces.
The fact that the Cloud Village has been advancing so slowly despite the long battle is likely because the Raikage has not yet arrived.
The vanguard of the Cloud Village was composed entirely of elite troops, with the aim of capturing the beachhead.
The subsequent army was unable to follow up quickly.
Although Kumogakure had figured out Kirigakure's strength, Mei Terumi had not yet shown herself, so Kumogakure did not dare to make any rash moves.
It was about two days later that Kawasaki saw Mei Terumi again.
when1060928735
Mei Terumi was still wearing that blue strapless dress with a white belt around her waist, and her brown curly hair concealed a pair of emerald green eyes.
Perhaps due to her recent busy schedule, Mei Terumi looked somewhat tired.
"Ding..."
The sound that rang in his ears surprised Kawasaki, but he planned to investigate it later.
"This must be Mr. Waterfall. I am Mei Terumi."
When Mei Terumi is serious, she appears very dignified and mature.
"I am Hikari from Akatsuki, and I am in charge of this anti-invasion operation."
Kawasaki, transformed into a waterfall, won over Mei Terumi's heart with just one sentence.
Resisting aggression is a good thing.
Terumi Mei nodded:
"We in Kirigakure don't know much about the Akatsuki organization. We were able to establish contact with your organization through introductions from others."
"How does your organization plan to complete this mission?"
Feipu spoke at a steady pace:
"Since this is our first collaboration, Lord Mizukage is unaware of our strength."
"But our organization is accustomed to doing things first and receiving payment later, so Lord Mizukage need not worry that we will not do our best."
Mei Terumi had previously communicated with Ao and learned that Feipu had promised to do the work first and then pay.
This is one of the reasons why she wanted to start this organization.
Of course, any organization that dares to do the work first and then collect payment demonstrates its strength.
In this world, double-crossing is commonplace, and the Akatsuki organization is clearly not afraid of defaulting on its debts.
The waterfall continued:
"When we discussed this with your subordinates before, we did not determine which method of cooperation to adopt."
"Our action strategies will differ depending on the method we choose."
Mei Terumi beckoned, and Ao immediately presented the map.
“Mr. Feipu, the third method you mentioned is to ensure that Yunyin will not dare to invade Wuyin again within five years.”
"I'd like to know, how will the Akatsuki ensure this? Will they send highly skilled individuals to guard the area, or are there other methods?"
Mei Terumi raised a question; in fact, she herself was unclear why the Uchiha clan would support the Akatsuki.
They even claimed that as long as the Akatsuki organization intervened, the war could be ended in a short time.
Mei Terumi, as the current Mizukage, desires nothing more than to end this war as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if the situation drags on, other ninja villages might also intervene.
Feipu's finger slid across the map, drawing a line at the forefront of Wuyin.
"The total strength of the Cloud Village is no more than 20,000, and the number of people dispatched will not exceed 8,000."
"This means that the scale of Cloud Village's offensive is limited."
"If they suffer heavy casualties, they won't dare to attack again! The more casualties they suffer, the less likely they are to start another war!"
The waterfall's words exuded an undeniable confidence.
The waterfall paused for a moment:
"As long as the Hidden Cloud Village doesn't withdraw its troops, our Akatsuki organization can continue the killing until they retreat, until they dare not offend us again for five years."
His words were filled with chilling murderous intent.
Mei Terumi, standing to the side, felt a glimmer of light in her heart; the Akatsuki's powerful confidence intimidated her.
If this can prevent the Hidden Cloud Village from causing further trouble for five years, the loss to the Hidden Cloud Village will be enormous.
It will be difficult to recover within five years.
What kind of confidence does the Akatsuki organization have to make such a bold statement?
Terumi Mei thought briefly.
"Then let's choose the third option."
