Chapter 668: Settlement of Metkai’s Life Mission
In the conference room, Konoha ninjas and Ninja ninjas each sat on half of the conference table.
Kakuzu didn't provoke, just looked at Orochimaru quietly.
Although they were dissatisfied with Konoha's stupid demands last time, they were still on the weak side overall.
If Konoha wants to use force to suppress others, they will not be afraid. If Konoha is willing to have a good conversation, they will not deliberately look for trouble.
"Our Sandaime admires the strength of the leader of the noble sect, Soyousuke, and wants to have a battle between ninjas. After this battle, no matter what the outcome of the battle, Shimura Danzo's case will be exposed." Orochimaru said. said.
"Huh?" Jiaodu showed a surprised expression.
No matter what grudge or grudge, just keep an eye on Sosuke, right? The duel is here.
Kakuzu couldn't figure out what Konoha was doing for a while, and Kage personally went into battle to challenge him.
Lao Zi also looked surprised and a little confused.
This is the first time in his life that he has seen such a solution to a conflict, with the leaders of both sides facing off to resolve the conflict.
The Strongest Ninja Village is unexpectedly simple.
Orochimaru looked indifferent, and the reaction of the Ninja ninja was within his expectation, because even he himself was surprised when he heard Sarutobi Hiruzen's request.
Everyone knows that Kage is very powerful, but in addition to his strength, Kage is also the leader of the Ninja Village, carrying the entire Ninja Village on his shoulders, so unless there are special circumstances, he will sit behind the Ninja Village.
The matter of the Ninja Sect is not small, but it is not big either.
In Orochimaru's opinion, sending a larger ninja force can solve the Ninja sect without the need for the Hokage to fight in person.
But his opinion was useless. Since Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to do this, he only had to carry out the mission.
Nagato's expression was subtle and his lips were tightly pursed.
He didn't want to come over at first, because he would be a little nervous knowing Mu Yue's true identity, but Kakuzu said it would be better if he was here, so he came over.
"What do you think of this?" Orochimaru asked.
"I have to ask the leader for instructions." Kakuzu pondered for a moment and said.
Soyousuke gave him the right, but this request involved Soyousuke himself, so he could not make a hasty decision.
You can refuse suicide without even thinking about it, but in a one-on-one fight, Kakuzu feels like you can't tell who will suffer.
After all, Soyousuke is so confident in his own strength.
"Nagato, come with me." Kakuzu stood up and called to Nagato.
Nagato nodded and left the conference room with Kakuzu and went to Soyousuke's office.
Walking to the wooden door of the office, Kado knocked on the door without haste, and only entered after getting Soyousuke's approval.
"What's wrong? What's the matter?" Mu Yue put down her pen and raised her head and asked.
"Konoha and the others have given new conditions, saying that as long as you fight the Third Hokage, no matter what the outcome is, Shimura Danzo's matter will be over." Kakuzu concluded.
"You are so hated that the Third Hokage personally wanted to kill you." Kakuzu sighed.
What admiration for strength? This is not an obvious threat to commit suicide but failed, so he just rolled up his sleeves and wanted to fight.
"How should I reply to Konoha, agree or reject?"
"Agree to their request." Mu Yue replied.
He was the newly separated shadow clone after the meeting of the main body, so he had known about this matter for a long time and had already thought of a way to deal with it.
A promise must be made, Sarutobi Hiruzen has made up his mind, if he is not satisfied, who knows what new ideas will come up in his mind.
Mu Yue wanted to save some face for Sarutobi Hiruzen, but he tried to persuade him, but Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't listen, so there was nothing he could do.
"You decided so quickly. Honestly, how much of your strength did you use when you fought me?" Kakuzu couldn't help but ask.
He knew very well that Soyousuke was not a reckless person. Since he agreed, he must have felt that his life was guaranteed and he could even win.
"If you want to calculate based on my current strength, it would be less than 20%." Mu Yue thought for a while and said.
When he fought in Kakuzu, his chakra amount was just over 100,000, but now his chakra amount has exceeded two million, and he also has a bunch of highly proficient and powerful skills.
"Less than 20%?!" Jiao Du's mouth twitched. Less than 20%, a fire escape killed four of his lives in seconds.
Kakuzu was completely relieved, and when Sosuke was offended, Sarutobi Hiruzen was able to kick the iron plate.
After returning to the conference room, Kakuzu gave a crisp reply: "Our leader also admires the Third Hokage very much and wants to fight with him."
At this point, the negotiation has come to an end. Orochimaru and the others also need to contact Konoha to report the progress and wait for further instructions.
Although the conditions are certain, their mission is not completed until the details are finalized, such as the location of the battle.
After the meeting, Nagato returned to Scorpion's laboratory.
"Since your ninja sect is almost finished, why don't we discuss it and I will help you assassinate some Konoha jounin. You can release me early. Anyway, the remaining sentence is not much." Seeing Nagato coming back, Xia put down his hand. Tool said.
His original sentence was ten years, but due to his prosthetic technology and good behavior, he now has just over a year left in his sentence.
"Who told you that our Ninja Sect would be doomed?" Nagato asked seriously.
"It's almost time to start a war with Konoha and it's not over yet?" Xie asked rhetorically.
"You may not know how strong Konoha is. Even Sunagakure, who is also one of the five great ninja villages, was defeated steadily in the war with Konoha. You, a small force with only a few hundred ninjas, can stop Konoha. ? There is a limit to innocence."
"The best outcome for you is that everyone goes their separate ways. Since there are few people anyway, Konoha shouldn't waste a lot of energy searching for you all over the ninja world."
Nagato shook his head and put his hand on Xia's shoulder, "Don't worry, it will be fine if Mr. Soyousuke is here."
Although Xia didn't want to be released early and run away, Nagato could tell that Xia was worried.
Their parents both died at the hands of Konoha ninjas, but there were some differences. Scorpion's parents were killed by Konoha ninjas on the battlefield.
Therefore, it is normal for Scorpion to have a certain shadow on the war with Konoha ninjas.
"Worried? I'm only worried about whether Soyousuke has left a hidden sealing technique on my body." Scorpion denied.
Because of his better performance and the need to conduct experiments, Soyousuke released the sealing technique on him.
However, Soyousuke's sealing skills are too advanced, and Scorpion doesn't know if Soyousuke has completely lifted the seal.
Seeing that Xia was still adamant, Nagato didn't say much. He was two months older than Xia, so he should give in.
...Konoha, the land of the Uchiha clan.
After dinner, Shisui went directly to Uchiha Fugaku's house.
In the past few days, he had been thinking about how to better complete the tasks assigned to him by Mu Yue.
He is not like Obito and has few friends in the Uchiha clan, but Shisui knows not many Uchiha people who can meet Muyue's requirements.
Mu Yue is an Uchiha ninja who needs to be able to do advanced tasks.
Logically speaking, Uchiha Fugaku, as the leader of the Uchiha clan, naturally knows all about the ninjas in the clan.
However, in Shisui's view, Uchiha Fugaku also belongs to the group of Uchiha who don't care much about foreigners. Directly referring to Uchiha Fugaku's suggestions may cause problems, so Shisui thought of a supporting plan before going to Fugaku.
When Shisui arrived, Uchiha Fugaku and his family had just finished their meal, and the whole family was chatting in the yard.
Seeing Shisui's arrival, Uchiha Fugaku had a smile on his face.
"Brother Shisui, good evening." Itachi Uchiha also took the initiative to greet Shisui.
"Well, good evening." Shisui responded with a smile, then looked at Uchiha Fugaku and asked:
"Uncle Fugaku, is it convenient for you now? I have something to do here."
Uchiha Fugaku nodded and took Shisui to the study.
"It's like this. There have been a lot of high-quality commissions in the village recently, and some ninjas were lost in the war. Teacher Mu Yue came up with an idea..." Shisui repeated Mu Yue's words to Uchiha Fugaku.
Even if Shisui didn't find someone with a personality that suited Uchiha's needs, he would still have to find Uchiha Fugaku.
Uchiha Fugaku is the captain of the police force. If he wants to mobilize a large number of police force Jonin, he must discuss it with Uchiha Fugaku first, both emotionally and rationally.
"Something is difficult to handle." Uchiha Fugaku said with a troubled expression on his face.
"Most of the powerful tribesmen hold important positions in the police department. If they are suddenly asked to give up their current positions to perform tasks, I am afraid most people will not be happy." Uchiha Fugaku explained.
Although he didn't think it was important to separate the police department from the Uchiha, but if he really wanted to stand, he would definitely stand on Shisui's side.
With Shisui's ability, no surprise, Shisui will be the new leader of the Uchiha clan in the future. If he doesn't let Shisui express his thoughts now, he may become more radical in the future. At least he still helps to keep an eye on him.
"The idea of Mu Yue's assistant is beneficial to the village and Uchiha, but the implementation of reforms is already forcible. If the clan's jounin gives up his position, the clan's opposition will be loud."
If Shisui hadn't shown great strength and won the bet, it would have been difficult for the reform of the police force to be passed at the clan meeting.
"Then we won't remove them from their original positions, but just temporarily leave their posts for a few years for training." Shisui began to express his thoughts.
He had already considered Uchiha Fugaku's concerns and thought of a way to deal with them.
Before Hiruzen Sarutobi agreed to reform the police force, Uchiha couldn't get rid of the police force.
Because this was an order from the Second Hokage, the Uchiha clan was solely responsible for the police force.
In other words, all positions in the police force must be filled by Uchiha ninjas, and the police force, as a large department, requires a large number of manpower.
Even if some Uchiha didn't want to serve in the police force at the beginning, they still had to go in and fill their positions.
It's just that Uchiha is now accustomed to the police force, and the police force has great power in name, which has led to the current situation.
Shisui felt that by giving some people the opportunity to do high-quality commissions, they might not want to return to the police force in a few years.
Performing tasks is more profitable than receiving a death salary in the police force. The commission fee for doing an A-level task is much higher than that of the police force in a month.
"In addition, we can hold activities. Obito and I will preach the benefits of going out to perform tasks for increasing our strength." Shisui continued.
As an Uchiha, Shisui felt that traditional Uchiha was easy to understand.
In fact, there are two aspects, one is to save face, and the other is to pursue strength.
If performing tasks to make money for Konoha was replaced by going out to gain experience in order to increase strength, Shisui imagined that many Uchiha would be interested.
"This is indeed very feasible."
Uchiha Fugaku thought about it carefully and had to admit that Shisui's idea caught the pain point of Uchiha ninja.
After the war, Shisui and Obito became more famous. They stood up together and said that performing entrusted tasks was more beneficial to their strength. All Uchiha would believe it.
It is true that neither Shisui nor Obito joined the police force, they have always been on entrusted tasks.
"In addition to some information about the jounin of the clan, I also need to trouble you to distribute this questionnaire to all Uchiha ninjas." Shisui took out a paper he wrote and put it on the table.
This is his supplementary plan. Based on Uchiha Fugaku's information and the Uchiha's answers to various questions, he will make a comprehensive evaluation and finally select the suitable candidate.
"It's really shameful. Shisui, you can think so much about your family besides practicing." Uchiha Fugaku couldn't help but admire.
This is why Uchiha Fugaku sometimes supports Shisui even though he is not optimistic about his ideas. Shisui sincerely wants to make Uchiha better and has nothing to do with personal interests.
"It's a pity that the last battle was too sudden and intense. Otherwise, we could have brought Itachi over and let him see your performance on the battlefield."
Shisui frowned slightly.
He didn't understand what Uchiha Fugaku was thinking. Itachi was only a few years old. Even if Uchiha Fugaku protected Itachi and didn't let anything happen to Itachi, the cruelty of the war might leave an unpredictable impact on Itachi.
However, Uchiha Fugaku was Itachi's father after all. Shisui didn't say much, but silently changed his schedule and stayed with Itachi in the yard for a while after finishing his conversation with Uchiha Fugaku.
Shisui had silently given Uchiha Fugaku an unreliable evaluation of his parenting ability.
He even wondered whether the reason why Itachi in later generations was so extreme that he exterminated the clan was because Uchiha Fugaku gave Itachi too many psychological shadows, which led to character problems.
Shisui decided to observe in detail. If Uchiha Fugaku acted like a monster again, he would step up his intervention to prevent Itachi from being led astray by Uchiha Fugaku.
Shisui, who left Uchiha Fugaku's house, did not go home. Instead, he went to Mu Yue to report on the progress of the mission and asked Mu Yue to help check for omissions and fill in the gaps.
"Well done. Being able to think of this means you have made a lot of progress." Mu Yue was quite satisfied with Zhishui's performance.
Compared with before, Shisui's ideas are much more flexible now, and he knows better how to use the advantages he can use.
After receiving Mu Yue's affirmation, Zhishui became more confident.
He wants to keep his teacher, and he also wants to keep his family.
After Zhishui left, Mu Yue continued to study breathing techniques, until when he was about to go to bed, a message suddenly popped up on the system.
[Disciple Metkai’s strength has increased, his reputation has risen, and he has walked a certain distance on the road to becoming the strongest in physical arts. He has received progress rewards—a moderate improvement in physical fitness, optional extraction of scroll fragments·S+ (mastery level), and improved physical skills perception]
Here comes the third extraction fragment.
PS: Come up with a cool ability, preferably one from a widely circulated work, so that I don’t have to choose another one from Pokémon ()
