Chapter 31: The Rebellion of the Hidden Mist Village Begins! The Threat of Obito!
Obito no longer concerned himself with Orochimaru’s affairs.
The plan he had long devised to destroy the Hidden Mist Village was finally underway.
After Mei Terumi’s disappearance, the Hozuki Clan quickly rallied Mei’s family to join forces in launching a rebellion.
The reason lay in the unique position of the Hozuki Clan within the Hidden Mist Village.
Since the Second Mizukage, Gengetsu Hozuki, ascended to power, followed by his disciple as the Third Mizukage, the Hozuki Clan had achieved supreme status in the village.
However, when Yagura became the Fourth Mizukage, he began targeting the Hozuki Clan, eventually implicating all bloodline limit ninjas.
This caused a significant decline in the Hozuki Clan’s power and influence.
Originally, the Hozuki Clan intended to support Mei Terumi’s rise to the Mizukage position to reclaim their former glory.
But unexpectedly, the Fourth Mizukage had Mei assassinated.
This act completely enraged the Hozuki Clan.
Mei’s family, already furious, immediately aligned with them.
Adding to this was the brainless Taketori Clan.
With the three major clans joining forces, all those in the Hidden Mist Village who supported bloodline limit ninjas rallied under their command.
The rebellion had begun!
Obito had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Thus, he immediately had Yagura issue a ruthless order.
"Kill all the rebels!"
In an instant, the Hidden Mist Village descended into war.
When Mei Terumi returned to the village, she was greeted by an unimaginably horrific scene.
The elite ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village were engaged in a frenzied slaughter.
"Kill!!"
"Slaughter those bloodline limit ninjas!"
"Kill the Hozuki Clan!"
"Bastards, how dare you defy us? Kill them!"
"Hahaha, this is war! Kill, Taketori Clan children!"
Bloodthirsty!
Insanity!
Carnage!
People were dying or severely injured every moment.
The once dense mist of the Hidden Mist Village seemed to have turned blood-red.
"Damn it!!!"
Seeing this, Mei Terumi’s eyes turned bloodshot.
This was a civil war!
Every ninja who died had been nurtured at great cost by the Hidden Mist Village!
Even many elite ninjas had perished!
This was practically driving the Hidden Mist Village to extinction!
"Yagura! I’ll kill you!!!"
Mei Terumi was completely enraged.
She never imagined Yagura would be so insane as to disregard the survival of the Hidden Mist Village.
At this moment, a killing intent toward Yagura surged in her heart.
"Whether you're being controlled or acting on your own, you’re dead!"
With her heart burning with rage, Mei Terumi rushed into the Hidden Mist Village.
"Water Style: Water Dragon Jutsu!"
Boom!!!
Mei Terumi opened her mouth and unleashed an astonishing display of her terrifying ninjutsu talent.
The colossal water dragon engulfed half the battlefield, sweeping countless people into its torrent.
The tremendous impact interrupted all the battles!
She then urgently roared, "I am Mei Terumi! Stop fighting!"
Swoosh!
Instantly, all eyes on the battlefield turned toward her.
Mei Terumi’s voice cracked with anger as she shouted:
"Look at what you’re doing! Do you want to see the Hidden Mist Village utterly destroyed?"
The combatants glanced at the fallen friends and foes around them, at the corpses littering the ground, the rivers of blood flowing everywhere!
The stench of blood in the air was so overwhelming it made people nauseous!
Ugh~
Ugh~
Ugh~
Sounds of vomiting echoed across the battlefield.
Not even the Third Shinobi World War had been this brutal for the Hidden Mist Village.
Everyone had gone mad!
They collapsed to the ground, powerless!
"What are we doing?"
"Oh my god!"
"Damn it, the village is finished!"
In the brief span of the battle, the Hidden Mist Village had lost over a thousand ninjas, and these were all battle-hardened warriors!
Countless others were seriously injured.
This had nearly halved the combat strength of the Hidden Mist Village!
The sheer cost of this madness brought everyone back to their senses.
If the village was destroyed, what good would winning this conflict do?
Clang—
Clang—
Cling, clang, clang—
One by one, people dropped their kunai, triggering a chain reaction, and soon, many others began discarding their weapons.
Even those with deep-seated hatred, who wanted nothing more than to kill, dared not risk provoking the crowd.
This sudden war was over!
But Mei Terumi’s fury was far from extinguished.
Someone had to pay the price!
"Yagura, come out here!"
Mei Terumi shouted toward the Mizukage’s office.
Yagura slowly emerged, stepping in front of Mei Terumi under the watchful eyes of all.
Despite his short stature, this figure already had grandchildren, so Mei Terumi didn’t dare underestimate him.
"Look at what you’ve done!"
Mei Terumi growled in anger.
Yagura looked at her expressionlessly, then let out a faint smile.
Boom!!!
Mei Terumi felt as if her head was about to explode.
The Hidden Mist Village had suffered enormous losses, and Yagura, the mastermind behind it all, was smiling?!
How dare you smile?!
I’ll kill him!!! I’ll kill him with my own hands!!!
Mei Terumi’s mind screamed in rage.
But the pain she had just endured from Ishihara’s attack forced her to restrain herself and not act recklessly.
"Who are you really?!"
Mei Terumi spat out each word through gritted teeth, glaring at him.
"You should be asking what I want."
Obito, controlling Yagura, whispered.
Only the two of them could hear his voice.
Mei Terumi glared at him, her eyes blazing with fury.
Yagura coldly and deliberately enunciated, "Exterminate the Hozuki Clan, or the war continues!"
"You!!!"
Mei Terumi snarled through clenched teeth, "Do you really think you can still command them?"
Yagura sneered, "Don’t forget, I’m the Three-Tails Jinchuriki. If I fully transform into the tailed beast here, what do you think will happen?"
Mei Terumi’s pupils contracted, and she shivered uncontrollably.
The village’s ninjas had just fought, exhausting much of their chakra, with many injured.
If the Three-Tails were to appear now, it would be a catastrophe!
"So, tell me your choice, Mei Terumi!"
