Chương 102: 100 confetti

Then, Mito stared at Yura and smiled subtly, "I wonder who spread the news that Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were about to have a great battle throughout the ninja world. This has disgusted those old guys from the Warring States period in Konoha. They haven't been eating well lately and are regretting that they even thought of forming Konoha."

"These ninja clans concluded that if Hashirama had died earlier, their clansmen would have been gradually wiped out in the subsequent Shinobi World Wars," Mito said wistfully.

"But the outcome of Konoha being conquered would have been even worse for them, so they would have had no choice but to bite the bullet and board Konoha's ship."

"They all hate this guy who spreads rumors with a passion; he's a treacherous schemer who deliberately instigated a ninja war."

"Who could it be?"

"It's so hard to guess!"

Mito glanced at Yura.

Jie Luo smiled faintly and said, "That is indeed me."

"..." Mito laughed, "I thought you'd try to make excuses."

Following the original historical trajectory, the ninja clans, immersed in a long period of peace, were unaware of this. By the time they realized it, the First Shinobi World War was already upon them. After such a great war, almost everyone would be wiped out, and they would barely be able to defend Konoha.

Now that they've realized this and made prior preparations, whether it's good or bad, Gero can't say for sure.

Moreover, Keira was very curious about who Konoha could seal the Nine-Tails, that troublesome creature, into now.

"So, which team are you going to join?" Jie Luo asked.

"Which team should I join..." Mito said, "None of them seem quite suitable for me. Can't we just start a new sealing barrier team?"

"The Eight Ninja Swordsmen are an option, but I'll have to wait until I take over," Yura said.

"You pick one," Mito said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter which team I choose."

"Mito, do you know medical ninjutsu?" Yura asked.

Medical ninjutsu is an indispensable part of the normal operation of the village. An excellent medical system will enhance the village's overall combat power. Without technology and personnel, building something from scratch would be a headache for not only Byakuren but also for Yura.

Mito shook her head and said, "I don't really know about that."

Tsunade truly has a natural healing physique.

Jieluo sighed and said, "You can go to the Second Division, the Strategic Support Team."

"They sound like they're really busy," Mito said.

"It's not as serious as you think." Yura looked at Mito and said, "When manpower is needed, you will be responsible for supporting the operations of teams other than the Second Division, or replenishing the personnel of other divisions who are injured or killed in battle. In terms of your role, you are equivalent to the Kirigakure Commando. You need to train the relevant skills of each team, and you are the head instructor of the Kirigakure ninja.

This means that you can place manpower in other teams at any time and extend your reach to the seven divisions. The benefits and prestige you gain are intangible, so you must work hard to build this up."

"Hiss..." Mito realized the importance of this position and said, "I understand. You truly live up to the ninja world's reputation for your cunning, Yura."

What kind of insidiousness is that?

I used all legitimate means.

Jieluo couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Hehe." Mito just laughed, a sweet laugh, and said, "However, she is indeed much more generous than Senju."

The head instructor?

Mito is full of energy.

"How so?" Jie Luo asked.

"That evil brat Tobirama Senju probably thinks I'm stupid," Mito said.

"Nominally, he'll give me the status of the matriarch of my clan, but the Senju clan is almost extinct, so the status of the matriarch is useless. In the village, as a Jinchūriki, I'll be feared and monitored. After the marriage, I'll probably be under house arrest and won't be able to do anything. I'll be like a canary trapped in a cage."

Yura glanced at Mito, who radiated youthful energy, and said, "Things are different now."

"Yes!" Mito's eyes shone as she looked down at Yura with a smile and said, "Thank you."

Jie Luo waved his hand and said, "Instead of thanking me, you should thank yourself for your choice."

They strolled across the bridge as if taking a leisurely walk, chatting and laughing along the way. The massive Water Shadow Fortress came into view in the distance. As they got closer, Mito said, "This place is really big, like a fortress."

"When it was built, the old man Bai Lian hadn't changed his pirate mindset yet. He still thought that fighting with ninjas on the ground was like a siege of a castle or fortress. He regrets it now."

"Why?" Mito asked.

"It looks pretty good."

"The war's function is basically no longer needed, and we've spent too much money," Jieluo said.

"I would regret it too," Mito chuckled.

Bringing Mito to the Mizukage's office, the old man, Byakuren, looked at Yura, who had returned, and then at Mito.

"Who is this...?"

Jieluo laughed and said, "Old man, she's here to join the village, bringing several hundred people with her, including Mito Uzumaki."

Upon hearing this, the old man Bailian's face clearly showed surprise. He looked at Mito and said, "Your granddaughter is Uzumaki-kun... When I was young, I had a lot of dealings with your grandfather."

"Lord Byakuren." Mito Daiki smiled gently and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you. My grandfather has told me about you before, the famous seaman, a powerful ninja who has fought countless battles."

"I'm afraid it won't be anything nice," Bai Lian said.

"You actually came here? Why didn't you go to Konoha?"

「我已经跟爷爷决裂。 」水户说道： 「爷爷打算将我嫁给忍界之神， 但我既不打算嫁给千手， 也不打算成为人柱力， 所以， 我将那个老头揍了一顿。 」 Bai Lian suddenly burst into laughter, "Excellent! Excellent! As expected of the princess of the Whirlpool! So bold!"

You're just gloating over the old man getting beaten up, aren't you?

Jie Luo stood by, arms crossed, watching.

When the laughter subsided, the old man with the white lotus began to ponder.

"Old man, you're not afraid that the God of the Ninja World will come looking for trouble, are you?" Jieluo said quietly.

The wolf glared fiercely at Jieluo, and Bailian said, "Don't provoke me, Jieluo." She then turned to Mito and asked, "What does your grandfather mean?"

"I carry the sealing techniques of the entire clan," Mito said.

Bai Lian took a soft breath and said, "You will take over the Whirlpool Clan in the future, right?"

"Of course!" Mito said confidently.

"Alright! At that time, Kirigakure will fully cooperate!" The Land of Whirlpools will be a natural bridgehead for Kirigakure to advance into the ninja world. If possible, it is natural to keep it firmly in our hands. Byakuren said, "Yura should have told you a lot about Kirigakure by now. What do you think? I won't treat you badly, Mito. If there's anything you want, just ask."

"The captain of the second division," Mito said bluntly.

Bai Lian nodded and said, "That's no problem, but the newly established rule is that becoming a captain requires challenging the previous captain, and I can't break it on my own."

"Old man," Jieluo said, "I think that as long as three or more captains agree, we can skip the challenge."

It wasn't that Yura didn't believe in Mito's fighting ability...

"Wait..." Mito looked at Byakuren and said, "Then let's take on the challenge."

Bai Lian nodded and looked at Jie Luo. It wasn't impossible to handle the challenge behind the scenes, as long as Jie Luo was willing to sacrifice his prestige in the village.

"Who do you choose to challenge, Mito?" Byakuren asked.

"Hattori Saizo!" Mito smiled. Having just arrived in the village, she needed to establish her authority, but choosing Gengetsu was not suitable for a newcomer. Saizo was much easier to control.

"Huh..." Bai Lian looked at Jie Luo.

Jieluo nodded and said, "Old man, don't underestimate Mito."

"Then let's decide on that." Bai Lian said decisively.
