Kapitel 69: Chapter 68 » The Three Legendary Sannin of Konoha Gather! An Angry Mikoto: Why Is It Always Me?
Mikoto exited the room, her eyes reddened. She made her way to the bathroom, her sorrowful gaze meeting her reflection in the mirror. As she had done for days now, she began her ritual — rinsing her mouth to rid it of that detestable taste and changing her wet undergarments.
Moments later, Yusuke emerged from the room. Noticing her face etched with resentment and grievance, he arched an eyebrow.
"Well, Mikoto-chan, I can say this with certainty — you're definitely improving." He approached her in the bathroom, his light smile contrasting with her furious eyes, "It seems you're even starting to enjoy it at times, soaking my carpet while those sweet moans escape your lips..."
Mikoto hunched over the sink, her teeth clenched as she glared at him. If looks could kill, he'd be six feet under the ground already.
"That's the look I adore." He savored the sight of her angry phoenix eyes peering through her disheveled hair.
His fascination stemmed from watching the shifts in her expression, the way she loathed yet relished each encounter. Strange as it was — even to him, a soul from Earth — it only heightened his excitement.
"Why... why is it always me..." Mikoto bit her lip, her tear-filled eyes brimming with deep resentment.
"Because you're gentle." Yusuke whispered softly, his voice reminiscent of a little devil in her ear, "You're meticulous... diligent... devoted. You persist with all your might until you achieve my goals..."
Mikoto's gentle nature persisted, even in captivity. This aspect of her character remained largely unchanged.
As for Kushina, if she truly went wild, it would be counterproductive. Yusuke had better methods to handle her.
For now, he was extracting additional points from Mikoto. Over the past few days, he had harvested nearly 200,000 Villain Points from her. The more conservative and gentle a woman, the more Villain Points could be reaped.
Mikoto seethed with anger but dared not voice her fury.
"Report!" A voice called from outside the door.
Yusuke heard the voice and looked at her.
"See you later, Mikoto-chan." He extended his index finger, lightly poking the small of her back, and…
"HM~" Mikoto gritted her teeth, unable to suppress an involuntary moan.
Worse still, the urge she had been fighting down there suddenly overwhelmed her senses.
Drip! Drip! Drip!
Mikoto gazed at Yusuke's victorious smile, feeling tears well up once again — tears of perpetual defeat.
Without another word, he left her in the bathroom and proceeded to another room.
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
In the meeting hall.
"Captain Yusuke! There have already been three friction incidents on the border between the Land of Water and the Land of Lightning." Mangetsu reported quickly, "The contact between both sides has resulted in quite a few casualties."
Yusuke narrowed his eyes. "Land of Lightning... Kumogakure. They dare to cause trouble at a time like this. It seems they've reached some kind of agreement with Konoha."
"Then... what should we do?" Mangetsu looked up and said, "Although we had dealt a major blow to Konohagakure, our foundation is still much weaker. If Konoha really allies with Kumo and surrounds us, we'll have to split our forces, and as a result... our attacking power will be greatly reduced."
"Moreover." He continued in a low voice, "Even if Lord Yusuke can descend upon one battlefield, the other battlefield will inevitably suffer fierce attacks from the enemy."
Yusuke stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking at Kiri, which was beginning to be full of vitality.
"Don't worry, Mangetsu. Your concerns are valid, but I have a plan. Here's what we'll do: Assemble an elite force of fifty jonin from our finest ranks. Draw from the ANBU, your clan, the Kaguya, Hoshikagi, and Karatachi families, as well as other prominent clans. Have them report to Blue Stone Plaza immediately. We'll show our enemies the true might of Kirigakure."
"Yes!" Mangetsu immediately accepted the order!
Then he leapt away, disappearing without a trace.
An hour later.
Yusuke stood at the Blue Stone Plaza, Mei by his side.
She had learned from Mangetsu about Kumo's potential alliance with Konoha.
"Hubby, don't worry. I can defend against their attacks on one battlefield myself!" Mei said softly, hoping to ease his burden.
"Worry?" Yusuke looked surprised. Then he smiled. "I'm not worried at all."
"Huh?" She blinked. "Then why did you look so gloomy just now, Hubby?"
His smile vanished. How could he not be gloomy?
He had just spent One Million Villain Points — collected from Mikoto and Kushina — on fifty bottles of Tier IV Physical Enhancement Potion. Each bottle cost 20,000 Villain Points!
In other words, all his efforts for the past half month had been transformed into practically nothing, with only a few points remaining.
It seemed he would need to collect more Villain Points from them in the future.
Soon, fifty elite jonin from various clans gathered at the Kiri ANBU's Blue Stone Plaza.
Yusuke wasted no words, getting straight to the point:
"From now on, you will be a loyal legion under my command, managed by Zabuza Momochi."
He then produced the fifty bottles of golden (Tier IV) physical enhancement potion. These elite jonin, upon consuming the potion, would significantly improve their strength in a short time.
They might even reach half-Kage strength like Mangetsu.
If Konohagakure truly allied with Kumogakure to attack Kirigakure, these fifty half-Kage level shinobi would teach the enemy the true meaning of fear!
A single half-Kage level ninja could easily take on thirty jonin. A legion of fifty? They could handle a thousand shinobi without breaking a sweat!
Let them come — they'll never leave!
Currently, Kiri's strength was divided into several tiers.
At the pinnacle stood Yusuke Shingetsu himself, his formidable power surpassing even Kage level!
Below him, only two possessed Kage-level strength: Kisame Hoshigaki and Yagura Karatachi. However, as Mizukage, Yagura was confined to the village.
The half-Kage tier included Mei, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Mangetsu, and others.
Beneath them were the elite jonin.
Though Kirigakure had claimed a great victory in the previous war with Konoha, that triumph relied on Yusuke's potions.
But now? With this legion of fifty half-Kage level ninja, the tables would turn completely!
Yusuke gazed at these shinobi, their eyes blazing with fanaticism.
Once their transformation was complete, they'd shock the entire ninja world!
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
At the entrance of Konohagakure.
"It really brings back memories... It's been a long time since I've been back."
At the end of the road, a white-haired middle-aged man gazed at the gates of the Leaf Village with a nostalgic expression.
Walking in his wooden sandals, he adjusted the large scroll on his back and approached the guard station ahead.
"You are... Is it... Lord Jiraiya?!" The ninja at the guard station exclaimed, his face filled with wild joy, "Lord Jiraiya is back! Lord Jiraiya is back!"
His excitement was palpable.
After all, the title of the Three Legendary Sannin, which had resounded throughout the Second Great Ninja War, still commanded great respect.
"Now, they're all back!" The ninja continued enthusiastically.
"All back?" Jiraiya inquired keenly.
"Yes!" The ninja, still in an excited state, replied, "Lady Tsunade returned an hour ago!"
"That Tsunade..." Jiraiya paused. "Where is she now?"
"She's already gone to see the Third Hokage!"
"Hmm." Jiraiya nodded.
Then, he set off towards the Hokage office building.
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
Inside the Hokage's office.
"What?! Master! What on earth is going on?! You couldn't even keep Kushina safe?! And Minato has been captured too?!" Tsunade exclaimed, her chest heaving with anger. She nearly fainted from the shock.
Having just returned to the village with Shizune, Tsunade had gone straight to the Hokage's office to meet Hiruzen. Upon hearing this explosive news, she could hardly believe her ears.
Jiraiya's disciple, Minato Namikaze, had been captured by Kirigakure. His fate — whether alive or dead — remained unknown. The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Kushina Uzumaki, was also in the Mist Village's clutches.
Tsunade marveled at how many bizarre events had unfolded during her absence from the village.
"Tsunade..." Hiruzen furrowed his brow and sighed, "Didn't I explain in my letter? The village is in an extremely dangerous situation. That's why you needed to return."
Tsunade glared at him: "So you've made a mess of the village, and now you're calling me back to fix it?"
Hiruzen coughed lightly, unable to save face.
At that moment, Jiraiya arrived at the Hokage's office.
After a brief greeting to Tsunade, there was no time for catching up. Hiruzen once again explained Konoha's dire predicament.
"What?! Minato and Kushina were captured by Yusuke Kamizuki?!" Jiraiya exclaimed, completely stunned.
This sudden turn of events left him momentarily unable to process the information.
"That Yusuke Kamizuki is incredibly powerful and possesses numerous techniques." Hiruzen said in a low voice, "Orochimaru once encountered him. The result? He fled with severe injuries!"
Upon hearing this, both Tsunade and Jiraiya's pupils constricted slightly. Orochimaru's strength was not at all inferior to theirs, yet he couldn't gain any advantage against this so-called Ice God?
"The village needs you." Hiruzen said softly.
"I understand." Tsunade's brow furrowed slightly as she turned her head and left the room.
Jiraiya looked at the Third Hokage, his own brow furrowing as well. Minato was not only his disciple but also the one he had placed his hopes on as the child of prophecy — the one who could change this ninja world.
"Get settled in, Jiraiya." Hiruzen sighed.
"Mm." Jiraiya nodded and left the room.
An hour later, Danzo entered the Hokage's office.
"Kumogakure has given their answer." He lowered his eyelids and handed Kumo's reply to Hiruzen.
After reading it, Hiruzen's face filled with anger.
"Kumo is kicking us while we're down! They actually want the Byakugan from the Hyuga clan? Their joining us in counterattacking the Mist Village is not impossible, but at what cost?"
The letter's contents were clear: Kumogakure might join in counterattacking Kirigakure, but they demanded the corpses of ten Hyuga clan members. Furthermore, Konoha had to launch an attack against Kiri first.
After the Mist Village's forces are deployed to the front lines, only then will the Cloud Village launch an attack against them.
"Preposterous! This is utterly preposterous!" Hiruzen was so angry his nostrils flared and his eyes bulged, "What if they don't send any ninja when the time comes? They're absolutely dreaming!"
Danzo, with a focused gaze, said: "Don't worry. I've already dispatched over 300 Root ninja, disguised as Kiri ninja. They're continuously harassing the border of the Land of Lightning. As soon as the battle begins, I'll have them massacre dozens of small towns on the edge of the Land of Lightning. I don't believe the Raikage will be able to sit still!"
A cold glint flashed in his eyes!
This was indeed a vicious plan! Moreover, given the Raikage's volatile temperament, he absolutely wouldn't stand by and do nothing. He would surely vent all his anger on Kirigakure.
Plus, at that time, most of Kiri's forces would be engaged on their side. The Raikage would have to be a fool to miss this perfect opportunity to ambush the Mist Village!
After pondering for a moment, Hiruzen frowned and said: "Those people in the towns... are innocent..."
"Innocent?" Danzo immediately waved his hand, interrupting Sarutobi. Then, he sneered, "Those people, to us in Konoha, are enemies. How can there be innocence in slaughtering enemies? Or do you want to wait until Kirigakure has killed all of our clan members?"
These words completely silenced Hiruzen.
"Fine! We'll do as you say! Right now, Tsunade and Jiraiya have also returned to the village. Having those two lead our forces will surely boost our morale! Begin preparations! Get ready to counterattack Kiri!"
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes! This time, they must deal a heavy blow to Kirigakure!
And take back everything they had lost!
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
In the following period, an eerie quiet settled over the entire ninja world.
All hidden villages sensed the tension — this was the calm before the storm. Once it erupted, it would surely rage with ferocity.
Land of Lightning, in Kumogakure.
"Lord Raikage, Konohagakure has sent the Hyuga clan members' corpses. They've also agreed to attack Kiri first." Reported a tanned woman to the Fourth Raikage, A, who sat at the table's head.
"Hahaha! Excellent!" 'A' burst into laughter, turning to Mabui beside him, "It seems Konoha is truly desperate! Perhaps we can use this battle to swallow up both the Leaf and Mist villages in one fell swoop!"
Kumogakure's territorial ambition had been a legacy since the First Raikage. During the Great Ninja Wars, they exploited their natural terrain to ambush other hidden villages — Kirigakure, Konohagakure, and Iwagakure. Save for Sunagakure, Kumo had clashed with nearly all of them.
The battles with Iwa proved most intense, claiming the Third Raikage's life. In that fateful encounter, Iwagakure deployed over ten thousand ninja, gradually wearing down the Third Raikage until he fell.
Kumogakure's ninja, naturally born with lightning affinity, held an innate advantage over Kirigakure's predominantly water-natured users. Consequently, in previous wars, they frequently targeted Kiri.
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
Time flew by. Another half month passed.
Dark clouds loomed over the ninja world, gathering to their fullest extent. It seemed to foretell an impending upheaval that would turn the ninja world upside down!
Kirigakure.
Yusuke stood silently on the rooftop of the ANBU headquarters building. Gazing at the ominous, heavy clouds in the sky, he murmured with a smirk:
"Soon, the entire ninja world will grovel at the feet of the Mist Village!"
