章節 50: Chapter 48: Advance, Master Genshi!
Chapter 48: Advance, Master Genshi!
"We must inform Kaguya Shika of this intelligence immediately and join forces to subdue the Fourth Mizukage!"
"Not to mention deal with the Uchiha Itachi lurking in the shadows!"
After uncovering the truth, Genshi quickly made his decision. Further delays would only lead to more unnecessary deaths—without swift action, how could they possibly counter Uchiha Itachi?
"Yes, sir!"
At Genshi's command, the group sprang into action.
Having confirmed that the Fourth Mizukage had fallen under Uchiha Itachi's control and turned into an enemy, the course of action was clear.
A large force mobilized, directing their efforts against Yagura's loyalist faction.
---
"Ha ha ha!"
"Genshi, you truly are a wise man—able to recognize the correct path in an instant!"
"Rest assured, once I seize control and become the Fifth Mizukage, you will be honored as the Supreme Elder, above all others!"
Kaguya Shika's laughter echoed through the battlefield, his tone dripping with overconfidence as he casually promised rewards to Genshi.
"..."
Genshi stared at him, utterly speechless. Were it not for his self-restraint, he might have cursed the man out on the spot.
What an idiot.
---
"The Kaguya clan leader is incredible—he's managed to win over even Genshi-sama!"
"No wonder we admire him. Truly a man worthy of becoming Mizukage!"
"Look! Even the great Genshi stands with him. Victory is certain. Yagura has no chance now—he should just surrender!"
As news of Genshi's involvement spread, whispers and shouts erupted among the allied forces.
Many began to believe that with Genshi seemingly aligned with Kaguya Shika, the tide had decisively turned in their favor.
To them, it was no longer a rebellion—it was a revolution.
---
"Ha! So, Genshi, this is the choice you've made?"
Yagura's cold voice cut through the noise, his sharp gaze locking onto the elder.
"Fourth Mizukage—or rather, Uchiha Itachi controlling the Fourth Mizukage!" Genshi declared.
"Your schemes won't succeed as long as I'm here!"
Genshi's words, brimming with righteous indignation, drew gasps from the crowd.
"What? The Fourth Mizukage is being controlled?"
"Impossible!"
"Is this just an excuse Genshi made up to justify opposing Yagura?"
Doubt and suspicion rippled through the ranks.
"Months ago, during a confrontation with Uchiha Itachi and Momochi Zabuza, the Fourth Mizukage was gravely injured," Genshi explained.
"It was during that moment of weakness that Uchiha Itachi used the Mangekyō Sharingan to place Yagura under his control!"
Genshi's words carried a quiet confidence that began to sway the skeptical crowd.
---
For those familiar with the Uchiha clan's terrifying power, the pieces started to fall into place.
The erratic behavior of the Mizukage, the escalating violence, and the bloody mist policies—it all traced back to Itachi's manipulation.
Realizing the true extent of their plight, many began to regret their actions.
---
The battlefield was a harrowing sight. The once-proud ninja of Kirigakure now lay scattered, their bodies broken and bloodied.
"What have we done…"
The carnage forced some to confront the reality of their actions. Swords fell from trembling hands, and the fires of rage gave way to tears of anguish.
The magnitude of the conflict, and the lives it had claimed, brought a grim silence to those who could still stand.
---
"Heh…"
"You've uncovered the truth, Genshi. But what now?"
Yagura's mocking voice drew the crowd's attention back to him.
"Do you honestly believe you can stop me—or Uchiha Itachi?"
Despite Genshi's revelations, Yagura's demeanor remained unshaken, his words dripping with scorn.
Obito, observing from the shadows, smirked. Perfect. Let them destroy themselves further.
---
Genshi, however, did not flinch.
"I've seen enough."
Calmly discarding his walking staff, he removed his cloak.
Gasps rippled through the onlookers. Beneath the frail exterior of an old man lay a physique chiseled like a warrior's—a stark contrast to his unassuming appearance.
Cracking his neck and loosening his joints, Genshi took a step forward, his eyes blazing with determination.
"Let this old man remind you why they call me the Grandmaster of the Mist!"
In an instant, Genshi vanished, his speed surpassing anything the crowd could track.
---
In the blink of an eye, Genshi appeared before Yagura, unleashing a powerful kick aimed at the Mizukage's midsection.
The force of the blow sent Yagura hurtling through the air, crashing into the walls of the Mizukage Tower. The impact echoed across the battlefield.
---
"Cough, cough…"
Yagura staggered to his feet, blood staining his lips.
"Not bad… for an old man."
His gaze hardened as he prepared to retaliate.
---
"Enough talk!"
"This is the young generation's world now," Genshi replied, exhaling deeply.
"Let me show you one last lesson before I step aside."
Though his voice was steady, Genshi's inner thoughts betrayed his unease.
Even with a surprise attack, I barely made a dent. Breaking through Yagura's defenses won't be easy.
---
The final clash between the elder master and the controlled Mizukage was about to begin. Would Genshi's gamble succeed, or would Kirigakure face complete annihilation?
