The Kaguya Clan's territory is located on the outskirts of Kirigakure. As the strongest combat clan in the village, the Kaguya Clan's original territory is located in the most core area of the village.
But everything changed when Yagura ca to power and inexplicably began enforcing the [Bloody Mist Policy].
The Kaguya Clan had always been battle-crazed maniacs. They are hot-tempered and prone to violent clashes with other clans and Civilian Ninjas.
In the past, due to warti conditions and the influence of powerful clans, with several consecutive Mizukage hailing from clan backgrounds, Civilian Ninjas could only suppress their resentnt toward the Kaguya Clan.
However, after Yagura took office, he used various excuses to suppress the Ninja Clans, and the hot-tempered Kaguya Clan beca the primary target.
After several bloody conflicts, not only were the Kaguya Clan's privileges and high-ranking advisory positions revoked, but Yagura also forcibly relocated their clan's compound to the desolate outskirts of the village under the pretense of 'maintaining order'.
"Clan Head! We can't go on like this!"
Inside the Kaguya Clan's shrine, a secret clan eting was underway.
The Kaguya Clan, who had long been fed up with the Fourth Mizukage's oppressive policies, were filled with righteous indignation. The 'peace' markings on their foreheads twisted with fury.
"The Yuki Clan has already been wiped out!"
"If we just sit here and wait, our Kaguya Clan could be next!"
"Clan Head! Let's overthrow Yagura's tyranny!"
"That's right! All the major clans are on edge right now. If we, Kirigakure's strongest fighters, rise up, no clan will stand with Yagura!"
"That bastard Yagura doesn't even spare his own clan… he's already lost all support!"
"Clan Head! We support you as the Fifth Mizukage!"
Faced with the fervor of his clansn, the ambition of Kaguya Clan's head ignited like wildfire!
After all, Yagura's policies didn't even spare his own Karatachi Clan.
The Seven Ninja Swordsn of the Mist were either dead or defected. The only people Yagura had left were a few Anbu's Ninjas such as Suikazan Fuguki.
"Sigh… If possible, I would have preferred to wait until Kimimaro grew stronger." The Kaguya Clan's head sighed deeply, thinking of the child who had been imprisoned due to the overwhelming power of his Kekkei Genkai.
If they had waited a few more years, that child would have at least reached Elite Jonin… or possibly even Kage-level strength.
"Kimimaro?" The na made many clansn solemn.
Despite his young age, the power of Kimimaro's Shikotsumyaku was already greater than many of their veteran Jonin. However, Kimimaro was only seven years old, so his Kekkei Genkai's overwhelming strength ca with a severe genetic disease that frequently flared up, leaving him unable to fight… or even live normally.
Fearful of his power, the clansn treated him as nothing more than a weapon.
"Even without Kimimaro, we can still succeed!" A mber of the Kaguya Clan shouted.
"That's right! That kid's been bedridden for days now."
"Hmph, since when does the mighty Kaguya Clan need to rely on so brat?"
The clansn argued fervently.
"Clan Head! Indecision will only cost us our chance!"
The Kaguya Clan's mbers were fired up, itching to storm the Mizukage Building and drag Yagura down from his throne!
"Fine!" The Kaguya Clan's head was just as hot-tempered and had long resented Yagura's oppression.
Once the decision to revolt was made, the Kaguya Clan wouldn't hesitate!
Every clansman was filled with fanatical zeal. Under the orders of the head and elders, they surged out of their territory and charged straight for the Mizukage Building.
The Kaguya clan had no cowards! The losers would be branded as traitors… but the victors would end the tyranny!
"Ara… These lunatics are as reckless as ever." From the shadows of a high-rise window, Orochimaru leaned against the fra, his snake eyes reflecting the flood of Kaguya Clan's mbers rushing toward the Mizukage Building.
"Are they always like this?" nma stood opposite Orochimaru, on the other side of the window.
He wasn't aware that the Kaguya Clan had made a last-minute decision to rebel.
But in his eyes, this kind of mindless, full-frontal assault on the Mizukage Building was no different from suicide.
Unless the Kaguya Clan possessed power Super Kage-level, sothing capable of ending the battle in a single decisive blow, the fight would inevitably reach a stalemate.
Without allies, the Kaguya Clan would soon find themselves surrounded and overwheld by other clans and Civilian Ninjas.
After all, no matter how poorly Yagura had ruled, he was still the Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure.
"These lunatics have always been like this." Orochimaru recalled his encounters with them during the past wars, a trace of wariness lingering in his voice.
nma's impression of the Kaguya Clan was limited to Kimimaro.
And the Kimimaro he rembered from the Ani was calm, confident, mature, and composed… even when fighting against Konoha's Ninjas, he maintained a sense of courtesy.
It was hard to imagine that Kimimaro ca from a battle-crazed clan infamous for its madness.
In that regard, Kimimaro was sowhat similar to Shisui.
"Let's go. The entire Kaguya Clan has mobilized… none of them will return tonight." Orochimaru was not optimistic about the Kaguya Clan's rebellion: "I doubt it'll even take until dawn before the Mizukage sends Anbu to purge the remaining won, children, and elderly here."
nma followed Orochimaru as they made their way toward the Kaguya Clan's underground prison.
"I heard that the Kaguya Clan has a seven-year-old prodigy whose Shikotsumyaku is already on par with their Jonin." Orochimaru explained as they descended the stairs.
"I know you have an interest in Kekkei Genkai Clans, but this boy… I want him." Orochimaru's sinister snake eyes swept over nma, who was following behind him.
"You won't." A quiet but firm voice ca from behind the white three-eyed fox mask.
"Oh?" Orochimaru paused mid-step.
They had already reached the depths of the Kaguya Clan's dungeon. There, in the farthest cell, lay a pale-haired boy with dark circles under his eyes, trembling on the ground, struggling to breathe.
Seeing this, Orochimaru frowned. "A genetic disease…"
'If it were in the past, it would indeed be difficult to solve, but now...'
Orochimaru pondered, 'What would happen if this kid was implanted with Hashirama's cells or White Zetsu's cells?'
While Orochimaru was still thinking, nma had already stepped forward.
With a single hand, he gripped the iron bars and twisted them apart like paper before walking inside.
nma crouched beside the suffering Kimimaro, eting the child's gaze before placing a hand on his chest.
A surge of imnse Chakra flowed through Kimimaro's Chakra Pathways, warm as a hot spring, soothing his pain. The relief was so overwhelming that Kimimaro, who had been tornted by his illness for days, finally drifted into sleep.
"His body is too weak to withstand the awakening of the [All-Killing Ash Bones] ability." After Kimimaro fell asleep, nma stood and turned slightly, his three-eyed fox mask tilting toward Orochimaru.
