Hearing Uchiha Itachi say this about himself, even soone as tolerant as Uchiha Obito couldn't stand it and imdiately fought back.
"Isn't the truly pathetic puppet the Uchiha clan?"
"Under that man's rule, even if Sarutobi Hiruzen dies, the Uchiha clan will never beco Hokage."
"Only by casting Infinite Tsukuyomi can you obtain a world of your own!"
Uchiha Itachi didn't respond. He simply ignored him, exchanged a few quiet words with his father, and the two turned to leave.
Watching the backs of father and son disappearing into the distance, Uchiha Obito let out a cold laugh.
After all, only he understood the true nature of this world.
The battle between the three great shinobi villages shook the entire ninja world.
Although Iwagakure and Kumogakure had not been completely defeated, losing their Jinchūriki had pushed both villages into an extrely unfavorable position.
Konoha's high-end combat strength was still intact.
Iwagakure and Kumogakure, on the other hand, had suffered heavy losses.
When the Third Tsuchikage and the Fourth Raikage received the news, they flew into a rage and imdiately sent out countless shinobi to search for any trace of the Akatsuki.
Kumogakure even transported their Chakra Cannon to the front lines, determined to win the war at any cost.
Konoha.
Today's Konoha was unusually lively, all because of the news that a delegation from the Hidden Mist was arriving.
No matter the reason, a formal visit from another village had to be received with proper courtesy—let alone when the Mizukage herself was leading the delegation.
In the Hokage's office—
Terumi i, wearing a blue dress, was seated across from Namikaze Minato.
Judging from their expressions, the conversation had been going very smoothly.
"Fifth Mizukage, I'm sure our cooperation will be very pleasant," Minato said with a gentle smile.
Just monts earlier, the two villages had formally agreed to an alliance, which left Namikaze Minato genuinely relieved. After all, according to Namikaze Kirito's philosophy—if soone refused to cooperate, then you beat them into cooperating.
Right now, Minato didn't want to cause any more bloodshed.
The fact that the Hidden Mist had taken the initiative to seek an alliance would save Konoha a great deal of trouble.
"If we didn't form an alliance, we might just end up being taken over by that man instead."
When she said this, a faint hint of resentnt flashed across Terumi i's beautiful face.
Hearing that, Namikaze Minato could only smile awkwardly.
Indeed—before Terumi i's envoy had arrived, he and Nara Shikaku had been discussing counterasures against Kirigakure.
Seeing Minato's embarrassnt, Terumi i took the initiative to change the subject.
"Where is he?"
"He? You an Kirito?" Minato scratched his head. "He's out leading his own team on a mission right now."
After explaining Kirito's location, Minato assigned a Konoha shinobi to guide her there.
Watching Terumi i's back as she left, Namikaze Minato couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.
"If those two really hit it off, Kushina… I've got a bad feeling Kirito's future is going to be anything but peaceful…"
At that mont, Namikaze Kirito was living quite comfortably.
He had taken three Sand shinobi along to do so simple missions.
To be precise, it wasn't really him doing the missions—Gaara and Kankuro were the ones actually working.
Kirito himself was sitting off to the side, basking in the sun with Temari in his arms.
Gaara and Kankuro had accidentally discovered their relationship. Now that they knew, Namikaze Kirito had no intention of hiding it anymore.
He was becoming more and more brazen about it.
Temari, however, was incredibly shy. Sitting in Kirito's lap, she didn't dare move an inch, her whole body stiff and tense.
"What are you so nervous about?"
Namikaze Kirito gently held Temari's soft, fair hand and instantly noticed how sweaty her palm was. He let out a quiet chuckle.
Temari let him play with her hand, her lips tightly pressed together as she stayed silent.
And that was precisely the scene Terumi i walked in on.
The Konoha shinobi leading the way felt a sudden chill run down his spine when he saw it.
Sensing the Mizukage's smile behind him, he imdiately made himself scarce.
Anyway, this was Konoha and Namikaze Kirito was right there. It wasn't as if anything could really happen to him.
"Oh my, our Kirito-kun really knows how to enjoy himself."
As soon as Temari heard the voice, she jumped out of Kirito's arms like a startled rabbit and vanished from sight in an instant.
Namikaze Kirito shot Terumi i a slightly annoyed look.
"Honestly, Mizukage-sama, you co all the way to our village just to disturb my peaceful life? That's a bit too much."
"How dare you say that!"
Terumi i walked up to him, her eyes blazing.
"You did all that to , and now you're here flirting with little girls?"
"What do you an 'all that'?! Don't talk nonsense!"
Namikaze Kirito replied in a deliberately "shocked" tone.
"You bastard! As a man, shouldn't you be taking responsibility!?"
With that, Terumi i ignored his reaction and simply sat down right on his lap.
"Oi, Mizukage-sama, seriously—what are you doing?"
Though Kirito was enjoying the softness of her big butt on his lap, he still asked the question.
"Don't you like hugging people? Then hug . I should be a lot better than that little girl, don't you think?"
Terumi i's tone was teasing, but if one listened carefully, there was a faint tremor in her voice.
She was obviously embarrassed as well—but out of anger, she had still taken such a bold action.
"Really now?"
Namikaze Kirito suddenly leaned in close to her ear and blew softly.
Terumi i shivered and shot up to her feet.
"What are you doing!?"
"Pfft—HAHAHAHA!"
Namikaze Kirito stood up too, laughing heartily.
"Alright, so what did you co to see for?"
Terumi i gazed at the man in front of her with complex emotions in her eyes. She definitely had so feelings for him—and they had already had more than one intimate encounter.
But she still couldn't see through him at all.
What is this man really thinking?
So, she tested him with a question.
"What are you planning to do… about the Hidden Mist?"
"Before you ca here, you should have heard my father propose the alliance."
Kirito's eyes were bright and sharp—he had clearly seen through her intent.
Terumi i was a smart woman. After learning what had happened on the battlefield, of course she would co to Konoha to seek an alliance.
Sure enough, just a few days ago, she had already arrived in the village.
"It's not about the relationship between our villages," Terumi i shook her head, her tone firm. "What I want to ask is you—what are you going to do to Kirigakure?"
"Oh?"
Namikaze Kirito glanced at her with new interest. It seed this woman was even smarter than he'd expected.
It made sense. As Mizukage, she had managed to completely transform the Hidden Mist in just a few short years—not only through her thods, but in the hearts of the people as well.
"If it can't be unified, it has to be erased."
Terumi i's beautiful eyes never left Kirito's face.
She could tell he wasn't lying.
The man standing before her truly intended to rule the entire shinobi world.
If you refused to follow in his footsteps, he had more than enough power to simply wipe you out.
Seeing that Terumi i had fallen silent for so long, Namikaze Kirito grew curious about her answer.
He had already laid the path out in front of her.
Now—how would this clever woman choose?
