Chapter 223 I am the fourth Mizukage?
Kaito obtained information from Harusa, and naturally he was not clear about the plan between Iwagakure and Kumogakure.
However, there is not enough information for him to make further analysis.
Kaito looked around and saw that most of the Kirigakure ninjas in good condition were faithfully carrying out the task of rebuilding the camp.
But the depressing and dull atmosphere still enveloped everyone and lingered.
The previous six-month-long strong suppression of Konohagakure Village by the Kirigakure Village had caused the morale of these Blood Mist Ninjas to reach an unprecedented high.
As a result, they were hit hard by the Kumogakure side twice in a row.
Even when the Third Mizukage took action, he could only barely repel the enemy. Coupled with the death of a large number of companions, even in the atmosphere of Kirigakure, which was relatively indifferent to ninjas from the sa village, it was inevitable that so emotions of grief spread among the ninjas.
Kaito, who had just learned about the situation in the village, was a little anxious and confused at the mont. While he was observing the surrounding situation, an Anbu appeared beside him instantly.
"Jōnin Mirukawa, the Third Mizukage-sama invites you."
'Oh well.'
Walking into a stone house temporarily built by earth style, Kaito saw the Third Mizukage applying dicine to him, and hurriedly stepped forward to take over, not forgetting to ask.
"Third Mizukage-sama, are you looking for ?"
The Third Mizukage did not stop Kaito's actions. He put down the bandage in his hand and looked at Kaito.
Just when Kaito was feeling a little nervous from being stared at.
The Third Mizukage finally spoke, but his words made Kaito's hands tremble, and he almost spilled the dicine in his hand.
"Kaito boy, who do you think is suitable to be the Fourth Mizukage?"
"Ahem..."
Kaito coughed several tis before he ca to his senses and looked at the Third Mizukage with a strange expression.
"Mizukage-sama, I am still a child."
Faced with this kind of question, Kaito had no choice but to bring up his age in an attempt to get away with it.
However, the Third Mizukage seed a little unwilling to give in and continued speaking.
"It's okay, just say whatever you want."
Although the Third Mizukage was just talking casually, Kaito didn't think that he was really asking casually. His hands kept moving and his brain was working fast.
'Could it be that because Yagura failed to hold back the Fourth-generation Ai just now, the Third Mizukage had so idea?'
Although Kaito did not see the scene where Yagura missed the Fourth-generation Ai for the first ti, causing the Third Hokage Mizukage to be injured, Kaito still noticed that the Fourth-generation Ai rushed over the second ti and Yagura was late.
Combined with the injuries on the Third Mizukage's body and the look on his face when he looked at Yagura for the last ti, Kaito can guess roughly what happened.
Although it is unclear whether Yagura really failed to stop the super-fast Fourth-generation Ai or he intentionally let him go, the consequences are real after all.
'But is it just because of this reason? The Third Mizukage shouldn't be such an arbitrary person, right?'
'Or is it because of the failure on the front line this ti that soone needs to take the bla? Or is it because of the stance of the Yagura civilian faction?'
The main reason was that Kaito had not had much contact with the Third Mizukage, and had not paid attention to this aspect before. He had no idea what the other party was thinking at all. He didn't even know why the Third Mizukage would ask him such a question.
But now that the question has been asked to him, and after so thought he has not co to any conclusion, Kaito can only continue to give a vague answer.
"Um, Sandai-sama, hasn't the village always selected Kage based on strength? It doesn't matter what I think."
"You also think that Yagura should be the fourth generation, right?"
The Third Mizukage obviously did not give Kaito any chance to fool him and directly pointed out Yagura.
Kaito's mind was roaring wildly.
'I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!'
'Besides! In the original story, Yagura is the Fourth Mizukage, so I am right to think so!'
Kaito naturally didn't dare to say what was in his heart. He could only smile awkwardly and act dumb.
"Well, Yagura-sama is indeed very powerful."
Just when Kaito thought that the Third Mizukage would continue to question and was about to start thinking about finding an excuse to slip away.
Unexpectedly, the Third Mizukage changed the subject and asked a question that made it even more difficult for Kaito to answer.
"Have you ever thought about becoming the Three-Tails Jinchuriki?"
"Huh? ?"
Kaito finally couldn't help it this ti and pointed his finger at himself.
"Yes, have you considered it? You have also t Utakata, so you should have a good understanding of Jinchūriki."
"But shouldn't the tailed beast be sealed inside of the body from a young age?"
As soon as Kaito said this, he realized that he had made a fool of himself.
In the original work, neither Yagura nor Nohara Rin had the tailed beasts sealed in their bodies since childhood. It seems that apart from Konoha's Uzumaki Mito, these two are the only ones like this, and they probably don't have any special physiques.
As expected, the Third Mizukage began to explain.
"The Three-Tails is different. The children are chosen as Jinchuriki's because children's bodies are in the developnt stage, making it easier to integrate with the sealing technique, and the tailed beast will be more stable."
"But Three-Tails's personality, huh."
At this point, the Third Mizukage didn't know how to comnt, and Kaito imdiately took over.
"More easy-going?"
"That's about right. So you want to try it?"
Kaito felt ashad when he heard this.
'Isn't this old fellow Third Mizukage planning to make the Fourth Mizukage? But I'm only twelve years old!'
Having stayed in the Kirigakure Village for such a long ti, Kaito actually had no aversion to becoming a Mizukage. However, at his age now, becoming a Jonin and the captain of the flying squad was already an exceptional promotion.
If it was about Him and i competing for the position of Fifth Mizukage, Kaito didn't think it was a big deal.
But the Fourth Mizukage?
Perhaps it was because he had just taken office that various warlords in the Kirigakure Village rose up imdiately, and rebellious ninjas and assassinations followed one after another.
This is totally unconvincing!
You have to know that the youngest Kage in the original work, Gaara, was only 16 years old when he beca the Kazekage. Even then, the Sunagakure Village was still in a period of transition, and it seed that there was still a lot of opposition.
As the commander of the front line, Yagura had a high reputation in the village. Besides, even if he had the support of the Three-Tails' chakra, it was still unclear whether he could defeat Yagura.
The most important thing is that he has too many secrets. Kaito has no interest in having Three-Tails in his body that can share his vision.
Kaito wasn't even very interested in becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, let alone the Three-Tails.
This kind of power that does not belong to you will always make you feel uneasy when you use it.
'Well, plug-ins don't count. Plug-ins don't have independent consciousness. It's my own power!'
Kaito also made a very hypocritical excuse for his own plug-in.
"Third Mizukage-sama, would you like to reconsider this matter? I feel that I still have room for improvent. It would be a bit of a waste of my combat power to let be the Three-Tails Jinchuriki."
Kaito scratched his head in embarrassnt, racking his brains to co up with such a la excuse.
However, the Third Mizukage seed to be just asking casually. After his gaze stayed on Kaito for a mont, he saw that he really didn't seem to have any ideas and didn't continue the topic.
Afterwards, in this awkward atmosphere, Kaito quickly bandaged and applied dicine to the Third Mizukage and then hurriedly said goodbye and left.
The Third Mizukage looked at Kaito's fleeing back and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
"It's like I'm going to hurt him."
