Whitebeard, Naruto, Uzumaki Fuushi, Karin, Kakashi, Shisui, Terumi Mei... the seven of them each had their own thoughts.
Whitebeard's goal is naturally not as simple as doing things for money.
As the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Everything starts naturally for the pirate crew.
More importantly, for his own family.
When he knew that Kirigakure Village was one of the five major ninja villages, Whitebeard was already eager to move.
Pirate....
Are born for treasure!
Whether it's the last 100 million Ryo needed to build the Moby Dick, or to save a little more treasure for the construction of his former hometown, or to leave a large family business for his sons and daughters... Whitebeard has to target Kirigakure Village, one of the five major ninja villages.
If targeting the Kusagakure Village is just because he can't stand people threatening others' families, and then he takes action out of righteousness.
Then this time Whitebeard targeted Kirigakure Village.
It's simply what a pirate should do.
Naruto, on the other hand, is very excited and excited, because this is the suggestion he made. He, the captain of the first team of the Whitebeard Pirates, originally had such a big say in the pirate crew.
Pops listened to his suggestion!
This moved Naruto very much.
When he was in Konohagakure Village, no one wanted to hear his voice, he was like a mute in the village.
And in Whitebeard's eyes.
His voice is as heavy as a mountain.
Whitebeard didn't ignore Naruto's suggestion, and actively let Naruto make the decision, which made Naruto feel a warm current in his heart.
Uzumaki Fuushi and Karin, this mother and daughter, have a simple idea, as long as Whitebeard says anything, they will follow unconditionally.
Invade Kirigakure, plunder Kirigakure, participate in the coup of Kirigakure Village.
These things, in the eyes of others, are no different from suicide.
Who doesn't know that the Fourth Mizukage is a perfect Jinchuriki?
You have to face the power of a large ninja village!
But Uzumaki Fuushi and Karin are not afraid.
There is no sign of retreat at all.
This is the value of the word "family" in their eyes.
"Shisui, why did you come too?" On the way to Kirigakure Village, Kakashi sighed every few steps, and looked at Uchiha Shisui helplessly with his dead fish eyes.
Now Uchiha Shisui, some of the bandages on his body have been removed, and the injuries in his body are much better than before.
At least, he is no longer an injured person who needs to be protected.
Shisui can now extract chakra.
And have the power to fight.
"It's considered a return of favor!" Shisui thought for a while and replied: "Whitebeard saved me, I should always return his favor. After all, I am not the kind of ungrateful and ruthless person."
"Kakashi-senpai, why are you involved?" Shisui suddenly asked.
"Do I need to say? It's for Naruto." Kakashi rolled his eyes and said: "You know how important he is to Konohagakure, not to mention... I also have a mission given by the Hokage. If I don't keep Naruto in check, my mission will fail."
"Is it really just that?" Shisui pondered: "But I can see that you are not only concerned about Uzumaki Naruto, you seem to be also concerned about others."
"Kakashi was silent for a moment, and denied three times in a row: "I'm not,don't talk nonsense."
Shisui didn't stop, but continued to question: "Kakashi-senpai, don't you want to face your own heart?"
Face your heart?
Kakashi put one hand in his pocket and sighed: "You win, I also care about Karin, okay? After all, she is also a child, and an innocent child. It's too dangerous for a child of her age to be involved in such a thing."
"I don't know what Whitebeard is thinking, letting his young daughter follow him to participate in such a big event." Kakashi's last sentence was said in a low voice, so as not to be heard by Whitebeard.
"Is it really just that? Kakashi-senpai, I can see that you are also concerned about Whitebeard. Why is that?"
Shisui was quite puzzled.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Shisui's words startled Kakashi: "Don't talk nonsense!"
The conversation between the two people.
They spoke in very hushed voices.
Walking at the front of the group, Terumi Mei couldn't hear clearly. She was leading Whitebeard to Kirigakure village, her mind in turmoil.
Terumi Mei didn't expect that inviting Whitebeard would mess up the entire coup plan.
She was worried and anxious.
What if the coup plan failed...
What would happen to Kirigakure village?
What would happen to the Land of Water?
The detailed plan she and a group of like-minded people had made was ruthlessly shattered by Whitebeard's fist. And Whitebeard wanted to carry out the coup plan his way.
What could a pirate do?
From Terumi Mei's shallow understanding of Whitebeard, he might want to violently break into Kirigakure village.
That is to say...
Whitebeard vetoed her detailed coup plan without any other plans!
Ah, this!
It would be a lie to say that she didn't regret it. Terumi Mei realized that she didn't find reinforcements, nor a strong aid.
She found a big man!
"...I don't know how to explain it to them." Terumi Mei muttered in a daze. She admitted that she was too young, too naive, and too simple-minded.
The suggestion to "invite Whitebeard" was proposed by her.
It was also her, Terumi Mei, who strongly advocated it.
And she personally invited him.
For this...
She even took half of the coup funds without authorization.
She took a full 50 million Ryo to invite Whitebeard to join.
She even promised Whitebeard a big pie.
...The annual fiscal revenue of Kirigakure village.
Everything was her fault.
If it ultimately led to a total loss, then she would be the sinner of the entire Kirigakure village, and even the entire the Land of Water.
She would be nailed to the pillar of shame!
"In case of failure..." Terumi Mei clenched her fist slightly, she took a deep breath and said to herself: "Maybe all I can do is to apologize with death... The original plan was so detailed and perfect..."
"Kirigakure brat!!"
Whitebeard's hearty laughter broke Terumi Mei's depression: "Gurararararar! Don't look down on the Whitebeard Pirates!"
"Did he hear me?" Terumi Mei was stunned.
He heard such a low voice
She was a bit embarrassed: "Of course I trust Whitebeard-dono, and I trust the Whitebeard Pirates very much."
The only comfort for her now is that Kakashi and Shisui are by Whitebeard's side.
If these two are willing to take action.
Maybe they can really do it!
"Whitebeard-dono..." Terumi Mei hesitated and said: "Should we find a place to settle the two young children? Are you sure you want to take them into such a dangerous place?!"
Terumi Mei was a bit worried that Naruto and Karin, the two little kids, would become Whitebeard's weakness.
"Hey! Auntie! Don't look down on me!"
Naruto was immediately dissatisfied. He was carrying a long flagpole, and the top of the flagpole was hanging the flag of the Whitebeard Pirates.
Naruto shouted: "I am going to be a man who surpasses the Hokage! I am not weak at all!!"
".....A.....Auntie?"
Terumi Mei didn't hear anything else.
She only heard these two words.
"Kid! What did you say?!" She turned around with gritted teeth, trying to grab Naruto's face.
However...
She found that she had caught nothing.
Naruto dodged it.
"Huh?"
Terumi Mei was taken aback.
Terumi Mei was very confident in her Taijutsu skills. It was so abrupt to grab someone's cheek that even a Chunin might not be able to dodge her move.
But she couldn't catch a little kid!
This surprised her.
Is it a coincidence?
"Auntie, I'm really tough, you know!" Naruto's young face showed a hint of seriousness as he emphasized,
"Even Pops has said that I can now take part in the battles between pirates and pirates
or between the navy and pirates, even on the sea."
"Stinky kid! Don't call me auntie!" Terumi Mei's forehead showed a "#" blue vein, and she glared at Naruto angrily.
"I'm only 21! 21!!!"
She reached out to Naruto with both hands, but Naruto seemed to know what she was going to do, and he took a step back.
Naruto dodged it again.
"You little kid..."
If Terumi Mei doesn't realize something is wrong.
She is not worthy to be a ninja.
"It seems that you little kid is indeed a bit interesting." Terumi Mei's eyes flashed with a different color, she guessed that Naruto has a very special perception, or a very outrageous reaction.
With such a talent, even if you can't face the enemy, you still have a bit of self-preservation.
If you're not facing a large-scale Ninjutsu.
It's still possible to save your life.
....
Meanwhile,
Kirigakure Village.
"Ao-dono, the Fourth Mizukage has recalled many Kirigakure who were performing tasks outside. He may want to gather the entire power of Kirigakure and then kill Whitebeard who is entrenched in the shipyard." A Kirigakure ninja reported to "Ao".
"At present, there are already hundreds of ninjas who have returned to the village. Plus the original ninjas in the village, the total number has reached thousands. However, Genin will definitely not participate."
"By then, those who follow the action will start from Chunin, and the number may be around a few hundred." The Kirigakure ninja continued: "The Seven Ninja Swordsmen's Hoshigaki Kisame has also returned."
"And the old Seven Ninja Swordsmen's Biwa Juzo is also in the village. The Fourth Mizukage seems to attach great importance to Whitebeard. In order to deal with him, he has spent so much time gathering so many people."
"Big move!" Ao, with an eyepatch on his face, looked at the thick fog in the distance with one eye and murmured to himself: "I don't know if the Mizukage is faster, or Terumi Mei is faster."
Ao knew very well what Terumi Mei had been doing these days when she was missing.
Terumi Mei ran to invite Whitebeard to join them.
If Terumi Mei's actions are faster than the Mizukage's, by cooperating with Whitebeard, she can remind Whitebeard of the crisis he is facing, then Whitebeard can avoid this deadly disaster.
By then, Whitebeard will also be able to see their sincerity.
The two sides will then join forces to plan for future coups.
This is a good plan, to unite all those who can be united, and not to let go of any powerful help.
The only risk is probably "human heart"!
Ao is worried that Whitebeard will pretend to cooperate, and finally sell their teammates, letting them fall into a desperate situation.
After all, the other party is a pirate!
"Terumi Mei is still too young."
Ao sighed: "I hope her decision will not be wrong, otherwise we will all be buried here."
As his words fell.
He looked at the Kirigakure ninja next to him: "Do you know when the Fourth Mizukage will probably set off?"
"At most three days later." The Kirigakure ninja replied: "It may be two days later."
....
"Whitebeard, Edward Newgate."
At this stage, Biwa Juzo has not yet rebelled from Kirigakure Village. At this moment, he is sitting by a river in Kirigakure Village, and the exaggerated Kubikiribōchō is inserted next to him.
"Hey, hey, hey!" Biwa Juzo held a bounty in his hand: "A bounty of 100 Million, the 'kage' of the five major ninja villages, is worth about this much. Tsk! That guy called us back to deal with such a man."
From Biwa Juzo's tone, it was clear that he had no respect for the Fourth Mizukage.
Even, he had long been rebellious.
"Zabuza, what do you think?" Biwa Juzo threw the bounty order, and a hand behind him caught it.
Now, Momochi Zabuza... is still Biwa Juzo's assistant, and has not yet become the new owner of the Kubikiribōchō.
Zabuza glanced at the text on the bounty order.
He crumpled it up, and Zabuza said coldly: "To summon us back to be enemies with Whitebeard for a broken shipyard, those who don't know would think that Whitebeard has invaded the Kirigakure village."
"As a Mizukage, he always makes absurd moves. For a shipyard, he wants the village Chunin to go and die." Zabuza also had no respect for the Fourth Mizukage.
"Mizukage should have been replaced by someone else a long time ago!"
He spoke more recklessly than Juzo Biwa.
No wonder he would later make a rebellious move to assassinate the Mizukage.
"Hahaha!" Biwa Juzo laughed emotionlessly, and then said:
"But we are ninjas of Kirigakure village after all, and we must obey the orders of the Mizukage!"
"But I have decided that after this job, I will leave." Biwa Juzo's words stunned Zabuza.
"Leave?" Zabuza frowned.
Biwa Juzo said: "There is an organization called 'Akatsuki', and a woman named 'Konan' in them found me. Three months ago, we had a fight, and I lost.
"She asked me to join 'Akatsuki' and gave me half a year to consider." Biwa Juzo looked up at the sky: "I have made up my mind."
He extended an olive branch to Zabuza: "Zabuza, you are a very excellent young man. Are you interested in joining 'Akatsuki' with me? If you and I join forces, even outside of Kirigakure village, we can make a name for ourselves."
"No." Zabuza answered.
His eyes were full of murderous intent: "I will stay in the village because I have more important things to do."
"Oh?"Biwa Juzo said: "Is it that kid? He looks pretty cute. I thought he was a girl before! Until I saw him in the men's bathroom, it scared me."
Zabuza was taken aback, he turned his face away: "Hmph! It has nothing to do with him, he is just a killing tool I want to cultivate."
.....
Hoshigaki Kisame aimlessly walked around Kirigakure village.
His appearance, even in the blood mist policy-ridden Kirigakure village, was a very peculiar one.
Often attracting strange looks from others.
But he didn't care
"I haven't been back for half a year..." Hoshigaki Kisame carried a "Samehada", and the sword in his hand was wrapped in bandages.
He frowned at the lifeless Kirigakure village.
'Nothing has changed."
Hoshigaki Kisame shook his head.
The entire Kirigakure village had no "vitality", and everyone who passed by him was numb.
The goods in the shops on the street were even fewer.
There's not much to sell, and the prices of the goods are very high, even the ninjas feel the pain of such high prices.
Most people are thin and haggard.
It's outrageous.
It's hard to imagine that such a Kirigakure village is one of the five major ninja villages in the ninja world. The blood mist policy advocated by the Fourth Mizukage has killed countless people in just a few years.
"What's wrong with me? I used to never be confused." Kisame murmured in a voice only he could hear.
Over the years, he has always been doing his duty as a ninja.
For the tasks assigned to him by the village...
He has killed many Kirigakure ninjas.
Kisame has killed many fellow villagers who despised him, and also killed many companions who were kind to him. He used to never feel confused, he only knew that since the village asked him to do so, there must be a reason for the village.
But as such tasks become more and more.
The more companions he killed,
The more Kisame began to doubt himself.
He also doubted the village.
"As a ninja of Kirigakure, the most tasks I have done are to kill ninjas from my own village. So, as one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Kirigakure, am I their enemy or their teammate in front of the ninjas of Kirigakure?"
Kisame unconsciously stood at a crossroads.
Passers-by passed by him.
"Where should I go? What is my position? What is my purpose? Do I... have an identity? It seems that I have found the reason for my confusion.
He stood still at the crossroads.
Until...
"Hoshigaki Kisame!" A sudden voice interrupted his thoughts. When he turned his head, he found that it was an Anbu from Kirigakure.
The Kirigakure Anbu did not get too close to Hoshigaki Kisame.
He was in a position where he thought he could escape from Kisame's attack range at any time. From this, it can be seen that Kisame is not particularly popular in Kirigakure village.
After all, what he did was very shady.
All were things like killing companions.
Even if he was just carrying out tasks.
At this time, the Kirigakure Anbu said to Kisame: "Something big has happened! Immediately gather at the Mizukage office building!"
"Tsk...I know."
After Kisame "tsked", he suppressed the miscellaneous thoughts in his heart and casually asked: "What happened?"
The Kirigakure Anbu replied: "Whitebeard has appeared!"
"Huh?" Kisame was taken aback.
The Kirigakure Anbu explained: "We found that Whitebeard's movements have changed, and he is actually heading towards Kirigakure village! His size is too large, there is no way to hide his traces, our people found something wrong, immediately came back to report to the Mizukage, now the Mizukage asked us to gather."
Kisame grinned.
His mouth was full of sharp teeth.
He stroked the hilt of the big sword, Samehada, and couldn't help but sigh: "Truly the man who single-handedly destroyed a ninja village, charging straight into the Kirigakure Village is quite an audacious feat."
