Chapter 187
Chapter 187
Ai stopped chewing meat, and his appetite disappeared instantly. After thinking for a moment, he asked Ishikawa with a hint of timidity and doubt:
"Hokage-sama won't do this, right?"
They all know Hashirama's character. To put it nicely, he is kind and benevolent, and to put it bluntly, he is idealistic and unrealistic.
As long as they don't do something out of line like Byakuren, Hashirama, who is firmly opposed to war, will never attack them, let alone actively invade other countries.
"If Hashirama-sama won't do this, then won't Senju Tobirama and Uchiha Madara do it? Can he live for another thousand years?"
Compared to Ai's optimism, Ishikawa shook his head and let out a low, long sigh.
In today's ninja world, Konoha is the undisputed overlord. Even if the Hidden Rock Village and the Hidden Cloud Village huddle together for warmth, they are not Konoha's enemies.
In this situation, whether Konoha can and should remain restrained depends on their conscience.
But conscience is never reliable...
"What should we do?"
Ai grabbed his hair in annoyance. It was embarrassing for him to think about such things!
"What should we do? Do nothing."
Shihe was a smart man. He had said long ago that even if the Hidden Rock Village and the Hidden Cloud Village wanted to do something, they would only repeat the mistakes of the White Lotus and end up with their heads chopped off and infamy forever.
What else can they do now? Of course, they should continue to lick Hashirama with all their strength, and make sure to lick Hashirama comfortably, so that they can have a way to survive.
At the same time, under the witness of the Konoha Allied Forces and the Mist Ninja, Hozuki Gengetsu officially took over the position of Mizukage.
For a while, the whole Hidden Mist Village was filled with thunderous applause.
The three disciples of the mustache and the reformists who had finally survived were so excited that they burst into tears. Thinking about the cruel and ignorant rule of the White Lotus and the compatriots who were persecuted to death, they felt bitter and happy at the same time, and felt that good days were just around the corner.
"Finally, wuwuwu..."
Looking at his uncle who finally became the Mizukage, Hozuki Oborozuki was heartbroken. He hugged his mother's portrait tightly in his arms and cried until he collapsed to the ground.
Mizunoe Rin and Kaguya Sora hurried forward to support him, but they also burst into tears. This scene was really heartbreaking.
However, Hozuki Huanyue, who was standing on the stage, didn't care about them. He just took over the important task of Mizukage and felt a chill on his scalp.
Looking at Senju Tobirama and Uchiha Shenyue under the stage, he clearly understood that the Hidden Mist Village had completely lost its sovereignty.
Sovereignty is something that often doesn't feel good when you have it, but once you lose it, it is irreversible. This is the same for everything and everyone.
"Long live the Mizukage!"
The enthusiastic crowd was immersed in the joyful atmosphere, only caring about the excitement in front of them, clapping and cheering excitedly.
At this moment, I am afraid that only the mustache himself knows the bitterness of this.
......
After Hozuki Huanyue came to power, he immediately made the blood mist policy of Bailian a thing of the past, liquidated the remnants, rewarded the heroes, encouraged development, and developed the harbor. Slowly, the originally lifeless Water Country exuded vitality.
This was mainly due to the fact that the Mist Ninjas were very sensible, or cowardly, and had no courage to fight to the end, so most of the troops and the younger generation were preserved.
The Konoha Allies, who won the whole process by lying down, completely became tourists. They enjoyed themselves in the Water Country, laughed and had fun, enjoyed the sea view today, and soaked in hot springs tomorrow. They lived a carefree life and bought a lot of souvenirs, contributing a lot to the economic recovery of the Water Country.
Xiao Huzi saw a huge business opportunity and decided to make the Water Country a tourist destination. This group of allies became ready-made experimental products.
It’s just that his aesthetics and taste are really not flattering. No one buys the products he designed with great effort. On the contrary, the Xiao Huzi doll designed by Wu according to his short and fat clone became very popular as soon as it was launched!
This doll is so ugly and cute that Shen Yue bought one and ran around with it in her arms all day long. The cute girl and the ugly doll are in sharp contrast, and this interesting contrast has made the sales of the doll even higher.
Xiao Huzi was so angry that his teeth itched, but Wu was very annoying and kept wandering around him all day, saying that he should just treat this doll as the mascot of the Hidden Mist Village. Being a very generous person, he was willing to give away the patent for free.
"Go to hell!"
How could Uchiha Madara bear to see that a good army ended up as a social gathering? He immediately taught this group of playthings a lesson. It was impossible for Tobirama to let them continue to be decadent by pulling people to train every day. How could he, a black-hearted Tobirama, come here to do charity?
So after a lot of warnings and lessons, everyone returned with a full load and set sail for Konoha.
In Konoha'sOn the way back, Kurama and Shukaku who stayed in the village were constantly harassed by the three-tailed Isobu.
Kurama, who was napping on Shenyue's bed, was invited by Isobu again. Kurama was impatient, but he still accepted Isobu's request, and his nine beautiful tails kept swinging.
Hehe, there's fun to watch again!
In the consciousness space, the huge turtle-like tailed beast was nervous, looking at his two brothers who had shrunk countless times, and asked carefully:
"Kuruma, Shukaku, have you left Konoha?"
"I told you that I didn't go with you!"
Kurama shook his tail impatiently, and Shukaku also laughed at Isobu. A small raccoon cat, its attack power is as amazing as ever, and the whole consciousness space is filled with its sharp mockery.
"Hehehe, you dead turtle, why don't you go and see for yourself? Just a few humans scared you like that, you coward!"
"Have they returned to Konoha?"
Isobu was not angry, nor did he fall for Shukaku's provocation. He just kept asking anxiously. Seeing that Kurama and Shukaku both said they didn't know, he simply chose to give up:
"Oh, never mind, I'll just keep hiding for a few decades."
In the real world at this time, Isobu was hiding in the deep sea, completely changing his usual hobby of lying on the sea to bask in the sun.
When he heard that Konoha was coming, he didn't dare to show up at all, for fear that he would end up like Kurama and Shukaku.
"I don't want to be that little girl's pet like you guys."
This sentence was like a fuse, instantly igniting the anger of Kurama and Shukaku. The two little tailed beasts immediately jumped into a rage and cursed at Isobu:
"What did you say, you dead turtle? Who do you say is a pet? This is a tactical lurking!"
"I @#¥%... stinky turtle, I will beat you half to death! After beating you, I will make soup with you!"
After staying among humans for so long, Kurama and Shukaku, who were already foul-mouthed, didn't learn anything else, but they learned a lot of human swear words. At this moment, they opened fire at full force and cursed Isobu mercilessly, causing this honest turtle to quickly kick them out of the consciousness space.
Seeing that he had offended Kurama and Shukaku, Isobu blew a string of bubbles in distress.
Ever since Kurama and Shukaku turned into that look, great panic spread among the tailed beasts. The name Uchiha Kamui was almost becoming a horror story among the tailed beasts!
They didn't want to give away the chakra they had accumulated for so many years, let alone turn into a funny doll.
If they really turned into that, they would be laughed at by other brothers until the end of the world! This is even more terrifying than death!
The more Isobu thought about it, the more terrified he became. Then he decided to just give up and fell asleep in a random place.
Anyway, humans don't live long, so why not just take a nap and let that little girl die!
.....
When the ships and warships gradually approached the coastline, the villagers of Konoha, who had already learned the news, quickly gathered together and prepared to welcome the returning allies like heroes.
Everyone waved their arms and cheered, but everyone's face could not hide their melancholy and tension. Many people stared at the people on the boat anxiously, worrying about whether their relatives and friends were safe.
"Alas, I don't know how many people will die..."
Of course, people will die on the battlefield. The villagers are not so naive. Even with Tobirama, Kamijou and Madara-sama, there will definitely be casualties.
Even though Hashirama-sama comforted them before and guaranteed that there was no battle and no one was sacrificed, the villagers did not buy his words.
Everyone survived the Warring States with great difficulty, and of course they knew what the battlefield was like. In their opinion, Hashirama-sama's rhetoric could only fool children of four or five years old at most. He couldn't fool children one year older, let alone adults like them.
Now all they can do is pray that the losses can be minimized and that misfortune will never befall their own family.
"We are back!"
However, the development of things was unexpected. There were as many people as there were before the departure as there were people who returned.
Moreover, everyone was carrying large and small bags in their hands, waving to the villagers with a smile on their faces. They were clean and had no missing limbs. They were all very happy, and there was no trace of the shadow of war.
This scene completely stunned the villagers of Konoha. Everyone widened their eyes in surprise, and couldn't help wondering in their hearts:
How come this is different from what they imagined? This war was too easy, wasn't it?
But in any case, this was a happy reunion scene that everyone liked to see. The villagers immediately put their doubts behind them and reunited with their families.Holding a child whom he hadn't seen for a long time, an old man with tears in his eyes was about to say:
"Child, you are thin, uh..."
But he found that their cheeks were obviously rounder. Instead of losing weight, they became fatter.
The villagers were even more confused. Are they going to war or going on vacation? Why is the food in the Land of Water so rich?
"Child, why are you fat?"
The allied forces were embarrassed by the question and quickly took out the local specialties of the Hidden Mist Village and said happily:
"Mom, look what local specialties I brought you!"
