Chapter 150 Kaguya Wind

After the ceasefire with the Hidden Rain Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not idle either. He had received the news sent by Jiraiya through the communication frog of Myoboku Mountain, and he also knew that the main reason for this disastrous defeat was the leakage of information.

So he immediately began a thorough investigation, and soon he found the cause of the crime: Danzo Shimura. However, Danzo was very cautious this time and did not leave any evidence. So even though Sarutobi Hiruzen had clearly confirmed that it was Danzo who did it, he could not find any evidence, and Danzo refused to admit it. In the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen, whose three disciples were safe and sound, chose to forgive his good friend.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's act of sheltering also laid the seeds for Shimura Danzo's subsequent increasingly outrageous behavior.

-----------------

The home of the Kaguya clan.

A young man in white clothes with two red dots between his eyebrows was lying lazily on the roof of his house, with his hands behind his head, looking up at the starry sky silently.

The young man's name is Kaguya Kaze. He is the third elder of the Kaguya clan and a jonin. At this moment, he is struggling with his conscience. "What is a village, and what is a clan?"

Kaguya Kaze is the youngest son of the original third elder of the Kaguya clan, and the last surviving member of the third elder's lineage. As for why this is so, it all started with the story of Genji and Musashi.

The Third Elder's lineage and the Sixth Elder's lineage were once in-laws, so the relationship between the two is very close.

After Kaguya Genji rose to power within the clan, the lineage of the third elder was the first to show goodwill and followed closely behind Genji.

However, things did not go as planned. Genji fell from the altar after being seriously injured and unable to recover, and finally missed the position of clan leader. Although he later consolidated his voice by marrying the daughter of the sixth elder, with the disappearance of the sixth elder, the course of things inevitably slipped into the abyss.

After Kaguya Musashi successfully expelled Kaguya Genji's family, the lineage of the three elders who were close to the Hidden Mist Village and had once followed Kaguya Genji fell into a situation of being madly suppressed.

Unable to act openly, Kaguya Musashi continuously reduced the resources of the Third Elders' lineage through various means, and continuously assigned various extremely dangerous tasks to the Third Elders' lineage.

Over a long period of time, the lineage of the Third Elder has gradually changed from the third largest branch of the Kaguya clan to a group of only a few big and small cats, and now only Kaguya Fuu is left.

Five years ago, after his father, the former third elder, died of depression, Kaguya Fuu became the new third elder of the Kaguya clan.

Fortunately, Kaguya Kaze's talent is acceptable. At the age of 26, he is already a powerful elite jonin in physical skills. Otherwise, if he is not strong enough, he might not even be able to keep his position as an elder.

Ever since Kaguya Musashi decided to cooperate with Black Zetsu to carry out an armed coup some time ago, those members of the Kaguya clan who obeyed Kaguya Musashi began to become restless, and have begun to quietly accumulate strength, waiting for the opportunity to return to the Hidden Mist Village and then help the clan leader Kaguya Musashi ascend to the throne of Mizukage in one fell swoop.

As the third elder, although Kaguya Fuu was not liked by Kaguya Musashi, he was still a member of the Kaguya clan's senior leadership. Therefore, he certainly knew the news that Kaguya Musashi was preparing for a coup.

Kaguya Musashi was confident that he had already grasped most of the power of the Kaguya clan. Even if there were a few clan members who disagreed with him, they had no way or not enough power to oppose it under the general trend of the times.

However, he ignored the third elder, Kaguya Fuu. As the only descendant of the third elder's lineage, Kaguya Fuu has been simple and easy to understand over the years. He has never had any extraordinary behavior or remarks, nor has he ever expressed any intention of winning over other members of the clan. He just silently carried out various difficult tasks assigned by the family. These low-key behaviors gradually confused Kaguya Musashi. Therefore, in recent years, Kaguya Musashi, who has become more and more influential in the Kaguya clan, relaxed his vigilance against the third elder who looked harmless and had no rebellious intentions towards him.

When Kaguya was young, the Kaguya clan still lived in the Hidden Mist Village. Kaguya, who had been taught by her father and older brothers and sisters since childhood, had a strong sense of identification with the Hidden Mist Village.

He still remembered what his father and brother said to him when he was a child after they returned from the battlefield during the last Ninja World War, although he didn't quite understand what they meant at the time.

As ninjas of the Kaguya clan, their purpose of participating in the Ninja World War was to protect the Hidden Mist Village from being harmed again, and to fight for the rights and status that the Hidden Mist Village deserves in the Ninja World. As one of the founding families of the village, the Kaguya clan should fight for the Hidden Mist Village.

Although the Kaguya clan came first and the Hidden Mist Village came later, under the current system of one country and one village, how can there be a clan without a village?

Therefore, even though the Kaguya clan, led by the ambitious Kaguya Musashi, had fallen out with the Hidden Mist Village and moved away from the Village, those Kaguya clan members who had made great contributions to the establishment of the Village always considered themselves to be members of the Village. Although most of these clan members had been persecuted by Kaguya Musashi in various ways, Kaguya Musashi could not control all of them 100%. Therefore, there were still some clan members who were loyal to the Hidden Mist Village who survived, and Kaguya Fuu was the only senior member among these clan members who could access various information within the clan.

His thoughts kept wandering, as if he was looking for a ray of light in the endless darkness. As time passed, the figures of his clansmen kept appearing in Kaguya Feng's mind. Those who had laughed, fought, and lived with him were all members of the Kaguya clan. He couldn't just watch them die with Kaguya Musashi's ambition.

The Kaguya clan is the Kaguya clan of all the clan members, not just the Kaguya clan of Kaguya Musashi alone!

As time went by, Kaguya's eyes gradually became firm. He knew he had to make a choice, a choice that could save the Kaguya clan. This choice might cost the Kaguya clan a huge price, but he was willing to take this responsibility. Because he knew that if he didn't try, then under the leadership of the crazy Kaguya Musashi, the Kaguya clan would be doomed to destruction.

Taking advantage of an opportunity to go out on a family mission, Kaguya Fuu carefully checked that no one was following her, so she took a detour to the Hidden Mist Village and headed straight for the Mizukage Building.
