Chapter 454 Acting Mizukage!

Kirigakure Village!

The situation was extremely bad at this time.

The Mizukage Building and surrounding areas were destroyed in previous battles.

There may not be too many dead villagers, but there are a lot of ninjas, and there are also a lot of destroyed places.

Fortunately, Terumi Mei was there and killed the three tails directly and forcefully. The fourth Mizukage didn't even say a last word and was directly corroded into ashes.

At this time, the village's senior officials were discussing at the temporary command office.

"I think the most important thing for the village now is to elect the fifth generation Mizukage!"

A senior executive suggested.

"That's right!"

Others chimed in.

The conference room suddenly turned into a repeater conference.

They all expressed their intention to choose Mizukage.

And naturally there is only one person who caused all this.

Yuanshi!

At this time, he was sitting on the left side of the conference table in obscurity.

If no one knew the truth, no one would have dared to imagine that it was this bald old man who forcibly led others to kick the controlled Fourth Mizukage off his throne a few days ago.

And Mei Terumi was sitting at the top. On her left was Ao, who was wearing an eyepatch, and on her right was a young man who was wearing glasses and had a weak temperament. None of them spoke, which seemed a bit out of place.

Ahem!

Two slight coughs from the left lower head immediately silenced everyone in the conference room.

Because the sound was made by Master Yuan.

"I think it will take some time to choose a new Mizukage. During this period, how about letting someone act as Mizukage's deputy first?"

This is his real goal.

The process of choosing Mizukage is very troublesome, and if it is lacking, the legitimacy will be questioned.

Therefore, it would be a good idea to represent Mizukage first.

Not only can you get the power first, but you can also use this position to accumulate reputation.

"I think only Terumi Mei-sama can take on this important responsibility!"

Qing, who was first on the left, suddenly spoke.

And his words attracted a lot of resentful looks.

‘The licking is so curled, are you going to give us a way to survive? ’

The senior executives in the conference room naturally knew who Yuanshi wanted to promote, and they were not opposed to it. They just wanted to pave the way and slowly push the person out, so that they could 'let nature take its course'.

Ke Qing said this as if they were unwilling to let Terumi Mei take over.

But in fact, they really don't object.

After all, in this critical time, a strong person is needed to assume the position of Mizukage.

Terumi Mei is impeccable in terms of ability and strength. No one can compete with her for this position. Plus, with the support of Genshi, how can they object.

"Second!"

"I also think it's okay for Terumi Mei-sama to temporarily replace the Mizukage!"

"Whoever dares to object, I will never spare him!"

…

What can other people do? They are also desperate. They can only lick each other harder than the other.

If you really dare to stand up and object, you might be hit with seventeen kunai and commit suicide.

"Let's get down to business!" Terumi Mei didn't bother to joke with them and said directly: "Now the frontline troops are preparing to invade the Country of Fire and force the other party to negotiate with us. Now let the envoys prepare!"

The plan was sent before, and both she and Master Yuan thought it was a good tactic.

After all, it is just to break through the defense line of Portunus Island and land directly in the Kingdom of Fire, not to attack the castle tower. It is indeed to obtain the maximum benefit at the minimum cost.

The key is that in this way, the weakness of Kirigakure Village can be well concealed.

After getting down to business, the village senior officials also began to discuss seriously.

Genshi, who was sitting in the corner, was pleased to see Terumi Mei, who had matured above him, and was extremely satisfied with his performance.

She is outstanding both in terms of strength and ability, so it's no wonder that she has to be pushed to the top.

But there is another reason for hastily pushing him to the top.

I can't do it anymore!

In the previous battle, Master Yuan used his secret technique to deliver a blow at his peak. For him, an old man who was approaching his twilight years, the burden was too heavy.

Therefore, he must help the other party to his position before death.

It was with this in mind that the other party was allowed to serve as the 'acting Mizukage' first, and then officially become the Mizukage through election.

As for the Shadow of a Village, is it chosen by the villagers? .

Sorry, just listen to this.

The real election is nominated by the village's senior officials and voted by the jounin. Does this have anything to do with ordinary villagers? .

Therefore, all the obstacles to Terumi Mei's rise to power have been overcome, so there is no need to worry at all.

While Genshi was thinking about this, he heard Terumi Mei's questioning voice.

"How is the battle situation on the front line? Have you broken through the defense line of Portunus Island?"

And the answer was...

"Master Yingchen has not sent back any information in the past two days!"

The ANBU minister also felt a little strange.

There are more than 5,000 people on our side versus 1,000 people. No matter how you look at it, it can be solved in one breath. There is no reason to even bother to send a report, right? .

"Nagai Takaomi didn't send back any information?"

Yuanshi, who had been acting as a mascot, suddenly asked.

"Yes, elder, Lord Yingchen..."

The newly appointed Anbu chief hurriedly reported.

Yuanshi's prestige is no joke. He didn't dare to hide anything and directly told everything.

There's nothing surprising about it, it's just that the information was not sent back two days late.

It’s nothing!

After all, the front line is a battlefield, and it is not surprising to encounter accidents.

But he didn't notice that the faces of Genshi and Terumi Mei became more and more solemn.

"There is a problem!"*2

This thought came to the minds of both of them at the same time.

Because they all knew that Nagai Takaomi took the rules very seriously and there was no way he would delay the intelligence.

And the front line was the absolute advantage of the Mist Ninja Army, plus those hired ninjas, the number was more than 5,000, and the enemy they faced was only thousands of castle ninjas. In this case, it would be strange if there was no problem if they could delay the sending back of intelligence.

However, even if they knew that something might happen on the front line, they had no way of knowing what happened.

"Send out the Anbu immediately, I want to know what happened as soon as possible, and raise the alert level to the highest level!"

Mei Terumi suddenly stood up and ordered.

And his order also made everyone a little confused.

It was normal to send out the Anbu, but they felt that raising the alert level was unnecessary.

There was a large Mist Ninja Army on the front line, and the most important thing to be on guard against was the enemy, not them.

After giving the order, Mei Terumi explained.

"It's easy to say if it's someone else, but if it's Uchiha Dohei..."

The meaning of her words is very clear, that is, Uchiha Dohei is definitely an unexpected existence.

The first time he became a commander, he fought the battle of Kikyo Mountain and defeated the Sand Ninja at a disadvantage.

The most exaggerated thing about the battles he commanded later was that he had never lost.

Yes, the record was so exaggerated.

In addition to the intelligence she got, it was enough to prove that this was an extremely terrifying enemy.

So, even if it was just a little bit unusual, she would treat it as the biggest difficulty to deal with it.

At this time, hundreds of kilometers away from the seaside of the Mist Village.

An astonishing number of fleets sailed out of the fog and came here.

But they didn't dock!

Because there is no port here, small wooden boats can easily dock, but these large ships will run aground as soon as they approach the shore.

Especially for steel battleships, they even have to deliberately keep a lot of distance, otherwise the bottom of the ship with a very deep draft will have problems.

Well... One disadvantage of steel battleships may be their very deep draft.

However, this is a disadvantage in shallow waters, but an advantage in deep seas, because it is more stable and resistant to wind and waves.

The fleet slowly unfolded.

With five aircraft carriers as the center, other warships unfolded on both wings.

Whoosh, whoosh!

One aircraft after another took off along the runway.

Each aircraft carrier has 15 take-off runways, which means that so many aircraft can be launched at the same time.

With five aircraft carriers flying at full speed, it only took less than half an hour to get 5,000 aircraft into the air.

(The lost personnel were fully supplemented by the reserve troops!)

The aircraft that almost covered the sky was not the most shocking. What made Nagai Yingchen and Lin Qinyu Yuli feel the most incredible was naturally the following scene.
