Chapter 235: 235
At the Five Kage Summit, in the face of the Daimyos who were clamoring to destroy Kirigakure and "liberate" the Land of Water, Hoshigaki Kisame said that he will kill them. It's a pity that he failed to deliver on his promise.
Now, Tsunade decided to show mercy and help Kisame fulfill his words by killing the Daimyos of the four kingdoms of Fire, Wind, Earth, and Lightning in one go.
Because she knew that it was these guys who had been behind the scenes to fuel the flames and manipulate the situation in the ninja world. Too often, a single thought in their minds can spark a war that kills thousands, if not tens of thousands.
The Daimyos are the ones who need to pay the price for the war the most.
"Tsunade-sama, we will definitely complete this glorious task and live up to your trust."
Terumi Mei, Mangetsu Hozuki, and Ringo Ameyuri said firmly, their hearts were both excited and nervous. After all, the feat of assassinating a Daimyo had only been done by Kisame before. And the one-time assassination of the Daimyos, if successful, their names will definitely leave a deep impression in the history of the ninja world.
"Don't worry, I will send clones to assist you to ensure that the task can be successfully completed."
Tsunade could see the tension in the three, so while talking, she performed a seal and separated three small slugs from her body that climbed onto their shoulders.
Don't look at how small these slugs are, they contain huge amount of sage chakra in their bodies. They can not only spray highly corrosive acid, but also act as medical ninjas of the squad. They can even summon Tsunade's body remotely.
Therefore, even if the three had an accident during the execution of the mission, Tsunade could arrive in time to give the three of them her support.
On the same day, the team left Kirigakure. In the absence of their captain, Pakura, Terumi Mei served as the new captain and embarked on the road of assassinating the Daimyos.
Tsunade walked out of the Mizukage Building and came to the street.
In this Ninja War, Kirigakure's native land was devastated. In addition to a large number of casualties, almost all the buildings in the village were destroyed, and there were ruins everywhere.
However, what is different from the past is that in today's Kirigakure, there is a big tree with a diameter of tens of meters and a height of 200 meters rising from the center of the village against the blue sky. It once took root in Takigakure, and was later brought to the Shikkotsu Forest by Kisame, and now it was summoned here by Tsunade.
After the war, Tsunade was entangled in various affairs, and has been busy until now, so she forgot about this big tree.
She originally planned to send it back to the Shikkotsu Forest, but on second thought, it seemed unnecessary. After all, after being absorbed by a certain bastard, the natural energy of the Shikkotsu Forest was nearly dry and could no longer nourish this big tree. Moreover, with Katsuyu leaving the Shikkotsu Forest, this once one of the three holy places of the ninja world is now in a semi-abandoned state.
Therefore, Tsunade felt that it might be better to leave this big tree in Kirigakure, at least it can shelter the villagers from the wind and rain, and it can be regarded as a good landscape.
For her decision, no one in the whole village objected. After all, it was this big tree that blocked Onoki's jutsu and saved the lives of Kirigakure citizens.
It is the patron saint of the villagers.
"How is the preparation for the reconstruction of the village?"
Tsunade asked Shizune, who was next to her, while inspecting the situation in the village.
Although she is still only the medical head of Kirigakure in name, in fact, in the hearts of the people of Kirigakure, Tsunade is the best choice for the sixth Mizukage, and has the right to decide all important affairs in the village, but there is no time to hold the succession ceremony.
Tsunade learned from Shizune that in the past few days, Kiri ninjas and villagers have worked together to clean up the battlefield that was full of corpses, and cleaned up the collapsed ruins, and the reconstruction of the village will be officially started.
"Tsunade-sama."
Tsunade's appearance made the villagers very excited, and they immediately gathered around her enthusiastically, like the stars holding the moon.
Surrounded by the crowd, Tsunade came to the construction area. A group of ninjas and villagers were working hard to lay the foundation under the guidance of craftsmen.
"Elder Genji, according to the current progress, how long will it take for the village to return to the way it was before the war?" Tsunade took over the reconstruction plan, looked at it carefully, and asked Elder Genji who was leaning on crutches.
In the past few days, due to the destruction of the village, the villagers did not even have a place to eat or sleep.
Fortunately, there is the big tree that Tsunade summoned from before. Its branches and leaves that cover the sky and the sun have protected the villagers from a lot of wind and rain, and also provided them with a temporary shelter.
"Tsunade-sama, we are currently in a shortage of manpower and resources. However, everyone is very motivated and confident. We will be able to return the village to its original state within half a year and give everyone a place to live."
Elder Genji clenched the cane in his hand and said firmly.
"Half a year? It's still too long." Tsunade frowned, looking dissatisfied.
When Elder Genji and others heard the words, seeing Tsunade's expression not satisfied, they couldn't help feeling very panic. Ao, who was in charge of the construction, gritted his teeth, stood up, and said in front of Tsunade:
"Tsunade-sama, I will urge the workers to work overtime. Even if they have to fight for their lives, they will advance the completion date by two months."
"You misunderstood what I meant."
Tsunade shook her head, walked to the open space on the side, and said, "I can help with this matter."
She quickly formed a seal, and then she pressed her palm to the ground in front of her, injecting the huge chakra in her body into the ground.
An incredible scene happened infront of them.
'Rumble.'
As the ground shook violently, a large number of trees rose from the ground under their astonished eyes, they then formed complex wooden houses lined up.
Mokuton Serial-Pillar House Jutsu.
This jutsu can create multiple wooden houses in an instant, but it requires a lot of chakra. In the anime, after Pain invaded Konoha, Yamato used this jutsu to help Konoha successfully complete the reconstruction.
And Tsunade's Chakra and Mokuton are much stronger than Yamato's. The reconstruction work, which originally takes half a year to complete, was greatly shortened after her intervention.
"Long live Tsunade-sama!" Seeing this scene, the Kiri people cried out excitedly, and worshiped Tsunade even more.
Three days later, with Tsunade's help, most of the reconstruction work in the village has been successfully completed and it looks brand new.
The new Kirigakure is surrounded by a towering tree that reaches into the sky. There are beautiful wooden villas. The flower beds on the street are covered with green grass and flowers, the whole village looks like a Sage's garden.
The only disadvantage is that the weather in Kirigakure is relatively humid, and the moisture resistance of wooden houses is a little worse, but it is not a big problem.
At the same time, the Daimyo Palace in the Land of Fire.
A few days ago, when the news on the battlefield came back, it was like a bolt from the blue for the Daimyos. Tsunade's attack, not only wiped out the 50,000 ninja coalition, but also wiped out the Daimyo's dream of dividing up the Land of Water.
After the Daimyos came back to their senses, on the one hand, they felt extremely angry, and repeated their tricks and offered Tsunade a sky-high bounty of 500 million ryo. But on the other hand, they also felt a deep fear.
Unexpectedly, after finally getting rid of Hoshigaki Kisame, an enemy even more terrifying than him appeared.
At this moment, all the Daimyos have returned to their respective countries, hiding in the heavily guarded Daimyo Palace, planning to make a comeback.
In the past few days, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire was worried for a while, worried that the terrible woman would kill him, not to mention playing mahjong, he was not even in the mood to sleep. He hid in the secret room of the Daimyo Palace, and the loyal guardian Ninja Twelve guarded him every step.
After a period of time, as there was still no movement, the Daimyo breathed a sigh of relief. Gradually, he relaxed his vigilance and returned to the life of enjoying every night.
But that night, while Daimyo was having fun with a group of maids, there was a sudden scream from outside the house.
Immediately afterwards, with a bang, a young monk burst into the room covered in blood, who hurriedly said to the Daimyo, "Daimyo-sama, please leave this place immediately and go to the shelter! Kirigakure ninjas have entered the Daimyo Palace!"
This person is a monk of the Temple of Fire, and one of the twelve guardian ninjas personally selected by Daimyo.
"What!"
The Fire Daimyo was taken aback, and he fled to the back door, scrambling and crawling on the ground, ignoring his disheveled clothes.
But the next second, accompanied by several screams, several corpses flew in from the door and landed at his feet. He took a closer look and was shocked to find that they were all members of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas. On the bodies of these people, the acid of the slug remained, and they all died in terror.
"The Daimyo of the Land of Fire, your death has come!"
"At Tsunade-sama's order, I will avenge the dead Kisame-sama and the innocent people of Kirigakure who died in the war!"
Mangetsu and Ringo rushed in. At this time, the two of them turned on the hydration and lightning states respectively, and normal physical attacks and ninjutsu had no effect on them. Therefore, the place where the two passed was like a no-man's land, and they easily swept the guards of the Daimyo Palace, including the guardian of the Twelve Ninjas.
"Bring the Daimyo to safety!"
The Monk's expression changed greatly, and he shouted at the maids, and then blocked in front of the two of them, and cast a seal decisively.
Welcoming Approach Thousand Armed Murder!
At this moment, a thousand-handed Avalokitesvara formed by Chakra appeared behind him, transformed into countless golden fists, and hit Mangetsu and Ringo.
Taking advantage of the Monk holding back the enemy, the Daimyo did not look back and escaped through the back door.
However, as soon as he ran into the yard, he saw a shadow on the ground under the moonlight, spreading a pair of wings and blocking him.
Daimyo raised his head in horror and saw a girl with long red hair with a pair of green wings growing out of her back, floating in the air, looking down at him indifferently. Behind her is a bright full moon.
"Come and accept your death."
Terumi Mei spat out coldly, then swooped down, and instantly smashed in front of the Fire Daimyo.
"Nooo!"
The Fire Daimyo let out a harsh scream, but the scream came to an abrupt end, and then with a thud, the Daimyo fell on his back.
His neck was cut open by Terumi Mei with Kunai, blood gurgled out, and he struggled for a while in extreme pain, and finally died unwillingly, unable to rest his eyes.
"For Kisame-sama." Terumi Mei wiped off the blood of Kunai and muttered.
At this time, Mangetsu and Ringo also solved the Monk and came to the backyard to meet with Terumi Mei.
"Burn this place, and then go to the Land of Wind."
Terumi Mei said calmly as she looked at her two companions, and continued to act tacitly.
That night, a huge fire soared into the sky from the capital of the Land of Fire, engulfing the entire Daimyo Palace. The Daimyo family that had ruled the country for hundreds of years just vanished into ashes in a fire.
In the next half month, the Daimyo Palace of the Land of Wind, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Lightning also ushered in a similar endingthe Daimyo was killed, and the Daimyo Palace was burnt down by fire.
At this point, the Era of Daimyo has come to an end.
When the news came out, the entire ninja world was supposed to be in uproar, but it was unexpectedly dull.
Because everyone knows who did it. Besides Kirigakure's "God of Ninja" Tsunade, who else has the ability and courage to commit such an earth-shattering event?
For the Four Ninja Villages, what they are most worried about now is what Tsunade will do next after eradicating the influence of the Daimyo Palace. Could it be that she wants to do something that even Senju Hashirama can't do, that is - unify the ninja world?
Fortunately, after the assassination of the Daimyos of various countries, Kirigakure suddenly stopped moving, but re-entered a state of independence and closed off its borders. The situation in the ninja world has returned to the state before the fourth ninja war.
As if that war never happened.
Kirigakure.
During this time, Tsunade dealt with the tailed beasts that Pakura's team captured. Previously, under the influence of the Nine Seals of the Magic Dragon, the four Jinchuriki were tortured to the point of dying, they failed to survive and died one after another.
Before the four were completely dead, Tsunade extracted the tailed beasts from their bodies and sealed the two, four, five and eight tails in special containers.
These tailed beasts will usher in suitable candidates in the future, but it is still the same as before, it will be up to Kisame to decide after he wakes up.
After all the work is done, it's time to rest.
Tsunade decided to let Kirigakure to live life behind closed doors, as before, and keep away from contact with the outside world. She entrusted the matter at hand to Elder Genji, Terumi Mei and others to deal with, as learned from Kisame, and acted as a hands-off manager.
In the center of Kirigakure, the two-hundred-meter-tall tree has recently been called the "Sacred Tree" by the villagers, because Tsunade, the God of ninjas, lives there.
The trunk of the sacred tree goes all the way up and on a branch that is 100 meters above the ground, through a path formed by vines and branches, under the shade of lush foliage, a delicate log cabin is hidden deep in the tree.
Here, in the middle of the sky and the earth, you can see the boundless sky upwards, and you can clearly overlook the whole picture of Kirigakure downwards. It is indeed suitable as the dwelling place of "God" in the world.
At this time, inside the cabin.
Tsunade and Katsuyu are undergoing a "handover ceremony"...
