Mist Veil Forgemaster: Reigniting the Glory of the Ninja Blade!

Chapter 113 Explosive growth in reputation!

Soon, the news of Kirigakure ninja's great victory spread throughout the ninja world.

"good!"

The Third Mizukage no longer maintained his usual expression, but showed an obvious smile, and even his eyes seemed to open wider.

"The existence of Xiu is really a great blessing to our Kirigakure Village."

The entire Kirigakure Village was almost excited.

At the beginning, the battle between Kirigakure Village and Konoha was basically balanced because Konoha was fighting on multiple fronts at the same time.

Mutual exchange.

To put it bluntly, Konoha didn't actually take Kirigakure Village seriously.

In the early days, the main objects of Konoha's fear were Kumogakure and Iwagakure.

Namikaze Minato is on the front line against Kumogakure.

Orochimaru is on the front line against Iwagakure.

But Matt Dai's sudden outburst shocked Kirigakure Village into confusion.

The proud Seven Kirigakure were defeated, and four of them died.

The momentum of Kirigakure Village fell to the bottom.

The Third Mizukage really had no other choice, so he arranged for Kisame Kisame and Zabuza to fight against the young ninjas of Konoha.

Konoha had confidence in the strength of Kakashi and others, so they adopted a tacit attitude towards the actions of Kirigakure Village.

It is equivalent to participating in a "chuunin confrontation match" during the war.

However, those who participate in the "Chunin Confrontation Competition" are not limited to Chunin strength.

Kakashi and Kisame Inogaki are already jounin.

But in the Chuunin competition in the original plot, there were many contestants who were far more powerful than Chunin.

Gaara, who can transform into a tailed beast.

Naruto who can channel Gamabunta.

And Kabuto Yakushi, who hides his true strength.

…

Konoha did not overestimate Kakashi, but underestimated Kisame Mikigaki.

To be precise, he didn't expect the existence of Zanpakutō.

Kisame, holding Kiri Ichimonji, defeated Asuma first and then Kakashi.

Become famous in one battle.

Among the generation of young ninjas in the ninja world, Inigaki Kisame has directly become the one at the top of the list.

Kakashi of Konoha was defeated.

The Red Sand Scorpion of Hidden Sand Village has the reputation of being a genius puppet master, but he doesn't make many attacks and often disappears.

He doesn't look like a serious ninja at all.

Yanyin Village is just a loess.

The third Tsuchikage, the son of Onoki.

However, he did not inherit his father's blood inheritance.

You can only use earth escape.

Therefore, people’s evaluation of loess is not very high.

Darui of Yunyin Village can make many people care.

The black thunder who inherited the third generation Raikage.

At the same time, he also has the blood inheritance limit, Lan Dun.

However, Darui does not have any record like Inigaki Kisame.

The victory of the younger generation of ninjas has increased the momentum of Kirigakure Village.

However, even the momentum can only be improved by the younger generation of ninjas, and it can be seen how embarrassing, unbearable, and terrible the situation in Kirigakure Village is.

After Loquat Juzo severely injured Ye Cang, the ninja world's attention to Kirigakure Village really increased.

And this time.

After Konoha temporarily eased the war with Cloud Hidden Village, it focused its main energy on Kirigakure Village, and even sent Orochimaru to the front line.

He was about to go on a big fight and beat up Kirigakure Village.

In this case, the four of them, Yagura, Fugu Oni, Juuzou Loquat, and Kisame, severely inflicted heavy damage on Banja and defeated Orochimaru.

Defeat the Konoha ninja army.

In one battle, he killed hundreds of Konoha ninjas.

In one fell swoop, all the momentum that Kirigakure Village had lost was restored.

This is Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas!

These are ten thousand snakes!

The four Yagura people completely stepped on Orochimaru and became famous.

Especially, the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost.

Yagura already has a good reputation.

The Kirigakure Village basically believes that after the third generation of Mizukage, the one who can succeed the Mizukage is Yagura.

This time Yagura teamed up with Blowfish Demon and others to defeat Orochimaru, which was a great achievement.

But the improvement in reputation is limited.

As for Loquat Juzo, when he severely injured Ye Cang, he had already returned to the evaluation of the top ninja in the ninja world.

Inkigaki Kisame only took action once at the end.

But the pufferfish ghost is different.

He was defeated by Matt Dai first and narrowly escaped with his life.

Lost the same shark muscle again.

But this time, it suddenly broke out.

Everyone could see that among all the snakes defeated, the Pufferfish Ghost was almost the one who contributed the most.

Extremely powerful and weird water escape.

And in the end, he uses blood as a knife to slash all the snakes.

That picture, that scene, made the ninjas present couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts.

Not many ninjas thought they could withstand an attack like the Fugu Oni's.

It's amazing.

"The face that the Seven Kirigakure lost has now been restored to Orochimaru."

"The younger generation of ninjas, our Kirigakure Village is at the forefront."

"The backbone of a generation of ninjas, our Kirigakure Village is not bad either."

"Even Orochimaru was defeated, who will be his opponent?"

After the battle, almost all Kirigakure ninjas felt proud and proud.

Correspondingly, Konoha Village has been greatly negatively affected. Not to mention the decline in momentum, there is even a trend of internal conquest. Many people are ridiculing Orochimaru.

Just like when many people in Kirigakure Village mocked the Seven Kirigakure people.

A meritorious person like Konoha White Fang was cast aside once he made a mistake.

Orochimaru is no exception.

To be honest, Orochimaru didn't really care about these discussions.

However, Orochimaru knew very well that Wanshe suffered a heavy blow, which meant that he would no longer be able to use Wanshe to his advantage for a long time. If he became a psychic, he would still cause trouble for himself.

In addition, Namikaze Minato has almost no defeats.

After so many years, he personally took action again and was defeated like this.

Under the influence of the wind, the gap between himself and Namikaze Minato will inevitably widen.

The position of Hokage will be further away from him.

"Mist Hidden Village..."

Orochimaru looked in the direction of the Kingdom of Water, his face uncertain.

An ANBU ninja entered Orochimaru's tent.

"Lord Orochimaru."

"What's the matter?"

"A letter has come from Hokage-sama."

"Sarutobi-sensei?"

Orochimaru's eyes flickered and he took it.

As a result, Orochimaru had already expected it, but he still felt bad because Sarutobi Hiruzen's letter was about changing the leader of the front, that is, he had just taken office and was dismissed.

"Because of such a defeat?"

"Is Konoha like this now?"

There was another person who came at the same time as the ANBU ninja.

"Danzo-senpai?"

Whether it was Namikaze Minato or Jiraiya, they had their own things to be responsible for. Hiruzen Sarutobi thought about who could replace Orochimaru, but he couldn't think of a suitable person.

Until Danzo Shimura took the initiative to ask for help.

"Hiruzen, just let me go. I'm not old enough to go to the front line. Moreover, the war with Kirigakure Village and the intelligence war are particularly important."

"The information about the Zanpakutō and the Shinigami squad will greatly affect the trend of the war."

"And my ability in intelligence is stronger than anyone else's."

"give it to me."

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it and felt it made sense.

Danzo is indeed good at intelligence warfare.

And since Danzo took the initiative to ask for help, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not consider whether this would make Danzo too tired.

"Orochimaru, there is a lot of talk in the village about your failure."

"It's not a big mistake, but, you know."

"Now is the time when the Hokage may change."

"Those people are not here for your failure, Orochimaru, but for you, Orochimaru."

"That is why I have chosen to succeed me as leader of this front."

"For us, that's the least impactful way to do it."

Orochimaru nodded.

Danzo asked again: "By the way, Orochimaru, can you tell me in detail about the situation of those members of the Shinigami team? Some news came back from the village, but what you know about Orochimaru must be more real."

"no problem."

Orochimaru said: "Loquat Juzo's Zanpakutō ability is no different from Ice Release. The village already knows the information about Kisame Inikisaki. He has fought with Kakashi many times."

"The Watermelon Mountain Blowfish Demon's Zanpakutō ability is rather weird."

"You can copy the water escape used by your own seals."

"You can resurrect the water escape you have used."

"You can also control the water flow independently to attack, no need to form seals."

"In terms of water escape, the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon can be considered a top-notch being even among the Kirigakure ninjas."

"No, among the Kirigakure ninjas currently, there should be no one who can control water release better than him."

"Even the ninjas of the Ghost Light Clan are inferior."

"And if he controls blood, he can turn the blood into the form of a knife."

"Extremely sharp."

"Compared to controlled water flow, the destructiveness is on a higher level."

Danzo digested the information Orochimaru said.

"In your opinion, Orochimaru, what is their strength?"

"Loquat Juzo and Watermelon Mountain Fugu Oni can probably be regarded as the best among the elite jounin."

"What about Yagura?"

Orochimaru thought for a while.

"In terms of personal strength, Yagura's strength will be slightly higher than theirs. The Water Mirror Technique is very difficult to deal with. Even I was restrained."

"However, Kirigakure ninjas cannot be calculated based on their individual strength. When their abilities are used together, they will explode to a level of strength that exceeds what they should have."

"Loquat Juzo can use other people's water escape and ice escape."

"The dried persimmon Kisame creates wounds and the blood will not stop flowing. This blood can be used by the Watermelon Mountain Fugu Oni."

Danzo frowned.

"Is it because of their combined abilities that they can defeat Wan She?"

"good."

Orochimaru left with a depressed mood.

Danzo takes over as leader of the front.

Compared with Orochimaru's style, Danzo's style is obviously different.

More insidious, more unscrupulous, and more focused on intelligence.

Danzo would never put the probability of victory on his own strength.

But this is also because Danzo's own strength is not strong enough.

There is no Sharingan of Uchiha Shisui yet.

No intercolumnar cells have been transplanted yet.

Haven't obtained the Sharingan yet.

All Danzo can rely on is his wind escape.

Danzo is actually somewhat similar to Ebizo in Sunagakure Village.

They are all responsible for intelligence and do all the dirty work.

"Sarutobi-sensei."

Orochimaru went to the Hokage Building as soon as he returned to Konoha.

"Orochimaru, are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

"That's good."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "I can't blame you for what happened this time. No one thought that a new Zanpakuto would appear in Kirigakure Village so quickly, which would increase the strength of the Watermelon Mountain Fugu Demon so much. .”

"However, given the current situation, Orochimaru, you should stay in the village, rest for a while, and adjust your mentality."

Orochimaru opened his mouth, wanting to say something.

However, after seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression, he still didn't say anything.

"Yes, Sarutobi-sensei."

Because of this news, Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village paid more attention to Kirigakure Village.

However, since there is currently no direct war relationship, the impact is not significant.

But Sunagakure Village, in addition to Konoha, is also at war with Kirigakure Village.

Ye Cang had just recovered from his injuries and was eager to go to the front line again.

Before he even made a move, he heard the news of Orochimaru's defeat.

Suddenly, Sunagakure Village's fear of Kirigakure Village increased to another level.

"The emergence of the Zanpakutō has greatly improved Kirigakure Village."

"The non-healable blade, Kiri Ichimonji."

"Ice knife, sword of blue rose."

"Blood knife, water dragon possession."

"It's really much stronger than the Seven Ninja Sword."

In fact, there are people within Kirigakure Village who have been negatively affected by this incident.

That is, the Ghost Lantern Clan.

A depressing, bad, and low atmosphere surrounded the station of the Ghost Lantern Clan.

Orochimaru's defeat was naturally a good thing for the Oniden clan.

However, the outstanding performance of the Watermelon Mountain Pufferfish Ghost is equivalent to a slap in the face for the ghost lantern clan.

The Forefoot Demon Clan was the one who forcibly took back Samehada from the hands of the Watermelon Mountain Blowfish Demon. What they said to the outside world was that it was not that Samekari was incompetent, but that the Watermelon Mountain Blowfish Demon was incompetent.

As a result, Xiguashan Pufferfish proved himself.

Fight with Orochimaru.

In the process of severely injuring Ten Thousand Snakes, it provided most of the killings.

In addition to the bloody knife killing, the water escape ability of the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Ghost has also become weird and outstanding.

The ability to manipulate water is still above that of the Ghost Lantern clan.

This is no longer a simple slap in the face.

Instead, he pressed the faces of the Ghost Lantern clan to the ground and rubbed them.

Now when members of the Ghost Lantern Clan go outside, they can't help but feel that other people look at them strangely.

"There are some people out there who are saying things that are very unpleasant."

"Why do we, the Ghost Lantern Clan, have no vision?"

"Too stupid."

"We, the Oniden clan, have almost become a joke to the entire Kirigakure Village, no, to the entire ninja world."

"Selfishly occupying the Seven Ninja Sword, but unable to use it to its full potential."

"I regard the Seven Ninja Sword as a treasure, but the Seven Ninja Sword is far inferior to the Zanpakutō."

A member of the Ghost Lantern clan said angrily: "I think the blacksmith did it on purpose."

"A Ninja Sword was specially made for the Watermelon Mountain Puffer Demon, and a Ninja Sword can also be made to enhance the ability of water escape."

"He just wants to see us, the Ghost Lantern clan, make a fool of ourselves."

"Want to see our jokes."

"This is revenge on us."

"In revenge for our rejection of his ninja sword."

"Too petty."

"Too specific!"

"How can people from the same village be so narrow-minded?"

"Is he really planning to become an enemy of our Ghost Lantern clan?"

"Now that he hears the comments outside, he must be very proud."

But in fact, Uehara Osamu has no intention of listening to outside discussions now.

Because Osamu Uehara has much more important things to do.

"Orochimaru's defeat has provided me with too much prestige."
