Shinigami Jinchuriki In Naruto

---

Senju Mokuma slowly walked towards Mu, bowing respectfully in front of everyone. "Tsuchikage-sama, you are a deceased person, and we shouldn't disturb you, but we truly need to know the truth. Please tell us, did the Second Hokage choose a successor? Do you know anything about this?"

Mokuma's lips were about to break into a smile.

Say it!

Say it!

Say it! No!

He doesn't know anything about the Second Hokage choosing a successor!

At that moment, Uchiha Kagami suddenly opened his eyes from the corner.

Mangekyō Sharingan, activate!

Mu was about to open his mouth to speak, but suddenly his consciousness became blurry. He felt like his entire being was in a state of chaos. Although his body was moving and his mouth was speaking, it felt like his consciousness wasn't in sync.

"Yes," Mu said. "I know about this. The successor chosen by the Second Hokage is indeed Sarutobi Hiruzen."

As soon as he said this, the entire crowd was in an uproar!

"I see, so that's how it is," someone whispered in the crowd. "I was a little hesitant to believe it, but now it seems to be true. The Third Hokage is indeed Sarutobi Hiruzen."

"Yes, yes, it's incredible. I was worried that those young people were lying to us."

"Now we can rest assured. The Second Tsuchikage had no connection to Konoha. There's no reason for him to collude with Sarutobi. It can only be said that the truth is as it is."

"It's really commendable of the Senju clan leader. He went all the way to find the Second Tsuchikage just to dispel our doubts."

"Yes, yes, the Senju clan leader is truly noble!"

The crowd buzzed with discussion. The uninformed spectators even thought that Senju Mokuma and Sarutobi were on the same side.

Senju Mokuma was stunned.

He abruptly raised his head, looking at Mu in disbelief.

What's going on?

Mu's expression remained unchanged.

Countless thoughts flashed through Senju Mokuma's mind in a split second.

A conspiracy!

This is a conspiracy!

It was a conspiracy from the beginning to trick us into finding the Second Tsuchikage!

Senju Mokuma's hands trembled slightly.

But it was too late.

Sarutobi exchanged glances with the Daimyo, and the Daimyo nodded.

The Daimyo had experienced countless situations like this in formal gatherings. He didn't give Senju Mokuma any chance and took over the conversation directly.

"Since even the Second Tsuchikage has said so, and it's consistent with the information brought by Homura Mitokado and the others, and they corroborate each other, then this must be true."

"We follow the will of the Second Hokage, and we propose to appoint Sarutobi Hiruzen as the Third Hokage of Konoha, the Land of Fire. What do you all think?"

The first to express their opinion was the leader of the Shimura clan.

"We, the Shimura clan, have no objections."

Next, the major clans, including the Ino-Shika-Chō trio, expressed their opinions one after another.

"The Yamanaka clan has no objections."

"The Nara clan agrees."

"The Akimichi clan has no objections."

"The Aburame clan agrees."

"The Hyūga clan also agrees."

...

...

After everyone expressed their opinions, a loud voice rang out.

"The Uchiha clan also agrees!"

As soon as Uchiha Untai said this, it was like a reassurance to everyone. All eyes turned to Senju Mokuma.

Senju Mokuma's hands trembled. He was trying his best to suppress his emotions.

What's going on? Unknowingly, so many major clans in Konoha have sided with Sarutobi?

Even the Uchiha clan agrees?

He scanned the surroundings. Besides the village's major leaders, there were also Anbu ninjas, civilians, elites from non-major clans, and a large number of Iron Country samurai on the outskirts.

It seems that the die is cast.

No matter what, they lost today.

He closed his eyes.

"The Senju clan... agrees!"

The cannons roared in an instant, and amidst the cheers, everyone pushed Sarutobi to the top.

Uchiha Kagami pulled Mizuno out of the crowd.

"What's going on? What's going on? I haven't even developed my Mangekyō, how did you know about my abilities?"

Mizuno shrugged. "That's my ability."

He was actually taking a gamble.

But it wasn't a blind guess.

Uchiha Kagami was the ancestor of the famous Konoha genius ninja, Uchiha Shisui.

Who was Uchiha Shisui? He was a top-level illusion ninja comparable to Uchiha Itachi, and his Kotoamatsukami was the highest level illusion in Naruto.

Even if Kagami wasn't as good as Shisui, he should have some of those genes.

Besides, the Sharingan itself possessed powerful illusion abilities. Even if Uchiha Kagami's illusions weren't as powerful as Kotoamatsukami, with the Mangekyō's enhancement, he still had the ability to manipulate an opponent with a single word.

Mizuno knew that Kagami's ability might not be Kotoamatsukami, but achieving a similar effect wasn't too difficult.

After all, he only needed Mu to spout nonsense.

"I won't say much more, Kagami. Now that Sarutobi has successfully taken office, I need to take care of my laboratory."

Uchiha Kagami nodded. The Third Hokage taking office was a big deal. He needed to ensure Sarutobi's... no, the Third Hokage's safety, so he had a lot to do.

Konoha hadn't had such good news in a long time. The entire village was celebrating: shops were giving discounts, cannons were firing, and the whole village was thriving.

For three days, Konoha celebrated this event.

Envoys from various countries also visited one after another.

The First Shinobi World War had just ended, and all the countries needed to recuperate. Even the Third Raikage personally sent a letter expressing his apologies for Kinkaku and Ginkaku. The major countries declared a truce, and Konoha welcomed a long-awaited peace.

Mizuno, however, unexpectedly started to get busy.

It wasn't because of his own business.

"Mizuno-sama, you are the one who made this happen. Please help us," Hatake Sakumo said respectfully to Mizuno.

He was looking for Mizuno to discuss the matter of the Twelve Guardian Ninja.

Sakumo had been saved by Hanpō, the guard beside the Daimyo, and he was quite close to the Daimyo and the samurai. This time, when the Twelve Guardian Ninja were formed, he became the Daimyo's top target, and he was even asked to take the lead.

Mizuno was about the same age as him, but he felt like he was a generation older. "I've told you how many times, Sakumo. I'm just a messenger. You should go to the Third Hokage."

Sakumo wanted to plead, but Mizuno pushed him out of the lab.

However, before the door could close, Shimura Danzo squeezed in.

"Mizuno, Mizuno, I want to establish a branch of the Anbu."

Mizuno was speechless. Why are you all coming to me for this?

"You don't know, Mizuno, we all generally believe that you are the wisest person in Konoha," Danzo said seriously.

Looking at his straightforward gaze, Mizuno even doubted if he had watched a fake Naruto before.

"You see, if I have a direct branch of the Anbu, I can accurately grasp everyone's information. At least, I wouldn't have been unaware of the Senju clan finding Mu last time. I can also help Sarutobi do some things that he doesn't have time for."

Mizuno nodded. That's right.

You later do more than just what Sarutobi doesn't have time for.

Mizuno raised his head. "Okay, I'll give it a name. How about Root?"

"Root organization," Danzo savored the name. "What a good name. I'll be the firm root of this great tree of Konoha!"

He grabbed Mizuno's hand. "Mizuno, you're truly a wise person!"

Mizuno was filled with disgust. "Alright, alright, go ahead and leave."

On the border of the Land of Water, in an inconspicuous village.

A thick fog enveloped the area. Uzumaki Ryūzan stood respectfully by the river, her brow furrowed, and a hint of anxiety appeared on her handsome face.

Soon, a figure appeared in the fog.

She quickly knelt down respectfully.

"My lord."

"I've heard about Senju Mineshi, Ryūzan."

"I'm sorry, my lord. It was our mistake."

"No, it's not your fault. The two of you, along with Akasuna Saizo, managed to defeat Uchiha Kagami, Shimura Danzo, and Hatake Sakumo. That's already quite impressive, especially since you also killed Akimichi Chōza."

"I'm truly ashamed," Uzumaki Ryūzan said. "That guy called Mizuno was truly unexpected."

"No," the mysterious person said. "The fact that you were able to discover this person is more surprising to me than completing the mission."

Uzumaki Ryūzan had questions in her heart, but she didn't dare to ask. "Thank you for your praise, my lord. What do you need me to do next?"

The mysterious person said, "Rescue Senju Mineshi. He's been imprisoned for three months."

Uzumaki Ryūzan's pupils contracted. "What did you say? Senju Mineshi is still alive?"

She had always thought that Senju Mineshi had died in that battle.

"No. He's currently under strict surveillance by an organization called Root. You need to rescue him."

Uzumaki Ryūzan nodded hurriedly. "Yes, but my lord... we're lacking manpower."

Akasuna Saizo was hired last time, so they didn't control him. Uzumaki Ryūzan was a bit unsure. She couldn't go to Konoha alone.

The mysterious person saw through her thoughts. "Don't worry. I'll send you two ninja swords."

Uzumaki Ryūzan's eyes instantly lit up.
