Chapter 86: Hidden Mist Village Elder Genji Causes Trouble, Byakuya Strongly Supports Mei Terumi!
Not long after,
Ao saw Byakuya.
"Lord Byakuya, I am Ao, a subordinate of Lady Mei Terumi!"
Ao's action already counted as standing in opposition to the elders.
Upon seeing Byakuya, he immediately told him everything that had happened at the meeting.
"Interesting, truly interesting!"
When Byakuya heard that Mei Terumi not only hadn't been rewarded but was instead being stripped of all her duties, he immediately laughed.
However, Ao could clearly sense
the killing intent radiating from his entire body.
He absolutely didn't dare to look down on the other party just because Byakuya was young.
One must know that even a famous powerhouse of the Hidden Mist Village like Yagura Karatachi hadn't lasted the time it takes for an incense stick to burn in his hands.
"Take me there."
Byakuya simply said those three words indifferently.
But Ao could hear a thick killing intent within it.
"Yes, My Lord!"
Ao agreed without hesitation.
On the other side, Zabuza saw this and also lifted his Executioner's Blade, which was almost broken in half, preparing to take action.
Although Zabuza might be a bit weak.
But he really dared to charge in!
After being beaten for so long, Zabuza actually understood one thing.
As long as Lord Byakuya didn't let them die, even the Fourth Mizukage couldn't kill them!
In fact, it was like an investment.
Whether to choose to side with Genji's faction, which had higher prestige and seniority in the Hidden Mist Village.
Or choose to stand with Mei Terumi's faction, who was young, promising, and helped by a mysterious powerhouse.
Ao was a rare smart person in the Hidden Mist Village.
Genji's faction certainly couldn't shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Hidden Mist Village.
The future of the Hidden Mist Village was definitely not for Genji to decide.
Who would dare to gamble the future of the Hidden Mist Village on a group of nearly seventy or eighty-year-old men?
Soon, led by Ao, Byakuya arrived at the place where the high-level meeting of the Hidden Mist Village was being held.
Interestingly, when the Fourth Mizukage was around...
These elders were each more quiet and stable than the last.
But conversely, after the Fourth Mizukage was killed by Mei Terumi...
These elders actually straightened their backs!
"Stop! No one except important members of the Hidden Mist Village may enter!"
The two Hidden Mist Ninjas at the door obviously lacked discernment.
Clang!
Zabuza directly pulled out his Executioner's Blade from behind and accidentally placed it against their necks.
"Say one more word, and I'll feed you to my Executioner's Blade!"
Zabuza's fierce threat immediately terrified them.
Because they recognized that the Ninja before them was the famous "demon" Zabuza Momochi of the Hidden Mist Village!
"Lord, please enter!"
By this time, Zabuza had realized that pleasing the boss was an art.
Although Zabuza couldn't beat Yagura Karatachi, couldn't beat Mei Terumi, couldn't beat Kisame Hoshigaki, and couldn't beat Hozuki Mangetsu!
But, besides those people...
Then it was Zabuza's turn!
Who in the entire Hidden Mist Village hadn't heard of Zabuza's name?
Unlike Mei Terumi's reputation, Zabuza's was purely a fearsome one.
When Zabuza was nine years old, he killed all the students in that year's Hidden Mist Ninja graduation exam by himself.
Which ordinary Ninja in the Hidden Mist Village wouldn't be afraid when mentioning Zabuza's name?
But now, Zabuza was actually being respectful to a young man.
He even unconsciously lowered his posture.
This made many Hidden Mist Ninjas who had never seen Byakuya curious.
"Who is that young man? Even the demon Zabuza is so respectful to him!"
"I don't think I've seen him in the Hidden Mist Village before!"
At this time, the Ninjas who had previously followed Mei Terumi to corner the Fourth Mizukage became proud.
"You don't know? This is the genius Ninja who killed the Fourth Mizukage with a single blow back then!"
"He's our Lady Mei Terumi's future husband!"
These words immediately caused a huge stir among the crowd.
Killing the Fourth Mizukage with one blow!
Lady Mei Terumi's future husband.
Each one sounded like something that could not be ignored.
"Genji, Elders, someone has broken in!"
At the meeting, a Ninja under one of the elders hurried forward to report.
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding elders' brows furrowed deeply.
Someone actually dared to rush in at this time.
Don't they know this is where the Hidden Mist high-level talks are held?
"Who broke in without permission!"
The elder glanced at Genji, who didn't react, then turned and asked in a rebuking tone.
The reporting Ninja could only tell everything.
"It's Lady Mei Terumi's husband!"
Because everyone was saying so, he subconsciously thought it was true.
"My husband?"
Mei Terumi heard for the first time that she was married.
How could she not know about this herself?!
"Wait!"
Then Mei Terumi suddenly realized.
"It's Byakuya!"
Mei Terumi turned her head and showed a joyful expression, a rare trace of excitement appearing on her tired face.
"Absurd!"
The group of elders all became angry.
After all, the other party's behavior clearly showed no respect for them.
"Hmph, I haven't seen you in years, but you sure have a lot of official authority!"
Then Zabuza followed Byakuya as they burst in.
As Byakuya's subordinate, such things naturally needed to be done by Zabuza.
Otherwise, if the boss had to act personally, it would be undignified.
"Who are you, and why do you dare to trespass into our Hidden Mist high-level meeting!"
But the Hidden Mist elders didn't take Zabuza seriously at all.
Their eyes were all on Byakuya, who had just walked in.
Byakuya just calmly looked around.
Finally, his gaze settled on Genji, who was sitting at the top.
"Sit down."
Seeing the group of elders shamelessly judging Mei Terumi...
Byakuya immediately stood in front of Mei Terumi.
Perhaps it was the sense of security Byakuya gave her.
So Mei Terumi subconsciously followed Byakuya's words.
Anyway, she hadn't done anything wrong.
"Elders, this is the one who truly killed the Fourth Mizukage!"
The expressions of many Ninjas changed upon seeing Byakuya.
They became filled with immense respect.
Because of the various policies of the Village of the Bloody Mist, the person the Hidden Mist Ninjas wanted to kill most...
Wasn't those Rogue Ninjas, nor the other hostile Villages.
But their own Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi.
Every Hidden Mist Ninja dreamed of killing the Fourth Mizukage.
But because of the Fourth Mizukage's strength, they could only dream.
But today, someone actually killed the Fourth Mizukage with a single blow.
Such a person instantly became an idol for everyone in the Hidden Mist Village.
"What!"
The expressions of those in the elders' faction changed after hearing this news.
They originally thought it was Mei Terumi who killed the Fourth Mizukage.
But they didn't expect that the one who actually did it was someone else!
"Hmph, a bunch of trash, only fit to bark here!"
"How come I didn't see you causing trouble for the Fourth Mizukage?"
"Was it because you didn't dare?"
Byakuya's few words completely shattered their composure.
Sometimes lies don't hurt, but the truth is a sharp blade.
