Naruto : Minato back to the past

Minato frowned slightly. Although this was just his intuition, he always felt that the Third Mizukage disappeared for a year without reason, and there must be something unknown behind it.

 This problem is not with the Third Mizukage himself, but it is definitely related to him.

 Now he cannot use chakra and cannot sense, otherwise he would be able to investigate what is wrong with the Third Mizukage.

 The Kage of the Ninja Village is like a kind of belief. The Third Mizukage just stood on the Mizukage Building without saying a word, while the civilians and Kirikakure ninja below all had smiles on their faces, and some even had tears in their eyes.

 From the few words that those people talked about just now, he could probably understand the thoughts of the ninja of Kiri..

 "I'm sorry to have caused everyone to worry during this period. I left the village to deal with some things, so I haven't shown up for a long time." The Third Mizukage finally spoke.

 His words did not reveal any information, it was more like an excuse, of course that was in Minato's opinion.

 To the common people of Kirigakure and many ninjas, the Mizukage is supreme, and what he says is the truth.

 "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Mizukage!" many people shouted.

 On the top of the Mizukage Building, the Third Mizukage heard this and nodded with satisfaction.

 The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, which were a pair of very bright eyes, but Minato saw a hint of coldness in his eyes from a distance.

 "This past year or so has given me a lot of ideas, so next, I'm going to implement reforms on the entire Hidden Mist Village!"

 The civilians and many Ninja below were all shocked by his voice.

 Minato narrowed his eyes slightly. He originally thought that the third Mizukage were strange, because except for him, the other high-level Kiri official had never shown up.

 This in itself is somewhat unreasonable, coupled with Minato's understanding of future history.

 His heart also shuddered suddenly.

 "Could this be the beginning of the so-called Bloody mist?"

 Minato never imagined that accepting the mission from the Hokage and coming to the Hidden Mist Village would actually lead to the beginning of the Blood Mist Era.

 Although it is not clear what the Hidden Mist Village has experienced in the present, Minato is sure that under this policy, an internal struggle will definitely occur in the Hidden Mist Village.

 Even if it was the Mizukage who formulated such a strict system, he would definitely be opposed by the upper echelons of Kirigakure and some large and small clan in the village.

 And today, apart from the Third Mizukage, no one from the upper echelons of the Hidden Mist Village showed up.

 Could it be that all these people have been controlled by him?

 Minato suddenly recalled the strict posture in front of the Mizukage Building yesterday.

 Originally, he thought that the top leaders of Kiri were on guard against something, but from another perspective, perhaps these people were all under the third Mizukage control.

 This was a guess made by MInato based on historical facts, but it could not be transmitted as accurate intelligence.

 However, next, he may not need to sneak into the Mizukage Building, but just need to wait and see in the Mist Village and see how the situation develops.

 The Third Mizukage obviously has not expressed any direction for his so-called reforms. He has only given everyone in the Hidden Mist Village a preventive shot.

 After he finished speaking, the Third Mizukage glanced at the crowd below. At this moment, the mist in the air gradually became thicker.

 He turned and disappeared from everyone's sight again.

 After the Third Mizukage left, the crowd in front of the Mizukage Building gradually dispersed, and Minato followed the crowd into a restaurant.

 The gloomy atmosphere that enveloped the entire Mist Village seemed to have dissipated. In the restaurant, many people were speculating and making inferences based on what the Third Mizukage had just said.

 Minato's eyes were gloomy, the complexity of the situation seemed to have exceeded his expectations.

Outside the door of a house at the corner of the Mizukage Building.

 The Third Mizukage opened the door and looked at the people who were tied up in the room. One or two of them were still struggling. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't waste your energy. A barrier has been set up in this room that prevents the use of chakra. Even if the First Hokage, the God of Ninja, were alive, he would be just an ordinary person if he walked into this barrier."

 "What on earth do you want to do?" One of the middle-aged women frowned and looked extremely angry.

 "Haha, what do I want to do? I'm just exercising my rights." The Third Mizukage smiled again.

 "We have already made you the Mizukage, what else do you want?" The other man with white hair got even angrier when the old man looked at him fiercely.

 "I became the Mizukage because of you? Haha, you really know how to flatter yourself."

 "If the Second Mizukage hadn't died a long time ago, I probably wouldn't have gotten this position, right?" The Third Mizukage's eyes darkened, with murderous intent in them.

 "If it weren't for you guys, how could the Second Mizukage be that guy named Hozuki Gengetsu?"

 The old man's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, and he said, "That was all the order of the First Mizukage. You..."

 Before he finished speaking, the Third Mizukage's murderous intent became more intense, and he said, "Don't mention that guy to me again. I should be the Second Mizukage back then, and it was because of him and you that I was delayed for so long!"

 At the end of his words, the corners of his mouth slowly raised up into an arc as sharp as a knife.

 "So, now that I am the Mizukage, I must not only exercise my rights, but I must also return everything that has been given to me!"

 "What do you want to do?" The middle-aged woman glared slightly.

 The Third Mizukage chuckled and said, "You will soon know what I want to do."

 Having said that, he closed the door again without caring what those people said or shouted.

 He took another detour and came to the back door of the Mizukage Building, then opened a room on the side and walked in.

 In the dark underground passage, only the faint flickering of candlelight was heard.

 Following the road, the Third Mizukage soon arrived in darkness.

 The environment of the Land of Water is already humid, and it is even more so underground where there is no light.

 But he seemed to have gotten used to it, and when he reached a certain place, he stopped.

 "You are here." An old voice came out from the darkness, and the echo reverberated in the empty underground.

 "Thank you for your help this time, otherwise it would be very difficult to subdue those guys." The Third Mizukage said, changing his arrogance just now. Although the man in front of him was already in his old age, he was once ranked at the top of the ninja world. Even in this state, he was still terrifying, so he did not dare to underestimate him.

 "How are you doing with the things I asked you to pay attention to?"

 The old voice asked again. He did not take the Third Mizukage's thanks seriously.

 The Third Mizukage replied: "The Ninjas of Kirigakure did not find any signs of ninjas from other countries sneaking into the village."
