When Jiraiya sent Shintaka to find Ino, she was still dealing with the aftermath of Kirigakure Village with Shikaku, Shikamaru and his son in the Land of Whirlpool in the East China Sea.
In the past two months, a lot of things have happened in Wuyin Village.
Genshi is dead, and the old ninja used his life like a candle in the wind to save Terumi Mei. All the blame falls on him alone. He is the mastermind behind the scenes, and Terumi Mei is just a puppet in front of the stage. Regardless of whether the outside world believes it or not, anyway
He took all the blame on himself.
Even though Genshi was spared his life, the Kirigakure ninjas still experienced obvious turmoil.
At the call of a certain Dharma King, three ninja families left Kirigakure Village. The leader was the family of the fourth generation Mizukage Gouji who lost his position. Because they were controlled by Obito and implemented the policy of the Blood Mist, after the chaos was brought to order, Gouji
It can be said that our family is struggling in today's Kirigakure Village. There are too many enemies who want to kill their family!
Under the twin trees, I had an epiphany and among those who washed away my sins were the fourth generation of Mizukage, the son of Gouju who lost his warehouse, and the eighth generation of Gouju.
Kirigakure Village is rich in transvestites, Shiro and Ranmaru are the representatives... Those who are as feminine as the Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei are rare, and transvestites are king over there.
The fourth generation of Mizukage Goju Shikang is 1.43 meters tall. He has red lips and white teeth, and a handsome face, just like a big lolita. In fact, he is a pure man! He is male and likes women.
They not only have a daughter-in-law, but also a son and a daughter-in-law. If there had not been a great ninja war, in a few years, all the grandchildren would have been born!
Why does Konoha bully Kirigakure? It's because we Kirigakure are too weak! Why is Kirigakure so weak? It's because during the Fourth Mizukage period, the ninjas of the Blood Successor Kaikai clan were killed too hard.
There was already a lot of resentment, but after such a series of blame-shifting operations, the Gouju family had no choice but to run away with the bucket if they didn't want to be wiped out in the middle of the night.
Now they took advantage of the chaos to escape, and also took away two ninja families who were close to the Gouji family. They were also the accomplices of the Blood Mist back then.
It would be difficult for ordinary ninjas to leave the protection of the village. After all, the Gouji family was also the Mizukage family of the past. Even after repeated suppression by Genshi and Terumi Mei, the family heritage is still there.
Ino went deep into the Kingdom of Water, picked them up, and placed them on the original ruins of the Kingdom of Whirlpool as Konoha's outer barrier.
With three ninja families as the main body, and recruiting some minor ninjas and civilian ninjas, there is absolutely no problem in building a small-scale ninja village.
In order to express their gratitude, the Gouji family handed over a large amount of gold and silver jewelry as a reward. Gouji Yashiro also personally gave Ino a ninjutsu, which looked unremarkable and had a very ordinary name: "Water Release. Water Mirror Jutsu".
This is the unique skill of the Fourth Mizukage. He can create a water mirror with water-based chakra. A person exactly like the enemy will appear in the mirror, and at the same time, the enemy's ninjutsu will be completely copied.
This technique is extremely difficult to learn, even Gouju Yashiro himself cannot master it.
Ino held the scroll, and with her current water escape ninjutsu skills, and the three Magatama Sharingan as an aid, it took her almost half a month to master this ninjutsu.
If the learning difficulty of the Flying Thunder God Technique is the first level, then the learning difficulty of the Water Mirror Technique is the second level.
To put it bluntly, this Water Release Ninjutsu is not the Blood Succession Limit Ninjutsu, but it is more powerful than the Blood Succession Limit Ninjutsu.
….
Ino was very satisfied with this, and used his connections to borrow a batch of food from Yuan Shixiu, the younger brother of the Fire Country daimyo, to the Gouji family. They escaped from the Water Country and were short of food in all aspects. At this time, food was
More precious than gold.
After receiving a message from Jiraiya, she handed over the work to Shikaku, Shikamaru and his son, and rushed to the northeastern front line.
...
After listening to the mission description, Ino was confused.
"The country of ghosts? Where is this country?"
Tsunade was particularly generous and took out a map and pointed it out to her.
Ino looked at it very carefully.
I saw Tsunade's finger going from the Country of Fire to the Country of Grass, and then all the way to the west, the Country of Rain, the Country of Wind, the Country of Bears, the Country of Kasumi, and then...then the finger came out of the map.
Tsunade pointed two fingers outside the map
A circle was drawn at the place: "It's probably at this location."
Ino rolled her eyes, why are you pointing out a country that is not on the map? A fifty-year-old woman is not stable at all, she is like a child.
Dodo and Shizune on the side were both laughing.
Jiraiya also took out a map, which he drew himself when he traveled to the ninja world. It marked the Kingdom of Demons, but it was also at the edge of the map.
Ino thought for a while and asked: "Of course I can go investigate. Isn't it just an S-level mission? The question is...if I leave, will there be any setbacks on the front line?"
Tsunade finally became serious: "The losses to Kumoyin Village are actually greater than ours. Daru Yin came to discuss this matter on behalf of the Fourth Raikage before. The two sides have formally ceased war and are waiting for the results of your investigation."
In fact, the Fourth Raikage was also under a lot of pressure.
On his side are himself, Kirabi, Yukito and Daruin with four Kage levels, fighting against Konoha's Jiraiya, Tsunade, Ino and Namikaze Minato who occasionally appears in women's clothing...
..
When this lineup fights, Kumogakure is completely at a disadvantage. Jiraiya, Ino and Namikaze Minato are all one against two, and Tsunade can even tie against any of the first three Gardarin, just because
The kage-level masters in Konoha had to take turns to rest. Namikaze Minato was not a permanent combat unit. Ino even went to the southeastern front to fight for two months and returned to the village for two months before the stalemate came to an end.
The Fourth Raikage led his army to fight against Konoha for half a year, with a small battle for three days and a big battle for five days. The battle was so severe that his muscles and bones were in urgent need of repair. Now he took the opportunity to retreat and go back to lick his wounds and prepare to continue fighting next time.
Konoha has a similar idea.
The two families withdrew their troops and temporarily ceased fighting.
The withdrawal of large forces does not mean that there will be no ninja defense at the border.
Asuma replaced Jiraiya, Tsunade guarded the eastern front, and Shizune replaced Ino to guard the southeastern defense.
Ino returned to the village first, and Jiraiya handed her a secret letter.
She looked at the handwriting and saw it was a letter written by Namikaze Minato.
Minato mentioned in the report that the shrine maiden of the Demon Country predicted Naruto's death and hoped to see Naruto in person.
"Prophecies are often very vague, but if you look carefully, you can still see some clues. Minato will continue to investigate this matter secretly, but if... I mean if, as long as your life is not endangered
In this case, please help Naruto, please."
If it were another Hokage, he wouldn't be too obsessed with the so-called prophecy. Just listen to it and it's over. What does it have to do with me?
It just so happens that the current Hokage is Jiraiya. This hero of the ninja world attaches great importance to various "prophecies" and is afraid that something will happen that he will regret.
Naruto will die? Ino doesn't believe it at all. This prophecy is too ridiculous! Unless King Frieza comes to kill, under normal circumstances, everyone will die, and Naruto, the reincarnation of Asura, will not die either.
