Chapter 32: Mei Terumi's Choice
Obito looked at Mei Terumi playfully, but his heart was cold.
The Hozuki clan was the main culprit in Rin's death back then.
So the Hozuki clan must die!
Mei Terumi's expression changed constantly, feeling both angry and powerless in her heart.
It seemed the other party gave her a choice, but in reality, she only had one choice, which was to exterminate the Hozuki clan.
Otherwise, even if the Hidden Mist Village wasn't completely destroyed, it wouldn't be far off.
However, the Hozuki clan was an ally of her family and had even supported her to become Mizukage.
"My patience is limited!"
Yagura suddenly spoke, his voice becoming extremely cold.
Mei Terumi's expression changed. She made a decision and let out a long sigh, "Give me some time, I will handle it!"
Seeing Yagura nod, Mei Terumi turned and waved at the head of the Hozuki clan.
Afterwards, the head of the Hozuki clan brought the high-level members of the Hozuki clan before the two.
Obito, who was remotely controlling Yagura, almost couldn't control his emotions and wanted to kill them himself.
But he wouldn't let the Hozuki clan off so easily.
He wanted to make them completely desperate!
He wanted to make the Hidden Mist Village completely desperate too!
This was the price they paid for killing Rin!
The head of the Hozuki clan looked at Mei Terumi's heavy expression and his heart sank, "What's wrong?"
Mei Terumi opened her mouth, a bit unable to speak.
Beside her, Yagura looked at her with a half-smile.
The eerie atmosphere made the head of the Hozuki clan feel uneasy.
Mei Terumi took a deep breath and whispered: "Yagura is being controlled, his condition to end the war is to exterminate the Hozuki clan!"
What?!
The head of the Hozuki clan and the high-level members were shocked.
They had long expected that Yagura might be controlled.
But they did not expect that the other party's goal was to destroy their Hozuki clan!
"Itachi agreed?!"
An elder of the Hozuki clan asked angrily.
"I have no choice, if I don't agree, he will have Yagura fully transform into the Tailed Beast here!"
Hiss!!!
The Hozuki clan members gasped.
Yagura was one of the few perfect jinchuriki in the ninja world, able to perfectly control the Tailed Beast and exert the Tailed Beast's power to the maximum.
Not to mention Yagura's own strength was already very strong!
And he was the Mizukage, who should have been the main force in the Hidden Mist Village to suppress the Three-Tails!
But now he had become an accomplice to the Three-Tails!
Most importantly, the others in the Hidden Mist Village now had huge chakra consumption and were simply unable to stop the Three-Tails!
And the jinchuriki of the Six-Tails, the other Tailed Beast in the village, was already on the verge of going berserk.
In other words, once the Three-Tails went berserk, no one in the current Hidden Mist Village could stop it!
The people of the Hozuki clan couldn't help but feel a bit desperate!
No wonder Mei Terumi would make such a choice.
If it were them, they would probably do the same.
"Do we have a chance if we act together?"
The head of the Hozuki clan stared coldly at Yagura and asked.
Mei Terumi thought for a while and finally shook her head.
If the head of the Hozuki clan and the others were still at their peak, they might be able to take down the Three-Tails at some cost.
But now...
"If only I had met Shi Yuan earlier!"
This thought couldn't help but flash through Mei Terumi's mind.
Then she could have obtained the Boil Release and Lava Release cultivation methods earlier, her strength would be far beyond what it is now, and she wouldn't have to be threatened by others!
Unfortunately, there are no "ifs".
The head of the Hozuki clan's heart sank.
But an elder of the Hozuki clan couldn't hold back and cursed angrily:
"Bastard, our Hozuki clan fully supported Itachi to become Mizukage, is this how Itachi repay us?"
Mei Terumi's expression turned cold instantly.
"Did I not agree to your conditions when Itachi helped me?"
In essence, her alliance with the Hozuki clan was just an exchange of interests.
The Hozuki clan helped her become Mizukage to realize her and her family's dreams.
And the Hozuki clan could return to the peak of the Hidden Mist Village.
Otherwise, how could the Hozuki clan help an outsider like her.
If not for her insistence, the Hozuki clan even wanted her to marry someone from the Hozuki clan.
"Itachi!"
The Hozuki clan elder had nothing to say.
At this time, the head of the Hozuki clan looked at Mei Terumi and said in a deep voice: "Have Itachi ever thought that even if our Hozuki clan is exterminated, he won't stop!"
Mei Terumi's expression changed slightly.
Yagura said calmly: "Since I promised, I will definitely stop!" ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
Mei Terumi looked at Yagura, then at the Hozuki clan head and others, feeling some hatred for her own lack of strength, otherwise she wouldn't be in such a difficult position.
If only Shi Yuan were here!
Mei Terumi was stunned. She suddenly thought that the enemy might know about the existence of Orochimaru and Shi Yuan.
Holding some expectations, Mei Terumi looked at Yagura and said in a deep voice: "If Itachi can't do it, I will have Orochimaru and Shi Yuan intervene in the battle!"
Shi Yuan?!
Obito's pupils shrank, and there was some anger in his heart.
This guy actually dared to threaten me?!
But it must be said that Shi Yuan did make him very wary.
His intuition told him never to come into contact with the other party.
"Must investigate that guy's intelligence clearly as soon as possible!"
Obito took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and controlled Yagura to say:
"Don't worry, as long as the Hozuki clan is exterminated, I will end the war!"
Mei Terumi felt relieved in her heart.
She had won the gamble.
Shi Yuan's reputation was indeed useful!
She knew that Orochimaru didn't have this kind of deterrent power; only those who knew Shi Yuan understood his terror and were wary of him!
"Mei Terumi, Itachi actually joined forces with Orochimaru?!"
The Hozuki clan head was shocked and angry.
This kind of joining forces with people outside the village was a major taboo.
Mei Terumi said calmly: "Do Itachi think Orochimaru can deter the person behind Yagura? Knowing too much is not good for Itachi!"
She lowered her voice and whispered:
"As long as Shi Yuan is willing to take action, your son Suigetsu might be saved!"
Hozuki Yetsuki's pupils shrank, and he breathed rapidly: "Are Itachi telling the truth?!"
He had already understood.
If the enemy was only Yagura and the person behind him, the Hozuki clan could still gamble, and perhaps more people could escape.
But when Mei Terumi also stood on the opposite side of them, the Hozuki clan had no way out.
Even if they fought for their lives, they could only bring more damage to the village, and they would have no possibility of surviving.
Because now the enemy of the Hozuki clan was the entire Hidden Mist Village!
So as long as he could save his son, it was enough!
"Of course it's true!"
Mei Terumi nodded confidently.
"Okay, I agree to Itachi!"
The Hozuki clan head's expression changed for a while, and finally he sighed and agreed powerlessly. ===== CHAPTER 71 =====
