Chapter 232: It is inevitable to unify the ninja world.

Mei realized that Yeruashi was very different from ordinary men, although she didn't want to admit it.

She is completely confident in her figure and appearance, and has the best status among the girls, but if she compares her status with Yeruashi, they seem to be equal at most.

As for other aspects, she is the most talented Kirigakure ninja of this generation, as well as the only known ninja with two Kekkei Genkai, and she also became an Elite Jounin at the age of fifteen....

But he still doesn't compare to Yeruashi!

At the age of eleven, he became famous throughout the ninja world, and by the age of twelve, he became the Silver Sparkle of Konoha, striking terror into the hearts of ninja all over the world.

The Great Ninja Villages even issued an order forcing them to immediately abandon the mission and flee if they encountered the Silver Sparkle of Konoha!

He then disappeared for two years.

When he returned, he first destroyed Kirigakure's plan to destroy Konoha, and then single-handedly killed the Seven Mist Swordsmen and finally became the Fifth Hokage of Konoha.

This person is already a figure at the top of the ninja world.

Knowing the biography and looking at Yeruashi's appearance, it is not so hard to imagine how popular he is in Konoha, maybe the girls who are in love with him can really line up from the entrance of the Hokage's office to the outskirts of Konoha.

So looking at her behavior, you can really tell that she's the one who loves Yeruashi, and not the other way around....

In fact, there is logic in her words.

Mei couldn't refute this, because earlier, the thought had crossed her mind that if Kirigakure and Konoha had initiated peace talks, then she would have had the chance to be with Yeruashi.

"Very well."

"There's fish here, you can eat if you want, and if you're not hungry, we'll leave right away. I'm going through Kirigakure, and you can show me the way."

Yeruashi stood up and said calmly, then thought about it and looked at Mei with his blue-white eyes as he said, "Remember.... You don't even have to try to deliver the information to Kirigakure, it won't escape my eyes."

"..."

Mei hesitated for a moment, then slowly stood up.

She looked Yeruashi in the eyes and asked warily, thinking of something, "Your eyes? Is that the Byakugan?"

"You could tell."

Yeruashi turned around and strided away.

...

A couple of weeks later.

In the middle of the sea.

In one of the cabins of the merchant ship, Yeruashi was sitting looking at the sea through the small window.

In fact, he could go directly to Kirigakure with Mei, but he didn't, because the previous battle on the moon had definitely attracted the attention of Nagato and Obito, so they should have disappeared by now, and a direct arrival in Kirigakure might not bring any results.

Reaching Kirigakure by the normal route should take about a month, which is just enough time for the other side to let their guard down.

Also.

Since coming to this world, he had never been to the sea.

After a while, the sound of water coming out of the shower stopped and about a minute later, Mei entered the room, wrapped in a white towel.

The towel seemed a bit tight.

Or perhaps Mei had deliberately wrapped the towel so that it covered only the middle part of her body, exposing her smooth shoulders and slender legs.

She shook out her hair and stepped forward, saying, "Can you see the floor yet?"

Mei stepped up to the porthole and looked out at the endless sea.

Yeruashi lowered his head, stopped looking out the window and turned the page of the book, at the same time saying, "We should be there in a few hours."

"Even now, it's completely indifferent..."

Mei looked at Yeruashi and muttered irritably in her mind.

"Actually..."

Mei leaned over and pushed away the book in her hand, then said softly, "...Is the content of this book more interesting than me?"

Yeruashi closed the book and looked at Mei with a slight smile, saying, "Of course not, in fact, your content is much more interesting than the book, but the most delicious things should be left for last, right?"

"..."

At that moment, Mei felt that if she continued to tempt Yeruashi, she might not be able to resist herself.

She sighed and sat down on a chair, saying, "Sigh, why aren't we from the same village.... Do you intend to attack Kirigakure?"

In the past, Yeruashi had successfully invaded Amegakure and even Sunagakure alone, as well as destroying the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist

Therefore...

An attack on Kirigakure is quite possible, even though Yeruashi was alone.

"No!"

Yeruashi looked at Mei and shook his head, saying, "I'm not interested in attacking Kirigakure, I'm interested in some people who might be hiding in your village right now."

Mei frowned and asked suspiciously, "You mean there are outsiders hiding in Kirigakure? That's impossible. If something like this is really happening, why do you know about it and we don't?"

"It's just a guess."

Yeruashi opened the book again and read again.

Mei hesitated a bit and asked, "What is Konoha's attitude towards Kirigakure? You turned down our offer to enter into peace talks before"

"Neutral."

Yeruashi lazily replied, "The refusal to enter into peace talks was due to the fact that I was not satisfied with their demands. In fact, these peace talks don't matter much, I also don't see any point in fighting with you, because the ninja world will sooner or later be unified"

"Unified?"

Mei looked at Yeruashi in shock.

Yeruashi said calmly, "I don't like war, and the only way to end it is through unification. First I will unite all the small countries surrounding the Fire Country step by step, it shouldn't take long, a few years at most, and the next target will be the big countries."

Seeing that Yeruashi wasn't joking at all, but was extremely serious, Mei couldn't help but sigh.

Unify the ninja world!

If an ordinary person would say such a thing, they would simply be ridiculed, but those words, coming from the mouth of a person like Yeruashi, who is at the top of the ninja world and is the Fifth Hokage of Konoha, one of the Five Great Ninja Villages, can cause a storm all over the world!

"So that's what you're looking for? But if we remain enemies, then Kirigakure won't be able to see you unify the great countries, let alone the fact that there are still three Great Ninja Villages!"

Mei looked at Yeruashi suspiciously.

He chuckled, "Don't you realize this makes no sense at all? Do you think Kumogakure or Iwagakure can resist my power even when Suna couldn't? Or does Kirigakure still have that much confidence after losing the Seven Mist Swordsmen, Sanbi, and the Third Mizukage?"

Yeruashi's words made Mei blanch.

Indeed.

Sunagakure couldn't resist Yeruashi's power....

That means Kirigakure probably won't be able to either, because all the Mist Swordsmen have already fallen to Yeruashi.

"In that case... Why did you decide to enter into peace negotiations with Iwagakure?"

"I simply did not want the war to continue."

Yeruashi looked away from the book, looked at Mei and said, "The unification of the ninja world.... Inevitably, the question now is how exactly it will happen. I don't want the civilian population to suffer another world war again, so everything must happen gradually."

"You must understand that all countries have fundamental territorial and cultural differences that make true unity difficult, and a gradual merger may take years or even decades."

Yeruashi's words made Mei fall into deep thoughts.

At that moment, she suddenly realized that, although she was a genius who had become an Elite Jounin of Kirigakure at such a young age, and she and Yeruashi were about the same age, the problems that caught their attention were on completely different levels.

As expected, in the last couple of weeks, she had never sensed any hostility from Yeruashi towards her or Kirigakure.

She simply doesn't care about the conflicts between the Great Ninja Peoples.

She thinks of more stable methods to unite the ninja world.

Even now...

Yeruashi ponders whether to kill the Fourth Mizukage and support Mei as the Fifth Mizukage, which will greatly facilitate the absorption of the Water Country in the future, as well as reduce the likelihood of chaos and bloodshed.
