Chapter 14

Yudao, who woke up, dropped only a short phrase, but it radiated unshakable confidence and an aura of authority!

– The Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei greets the First Mizukage Yudao-sama! – May bowed her knee respectfully and excitedly.

– The Commander of the Shinobi Hunter Squad greets the First Mizukage Yudao-sama! – Ao then bent his knee; even the commander of the special Anbu squad could not help but be excited at such a moment.

And then Yudao slowly looked towards the speakers.

Terumi Mei, Ao, Orochimaru and the Sound Four!

Painfully familiar and at the same time alien faces.

How many years did he spend in captivity?

M? Hashirama is also under the control of Edo Tensei!

At first, Yudao was taken aback by the sight of Senju with blackened eyes, but he quickly realized what exactly was happening here.

His eyebrows involuntarily rose at the thought of Hashirama's help.

– Already the Fifth Mizukage? I was hoping for the Second, or at least the Third, it seems Kirigakure is not what it used to be... - the First Mizukage shook his head with clear dissatisfaction in his voice.

It wasn't that he wanted to intimidate Mei, it was just that these were his true feelings at that moment.

He is faced with the task of uniting the Shinobi world, which is impossible to achieve by force alone.

Time, place, people... one is inseparable from the other.

The history of the shinobi world knows two periods when it is most difficult to unite it.

The first is the end of the Age of Warring States, because then the inevitable clash with Madara and Hashirama will occur.

No matter how strong you are, these unscrupulous cheaters will sooner or later find a way to finish you off on their home court.

Well, the second - after the start of the plot, at first glance it may seem that this era does not have dominant figures, but the situation in the world is unusually stable, and the great shinobi villages are flourishing like never before and accumulating strength.

If he tries to conquer the world at such a time, all shinobi villages will turn against him!

In addition, cheaters of the new era - Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke are just on the verge of connecting to the server, in addition, old cheaters - Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama can also return to the server.

There is also Black Zetsu, damn him, waiting in the shadows for hundreds of years.

Therefore, Yudao rightly considered this period of history even more troublesome than the Age of Warring States.

At the moment, it was not clear to the First Mizukage exactly when it was unsealed. But the presence of the Fifth Mizukage Terumi Mei and the offended Sound Four behind Orochimaru set certain limits.

The best moment to unite the world was the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars. Because only then was Konoha's dominance in doubt, and the rest of the era belonged to them.

This is precisely what Yudao was dissatisfied with.

He ceased to be that naive and kind schoolboy from the modern world, after going through the Age of Warring States, where blood flowed in rivers, and human life was not worth a penny.

Even when familiar anime characters appeared in front of him, including one of his favorite female characters, Terumi Mei. He saw them as nothing more than ordinary people of flesh and blood, without the slightest excitement, as if something completely ordinary had happened.

After his strength, status, and temperament went through drastic changes, the so-called feeling of closeness to anime characters became nothing more than a way to reminisce about the past.

Ao and Mei will immediately use their fists if anyone else dares to say that Kiri is not what she used to be. But they did not even dare to squeak in front of Yudao, instead bowing their heads even lower in shame.

To be honest, now Kiri is really not at all what it used to be, especially when compared with the times of the reign of the First Mizukage.

The current Kiri only competes with Suna for the title of the last and penultimate village among the five great shinobi villages.

But if Suna is located in the middle of the desert, then their resources, even if desired, cannot be called meager.

Therefore, equality with Suna perfectly demonstrates the complete failure of Kiri in all areas of activity.

From Mei and Ao's bashful reaction, Yudao's face darkened even more, it looks like he hit the bull's eye.

- Rise up... The Mizukage should and must be ashamed of the poor state of his village, but never kneel! – he turned to May, who was kneeling, with notes of dissatisfaction in his voice.

After which she blushed and hastily stood at attention, like a naughty girl.

Ao, who continued to kneel, found this behavior of the Fifth Mizukage very funny. In fact, this was the first time he had seen the mature Mei act like a timid girl.

At this moment, Yudao finally managed to get a good look at the Fifth Mizukage - a rather tall woman, just a head shorter than him, and very beautiful, much more beautiful than in the anime.

"Thank you, Fifth Mizukage..." for no apparent reason Yudao smiled at the rather nervous Mei.

Then, without waiting for an answer, he turned his gaze to Ao and with a gesture of his hand ordered him to rise from his knees.

And the very next moment he disappeared, appearing right in front of Orochimaru.

It's crazy how fast it is!

Not a single trace of chakra, is it really pure Taijutsu?

Orochimaru's snake eyes narrowed sharply at the sudden appearance of the First Mizukage up close.

- What's your name? – Yudao smiled widely, looking at the shocked face of the good old Sannin.
