Chapter 182: Natsuo's Matrimonial Mayhem

"Here we are." Natsuo withdrew his hand, this place was not far from the village where Itachi and Kisame were staying.

Itachi can go the rest of the way.

"Thank you, Natsuo." Itachi took a deep look at Natsuo, then slowly lowered his head. "Thank you very much..."

This thank you is not to thank you for your help in bringing him here, but to thank you for your help with the eye transplant and for allowing him to get closer to his family again despite all the sins he has committed.

"From now on I am willing to die for you and the clan if necessary..." Itachi said calmly, plus there was an unwavering determination in his gaze.

However, Natsuo simply gave Itachi a sidelong glance and said, "Willing to die, but not willing to call me father?"

Uchiha Itachi staggered, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at Natsuo with a wry smile. This guy...

But immediately, he became serious. "Natsuo, you have to be careful, Akatsuki... may start taking action soon."

Yes, it seems that Akatsuki really can no longer continue with its original plan and wait for the recovery of the Three Tails.

Akatsuki's original plan while awaiting the recovery of the Three Tails, was to obtain enough money to support their organization while providing mercenary services at prices well below the competition. This will make countries increasingly dependent on Akatsuki's services, corner the entire shinobi mission market, and eventually put all shinobi villages out of business because they can't compete with Akatsuki's prices.

Even this world war was considered by them as an opportunity to consume the power of each shinobi village and pave the way for Akatsuki's future actions.

But they didn't expect that there were so many high-level powers hidden in the shinobi world.

First, it was Natsuo, who possesses the perfect Susanoo, which left Obito, completely confused...

Then Terumi Mei appeared, who showed surprising combat power by being able to stop the perfect Susanoo for a while. This made Akatsuki very distrustful of her.

Anyway, within Akatsuki, except for Nagato himself, who still has a strong self-confidence, no one else has the confidence to take the Six-Tails of Kirigakure guarded by Terumi Mei.

It's okay... In the end Nagato will end up taking action. But then another problem appeared, the strongest Kazekage, Rasa

Another high level power that was able to fight against Natsuo's Susanoo, and although he lost he still demonstrated a very surprising level of power.

Akatsuki's morale was greatly affected again. Just like with Terumi Mei, they weren't sure if they could take One Tail away from Rasa.

"The Jinchuriki themselves are not weak. They often do not go out, and usually there are thousands of shinobi guarding the village. Once Akatsuki tries to snatch the tailed beast, they will not stand by and wait for death."

Itachi sighed softly. "Other than Terumi Mei and Rasa who are only under you, Akatsuki really doesn't have the confidence to catch the tailed beast smoothly."

"Due to all this, they have decided to take measures soon to prevent more unforeseen events from occurring."

After all, the Fourth Shinobi World War has just ended, even Sunagakure, which suffered the least damage and gained the greatest advantage, actually lost many shinobi and its strength has decreased.

Not to mention Kumogakure and Iwagakure, who had the biggest loss.

Won't they take advantage of the weakest period of the shinobi villages to act, are they really waiting for the resurrection of the Three Tails and for them to recover before taking action?

Uchiha Itachi sighed deeply.

In fact, there are only about two years left until the Three-Tails are resurrected, and the large shinobi villages will not be able to regain too much power in these two years. But even with this little time, Akatsuki does not dare to bet.

Sunagakure, Kirigakure and Konohagakure...

They are the biggest obstacle to capturing the Tailed Beasts. Although ordinary shinobi often find it difficult to participate in high-level battles, it's not really that they are helpless.

Shinobi are all mortal. Enough shinobi can kill someone of Kage level. The Third Raikage is a clear example of this.

Without Terumi Mei and Rasa, Akatsuki is not in a hurry and can quietly wait for the resurrection of Three Tails.

But Akatsuki now no longer dares to wait for even the slightest additional help.

Natsuo: "..."

'So, is it my influence again?'

"Natsuo, you have to be careful!" Uchiha Itachi said seriously. "Don't forget that the Nine Tails is in Konoha."

...

Although Itachi has reconciled with Sasuke and Mikoto, he still carries the stigma of murdering his clan. Although he personally doesn't care, Sasuke doesn't want to see his brother left in the dark. For this reason, he decided to become Hokage.

"If I become Hokage, I can pardon my brother, and even expose the orders of Third Hokage and Danzo, so that Itachi can return to Konoha openly." Sasuke's heart was burning. This is his next action goal!

He didn't even intend to ask Natsuo for help. Because Sasuke knows that forgiving Itachi, even though he has been manipulated by the Third Hokage and Danzo, is a selfish action on his part, after what Itachi did...

So after Itachi left, he quickly found Jiraiya, who was obsessed with the Uchiha club and couldn't get out of it, captured him, and then rushed him to begin his travels. Jiraiya's contacts are a great help for him to become Hokage.

After deciding to become the next Hokage, Sasuke now wants to start his journey with him more than Jiraiya himself.

Jiraiya was a little dazed, especially because he was a bit too addicted recently, so he didn't want to leave. He couldn't help but say: "Sasuke, I don't think the trip is urgent, why don't we stay a few more days?"

"You and I will be traveling for a long time, you won't miss your family, you won't want to be separated from them, right?"

Sasuke gave him a sideways look. 'Do you think I'm not willing to part with my family? You are the one who is not willing to part with the young women of the club.'

Sasuke, who is familiar with being a good wingman, simply said: "Uchiha Entertainment Street is good, but it only has escorts from Konoha. There are countless people outside the Village waiting to meet you!"

"The great Toad Sage shouldn't be limited to just one village, it wouldn't be fair to the girls of the world."

After saying nonsense, Sasuke added in a low voice: "I brought a lot of money, enough for you and me to party until we don't even know who we are."

Jiraiya's heart fluttered suddenly, and her eyes lit up. "You invite?"

"I invite!"

"Come on!" This is a trip that simply cannot be postponed any longer...

…

After the Shinobi World War ended and taking into account the agreement he made with Onoki, as well as Rasa's personality. Natsuo decided to begin searching more openly for Elite Jonin level kunoichi with a Kekkei Genkai or those with the potential to reach the Kage level throughout the Shinobi World to marry into the Uchiha clan.

Upon hearing this news, except for Onoki and Rasa, the senior leaders of the different villages were confused by the information.

You, Natsuo, are looking for marriage, so you came to our side?

Meanwhile in Kirigakure...

"Damn Natsuo, how many women do you want!" Terumi Mei said with fury in her eyes, as she read the report on Natsuo's actions. After all, he is also the man who took her body, how can he be such a womanizer?

However at this time.

"So Terumi Mei, what are you going to do?" An old voice sounded.

After hearing that voice Terumi Mei calmed down and replied: "Elder Genji, why are you here?"

Elder Genji spent much of his life contributing to the development of Kirigakure. Because of this he is as important within the village as his Mizukage and his advice is sought when it comes to the most important matters of the village, essentially making him the law of Kirigakure.

During the era of bloody mist, he was the one who united the Kiri-nin based on the prestige accumulated throughout his life.

No matter how the Fourth Mizukage controlled by Obito behaves like a monster, the fact that Kirigakure has managed to remain without being completely destroyed is mainly due to the contribution of this old man.

At the same time, he is also the strongest supporter of Terumi Mei.

"I came here to ask you about your decision..." Genji has not yet reached the level of looking like an old man about to die like in the Naruto Series. Although he is aging and speaks very slowly, his thinking is still clear.

"Are you going to continue not wanting to confront him?" Elder Genji said, looking at Terumi Mei's big belly.

She is different from Rasa, who hid the truth about her confrontation with Natsuo from everyone.

Although the matter between Terumi Mei and Natsuo is kept secret from almost all the Kiri-nin. But she did not hide it from this old man.

Because Terumi Mei knows that this old man only has Kirigakure's best interests at heart and would not use her situation to gain an advantage and increase his power.

At the same time, her belly is getting bigger and bigger, without this old man's cooperation, it will be difficult for her to hide it from others within Kirigakure...

Faced with Elder Genji's questioning, Terumi Mei remained silent.

But his silence also meant an affirmative answer to Elder Genji's question.

"Confused!" Elder Genji slammed his staff on the ground fiercely and scolded: "Terumi Mei, let me ask you, do you think your title of the strongest Mizukage is reliable?"

"Once someone starts having doubts about your battle against Natsuo or doesn't agree with your decisions, are you going to fight with your big belly?"

Terumi Mei was speechless.

Elder Genji sighed softly. "Young lady, do not affect your thinking by pride or jealousy."

"Uchiha Natsuo being obsessed with having children and reviving his clan is actually a good thing for us."

"And the fact that he continues to look for wives will allow our countries to contact him, thus reducing the likelihood that he will become the next Uchiha Madara and attack our villages for no reason."

"So you not only need to go with him, but also convince the kunoichi who meet the requirements to marry him." Genji said firmly. "This is the best way we have to survive under the suppression of invincible power!"

When faced with the interests of a nation or in this case a shinobi village, there are no moral principles, only benefits.

And this is the same attitude that the four major shinobi villages besides Konoha had towards the First Hokage and Uchiha Madara back then.

"I understand, Elder Genji." Terumi Mei took a deep breath. "I will make arrangements... In another month, after my child is born, I will take care of my body and after recovering. I will go with the baby to visit him."

"I'll try to live in the Uchiha clan for a while."

Elder Genji smiled when he heard this. Now Terumi Mei has fully grown up. 'I can hand over the responsibility of the Mizukage completely to her.'

On the other hand, the other large shinobi villages also took the same approach.

Just as Elder Genji said, when faced with someone who can destroy a country single-handedly, they can only look for ways to ensure their safety.

Of course shinobi villages also have different ideas, but their actions are very consistent.

The result is…

The kunoichi will come to the Uchiha clan from all sides.
