Chapter 169: Terumi Mei

Start from the beginning
                                    

Meanwhile, Yu remained vigilant against Terumi Mei. In the anime, her two Kekkei Genkai, Lava Release and Boil Release, had formidable power. She could even dissolve the Susanoo of Uchiha Sasuke. Furthermore, Terumi Mei represented the strength of the entire Kirigakure Ninja Village. If possible, Yu didn't want to expose too many of his cards too early in front of her.

"Hehehe... speaking of which..."

Terumi Mei, suddenly focusing on Yu, let out a charming laugh, "I never expected the legendary Scarlet Yu, who can take on ten thousand foes alone, to be such a handsome young man..."

"If you grow a bit more, big sister might give you a soul-stirring and unforgettable kiss..."

Upon hearing this, gazing at the enchanting beauty Terumi Mei, Yu instinctively shifted his gaze to her sensual crimson lips. Thinking about her ability to unleash the all-dissolving Lava Release and the scorching Boil Release, Yu couldn't help but shudder.

"I believe we will meet again in the future. Save your fragrant kiss for me until then!"

After saying this, Yu burst into laughter. A circular gate suddenly opened in the calm air behind him, and he disappeared into it.

'What is this?!'

Seeing Yu vanish in such a mysterious way, Terumi Mei's pupils contracted. The expression on her face became even more wary. "Yakushi Yu, what a formidable guy..."

"Should we just let these Konoha ninjas go like this?"

"If we can capture or kill them, it should be more advantageous for our plan, right?"

Watching Yu and Shisui, who caused this chaos in Kirigakure, leave, a Mist ninja behind Terumi Mei couldn't help but speak up.

"Fool, didn't you see those ninjas turned into ice sculptures just now?!"

"With the legendary Scarlet Yu and the Uchiha Clan's Body Flicker Shisui, do you really think that we, with only this many ninjas, can detain them?"

As soon as the Mist ninja finished speaking, another Mist ninja beside him immediately delivered a swift blow to him.

"Issue the order: Konoha ninja Yakushi Yu infiltrated Kirigakure, and while gathering intelligence killed the Fourth Mizukage Yagura. Everyone is to pursue with full force."

At this moment, Terumi Mei, who had turned around, had an icy expression on her face. Indifferently, she gave orders to the Mist ninjas in front of her.

"It's time to go back and prepare..."

"The candidacy for the Fifth Mizukage, I am destined to win."

...

Three days later, in a small town on the border of the Water Country.

On this day, the Water Country witnessed another snowfall, delicate snowflakes drifting down like goose feathers. The ground accumulated a thick layer of snow, shimmering like silver.

Brushing off the snow from his clothes, Yu walked into a nearby tavern, took off his straw hat, revealing his snowy-white hair and handsome face.

"Boss, please give me some dangos and a serving of taiyaki."

After taking a seat in the tavern's hall, Yu casually ordered a few snacks from the owner.

The news of Yu killing the Fourth Mizukage Yagura in the past three days spread like a plague throughout the Water Country, and the shinobi world was abuzz with this information.

However, strangely, although the wanted notice issued by Kirigakure seemed severe, the number of ninjas conducting searches and pursuits within the borders of the Water Country did not increase in the past few days. Instead, Kirigakure village was busy with significant reforms.

"I've been searching for three days straight, but still no clues..."

Sitting in the tavern, Yu couldn't help but sigh. For the past three days, he had been searching throughout the Water Country for information about Haku or Kimimaro, but to no avail.

Indeed, in such a vast country, randomly encountering someone on the streets was a scenario only seen in anime. Fortunately, after years of internal conflict, the Water Country was currently undergoing reforms following the death of the Fourth Mizukage Yagura. Otherwise, as the culprit who killed the Mizukage and many Mist ninjas, he would have been hunted down numerous times in the streets and alleys of the Water Country.

"Hey, did you hear about what happened a few days ago?"

"Of course, I heard! The Water Country has already issued a wanted order!"

At this moment, the hushed conversation of nearby ordinary patrons discussing recent events caught Yu's attention.
