Six days later.
Kaito once again came to the secret room in Elder Genji's home.
However, this time, only Kaito and Ao were waiting here, Gonbei was also waiting outside the door, and the old man who was most looking forward to seeing Elder Genji again was no longer there.
Time passed minute by minute, but Kaito and the others did not show any anxiety. They just sat quietly in front of the door waiting.
Until there was a slight cracking sound.
The intricate sealing runes on the secret room's door suddenly showed some cracks, which gradually expanded until they covered the entire door.
Suddenly, all the dark runes turned into points of glow and shattered and dissipated, as if they had never existed.
Seeing this, the two stood up and waited.
The next second, the heavy door was slowly pushed open from the inside, and the figure of Elder Genji appeared in front of the two.
At the same time, in the room behind him, one can vaguely see a huge pottery jar covered with complex sealing runes. This must be the container that Elder Genji wants to protect and in which the Three Tails is sealed.
"Elder Genji."
Kaito and Ao both saluted together.
The elder Genji, who had just walked out of the seal, had a very calm expression on his face, as if he was not at all surprised that Kaito would be waiting for him here.
But when Elder Genji looked around, he did not see his old friend, and a slightly lonely look appeared in his eyes.
However, in response to the greetings from the two, Elder Genji immediately suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart, nodded to Kaito, and spoke with satisfaction.
"You did a great job, Kaito."
However, Kaito did not show any joy at the praise from Elder Genji. He just quietly took out a scroll, walked up to Elder Genji and handed it to him.
"These are... These are the last words left by the Third Mizukage-sama."
Kaito, who had been trying to remain calm, finally couldn't suppress a hint of sadness on his face when he said the last two words.
Similarly, looking at the ordinary scroll handed over by Kaito, Elder Genji raised his hand several times but failed to take it.
Just now, when Elder Genji saw that the people waiting for him outside the seal were Kaito and Ao, he knew who the winner of Yagura rebellion was.
Although he did not see the Third Mizukage, the elder Genji once comforted himself by thinking that the other party might have been injured or unable to attend for some other reason.
But the scroll that Kaito took out still broke the old man's fantasy.
However, Elder Genji had seen many storms and separations, so he calmed down his emotions first, took the scroll from Kaito, and slowly opened it.
In fact, both Kaito and Ao had read this suicide note on the day the Third Mizukage died.
The content is not very long, all of it is the Third Mizukage's arrangements for his death and his suggestions for the village.
The most important thing is that the Third Mizukage hopes that his death will not be made public first in order to stabilize people's hearts. After waiting for the elder Genji to lift the seal, he will temporarily handle all affairs in the village, and Kaito will assist in his studies.
He also suggested that Ao to serve as the Three-Tails Jinchuriki and launch an attack on the Konoha forces together with Kaito, and explained how to fight this battle and to what extent.
It is suggested that his death be announced after the war is over and a peace treaty is officially signed with Konohagakure, with Kaito taking over as the Fourth Mizukage.
The rest of the long content is all about reminding Kaito how to balance the ninja clan and civilian ninjas, how to handle the relationship with the daimyo's mansion, the need to pay attention to the training of the new generation of ninjas, and the need to pay attention to the improvement of one's own strength, and so on, including various experiences and suggestions.
And it was written to the elder Genji, hoping that he could help Kaito become an excellent Mizukage.
It seemed that this usually resolute old man suddenly became verbose and weak before his death, fearing that he had forgotten or missed something he wanted to say.
It seemed that he felt that the ten days of teaching by example was too short, and he wanted to put all his expectations in this scroll of his last words.
Time flows slowly.
Kaito and the other person just stood quietly in the room, waiting for Elder Genji to finish reading the contents of the scroll.
Until Elder Genji finished reading the contents of the scroll, he slowly closed it.
"Old man, do I need you to tell me?"
Elder Genji muttered to himself, as if he was complaining about his old friend for worrying too much, or as if he was reminiscing about something.
But then, Elder Genji regained his spirit and looked at Kaito and the others.
"How many people know about Third Mizukage's death now?"
The two looked at each other, and finally it was Kaito who answered.
"At present, only the two of us and your bodyguard Gonbei know about it. In the past few days, Ao-sensei has been disguised as the Third Mizukage-sama to work, but he only appears for a few hours every day."
This was all thanks to the operations carried out by Yagura when the Third Mizukage was controlled by illusion, so the others did not have too many doubts about the Third Mizukage's reduced outings.
Kaito thought about it and continued.
"The Third Mizukage-sama's body is temporarily sealed in the scroll and I am keeping it."
In fact, Kaito placed the scroll that sealed the body in the "secret space". Kaito was not at ease placing such an important scroll anywhere else.
After hearing this, Elder Genji just nodded silently. The person was no longer there, and there was no point in continuing to ask where the body was. Besides, with Kaito keeping it, it would be safe.
Then Elder Genji asked about the main business, what Kaito and others had experienced in the past few days.
Kaito simply started from the previous "Mission Zero" and told Elder Genji in detail what everyone had done during this period.
At the same time, having come to this point, Kaito did not hold back too much.
This includes the fact that the Third Mizukage was controlled possibly because of Konoha's Sharingan, as well as the two abilities of Wood Style and Mangekyō Sharingan that Obito had previously demonstrated, and the fact that the White Zetsu hidden in the village was codenamed "Madara". A series of things that Kaito has been able to confirm, in addition to in-depth information such as the identities of Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito's mastermind, all of which have been revealed.
Even Ao was hearing a lot of this information for the first time.
After hearing this, the two of them immediately came out of their grief over the death of the Third Mizukage and their expressions became extremely solemn.
In fact, Kaito said these things just to make these two future village leaders alert.
How to fight against the so-called mastermind behind the ninja world still needs to be figured out by himself, otherwise Kaito would not have not even told the Third Mizukage. Knowing too much without sufficient strength will only add to his troubles.
However, Elder Genji proposed another idea.
"Could it be that Konoha is behind all this?"
