Chapter 7: 07 Mei Terumi Exposed?
From between the lines, the female ninjas reading the diary could feel the disdain and contempt Night Star held for the Third Hokage.
It made sense.
The conflict between the Uchiha clan and the leadership of the Hidden Leaf Village was no longer a secret. Even ninjas from other villages had heard rumors about it.
Night Star looked straight into Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes and spoke in a calm and composed tone.
"I want to go to the battlefield."
Hearing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed.
This was truly good news.
He had recently been troubled about how to handle the relentless assaults from the Hidden Mist.
Even with Shisui Uchiha, it wasn't enough to completely turn the tide of the battle.
Most importantly, to guard against the restless Uchiha clan, Hiruzen Sarutobi dared not send elite ninjas like Kakashi Hatake to the front lines.
In fact, among the key individuals the village leadership was most wary of, aside from the current Uchiha clan leader, Fugaku, the second was none other than Night Star in front of him.
Now, with Night Star voluntarily requesting to go to the battlefield, it would alleviate the external pressure faced by the Hidden Leaf Village while temporarily calming the Uchiha clan.
This was simply a win-win situation, and Hiruzen Sarutobi had no reason to refuse.
"I'm gratified by your resolve."
Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded with satisfaction and then asked,
"Do you want to go to the Hidden Mist front line or the Hidden Cloud front line?"
[The Hidden Cloud front line or the Hidden Mist front line, that is indeed a question.]
Of course, Night Star wouldn't miss any opportunity to record in the diary.
Far away on the Hidden Mist front line, Mei Terumi, seeing this sentence appear in the diary, felt her heart skip a beat.
Although she had never met Night Star Uchiha, the words between the lines only conveyed two words:
Unstoppable.
What Mei Terumi truly feared was not that she couldn't deal with Night Star.
It was that someone as powerful as him, if they met on the battlefield, would force her to reveal everything without reservation.
In other words,
If she didn't use her Lava Release and Boil Release bloodline limits, she wouldn't stand a chance of winning.
It was well known that the Hidden Mist had a very clear stance on bloodline limit users.
Once discovered, they were to be killed without mercy.
Because of this, Mei Terumi had never used her Lava Release or Boil Release abilities on the battlefield, relying solely on Water Release for combat.
Even so, she was still one of the strongest among the younger generation of the Hidden Mist.
Coincidentally, on the Hidden Cloud front line, a beautiful girl with long braided hair and wheat-colored hair, exuding a cold and stunning aura, was also paying attention to the diary's content.
"Night Star Uchiha, I'd like to meet you on the battlefield."
"Lady Yugito, it's time to move out."
Hearing her subordinate's call, the beautiful girl closed the diary and tucked it into her chest, nodding slightly.
"Mm, let's aim to advance the front line by five more miles today."
She was none other than Yugito Nii, the Hidden Cloud Village's Two-Tails Jinchūriki.
Yugito was different from Mei Terumi.
She didn't need to hide her strength on the battlefield and could fight with her full power.
Although Yugito wasn't a perfect Jinchūriki like Killer Bee, who had perfect harmony with his tailed beast, she wasn't far off and could enter a tailed beast transformation at will.
The Hidden Cloud ninjas were naturally battle-hungry, and she was no exception.
Unlike Mei Terumi's concerns, Yugito was more eager to experience the thrill of encountering a powerful foe.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed new small lines of text appearing in the diary.
[The Hidden Cloud side has the Two-Tails Jinchūriki, Yugito. Judging by the current timeline, she probably hasn't become a perfect Jinchūriki yet.]
[The other Hidden Cloud ninjas are relatively mediocre.]
[As for the Hidden Mist, there's the new generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, and individuals like Kisame Hoshigaki.]
[The most notable one is undoubtedly Mei Terumi.]
Mei Terumi reading the diary: ?
Was her reputation really that significant? Even surpassing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and Kisame Hoshigaki?
[But for now, since the Mizukage is still Yagura, she probably doesn't dare to use her bloodline limit abilities on the battlefield.]
Seeing this, Mei Terumi's beautiful eyes revealed a look of shock.
Her possession of two bloodline limits was something she had never disclosed to anyone.
How did Night Star Uchiha know?
"This is bad."
Mei Terumi frowned and murmured to herself.
Having survived the "Bloody Mist" policy, she was naturally not just a beautiful but also a sharp-witted woman.
The diary's cover read "Exclusive Edition for Mei Terumi."
Combined with the notification sound she heard in her mind after finishing the first diary entry yesterday,
From these details, Mei Terumi vaguely deduced that she wasn't the only one with access to the diary.
"The secret I've kept hidden for so long… was it just exposed like this?"
At that moment, a new line of text appeared in the diary.
[Hmm… Since the Uchiha clan members are on the Hidden Mist side, I'll head to the Hidden Mist battlefield. I might as well see if there's anyone worth cultivating into a handy tool.]
Mei Terumi bit her lip lightly and muttered angrily to herself.
"Night Star Uchiha… just you wait!"
