Chapter 757 The last time

"The situation is roughly like this. According to the information collected by Shinobi, the Kingdom of Demons is over."

As Mei Ji finished her speech, everyone was in an uproar.

"Tens of millions of people in the Ghost Country are gone?"

Meiji took one look at this guy and wondered if she couldn't listen carefully to what he was saying.

"No, the general is talking about the millions of people around the capital of the Kingdom of Ghosts, not the whole country."

"Crazy! Sunagakure is simply crazy!"

"The situation must be brought under control as soon as possible to prevent them from acting recklessly!"

The crowd was excited and discussing the attack on Sunagakure.

Everything was prepared step by step, but suddenly something unexpected happened.

"Is our strength enough in the Kingdom of Demons? Sunagakure did not hesitate to sacrifice ordinary people and create a large number of human puppets. The strength will inevitably increase sharply. To be on the safe side, it is necessary to conduct tests and attacks cautiously. Anyway, the Kingdom of Demons is gone. There’s no point in worrying now.”

"What are you talking about? The general has already said that human puppets are extremely contagious like a plague. If they are not stopped as soon as possible, these people will not die. Moreover, their scale will increase after absorbing enough materials. A sudden surge will become more difficult the further it goes back."

During the meeting, the jounin representatives had a heated debate, and finally the fourth generation Hokage made the decision.

"Mobilize troops and go to the Kingdom of Ghosts to resolve the human puppet incident as soon as possible. The Sunagakure puppets must be firmly sealed in the Kingdom of Ghosts and must not cross the thunder pond."

This is the worst situation Konoha can accept.

Tsunade could already see the devastation caused by the human puppet passing through.

All materials will become part of the human puppet and be swallowed up by the iron sand puppet, including the soul and flesh of living creatures.

There is iron in the blood, it's very simple common sense.

"That's it, the meeting is over." After Tsunade set the tone, she turned to look at Miki and said, "You stay."

Miki glanced at Tsunade and nodded slightly.

Everyone in the conference room left one after another to carry out the work at hand. Hitomi and Jiri looked at Miki worriedly and finally closed the door.

Meiji and Tsunade were left alone in the entire spacious conference room. For a while, no one spoke.

The atmosphere was eerily silent.

Tsunade didn't speak, and Miki didn't bother to ask, sitting calmly in her seat.

Time passed minute by minute, and after a long suffocating silence, Tsunade took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice: "You already knew, right, the anomalies in the Kingdom of Ghosts."

"So." Mei Ji chuckled.

"Yes, it's impossible to hide it from you. Your insect swarm is everywhere." Tsunade said: "Millions of people disappeared overnight. It is impossible not to be aware of such a terrifying anomaly."

"Correction." Meiji said: "The specific number of registered people is 1,367,854, which does not include about 800,000 black households, including slaves and servants of noble families who smuggled in Immigration abducts laborers and other non-ghost foreigners.”

"Sure enough, you know very well." Tsunade said through gritted teeth.

"That's the data from seven years ago." Mei Ji said: "In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it doubled. What do you want to explain? You might as well say it directly."

"So." Tsunade looked at Miki and said, "You did it on purpose and allowed the situation in the Kingdom of Demons to develop."

It can't be said that it was not intentional. In the Kingdom of Ghosts, no, what Sunagakure wanted to do, Meiji has always known. The development of human puppets was promoted step by step by her, and she was also forced step by step.

But when things got to this point, it can only be said that they were beyond Meiji's control and out of control.

Miki underestimated the impact on Chiyo's mind after being transformed into a puppet, and she was truly insane.

"You borrowed their hands to get research results that are inconvenient for you." Tsunade looked at Miki, suppressing her anger and said, "What do millions of people look like to you? Are they just a series of cold numbers? !”

"So, what do you want to hear my excuses?" Meiji looked at Tsunade and asked, "A reason to let your conscience go?"

"This is your fault!!" Tsunade slapped the table angrily and stood up. With the loud noise, the solid wood round table split into pieces and fell to the ground.

"Then deal with me." Meiji sat calmly, holding her chin with one hand and said, "Do whatever you like."

"Do you think I dare not?!" Tsunade rushed up angrily, lifted up Miki's collar, and glared at Miki.

"It only screams fiercely, you try it." Mei Ji sneered, suppressing her anger in the sneer.

Outside the door, Hitomi was lying on the door looking at Zhili and blinking, Zhili looked indifferent.

Tsunade looked at Miki, gritted her teeth and shouted, "Admit your mistake!"

"Are you kidding me?" Mei Ji said, "It's not my fault. I can't control what Chiyo wants to do."

"What about Orochimaru!!" Tsunade roared, "You let him go!"

"It's so funny! I'm not his mother! Even if he is his mother! After a beating, will you listen to me?" Mei Ji said: "I don't know who issued the wanted order. This person is extremely dangerous. If he encounters it, he will be visible." It’s ridiculous to abandon the mission under such circumstances. If you don’t want to be arrested, just say so. You’re beating around the bush, who in Konoha doesn’t know that you two have had a good relationship since childhood, and half of the credit for this massacre of the city by puppets is due to you, Yondaime Hokage-sama.”

"Damn it!!" Tsunade's angry eyes were red, staring at Miki closely, and yelled: "Are you right! Insect girl!"

"Come on, you brain! You're so old. If you only have a forehead, you won't have a brain." Miki said coldly. She was held up by Tsunade, holding her feet up, and said, "Where's the evidence? I have evidence that I'm wrong." .”

"The entire ninja world is under your surveillance, there's no way you don't know it!"

No matter how familiar and intimate they are with each other, there are always some trump cards for which the details are unknown.

As for Miki's surveillance intelligence network, Tsunade only had a general understanding of the existence of such a thing, and what specific steps it could achieve. She only knew that it was very powerful.

"With such a huge movement and so many people dead, do you dare to say that you didn't notice anything unusual?"

"Isn't this the result of sitting back and watching!"

"The lives of millions of people! Not millions of bugs! How could they die quietly!"

"What are you doing! Are you just watching!"

"Why don't you stop it!"

"You stop it!!"

"Any questions!!"

With tears in her eyes, Tsunade kept roaring loudly and questioning Miki.

"You can obviously do it!"

"Why can't it be done at the critical moment!"

"Let go." Mei Ji said coldly.

"Answer me!" Tsunade didn't let go.

"Since you have the answer, why are you asking me?" Mei Ji said: "My answer is, if you can't do something, you can't do it. What explanation is needed for incompetence."

there are many reasons.

The reconnaissance swarm is not the combat swarm. Even if a raid is launched, regardless of whether people can be saved, the reconnaissance swarm itself will be finished quickly, and the progress will be accelerated by following Sunagakure.

In addition, most of Miki's energy was deployed throughout Konoha. As the Third Ninja War progressed and the territory expanded, the insect swarm also followed suit and entered the new territory to carry out preliminary work for comprehensive deployment.

Mei Ji lived a fulfilling life every day, working overtime to prepare for plowing the land and farming.

The power of the insect swarm in the Kingdom of Demons is limited, so it is okay to monitor daily situations. For example, in areas with high security levels, Sunagakure can be said to not miss a single mosquito. However, in ordinary households, hygiene and sanitation science is extremely well done. You have to worry about cockroaches when they come.

Especially the harsh environment deep underground.

Don't look at Miki digging holes under Konoha all day long. This can only be done with the support of rich resources on the ground.

In this way, it was only through protracted and sustained development that the current underground scale was formed.

There is no water source, no light, and the resources are extremely poor. In places like caves, no plants want to grow. All you can see are stones, not to mention what the insects eat and drink.

When the Kingdom of Ghosts is isolated and helpless, separated by the Kingdom of Rain and the Kingdom of Earth, without Meiji's support, no matter how many people are thrown in, they will starve to death.

You have to understand that in the wild environment, a single bug is at the bottom of the food chain and is the favorite protein of all kinds of birds.

If you want to develop to a certain scale, especially if you have to compete with other species for resources in the wild, you will either have to be fed boiling water by a child, or you will be exterminated regularly by Sunagakure's insect control project. If you are discovered, you can't fight back, you have to pretend. As a normal wild species, otherwise, Sunagakure would go crazy and dig three feet into the ground, and more people would die.

Without destroying the ecology of local species and forcing other animals to have nothing to eat, a certain amount of monitoring power can be left. Thanks to the strong adaptability of Mei Ji's insect swarm.

The most important point is that industrial damage to the environment and heavy industrial pollution have created a natural insect-proof circle, causing Mei Ji's insect swarm to lose the most important forest cover.

The Insect Swarm Network wants to extend along the Kingdom of Rain, and there is a large area of ​​rainforest in the middle that has not yet fully connected to the Insect Swarm network.

If she had that time to accompany Sunagakure to fight wits and courage, Meiji might as well go back to farming and let them continue to fight wits and courage with the air, wasting human and material resources.

By the time Miki realized something was wrong with Sunagakure's situation, it was already too late.

People did not die overnight, but in an organized and planned manner, in batches. With the daily routine air raids, there was always a group of people who could never get out of the air-raid shelters.

What could possibly be wrong with normal evacuation behavior? Mei Ji wished they could move faster to avoid being accidentally bombed.

As the number of people gradually decreased, Miki, who was still watching from a distance, would not have noticed anything unusual had it not been for the residents of the Ghost Country gradually realizing that something was wrong, making a final struggle to resist, and rioting.

What happened in the underground shelter of Sunagakure is a blind spot for Miki.

At first, the scout swarm wanted to sneak in to investigate, but they failed to break through the defense line, a kind of iron sand seemed to be everywhere.

There are many speculations. It is very possible that Sunagakure wants to run away and is transferring people to escape. It is not impossible to leave through the secret tunnel built underground. Without confirmation with his own eyes, any speculation is just a guess.

I honestly didn’t expect Sunagakure to be so outrageous as to kill everyone.

Miki can ask the country's former owner, the miko, but the miko is under the control of Sunagakure and is not easy to get close to.

The appearance of Scorpion proves that the miko has been under Chiyo's surveillance.

"Is this your answer?" Tsunade asked.

"Yes." Mei Ji replied.

Tsunade stared at Miki and let go of her hand.

Miki straightened her clothes and looked at Tsunade.

"This is the last time." Tsunade said, "I will forgive you."

"Happy." Mei Ji chuckled and said, "This is the last time. I accept your magnanimity."

"Don't be too presumptuous! Insect Princess!" Tsunade said coldly: "I am the Hokage! Don't think that I will always pamper you!"

Do you think I am a pot shadow? ?

Put any blame on me!

Good for you!

"Yes, yes! Princess Tsunade!" Meiji said with an angry smile.

Tsunade turned away and kicked the door open angrily.

In the corridor, Hitomi shrank her head and did not dare to look at Tsunade.

Jiri and Tsunade looked at each other, their dagger-like eyes clashing, sparks flying.

Little Pepper walked up to Tsunade, shrinking her head like a quail and not daring to make a sound, and she didn't dare to express her anger.
