Actually no.
It'll be an interlude from an unrelated quest, which Velorien wants to advertise here.
There will be a large number of players with specific interests and spare time after Hazou dies, after all.

The interlude will not involve Marked for Death in some way.
Between my guess and faflec's, it's logically impossible for both of them to be wrong.

People, you're doing it wrong. We don't need to guess what interlude @Velorien had in mind when he was writing that post, we need to come up with an interlude idea so appealing to his tastes that he'll be forced to write it instead of his initial one.
As such, I think it's going to be a Zabuza x Ryugamine RomCom fanfiction co-written by Yukino and Ami, and it will end on a cliffhanger implying that the offended parties now for some reason blame the Gouketsu in general and Hazou in particular for this abomination.

Okay, but given some of the ideas I've seen floating around this thread (e.g. "if Akane is dead we're nuking Leaf and running off to join Akatsuki") I'm pretty sure Hazou is inside the walls pointed everywhere.

That's easy.
Interlude: In which Keiko torments Hazou with lots of innuendo and sharp weapons, hangs out with Tenten, intimidates everyone in the tournament to let her win (decided by a single roll), digs out Akane to tell her that she isn't looking very "youthful" right now, loses an arm wrestling match with Ryugamine and gets depressed over it, and rides Panjadrum for fun to get over it
Reasoning like that is how you get eaten by a blorp.

Ideas floating around this thread are not to be taken seriously.
I mean, what, do you expect Hazou to talk to Jiraya before giving an international speech? That'd be silly.

To be fair it still does makes a lot of sense. Capitalizing on your species natural toughness and enhancing it even further with jutsu is a valid start to basic training. You turn even your greenest rookies into living tanks and you help improve their odds of survival to long enough that they can develop offensive jutsu later on. Seems like a good way to go about it to me.

Take this madness away from here.
Let's do it.
A civilization from the mainland made first contact with the Elemental Nations(coincidentally Mist), thereby starting the unifying process for the EN.
They showed various marvels such as powered flight, the telegraph, and their own versions of ninja known as the blackbirds, causing the Kages to collectively piss their pants.
Then Jiraiya said, "Actually...I have a solution."

Whats this? Is it some sort of strategy for gathering and selling a whole bunch of salt?

Yes.
Edit:
(That's exactly what it is)
We want to generate literal tons of salt by heating seawater, and sell it.

Aye:
Given that explosives are trivial to make and do the "exothermic reaction" thing for a really good price (paper and ink) I think it wouldn't be beyond us to make seals that do this in a slightly more stable way and for a longer duration. Use those as a heat source.

Can someone make a list for me of all the reasons why tattooing seals on your skin is a really, really bad idea?
I am currently aware of the following:
1: Living skin has chakra in it. Therefore, the seals are permanently infused? Also, quite possibly you will somehow disrupt the chakra currents occurring in the seal if you don't somehow align them to your own chakra's natural or deliberate movements.
2: Living skin is not a stable medium. While it is apparently the same on a day to day basis, in actuality it is continually undergoing cycles of decay and replenishment, just like all living cells. This distorts the seal, inevitably leading to sealing failure.
3: If you have a sealing failure, that sealing failure happens IN YOUR SKIN. There is literally no level of safety precautions where this will be a good day for you.
I'd also like to ask:
What do we know about what makes something a seal? Sealing languages are unique to individual sealmasters, so that implies there are multiple variants that produce the same effect. Have we had the opportunity to examine a dozen different variations on the standard explosive tag? If so, are there any clear commonalities? What does the basic explosive tag look like, anyway? Can you just infuse any inked design with chakra and have it experience a sealing failure?

I just want to let you know- from now on I'll hear a kazoo everytime I read Hazou's name.
Thank you for this.

1, as far as I understand, is not relevant, but 2 is a big issue and 3 just makes it worse.
We're not too well-informed about the real practicality of non-standard sealing mediums, because Kagome tends to shut down those topics pretty quickly with stuff like 'it's insane don't do it unless you want to die'. We do know that Arikada managed to learn biosealing, largely by using other people as test subjects, and that (from what Kagome has told us) skin is not a stable medium and so if you put seals on yourself they're likely to fail and kill you.
My guess is that biosealing is perfectly viable if handled carefully, but you'd want to use any bioseals the same day or so to reduce the chance they fail on you.
Still, if we're looking at alternate seal mediums, I would like to again advocate printing press seals. They're incompatible with our current paradigm because the nuances of a brushstroke are meaningful in a way a stamp can't replicate, but if we can reinvent even just explosive seals in stamp-style we could collaborate with the Nara to make enough explosive seals to change the face of warfare again.
I suspect that programed looms weaving seals would be more practical than trying to get printing up to snuff.
Kagome made a point of mentioning that skin doesn't hold ink, but the librarian took him back to examine some ancient texts on animal hide. If the technique used is recoverable and shadows clones do the infusing he might be more open to the idea of an Iron Nerve wielder trying it.

"President of the United States". You will also frequently see "SCOTUS" for the US Supreme Court.
I know, but what does that has to do with my interlude idea which is about a first contact with a far more sophisticated civilization on the mainland?

I think, but I am not 100 % sure, you are using this as a way to say the US is not a sophisticated situation. I don't want to hit this with a 'funny' just in case you're expressing genuine confusion. So, just in case: I am pretty sure @Sentient Tree is suggesting it would be an amusing scenario to read about if the hivemind's walking Manhattan Project of a character to came face to face with the 'mainland' (real!Earth) country with the most nukes
