Chapter 15
Chapter 15, The Banquet At The Mizukage House
In the evening, Mizuki Ryosuke was invited to join Lian for a dinner at Mizuki Taki’s house.
The meaning of this meal is certainly not simple, and it even goes against Mizuki Ryosuke’s strategy of “moderation” to a certain extent.
But even so, Mizuki Ryosuke was invited to come.
Not for anything else, just for Lian to be happy.
Mizuki Ryosuke also met for the first time Mizuki Lian’s biological mother, Mizuki Rokka, a beautiful woman who still has a charm.
During the dinner, Mizuki Taki and Mizuki Rokka treated Ryosuke very politely.
Aside from everyone’s identities, the atmosphere at the dining table was a bit like the first time a prospective son-in-law came to the door.
Mizuki Taki never mentions the fact that the village has become a ninja, and just greets Mizuki Ryosuke in some trivial matters of life.
Mizuki Ryosuke’s performance was also flawless, making Mizuki Taki’s eyes a bit of admiration.
After dinner, Mizuki Ryosuke voluntarily resigned, but Mizuki Taki did not stay.
As the head of Mizukage and Mizuki, you should keep your distance from others.
Either way, Mizuki Taki has shown acceptance towards Ryosuke.
Even with Mizuki Lian as the bond, the relationship between the two should be in a gradual stage and should not be rushed.
At this point, Mizuki Ryosuke and Mizuki Taki have a full understanding.
…………
In the quaint and exquisite Japanese-style courtyard attic, Mizuki Taki looked at the back of Mizuki Ryosuke’s departure, and the luster in his eyes flickered.
Shadow, -kun Lin a village, and even the top of a country.
How many of the people who can hold the position of shadow are simple roles?
In the morning’s Jōnin exam, Mizuki Taki has already seen a lot of things in Mizuki Ryosuke’s body.
In the eyes of an old fox like Mizuki Taki, Mizuki Taki’s strength is not as simple as what he showed.
Combined with Mizuki Ryosuke’s age, it is definitely a “genius” level figure.
Thinking back on what happened to this young man recently, Mizuki Taki can basically tell.
This young man is “hiding clumsiness”.
How can there be a clan who has just awakened to the ice escape for a few days, and can create ninjutsu by himself?
This is like a primary school student who has just learned mathematics for a few days and invented the Pythagorean theorem by himself.
Talent is true, but again, this Bloodline may have been awakened for a long time.
Thinking of this, Mizuki Taki seemed to feel a mysterious veil covering the young man just now.
If it weren’t for the fact that he showed a little bit of cheating, Mizuki Taki didn’t even realize that there was such a genius hidden under his nose.
Although he sees it through, Mizuki Taki won’t say it.
Because he knew very well in his heart that the current situation of the Mizuki clan was definitely not very good.
After thinking about it for a while, Mizuki Taki seemed to have a general idea of what Mizuki Ryosuke was thinking.
This keen young man probably smelled the danger in the village, so he was reluctant to show his talent.
After all, guns are the first bird, and in today’s precarious Kirigakure, it seems that keeping a low profile is the best choice.
It was precisely because he vaguely guessed what Mizuki Ryosuke was thinking that he agreed to Maeda Motoji’s proposal to promote Ryosuke as a special Jōnin.
After all, being promoted to Jōnin at this age is indeed too much limelight.
Since this young man is not willing to stand on the cusp of the storm, Mizuki Taki is also willing to provide him with a layer of protection.
Thinking of this, Mizuki Taki couldn’t help but smile a little bitterly.
Originally, he just wanted to operate behind the scenes and let Mizuki have one more Jōnin. Fortunately, the village has more right to speak.
But it never occurred to me that a pillar was found.
“cough cough…”
After a sharp cough, Mizuki Taki looked at the Bloodline in the palm of his hand, and a hint of deepness flashed in his eyes.
I don’t know, how long can he last?
Suddenly, he turned around and wrote two names on a piece of white paper laid out in front of him.
They are Ryosuke and Hidero.
“Which of you can lead Mizuki further?”
Mizuki Taki muttered to himself, his eyes gradually sharpening.
In any case, as the patriarch of the Mizuki clan, he must stand on the last guard and try to create a good situation for his successors.
……………………………………
Back home, Mizuki Ryosuke also began to think about what had happened recently.
Combined with the latest information, Mizuki Ryosuke began to list the information of the Master in his hand.
Although the Mizuki family is now at the peak of Mist Shinobi, they have also made countless enemies in the village.
Due to Third Mizukage’s lack of control over the village, the village has now fallen into infighting with the Uzumaki, splitting into several factions.
A Jōnin promotion exam has exposed enough information.
Today’s Mist Shinobi.
In addition to the Mizukage faction, which symbolizes Mizukage and the Mizuki family, there is also the opposition of Yagura, Anbu.
Yagura is also the strongest challenger to the Mizukage position.
According to Mizuki Ryosuke’s judgment, Yutachi Yagura dared to challenge Mizukage’s authority so blatantly. His strength has at least reached the level of ‘shadow”, and he has another hole card in his hand, which can ensure that he can compete with Mizukage head-on.
I just don’t know, how is Yagura’s current state, has it been controlled?
Combining the original, Mizuki Ryosuke judged that Yagura definitely played a key role in Madara’s invasion of Mizuki.
At the same time, Jōnin’s squad leader Maeda Yuanshi and Mizukage also have obvious differences in positions. In Ryosuke’s judgment, this “old squad leader” should belong to the neutral faction.
But combined with some details of the Jōnin exam, Mizuki Ryosuke faintly felt that the Jōnin squad leader may have a tendency to fall towards Yagura.
This is not good news for Mizuki Ryosuke.
Finally, Mizuki Ryosuke also listed the other two camps “Ninja” and “Seven People”.
It’s just that the strength of these two sides did not appear at the Jōnin meeting, and Mizuki Ryosuke could not judge its position.
Ninja, refers to other ninja forces besides Mizuki and Kaguya, the attitude of Mizuki and Kaguya needless to say.
The most important thing is the attitude of the ghost lamp clan.
Ghost Lantern Clan, the head of Second Mizukage Ghost Lantern Huanyue, after the fall of Second Generation, Ghost Lantern Clan gradually faded out of sight.
But everyone knows that its power and strength are still good, occupying many key departments of Mist Shinobi.
The unique “hydration” Bloodline of the ghost lamp also makes the ghost lamp have a terrifying combat power in a special environment.
Many small ninja clans clinging tightly to the ghost lamp clan, forming a good force.
In the end, Mizuki Ryosuke made a big mark on “Seven People”.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Mist Shinobi’s elite ninja organization.
Established and developed by the Second Mizukage, which has now reached its peak, it is composed of seven Elite Jōnin with different ninja swords, and is an extremely powerful force.
The seven teamed up to fight against an ordinary Kage-level powerhouse.
Theoretically speaking, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen only obey the orders of Mizukage, but in reality, Mizuki Ryosuke has a big question mark as to whether Third Generation can command the Seven People.
After some thought, Mizuki Ryosuke judged that the situation is still not optimistic, and he must not stand on the bright side at this moment.
Steady hands, “moderate” to the end!
