Chapter 100: , the winner is the king, the loser is the bandit

At the same time, above the Lake of Mist, the barrier originally used to divide the battlefield and trap the Mizukage collapsed with a roar in an instant.

On the shore of the lake, the sounds of explosions caused by the fighting followed one after another.

Clearly, the situation on the shore was not optimistic, otherwise, the barrier wouldn't have been unable to continue to be maintained.

This also announced one thing: it was almost impossible for Juzo Yagura to wait for support from the Kaguya clan on the shore.

Juzo Yagura's expression changed from surprise to gloom, and from gloom to calm.

Now that things had come to this, what was the use of panic? It would only make people laugh.

"Do you really think you have me cornered like this?"

Juzo Yagura said coldly, a cruel smile appearing on the corner of his mouth again.

"Hmm?"

Hozuki Mangetsu tilted his head in confusion, looking at Juzo Yagura, not understanding where the other side's confidence came from.

"Listen to me, all of this is just a means for the other side to strike at our morale."

"What Rock ninjas, what Mist ninjas, it's all bullshit."

"The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit."

"Do you think that if you defect now, you can escape the Mizukage's reckoning afterward?"

"Attack!"

Juzo Yagura just glanced coldly at Hozuki Mangetsu, his expression indifferent, with no intention of explaining.

Instead, he turned around and shouted to the group of Anbu ninjas behind him.

Although Juzo Yagura's method was simple, it played a significant role, forcibly stopping the morale that had been constantly declining.

The Anbu also understood that once Juzo Yagura fell, they would certainly not have a good end.

So now they could only go all the way to the dark with Juzo Yagura.

Seeing Juzo Yagura prepared to put up a desperate fight, Hozuki Mangetsu no longer harbored any illusions.

"Kill!"

With an order, the ninja armies of thousands on both sides clashed together.

Soldier against soldier, general against general, king against king.

Mizukage forces against Anbu.

Hozuki clan ninjas against Anbu elites.

Among the Seven Swordsmen.

Great Sword Samehada, short sword Executioner's Blade, long sword Sewing Needle against Twin Swords Hiramekarei, Blunt Sword Helmet Splitter, Blastsword Splash.

And the highest level of combat power was Hozuki Mangetsu against Juzo Yagura.

One was the unfathomable Anbu Leader who had long controlled the Anbu, and the other was the peerless genius now hailed as the "Number One Genius of the Mist," possessing the Second's Hydrification Kekkei Genkai.

The battle between the two would also influence the trend of the entire war.

On the shore, a fierce battle no less intense than the one in the center of the lake was also breaking out.

On the shore of the Lake of Mist, the saying "enemies meet, eyes turn red" was extremely appropriate here.

The moment the two sides met, there was no nonsense; the hot-tempered Kaguya clansmen had already rushed up.

For no other reason than that the opposite side was their sworn enemy — Mizunuki!

The grudge between the two clans could even be traced back to before the Hidden Mist Village was established, to the era when the Ninja World was still divided by ninja clans.

On the land of the Land of Water, Mizunuki and Kaguya were like the Senju and Uchiha of the Land of Fire.

The two clans fought each other endlessly, even reaching the point where it was either you die or I die.

Fortunately, after the mediation of the First Mizukage Byakuren, both sides temporarily extinguished their drums and joined the Hidden Mist Village led by Byakuren.

In fact, this was also because the leaders of both sides saw the situation clearly, knowing that "one village, one country" would inevitably become the trend.

If the pace of joining the ninja village was a little slow, they might be suppressed by their opponents in the future struggles within the ninja village.

It was also because of the grudge between the two sides that the position of "Kage" was given to the most suitable neutral person at the time, the First Mizukage Byakuren.

And facts proved that in terms of scheming and means, the Mizunuki clan might not be the strongest, but they were indeed three streets ahead of the Kaguya.

Through the efforts of the Mizunuki, Mizunuki Taki first became the bodyguard of the First to accumulate prestige, and then sat on the position of Anbu Leader on the condition of fully supporting the reforms of the Second.

Finally, Mizunuki Taki even ascended to the sky in one step and became the Third Mizukage.

Although the process seemed bumpy, by comparison, the advantage of the Mizunuki had completely overwhelmed the Kaguya.

It seemed that apart from being stubborn, the Kaguya clan had no other advantages.

To this day, the hatred between the two sides had not died out because they were in the same village and both shouldered the name "Mist Ninja."

Instead, it had reached a critical point where the conflict completely erupted.

Even without Juzo Yagura's defection, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before the Kaguya would have to forcibly raise the flag to resist under the targeting of Mizunuki Taki.

Back to the present, in terms of basic combat power, the Mizunuki side had the support of the Jonin squad leader Tian Yuanshi, and a large number of ninjas who originally belonged to the neutral faction were now standing on the Mizunuki side.

And on the Kaguya side, they were using the Anbu ninjas who had previously maintained the barrier to confront the forces of Tian Yuanshi.

Everyone knew that the most critical thing was still the confrontation between the sworn enemies Mizunuki and Kaguya.

Because both sides understood that this battle would be a battle betting on the fate of the clan, so neither side held anything back.

The Mizunuki side, under the order of the Mizukage, mobilized all the warriors in the clan.

Right now, facing the fierce Kaguya clan, especially Kaguya Ichiro who had "Kage"-level strength, in the absence of the clan leader, the Mizunuki seemed to have fallen into a disadvantage.

But the Mizunuki were not panicked at all; even without the clan leader, the Mizunuki still had another "pillar of the sea" in the clan.

— The Great Elder!

The Mizunuki Great Elder looked like an old man of sixty with white hair and beard, but no one would underestimate him because of his advanced age.

In his youth, the Great Elder was definitely a powerhouse with "Kage"-level combat power, but due to his age, his combat power had weakened.

But if it came to a battle with the Kaguya, the Great Elder would definitely risk his old life!

And beside the Great Elder was a youth of about twenty-something, whose appearance was somewhat similar to the Great Elder.

Mizunuki Eiro, the eldest son of the Great Elder, and also the biological brother of Mizunuki Mitsuhiko.

He was also a young powerhouse with the title of "Number One Genius of the Mizunuki."

Within the Mizunuki clan, there were already voices designating Mizunuki Eiro as the next clan leader.

"Eiro, let us father and son join hands to meet this Clan Leader Ichiro!" ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
