Chapter 253

As a Jonin Commander, perhaps one doesn't need high combat power, but one must be a person with an active mind and good political wisdom.

The ability to polish words is just the most basic thing.

Hearing Kuroshima Morita's words, Samui and Karui breathed a sigh of relief.

Since Kuroshima Morita said the Fourth Mizukage would return from the Daimyo of the Land of Water tomorrow, they only needed to wait until tomorrow to see the Fourth Mizukage smoothly.

In this way, it could be considered giving them an explanation.

But unlike Samui, who was new to the world, and Karui, who was simply a martial artist, Bee, as the next successor of Kumogakure, immediately heard the deep meaning in Kuroshima Morita's words.

The Fourth Mizukage would only "return," but it didn't necessarily mean he would see them.

Who knows, maybe tomorrow the Fourth Mizukage would have some "other things" again?

Thinking of this, the look in Bee's eyes had completely turned cold.

"That's fine, tomorrow at this same time."

"I will come to visit again!"

After speaking, Bee didn't look at Kuroshima Morita's expression anymore and turned to leave directly.

"Wait a moment, Bee..."

Seeing Bee's strength, Samui immediately got up to chase.

"Sorry!"

And Karui, who was silent on the side, also apologized to Kuroshima Morita and turned to chase after them.

Regarding this, Kuroshima Morita just smiled slightly, as if he didn't care.

At the same time, he began to think in his heart, what reason should he use to stall these three tomorrow?

That's right, Kuroshima Morita's so-called "reporting to the Mizukage" was just something he said casually.

Since Mizunuki Ryosuke had already stated that he intended to dampen Kumogakure's spirit, Kuroshima Morita naturally wouldn't bother Mizunuki Ryosuke with these "small matters" again.

This would make him, as a subordinate, seem too "unwise" and would only annoy Ryosuke.

Just now, he just went out for a walk and came back, and then casually used a reason to stall the three.

In fact, the Fourth Mizukage, Mizunuki Ryosuke, was sitting in his office at this moment.

The Mizukage's itinerary was top-secret intelligence, and the three, as people from another village, had absolutely no ability to know the Mizukage's true whereabouts.

So sometimes, refusal is enough to show an attitude, and the reason is just an excuse to stall.

And all of this was completely observed by Ryosuke in the Mizukage's office using the Mirror of Clarity.

Regarding this, Ryosuke just observed Bee's complexion, then smiled slightly and closed the picture in the mirror.

"Measure" doesn't just mean how much one can bear.

"Let me see how long you can endure."

If you don't take the initiative to make trouble, how can I take the opportunity to show Kirigakure's muscles?

Thinking of this, a hint of depth flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes.

Today, the plan to meet the Fourth Mizukage failed again.

Time passed bit by bit, and it entered the dead of night once again.

In the luxurious post house of Kirigakure, Bee looked at the blood-red full moon in the sky, and a hint of depth flashed in his eyes.

In the four days since coming to Kirigakure, whether it was the service attitude in the post house or the food, clothing, and expenses, Kirigakure's arrangements were impeccable.

In this aspect alone, Kirigakure could be said to have treated the three with great courtesy.

But at the same time, Bee's anxious business was basically at a stage where nothing had been done.

And at this moment, Bee had concluded that the Fourth Mizukage was deliberately avoiding him; if he continued like this, he might not be able to see the other party again even after dragging it out for another week, ten days, or even half a month.

Thinking of that unfathomable young man, a sense of powerlessness appeared in Bee's heart.

He suddenly remembered a sentence his father, the Third Raikage, had said when he was young.

"Bee, you must remember."

"The reason why we in Kumogakure can continue to this day is because of the 'martial spirit'."

"No matter when, you must not forget that you are a 'martial artist'."

The Third Raikage's words echoed in Bee's ears, and the look in Bee's eyes as he looked at the blood moon gradually became firm.

Yes, he was a martial artist.

Next, he planned to adopt a martial artist's way to handle it.

"Since the Fourth Mizukage doesn't want to see me, I'll find a way to make you come see me!"

Thinking of this, a hint of resolute aura appeared on Bee's body.

The next day, the Kumogakure trio appeared before Kuroshima Morita as usual.

This time, Bee's expression was more indifferent and calm than ever before.

"Commander Kuroshima, we can see Lord Mizukage today, right?"

This time, Bee didn't speak; it was Samui on the side who spoke.

But who knew, after hearing this, Kuroshima Morita showed a troubled and embarrassed expression.

"Sigh..."

"You might not know, but Lord Mizukage rules Kirigakure and is busy with official business."

"Last night, Lord Mizukage just returned to Kirigakure and heard that there was a problem with the factories around Kirigakure."

"He immediately ran off to inspect the situation at the factories without stopping."

Kuroshima Morita said very troubled, making the smile on Samui's face immediately become somewhat forced.

"Is, is that so..."

At this moment, even Samui's heart felt bursts of anger.

Factory trouble? Why didn't it happen early or late, but just at this time?

Even if Samui was stupid, she knew that this was most likely Kuroshima Morita's excuse.

"Okay, we understand."

After hearing Kuroshima Morita's explanation, Bee didn't have the slightest hesitation and turned to leave directly, his expression extremely indifferent.

Perhaps he had long expected that this would be the result.

"Bee..."

Samui raised her hand to stop Bee, but Bee, who was striding forward, walked extremely resolutely.

Watching Bee's resolute back, although there was some unwillingness and anger in her heart, Samui and Karui still hurriedly chased after him.

Because she was afraid that Bee would do something out of line.

Watching Bee leave, a hint of glint flashed in Kuroshima Morita's eyes.

"The thing Lord Mizukage is looking forward to seems to be happening..."

Kuroshima Morita said to himself in his heart, then shook his head and stopped caring.

His task had been completed, and naturally, someone would handle the subsequent matters.

After leaving the Mizukage Building, Bee rushed toward a direction without stopping.

And this direction was not the post house where the three were staying in Kirigakure.

"Bee, where are you going?"

"This is not the direction to the post house!"

Samui followed closely behind Bee, constantly questioning.

But who knew, Bee was like a turtle eating a weight, determined to walk in one direction.

Samui asked to no avail and could only follow Bee forward.

Not long after, a large training ground came into the eyes of the three.

"Bee, you wouldn't..."

Samui was shocked, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes.

The thing she was worried about finally happened.

"Bee, you can't!!!"

Samui still tried to pull Bee, but a wisp of blue-purple electric light suddenly burst out from Bee's body, and terrifying current accompanied by lightning chakra dissipated from Bee's body.

In an instant, Bee turned into a bolt of lightning and appeared in the middle of the training ground.

Under the blessing of the terrifying speed of the Lightning Release Armor, Bee's speed was so fast that people couldn't see clearly.

"Karui, hurry and stop Bee!"

Samui knew deeply that if Bee continued, it was very likely to cause some diplomatic incident.

But regarding this, the silent Karui just shook his head.

"Bee is a martial artist."

After saying four words faintly, Karui walked slowly to the edge of the training ground, looking at Bee standing in the middle of the training ground.

He is a martial artist, and martial artists have their own ways.

Looking at the deep meaning in Karui's eyes, Samui could only restrain the thoughts in her heart and look at Bee with worried eyes; now she could only believe that Bee would not mess everything up.

"You must not let anything happen, Bee..."

Samui prayed silently in her heart.
