he couldn't just listen to Samui’s one-sided story.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The \"third party,\" of course, could only be the other person in the Cloud Ninja trio—the famous Cloud Ninja Magnet Release user, Toroi!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because he possessed the special bloodline limit \"Magnet Release,\" Toroi could be considered one of the core members of the Cloud Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although Toroi’s development of Magnet Release was very inefficient, it still gave him a level of strength in the ninja world that was better than some but worse than others.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because of this, the Magnet Release user Toroi still held some prestige in the Cloud Village; even Bee, the son of the Third Raikage, had always been relatively respectful toward Toroi.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Plus, Toroi’s reputation in the Cloud Village had always been good; even the Third Raikage had praised him as \"loyal and reliable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If it weren't for that, the task of guarding the Third Raikage’s son on a diplomatic mission to the Mist would never have fallen to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>No matter from which angle one looked at it, the best person for Bee to verify the matter regarding Samui and the Fourth Mizukage was the habitually silent ninja before him—Toroi!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Toroi, Samui, she...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What exactly is going on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Bee’s tone was somewhat hesitant, but his attitude was very serious as he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hearing this, Toroi, who had a square face, was somewhat silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He naturally understood \"what matter\" Bee was asking about.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Looking at the silent Toroi, a trace of depth flashed in Bee’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although Toroi hadn't said anything, in this situation, it was as if he had already said everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This eerie \"silence\" was the best explanation at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Sometimes, silence is the best answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After a long while, Bee let out a long breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Okay, I understand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Afterward, he said in a low voice, then closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As Bee slowly closed his eyes, Toroi, who was beside him, was somewhat bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He looked at Bee before him blankly, but soon he seemed to understand something as well, and simply fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although he vaguely felt that something was wrong, since Bee, the decision-maker, had already determined the facts, what need was there for him to continue speaking?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Being talkative wasn't his personality anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thus, the matter gradually developed in an eerie direction...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>To figure everything out, let us cut the scene to Toroi’s perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Regarding the fact that the Fourth Mizukage would meet with them after Bee’s injuries improved, Toroi was, of course, aware.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After all, unlike Bee, who was fighting Zabuza at the time, Toroi happened to be right next to Samui when she made the request to the Fourth Mizukage and witnessed the entire process.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As a warrior, Toroi didn't think much of it, only secretly rejoicing that their group’s goal had been achieved without any danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Afterward, Bee fell into a coma following the battle, and Toroi and Samui were responsible for taking care of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Until just now, Toroi hadn't thought much of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As time approached noon, Toroi went to the hospital cafeteria to get food for Samui; Toroi was actually quite satisfied with the food at the Mist Ninja Cat Hospital.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Just as Toroi was returning to the door of the hospital room with the lunchbox, Samui’s shout exploded in Toroi’s ears like a bolt from the blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The Fourth Mizukage did not force me, and it is absolutely not what you think!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"It really was my own wish!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Samui’s voice still lingered in Toroi’s mind, unable to dissipate for a long time...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At that time, the terrifying \"amount of information\" contained in that sentence directly caused the plate in Toroi’s hand to drop to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In an instant, countless \"details\" he had previously ignored flooded into Toroi’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>At this moment, he suddenly seemed to understand why the Fourth Mizukage, who had previously avoided them, had suddenly agreed to meet them.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Toroi recalled that on that day, Samui had invited him to watch the night view of the Mist Village together, but he had refused at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If Toroi remembered correctly, Samui had returned very late that day, and her face was full of exhaustion.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And what was even more terrifying to contemplate was that Toroi vaguely remembered that when Mizunuki Ryosuke agreed to Samui, he had mentioned something about having dinner with Samui.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In an instant, all the information was \"strung together\" by Toroi, combined with the sentence Samui had shouted at Bee.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Basically, Toroi had already \"hammered down\" everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The \"motive,\" \"time of the crime,\" and \"confession of the parties involved\" were all there; what else was there to say?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And the reason he didn't say a word when Bee asked him was, of course, because he was constantly \"sorting out the details\" and \"organizing his language\" in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But before he could think of how to say it, the impatient Bee seemed to have already determined something and closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And in Toroi’s eyes, he naturally wouldn't think that Bee had taken his \"silence\" as an answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He hadn't even said anything yet, for goodness' sake!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In his eyes, Bee acting this way was, of course, because Bee himself was already \"certain\" about the matter, and thus didn't need him to say anything more.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Seeing Bee so certain only reinforced Toroi’s belief in his own conjecture, and thus there was even less need for him to explain anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Everything completed a closed loop here.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Samui chased after the cat doctor from the Ninja Cat Hospital for a long time, seemingly wanting to reach out with her demonic claws to satisfy her own \"evil desires.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But faced with the cat doctor’s agile movements, Samui lost track of it in the hospital after just a few turns.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although she didn't get her wish, Samui wasn't disappointed; instead, she secretly planned how to arrange the remaining time in the Mist Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Suddenly, she recalled the girl she had met on the streets of the Mist Village that night.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I really don't know when I'll be able to meet her again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Samui sighed in her heart, a trace of gentleness flashing in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That was a young girl who looked like Snow White—dressed in white as pure as snow, with eyes full of affection; she was not only gentle in character but also warm to others, simply a girl symbolizing perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This girl, who looked like snow, had taken her to see every shop on the Mist’s shopping street in the shortest possible time; although she was a bit tired, it was the most fun Samui had ever had.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This was also the first time Samui knew that \"shopping\" was so physically and mentally draining.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Samui seemed to think of something funny and couldn't help but smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But what she didn't know was that, perhaps very soon, she would never be able to smile again.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But what she did not know was that, perhaps very soon, she would no longer be able to laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Chr\u002F>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>— Author's Notes —\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>·· Seeking flowers ·· ··\u003C\u002Fp>",1283,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.539Z","2026-06-17T09:00:23.248Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","0f3560deaff28be9dbb10b95edb34d6816081d24d1d9069e465c5f1d739d027f","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-274","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-272",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
