perhaps because there was no business, the hotel boss was dozing off on the hotel counter in boredom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And seeing the arrival of several people, a sharp light flashed in the hotel boss’s eyes, and he immediately greeted them enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bee glanced at the hotel boss before him—a thin, balding, worldly middle-aged man.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Soon, under the arrangement of the boss, the four people stayed in three rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke naturally wanted to live in a room alone, Kaguya Yuta lived next door to Mizunuki Ryosuke, and Bee and Troy lived in one room together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary hotel, ordinary boss, ordinary everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bee secretly made such a comment in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, the scenery outside the window was pitch black, and the time had come to the dimmest moment of the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it was very late, Mizunuki Ryosuke still had no intention of resting;

because he was too excited, his body was trembling uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is no need to mention the past; you will always be a part of the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The village will not forget the contributions you have made to the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A trace of praise flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke’s eyes, and his tone was also full of encouragement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chunin Honda, your son graduated from the ninja school last year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is very excellent and will surely become a good ninja in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry, the village will arrange for your family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But subsequently, Mizunuki Ryosuke said again, and the meaning in his words was unusual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Mizukage-sama!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honda Yuichi immediately responded, and a trace of complexity and peace flashed in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone like him, this was already the best result;

he naturally could not fully trust these spies who were far away from the emperor, so he naturally had to prepare some measures for counter-control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This conversation, combining kindness and power, was his appeasement to Honda Yuichi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Mizunuki Ryosuke succeeded as the Fourth Mizukage, there was once a difficult problem placed before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was, how should these Mist Anbu ninja who followed Yagura Karatachi to launch the rebellion be handled? Especially some die-hards who were once loyal to Yagura Karatachi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To this, Mizunuki Ryosuke chose to only execute the evil leaders, and the others were released directly on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so, the former Mist Mist Anbu was almost an iron bucket under Yagura Karatachi’s management, and a considerable part of the ninja within the Mist Anbu maintained a very close distance to Yagura Karatachi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to Mizunuki Ryosuke’s handling method, hundreds of people were still inevitably implicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this part of the ninja, Mizunuki Ryosuke made two arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who were stubborn were executed on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those who felt guilty and sincerely repented, Ryosuke gave them a chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, it happened to be the establishment of the White Shark Unit, and Mizunuki Ryosuke secretly recruited these ninja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Externally, the Mist would announce the death of these ninja; but in reality, these ninja would serve as scouts for the White Shark Unit, go to various countries to lurk, and provide intelligence for the White Shark Unit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honda Yuichi was one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the development over the years, the intelligence network of the White Shark Unit had already covered the entire ninja world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in a small country like the Land of Frost that no one cares about, there were White Shark members arranged in advance to lurk here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, the restaurant Mizunuki Ryosuke had been to before was also one of the strongholds of the White Shark Unit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryosuke went there specifically to give the intelligence content that needed to be investigated, giving the dark scouts of the White Shark Unit time to investigate the intelligence he needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was such an arrangement that allowed Mizunuki Ryosuke to obtain extremely important intelligence at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>",1191,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.539Z","2026-06-17T05:05:38.859Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","cf76fb53ae6eb4dc3ed079eccaee5074855114552a59d0d1af419de8018ae18e","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-288","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-286",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
