Chapter 293: What exactly did he understand?

After splitting into three groups, the one Mizunuki Ryosuke was least at ease about was Bee's side.

Ryosuke was very familiar with Kaguya Yuta's strength; under such a night curtain, Kaguya Yuta could undoubtedly bring his abilities to the extreme.

A hundred-plus Rock Hidden ninjas were just an appetizer.

Thus, after Mizunuki Ryosuke finished dealing with his own situation, he arrived at Bee's location.

And when he arrived, Bee's side had already finished dealing with things.

Only the last dozen or so ninjas were still putting up a desperate struggle.

Mizunuki Ryosuke did not choose to intervene but sat in mid-air, quietly waiting for the slaughter below to end.

"Pfft!!"

With a surge of blood rising to the sky, the purple lightning wrapped around Bee's hand-blade gradually dissipated.

Looking at the Rock Hidden corpses strewn across the tundra, a trace of pleasure flashed in the heart of Bee, who had been suppressed for so long.

Slashing a hundred-plus Rock Hidden ninjas in battle; such a record was very rare even on the battlefield between Rock Hidden and Cloud Hidden.

Just as Bee was looking at the tundra stained red with blood, speechless, the Ice Dragon King's massive body landed before Bee's eyes, accompanied by a gust of snowy wind.

"Lord Mizukage."

Bee greeted Mizunuki Ryosuke respectfully.

At this moment, his admiration for Mizunuki Ryosuke had reached an incomparable level.

Planning from a thousand miles away, predicting the enemy within a square inch.

That was exactly the kind of person Mizunuki Ryosuke was.

"Hurry up and clean this place up; it's time for us to withdraw."

Mizunuki Ryosuke said slowly, remaining indifferent to the severed limbs and corpses visible everywhere.

"Yes."

Bee lowered his head and said hurriedly.

Just as Bee intended to gather all the Rock Hidden corpses for cremation,

Mizunuki Ryosuke paced back and forth in the surroundings unhurriedly, as if admiring the scenery of the battlefield. As he walked, he suddenly stopped at one spot.

Then, a long spear made of condensed ice appeared in his hand.

Then, he slammed the ice spear into the ground, and a large number of ice spikes erupted from underground, many of which were stained with traces of blood.

Seeing this, Bee's pupils contracted slightly.

It turned out that at some point, several surviving Rock Hidden ninjas had hidden underground using Earth Style: Subterranean Voyage Jutsu, successfully deceiving Bee's eyes.

After dealing with everything, Mizunuki Ryosuke returned to the Ice Dragon King's back as calmly as if nothing had happened.

With Ryosuke's caution and stability, ensuring nothing went wrong was naturally the top priority.

So, the first thing he did upon arriving here was to scan the battlefield with thermal detection.

And it really did let him discover a few "fish that slipped through the net."

This made Ryosuke shake his head at Bee beside him; young people were just too impatient.

"Next time, remember to be more cautious."

Mizunuki Ryosuke's voice remained full of gentleness, but for some reason, recalling the expression Mizunuki Ryosuke had just now when he casually wiped out the last few survivors, a trace of chill appeared in Bee's heart.

"I understand, Lord Mizukage."

Bee nodded, and he had a new understanding of this Mizukage who planned with divine wisdom.

Unfathomable, meticulous, watertight.

Such a person was truly terrifying!

Finally, when the group arrived at Kaguya Yuta's side, even Bee felt a sense of discomfort in his heart.

They saw that across the entire battlefield, except for Kaguya Yuta, there wasn't a single intact object to be found.

If Bee's previous battle was only slightly tragic, then the scene before them was simply a living hell.

Among the corpses on the ground, none were intact; everywhere one looked, there were fragmented bodies, minced meat, and shattered bones.

Kaguya Yuta, looking like a demon from hell, was in this mountain of corpses and sea of blood, unhurriedly using his clothing as a rag to wipe the blood off his spinal bone.

"Yuta, how many times have I told you, pay attention to your appearance."

Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke couldn't help but cover his face with his hand.

This scene, which could be called a living hell, paired with Kaguya Yuta's appearance that could stop a baby from crying, was enough to scare any passerby on this tundra to death in the middle of the night.

The Kaguya clan had been famous for being "good at fighting" and "cruel" since the Warring States period. The reason the Kaguya had a reputation for being good at fighting and combative was inseparable from their Shikotsumyaku bloodline talent.

The way Shikotsumyaku was used determined that ninjas with this bloodline were born experts in close combat.

Such a mode of ability cultivated the Kaguya clan's combative and aggressive warrior character.

【Requesting flowers...】

The hard bones that could be extended anywhere allowed any part of a Kaguya ninja to become a sharp weapon for killing enemies.

The "visual shock" caused by using this "anti-human" bloodline was also inevitable.

The reputation for "cruelty" was because of the tragic battlefields where the Kaguya clan fought.

Describing this scene as one where villains weep and devils fall silent would not be an exaggeration.

Mizunuki Ryosuke knew well that sometimes "art style" determines perception; such a bloody battle scene was naturally detrimental to the external image of the Hidden Mist Village.

In normal times, Mizunuki Ryosuke often educated Kaguya Yuta, telling him to put effort into the Kaguya clan's fighting style, to try not to look so bloody and to become a bit more "aesthetic."

... 0

And it seemed that all his usual preaching had been in vain.

"You say, you're like this, what if you scare a passerby?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke complained while holding his head. Upon hearing this, Kaguya Yuta turned to look around. On the empty tundra, aside from the whistling cold wind and the few snowflakes in the air, there was nothing else.

Let alone passersby, there wouldn't even be a passing mouse.

Although Kaguya Yuta didn't say anything, his eyes already indicated his thoughts.

"Even if there are no passersby or children, scaring flowers and plants isn't good either, you know."

Looking at Kaguya Yuta's eyes, Ryosuke's eyelids twitched twice. To restore the majesty of the Mizukage, Mizunuki Ryosuke said again.

"Whoosh~"

A cold wind blew, and the vast white tundra still had only a vast expanse of snowy color.

Kaguya Yuta's gaze moved back and forth across the tundra, trying to find the "flowers and plants" Mizunuki Ryosuke spoke of, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find any sign of green.

Mizunuki Ryosuke: ""

Finally, it was Kaguya Yuta who broke the silence. He nodded righteously and spoke slowly.

"Yes, Lord Ryosuke!"

"I understand."

Kaguya Yuta nodded deeply, seemingly having gained some insight, and then his movements in wiping his spinal bone became even more vigorous, as if he wanted to wipe away every trace of blood on it.

Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke was somewhat silent.

What exactly did he understand?
