Clap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Mizunuki Ryosuke clapped his hands gently, the entire underground became brightly lit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a secret room with a space of about two hundred square meters, which was divided into several parts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In one part, there were many instruments that Mizunuki Rikka and Mizunuki Ren did not understand but felt were powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle part was a space completely covered by ice crystals, occupying half of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the ice crystal space, one could still see the ice surface damaged by various ninjutsu attacks; it seemed this was where Mizunuki Ryosuke usually practiced ninjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the last part of the secret room, an extremely profound and complex array pattern was laid out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This huge array pattern occupied a full fifty square meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The complex patterns within it made the mother and daughter, who were just ordinary people, feel dizzy just looking at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Please vote, please support, thank you all!)\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>And in a corner of the secret room, there was a large amount of food and clean water, which looked enough to last for at least a month.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As early as his youth, Mizunuki Ryosuke had been using Earth Release to secretly build this underground secret room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This secret room was also a place where Mizunuki usually conducted material research, secret technique development, and ninjutsu practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Mizunuki Ryosuke had also laid out a giant stable reverse summoning array here that led directly outside the Mist Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the ninja world, there existed a secret technique used to summon ninja beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The caster could sign their name on the summoning scroll of the ninja beast to obtain the right to summon ninja beasts of that group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These summoned ninja beasts could exist as a ninja’s \"summoned beast\" and become a part of the ninja’s combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the ninjutsu that summoned ninja beasts from their habitat thousands of miles away to the ninja’s side was called Summoning Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similarly, not only could ninjas use Summoning Jutsu to summon ninja beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ninja beasts could also reverse-summon ninjas to the ninja beasts’ habitat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Summoning Jutsu could almost be said to be the most basic Space-Time Ninjutsu, and the restrictions on its use were also very high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Mizunuki Ryosuke’s research and analysis of Summoning Jutsu—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He finally laid out this large reverse summoning array in his basement, which could reverse-summon people within a certain range of the basement to a small house outside the Mist Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The summoning array optimized and upgraded by Mizunuki Ryosuke had one advantage: it did not require the caster and the subject to exist at both locations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is, it only needed to be activated in one direction to be summoned directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But similarly, this array also had flaws; once used, it would be destroyed on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be considered a one-time consumable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This reverse summoning array was a retreat Mizunuki Ryosuke left for himself, used as a means of escape when danger might arise in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, it was just right as a guarantee for Mizunuki Ren and Mizunuki Rikka’s survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at the location of the reverse summoning—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke had already arranged for three people in his squad to wait there in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the reverse summoning was truly triggered, Mizunuki Ren, who was summoned over, would definitely tell the three the specific situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The so-called three-day agreement and the order to \"go to the Mizunuki clan grounds to find the Great Elder\" would naturally become nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This could also be considered a kind of white lie by Mizunuki Ryosuke, and a form of protection for the three young people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of too much surprise, Mizunuki Ren’s small mouth was wide open, and her eyes were completely occupied by surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My lady, Sister Ren.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can take refuge here for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Within two days, if nothing happens, I will return.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I don't return within two days, you can use the reverse summoning array I laid out here to escape outside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke pointed to the complex array that was a full fifty square meters in size and said with a calm face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He made this arrangement because he was afraid of the worst-case scenario.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke’s words, Mizunuki Ren couldn't even care about being surprised for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Mizunuki Ryosuke’s hand, her clear eyes, like autumn water, filled with worry for Ryosuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ryosuke, what exactly is going on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Mizunuki Ren’s worried eyes, Ryosuke didn't know how to refuse for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Mizunuki Rikka who first pulled her daughter to her side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rikka, who had experienced many storms, understood that a good woman only needed to not add trouble to her man at such a time, letting the man go and do his work without any worries, and should not add burdens to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ren, don't worry, nothing will happen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let Ryosuke go and do it with his hands free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Trust Ryosuke.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Rikka’s comfort, Mizunuki Ren slowly let go of her hand, but the worry in her eyes had not yet faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ryosuke—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Promise me, you must come back safely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, everything turned into a deep entrustment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Mizunuki Ren like this, how could Ryosuke bear to refuse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nodding seriously, Mizunuki Ryosuke left the basement without looking back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by ensuring Ren was safe could Mizunuki Ryosuke let go and act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the two most important women in the entire Mizunuki family were staying in the safest place in the Mist Village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time came to dusk, and the sun was about to set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke had already restored his original appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to avoid any mistakes, he draped a black robe over his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, Mizunuki Ryosuke arrived at the location previously mentioned by Kaguya Yuta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, for such a risky thing, Mizunuki Ryosuke naturally could not go in person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What came was just a Water Clone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Mizunuki Ryosuke’s main body was hidden in the surroundings as a stranger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhongyong Code Article 4\": For risky things, besides leaving them to young people, you can also leave them to Water Clones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some twists and turns, the Water Clone followed the location mentioned by Kaguya Yuta and arrived in front of a plain-looking residential house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knocked on the door slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, a person also completely hidden in a gray robe opened the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Kaguya Yuta.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke lifted his black robe slightly, revealing the face under the black robe, and said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have come under the orders of the Mizukage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We meet again, Kaguya Yuta Jonin.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Mizunuki Ryosuke revealed his face, Kaguya Yuta showed a look of surprise in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't expect that the \"Mizukage\" would send the ninja he had a skirmish with during the Jonin exams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Kaguya Yuta’s eyes still carried a hint of embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, what happened during the Jonin exams was still fresh in his memory.\u003C\u002Fp>",1367,"2026-06-17T04:30:30.011Z","2026-06-17T05:05:37.377Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash
