although the ninjas in green uniforms clearly had higher combat skills, this was obviously the home field for the raincoat ninjas who were skilled in Water Release.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when she saw the forehead protectors of the raincoat ninjas, the girl was greatly shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These are Rain ninjas!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They really are Rain ninjas!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl was first shocked, and then overjoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in the \"place\" where she lived, Rain ninjas had long since become a thing of the past, replaced by a much larger and more terrifying organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, being able to see Rain ninjas meant one thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cause they had fought for had succeeded!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant that this really was the Land of Rain, and it was the Land of Rain where Rain ninjas still existed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, but the Leaf ninjas currently fighting the Rain ninjas were even better proof that everything the girl saw was not a dream, but real!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the girl’s memory, Rain ninjas fighting Leaf ninjas only happened within a certain period!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Phew...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl took a deep breath; since everything had been confirmed, her mission was complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she should go back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the girl began to form hand seals with a serious expression, following the technique she had learned previously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that this was a quite complex and lengthy technique; even with the girl’s not-so-slow speed, she spent several minutes forming the seals!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calculating it all, this technique probably had hundreds of seals!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the girl finished the seals with a serious face, waiting for the effect of the technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Phew~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pitter-patter...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold wind blew, making the girl, whose clothes were somewhat thin, shiver slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from the whistling of the cold wind and the pitter-patter of the rain, nothing happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl didn't believe it, thinking that something had gone wrong in one of her steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she began to form the seals solemnly once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten minutes later, the girl’s face was full of astonishment and panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her hands moved quickly again...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another ten minutes passed, and a trace of despair appeared in the girl’s black-and-white eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, she collapsed to the ground in complete despair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she seemed to have discovered something, and an extremely important thing at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's over, I can't go back...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl sat blankly on the spot, silent for a long time, constantly thinking in her mind about which step had gone wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoosh!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp wind blade flew from the distance, instantly cutting the low bush where the girl was hiding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a Wind Release technique released by a Leaf Genin; after missing the opponent, it accidentally landed on the girl’s hiding spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dazed girl was suddenly startled and hurriedly lowered her head; fortunately, she dodged in time, and the wind blade grazed her scalp, cutting off a few strands of her hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she dodged in time, she barely \"escaped a disaster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the bush the girl used for cover was cut in half, causing the girl to lose her cover and thus exposing her to the vision of both sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl stood there blankly, watching the fight that had stalled because of her sudden appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Phew...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rock ninja!?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rain ninja wearing a breathing mask looked at the earth-stone forehead protector on the girl’s head, his muffled voice clearly carrying a hint of surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the words \"Rock ninja\" fell, the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat subtle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rain ninjas quickly stopped and retreated, their expressions instantly becoming vigilant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Leaf ninjas on the other side also tacitly stopped and retreated, watching the girl vigilantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a scene where both sides are fighting, the most feared thing is a suddenly appearing \"third party.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially a \"third party\" who has had \"trouble\" with both sides and whose attitude is unknown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corner of the girl’s eye twitched twice, and a trace of confusion flashed across her lovely face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed she had been dragged into something incredible...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, the girl, who looked childish on the outside but was firm and brave on the inside, felt her almond eyes turn cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just two Chunin squads; she was in a bad mood anyway, so it would be good to vent her anger on these two squads!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before the girl could act, suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chunin, we're here to help you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the \"three parties\" were in a standoff, a shout suddenly came from the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of Rain ninjas, led by a Rain ninja, rushed over from the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That wasn't all; on the other side, seven or eight Leaf ninjas suddenly appeared from all directions, standing behind the Leaf squad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And among the Leaf ninjas, one person was wearing the green vest of a Leaf Jonin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scale of the fight had expanded once again!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out that the cause of this fight was an \"encounter battle\" that unfolded when the two sides met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two ninja squads were only performing reconnaissance missions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the moment they encountered the enemy, both sides tacitly entered \"call for help mode.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the battle time passed, because the two squads couldn't do anything to each other, reinforcements from both sides had arrived from the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, if the girl had just left, nothing would have happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just because she wasted a lot of time forming seals that she couldn't get away...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with the reinforcements from both sides, the situation fell into a strange standoff once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s brow twitched continuously, and her mood fell to the bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, she regretted immensely why she hadn't retreated just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, not only had she failed to \"go back,\" but she had also fallen into a crisis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although both sides had reinforcements, in reality, the strength of both sides had fallen into a strange \"equilibrium\" once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were many Rain ninjas, their strength was not as good as the Leaf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were few Leaf ninjas, they had a Jonin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the fight started, it was hard to say who would win.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, things gradually developed in a strange direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Rain ninjas looked at each other, then glanced at the girl on the side, and finally exchanged a look, actually turning around and slowly retreating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the Leaf ninjas on the opposite side followed suit and began to withdraw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief; although she didn't understand why both sides were retreating, it was better to have less trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, she turned around and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, the girl discovered something wrong. ***\u003C\u002Fp>",1240,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.539Z","2026-06-17T05:05:38.859Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","553e8ea7ba18999960d280d447a191d4f0ed12a0b3850fcc29f4ba933941d78e","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-385","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-383",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
