once exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for fabricating a reasonable excuse, that was even more difficult than ascending to heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she was basically an \"unregistered person,\" and the things she fabricated would likely not stand up to verification at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the lies were exposed, she would be even less able to escape her doom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, last night, she was not just sitting there in a daze; after thinking all night, she had come up with a \"foolproof plan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, her top priority was to \"go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she only needed to be able to secure an opportunity to activate the technique and let her \"go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, what she needed was not to escape from the Rain ninjas' imprisonment and an explanation that would satisfy Hanzo of the Salamander, but to temporarily scare Hanzo of the Salamander and buy time to find an opportunity to \"go back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the girl was unfamiliar with the place and was an \"unregistered person\"; with her strength as a Jonin, how could she scare Hanzo of the Salamander, who was the leader of the Rain ninjas and possessed super-Kage strength?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Undoubtedly, whether in terms of strength or influence, the girl could only be crushed when facing Hanzo of the Salamander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in one aspect, the girl had an advantage that Hanzo of the Salamander could not compare to—information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like Mizunuki Ryosuke, the reason he could be far-sighted and plan the situation of the ninja world from behind the scenes was not his own strength, but information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a situation where the information held by both sides is unequal,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>many pieces of intelligence that were considered \"top secret\" back then are nothing more than after-dinner conversation topics for people years later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at this moment, in terms of strength, although the girl was at an absolute disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in terms of information and intelligence, the girl possessed an almost crushing advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Hanzo of the Salamander knew nothing about her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she knew almost everything about Hanzo of the Salamander, and she even knew many secret pieces of intelligence and the trends of the war regarding this war between the Rain ninjas and Konoha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What Hanzo of the Salamander knew, she basically knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what Hanzo of the Salamander didn't know, she also knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying on the gap in information, the girl quickly thought of a way and a rhetoric that could make Hanzo of the Salamander feel hesitant and successfully delay time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And her method was also very simple to say: \"borrowing power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, a sharp glint burst forth in the girl’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn't scare Hanzo of the Salamander, but that didn't mean others couldn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what she had to do was to \"borrow\" that person’s name to \"use.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because as far as she knew, at this point in time, Hanzo of the Salamander should have already been influenced by \"that person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, the girl forcibly calmed her heart, and then spoke unhurriedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Demigod, actually I am 'one of our own'.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl said to Hanzo of the Salamander with full sincerity, the shining Stone ninja forehead protector on her forehead seeming to insult Hanzo of the Salamander’s intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Hanzo of the Salamander was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned cold, and the look he cast at the girl on the opposite side was like looking at a dead person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One of our own\"? He never remembered having \"one of our own\" among the Stone ninjas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this woman treating him like a fool?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A trace of faint anger flashed in Hanzo of the Salamander’s heart, and a cold chill spread from his sturdy body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please don't get angry yet, listen to my explanation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl hurriedly added an explanation, fearing that if she spoke too slowly, she would be directly slashed by Hanzo of the Salamander’s Iaijutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, my name is 'Mizunuki Haruko', I am a person of 'that lord'!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So we are our own people!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl explained at a rapid speed, and her words made Hanzo of the Salamander’s expression directly freeze; the original anger in his heart also dissipated without a trace, replaced by shock and being caught off guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Mizunuki Haruko?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't about how pleasant the girl’s name was; whether she was called \"Haruko,\" \"Midoriko,\" or \"Little Kuroko\" was irrelevant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key was the three characters \"Mizunuki.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the ninja world, mentioning Mizunuki, Hanzo of the Salamander instinctively thought of that man!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And combined with the \"honorable name\" the girl reported, how could Hanzo not know who the \"that lord\" she referred to was?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this was not the most critical part; the most critical part was the terrifying information content revealed in the girl’s words!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The alliance between Mizunuki Ryosuke and Hanzo of the Salamander had been in a secret, undisclosed stage; among all the Rain ninjas, only Hanzo and a few others knew about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This piece of intelligence was top secret among the Rain ninjas!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hanzo was 100% sure that those who knew about it among the Rain ninjas could not have leaked this intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on the Mist ninja side, as long as Mizunuki Ryosuke wasn't stupid, he wouldn't let such secret news become known to everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the matter of keeping the cooperation between the two sides secret was something Mizunuki Ryosuke himself had proposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, how did this woman know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did she know that Mizunuki Ryosuke was \"one of our own\" to him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most magical thing was that this woman was actually a Stone ninja!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Stone ninja saying her surname was Mizunuki was simply the biggest joke in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When did the Mizunuki lineage of the Mist become people of the Stone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she said the name of \"that man\" and revealed intelligence that was currently \"top secret.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What on earth was going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This one sentence directly sent Hanzo into a dizzying spin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Swish!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, Hanzo of the Salamander could no longer sit still; he stood up abruptly, staring tightly at the girl’s face, thinking about where exactly things had gone wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the girl felt settled in her heart, knowing she had \"bet right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter whether Hanzo of the Salamander was wary or in awe of that man at this moment, as long as she could be linked to that man, Hanzo of the Salamander would definitely not dare to do anything to her easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the contrary, he would have to provide her with good food and drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything at this moment showed that that man indeed had a huge influence on Hanzo of the Salamander.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the name \"Mizunuki Haruko,\" it was, of course, just something she had made up on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Hanzo of the Salamander thought of a possibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It made absolutely no sense for a person of the Mizunuki clan to be a Stone ninja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it possible that something went wrong on the Mist side, leading to the intelligence being stolen by the Stone, and it just happened to be learned by this female ninja, who used it to confuse him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Hanzo of the Salamander’s eyes became even colder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the girl was not panicked in her heart; she also never thought that she could fool Hanzo of the Salamander with a lie she made up on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She still had a real \"trump card.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1324,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.539Z","2026-06-17T05:05:38.859Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","11ef5e68d58c05071df51876c4f9dae711ed869952607d963d623161e53a697b","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-395","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-393",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
