Chapter 395: , that's right, I am his lover!

The alliance between the Mist and the Rain ninjas was of great importance.

It could be said that the reason Hanzo of the Salamander had the confidence to keep dragging things out with Konoha in the Land of Rain was because he had the Mist providing supplies behind his back.

And once this layer of cooperative relationship was exposed, it might very well lead to deviations and changes within it.

This was exactly what Hanzo of the Salamander could not accept, so in handling this matter, he had to be cautious.

Better to kill the wrong person than to let one go!

Immediately, he made up his mind that he would rather use some coercive means to figure out the trickery in this.

And these so-called "coercive means" would inevitably lead to the result of destroying the flower.

Just as she was about to fall into a crisis, the girl finally unleashed her "trump card"!

"Lord Demigod, please help me contact 'that lord'."

"Please ask him to take me 'home'."

The girl looked at Hanzo of the Salamander before her and said, her tone carrying a request, and at the same time, a trace of just-right shyness appeared on her delicate face.

When she said the words "take me home," Hanzo of the Salamander’s...

0*48

Being wise for a lifetime but confused for a moment—that was exactly Hanzo of the Salamander at this time.

How could he have forgotten that it wasn't necessarily someone with the Mizunuki bloodline who could have the surname Mizunuki? In "certain" specific circumstances, even without the Mizunuki bloodline, one could justifiably bear the name Mizunuki.

But this explanation pushed the development of the matter in a strange direction.

"You mean..."

Hanzo of the Salamander’s face was uncertain; he sized up the girl before him.

Long, slender eyebrows and almond eyes filled with affection, a delicate face without any flaws looked full of pure charm.

Most eye-catching of all was the girl’s figure; a pair of long legs that could be called heaven-defying were enough to attract countless eyes in any situation.

This girl, both in appearance and figure, was a top-tier existence.

At the same time, Hanzo of the Salamander seemed to recall that day in the Rain Village, when that man "risked everything for a beauty" for Tsunade.

And what such an action was for, Hanzo of the Salamander had also slandered later.

After all, with Tsunade’s appearance, it was very likely that Mizunuki Ryosuke simply wanted to win the beauty.

At that time, Hanzo of the Salamander had muttered in his heart that perhaps for this unfathomable man, "lust" was his only flaw.

Of course, at the time, it was just a few slanders that no one knew about.

Now, when seeing the girl’s stunning beauty, Hanzo of the Salamander finally reacted.

If one looked at it from this angle, this girl might really have some connection with that man!

Following this angle of thought.

The name "Mizunuki Haruko" she reported also received a reasonable explanation.

In Japanese culture, after a woman marries, she takes her husband’s surname.

And looking at the shy expression on the girl’s face, Hanzo of the Salamander’s expression became increasingly complicated.

Could it really be as this female Stone ninja said, that she maintained such a relationship with that man, and thus learned about the cooperation with the Rain ninjas from his mouth?

It stands to reason; with that man’s meticulousness, he wouldn't easily expose this matter.

A gentle village is a hero’s grave!

Perhaps it really was that man, on some occasion, who didn't hold back and leaked the wind?

And if this woman really had such a relationship with that man, then he indeed couldn't do anything to her.

No!

It could even be said that as long as there was suspicion in this regard, before it was ruled out, Hanzo of the Salamander could not act rashly!

For a time, under the girl’s two or three sentences, Hanzo fell into a battle between heaven and man.

Hanzo of the Salamander sat down slowly, his face uncertain, standing frozen on the spot, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing the expression on Hanzo of the Salamander’s face, the girl thought to herself that her plan had achieved "great success."

She had successfully used that man’s name to scare Hanzo of the Salamander.

And all of this could not be separated from the mastery of "intelligence."

The girl first used the "top-secret intelligence" in her hands and Hanzo of the Salamander’s fear and awe of that man to disrupt Hanzo’s formation.

Afterward, through hints, she made Hanzo connect her with that man in his heart, mistakenly believing that there was some kind of ambiguous relationship between them.

And this could also be considered a way to explain the source of the intelligence on the girl.

At first glance, how could a female Stone ninja be related to that man? This was full of unreasonableness.

But it just so happened that the two things the girl said before and after formed a mutually verifying causal relationship.

Even if the answer obtained was a bit absurd, it could still be explained.

As long as it could be explained, she could use Hanzo of the Salamander’s fear of the man to temporarily remove herself from danger.

The reason the girl used this method was also the best method she thought of after considering it all night.

And the reason she pretended to be a "lover" was also a last resort.

After all, wanting to be related to that man seemed easy, but in reality, it was extremely difficult.

Identities like a seemingly reasonable "Mist undercover" or "subordinate executing a special mission" were, on one hand, not heavy enough and prone to loopholes.

On the other hand, although the girl knew many secrets that others didn't, she knew nothing about many basic situations and was very likely to be questioned and have loopholes found in two or three sentences.

Although that man was not yet famous, in the future, his philandering could be said to be known throughout the ninja world, and the lover identity was a fit for his personality.

Secondly, as far as the girl knew, that man himself was an orphan and had no brothers or sisters at all.

So using identities like "sister" wouldn't work at all.

If she didn't find a suitable excuse, then it would truly be impossible for even the gods to save her!

Finally, there was one most important reason.

Years later, who didn't know?

For that man, his partners were his greatest reverse scale.

"Offend anyone, but don't offend that guy’s women"—this was the public opinion of the future ninja world.

So after thinking about it, only the identity of "lover" was most suitable for intimidating Hanzo of the Salamander and making him hesitate.
