Chapter 400

What kind of threat is the most terrifying threat?

There is a saying that goes well, the most terrifying things are often unknown.

The deterrence brought by Mizunuki Ryosuke's silence and deep eyes was far greater than a thousand words.

At this moment, the girl, feeling the threat, had her desire to survive soar, which forced her to open her throat and say that title in a voice as thin as a mosquito's hum.

"Hus, husband..."

The voice, as light as a mosquito's hum, was inaudible, but who were the other two people at the table?

Whether it was Mizunuki Ryosuke or Hanzo of the Salamander, both had already arrived at the peak of the ninja world, and their five senses were far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Even though the girl's voice was extremely weak, both of them heard it clearly.

Hanzo of the Salamander's eyes were strange, wanting to speak but stopping, wanting to say something, but not knowing how to say it.

And a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Mizunuki Ryosuke's mouth, and the expression on his face also returned to gentleness once again.

"The voice is too small; I didn't hear it clearly."

Even so, Mizunuki Ryosuke still pretended to say intentionally.

Hearing this sentence, the girl's face, which was already like a red cloud, stiffened, and a complex look appeared in her black and white eyes.

Among them, there was relief and relaxation, as well as awkwardness, shyness, confusion, and tension.

The meaning in Mizunuki Ryosuke's words undoubtedly indicated that her idea was correct; Mizunuki Ryosuke wanted this title, she answered correctly, and "escaped a disaster."

But at the same time, the girl also deeply understood the meaning contained in this title.

Her inner shyness and self-esteem made her heart constantly suffer from torture at this moment.

Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke ask her to repeat this title again, the girl struggled in her heart, but it was much better than just now.

Everything only has the difference between the "first time" and "countless times."

Since the breakthrough from zero to one had already appeared, repeating it back and forth was just a matter of course.

"Husband..."

Thus, the girl had to speak again; although her voice was trembling, this time it was much louder, reaching the bottom where normal people could hear it.

"Hmm, I heard it."

Afterward, Mizunuki Ryosuke responded as a matter of course, and at the same time, the arm hugging the girl's slender waist exerted a little more force.

Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke actually respond "shamelessly," the girl was almost about to faint from shame.

"It's over, I can't get married anymore..."

Feeling the pressure brought by this firm and powerful chest, the girl kept wailing in her heart.

But unfortunately, no matter how she wailed in her heart, it was of no avail in the end, and she could only obediently accept her fate.

Clearly, the girl, who still had a glimmer of hope for "going home" at this moment, had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

Little did she know, the poor little thing who had already fallen into the "demon's palm" could not escape from this demon's palm again, could she?

After a series of operations completely "taking her as his own," Mizunuki Ryosuke then stopped bullying the poor girl in his arms and turned his eyes to Hanzo of the Salamander on the opposite side.

Ryosuke smiled slightly and said a sentence.

"Leader Hanzo, my foolish wife has made you laugh."

With just this sentence, the bodies of Hanzo of the Salamander and the girl trembled slightly at the same time.

"I have never seen such a shameless person."

Both of them cursed in their hearts at the same time.

But one dared not speak because of "lewd power," and the other could not speak because of fear.

Hanzo of the Salamander looked at Mizunuki Ryosuke, who was smiling and silent on the opposite side; his strange expression gradually returned to calm, but his eyes inevitably still carried some strangeness.

As the leader of the Hidden Rain Village, the hero who now has the final say in the Land of Rain.

Hanzo of the Salamander would certainly not offend Mizunuki Ryosuke for a woman.

"793"

Although this woman was nominally his prisoner, a mere woman, giving her away was giving her away; Hanzo of the Salamander naturally had this much capacity.

What's more, Mizunuki Ryosuke could stand completely on the side of reason; was it Hanzo of the Salamander's turn to interfere in the affairs between "husband and wife"?

Although this scene of "husband and wife reunion" could be called "full of loopholes."

Hanzo of the Salamander was not stupid; he could naturally see that the singing and harmony between Mizunuki Ryosuke and this Rock Ninja girl in front of him was just acting.

But what did that matter? What was important was the result, not the process.

Originally, Hanzo of the Salamander might have had some doubts about Mizunuki Ryosuke's purpose in occupying this woman.

But at this moment, seeing the ambiguous posture of Mizunuki Ryosuke and the girl, especially the girl's extremely conspicuous long legs, he also immediately showed a look that "all men understand."

Sure enough...

People are not sages; even someone as deep in means and as thick and black in heart as the Fourth Mizukage Mizunuki Ryosuke had the shortcoming of being "lustful."

Thinking of this, Hanzo of the Salamander secretly sighed in his heart.

Clearly, Hanzo of the Salamander had completely attributed Mizunuki Ryosuke's motive for occupying the girl to lust.

And for Hanzo of the Salamander's such straightforward look, if Mizunuki Ryosuke couldn't taste it, he wouldn't have been Mizukage in vain.

But he didn't care about this; compared to the reputation of being "lustful," the secret behind the girl was more important.

Therefore, under Hanzo of the Salamander's gaze, he still enjoyed it, and even the scholarly expression on his face didn't change at all.

And as for the poor girl...

For the two heroes of the ninja world, they obviously wouldn't care about the inner thoughts of this "insignificant" female Rock Ninja.

Getting the girl in his arms could only be considered an unexpected joy for Mizunuki Ryosuke.

The reason why he came to meet Hanzo of the Salamander was, of course, for another purpose.

At this moment, after dealing with the previous farce, Mizunuki Ryosuke also talked about business with Hanzo of the Salamander.

The main content of the matter was naturally the cooperation between the Hidden Mist and the Hidden Rain; as the war became more intense, the trade of war materials between the two sides also needed to be further expanded.

Previously, Hanzo of the Salamander had submitted requests to the Hidden Mist several times through the Hidden Rain's news channels.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mizunuki Ryosuke started a round of negotiations with Hanzo of the Salamander.

Hanzo of the Salamander first told Mizunuki Ryosuke about the latest material needs of the Hidden Rain, and then increased the purchase price; in general, it looked full of sincerity.

Hearing this, a trace of strangeness flashed in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes.

Seeing the leopard, one can know the whole; from Hanzo's constantly expanding demand for war materials, it shows that Hanzo of the Salamander has become more and more confident in this war.

In other words, Hanzo at this time is full of confidence in defeating the Leaf.

And this is not good news for Mizunuki Ryosuke; it seems he must choke the Hidden Rain in this regard.

After all, the Hidden Mist has already made enough money now; with the huge war reparations from the Hidden Rock, it doesn't lack the little bit from the Hidden Rain.

Compared to this little bit, the overall situation of the war is obviously more important.

Immediately, a somewhat difficult expression appeared on his face, and then he turned to speak.

"Leader Hanzo, to be honest."

"Actually, the Hidden Mist also has its own difficulties; it is really difficult to expand the supply of materials to the Hidden Rain."

"And..."

"I'm afraid the subsequent material supply will have to be reduced by a part."

Mizunuki Ryosuke's face was a bit low, as if it was hard to speak.

"What?! Why?"

Hanzo of the Salamander frowned, his face ugly.

The material supply from the Hidden Mist was already the Hidden Rain's largest channel for obtaining materials.

One could guess that the Hidden Rain had even abandoned its lair, the Hidden Rain Village, and was fighting guerrilla warfare outside.

For logistics materials such as weapons, explosive tags, medical supplies, and military rations, the Hidden Rain had lost most of its ability to self-produce.

Such a situation was naturally normal; abandoning a fixed base for guerrilla tactics to expand depth would naturally bring certain disadvantages...

Originally, with the help of the Hidden Mist, Hanzo of the Salamander had nothing to fear.

But now, Mizunuki Ryosuke's move to draw the firewood from under the cauldron had completely hit Hanzo of the Salamander's pain point.

Therefore, Hanzo of the Salamander naturally changed his face immediately.

"Sigh, Leader Hanzo, you don't know..."

"To be honest, the Hidden Mist is also helpless now."
