This girl was the one who would later inherit the title of Fourth Tsuchikage (Leg Kage), the granddaughter of the Third Tsuchikage Onoki, and the daughter of the Rock ninja Kitsuchi—Kurotsuchi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he saw Kurotsuchi, through her highly recognizable, heaven-defying long legs, Mizunuki Ryosuke had identified her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this was also the most unreasonable part!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original work, it wasn't until the Fourth Great Ninja War, when Naruto was nearing its end, that Kurotsuchi began to be active in the ninja world as part of the younger generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And right now, the ninja world had not even been in the Second Great Ninja War for a year, and it was at least forty years away from the Fourth Great Ninja War!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurotsuchi’s father, Kitsuchi, was only just twenty years old; how could he have an eighteen-year-old daughter?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when Mizunuki Ryosuke launched the war against the Rock, he had specifically ordered the White Shark unit to investigate the core members of the Rock ninja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, the Third Tsuchikage’s son, Kitsuchi, had no offspring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And calculating the time, Kurotsuchi would only be born around this time next year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, in terms of time, Kurotsuchi could not possibly appear before Mizunuki Ryosuke at this point in time!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, Mizunuki Ryosuke had also thought it might just be a resemblance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with Kurotsuchi revealing the top-secret intelligence about the Mist and Rain ninja alliance, Mizunuki Ryosuke couldn't help but be suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he could only lock his guess onto one possibility!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was, this girl came from the future!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only this explanation could make everything make sense!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by coming from the future could one explain why Kurotsuchi, who should only be born next year, was already eighteen years old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And only by coming from the future could Kurotsuchi reveal intelligence that was top secret at the present time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, many things that were considered top secret now would only be casual conversation topics in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with Kurotsuchi admitting her name, everything was now set in stone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the Kurotsuchi he knew, and she had indeed come from the future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guess seemed \"absurd,\" but in the ninja world, it was not impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke clearly remembered that in the Naruto movie \"The Lost Tower,\" Naruto and Kakashi had also managed to travel through time using the \"Dragon Vein\" of the ancient Loulan Kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did they return to the past, but they also met Naruto’s deceased father, Minato Namikaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to say, to some extent, the possibility of \"traveling through time and space\" existed in the ninja world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Kurotsuchi being able to \"return to the present\" seemed like a simple event, but the amount of information behind it was explosive!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would Kurotsuchi, a \"person from the future,\" appear decades ago? How did she come back? And what was her purpose in returning to the past?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Combining this with her fear of him, Mizunuki Ryosuke had a vague, unpleasant speculation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was Kurotsuchi’s \"return to the present\" specifically to deal with him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Mizunuki Ryosuke’s plans, he would definitely suppress the Rock Village further in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this why Kurotsuchi, who came from the Rock, felt such extreme fear toward him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were the case, Mizunuki Ryosuke was not in a hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this precisely showed that his plans had all succeeded; his enemies in the future could no longer defeat him and could only choose to \"return to the past\" to deal with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Undoubtedly, Kurotsuchi, as a \"future person,\" posed a huge threat!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying on her foresight, which was comparable to Mizunuki Ryosuke’s, Kurotsuchi could change many things with knowledge that surpassed this time point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, if Kurotsuchi went back a year and passed the information that the Rock would be defeated and Mizunuki Ryosuke would intervene to Onoki,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>perhaps the Rock would not choose to launch a war against the Cloud, and Mizunuki Ryosuke’s plan would be nipped in the bud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the greater the risk, the greater the profit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since his rebirth, through Mizunuki Ryosuke’s constant influence, the direction of the entire ninja world had completely changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had killed Uchiha Madara, stolen one of Nagato’s Rinnegan, and changed the situation of the Mist Village on a massive scale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These influences were destined to ensure the ninja world would not follow the trajectory Mizunuki Ryosuke previously knew; the wings of this \"butterfly,\" Mizunuki Ryosuke, had already made the future unrecognizable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Mizunuki Ryosuke’s advantage as a transmigrator who knew the plot had vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore, the original plot was now of no reference value to Mizunuki Ryosuke, other than providing some intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, with his interference, the future of the ninja world had completely changed into something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, if Mizunuki Ryosuke could firmly hold the girl in his hands, it would be equivalent to successfully extending his \"foresight\" cheat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could completely learn what the future of the ninja world was like through Kurotsuchi, thereby knowing the future trends in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most importantly, Mizunuki Ryosuke needed to figure out the secret of how Kurotsuchi could travel through time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke would temporarily call \"transmigrators\" like Kurotsuchi \"Time Assassins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were the case,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>how exactly did she manage to travel through time? What was her purpose in coming to this time point, and how many such \"Time Assassins\" were there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was she the only one, or were there multiple \"Time Assassins\" who had traveled to different times besides her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Mizunuki Ryosuke was more inclined to believe that Kurotsuchi was the only \"Time Assassin\" in the ninja world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the purpose of Kurotsuchi and the Rock ninja behind her was truly to deal with him, even though Mizunuki Ryosuke had the power to resist these \"Time Assassins\" most of the time,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>there would always be times when he couldn't resist. If their goal was truly him and they could travel through time at will, wouldn't it be easier to just go back to when he had just been reborn into this world and assassinate him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the plot of \"The Lost Tower,\" it could be known that once history was changed in the \"past,\" the \"future\" would also be affected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Mizunuki Ryosuke was still alive and well, which meant they hadn't sent anyone back to his childhood to deal with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If their goal was truly him, there was no reason they wouldn't have thought of that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This indicated that this time-travel ability was either a \"coincidence\" or had huge limitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And most importantly, Mizunuki Ryosuke was not worried that so-called \"time travel\" could threaten him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sought the answer behind it just to be prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was simple—he had absolute confidence in \"himself\"!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, he had absolute confidence in his \"future self.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn't know what level of strength he would reach in a few decades, Mizunuki Ryosuke felt that, having already controlled the ninja world, there was no reason he wouldn't be able to handle such time-traveling means used to deal with his past self.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he didn't need to overthink these problems; for now, the most important thing for Mizunuki Ryosuke was to do what he should do step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking too much about other things was useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So now, what should he do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Kurotsuchi’s pretty face, a strange look appeared in Mizunuki Ryosuke’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a woman, especially one with excellent physical conditions, how could one completely control her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Physical confinement was only temporary; there would always be moments when she would break through the shackles on her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And to completely control her, the best way was naturally to build an eternal cage over her soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To achieve such control, the first thing was to leave a sufficiently deep impression in Kurotsuchi’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simple fear was far from enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke naturally raised a hand and stroked the girl’s fair chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with lightning speed, he lifted her face and kissed her without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wu...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kurotsuchi was about to cry out in surprise, but her small mouth was directly blocked; her clear eyes widened, filled with shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Kurotsuchi was frozen in place, too surprised to even resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time she reacted, Mizunuki Ryosuke had already lifted his head, leaving the corner of her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprise, shyness, hatred, sorrow...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless emotions began to brew in Kurotsuchi’s bright eyes; because of her extreme shame and anger, a misty water vapor even appeared at the corners of her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glared at Mizunuki Ryosuke, as if wanting to tear this man to pieces with her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>",1655,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.922Z","2026-06-17T05:05:39.462Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","bbd5eb2f29f3c85455065c623af6a13073b280c6f2cb06fa7a1dfbcc91517b0c","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-406","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-404",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
