Chapter 490

~5 min read 855 words

After Hoshigaki Kisame and Kaguya Yuta finished greeting the people present, they didn't say much more, just looking at Bee in the field with interest.

This kind of look is not a "friendly" expression, and it can even be called "sinister."

The look both of them cast toward Bee was like looking at a prey waiting to be caught.

If you observe carefully, you can also faintly find a hint of regret hidden in the bottom of their eyes.

Because the two are currently lamenting that such a good "prey" is not their turn to "take a bite."

And in the eyes of Bee, who is "heavily surrounded" at this moment, everything seems not so beautiful.

Bee, the person involved in the field, seems to be better; the expressions on the faces of Samui and Troy watching from the sidelines are already like prisoners waiting to be executed, with a hint of shrinking in fear.

"Bee..."

Samui looked at Bee's back with worry, her delicate body trembling slightly.

With Samui's intelligence, she naturally saw that Bee had already caused big trouble.

Bee scanned the three Mist ninjas who brought him strong pressure, his expression very ugly.

The appearance of these three undoubtedly caused Bee's mood to hit rock bottom.

Challenging Kirigakure with his own strength—this plan was planned and executed by Bee himself.

This looks like a reckless choice made by Bee under unbearable conditions, but in fact, it is the result of Bee's careful consideration in his heart, and it can be considered an unavoidable conspiracy by Bee!

Even in a sense, this is a "challenge" initiated by Bee on behalf of Cloud to the high-level officials of Kirigakure! And the rulers of Kirigakure can only accept this challenge and cannot choose to avoid it.

Currently, Kirigakure and Cloud have an alliance relationship, and Bee's behavior, although it looks like a "malicious provocation," if you look into it carefully, it is just a "friendly interaction" between allies.

After all, a ninja is a profession representing violence, and the principle believed in the ninja world is the law of the jungle; as ninjas, sparring with each other is nothing even if you talk about it to the sky.

After all, Bee of Cloud is only seeking a "competition."

As long as Bee insists on the principle of one-on-one and does not take lives, Kirigakure Village can't find any faults.

As for refusing to fight? This is naturally even more impossible; the mighty Kirigakure, how could it tolerate someone provoking in public at the main base of Kirigakure Village? Where does this put Kirigakure's face?

Not only that, Kirigakure will never adopt a "wheel war" to exhaust Bee.

Firstly, there is a suspicion of winning unfairly; secondly, if Bee wins too much, it won't sound good even if it spreads to the ninja world, and instead, it will become a stepping stone for Bee to make a name for himself in the ninja world.

Imagine: "Ninja 'Bee' of Cloud Village actually overwhelmed many Mist ninjas in Kirigakure Village and achieved XX consecutive victories!"

Such a result is absolutely unacceptable to any ninja village that wants face.

So this is an unmasked "straight punch" from Bee to the high-level officials of Kirigakure; the target he chose to attack is the current ruler of the high-level officials of Kirigakure—the Fourth Mizukage!

The reason for saying this is because it involves other problems.

Undoubtedly, Bee is extremely confident in his own strength, otherwise, he wouldn't have proposed such a challenge method.

Bee is confident not only in his own strength, but the most important thing is another problem—age!

In the ninja world, there is an unwritten rule.

Ninjas in the ninja world will be divided into three generations: old, middle, and young.

That is, young ninjas who are just starting out, middle-aged ninjas who are already capable of great things, and old ninjas who have experienced storms.

Examples are as follows:

In the current ninja world, ninjas who were once active in the First Ninja World War are undoubtedly old-generation ninjas, such as the current Third Hokage of Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen, and the Third Raikage A, etc., are all representatives.

Most of these ninjas have entered middle age, and their strength has begun to gradually decline, but most of them hold the power of various villages and are active in the ninja world as "rulers"; until the necessary moment, old-generation ninjas rarely make a move.

And those ninjas who rose in the peaceful years after the First Ninja World War are the "middle-aged ninjas" of the ninja world today.

For example, Hanzo of the Salamander, as well as Hatake Sakumo and other ninjas; these ninjas are at the peak of their strength and are in their prime, which can be considered the "middle-aged generation" of the ninja world today.

After that, there are the young ninjas who have not yet made a name for themselves and are just starting out.

The best among them are mostly just having the title of "genius" within their own village and have not yet made a name for themselves in the ninja world.
