Chapter 492

Even if we take a step back, even if there are one or two excellent young ninjas in Kirigakure Village.

Bee also believes that he will never lose; this is Bee's confidence in himself as a "martial artist."

But who would have thought that he had underestimated Kirigakure too much.

Kirigakure is full of monsters!

Whether a ninja village is strong or not, the first and most important thing is whether the leader's strength is strong enough, followed by whether other high-end combat power is sufficient, and finally whether the number of Jonin as the backbone has reached a scale?

If all three conditions are at the peak of the ninja world, it is enough to be called the hegemon of the ninja world.

Especially in terms of leaders and high-end combat power, one can glimpse the foundation and even combat power of a ninja village.

What's more, an important point for a ninja village is that any powerhouse has "timeliness."

No matter how strong a ninja is (except for those with cheats), once they approach middle age, their physical fitness will decline rapidly, thereby causing the ninja's combat power to drop in a straight line.

So the earlier a ninja shows their strength in their youth, the more they will be valued.

Because the earlier the talent is realized, the longer the "peak period" of this ninja will be, and the greater the value to the village will be.

The ninja world is vast; being able to become a Jonin is already walking ahead of ninety percent of ninjas.

And ninjas who can reach the "Kage" level are all existences that can be called heroes of the world in the ninja world.

Even if it is only the lowest level of "Kage"—"quasi-Kage." Ninjas of this level are also rare existences in the five great ninja villages.

Even sometimes in the five great ninja villages that are falling into decline, quasi-Kage level powerhouses are enough to inherit the title of "Kage" (such as Gaara).

If Bee only felt that Kirigakure had a good foundation when he saw Mizunuki Mitsuhiko and the other three whose age had not yet broken through eighteen.

Then now that he saw Hozuki Mangetsu and the other three blocking his way, Bee's heart was trembling.

Three young ninjas with "Kage" level, what is wrong with this world?

Bee kept asking himself in his heart, but in the end, he couldn't get an answer no matter what.

For some reason, a sentence suddenly appeared in Bee's heart: With just these three, Kirigakure can be guaranteed to be safe for thirty years!

Looking at the appearance of the three, they are still young to an outrageous degree; these three are still in their youth at this time, and it can be expected that the strength of the three will get further growth in the future.

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

"These three are already so strong, so how terrifying would the Fourth Mizukage be, who can rule Kirigakure and surpass the three to inherit the title of 'Mizukage'?"

Bee didn't dare to continue thinking in this direction because he was afraid it would completely destroy his confidence.

And this is just the young generation of ninjas; how many powerhouses are there among the middle-aged and old-generation ninjas of Kirigakure?

"Kirigakure is strong! Do not easily become an enemy!"

I don't know when, such a thought was planted in Bee's heart.

In fact, this is also because Bee was a bit scared by the current battle formation.

What Bee doesn't know is that the leaders of the old generation and the middle-aged generation of Kirigakure have long since fallen.

The leaders of the old generation of Kirigakure—the Third Mizukage and Kaguya Ichiro and other powerhouses have died in the rebellion.

The leader of the middle-aged generation—Hozuki Mangetsu also died in the rebellion together, while others such as Kurosuki Raiga and other old-generation Seven Ninja Swordsmen still have deficiencies in strength, and facing Kage-level powerhouses alone is probably somewhat inadequate.

So currently, Kirigakure's combat power is mainly the young generation of ninjas cultivated after Ryosuke took office.

The appearance of Hozuki Mangetsu and the other three represents the failure of Bee's plan.

Looking at these "monsters" of Kirigakure in front of him, Bee is now in an awkward situation.

This is like him originally aiming at the Fourth Mizukage, preparing to smash a heavy punch on the other party's face.

As a result, after making a move, he found that the Fourth Mizukage was followed by three bodyguards.

Now it can only be said that Bee chose to act cool, and he has to finish it even if he cries.

Mizukage's office, through the Mirror of Clarity, Mizunuki Ryosuke clearly saw the cold sweat on Bee's forehead, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Up to this point, his goal has been achieved.

As long as he leaves the impression that Kirigakure is strong enough in the heart of this future Fourth Raikage, then he will naturally not dare to easily tear up the alliance and change the relationship with Kirigakure in the future.

However, this is not enough; next, he needs to severely dampen his spirit.

"Don't let me down, Zabuza."

Mizunuki Ryosuke looked at the thin mist gradually rising in the Mirror of Clarity, and a hint of expectation appeared in his eyes.

Kirigakure training ground.

Bee looked at the three people in front of him in strict preparation; the two sides confronted each other for a long time, and neither spoke first.

As time passed, the pressure in Bee's heart became greater and greater; he knew that if it continued like this, it would affect his mentality and fighting spirit, so Bee simply took the initiative to speak.

"Three, who will fight me?"

As he spoke, blue-purple electric currents bloomed on Bee's body again, and the terrifying electric currents made a "crackle" sound in the air.

These characteristics all indicate that Bee has turned on full mode.

Looking at Bee, whose whole body was flashing with electric light, Hoshigaki Kisame and Kaguya Yuta shrugged their shoulders together; if it weren't for Mizunuki Ryosuke's order, they would also like to go up and play with this Cloud ninja.

Unfortunately...

Mizunuki Ryosuke's order was very clear; they were all just here to "support the scene."

The protagonist of today is someone else.

Seeing this, Bee's expression became more solemn.

It's not these two, could it be the white-haired man on the other side?

Bee shifted his gaze to Hozuki Mangetsu, who was handsome to the point of being somewhat feminine, his eyes full of vigilance.

Regarding this, Hozuki Mangetsu remained unmoved and had no intention of making a move at all.

While speaking, a wisp of thin mist suddenly covered the entire training ground.

"Oh? That kid is here."

Kisame turned his face and glanced at his side, saying lightly.

Regarding this, Kaguya Yuta just noncommittally, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

The thin mist that appears from time to time is the norm in the Land of Water, and Kirigakure Village is named after it, so everyone was not surprised by this.

However, experts whose strength reached a certain level all perceived a hint of abnormality (Zhao Wang's) from this layer of thin mist.

Bee looked at the thin mist that suddenly appeared in the air, and the electric light constantly emanating from his body became more and more intense; he smelled an extremely cold chakra in this thin mist.
