Chapter 522

The gazes of Mizunuki Ryosuke and Hanzo of the Salamander met in mid-air for a moment, then simultaneously averted nonchalantly.

Whether Ryosuke's "Face Fruit" could take effect would soon be revealed.

Seeing Hanzo of the Salamander remain silent for a long while, he finally spoke slowly, his voice sounding somewhat long and complex.

"The younger generation is to be feared."

Although it was only four short words, it was enough to manifest his attitude.

It was just unclear which of the two young men before him these words were directed at.

Since Hanzo of the Salamander had already spoken, the problem was solved; no matter how arrogant the Third Kazekage was, he definitely had no reason not to give Mizunuki Ryosuke face.

"Long heard of your name, Leader Hanzo."

Afterward, the Third Kazekage also responded to Hanzo of the Salamander in a lukewarm manner, and by default, directly brushed past the previous unpleasantness.

Hanzo of the Salamander only nodded upon hearing this and said no more.

After the two greeted each other and exchanged courtesies, the possibility of them tearing their faces apart was temporarily gone.

Most importantly, Mizunuki Ryosuke had dissipated a crisis into nothingness with just a few words, which also indirectly demonstrated his prestige as the organizer of the meeting.

It also invisibly elevated his status in the scene.

This also meant that as long as Mizunuki Ryosuke was present, no matter how unruly these people were, they wouldn't be able to stir up any waves.

Seeing that the undercurrent had been resolved by him, Mizunuki Ryosuke didn't say much more, but casually introduced the Waterfall leader, Shibuki, who was behind him, to everyone.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes flashed with surprise.

For no other reason than that Shibuki had been following closely behind Ryosuke since just now, and had consciously lagged half a step behind, which made everyone think Shibuki was just an attendant under Ryosuke.

And when Mizunuki Ryosuke announced Shibuki's identity, it was normal for everyone to feel surprised.

Under Mizunuki Ryosuke's face, everyone nodded to Shibuki very harmoniously.

And in such a big scene, Shibuki, as the Waterfall leader, was naturally the most inconspicuous one; in front of these ninja world powerhouses, he didn't dare to be arrogant and returned the greetings one by one very low-key.

Seeing Shibuki's demeanor, everyone also fell into thought.

But in the current situation, Shibuki's level was far from enough to make these people pay attention, so no one asked directly.

At this moment, almost everyone's attention was on Mizunuki Ryosuke, waiting for his next arrangement.

After handling the contradictions on the scene nonchalantly, Mizunuki Ryosuke turned to Mifune and said.

"Leader Mifune, I see that everyone has come in a hurry and is physically and mentally exhausted."

"Let's not talk about business today, you arrange for everyone to rest first."

Hearing this, Mifune nodded seriously.

After what had just happened, Mifune also understood in his heart that if he wanted to make this group of unruly ninja powerhouses convinced, it had to be Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Even as the host, he should hand over all the initiative to Mizunuki Ryosuke, so it was best for him to just follow orders.

"Brother Satie, the journey is tiring, you should also go ahead and rest."

"Tomorrow morning, I will summon everyone to officially start the meeting."

Mizunuki Ryosuke said to the Third Kazekage with a sincere expression, and the Third Kazekage, who was already enthusiastic enough to "call each other brothers" with Mizunuki Ryosuke, had no intention of refusing.

"I dare not disobey."

The Third Kazekage nodded quickly, but there was a hint of thoughtful depth in his eyes.

"Good."

"If you all have any needs, you can contact Leader Mifune, I think Leader Mifune will definitely do his best."

Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's words, Mifune nodded quickly, indicating that everything was on him.

After hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's arrangements, everyone did not refuse, so Mifune began to dispatch samurai to take everyone to their lodgings.

Finally, only Mifune and Mizunuki Ryosuke were left standing on the spot, and even Shibuki was arranged to his lodging separately at Mizunuki Ryosuke's signal.

"Phew."

After everyone had left, Mifune let out a sudden sigh of relief, his whole body feeling as if he had collapsed.

"Lord Mizukage, you finally came."

Afterward, Mifune said with a bitter smile, his whole body no longer having the arrogant aura of a samurai general.

Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke only said with a gentle expression: "Thank you for your hard work, General Mifune."

Hearing this, Mifune shook his head with a bitter smile; since the matter had passed, there was no point in mentioning it more.

Soon, a hint of seriousness returned to Mifune's face, and he asked Mizunuki Ryosuke with a serious expression.

"Lord Mizukage, things have come to this, please don't hide it from me anymore."

"What exactly do you intend to do? Please give me a heads-up in advance so I can be prepared."

Mizunuki Ryosuke nodded; there was indeed no need to hide it from Mifune anymore, as after Mifune agreed to his request, he was basically standing in the same trench as him.

"Please rest assured, Leader Mifune, I deliberately stayed here because I also want to talk to you here."

Seeing Mizunuki Ryosuke's peaceful attitude, without any intention of hiding, Mifune completely set his heart at ease.

"Lord Mizukage, please move with me."

Mifune looked around, knowing this was not a place to talk, so he led Ryosuke toward a secret place.

Ryosuke just nodded and then left with Mifune.

After a while, Mifune brought Mizunuki Ryosuke to a somewhat familiar room.

Previously, it was right here that Mizunuki Ryosuke, Tsunade, and Mifune had negotiated on weapon procurement.

Although the room was still the same room, the people were already different.

"I wonder how little Tsunade is doing now."

Thinking of the past, even Mizunuki Ryosuke couldn't help but feel some emotion, missing his own golden princess.

"Lord Mizukage, please!"

Mifune's voice interrupted Mizunuki Ryosuke's distraction, and he saw him pointing to the seat of honor, saying respectfully to Ryosuke.

Seeing this, Ryosuke didn't stand on ceremony and sat directly in the main seat that once belonged to Mifune.

And Mifune was willing to take the secondary seat, seriously adding tea and water for Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Mizunuki Ryosuke knew Mifune's thoughts, so he didn't beat around the bush, but roughly recounted his next plan.

"Clatter."

As Ryosuke recounted, the teapot in Mifune's hand fell directly to the ground.

At this moment, the samurai general's face was full of shock, and he couldn't even hold the teapot in his hand steadily.

Although he had guessed Ryosuke's purpose, he never expected the other party to be so bold! The things he was going to do were so shocking!
