no matter how arrogant the Third Kazekage was, he definitely had no reason not to give Mizunuki Ryosuke face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Long heard of your name, Leader Hanzo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, the Third Kazekage also responded to Hanzo of the Salamander in a lukewarm manner, and by default, directly brushed past the previous unpleasantness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hanzo of the Salamander only nodded upon hearing this and said no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the two greeted each other and exchanged courtesies, the possibility of them tearing their faces apart was temporarily gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It also invisibly elevated his status in the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, everyone's eyes flashed with surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when Mizunuki Ryosuke announced Shibuki's identity, it was normal for everyone to feel surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Mizunuki Ryosuke's face, everyone nodded to Shibuki very harmoniously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Shibuki's demeanor, everyone also fell into thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the current situation, Shibuki's level was far from enough to make these people pay attention, so no one asked directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, almost everyone's attention was on Mizunuki Ryosuke, waiting for his next arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After handling the contradictions on the scene nonchalantly, Mizunuki Ryosuke turned to Mifune and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Leader Mifune, I see that everyone has come in a hurry and is physically and mentally exhausted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's not talk about business today, you arrange for everyone to rest first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Mifune nodded seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even as the host, he should hand over all the initiative to Mizunuki Ryosuke, so it was best for him to just follow orders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Satie, the journey is tiring, you should also go ahead and rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tomorrow morning, I will summon everyone to officially start the meeting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I dare not disobey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Third Kazekage nodded quickly, but there was a hint of thoughtful depth in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you all have any needs, you can contact Leader Mifune, I think Leader Mifune will definitely do his best.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's words, Mifune nodded quickly, indicating that everything was on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's arrangements, everyone did not refuse, so Mifune began to dispatch samurai to take everyone to their lodgings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Phew.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After everyone had left, Mifune let out a sudden sigh of relief, his whole body feeling as if he had collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Mizukage, you finally came.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Mifune said with a bitter smile, his whole body no longer having the arrogant aura of a samurai general.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke only said with a gentle expression: \"Thank you for your hard work, General Mifune.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Mifune shook his head with a bitter smile; since the matter had passed, there was no point in mentioning it more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a hint of seriousness returned to Mifune's face, and he asked Mizunuki Ryosuke with a serious expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Mizukage, things have come to this, please don't hide it from me anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What exactly do you intend to do? Please give me a heads-up in advance so I can be prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please rest assured, Leader Mifune, I deliberately stayed here because I also want to talk to you here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Mizunuki Ryosuke's peaceful attitude, without any intention of hiding, Mifune completely set his heart at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Mizukage, please move with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mifune looked around, knowing this was not a place to talk, so he led Ryosuke toward a secret place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryosuke just nodded and then left with Mifune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, Mifune brought Mizunuki Ryosuke to a somewhat familiar room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, it was right here that Mizunuki Ryosuke, Tsunade, and Mifune had negotiated on weapon procurement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the room was still the same room, the people were already different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder how little Tsunade is doing now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of the past, even Mizunuki Ryosuke couldn't help but feel some emotion, missing his own golden princess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Mizukage, please!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mifune's voice interrupted Mizunuki Ryosuke's distraction, and he saw him pointing to the seat of honor, saying respectfully to Ryosuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Ryosuke didn't stand on ceremony and sat directly in the main seat that once belonged to Mifune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Mifune was willing to take the secondary seat, seriously adding tea and water for Mizunuki Ryosuke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke knew Mifune's thoughts, so he didn't beat around the bush, but roughly recounted his next plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Clatter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Ryosuke recounted, the teapot in Mifune's hand fell directly to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the samurai general's face was full of shock, and he couldn't even hold the teapot in his hand steadily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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!\u003C\u002Fp>",1133,"2026-06-17T05:01:42.922Z","2026-06-17T05:05:39.462Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","c5097e7674c11dcd5efd611a1cf99cb567dcf84f3627dba0fed4a391489dd8a6","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-523","this-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-chapter-521",533,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-mizukage-is-strong-but-excessively-cautious-cover.jpg"]
