Chapter 523

~5 min read 839 words

Not only that, after helping Kumogakure defeat Iwagakure, Kirigakure could not only restore its prestige but also naturally obtain a portion of war reparations from Iwagakure.

At the same time, Kirigakure also consolidated its relationship with Kumogakure and gained Kumogakure's favor.

So Kumogakure's request for help was completely like delivering a pillow when sleepy for Mizunuki Ryosuke.

For Bee, who didn't know Mizunuki Ryosuke's ambition, he naturally didn't understand this point.

So he could only attribute everything to an unfounded "personal emotional inclination."

In a room, four people actually had four completely different thoughts; it had to be said that this was also an extremely rare thing.

Bee couldn't imagine at all that Mizunuki Ryosuke not only planned to actively intervene in the war from the beginning but had even calculated Kumogakure until he succeeded as the Fourth Raikage, and carried out a series of plans, deliberately arranging his fight to the death with Momochi Zabuza.

Mizunuki Ryosuke also couldn't imagine that Bee would actually think that Kirigakure agreed to this assistance because of his "personal relationship" with Samui, and concluded that he and Samui had an "illicit affair."

Samui also couldn't imagine that what was originally just an ordinary request, then being agreed to by the other party, and finally achieving the goal, would be misunderstood by her companions.

Even the fact that she met a girl by chance on the Kirigakure shopping street and went shopping together was a plot as popular as an "8 PM golden prime time" drama in the eyes of her companions.

Her companions unanimously thought that she "heroically sacrificed herself" for the great cause of Kumogakure, and was the type who "voluntarily became the mistress."

And Karui...

This ninja with a square face just smiled, revealing a ray of wisdom.

He seemed to have seen through everything, but he didn't want to say it...

Bee, a member of Kumogakure's "AB Combination," was the only son of the Third Raikage, Ai.

Bee had been gifted since childhood and was highly regarded by the Third Raikage, almost being cultivated as the next successor of Kumogakure since he could remember.

In Kumogakure, any behavior of evasion and cowardice would invite contempt; this was the education every member of Kumogakure received from childhood.

But Bee was different; as the successor of the village, he also came into contact earlier with how to become a qualified Kage.

"To be a Kage is to be the person who bears all the weight of the village."

This was Bee's understanding of a Kage and the belief he used to support himself.

Someone too rigid obviously couldn't inherit the title of "Kage."

Because of this, Bee understood very well that sometimes not everything could be solved through frontal means.

With Bee's bottom line, he couldn't accept selling out a woman to obtain benefits for the village, but if this woman was "willing," the nature of the matter naturally changed immediately, and then why wouldn't he be happy to do it?

Recalling the series of events that had "shattered his worldview," Bee could only sigh faintly in his heart.

No matter how absurd the plot of two women serving one husband was, as long as the people themselves were willing, what business was it of his?

What's more, he himself was one of the "beneficiaries" of this matter.

Therefore, Bee decided that he would simply "go all the way" and "help" Samui.

"Lord Mizukage, in order to manifest the friendship between Kirigakure and Kumogakure."

"Kumogakure has decided to set up a liaison ambassador in Kirigakure; what do you think?"

Bee said slowly, his eyes flashing with a strange luster.

"Of course, as an exchange, Kirigakure will also send a resident ambassador to Kumogakure."

Regarding Bee's proposal, Mizunuki Ryosuke naturally had no reason to refuse.

In friendly countries, setting up envoys with each other was a very normal thing.

Little did he know, everything Bee said "contained deep meaning."

The story of "suspecting the neighbor of stealing the axe" tells us that once a person's subjective impression is formed, it is destined to be very difficult to change.

When you think a person is worth suspecting, any of their actions will intensify your suspicion.

Undoubtedly, the "liaison ambassador" in Bee's mouth could only have one person—and that was Samui.

In Bee's heart, Mizunuki Ryosuke agreeing directly without thinking about his proposal was naturally because Mizunuki Ryosuke knew in his heart that in this situation, this ambassador could only, and would only, be Samui.

And this was undoubtedly another "ironclad proof" of the relationship between Mizunuki Ryosuke and Samui.

Although Bee's expression was as usual, he cast a subtle look at Mizunuki Ryosuke, his eyes containing the subtle meaning of "you understand, and I understand."

And in Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes...

"What's wrong? Did sand get in your eyes?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke looked at Bee, who was winking at him wildly, and said secretly in his heart.

In order not to be impolite, Mizunuki Ryosuke just smiled after nodding at Bee. ===== CHAPTER 525 =====
