Chapter 529: The Teachings of Mizunuki Ryosuke

~7 min read 1,300 words

To Kaguya Yuta's answer, Mizunuki Ryosuke was noncommittal; he did not even turn his head, leaving only an inscrutable back to the people in the room.

"Yuta, then do you think I could be wrong?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke's calm and scholarly voice came again. As he spoke, he beckoned, and the Ice Long Wang, which had been circling at a low altitude, flapped its wings and arrived directly at the edge of the terrace.

Under Mizunuki Ryosuke's control, the Ice Long Wang seemed as if it had truly come to life.

It affectionately stretched its head toward Mizunuki Ryosuke, and Ryosuke calmly reached out a hand, stroking the ferocious head of the Ice Long Wang, which was condensed from ice.

"No!"

"You will never be wrong!"

"Whether it is me, Kisame, Momochi, or Department Head Hozuki."

"None of us will ever question you!"

Kaguya Yuta continued without hesitation. The worship and respect in his words left Bee, who was standing to the side, somewhat silent.

In a daze, he seemed to recall the time he fought Momochi Zabuza in the Ghost Mist.

During their fierce battle, the resolute look Zabuza had cast toward him.

What was reflected in that gaze was the implementation of orders and absolute loyalty to the Mizukage.

Combining that with Kaguya Yuta's resolute tone and demeanor at this moment, Bee seemed to understand something.

Bee fell silent. The fact that the Kage-level powerhouses in Kirigakure were so devoted to Mizunuki Ryosuke was enough to explain one thing.

That is, in this village called Kirigakure, the Fourth Mizukage possessed absolute authority.

He was not only the "Kage" of this village, but also the "Light" of this village.

"Now, what do you think, Bee?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke turned around and asked Bee behind him. Against the backdrop of the Ice Long Wang's massive body, Ryosuke's entire being radiated a powerful aura that made it impossible for others to look him directly in the eye.

Hearing this, Bee's eyes were hesitant. Mizunuki Ryosuke seemed to have said nothing, but his interaction with Kaguya Yuta had already demonstrated the Fourth Mizukage's terrifying control over Kirigakure, as well as the fact that Mizunuki Ryosuke was fully capable of remote-controlling the village.

But even so, Bee still felt that Mizunuki Ryosuke's actions did more harm than good, and he could not agree with them.

From Bee's hesitant expression, Mizunuki Ryosuke had already seen Bee's thoughts, so he continued.

"Bee, the reason you want to stop me..."

"Is nothing more than the fear that my actions will lead to internal problems in Kirigakure, which in turn will affect the strategy against Kumogakure."

"I can even tell you directly now."

"Two troops, led respectively by Kirigakure Anbu Department Head Hozuki Mangetsu and White Shark Unit Department Head Hoshigaki Kisame."

"Will set out from the Land of Water tomorrow, launching a pincer attack on the Iwa-nin in the Land of the Moon from two different paths."

Once these words were spoken, Bee's eyes widened directly.

"Impossible!"

Bee exclaimed subconsciously.

He could not believe that in just one day, Kirigakure could complete all strategic deployments, logistical requisitions, and war mobilization.

To this, Mizunuki Ryosuke just smiled slightly, looking noncommittal.

Looking at Mizunuki Ryosuke's calm and peaceful eyes, Bee gradually fell silent.

He knew that the Fourth Mizukage would not lie about such matters.

Although he did not know how he had managed it, Bee's reason told him that this was all true; the Fourth Mizukage would not joke with his own dignity and the reputation of Kirigakure.

"These are my teachings to you regarding command and execution."

Seeing Bee, Mizunuki Ryosuke did not reveal any more, but just showed an inscrutable smile.

It could only be said that Kirigakure's planning for war was far beyond what Bee had expected.

Under Ryosuke's arrangement, Kirigakure had long since made all preparations for war; as soon as he gave the order, a large number of Mist-nin would rush to the battlefield under the leadership of Kage-level powerhouses.

Suddenly, Bee could not help but subconsciously look into Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes. At this moment, he only felt that these eyes were deeper than a black hole, and this man's methods and wisdom were more terrifying than a demon god.

Bee began to rethink everything along the direction Ryosuke had mentioned.

If everything really would be as this man said, and Kirigakure could dispatch large numbers of troops to the battlefield at any time, then Mizunuki Ryosuke's behavior was at most just a bit "rash."

And this slight rashness was within an acceptable range for Kumogakure.

"Now, I will tell you some other things."

"Let me ask you, at this very moment, once Kirigakure declares war on Iwagakure, what is it that they most hope to see?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke asked a question that Bee had not expected.

Bee pondered for a moment, then answered slowly.

"Of course, the defeat of Iwagakure."

Bee's answer was very conventional, and this answer was also the result considered from a normal perspective of thinking.

Whether for Kumogakure or Kirigakure, the victory of the war was naturally what both sides most wanted to see.

"Your answer is not wrong."

"Since I have already agreed to provide aid to Kumogakure and participate in the war against Iwagakure."

"Then what I most want to see now is the defeat of Iwagakure, and the sooner the better!"

"Since that is the case, then all my codes of conduct must take 'defeating Iwagakure as quickly as possible' as the top priority."

"And here a problem arises, which is what kind of military strategy and tactics should be adopted to defeat Iwagakure at the fastest speed."

Mizunuki Ryosuke used his young face to speak words of immense depth.

At this moment, Bee on the side had long since put away his initial doubts, and instead was listening attentively to Mizunuki Ryosuke's "teachings."

"Then what I am going to teach you next is the so-called 'tactics'."

Mizunuki Ryosuke said with burning eyes. At this time, Bee had already revealed a look of "listening respectfully," and his eyes also carried a hint of humility.

"Let me ask you again."

"Do you know about the deaths of the Second Raikage and the Second Hokage?"

Hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's words, Bee frowned.

The death of the Second Raikage was a stain that could never be erased from the history of Kumogakure.

The mighty Raikage not only died from the backstabbing betrayal of his own village's ninja, but also caused the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, who was an ally, to be besieged to death.

This could not simply be called embarrassing; it was embarrassing to the entire Ninja World.

After this one incident, Kumogakure's reputation in this Ninja World was swept away.

Regarding the death of the Second Raikage, every Kumogakure ninja was probably unable to let it go.

"Of course."

Bee's expression sank, and he nodded in response.

He did not understand why Mizunuki Ryosuke wanted to bring this up.

"The Second Raikage and the Second Hokage both died at the hands of the brothers Kinkaku and Ginkaku; this matter is known to everyone in the Ninja World."

"Then let me ask you, in all fairness."

"Do you think that in a head-on battle, even if Kinkaku and Ginkaku had a large number of subordinates helping, the Second Hokage and the Second Raikage, joining forces, would be unable to defeat the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers?"

"Even in a head-on battle, just the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, alone, would probably have no pressure fighting the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers."

Mizunuki Ryosuke said, and suddenly a sharp light burst from his eyes.

"Then let me ask you, how did the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers succeed in killing the two Second Kage who originally could not be killed?" ===== CHAPTER 531 =====
