Chapter 64

At this very moment, for the Third Mizukage and the Mizunuki clan, it is no exaggeration to say that they have reached the moment of life and death.

Mizunuki Ryosuke even once suspected that in the long river of history of the original world, perhaps it was this crisis that led to the destruction of the Mizunuki clan and the death of the Third Mizukage.

The matter is of great importance, and time is pressing; only the Third Mizukage himself can have the greatest certainty in negotiating with the Hozuki family.

At such a moment, ordinary pawns going up will not be able to win the trust of the other party.

At present, the two protagonists wrestling on the chessboard are the Third Mizukage and Hozuki Mangetsu.

In a situation where he has already fallen into a disadvantage, the Third Mizukage must seize the time to turn everything around.

Tomorrow will be the moment for the Three-Tails Jinchuriki replacement; now we cannot continue to waste time.

Thinking of this, the Third Mizukage also intends to start acting.

"Ryosuke, you did very well this time."

"The situation is critical, so I won't say much more."

"I must do the matter of going to the Hozuki family myself."

"But to prevent any leaks, someone must sit in the Mizukage's office in my identity to confuse Hozuki Mangetsu."

"I will entrust this heavy responsibility to you."

Mizunuki Taki said to Mizunuki Ryosuke with burning eyes.

Obviously, the matter is of great importance, so naturally, the fewer people who know, the more stable it is; the Third Mizukage's arrangement is also extremely reasonable.

And for Mizunuki Taki's entrustment, Ryosuke is naturally happy to do so.

The reason why he worked so hard to plan for Mizunuki Taki is naturally to be able to retreat behind the scenes and protect himself.

"Mizukage-sama, you can rest assured and leave it to me."

"I will definitely not let the other party see any flaws."

Mizunuki Ryosuke immediately nodded at the Third Mizukage, signaling that he could handle everything well.

Seeing this, the Third Mizukage nodded; he still trusted Mizunuki Ryosuke's ability extremely.

He saw him join his hands together again and form a seal for the Transformation Technique.

And then a puff of smoke flashed, and the Third Mizukage transformed directly into an extremely unfamiliar ordinary Chunin, completely completing the disguise.

"Keitaro, you come with me."

Mizunuki Taki, who had finished transforming, said to the secret technique ninja named Keitaro on the side.

Being able to be entrusted by the Third Mizukage to perform such important decryption work, Keitaro is naturally the Third Mizukage's trusted aide, so he naturally has no objection to this.

In the subsequent negotiation with the Hozuki, Keitaro's secret technique also plays an important role.

"Please!"

After arranging everything, the Third Mizukage took Keitaro and pushed the door out.

And Mizunuki Ryosuke in the office also transformed into the Third Mizukage, sat behind the desk learning the Third Mizukage's appearance, and pretended to work.

Just like this, Mizunuki Ryosuke kept disguising as the Third Mizukage until it was time to get off work.

During this time, people came to report work and ask for instructions from time to time, all of which were brushed off by Mizunuki Ryosuke.

When it was time to get off work, Mizunuki Ryosuke did not stay for a moment longer, learned the Third Mizukage's appearance, and walked slowly toward the Mizunuki clan grounds.

He must rush home as soon as possible, because for Ryosuke, there is still one important matter that has not been dealt with in time.

Flowers bloom on two branches, each describing one.

While the Third Mizukage's camp is busy without stopping, Hozuki Mangetsu on the other side is not idle either.

Mist Anbu Building, Hozuki Mangetsu ordered the Mist Anbu ninja who was his trusted aide in front of him.

"You go to the Kaguya clan grounds and tell Kaguya Ichiro."

"Tell him to be ready; tomorrow is the time to act."

"And you tell him that after the matter is done, I will assist him in sitting in the Mizukage's position."

Hozuki Mangetsu said to the trusted aide who went to pass the order with a cold face.

"Yes!"

After the Mist Anbu ninja received the order, he flashed to execute the order.

After the ninja left, a sharp glint flashed in Hozuki Mangetsu's eyes.

Kaguya?

A bunch of idiots.

Do they really think that after the matter is done, he will give up the Mizukage position that is within reach and give the opportunity to them instead?

How could a mighty Mizukage be easily assassinated by a group of Rock Ninjas?

How could a mere group of Rock Ninjas take the blame for such a big pot? Even a fool knows there is a problem.

So in order to increase persuasiveness, this group of Kaguya hotheads will become the best "scapegoats."

Kaguya colludes with Rock Ninjas to assassinate the Third Mizukage, Mizunuki Taki.

In this way, Hozuki Mangetsu kills two birds with one stone, borrowing the Kaguya's hand to deal with Mizunuki, and also taking the opportunity to eliminate Kaguya with a scheme.

Paving the way for his subsequent ascension.

Just then, another Mist Anbu beside Hozuki Mangetsu reported.

"My lord, I have followed your order and sent all the Mizukage's people in the Mist Anbu out to execute missions."

"Now all that is left in the entire Mist Anbu are our people."

"And the Seven Swordsmen side, Biwa Juzo and Kushimaru Kuri also agreed to our conditions and will participate in the action tomorrow."

Hearing this, Hozuki Mangetsu nodded with satisfaction.

Everything is ready; tomorrow is the time to see the results.

"Very good!"

For today, Hozuki Mangetsu has been planning for I don't know how long; it won't be long before the Mizukage position will change hands.

Fourth Mizukage!

Thinking of this title, Hozuki Mangetsu could not help but reveal a hideous smile on his face.

"What about the Rock Ninjas?"

"Why has there been no movement for so long?"

Seemingly suddenly thinking of something, Hozuki Mangetsu frowned and asked.

Hearing this, the Mist Anbu ninja answered.

"We are already contacting them, but we haven't been able to contact them yet."

"They should be on their way here."

The Mist Anbu ninja's answer made Hozuki Mangetsu extremely dissatisfied.

"Urge them faster; this group of Rock Ninjas is really unreliable."

Although he said so on his lips, Hozuki Mangetsu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

But at this moment, he could only forcibly suppress it first, just assuming that he was a bit nervous because of the major event tomorrow.

In the current Kirigakure Ninja Village, almost most of the ninjas have begun to operate under the control of two invisible big hands.
