Chapter 678: An Expert at Playing with Human Hearts

Mizunuki Ryosuke used only one sentence to successfully break through Kitsuchi's psychological defense line.

Kitsuchi subconsciously looked toward Mizunuki Ryosuke, but when he saw Mizunuki Ryosuke's eyes, his heart was shocked again.

What kind of eyes are these!!

Deep, dark, and seemingly carrying a magic power that can peer through the human heart!

In an instant, Kitsuchi only felt that all the thoughts in his heart were like big-character posters pasted outside the door, seen clearly by Mizunuki Ryosuke.

"Since it's not because of fearing the desperate counterattack of the Iwa ninja, what is his point of concern?"

Kitsuchi's heart was filled with doubts, and at the same time, he was completely flustered.

Ignoring Kitsuchi, who was a bit flustered, Mizunuki Ryosuke continued to speak.

"The reason I didn't let Kumo consume themselves with you is truly to save you."

"Your perspective is still too small; if Onoki were here, he would probably be able to understand what I mean."

As Mizunuki Ryosuke spoke, he revealed a posture of compassion, his eyes carrying a few traces of inexplicable deep meaning.

Seeing this, Kitsuchi's heart was filled with even more doubts, and deep in his heart, there was even a trace of panic.

Mizunuki Ryosuke's short sentence brought huge pressure to Kitsuchi.

Originally, before this, the most Kitsuchi had done within Iwagakure was to assist Onoki, but now that he suddenly shouldered the heavy responsibility of Iwagakure, he would naturally be anxious about gains and losses.

Added to that, being told this by Mizunuki Ryosuke, Kitsuchi was naturally a bit flustered.

"What is he thinking? What does he mean?"

"Would Father handle it better than me if he were here?"

"What if my way of handling it is problematic, wouldn't that be..."

Kitsuchi's psychological pressure became greater and greater; under this high pressure, people's subconscious would have some lazy thoughts.

Thus, in his subconscious, he had actually accepted some of Mizunuki Ryosuke's ideas.

It seemed that in the depths of his subconscious, he felt that if everything was not as Mizunuki Ryosuke said, then it couldn't be explained.

Kitsuchi gritted his teeth, knowing that he couldn't continue like this; no matter whether Mizunuki Ryosuke's words were true or false, having his thinking constantly led by the other party and being constantly influenced was not a good thing.

At this instant, Kitsuchi truly realized Mizunuki Ryosuke's terror!

Not only that combat power capable of suppressing everything, but also that keen insight and the terrifying skill of playing with human hearts.

Rather than being led by the nose by Mizunuki Ryosuke like this, Kitsuchi would rather take a step back on his own to get rid of the influence of Mizunuki Ryosuke's words.

"Iwagakure can accept failure, but cannot accept surrender."

"As long as you return the Third Tsuchikage, the Iwa ninja will accept the outcome of failure, agree to withdraw to the Land of Earth immediately, and return all the land occupied in the Land of Moon."

Kitsuchi still tried his best to keep his tone steady, not to be influenced by the hesitation in his heart.

Only this time, Kitsuchi dared not continue to look at Mizunuki Ryosuke; his gaze shifted downward unnaturally, and although his tone was still steady, it seemed a bit lacking in confidence compared to before.

Seeing this demeanor of Kitsuchi, the smile on the corner of Mizunuki Ryosuke's mouth became even more obvious.

Regarding Kitsuchi's words, Mizunuki Ryosuke said nothing at first, but soon a low laughter reached Kitsuchi's ears.

"Hehehehahaha."

Mizunuki Ryosuke first chuckled, then gradually developed into hearty laughter.

... Seeking flowers...

Kitsuchi frowned, the steadiness on his face disappeared without a trace; he looked at Mizunuki Ryosuke with a suspicious gaze.

He didn't understand why Mizunuki Ryosuke was laughing, only feeling that this laughter was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart.

"Let me guess, are you going to say next..." ===== CHAPTER 680 =====
