Chapter 682

"Fine, since you are so persistent, then it doesn't matter if I tell you."

"Do you really think that I am letting Iwagakure live because of Iwagakure itself?"

"The matter of the Land of Frost, have you forgotten?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke looked directly at Kitsuchi with a penetrating gaze; every word was like a heavy hammer hitting Kitsuchi's heart.

For a moment, Kitsuchi's face suddenly turned pale.

The biggest turning point for why Iwagakure reached this step in this war occurred on the land of the Land of Frost.

It can even be said that if it weren't for what happened in the Land of Frost, the Iwa ninja would still be sitting firmly on the fishing platform at this moment.

The root of Iwagakure's defeat stemmed from the 2,000 logistics troops that evaporated into thin air under that snowy night!

All the intelligence regarding the Land of Frost incident was basically handled by Kitsuchi, so how could Kitsuchi not know the impact of the Land of Frost incident?

At this moment, Mizunuki Ryosuke suddenly brought it up, which was not just as simple as bringing up the past.

But it was a real blade stabbing into Kitsuchi's heart.

"How could he know!!!"

Kitsuchi's heart suffocated, a trace of struggle flashed on his face, and his hands couldn't help but clench into fists.

From the intelligence currently mastered by the Iwa ninja, the two conflicts that broke out before and after in the Land of Frost were both actions launched by Konoha colluding with the Takigakure ninja.

Logically speaking, it should have no connection with Mist; how could this Fourth Mizukage know?

After a shock, Kitsuchi quickly cursed himself in his heart for being completely muddled and flustered.

Konoha, as an ally of Kumo, would naturally notify Kumo of its actions against the Iwa ninja, and Kumo and Mist had concluded a war treaty against Iwagakure.

Mizunuki Ryosuke learning this news through Kumo was naturally a matter of course.

Thus, Kitsuchi just found a "reason" for Mizunuki Ryosuke to know in his heart, and perfectly missed the last chance to explore the truth.

Thinking of this, the pressure in Kitsuchi's heart swelled even more.

Because at this moment in his heart, he had already outlined a huge "Anti-Earth Alliance" that did not exist.

Perhaps in the dark, Konoha, Kumo, Mist, and Takigakure had already reached a certain tacit understanding and agreement on the issue of Iwagakure.

This is simply too terrifying!

At this moment, Kitsuchi was directly scared into a cold sweat.

"What happened in the Land of Frost, I think you should be clear."

"Do you really think that if you don't surrender, you can take these 10,000 Iwa ninja back to the Land of Earth alive?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke said faintly, ripples that were hard to ask about flashing in his eyes.

He looked at Kitsuchi with a gaze full of playfulness and unfathomability; through Kitsuchi's face, Ryosuke had perfectly guessed Kitsuchi's inner thoughts.

Through the crushing on the information level and the precise control of human nature, Mizunuki Ryosuke had perfectly guided Kitsuchi to take the bait through language.

Mizunuki Ryosuke's words undoubtedly completely detonated Kitsuchi's biggest worry in his heart.

Thousands of thoughts flashed quickly in Kitsuchi's brain; for a moment, he only felt his heart was in a mess, as if his whole head was about to explode.

"Let me put it this way."

"Suppose I do nothing now and lead Mist to retreat directly."

"Kumo also agrees to negotiate peace with you and let you leave."

"Do you think you can really leave like this?"

"Konoha is indeed fighting with the Rain ninja and the Sand ninja, but do you think that alone can tie Konoha's hands and feet?"

"Do you know where the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is now? Do you know where the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan of Konoha are now?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke ignored Kitsuchi, whose mentality had completely lost balance, and continued to speak on the side.

This time, Mizunuki Ryosuke's tone carried a few traces of coldness and urgency, questioning in a tone that was almost forcing an answer.

Although it was not explicitly stated in the words that Konoha would take action against Iwagakure, every word and sentence was undoubtedly implying that Konoha would launch an attack on the road of Iwagakure's retreat!

In fact, human beings themselves are such animals.

If you are extremely unfamiliar with an idea in your heart, and have never even had such a thought.

Then no matter how others say or persuade, it will be of no avail.

But if you have fantasized about something at a certain time in your heart, if someone mentions this matter again at a certain moment to guide you, you will easily fall into it.

The sales personnel of real estate and car sales in the previous life were most proficient in this way of doing things.

And this method is not simply forcibly pouring thinking into your mind, but using language to guide the anxiety in your heart to erupt in advance.

So did Kitsuchi have worries about Konoha?

The answer is of course certain, and it is not just a problem of worry; Kitsuchi even thought that Konoha would definitely launch an attack on the Iwa ninja on the way back.

If you don't cut the weeds and eliminate the roots, the spring breeze will blow and regenerate.

Such a truth, even a three-year-old child in the Ninja World knows it, let alone the Hokage who controls the Konoha Ninja Village, the number one force in the Ninja World. ===== CHAPTER 684 =====
