Chapter 699

~5 min read 962 words

At this moment, Bi's mood was fluctuating, and he was breathing heavily.

He had thought that he had been "lion-mouthed" enough.

But he didn't expect someone to come up with a "hippo-mouthed" move directly.

Although he had already felt something wrong in his heart, Bi still couldn't understand what Huang Tu was relying on to dare to put forward this request that was clearly somewhat "unrealistic."

But when Bi saw the smile on Mizunuki Ryosuke's face, the anger in his heart slowly dissipated.

Ultimately, Bi still sat peacefully in his chair, forcing himself to calm down, wondering exactly which link he hadn't understood properly.

The attitudes of the two parties involved in the "victory" side, Mizunuki Ryosuke and Bi, could be said to form a sharp contrast.

It seemed that Mizunuki Ryosuke accepted Huang Tu's "hippo-mouthed" request a bit too calmly.

Finally, he spoke, his tone unhurried, still steady and full of demeanor.

"Since you have all finished speaking, then I will put forward demands on behalf of Kirigakure."

Regarding Huang Tu's proposal, Mizunuki Ryosuke did not directly state his attitude, but shifted the topic to Kirigakure's demands.

But still the same sentence: sometimes not refusing, doesn't that explain everything?

Seeing this, Bi's heart sank to the bottom.

He didn't understand why Mizunuki Ryosuke wanted to throw away the victory he had already obtained.

It was very clear that as long as Iwagakure was forced to surrender unconditionally, the benefits that Kumogakure and Kirigakure could obtain could be further expanded.

Even if Bi had received Mizunuki Ryosuke's teaching, Bi couldn't understand why Mizunuki Ryosuke would do this no matter what.

Even if Bi understood in his heart that Mizunuki Ryosuke must have a deeper meaning in doing so, he still couldn't look at the problem from Mizunuki Ryosuke's perspective.

But no matter what, Mizunuki Ryosuke occupied absolute dominance at the moment; although puzzled, Bi could only make plans after hearing Mizunuki Ryosuke's demands.

"Kirigakure's demands, well, they are actually very simple."

"Regarding the war compensation amount proposed by Kumogakure, I have no opinion here."

"Kirigakure demands to occupy half of the war compensation; do you two have any opinions?"

Mizunuki Ryosuke asked Bi and Huang Tu with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the two shook their heads at the same time, both indicating no opinion.

Regarding this, the two naturally dared not, and would not have any meaning.

Whether from the degree of influence on the war or from the current strength, Mizunuki Ryosuke was far ahead.

Regarding Iwagakure's war compensation, it was reasonable for Kirigakure to occupy half, and even from a reasonable point of view, even if Kirigakure took more, Kumogakure couldn't say anything.

After all, if it weren't for Kirigakure, at this moment, let alone winning the war and taking back the Land of the Moon, Kumogakure would probably find it difficult to even seek an opportunity for negotiation.

After finishing talking about "things that can be solved with money," Huang Tu's heart immediately sank a few points.

There is a saying that things that can be solved with money are not things, and things that cannot be solved with money are the most terrifying things.

With Mizunuki Ryosuke's city and means, after painstakingly winning, how could he be confined to just a few resources and money?

Dividing the war benefits was probably just the initial prelude.

As for what Mizunuki Ryosuke said: "Kirigakure's demands are very simple," Huang Tu would never believe it.

For this unfathomable Mizukage, he could only raise his guard to twelve points.

Huang Tu's heart tightened; he understood that what followed would probably be the "fatal" conditions.

Whether Iwagakure could pass this hurdle depended on whether they could pass Mizunuki Ryosuke's hurdle next.

Unlike Kumogakure, which only knew how to throw a punch first and was strong on the outside but weak on the inside, Huang Tu himself couldn't estimate how many "cards" Mizunuki Ryosuke had against Iwagakure in his hand.

Looking at Mizunuki Ryosuke's "gentle" smile that resembled a devil, Huang Tu felt a chill in his heart.

Finally, Mizunuki Ryosuke spoke again, and as soon as he spoke, it was a king bomb.

"Regarding Iwagakure's proposal, I can agree."

"The war ends in a draw, and Iwagakure can withdraw these ten thousand Iwagakure ninja back to the Land of Earth unscathed."

As soon as these words came out, Huang Tu and Bi's breathing became rapid at the same time.

Especially Huang Tu; his yellow skin instantly flushed red, and even his intense heartbeat was clearly transmitted to Mizunuki Ryosuke and Bi's ears.

While Bi frowned tightly, his already dark complexion was even more frighteningly black.

Mizunuki Ryosuke actually really agreed to Huang Tu's request!

Bi clenched his fists, his heart suddenly filled with panic.

Such an ending clearly did not conform to Kumogakure's interests!

What on earth was going on?

Looking at Mizunuki Ryosuke's elegant smile, an unknown fear swallowed Bi.

At this moment, Bi suddenly realized.

He and Mizunuki Ryosuke seemed to belong to the same camp.

But don't forget, Mizunuki Ryosuke always represented the interests of "Water," and in this point, there was an essential difference between Bi and Mizunuki.

Although Kumogakure and Kirigakure had temporarily made peace, where is there eternal friendship between countries?

There is only one eternal thing, and that is interest!!!

Just as the positions of the three people at this moment came from three completely different directions, there had never been anyone among the great nations who would be completely in one "camp."

Regarding the intersection of interests between countries, although Bi understood it in his heart—

for some reason, as soon as he thought about being an enemy of Mizunuki Ryosuke, Bi's heart suddenly became panicked.

With Mizunuki Ryosuke's means, was he really qualified?
