Chapter 970: , Duel Between Swordsmen

And at this moment, as the samurai leader of the Land of Iron, Mifune felt an unprecedented crisis.

Yes, that's right, it was a crisis!

And this crisis would very likely cause the Land of Iron to directly lose its status as a neutral country, which was the foundation of its nation.

Because the second man to convene a Ninja World conference had appeared!

Every Ninja World conference would undoubtedly erupt with major events that shocked the entire Ninja World. The Ninja World conference would undoubtedly cause extremely significant changes in the Ninja World.

And in such changes, how the Land of Iron positioned itself would become a top priority.

Mifune would not forget that it was the foresight of the samurai leader of the Land of Iron at that time that created the unique status of the Land of Iron in the Ninja World.

Now, when such changes came again, how to choose had become a matter of top priority for Mifune and even the entire Land of Iron to maintain its lifeline.

When Mizunuki Ryosuke sent a message stating that he wanted to convene a Ninja World conference in the Land of Iron.

When the Mist would gather many forces such as the Cloud, the Sand, the Rain Ninja, and the Waterfall Ninja to plan a major event, the shock in Mifune's heart was imaginable.

Agree or refuse?

For the Land of Iron, this was undoubtedly an extremely important major event.

Not to mention the past friendship, as well as the iron sand trade between the Land of Water, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Iron that created huge profits for the three countries.

Just what Mizunuki Ryosuke showed now made Mifune have to treat it with caution.

How could Mifune, who was close to the Land of Moon, the core battlefield of the Cloud and Rock war, not know how this Mizukage defeated the arrogant Rock Ninja that day.

From Mifune's perspective, the strength of this Mizukage today was probably not much worse than the legendary God of Shinobi, Senju Hashirama.

Of course, this was just Mifune's groundless speculation without having witnessed what the power of a "God" was; at this moment, Ryosuke's strength still had a gap compared to Hashirama.

Strength is the prerequisite for ensuring everything.

This strength showed that this Mizukage was indeed qualified to convene a Ninja World conference today.

And judging from the objects invited by this Mizukage, one could roughly judge what would be said at this Ninja World conference.

After all, a little brainpower would tell you that Mizunuki Ryosuke gathering so many forces together must have something major to do.

And as for what major event? Think about who didn't come and you will know.

No matter what it was, this matter must be unfavorable to Konoha of the Land of Fire or the Rock Ninja of the Land of Earth. Therefore, the Hokage of Konoha was not on Mizunuki Ryosuke's invitation list.

Precisely because of this, Mifune found it particularly difficult to decide whether to agree to Mizunuki Ryosuke's request.

Mifune was not stupid; even if he guessed, he could guess that a shocking change was about to erupt in the Ninja World. And in this change, the Land of Iron had to choose a side.

Did he really think that as long as Mifune held the signboard of a so-called "neutral country," he could really stay out of it?

The answer was naturally impossible.

Just like the samurai leader of the Land of Iron back then, if he hadn't clearly supported Senju Hashirama, there probably wouldn't have been the advantageous status of the Land of Iron as a "neutral country" for decades.

Now, it was time for Mifune to make a choice again.

Finally, Mifune made up his mind to agree to Mizunuki Ryosuke's proposal.

Just like the Land of Iron chose to bet on Senju Hashirama many years ago. Now, Mifune also decided to bet on Mizunuki Ryosuke.

Just like when Senju Hashirama convened the Ninja World conference before, no one knew whether it would succeed.

At this moment, Mifune also could not determine what kind of plan Mizunuki Ryosuke had, and whether his plan could really succeed.

At this moment, Mifune was leading more than a dozen samurai of his personal guard, galloping in the boundless snowfield.

Because he was going to pick up an "old friend" in person.

Unlike the widely publicized Ninja World conference of the past, the Ninja World conference convened by Mizunuki Ryosuke this time was still in a state of being drawn but not fired.

In order to keep a low profile, Mifune decided to pick up that "old friend" with a great background in person.

After a period of galloping, Mifune sensed the sharp aura in the distance from far away.

Mifune would not misidentify this aura; this sharp aura that seemed to want to pierce a hole in the sky would only appear on that terrifying man.

At this moment, Mifune walked quickly to meet this sharp aura, and at the same time, he did not give in and no longer concealed the momentum on his body.

"Clang!"

At this moment, a sharp aura that was extremely similar but completely different rose from Mifune's body.

If the sharp aura on the opposite side was a domineering lone wolf who dared to face thousands of troops alone.

Then the sharp aura on Mifune's body was the aura of a general who was as immovable as a mountain and moved like thunder... ===== CHAPTER 972 =====
