Chapter 98: , what are you still pretending for?

"Hozuki Mangetsu!!"

"What exactly is going on here!!!"

Juzo Yagura's face became extremely gloomy; he never expected that the situation would take a sharp turn for the worse in an instant.

Right now, anyone who wasn't a fool could see that Hozuki Mangetsu's sudden appearance was specifically targeting him.

Facing Juzo Yagura's changing expression, Hozuki Mangetsu just sneered without a word, not making a rash move.

Because for Hozuki Mangetsu, as long as he dragged out the time, the win rate would constantly increase.

Time was now completely on the Mizukage's side.

As long as Mizunuki Taki completely finished unsealing the Three-Tails and freed up his hands, the Mizukage's side would directly add an "Kage"-level combat force.

This weight would instantly tip the scales of the war.

"Suikazan, your look right now is truly ugly."

Before Hozuki Mangetsu could speak, a ninja beside him, carrying a giant wide-bladed longsword, with a fierce appearance and an eyepatch over one eye, was the first to mock Suikazan Fuguki.

Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Blastsword: Splash — Kuriarare Kushimaru!

"Exactly, exactly!"

Beside Kuriarare Kushimaru, a man as short as a dwarf echoed in agreement.

Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Twin Swords: Hiramekarei — Hozuki Grass-Mustard.

"Such an act of rebellion violates the original intention of the Second Mizukage in creating the Seven Swordsmen."

"Suikazan Fuguki, we are ashamed to be associated with you!"

Finally, a middle-aged man who looked the most normal compared to his eccentric teammates said solemnly, his eyes full of contempt as he looked at Suikazan Fuguki.

Seven Ninja Swordsmen, Blunt Sword: Helmet Splitter — Akebino Jinin.

Seeing this situation, not only was Suikazan Fuguki directly mocked, but even Juzo Yagura beside him had an equally ugly expression.

That's right, the remaining three of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen all belonged to the forces controlled by the Hozuki clan.

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen were originally created by the Second Mizukage; after the Second Mizukage died, it was only natural for them to be close to Hozuki Mangetsu, the orphan of the Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu.

At this moment, Hozuki Mangetsu jumping out to oppose him was equivalent to directly wiping out the advantage Juzo Yagura held in the combat power of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

It was foreseeable that, excluding the already severely injured Black Hoe Raiga, the next part would be a three-on-three duel.

"Hozuki Mangetsu, this matter originally had nothing to do with the Hozuki, so why bother getting involved?"

"Since Mizunuki Taki took office, you and I both know the situation in the village."

"I am also wholeheartedly doing what's best for the village."

"Why must you insist on standing on the same boat as him?"

"If you don't want to help me, you don't have to help him either."

"As long as you retreat now, after I deal with the Third, I can directly hand the Mizukage position to you."

Juzo Yagura said to Hozuki Mangetsu with sincere words, his eyes full of a genuine expression.

At this moment, Juzo Yagura even went so far as to offer the Mizukage position as a promise, putting on the image of a good person who was "wholeheartedly for the village."

"Hahahaha!!!!"

But who would have thought that after hearing Juzo Yagura's words, Hozuki Mangetsu suddenly burst into laughter, even shedding a few tears from the corners of his eyes.

"What are you laughing at!"

Juzo Yagura barked with an ugly face.

Although anyone could hear that the credibility of his words wasn't high, he didn't believe that Hozuki Mangetsu wouldn't be tempted by the Mizukage position.

"I'm laughing, of course, at how ridiculous you are!"

Hozuki Mangetsu rebuked Juzo Yagura mercilessly.

"You don't really think I'd believe your ghost stories, do you!"

"And, nothing to do with the Hozuki?"

"Everyone who dares to get involved with the Rock ninjas is an enemy of the Hozuki!"

Saying this, a trace of hostility flashed in Hozuki Mangetsu's eyes, and his gaze toward Juzo Yagura was no longer hidden.

"What do you mean by that!"

Hearing this, Juzo Yagura's heart skipped a beat, and his mood plummeted to the bottom.

"What do I mean?" ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
