NOVEL NEXT Chapter 21
Chapter 21, Weird Missions
On that day, Mizuki Taki hurriedly sent someone to summon Mizuki Ryosuke, who had just completed a B-level mission, to the Mizukage office.
Mizuki Ryosuke couldn’t care less and rushed to the Mizukage building without stopping.
With doubts, Mizuki Ryosuke knocked on the door of the office that was extremely mysterious to 90% Kirin.
Don’t think that anyone can enter Ying’s office.
Normally, Mizukage doesn’t meet anyone in the office other than his henchmen.
Mizuki Taki called Ryosuke to the Mizukage office, which was strictly an attitude.
After entering the office, Mizuki Ryosuke first looked around. After all, he was still curious about such a mysterious place.
The result was a big disappointment for Mizuki Ryosuke.
In addition to the slightly larger area, this is just an ordinary office, and there is nothing strange about it.
After all, ninjas are practical and restrained.
As a shadow, you should be low-key and overly publicized, and you can’t become a ninja.
So Mizukage’s office doesn’t even look as luxurious as the offices of some big bosses in previous lives.
At the main seat of the office, Mizuki Taki has been waiting for a long time.
…………
“Cough cough……”
“Ryosuke, you are here.”
Mizuki Taki was still the same, looking like he was dying soon.
He gave a mild smile after meeting Mizuki Ryosuke.
Ryosuke and Mizukage have become much closer at the moment because of Lotus as a bond.
“Mizukage-sama, I heard that you have something to ask me.”
Although Mizuki Taki had instructed him to use other names in private, Ryosuke still showed a business-like attitude in the current situation.
“That’s right.”
“I came to you this time because I have an important task for you!”
Mizuki Taki said seriously, a majestic aura suddenly rose from his body.
It was only at this moment that Mizuki Ryosuke felt the pressure of this Third Mizukage for the first time.
“I want you to lead your team to hunt down the traitor Nakajima Koji!”
“Remember, bring back his head intact!”
As he spoke, the Third Mizukage’s eyes were full of oppression. Seems to be really angry.
“As ordered!”
At the moment, Mizuki Ryosuke agreed directly. After all, looking at Third Mizukage’s posture, there was no room for rejection.
Seeing Mizuki Ryosuke agree, Mizuki Taki’s aura gradually subsided.
“This mission… involves many things.”
“I can’t go into detail with you.”
“As long as you know, this Nakajima Koji was once picked by me.”
It seems that Mizuki Taki also knows that such a general arrangement of tasks is a bit impersonal.
So in the end, some insider information was revealed.
Hearing Mizuki Taki say this, Ryosuke suddenly understood a lot.
“This is the content of the mission and the information of Koji Nakajima.”
“Go back quickly.”
“A major event is about to happen soon, and maybe you will need your strength at that time.”
Mizuki Taki handed a quest scroll to Ryosuke, with some deep meaning in his eyes.
“Understood.”
Mizuki Ryosuke nodded, secretly memorizing everything Mizuki Taki said.
Then, instead of delaying his chat with Mizukage, he left the Mizukage building directly.
………
While giving orders to the team members, Mizuki Ryosuke also began to think about the information revealed by Mizuki Taki.
The so-called “big event” should be a top secret matter.
Because Mizuki Ryosuke has never heard from the village or clan that something “big” is going to happen to Mist Shinobi recently.
Since it is a top secret, Mizuki Ryosuke naturally cannot speculate without reason.
On the contrary, it was the task of chasing and killing rebellion, which made him see a lot of clues.
According to Mizuki Taki’s mouth, this betrayal Nakajima Koji was the one who picked him up.
Then this person should be someone who belongs to the “Mizukage faction”.
But now this suddenly defected, I am afraid that the Master still has some information about the Mizukage faction.
And Mizukage gave him orders, not Anbu to do it.
One is the trust in him.
On the other hand, in the final analysis, he still lacks control over Anbu, and he is afraid that Yagura will interfere with it.
After all, as the head of Anbu, it was easy for Yagura to intercept information from Yuki Nakajima.
At that time, the situation must be unfavorable for Mizukage, which is not what Mizuki Taki wants to see.
Furthermore, Mizuki Ryosuke guessed that it may be related to the “big event” Mizukage said.
This major event may have occupied most of Mizukage’s combat power, so that he can only recruit trusted “peripherals” like himself.
Of course, everything is just speculation by Mizuki Ryosuke.
What exactly happened, I am afraid only Mizukage himself knows.
Thinking of this, Mizuki Ryosuke sighed inwardly.
He seems to have gotten a little too close to Third Mizukage of late, which has hampered his “plan of the mean”.
Ryosuke also knew in his heart that this had something to do with the previous promotion turmoil in the Jōnin exam.
Maybe when the turmoil of the Jōnin exam is over, things like this will get better…
