This Mizukage Is Very Strong, But Overly Cautious

Chapter 77, Today Is Different From The Past!

Heaven and earth can learn, Mizuki Ryosuke came back yesterday, and after dealing with the lotus and six flowers, he went to sleep.

When I woke up, it was already daylight.

Before I had time to study, I grabbed a few bites of lotus for breakfast, and hurried to attend the Jōnin meeting.

Mizuki Ryosuke knew that something important would definitely happen at today’s meeting, but he didn’t know the specifics at all.

While Mizuki Ryosuke was still confused, Maeda Motoshi, who was presiding over the meeting, came from behind.

Maeda Yuanshi, who had come all the way, was going to sit in his seat, but he saw that his seat was already occupied by Mizuki Hidero.

So, he frowned slightly.

Looking around, Maeda Motoshi saw that there was an empty seat beside Mizuki Ryosuke.

Without saying a word, he sat directly in the vacant seat beside Mizuki Ryosuke, with no intention of stealing the main seat.

This time, Maeda Yuanshi’s attitude can be said to be revealed without a doubt.

Although there have been rumors that Jōnin’s squad leader Maeda Yuanshi has no intention of taking the position of Mizukage, he did not expect his actions to be so direct and straightforward.

At the same time, Maeda Yuanshi’s actions made Mizuki Hidero look a little ugly.

He originally thought that Maeda Genshi would sit directly on the main seat, but in order to show his attitude towards the position of Mizukage, Mizuki Hidero grabbed the position to the left of the main seat.

Unexpectedly, Maeda Yuanshi’s actions were regarded as a slap in the face.

As a result, he seemed to occupy the left position, somewhat ignorant.

“Squad Leader Maeda.”

A group of ninjas felt flattered and greeted Yuanshi Maeda again and again.

Maeda Yuanshi also responded one by one.

“Ryosuke, how did you rest last night.””

Maeda Motoji didn’t talk to the others, but just said hello to Mizuki Ryosuke.

In this regard, Ryosuke’s expression was indifferent, and he just responded lightly.

“Have a good rest, Maeda Squad Leader.”

Hearing Ryosuke’s answer, Maeda Genshi showed a somewhat stiff smile.

Although this smile looks very stiff and weird, it is nothing short of a miracle for those who are familiar with the Jōnin squad leader.

You know, this Jōnin squad leader has always been known for being old-fashioned and unsmiling, and he has never seen him take the initiative to show a smile to anyone.

During the banquet, some ninjas looked at me and I looked at you, and there was a flash of understanding in their eyes.

After saying hello to Ryosuke, Maeda Motoji’s expression returned to his unsmiling old-fashioned state.

“I won’t say more gossip, this time to call everyone here, in addition to explaining the current situation, 々.

“One more big thing. 99

“This big event must be clear to everyone. The Third Generation was killed, and the village is now headless.””

“Therefore, it is imperative to establish a candidate for the purpose of the Fourth Generation as soon as possible.35

Hearing Maeda Motoji say this, Mizuki Ryosuke was suddenly shocked.

As the so-called fan of the authorities, Mizuki Ryosuke didn’t react for a while, but when he heard the word “Mizukage” and thought about it, he instantly understood all the joints.

“Now, let me talk about the current situation in the village.”

“Let everyone be aware. 35

Afterwards, Maeda Yuanshi officially disclosed the conspiracy of Yutachi Yagura in front of everyone, and the process of Third Mizukage and Yutachi Yagura’s battle of wits and courage throughout the operation.

Finally, after the battle, some losses to the village were mentioned.

During this period, Mizuki Ryosuke had no intention of listening at all.

Instead, he immersed himself in his own thoughts.

No wonder, as soon as he entered the room, Kuroshima Morita said something to him.

No wonder Hidero Mizuki and the rest of the clan don’t like him.

No wonder, Maeda Yuanshi and Guideng Manyue have such a big change in their attitude towards him.

Because at this moment, Mizuki Ryosuke has become one of the most likely candidates for Mizukage in the entire village!

Thinking of this, Mizuki Ryosuke froze for a while.

Subconsciously, Mizuki Ryosuke still acquiesced to himself as the little-known character before.

But in the eyes of others, Ryosuke’s identity and status have already undergone earth-shaking changes.

Especially after the death of Third Mizukage.

Who will inherit the position of Fourth Mizukage next?

Without Mizuki Ryosuke, Eiro Mizuki, the son of the great elder, as a gifted member of the clan in recent years, would definitely inherit the legacy of the Third Generation and compete with Manmotsuki for the position of Mizukage.

But now, with the strength and literacy that Mizuki Ryosuke has shown, everything is completely different.

Although Mizuki Ryosuke usually has a status in the Mizuki clan, his foundation is far less than that of Mizuki Hidero.

But don’t forget, Ryosuke himself bears the name Mizuki.

Most importantly, Ryosuke himself is the ‘son-in-law” appointed by the Third Mizukage Mizuki Taki and his wife!

With this level of relationship, at first glance Mizuki Ryosuke is more qualified to inherit the “legacy” of the Third Generation than Mizuki Hideo

.

The legacy here, of course, does not refer to the property left by Third Mizukage.

Rather, it refers to the connections and political influence Third Mizukage left in the village.

Among Mist Shinobi, Third Mizukage’s original power is roughly divided into three aspects.

First of all, it is naturally derived from the power of the Mizuki clan. The Third Generation is the patriarch of the Mizuki clan. Of course, there is nothing to say about this.

Secondly, there is the Mizukage Guard, which was formed by the Third Generation, which is a force directly under the Third Generation and consists of elite ninjas under his command.

Finally, there are ninjas trained by the Third Generation in the village. These ninjas are also loyal to the Third Generation and receive the favor of the Third Generation, but they have neither joined the Mizukage Guards nor are the ninjas of the Mizuki clan.

It can be regarded as “`々 foreign surname ninja”,

Kuroshima Morita is undoubtedly one of the representatives.

Right now, Third Generation is dead.

These ninjas naturally have to bet in advance to find new support objects.

In order to obtain the corresponding return after the opponent takes the lead.

Among the Mizuki clan, Mizuki Eiro is deeply rooted, and even before Mizuki Ryosuke showed his prominence, Mizuki Eiro was cultivated by the Mizuki clan as the next patriarch.

At this moment, even if Ryosuke suddenly appeared as a dark horse, he still could not shake the foundation of Hidero in the clan.

Originally, if there was no Mizuki Ryosuke, the members of the water (good) shadow guards and ninjas from other surnames would definitely be under the command of Mizuki Hidero to support his successor Mizukage.

But now, the appearance of Mizuki Ryosuke has given these surname ninjas and Mizukage Guard members new options.

Especially these ninjas with foreign surnames, when they knew that the roots of Mizuki Eiro were more of the Mizuki family, why did they still turn to Mizuki Eiro?

They know in their hearts that even if they support Eiro Mizuki now, and the other party takes over in the future, they will not be able to compete with the ninjas of the Mizuki family.

In that case, why not choose to support Mizuki Ryosuke?

Combined with Kuroshima Morita’s words, Mizuki Ryosuke is not difficult to see.

The forces left by the Third Mizukage have now split into two sides.

One side supports him, and the other side supports Mizuki Hidero.

The ninjas of the Mizuki clan stood on Mizuki Eiro’s side, while the ninjas from the village were on his side.

The Elite Ninja Gate of the Mizukage Guard is a two-way bet, and the people supporting each side are mixed.
