The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

The more Mizuno Satoru saw Shibuki's behavior, the more disappointed he became. He really hoped that Shibuki could become stronger and more courageous, instead of acting so timidly.

This is absolutely not the behavior expected of a qualified ninja village leader.

However, Satoru Mizuno did not show it on his face at all.

Instead, she gently shook her head, and with a tender expression, stroked Shibuki's head, saying, "No, you've done very well. There's no need to blame yourself so much. How is Shuiyan doing? Shibuki, I've been unconscious for several days now. Have you heard anything else? Have you managed to capture Shuiyan?"

This is currently the most important problem for Takigakure Village.

As mentioned before.

Mizuno Gota understands hookah well.

If the hookah is not dealt with in time, their Takigakure village will face great chaos.

"Ah, don't worry, Grandpa Wu. I've already located the hookah and sent Ajun-san with his men to hunt it down. As long as nothing too unexpected happens, we should be able to bring the hookah back safely."

When this is mentioned...

Shibuki nodded emphatically, speaking with a rare air of certainty.

"Oh? Is that so? That's good. You can add another order: if the hookah resists fiercely, kill it on the spot without any hesitation."

Upon hearing Shibuki's reply.

Mizuno Satoru was immediately invigorated.

If we can really get rid of this rogue ninja, Shuiyan, in a short time.

The internal strife in the village can be quickly quelled.

There's no need to worry about too many things.

"Should we just kill them outright? Grandpa Wu, isn't that a bit too much..."

Shibuki hesitated for a moment. Even now, he felt that if the problem could be solved through negotiation, they should try not to go to the last step. After all, his relationship with Suigan was still relatively good, and there was also Fu. Shibuki felt that he still needed to think about it more.

"Shibuki, this is a critical issue concerning the stability of the ninja village. You cannot hesitate at all!"

Seeing that Shibuki's old habit had relapsed, Mizuno Satoru also spoke with a very solemn expression and in the sternest tone.

Hesitation will only lead to more trouble.

Shibuki's gentle nature is an advantage, but for a ninja village leader, excessive gentleness is a disaster.

A leader should certainly have a kind heart and a love for others, but he should never be unrestrained and indulgent, as that would be a great threat to himself and the entire ninja village.

Hookah smokers have already betrayed the village.

For Takigakure Village and for Shibuki, he was an enemy that had to be eliminated. He didn't betray them because of differing ideologies or any other unspeakable reasons; he betrayed them outright because of their power and status.

Then there can be no hesitation whatsoever.

It must be dealt with immediately.

Seeing Mizuno Satoru's extremely stern expression.

The words that were about to come out of Shibuki's mouth were swallowed back. After a moment of silence with a hesitant look on his face, he slowly nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. Don't worry, Grandpa Wu, I will give the order in a moment."

"Yes, that's right. You are the leader of our Takigakure Village, so you must show the corresponding magnanimity and not be soft-hearted in any way."

It was seen that the wood was not so stable and weak.

Mizuno Satoru finally showed a look of relief. He was afraid that if the child continued to be so soft-hearted, how could he possibly keep the entire ninja village in check?

"You don't need to worry about anything here. Just remember your place. The current situation in the ninja world is very delicate. You must be able to handle things properly."

Mizuno Satoru let out a long sigh and said with a very serious expression.

"Yes, Grandpa Wu, I know, I will definitely not let you down."

"Okay, that's good. By the way, how was that hookah guy's whereabouts exposed?"

Mizuno Satoru nodded in satisfaction, then, as if he had just thought of something, asked directly.

"Oh? It was that girl Fu who found out. That bastard Shuiyan even tried to kidnap Fu, but Fu seriously injured her on the spot. She sent Yue to deliver the message, which is why I sent Ajun and the others to chase after her. If everything goes smoothly, we should be able to capture Shuiyan within the next day or two. Given that she was seriously injured by Fu, it's impossible for Shuiyan to have escaped too far."

Shemu was taken aback at first, but then answered quite naturally.

"Oh? Is that so? It was Fu... no, Fu who found out? That hookah guy went to Fu?"

Mizuno Satoru nodded subconsciously.

Then, as if realizing something, his expression suddenly changed.

Mizuno Satoru is not Shibuki.

My understanding of hibiscus and water pipes goes far beyond that of shibuki.

Although there is no direct evidence.

But it was this very conversation that sparked a very dangerous thought in Mizuno Satoru's mind.

"Yes, what's wrong, Grandpa Wu?"

Shibuki was taken aback by Mizuno Satoru's sudden change in expression and was completely unable to react to what was going on.

"Quickly, tell me everything that has happened recently, especially about what happened with Fu!"

Old ginger is spicier.

This keenly sensed danger.

Mizuno Satoru immediately spoke, looking at Shibuki with an unprecedentedly cold expression.

Chapter 208 Formal Contact

Shibuki was also frightened by Mizuno Satoru's 'terrifying' expression.

But subconsciously, he still told Mizuno Satoru everything that had happened in the past few days.

Mizuno Satoru listened intently with a serious expression on his face.

Everything was fine up to that point.

However, when he heard that Fu had come to see Shibuki, asked about his situation, and even suggested that he go and see Fu's cultivation results after he recovered, he was shocked.

Mizuno Satoru's expression turned extremely ugly.

"So that's how it is? So that's how it is!?"

Mizuno Satoru closed his eyes, his expression clearly unpleasant.

"What on earth is going on, Grandpa Wu?"

Shibuki, however, remained completely bewildered, utterly oblivious to what was happening.

"Shemu, leave the village right now and meet up with Ajun and the others. Hurry, there's still time. Remember, make sure to take the Hero's Water with you. After you meet up with Ajun and the others, come back to the village, understand?!"

Mizuno Satoru gripped Shibuki's shoulder tightly with his withered right hand, his wide eyes revealing a terrifying expression.

"Why? Grandpa Wu, what's wrong here? You have to tell me..."

Shibuki was completely bewildered by Mizuno Satoru's sudden change in attitude.

He couldn't understand the current situation at all.

It was fine just now, wasn't it?

Why does your expression suddenly look like the end of the world is coming?

"You silly boy, of course it's because..."

"That's because if you don't leave soon, Lord Shibuki, you might die here!"

Just as Mizuno Satoru looked anxious and was about to say something.

Suddenly.

A clear voice rang out in the somewhat quaint room.

There was clearly no third person.

But it was this voice that suddenly appeared.

This caused both Mizuno Satoru and Shibuki's expressions to change abruptly.

"Who goes there!?"

Shemu immediately stood up, pulled out a kunai with his backhand, and placed it horizontally in front of him, looking warily in the direction from which the voice came.

"Hehe, so this is the one who came to save you, Lord Shibuki."

Words fell again.

"Da da da"

The crisp sound of footsteps followed.

As a tall, slender figure came into view, Shibuki noticed...

Shibuki's pupils involuntarily contracted.

"Fangfang-san!?"

The moment Mizuno Satoru, sitting behind him, heard the words he uttered unconsciously, his gaze sharpened.

"Save me? Why do you say that? And how did you get in here, Yifang-san?! This place is a forbidden area of ​​our Takigakure Village!"

It was a completely unexpected turn of events.

Even if Shibuki were naive, he knew that the young man in front of him was no ordinary person. As the leader, Shibuki knew better than anyone how heavily guarded his village was, not to mention that this was where his elder, Satoru, was recuperating. It was practically a place with guards every three steps and sentries every five steps.

They can sneak in silently.

The fact that they couldn't detect anything themselves was enough to prove the strength of the newcomer.

"Of course, it means exactly what it says, Lord Shibuki. Didn't Elder Go just tell you to leave the village immediately? That's because Elder Go also saw the danger you were about to face, Lord Shibuki. As for how you got in, hehe, I used a little trick to cover my tracks. Please forgive me for that, Lord Shibuki. Ah, nice to meet you, Elder Go. My name is Accelerator, and I am a ninja from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire."

Menma smiled and first explained to Shibuki, then looked at Mizuno Satoru in the back seat and bowed slightly.

"What!?"

This is the behavior of a riddle-solving person.
