This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

Although the Mizunoe clan now reigns supreme in Kirigakure, they have also made countless enemies in the village.

Due to the Third Mizukage's lack of control over the village, the village has now fallen into a vortex of internal strife and split into several factions.

A jonin promotion exam has revealed enough information.

The present-day Kirigakure.

In addition to the Mizukage faction, which represents the Mizukage and the Mizunoe clan, there is also the opposition faction led by the An Minister Yagura Karatachi.

Yagura Karatachi is also the most powerful challenger for the position of Mizukage.

According to Mizunoe Ryosuke's judgment, since Karatachi Yagura dared to challenge the authority of the Mizukage so openly, his strength had at least reached the level of "Kage", and he had another trump card in his hand that could ensure that he could confront the Mizukage head-on.

I just don’t know what Karujutsu Yagura’s current condition is, and whether he has been controlled?

Based on the original work, Mizunoe Ryosuke judged that Karatachi Yagura definitely played a key role in Madara's invasion of Mizunoe.

At the same time, the senior ninja squad leader Maeda Genshi also has obvious differences in stance with the Mizukage. In Ryosuke's judgment, this "old squad leader" should belong to the neutral faction.

However, combined with some details from the Jonin Exam, Mizunoe Ryosuke vaguely felt that this Jonin squad leader might have already shown a tendency to turn to Karatachi Yagura.

This is not good news for Mizunoe Ryosuke.

Finally, Mizunoe Ryosuke also listed the other two camps of the "Ninja Clan" and the "Seven People".

However, the strength of these two parties did not appear at the Jonin Conference, and Mizunoe Ryosuke had no way to judge their positions.

The ninja clan refers to other ninja forces except Mizunoe and Kaguya. There is no need to explain the attitudes of Mizunoe and Kaguya.

The most crucial thing is the attitude of the Ghost Lantern clan.

The Hozuki clan is the main family of the second generation Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu. Since the death of the second generation, the Hozuki clan has gradually faded out of sight.

But everyone knows that its influence and strength are still considerable, and it occupies many key departments of Kirigakure.

Ghost Lantern's unique "water-transformed" blood also gives it terrifying combat power in special environments.

Many small ninja clans even clung closely to the Hozuki clan, forming a formidable force.

Finally, Mizunoe Ryosuke emphasized the mark on the "Seven".

The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the elite ninja organization of Kirigakure.

Established and developed by the second generation Mizukage, it has now reached its peak. It is composed of seven elite jonin holding different ninja swords and is an extremely powerful force.

If seven people join forces, it will be no problem for them to fight against an ordinary Kage-level strongman.

Theoretically speaking, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen only obey the orders of the Mizukage, but in reality, Ryosuke Mizunoe has a big question mark as to whether the current Third Hokage can command the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

After careful consideration, Mizunoe Ryosuke judged that the situation was still not optimistic and he must not stand out in the open at this moment.

Be steady and stick to the "golden mean"!

Rule 2 of the Doctrine of the Mean: Never reveal any of your hidden cards unless it is necessary.

Chapter 16: A New Ninja Team

After a pause, Mizunoe Ryosuke listed the two names "Ryosuke" and "Len".

Nothing is more important than his and Lian's lives.

"call"

Then Mizunoe Ryosuke let out a long breath.

Judging from the world trajectory of the original work, Minazuki, Kaguya, and Hozuki

These once powerful clans hidden in the mist will all fall apart in the near future, with only one or two descendants remaining.

Ice Escape, Corpse Vein, Water Transformation

These abilities will gradually disappear in the history of the ninja world.

Kirigakure will also complete its transformation into "Blood Mist".

Among them, there must be the former Shura of the ninja - Uchiha Madara manipulating behind the scenes.

One can do things within one's capabilities. The cards that Mizunoe Ryosuke has kept are enough for him and Lian to survive this great change.

Even if the worst case scenario occurs and he confronts age spots head-on, Mizunoe Ryosuke is confident that he can escape unscathed.

After all, even the old Madara has the Eye of Eternity and the Outer Path Statue as his trump cards.

For a Madara like this, it would be no problem for him to kill some ordinary Kage-level warriors in seconds.

No matter how much, Mizunoe Ryosuke cannot guarantee it, he can only try his best to bring about a good ending.

After all, if one can live a stable life, who would be willing to wander around and hide their identity?

Everything needs to be considered in the long run.

But you say to rush in? It is impossible to rush in, not in this lifetime.

A few days later, as a ninja, Mizunoe Ryosuke actually got a rare vacation.

On the one hand, it was because half of Mizunoe's team was wiped out and was in the process of reorganization and recuperation.

On the other hand, Mizunoe Ryosuke, who was promoted to Special Jonin, has new options for missions and is still waiting for retraining.

During this time.

The change in Mizunoe Taki's attitude made the Mizunoe family's secret techniques and resources almost completely open to Ryosuke.

Seeing this, Ryosuke did not hesitate and started to learn the secret techniques of the Mizunoe family to improve his combat power.

At this time, there are two paths in front of Mizunoe Ryosuke.

First, join the Anbu and become an Anbu ninja.

This is an option that every ninja who is promoted to Jonin will get. Anbu ninjas have higher salaries than ordinary Jonin and have the opportunity to enjoy better resources.

Similarly, the degree of danger and difficulty of the work faced by the Anbu will increase significantly.

The second reorganized ninja team continued to complete the mission as a ninja team.

New members for the team will be selected by the Mizukage and discussed with the captain.

Without much thought, Mizunoe Ryosuke directly chose the second option.

Going to the Anbu is like walking into the enemy's hands. After all, the Anbu leader, Yagura Karatachi, is Mizunoe's number one enemy.

Mizunoe Ryosuke is not so desperate as to go and "sleep on straw and taste gall".

Reorganizing the ninja team became the best option.

Finally, one day, Mizunoe Ryosuke, who was practicing ninjutsu at home, was visited by a visitor.

The visitor was Kuroshima Morita, a jonin who was a close confidant of the Mizukage.

He also has a close relationship with Mizunoe Ryosuke, as the gangster Morita was the captain of Mizunoe Ryosuke's team when he was a Genin.

He was also the ninja who rushed to rescue the fastest when Mizunoe Ryosuke encountered the Iwagakure in the wild.

"Ryosuke, you're a good boy!"

Kuroshima Morita came up and slapped Ryosuke's shoulders several times with his rough big hands without any hesitation.

A relieved smile appeared on his rough face.

"Captain Kuroshima, I haven't thanked you for what happened last time."

Mizunoe Ryosuke touched his head, chuckled and thanked Kuroshima Morita.

"Hey! What are you thanking me for? You kid!"

"By the way, I almost forgot."

"The Mizukage asked me to come. This is the uniform of a jonin, worn on important occasions, and..."

The gangster Morita sent some standard items for Kirigakure jonin, as well as new identity credentials.

"By the way, there's also this."

As he spoke, Kuroda Morita handed a document with information to Mizunoe Ryosuke.

Mizunoe Ryosuke took it and began to read it carefully.

It turned out that this was a list of ninja information with many names on it, which detailed the ninjutsu, abilities, and backgrounds of these ninjas.

"Your request to rebuild the team has been approved. These ninjas are those who are currently waiting to be re-formed and those who have just graduated from the Ninja School."

"Please choose one from among them."

Kuroshima Morita said with a smile.

This is precisely the convenience brought about by the improvement of Mizunoe Ryosuke's status. Otherwise, it would generally be forcibly assigned by the Mizukage.

Upon hearing this, Mizunoe Ryosuke began to read it carefully. Most of the people in the table were Genin, and there were also some Chunin.

From the perspective of combat capability, choosing Chunin to form an elite team is undoubtedly the most appropriate choice.

"This is"

"It turned out to be her."

When he saw a name, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in Mizunoe Ryosuke's eyes.

"I've chosen."

"Mizunoe Mitsuhiko and Terumi Mei are the team members I need to add."

After taking the information handed over by Mizunoe Ryosuke, Kuroshima Morita took a quick glance at it.

"Well, not bad, not bad."

"You made a good choice, kid."

After Kuroshima Morita praised him.

In response to Kuroshima Morita's praise, Mizunoe Ryosuke just smiled and said nothing.

"Okay, I have things to do."

"Remember to treat me to a meal next time."

Kuroshima Morita seemed to have some official business to attend to. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, he quickly walked out the door.

"Definitely next time."

Mizunoe Ryosuke smiled and waved goodbye to Kuroshima Morita, then thought to himself that he had found a treasure.

Mei Terumi, a beautiful lady with a sexy temperament and tall figure, is also the fifth generation Mizukage in the future. She is a genius with two bloodstains.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he was just a fledgling Chunin.

As for choosing Mitsuhiko Mizunoe, Ryosuke had already learned in advance that Mitsuhiko Mizunoe was the second son of the Great Elder Mizunoe.

This choice can be considered as a kind of reward to the Mizunoe family, and it is also a means of showing the Mizukage and the family that he is close to the family.

It's a political tactic.
