This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

According to Tsunade's words, the second generation Hokage, Senju Tobirama, also came to this place.

Ryosuke guessed that the reason Tobirama came to the Wet Bone Forest was probably for the magic.

As for why Senju Tobirama also practiced immortal arts but never showed it in the original work, the reason is very simple - of course he failed in his practice.

"It seems that the Second Hokage does not have the talent to practice Senjutsu."

Ryosuke sighed in his heart.

"call"

What Ryosuke didn't notice was that there was an indescribable complexity in Tsunade's eyes. What he didn't know was that, apart from the three people in the photo, he was the first person to come here.

Soon, Tsunade came to Ryosuke with a pot of hot tea. After serving it to Ryosuke personally, she stopped talking.

"I never thought I would be able to see the traces left by Hashirama-sama and Tobirama-sama in my lifetime."

Mizunoe Ryosuke held the hot tea handed to him by Tsunade and said with some emotion.

Hearing this, a hint of nostalgia and sadness flashed across Tsunade's eyes, but she quickly recovered.

"Mr. Mizukage, have you also paid attention to the affairs of Grandpa and Second Grandpa?"

Tsunade still addressed Mizunoe Ryosuke with a respectful title, but there was a hint of distance between their words.

"Of course, the names of the First and Second Hokage are known to everyone in the ninja world."

"Hashirama-sama's courage in creating peace in the ninja world is admirable."

Mizunoe Ryosuke did not care about the alienation in Tsunade's words, but praised Hashirama generously.

"Mizukage-sama, do you also admire the Hokage?"

Tsunade was a little surprised to see Ryo 2.2suke's attitude.

There are tense relations between the different ninja villages.

Theoretically speaking, at this moment, Mizunoe Ryosuke has the same status as Senju Hashirama, but his attitude is full of respect from a junior to an elder, which also surprised Tsunade.

"of course."

"Whether it's strength, courage or pattern."

"No one in the ninja world can compare to Hashirama-sama."

A hint of seriousness flashed in Mizunoe Ryosuke's eyes. After all, with the extraordinary strength of Hashirama Senju, he was definitely enough to dominate the ninja world.

And whether in terms of moral integrity or the principles he has always adhered to, Hashirama Senju is indeed worthy of the title of "God of Ninja".

Although Hashirama Senju's wish to divide the nine tailed beasts and create peace for future generations was completely shattered, he also managed to end the chaotic times, suppress the previous generation, and create a relatively stable one-country-one-village system for the ninja world.

Senju Hashirama is undoubtedly a great ninja.

Chapter 177, Just Because of One More Look

Ryosuke's politeness made Tsunade's inner defense relax a little.

If it wasn't from the heart, given Mizunoe Ryosuke's status and identity, there was no need for him to praise Senju Hashirama.

It can be seen that Mizunoe Ryosuke is indeed in awe of the God of Ninja, Hashirama Senju.

Tsunade felt a little proud that everything her ancestors had done was recognized by the Kage of the hostile ninja village, and her eyes looking at Ryosuke became softer.

But some things cannot be avoided after all, and there must always be a reasonable explanation.

Ryosuke had no intention of hiding this, and spoke slowly.

"You may not know that two years ago, Kirigakure experienced a severe internal turmoil, and I succeeded to the position of Mizukage at that time."

"During that turmoil, the Anbu Minister rebelled, the Third Mizukage was killed, and Kirigakure's high-level combat forces were reduced by more than half. Kirigakure was almost unable to recover."

Mizunoe Ryosuke spoke slowly, his expression very calm, as if he had no idea that what he was saying was definitely a secret in the ninja world.

In fact, due to the strenuous concealment of the turmoil within Kirigakure by Kirigakure's top management, other ninja villages in the ninja world were only roughly aware of the occurrence of the turmoil, and had no idea what price Kirigakure paid in the process.

Perhaps only the top leaders of the five major ninja villages could know about this matter through their unique intelligence channels.

At this moment, 27 Ryosuke told the inside story of the turmoil in Kirigakure without hiding anything, which made Tsunade look slightly surprised.

Tsunade was a little surprised. She didn't know why Mizunoe Ryosuke mentioned this matter. At the same time, she was a little at a loss as to what to do about Ryosuke suddenly revealing the secret of the Kirigakure high-level officials.

But little did people know that what Mizunoe Ryosuke was going to tell next was the real "secret".

"About a month ago, an extremely dangerous entity was unearthed from within Kirigakure."

"This person has been hiding inside Kirigakure for many years, destroying Kirigakure in the dark."

"After investigation, I found that both the death of the Third Mizukage and the rebellion of the Anbu were the result of this person's secret manipulation."

"And I suspect that this person was behind the rebellion of the previous generation of Anbu minister."

When Ryosuke said this, Tsunade's face was full of helplessness.

Such top-secret information is definitely the deepest secret in the village. How could Mizunoe Ryosuke reveal it to her like this?

Isn't Ryosuke afraid that she will leak this information?

The value of this information is enough for Konoha to launch an S-level mission alone to obtain it.

"But this man was much more cunning than I thought when I set out to capture him."

"He has already escaped."

"According to my intelligence, this person is currently hiding inside the Rain Country."

Mizunoe Ryosuke spoke again, looking very serious.

At this point, Tsunade already understood that the reason Mizunoe Ryosuke told her this was to explain why he appeared in the Rain Village.

In this way, Tsunade suddenly understood.

"No wonder he, the Mizukage, would appear in an underground intelligence agency. That's why."

"I think it's to get information about that 'traitor ninja'."

Tsunade said to herself in her heart, recalling everything that happened between the two of them in the casino. Through Mizunoe Ryosuke's description, she had automatically taken on the role that Ryosuke was pursuing and became a "rebel ninja" of Kirigakure.

Little did they know that the "rebel ninja" that Ryosuke was talking about had an unimaginably powerful background.

In fact, Ryosuke did not lie, he just made some "modifications" in key parts. He also never admitted that he was tracking down a rebel ninja from Kirigakure. Everything was preconceived by Tsunade herself.

The direct cause of Mizunoe Taki's death was the rebellion of Yagura Karutagi, while the indirect cause was that Yagura Karutagi was secretly controlled by Uchiha Madara using illusion.

And Black Zetsu himself has the identity of Uchiha Madara's "incarnation of consciousness", doesn't this correspond to what Ryosuke said?

One of the reasons why he personally rushed to the Land of Water was indeed to track down the whereabouts of Black Zetsu.

"You tell me these, aren't you afraid?

Tsunade seemed to be hesitant to speak, because the price paid for Mizunoe Ryosuke's explanation was a little too heavy.

This information involves the absolute secrets of Kirigakure and is extremely important.

"Not afraid."

"Because you can't."

Ryosuke Mizunoe looked at Tsunade on the opposite side with burning eyes. At this moment, she only saw trust and gentleness in Ryosuke's eyes.

"I believe you too."

Although this was just a casual remark, Tsunade was still unable to say it out loud.

"I"

At this moment, Tsunade's heart was almost overwhelmed by guilt. She opened her mouth, but in the end she was unable to say the words in her throat.

Ryosuke didn't care too much about this and just smiled.

"I think you have guessed what happened next. In order to obtain information about this person, I went to the underground intelligence station of Rain Village."

"After failing to obtain intelligence from the underground intelligence station, I used my technique, 'Magic Mirror Simulation'."

"I have once again infiltrated the mansion of Hanzo the Salamander, intending to obtain the information I want there."

"And then I encountered the battle between you and the Rain Ninja."

Mizunoe Ryosuke told the whole story in one breath, and everything he said was true, without a single lie.

It's just that Ryosuke concealed some things and glossed over them in a perfunctory manner.

For example, the cooperation he reached with Hanzo, and the existence of Nagato and the Samsara Eye.

Of course, everything that Mizunoe Ryosuke said on the surface was the real truth, without any fabrication.

"Then why"

"You will save me."

After going around in circles, everything returned to the starting point. Tsunade asked again with mixed and nervous mood.

"Because you are the princess of the Senju clan and the disciple of the Third Hokage."

"Once you die in Rain Village, it will inevitably trigger a new round of war in the ninja world."

"As the Fourth Mizukage, I cannot sit idly by and watch such a result happen."

"Most importantly, because you are"

"Senju Tsunade! Princess Tsunade with her dazzling charm!"

"Even if I strip you of your identity, I will never sit back and watch you die before my eyes."

Mizunoe Ryosuke 680 said this righteously, and the information contained in his words made Tsunade completely at a loss.

"Me me me"

Mizunoe Ryosuke's words suddenly turned Tsunade into a little stutterer, and she stammered and couldn't say a word for a long time.

This man's words were tantamount to telling Tsunade directly, I saved you because of you.

At the same time, the deep meaning implied in these words made the innocent Tsunade in her youth unable to cope with it.

Her originally tense expression softened again, an imperceptible shyness crept up to her eyebrows, and her fair cheeks once again faintly glowed with red.

"If you ask me why."

"I can only answer that maybe it was just because I took one more look at you in the casino."

Finally, Ryosuke added a finishing touch.

The gentle tone, coupled with Mizunoe Ryosuke's handsome face and charming smile, made the power of this "killing blow" directly reach the "MAX" level.

"Well"

Tsunade's cheeks flushed instantly, and she followed the instinctive choice of humans when faced with such incidents - escape.

"I'm going outside to pick mushrooms!"

After leaving behind some incomprehensible words, Tsunade suddenly stood up and ran out of the tree fort. Her somewhat disheveled figure looked like a frightened little white rabbit.

Looking at Tsunade who had transformed into a "mushroom-picking girl", Ryosuke did not choose to "pursue the victory", but chose to sit there and watch Tsunade leave.

Chapter 178: Not planning for eternity, but planning for the moment

Watching Tsunade leave, Ryosuke did not choose to stop her.

He was just sipping the light tea that Tsunade had just personally served him, his eyes filled with strange waves.

Those who do not plan for the overall situation cannot plan for a small part.

Those who do not plan for eternity cannot plan for the moment.

For many years, the chaos in the ninja world has never stopped.

But if you study it carefully, you will find that there is a point that cannot be avoided in any way.

That is - Konoha, the Land of Fire!

In fact, this is something that cannot be avoided. After all, the world where Ryosuke is located is called "Naruto". Throughout the timeline of the entire world, there must be one or two characters from Konoha who dominate the changes in the entire ninja world.

Even all the crises in the entire ninja world, to sum up, are actually crises that spread from within Konoha.

Almost all the top villains in Naruto, one by one, have a close connection with Konoha.

If Mizunoe Ryosuke wants to realize his ambitions and rest assured, Konoha is an obstacle that he cannot avoid.

No matter how things develop in the future, Konoha's combat power and size, which are the best in the ninja world, are there, and this is something that Mizunoe Ryosuke cannot ignore.
