This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

“And this is the real reason why the Iwagakure invaded you.

"The attraction of the Seven-Tailed Fox and other things is just a bonus."

Ryosuke didn't hide anything and told Shibuki the reason for everything. Shibuki was stunned when he heard it. It wasn't because he was stupid that he didn't understand the connection before.

It was because Takinin had lived in peace for too long and had not experienced war for too long, which was why he had never thought about it in this direction.

At this moment, Mizunoe Ryosuke suddenly said something, and he suddenly realized and understood the problem.

"Let's talk about Taki Ninja. No matter how you look at it, Taki Ninja has unique "advantages"."

"It seems that with this advantage, Takinin is born to be favored by "peace."

"Environmentally, Taki no Kōri boasts a rich water system, and Taki no Kōri Falls is a natural barrier that is easily defended and difficult to attack."

"In terms of strength, Takinin itself is at the forefront of small nations, and with the presence of Nanabi."

"Small nations cannot be compared with Taki-nin, and they dare not rashly become enemies with them; and large nations, considering their own status and the existence of the Seven-Tails, will not choose to attack Taki-nin."

"Because of these, during the last Ninja World War, even though the flames of war spread to the five major nations, Taki-nin was still able to remain unscathed."

Mizunoe Ryosuke spoke leisurely, analyzing everything about Taki Shinobu in great detail.

After hearing what Ryosuke said, all the Takinin looked at each other. What Mizunoe Ryosuke said was right, but they didn’t understand what was the point of him mentioning this at this moment?

"But what's the result? What's happening to Taki Country, which is supposed to be the most peaceful place?"

Unexpectedly, Ryosuke continued, the subject suddenly changing.

His words also made Shibuki's expression suddenly change. He seemed to understand what Mizunoe Ryosuke wanted to say.

"As it turned out, driven by the prevailing trends in the ninja world, the 'peace' that Takinin had been maintaining was truly ridiculous."

"As long as a major power is willing to humble itself and take the initiative, all the so-called factors that promoted peace in Taki Country before will be nothing but a joke."

"Seemingly impressive strength will only be easily crushed; and the so-called easy-to-defend, hard-to-attack terrain is even less worth mentioning."

"In fact, even one of the five great nations, the Land of Earth, Iwagakure, has fallen to its current state under the ravages of the Ninja World War."

"Why do you think Takinin can get the so-called peace?"

·· ····Request flowers··· ····

After these words, Shibuki turned pale, and the other Takinin elders looked even more depressed.

"With the Iwagakure shattering the Takigakure's 'peace myth', what do you think the other forces in the ninja world will think?"

"Will they think that the seemingly powerful Takinin is actually just an empty shell?"

"Some things are different only the first time and the countless times. Do you think the flames of war will continue to stay away from Taki Country in the future?"

Mizunoe Ryosuke continued to speak in a very eloquent manner, and his expression seemed as if he was just telling a story that had nothing to do with himself and was just something he heard from others.

"As for the strength you just mentioned..."

"I'm asking you what strength means. Does strength guarantee peace?"

As he spoke, Mizunoe Ryosuke suddenly raised his finger and pointed at the Takinin leader Shibuki, and Shibuki's face suddenly changed drastically.

There was no other reason. The Takinin elder lying on the ground was killed by Mizunoe Ryosuke with just one finger.

Fortunately, this time, Mizunoe Ryosuke really just looked at Fei (-Lu: Jiuqiwu

Durian

Ba Siyi pointed at him but had no intention of taking action.

When Shibuki saw that Mizunoe Ryosuke had no intention of taking action, he came to his senses and thought about what Ryosuke had said.

"The five great nations are considered powerful, right? Then what do you think of the Iwagakure? What about Konoha, the strongest of the great nations?"

"Do you think that the mighty Land of Fire, Konoha, will be invaded just because it lacks strength?"

“The strong will take from the weak and wage war; and the weak will rise up in rebellion because of the persecution of the strong.”

"The war continues to repeat itself, without end, and the Taki Ninja of Taki Country are no exception!"

Mizunoe Ryosuke once again revealed the truth of the ninja world, which is still the principle of the survival of the fittest, but it sounds shocking.

As Mizunoe Ryosuke stopped talking, the table fell into a long silence.

When the nest is overturned, all the eggs will remain intact. Mizunoe Ryosuke's meaning is very clear. Even if Taki Ninja happens to be in a seemingly comfortable "middle ground" in the ninja world, it will still be forced into the war because of the turmoil in the ninja world.

As for everyone present, at least none of them wanted war, which was closely related to the atmosphere of Takinin's seclusion for many years.

Chapter 528, Alliance of Mist

Mizunoe Ryosuke's words undoubtedly completely exposed the bloody reality of the ninja world to Shibuki.

In fact, if it weren't for the drastic change that Takinin had suffered, Shibuki probably wouldn't have taken such words to heart at any other time. But now it was different. When the flames of war actually burned upon him, he had to think about it.

Shibuki had a complicated expression. He understood that what Mizunoe Ryosuke said was right. All this was actually happening in reality.

"So how can we achieve true peace?"

"Please teach me, Mizukage-sama."

Shibuki no longer hesitated and asked Ryosuke directly.

At this moment, he knew in his heart that even if today's communication with Mizunoe Ryosuke ultimately came to nothing, he would still benefit greatly from this conversation alone.

So he simply asked Mizunoe Ryosuke directly.

Seeing Shibuki's expression, a hint of deep understanding flashed in Mizunoe Ryosuke's eyes. The reason why he wanted to give this group of Taki ninjas a warning before this "857" was to make them sit down and listen to what he had to say.

And now that Shimu has taken the initiative to ask for advice, that is naturally the best thing.

"The essence of war is actually the contradictions caused by the uneven distribution of interests between groups, which in turn leads to greater conflicts."

"The peace created by the Ninja God Senju Hashirama was achieved by uniting the previously independent ninja clans into one ninja village after another."

"Because of the fusion of the ninja clans, the original conflicts between the ninja clans were eliminated and made invisible, which in turn created a brief period of peace in the ninja world. New clusters of "ninja villages" were created in the form of ninja villages, and new "benefits" related to the ninja villages were created in order to achieve the ultimate peace."

Mizunoe Ryosuke spoke slowly, and a gleam of brilliance suddenly flashed in his eyes. He was conveying his ideas to the Takinin in front of him.

As he spoke, he glanced at the Takinin leader Shibuki in front of him. Under Mizunoe Ryosuke's violent output, Shibuki's eyes seemed a little confused.

Even the leader Shibuki was like this, not to mention the other Takinin elders, who all looked confused.

Although it was difficult to understand at first, this group of people still showed an expression of awe.

Mizunoe Ryosuke shook his head and didn't take it seriously. After all, given the level of this group of people, it was normal that they couldn't comprehend these things. He then continued to explain.

"Now it seems that Senju Hashirama has undoubtedly failed."

“Because the war still exists.

"The so-called peace is ultimately just a change of name."

"The conflict has simply changed from being between ninja clans to being between ninja villages."

"From small conflicts, it turned into large-scale conflicts between ninja villages and countries."

Upon hearing this, Shibuki and the Takinin elders exchanged glances. They had never imagined that the one-country-one-village system would have such far-reaching consequences.

What they didn't know was that the Taki Ninja, established by the Land of Waterfall in imitation of the Land of Fire, was actually promoting Hashirama Senju's peace policy invisibly.

Mizunoe Ryosuke naturally saw through the thoughts of the Takinin people at a glance, and he shook his head secretly.

What he was talking about was not actually a very complicated issue, but because of the difference in thinking, the ninjas in the ninja world found it difficult to understand.

But Mizunoe Ryosuke is completely different. He has a soul from another world and the education he received in his previous life, so he can naturally see the root cause of the constant wars in the ninja world at a glance.

This is naturally normal. Different environments create different ways of thinking. It has nothing to do with whether a person is smart or talented.

Instinctive thinking generated by the influence of the "world" environment.

Because of the existence of chakra, humans in this world can gain powerful combat power by practicing ninjutsu.

This determined that ninjas would devote more energy and wisdom to the development of ninjutsu and the growth of their strength. Few people would consider issues such as "ideology" and "social form".

This also led to the extremely distorted development of the ninja world.

There is nothing that can be done about it. In this world where individual strength is so prominent, a strong individual can easily defeat ten thousand enemies.

Therefore, most things can be accomplished by forcing others to do something.

Including now, if it weren't for Mizunoe Ryosuke forcibly subduing Takinin with his strength, it would be extremely difficult to get this group of people to sit down and listen to him.

In fact, in Mizunoe Ryosuke's heart, he had already made preparations for both scenarios.

It would be best to persuade people with reason, but if that doesn't work, then he would have no choice but to use force to forcibly resolve the current situation.

"In other words, as long as we understand the nature of war, it will be easy to find a way to resolve it..."

"Because of the uneven distribution of benefits, conflicts break out between big countries and small countries. This is the root cause of war."

"To resolve this contradiction, we must address the root cause, which means re-forming a new collective, creating new interests from the heart, and then redistributing them."

"To achieve this, we must break the one-country-one-village structure created by Hashirama Senju and form a large collective interest group in the ninja world."

“For this, I call it ‘the alliance.’”

Upon hearing this, all the Takinins trembled. Although they still had only a vague understanding of the "alliance" that Mizunoe Ryosuke mentioned, it did not prevent them from understanding in their own ways the purpose of Mizunoe Ryosuke's so much effort to promote this so-called "alliance".

Only the leader of the Takinin, Shibuki, seemed to understand something, but he was also in a dilemma.

At this point, Mizunoe Ryosuke no longer had any need to hide anything, so he spoke directly to Takinin.

"Taki Ninja wants peace, but the prerequisite is that the Ninja World must also have peace."

"The two are not in conflict; in fact, they complement each other."

"Now, an opportunity is right before your eyes."

Alliance is the best way.”

"I plan to use Kirigakure, Amegakure, and Takigakure as the core, and absorb other ninja villages to form the 'Mist Alliance'."

Mizunoe Ryosuke said, his eyes blazing as he stared at the people before him. There was no doubt that Takinin was the third or fourth "target" he had recruited for this massive plan, so he absolutely couldn't afford to lose.

Before this, all his plans for Rain Ninja and Taki Ninja were for the establishment of the Mist Alliance.

The so-called alliance or peace, in essence, is to facilitate Mizunoe Ryosuke's control over the ninja world.

Because Mizunoe Ryosuke understood that it would be extremely difficult for him to control the entire ninja world with only Kirigakure, which he controlled. He had to expand his power outward in order to bring the entire ninja world under his control.

From the very beginning, Mizunoe Ryosuke set his sights directly on the two extremely powerful small countries, Takinin and Amegakure.

As long as Takinin and Amegakurenin are recruited, the power under Mizunoe Ryosuke will inevitably expand rapidly.

It would undoubtedly be extremely difficult to directly annex these two ninja villages. After much deliberation, the best way was undoubtedly to directly bring these two ninja villages under the command of an "alliance" and as the leader of the alliance.

Chapter 529, The First Member

After Mizunoe Ryosuke expressed his attitude, it was the Takinin people who began to hesitate again.

Although they did not understand most of the things, they all knew that once they joined Mizunoe Ryosuke's so-called "alliance", it would be equivalent to becoming the wings of Kirigakure.

Especially Shibuki, who was a bit indecisive, his hesitation was completely shown on his face at this moment.

Putting aside the logic, Mizunoe Ryosuke has already made it clear what he wants, and now there are only two paths before Takinin.

Or agree to Mizunoe Ryosuke and join the so-called "Mist Alliance".

Either reject Mizunoe Ryosuke and abandon this alliance.

At the same time, they also need to think carefully, because once they reject Mizunoe Ryosuke, with his current skills, they may find it difficult to withstand the wrath of the Mizukage.

Even though he was still struggling, Shibuki knew that he had to give Mizunoe Ryosuke an answer immediately.

Finally, he took a deep breath and spoke seriously.

"Mizukage-sama, I know full well that everything you say is true."

"When the nest is overturned, no egg can remain intact. If the 24th Ninja World can achieve peace, then Taki Ninja will also naturally usher in true peace."

"But although what you said is correct, it is still too far for Takinin."

"Please also tell me, what exactly can Takinin gain by joining the alliance you have organized? And what will it cost?"

Shibuki's words are very consistent with the style of the leader of a small country's ninja village.

The so-called justice and peace are obviously not as attractive to small countries as tangible benefits.

Seeing this, Mizunoe Ryosuke was not surprised, but just smiled indifferently.

"Join the Alliance of Mist."
