This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

The other senior ninjas were no longer surprised by this situation, as it seemed that such situations often occurred.

It's not just the Kaguya family. The Mizunoe family also often vetoes the promotion of Kaguya clan members to Jonin.

It wasn't just the Kaguya clan who cast the veto. Mizunoe Ryosuke also noticed that Karatachi Yagura and the ninjas around him all vetoed his promotion to Jonin.

Although the senior ninja squad leader Maeda Genshi himself did not agree, there were three or two people around him who expressed their agreement.

It also saves the Mizukage's face.

The remaining ninjas who expressed their agreement sat down scatteredly. They should all be senior ninjas from the Mizukage faction.

All in all, there are about forty votes.

The number of participants had already exceeded 30%, so Mizunoe Ryosuke passed this level easily.

But the current situation made Mizunoe Ryosuke couldn't help but frown.

There were about ninety jonin attending the meeting, including more than twenty jonin from the Mizunoe family.

Mizunoe Ryosuke was promoted to Jonin, and this was at the instruction of the Mizukage. Anyone who is not blind should be able to see it.

After all, the surname Mizunoe is there, which is enough to explain some problems.

But the current results are not very good.

Thinking hard.

A clan member nominated by the Mizukage didn't even get more than half of the votes in favor!

Not to mention that there are also some great ninjas and Anbu ministers who have rebelled and openly sang a different tune.

It's like the mayor nominates his brother-in-law to build a road, but half of his subordinates disagree.

This is a pretty dangerous ratio.

The jonin class is the foundation of the village, and the Kage's control over the jonin is less than half. This is a very dangerous signal!

Moreover, there are also some ninjas from the Mizunoe family among them. You should know that normally, there would not be so many ninjas from the Mizunoe family coming to attend the meeting.

In reality, Mizunoe Taki's control over the village's jonin should be around 30%.

Danger! Extremely dangerous!

As the saying goes, it's nice to lean against a big tree for shade, but looking at the situation of the third generation, this is not a big tree at all, it's clearly an old tree that is about to wither!

Mizunoe Ryosuke knew very well that since he was born into the Mizunoe clan, he could not escape this innate identity.

Judging from the current situation, Anbu Minister Yagura Karatachi and the Kaguya clan are undoubtedly his biggest enemies in his current identity!

"It seems my strategy of keeping a low profile was correct!"

Mizunoe Ryosuke once again confirmed his countermeasures in his heart.

I am also more determined to be "mediocre" to the end.

Soon, the promotion process moved on to the next item.

Mizunoe Ryosuke is still the last one to appear.

Except for Daishi Miyake who failed to pass the vote, the remaining four people had to choose one of the attending jonin to compete with.

The first to appear is a young ninja named Kato Ichiro. Judging from his appearance, he can be considered a "talented" ninja to be able to take the Jonin exam at this age.

Although he felt unfamiliar with Kato Ichiro and Mizunoe Ryosuke, he had heard a little about the "Kato" family.

The Kato clan is considered a small ninja clan in Kirigakure. There are three or five senior ninjas in the family, and they have a wide range of connections in the village.

Soon, the drawing of lots was over, and Kato Ichiro chose a middle-aged jonin.

Mizunoe Ryosuke keenly discovered that at the moment when this ninja was extracted, Kato Ichiro and the middle-aged ninja smiled at each other briefly.

At this moment, Mizunoe Ryosuke seemed to understand something.

really.

The world of ninja is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships.

If nothing unexpected happens, Ichiro Kato should be promoted relatively easily.

Sure enough, it was just as Mizunoe Ryosuke had expected.

Both players followed the principle of "stop when the time is right" in their fight. After a fight of mutual restraint, the game was judged to be a draw.

It was obvious that the two had met before, and relying on their relationship, the middle-aged senior ninja easily let Kato Ichiro pass.

Compared to Kato Ichiro, the ninja named Hara Hidenori was not so lucky.

He drew an Anbu ninja who had an extremely cold aura and was sitting next to Karujutsu Yagura.

Before the two started fighting, Hara Hidenori looked extremely ugly.

After the big move, the Anbu ninja showed no mercy at all. This Anbu ninja was extremely powerful.

Even among the jonin, he is absolutely elite, commonly known as the "elite jonin".

This is nothing more than being able to sit next to Karuju Yagura.

Within ten rounds, Yuan Xiu Ze was defeated.

When it came to the third battle, the two sides were evenly matched, and finally Jiang Zhishu was recognized by the fighting ninja.

Both sides agreed that the game ended in a draw.

It can be seen that this ninja named Jiang Zhishu is quite powerful and has reached the level of a senior ninja.

After Mizunoe Ryosuke secretly memorized the name, he prepared to step forward for the competition.

Like the previous ones, the "selecting opponents" part was completed by the senior ninja squad leader Maeda Genshi.

When Master Tian Yuan drew a lot with the name of a jonin written on it from the lot box in front of him which was filled with the names of the participating jonin, some ninjas with better eyesight showed expressions of gloating.

"Who is Mizunoe Ryosuke's opponent?"

"Kaguya Yuta!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone gasped.

There's a good show to watch! .

Chapter 9, Showdown between old enemies

Yuta Kaguya.

The well-deserved genius of the Hyuga clan!

He awakened his blood at the age of seven, became a ninja at the age of eight, and was promoted to Jonin at the age of sixteen!

Even Kaguya Yuuta was once touted as the "Number One Genius of Kirigakure".

But in fact, Kaguya Yuu discovered the difference between him and his strong-limbed but simple-minded tribe members very early on.

This is the secret that Kaguya Yuuta has always kept hidden.

On the surface, Kaguya Yuuta pretends to be silly in order to fit in with his tribe.

But in fact, Kaguya Yuuta had other ideas in his mind.

All members of Kaguya's clan are proud of having muscles as strong as rocks, and they always fight the enemy head-on.

Running away and resorting to scheming and intrigue will be considered a disgrace by the tribe.

Anything that requires thinking for more than three minutes will be thrown out of the mind of the Hyuga people, who choose to "follow their feelings."

Such characteristics make for extremely brave warriors.

However, it also created the current situation of the Hyuga clan.

When all the clan members were immersed in the glorious past of their ancestors, only Yuta was worried about the future of the Hyuga clan.

Strength and pride will blind one's eyes, which is commonly known as becoming "inflated".

It turns out that it was not only the Uchiha clan who was blinded by pride, but also the Kaguya clan.

There is no doubt that Kaguya is powerful, but facts have proved that no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot resist the trend of the times.

Kaguya's current situation in the Hidden Mist Village can be said to be a replica and a reduced version of Konoha Uchiha's.

The embarrassing thing is that the strength of the Hyuga clan seems to be somewhat inferior to that of the Uchiha clan.

At present, the fog is hidden and the wind and rain are blowing. Anyone can see that change and crisis seem to be happening right now.

But this does not affect the pride and ambition of the Hyuga clan at all.

Kaguya is the "Number One in Kirigakure", and this is what the Kaguya clan believes at all times.

Instead, they believed that the position of "Mizukage" seemed to be within Kaguya's grasp.

Her undisguised ambition and arrogance not only made Kaguya a thorn in the side of the Mizukage and the object of disgust of other Kirigakure ninjas, but also turned her into a tool in the hands of ambitious people.

But even so, the Hyuga clan is still unaware and is pushing themselves into the fire pit step by step!

terrible!

Kaguya Yuuta felt that as the only sane person in his tribe, he had to stop all this from happening.

Originally, Kaguya Yuuta planned to adopt the "boiling frog in warm water" approach.

But as the "son of the clan leader", Kaguya Yuuta already knows some secrets.

This made Kaguya Yuta realize that there was no time left and he had to take action immediately.

And all of this will start from this ordinary "Jonin Exam".

Thinking of this, Kaguya Yuuta smiled complacently.

This smile was also seen by the Hyuga people as a sign of confidence that they had already "secured victory."

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, Kaguya Yuuta received a loud slap on the neck.

The loud sound attracted the attention of everyone present.

Just as Kaguya Yuuta was about to get angry, he saw the arrogant old face of his father, the head of the Kaguya clan.

This kind of action is considered the Kaguya family's signature encouraging action.

"Good job! Yuta!"

"Kill that pretty boy!"

Kaguya Ichiro's bold voice was not concealed at all and spread throughout the conference room.

After giving a smile that was uglier than crying, Kaguya Yuuta stood up and walked forward.

Mizunoe Ryosuke looked at his opponent, who had an extremely "fierce" aura, with a gleam in his eyes.

A strong and sturdy body, a ferocious expression, and an oppressive aura!

Kaguya Yuta!

He was once hailed as the number one genius in Kirigakure!

The most ideal opponent in Ryosuke Mizunoe's mind!

In fact, Mizunoe Ryosuke had been quite opposed to this "Jounin Exam" from the very beginning.

Because in Mizunoe Ryosuke's mind, now is definitely not the time to be promoted to a Jonin.

Even if we don't talk about when Mizunoe Ryosuke will be able to defeat Uchiha Madara and be promoted to Jonin, his promotion at this time is a bit too conspicuous.

现在

too dangerous!

However, how can we avoid this danger without offending others?

You know, the third generation helped Mizunoe Ryosuke to the throne with "good intentions", if he was defeated easily.

Firstly, it has ruined the reputation of three generations, and secondly, it has confirmed his reputation as "a hopeless person", and he will inevitably be treated as a soft persimmon in the future.

This also does not conform to Ryosuke Mizunoe's "moderate" approach.

After much thought, there is only one solution, which is to submit an answer sheet that satisfies everyone.

Try to make the game more exciting.

This way, even if you lose, it's reasonable!
