Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 526: Clearing the relationship
Konoha's reception ninja looked at the Mizukage in astonishment as he walked straight past him, and was completely thrown into chaos.

But Jianchuan Ju doesn't care what other people think.

With a smile on his face, he walked towards the other side of the Hidden Cloud Ninja who was equally at a loss, taking Hoshigaki Kisame with him.

"Hey, what are you looking at? After all, I was invited by your Kumogakure to come here as a witness, why don't you lead the way?"

The Hidden Cloud Ninja who was pointed out by Jianchuan Ju looked at the smiling young Mizukage in front of him and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

In theory, although the request made by Jianchuan Ju was a bit abrupt, it was not excessive and the reason was very legitimate.

But the relationship between the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Mist Village is not that good. Even the current Raikage's broken arm was caused by the Mizukage in front of him.

In addition, the Hidden Cloud Village had not warned him about this matter in advance. How could he, a mere Chunin, dare to take outsiders to his own camp to rest on his own?

Fortunately, at this time, perhaps after receiving the news of Jianchuan Ju's arrival, Tutai from Yunyin in the distance was rushing towards this side with a small group of people.

On the other side, in Konoha, Nara Shikaku arrived almost at the same time.

"Mr. Mizukage!" x2
Perhaps it was because of what happened at the previous Five Kage Summit.

Nara Shikaku and Dodai, who came over now, were both very respectful to Jianchuan Tachibana.

Seeing this, Jianchuan Ju casually waved his hand and asked curiously.

"We are all old acquaintances. It seems that the Hokage and the Raikage have also arrived?"

"In response to Mizukage-sama's question, Hokage-sama arrived yesterday."

Nara Shikaku answered respectfully.

Tutai on the side also said the same thing.

"The Raikage-sama has also arrived."

Upon hearing this, Jianchuan Ju showed a sly smile on his face.

"Since everyone is here, why not start the negotiations sooner? There's no need for an auspicious date for this kind of thing, right?"

The previously agreed negotiation date is tomorrow afternoon.

However, as Jianchuan Ju said, this matter actually requires the two families to sit down and discuss a ceasefire condition that everyone can accept.

Moreover, due to the external pressure from the other three major ninja villages, the final outcome of this ceasefire will basically not change, and it does not seem to matter whether it is a day earlier or later.

However, before Nara Shikaku could say anything, Dodai of Kumogakure immediately showed an embarrassment on his face and tried to persuade him carefully.

"Sir Mizukage, please stop joking. How can you change the date so easily? Besides, the elders who need to participate in the negotiations have not arrived yet. I'd better trouble you to wait for one more day."

Upon hearing this, Jianchuan Ju looked at Tutai who was speaking with a half-smile.

"The elders of your Kumogakure are quite arrogant. Your own Raikage has already arrived in advance, but the elders haven't shown up yet?"

Seeing this, Tutai smiled bitterly but did not explain anything.

In fact, are there any elders who have not arrived yet?
Even Dodai, the chief of staff of Kumogakure, didn't know why his own Raikage had to set the time of the negotiations so strictly. He didn't even know the reason why he invited the Mizukage to the negotiations.

However, when faced with questions from outsiders, he could only try his best to find excuses to evade the questions for his Lord Raikage.

Jianchuan Jue saw this and did not continue to ask questions, but said with a smile.

"Master Tutai, please introduce this elder to me later."

"But since the meeting has not started yet, I would like to trouble you to take me to find a place to rest for the night."

As he spoke, Jianchuan Tachibana turned around and greeted Nara Shikaku.

"Master Nara, please tell Minato about what's happening here. We'll see you later." Then, Jianchuan Tachibana ignored the reactions of others and walked straight towards the direction of the Hidden Cloud Camp.

Although Tutai felt a little embarrassed when he saw this, he quickly chased after him.

On Jianchuan Ju's side, when he saw Tutai following him, he started chatting with him in a random manner.

"I heard that your village's Two-Tails Jinchuriki was seriously injured in the previous battle. I wonder how he is doing now?"

"Thank you for your concern, Mizukage-sama. Yumukuto's condition has stabilized and he was sent back to the village to recuperate a few days ago."

"Really? There is still an organization behind the scenes in the ninja world that is attacking the tailed beasts. I think the Hidden Cloud Village needs to strengthen its precautions in this regard."

"That's true, but he returned with the front-line troops. I think..."

As the distance between them grew, the conversation between them gradually faded.

Only Nara Shikaku remained where he was.

Nara Shikaku looked at Jianchuan Tachibana's receding back thoughtfully, then recalled the previous conversation between them, then frowned slightly and hurried back towards the Konoha camp.

Jianchuan Ju didn't notice anything unusual when he met the Raikage.

I had originally thought of asking Dodai to take me and the secretary Kisame for a walk around the camp.

But who would have thought that the other party would refuse him with an embarrassed look on his face, saying "the camp is simple and there's nothing to see".

Jianchuan Ju thought that he was just here to watch the show, so he didn't bother to argue with the other party. After expressing his dissatisfaction briefly, he went straight to the tent prepared for him to rest.

Looking at Hoshigaki Kisame who was sitting upright next to him, Jianchuan Tachibana felt a little annoyed.

"We should have brought Zabuza along!"

Having gotten used to the convenience of having a sensory ninja around, Jianchuan Ju always has the illusion that he is missing an eye now that Zabuza is no longer around.

His own Sage Mode and Lanzai's malicious perception do have a certain detection effect, but compared to the ability of the Byakugan, there is still a gap.

"It seems that the next time I draw a lottery, I have to consider the ability of perception."

Jianchuan Ju's own talent for perception ninjutsu is not that high. Instead of wasting time on learning perception abilities, it is better to hope for the omnipotent lottery.

Thinking of this, Jianchuan Ju simply opened the system panel and looked for the appropriate perception ability in each prize pool.

"Smell detection? It seems a little off. Eye of the heart? Eye of miracles? I can't see the introduction, and I don't know if it has any perception effect."

Silent all night.

The next day, Jianchuan Tachibana and Hoshigaki Kisame woke up early.

However, the Yunyin side seemed to have made up its mind not to start the negotiations until the time was right, and the negotiations were dragged on until the afternoon, when the two sides officially started.

However, this kind of negotiation is just two parties discussing conditions and compensation behind closed doors. Even with the addition of an outsider like Jianchuan Ju, it doesn't make much difference.

Moreover, Jianchuan Ju noticed that during this negotiation, the Fourth Raikage had changed from his usual impulsive and reckless nature.

They are very fussy about the details of the negotiations.

From the initial high demands to the subsequent arguments, it seemed that every clause had to be carefully discussed with Konoha.

Feeling somewhat bored, Jianchuan Ju simply kept silent and just watched the verbal sparring between the two sides as a bystander.

But what's more interesting is.

Jianchuan Tachibana noticed that Nara Shikaku, who was supposed to serve as a think tank and accompany Namikaze Minato in the negotiations, never showed up during the entire negotiation process.
