The Hidden Mist Blacksmith, forging the glory of the Ninja Sword Style!

However, no one was on guard against Taketori Masami.

After all, Taketori Masamichi is one of the young geniuses in the Taketori clan.

Taketori Masami just came this way.

They probably overheard something.

In this situation, Taketori Masami went to the Water Shadow Building, which made everyone worried.

Once Taketori Masamitsu told the Third Mizukage about what everyone had been discussing in the meeting.

So, how will the Third Mizukage react?

This would be extremely bad for the bamboo-collecting clan.

"Chief, what should we do?"

Taketori En's face darkened.

"Now that Zhenshui has gone to the Water Shadow Building, it's too late for us to stop him."

"We can only hope that there's something else going on with Zhenshui."

"However, we must prepare for the worst!"

A middle-aged man looked at Taketori En.

"Chief, what's the worst-case scenario?"

"Fight or flee!"

Chapter 53 Uchiha Shisui seemed to have lost something.

"Zhenshui, sit down."

The Third Mizukage looked at Taketori Shinsui with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

The Kaguya clan was considered very problematic by the Third Mizukage.

He has a volatile temper, is arrogant, and is extremely selfish.

However, among the many members of the bamboo-collecting clan, there are a few who are quite good.

Bamboo-take True Water is one of them.

It's clear from the Third Mizukage that Taketori Shinsui's capacity for understanding and tolerance is different from that of other Taketori members.

Their vision was not limited to one clan, but extended to the entire village.

If we're talking about who can change the fate of the Kaguya clan in the future, then the Third Mizukage believes it's only Kaguya Shinmizu.

"Mizukage-sama."

Taketori Masamizu sat down, looked at the Third Mizukage, and hesitated to speak.

"Zhenshui, just say what you want to say."

"Lord Mizukage, how should we balance the interests of our clan and the village?"

Bamboo, drawing water, reveals a sorrowful expression.

"I can sense that the gap between the bamboo ploughmen and the village seems to be widening. How can we bring the bamboo ploughmen and the village closer together again?"

The Third Mizukage sighed.

"This is indeed a problem."

"This is a problem that has been brewing for a long time and cannot be solved in a short period of time."

"However, I believe that this problem is not unsolvable, even with real water."

"I just wish there were more and more people like you, Zhenshui."

"The situation within the Kaguya clan is currently complex, and any outside interference will only provoke resentment."

"Therefore, the only one who can change this situation is you, Zhenshui."

"Shinshui, you can interact more with other members of the Bamboo Clan and change their mindset."

"But don't clash with the stubborn ones."

"Slowly, it will eventually influence some people."

"In the future, he may rise to the upper echelons of the Kaguya clan, or even become the future clan leader."

"I'll support you."

"You, Masamichi, will be in charge of the internal affairs of the Kaguya clan."

“I will control the outside of the Kaguya clan.”

The Third Mizukage's attitude made Taketori Masamichi relax a lot.

"Yes, Lord Mizukage, I will do as you say."

The Third Mizukage patted Taketori Masamichi on the shoulder.

"Don't worry too much, Zhenshui, everything will be taken care of."

At this moment, far away on the battlefield in the Land of Fire.

A small figure looked up, a look of confusion in its eyes.

"Shisui, what's wrong?"

asked his companion.

Uchiha Shisui shook his head.

Just now, Uchiha Shisui suddenly felt as if he had lost something.

Not long after Taketori Masamichi left.

A figure entered the Water Shadow Building at an extremely fast speed.

"Mizukage-sama."

"What's the matter?"

The Third Mizukage looked at the Anbu ninja in front of him.

"Lord Qing has woken up."

"Awake? How are you?"

"The surgery went smoothly, there shouldn't be any problems, and the whites of the eyes are blending in very well."

Upon hearing this, the Third Mizukage was overjoyed.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Where is Qing now?

"Still on Forging Island."

"I'll go there now."

The Third Mizukage vanished in a flash, and when he reappeared, he had already left the Mizukage Building. Instead of taking the usual route, he walked directly on the water, using the shortest route to reach the Forging Island.

"Mizukage-sama!"

Uehara Osamu, Pipa Juzo, and Arafune Ni all looked over.

"Ten Treasures, Cultivation."

"Lord Mizukage, Senior Ao is still unable to move and is resting in bed, but he seems to be in good spirits."

"Take me there."

"Yes, Mizukage-sama."

Uehara Osamu led the way.

Arriving at the door of the operating room that had been converted from an empty forging room—no, it was no longer an operating room, but Qing Jingyang's ward—he reached out and knocked on the door.

"Senior Qing, the Mizukage has come to see you."

"Quickly, let Lord Mizukage in."

Qing struggled to get up, but after trying, she couldn't.

The Third Mizukage immediately stepped forward.

"Don't move, don't let the injury get worse."

"Lord Mizukage, thank you."

Ao looked at the Third Mizukage, and the gratitude in his eyes was genuine.

I know the extent of my injuries.

Saving yourself is not an easy thing.

The ones who truly healed themselves were Ringo Mayuko and Uehara Osamu.

However, it was the Third Mizukage who allocated the resources.

Moreover, Qing originally thought that the white eye was no longer on her.

"No need to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank Xiu and Mayuko."

The Third Mizukage paused for a moment.

"Blue, Byakugan, how are you using it?"

"Reporting to Lord Mizukage, it went quite smoothly."

Ao said, "The side effects are fewer than I expected, and I can also freely control the Byakugan's on/off state. It's probably only slightly worse than the Hyuga main family's."

"That's very good."

The Third Mizukage smiled.

"Take good care of yourself. In the future, our Hidden Mist Village will have its own Byakugan."

"On the battlefield in the future, we won't have to suffer heavy losses from Konoha in this regard anymore."
