You're Cursing the Mizukage Like That-Won't He Get Angry, Big Brother?

"Lord Hokage, this isn't quite right."

Hyuga Yamazu hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back. The Kaguya Clan and the Hyuga Clan had a good relationship, and he was essentially pushing the Kaguya Clan into a fire pit.

I've heard that the Third Mizukage doesn't have a good relationship with the bloodline families in the village. It would be too savage of me to add fuel to the fire at this time.

"Yes, I understand what you mean."

"However, we need to broaden our perspective. Although doing so will make Kaguya Clan's situation in Kirigakure more difficult, if they embrace the democratic and free Konoha in time, won't all their difficulties be easily resolved?"

"You should know all too well how much the Hyuga Clan has benefited since I took over Konoha."

Hyuga Yamazu Shin nodded in agreement; Uchiha Nan had indeed brought Konoha to unprecedented heights.

The Kaguya Clan would definitely thrive in Konoha than in Kirigakure; temporary hardship in exchange for the Clan Head development is certainly worthwhile.

"Yes, Lord Hokage!"

Hyuga Yamazu no longer objected and prepared to leave Uchiha Nan —no, this was her room.

"Then you should prepare well this afternoon. We'll set off tonight. It'll be more fun to sneak off for a rendezvous at night, right? Mizukage definitely... hahaha."

Hyuga Yamazu's lips twitched slightly. The Lord Hokage was truly humorous.

Uchiha Nan on the shoulder Hyuga Yamazu left Hyuga Yamazu's room, intending to go back to his room for a nap. He had drunk alcohol and taken a bath at noon, so he was quite sleepy.

night

Uchiha Nan and Hyuga Yamazu arrived near the Kirigakure.

"May your journey be smooth. Be sure to express your meaning subtly, and don't be too direct."

"When it really matters, use a manipulative tone to say the opposite of what you mean."

Before leaving, Uchiha Nan was worried and gave Hyuga Yashin some special Hyuga Yamazu.

"Lord Hokage, what is a green tea?"

Hyuga Yamazu confused; he had never heard of the term "green tea" before.

"Um... The term 'green tea' (or 'bad woman') is a bit complicated to explain. Let me give you an example to make it easier to understand."

"Imagine you have a girlfriend, and you've had a fight. Suddenly, a girl with ill intentions appears in your lives, saying these things."

"Don't say that about your brother. He's already tried his best."

"Sister, won't brother be angry if you talk like that?"

"."

"Do you understand?"

Hyuga Yamazu seemed to understand but not quite, nodding blankly. Is this what a "green tea" woman is? Could she really be a bad woman?

She's such a sensible and good younger sister!

Never mind! Since the Lord Hokage has given the order, I'll just do as he says.

Hyuga Yamazu infiltrated Kirigakure's lodgings, deliberately passing near the Mizukage's room. His actions were bold, showing he was certain the Mizukage would discover him. If he couldn't find out, it could only mean Kirigakure was doomed!

"The Hyuga Clan?"

Suitō recognized Hyuga Yamazu immediately by his distinctive Byakugan, but he didn't alert him.

The Hyuga Clan of Konoha arriving at Kirigakure late at night must have something on their mind!

Suitō followed Hyuga Yamazu discreetly, and saw Hyuga Yamazu sneakily approach Kaguya GuYuan's room, look around, and then knock on the door and enter.

The Kaguya Clan and Hyuga Clan clans were on good terms, a fact well-known among the upper echelons of Kirigakure. If the Hyuga Yamazu wished to reminisce with Kaguya GuYuan, they could simply visit her openly during the day.

Coming to Kaguya GuYuan's room so late at night, there must be something sordid going on!

Suitō immediately sensed a conspiracy and quietly approached the door.

"It's really so late, why are you here?"

I wanted to catch up with you!

Hyuga Yamazu conjured up a pot of local sake, as if by magic, which was mellow and had an excellent taste.

Between men, the best way to start a conversation and get closer is naturally through drinking.

Although Kaguya GuYuan was surprised by Hyuga Yamazu's sudden visit, the Kaguya Clan and Hyuga Clan had a good relationship, so he assumed that Hyuga Ichijin had come specifically to drink Hyuga Yamazu reminisce, and didn't take it to heart. He then instructed the innkeeper's waiter to buy some snacks to go with the drinks.

After a few rounds of drinks, the table was littered with peanut shells, and the two men chatted casually, slightly tipsy.

Hyuga Yamazu steered the conversation towards the family's development within the village.

"The Hyuga clan Hyuga tremendous growth in Konoha over the past twenty years, especially after the Third Hokage took office. Their fortunes have truly soared."

"That's amazing?"

"Don't believe me? Do you know how much money the Lord Hokage six months Hyuga Clan? A whopping 1.5 billion!"

"How much? 1.5 billion!"

Kaguya GuYuan's voice suddenly grew louder, and she became much more alert. The Hyuga Clan has really prospered!

That's 1.5 billion!

"This is nothing, just a small amount of money. The Lord Hokage takes special care of the Konoha bloodline clans, always including us in his business dealings. This year, the Hyuga Clan's dividends alone are more than 1.5 billion, and next year they will definitely be even more."

"Only by following the right village and the right shadow can a family prosper and grow!"

Hyuga Yamazu sighed deeply, making a pointed remark.

Kaguya GuYuan looked at Hyuga Yamazu with envy. The Hyuga Clan had really transformed themselves, becoming wealthy landowners. The ninja village system had only been established for about twenty years; had the gap between the Hyuga Clan and Kaguya Clan widened so much already?

The two clans were actually quite similar during the Warring States Period of the Ninja world.

The Hyuga Clan doesn't even consider 1.5 billion ryo a big deal anymore. Small change, small change. I'm so envious.

Looking at the spirited Hyuga Yamazu, he recalled the unfair treatment the Kaguya Clan received in Kirigakure. Not only were their funds withheld, but the funds Kirigakure allocated to the Kaguya Clan this year were Hyuga Yamazu a fraction of the "small change" that Hyuga Yashin mentioned.

Recently, they have also suffered an injustice. A rumor has inexplicably emerged in the village, pointing directly at the Bloodline Clan, saying that the Bloodline Clan is cursed and that wherever a Bloodline Ninja is, death and war will inevitably occur.

What utter nonsense!

Wherever there are ninjas, there is death and war, so why bring up bloodline ninjas?

Nausea!

The bloodline clans of Kirigakure have joined forces to complain to the Mizukage, demanding that the rumors circulating in the village be stopped, as this unhealthy trend has seriously damaged the reputation of their bloodline clans within the village.

Kirigakure clans have shed blood and rendered meritorious service to Kirigakure. If we continue to let rumors spread, even employers who issue missions might not want bloodline ninjas to carry out missions anymore. Those nobles and merchants value their lives very much.

But all they got was a perfunctory response from the Mizukage, who said he would investigate and handle it, but it's been dragged on until now without a resolution, and the rumors have only gotten worse!

It must be that damned Mizukage pulling the strings behind the scenes!

Kaguya GuYuan influence of alcohol, slammed her hand on the table!

"That beastly Mizukage is not human!"

"Fuck your mother."

"It's absolutely *****"

"What right does a mere ordinary ninja have to act so arrogantly in front of a bloodline clan!"

At the dinner table, Kaguya GuYuan, emboldened by alcohol, unleashed a torrent of Suitō on Mizuto.

Hiding outside the door, eavesdropping, Suitō's face was terribly gloomy. No one had ever dared to humiliate him like this since he was born. His fists were clenched tightly, and he wanted to push open the door and teach this ignorant Kaguya GuYuan a lesson.

However, Suitō held back. He had to be patient for now and not act rashly until he understood the Hyuga clansman's intentions.

"Bone Prison, stop cursing!"

"If the Mizukage knew, wouldn't he be angry?"

"The Mizukage has already tried his best, you can't."

Hyuga Yamazu, displaying a manipulative and cunning demeanor, but the Kaguya Clan is known for its straightforwardness, and now that Kaguya GuYuan's anger had been stirred up, Hyuga Yamazu couldn't persuade her at all.

"Seriously, you have no idea what that scoundrel Mizukage did. If you were in his shoes, you'd curse him too!"

"Not only did they cut back on funds originally belonging to the bloodline clans and divert them to those ordinary ninjas, but they also brazenly spread rumors within Kirigakure, slandering us bloodline clans as a calamity that will bring death and war!"

"Right now, everyone in Kirigakure is ostracizing us bloodline ninjas."

"While we bloodline ninjas were charging into battle for Kirigakure, that beast Suitō was probably somewhere peeing and playing in the sand!"

"This is absolutely outrageous!"

Hyuga Yamazu calmly drank his sake, listening to Kaguya GuYuan's complaints.

"Honehara-kun, no matter what, Suitō is the Kage of Kirigakure. It's best not to act behind his back."

"This will only damage your relationship. Of course."

Hyuga Yamazu displayed her cunning nature, seemingly speaking up for the Mizukage but actually adding fuel to the fire, perfectly executing Uchiha Nan's orders.

"Yeah, it's easy for you to say that Hyuga Clan is lucky to have encountered ninjas from bloodline clans who are not only generous but also lavish. Unlike that bastard Suitō, who only knows how to make trouble for us bloodline clans."

"Our bloodline family will not let him get away with this, sooner or later."

Honebara took a swig of his drink and said fiercely.

"Sigh, it seems your bloodline clans aren't very popular in Kirigakure, unlike in Konoha, where the Lord Hokage greatly favors bloodline clans."

Hyuga Yamazu continued along the lines of what Kotori had said. Kaguya GuYuan, seemingly understanding, appeared to know Hyuga Yamazu Yama's purpose for coming and said in a joking tone:

"If the Kaguya Clan ever finds themselves unable to survive in Kirigakure, they might even defect to Konoha. At that time, we'll need the Hyuga Clan's help!"

"If we become rich and powerful, let us not forget each other!"

Hyuga Yamazu pretended to be frightened, waving her hands repeatedly and saying:

"Konbari, you can't just say things like that! Your Mizukage will be heartbroken if he finds out!"

"Mizukage."

Another barrage of manipulative remarks Kaguya GuYuan bewildered. Had they misunderstood Hyuga Yamazu's meaning?

"Hmph, our bloodline clan won't tolerate this dog, Suitō. If this continues, our bloodline clan will turn against him sooner or later. If we fail, the Kaguya Clan might actually have to join forces with your Konoha."

"Our bloodline family will tear Suitō to pieces!"

"."

Kaguya GuYuan had drunk several cups, and now her speech was a bit slurred; she couldn't keep her mouth shut and dared to say anything.

Hyuga Yamazu felt that the time was about right. Just as Kaguya GuYuan were passionately cursing the Mizukage, he secretly activated his Byakugan and saw Suitō hiding outside the door to eavesdrop.

"Who's there? Show yourself!"

Hyuga Yamazu opened the door with lightning speed. Suitō was so engrossed in eavesdropping and in a fit of rage that his mind was in a mess, was caught off guard and had no time to run away.

"Mizukage?"

"Mizukage!"

Kaguya GuYuan was startled by Hyuga Yamazu's exclamation and jumped up from the stool, looking at the door with fear in her eyes. There was only the Mizukage staring at her with a gloomy expression.

How come that scoundrel Suitō has this bad habit of eavesdropping? Did he just arrive, or has he been here all along?

If he stayed here... hiss... even Kaguya GuYuan couldn't guarantee he'd survive the night.

Not long ago, he had given Suitō a thorough dressing-down, hurling all sorts of outrageous and disrespectful insults.

He Mizukage to pieces, instigated a coup within his bloodline clan, and defected from Konoha.

"Hmph, Mizukage?"

"Do you even respect me, a Mizukage? Weren't you just happily cursing me, ready to tear me to pieces? Come on!"

Seeing that he could no longer hide, the Mizukage decided to launch a direct attack. After all, the fault wasn't his; this damned Kaguya clan ninja had uttered many treasonous words.

Even if I killed him right now, it wouldn't be a problem.

If we escalate the situation and pinpoint the bloodline family behind him, we'll have another chance to weaken those damned bloodline families. This time, you've given yourselves the opportunity, so don't blame yourselves for being ruthless.

The Mizukage revealed a gloomy look, staring at Kaguya GuYuan with the gaze of someone looking at a dead man.

"Mizukage, Honebura was a bit drunk earlier and was just joking. Please don't take it to heart."

Hyuga Yamazu symbolically offered a few words of defense for Kaguya GuYuan.

The Mizukage looked at Hyuga Yamazu honest; when Honebura was scolding him earlier, he stood up and defended him.

The bloodline clans of Konoha are much easier to manage. They all know the hardships and helplessness of the Taisho-kage, unlike the bloodline clans in Kirigakure, which are full of traitors and rebels.

"A joke?"

"Bonefield, are you joking?"

"What should we call someone like you? Calling you a beast wouldn't be an exaggeration!"

Kaguya GuYuan's face turned ugly, and she gritted her teeth. "Showing off might feel good for a moment, but it'll lead to disaster later. That bastard Suitō, his insults are really awful."

"Huh? Say something!"

"Are you an animal?!"

"."

Suitō returned the insults Kaguya GuYuan uttered verbatim, and seeing Kaguya GuYuan's dejected appearance, like a punctured balloon, he felt a surge of satisfaction.

Weren't you having a good time yelling just now?

Keep shouting!

"Suitō, don't go too far!"

Kaguya GuYuan clenched her fists, desperately suppressing her anger.

Being humiliated like this in front of his friends felt like his face had been rubbed on the ground; he had lost all face.

"Am I being unreasonable?"

"Do you ninjas from bloodline clans even respect me, the Mizukage?"

"Hmph, your bloodline clans are clearly plotting a rebellion, scheming to seize my position as Mizukage. You're using underhanded tactics and evil power to take my place and then settle for what you can!"

The Mizukage angrily pointed at Kaguya GuYuan and cursed.

Hyuga Yamazu stood by like a lackey, watching this show was truly enjoyable!

I'm choosing a supervisor soon, and I'm so tired I don't want to read any academic papers.
