The Rampaging Mei Terumi

The woman was taken to Kirigakure).

Long Ye now knows that the woman's real name is Xue Ji, and the previous name was just something she made up to cover her tracks.

After deciding to return to the Land of Snow, she reverted to her original name.

With Mizukage Mei Terumi's help, Long Ye was spared a lot of trouble. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, realizing that having more friends is indeed crucial at times.

Early the next morning.

Long Ye got up, someone was standing outside the door.

It was Mei Terumi's bodyguard who was responsible for delivering a letter to him.

"Where is the Mizukage? Why were you sent here? Why didn't you come yourself?"

He had barely uttered the question when he realized he'd made a huge mistake.

The other party is the leader of the Land of Water, whose status is extraordinary. Logically speaking, why would he come to see him in person?

However, Long Ye was already used to their way of getting along, and given his identity as the Mizukage, he didn't think it was anything special, which is why he made a slip of the tongue.

Seeing the messenger's displeased expression, Long Ye quickly said, "Oh, I mean, did the Mizukage leave any message for me? Is this the only letter?"

The messenger said nonchalantly, "There is a message: Lord Mizukage said he has found a boatman for you."

Long Ye nodded slightly. "Mizukage's consideration is indeed thorough. I know nothing about navigation, and I owe her a lot this time. Where is she now? I want to thank her in person."

"No!!"

The Chunin delivered the message refused on the spot.

"The Mizukage is very busy. She has given a strict order that for the next three months, unless it is a matter of life and death for Kirigakure, she will not see anyone."

Long Ye found it strange. "Since that's the case... alright then! I'll thank you in person when I have the chance later."

He took the letter, opened it, and glanced at it.

The list above contains essential supplies and their specific quantities, clearly intended to keep him informed.

When he left Kirigakure, the woman Xue Ji had been waiting for him for a long time.

As the two walked further and further away, Long Ye turned her head to look behind her in the direction of the Mizukage's Office in Kirigakure, but all she could see was a hazy mist, and she did not see the person she wanted to see.

At this moment, in the Mizukage's Office.

A person wearing Water Shadow Hat let out a long sigh.

The sigh seemed to contain a great deal of helplessness, yet the strangest thing was that the voice clearly came from a middle-aged man.

Through a slit in the cloak that covered his entire face, one could vaguely see an eyepatch covering one eye.

Long Ye two boarded the ship.

This is a medium-sized ship; the deck alone can accommodate hundreds of people, and its construction cost must have been considerable.

The boatman had already hoisted the sail, waiting for the two to board and set sail.

The ship slowly started moving, beginning its voyage into the boundless sea.

Long Ye and Xue Ji stood on the deck, their clothes fluttering in the sea breeze.

The woman's expression was complex. Returning to her homeland was her lifelong wish, but at this moment, her feelings were more of a willingness to die for her country.

She wasn't sure if the man beside her could help her kill her enemy, but she had no other choice.

But she had a premonition that if she missed this opportunity, she would never have another chance for revenge in her life.

So even though she risked her life on this journey, she had no regrets whatsoever.

In her heart, she thought she should have died long ago; that she was lucky to be alive was already a stroke of luck, and the worst outcome would simply be to give herself away again.

Sudden!

A sigh came from the side, pulling her back to reality.

She turned to look at the man.

Long Ye muttered to herself:

"Mei Terumi, though somewhat cunning and treacherous, is truly selfless once she decides to help someone..."

He didn't notice that when he said those words, the boatman, who was not far from him, suddenly staggered.

Long Ye was still talking eloquently:

"It's such a pity that such a woman, with a great figure, beautiful appearance, and interesting personality, lived a lonely life without a partner!"

Lost in her own emotions, Long Ye let out a sigh of deep feeling.

His sigh stemmed from his knowledge of the history behind the Shinobi World.

Although history has deviated significantly because of him, apart from Obito and a few others, the fates of others should not have been altered much, hence the almost "conclusive" tone.

The "boatman" was already trembling.

Oblivious to the world around him, Long Ye's thoughts drifted back to that night when the two of them drank wine under the moon in his room, and a strange, indescribable emotion welled up within him.

"That woman... she wouldn't have any designs on me, would she? If so, I'll be in a really difficult position!"

Long Ye frowned slightly and muttered to himself.

The woman beside her, Xue Ji, had a strange look in her eyes on her usually aloof face.

Suddenly! She felt a chill on her back, and a figure enveloped her. She instinctively turned her head and saw a face that was incredibly interesting.

Mei Terumi, dressed as a boatman, had a livid face and formed the Water Dragon Bullet Technique with her hands.

"You pervert, go to hell!!"

Mei Terumi roared in fury.

Long Ye listened to the sea breeze and gazed at the vast ocean, feeling quite relaxed and happy, she was suddenly attacked from behind.

Upon hearing the voice, his expression changed; he instinctively sensed danger and instinctively tried to dodge.

But it was already too late.

He was struck by the water dragon and flew like a pebble into the sea, creating quite a splash.

"Help me! I can't swim!!"

Long Ye emerged from the water and shouted loudly.

He may not be able to swim, but he has plenty of tricks up his sleeve, so he's unlikely to drown. His purpose in doing this was simply to appease Mei Terumi's anger.

If he goes up there like that, this woman will definitely make a scene and he'll suffer a lot. The key point is that he's in the wrong this time, so it's really not appropriate for him to fight back.

Mei Terumi's eyes blazed with fire.

Long Ye's words touched a raw nerve. If the first two sentences were still within her tolerance, the last sentence completely enraged her.

As the Fifth Mizukage, she should have been the only one to choose someone else, given her status and strength. For this person to put her in such a difficult position was something she simply couldn't tolerate.

Seeing that Long Ye was struggling desperately, but his face didn't show the fear one would expect from drowning, she immediately saw through his trick.

With her hands clasped together, a column of water shot out from the sea, lifting Long Ye into the air.

"This woman is indeed kind-hearted!"

Long Ye was secretly delighted, thinking that the other person didn't want to see him drown.

But the next moment, his face turned deathly pale.

Mei Terumi changed her hand seals, and a water sphere the size of a Meteorite fell from the sky...

"You vicious woman! If I got hit, I'd be dead!!"

Long Ye had no choice but to resist, forming hand Hand Seals and Dragon Flame Song.

This was his signature move, but facing this enormous Meteorite water sphere, if he didn't use it, his chances of survival would be slim.
