They hadn't really expected to get more information from Qi.
At most, it's just supplementing some details known only to the parties involved.
As for what else to look forward to, it's that Minazuki Shun wonders if that Genji will contact their Yuki Clan through Qi. If that's the case, the Yuki Clan wouldn't mind following in Genji's footsteps!
On that special night, Shun already regretted letting his clan express their opinion too early. Now it seems that the Mizukage wasn't so reliable. At least at that moment, the way he wanted to seize the rights of their ninja clan really disgusted Shun, even though it was in line with the style of the Mizukage throughout history.
But Shun still regretted it.
There's no going back now. The only option is to find the right moment to bring the village's leadership into a delicate balance. The Yuki Clan is a somewhat old-fashioned ninja clan, partly because, in terms of sheer strength, they are indeed slightly inferior to the Kaguya and Hozuki Clan clans (they have never produced a ninja comparable to the Five Kage ).
Therefore, all those who have held power in the Minazuki Clan throughout history, including the current Minazuki Shun, have maintained a very balanced mindset. They do not desire more; they simply want to maintain the existing status quo.
Therefore, the Genji's attitude is of paramount importance!
it is a pity!
Things didn't go as the Yuki Clan had predicted. It seemed that Genji wasn't really interested in the reboot, and the composition of Team 7 seemed to be a result of random decisions.
This made Minazuki Shun feel a little disappointed for no reason.
"Yes, Chieftain. Then, I will excuse myself from my rudeness!"
Qi also stood up properly, bowed to Shun in the main seat and the other three elders, slowly followed them for two steps, and then turned around and strode away.
Watching Qi's departing figure.
"Clan leader, it seems the situation is not much different from what we predicted. This should be the Mizukage's way of taking this opportunity to further consolidate his power in the village, Genji seems to be tacitly approving of it!"
On the right, Minazuki Kazuya spoke with a solemn expression.
From the beginning of his reign until the end of last year Karatachi Yagura maintained a harmless appearance, leading the three major ninja clans and other powerful groups to believe that the Mizukage they had chosen was a supreme leader with whom they could get along!
But they were wrong!
Starting from the beginning of this year.
This Mizukage was repeatedly testing them, constantly making adjustments to personnel arrangements, in order to gradually squeeze the power space of the three major ninja clans.
As of now, Karatachi Yagura has reassigned some key positions from the three major ninja clans within the village!
Unlike their previous 'peaceful coexistence,' this Mizukage has now revealed his true colors, holding a clear advantage in both offense and defense!
This made the three powerful ninja clans very uncomfortable, so they tried every means to turn the tables, but they couldn't take any extreme measures. After all, he was the Mizukage, and in principle, all affairs in the village were under Mizukage jurisdiction. No matter what he did, as long as it didn't harm the interests of the village, he was in charge.
That's right, that's how it should be!
They have the moral high ground and the final say on all their actions!
Therefore, the three great ninja clans cannot act recklessly; they must wait for the right opportunity!
Reputation is still very important.
This incident presented a very clever opportunity.
At least that's how the Hozuki Clan and Kaguya Clan see it. Only the Yuki Clan doesn't think so. Regardless of anything else, the most fundamental reason is that the Yuki Clan's leaders throughout history have always prioritized stability.
Or rather, being conservative is perfectly fine.
Without a 70-80% certainty, it would be very difficult for the Yuki Clan's higher-ups, led by Minazuki Shun, to make a decision on such a major matter!
"Accepting the situation as it is is a very difficult attitude to judge, and this time the initiative has clearly fallen into the hands of the Mizukage. It seems that it will be very difficult for us to change the Mizukage's decision, unless..."
Minazuki Eiichiro shook his head, then stopped speaking as if he had remembered something.
The words were not finished.
But everyone present could understand the deeper meaning behind it.
"That's true, but we absolutely cannot remain completely silent; neutrality is even more unacceptable!"
Sogen paused, then spoke with a serious expression.
"While we can't claim to be on equal footing with the Kaguya and Hozuki Clan clans, we still need to reach a certain level of understanding on some key issues. Clan leader, I think you should have a thorough discussion with Ritsu- kun of the Hozuki Clan to understand their intentions. This way, we can make better decisions! If necessary, we can lean slightly in their favor, but we shouldn't be at the forefront. We just need to show our stance, but not be overly forceful!"
"Hmm, that makes sense!"
I think it's a good idea!
On either side, Elders Kazuya and Ichiro nodded in agreement after a moment's thought.
The attitude was expressed, but not explicitly.
If you have to put it bluntly, this is a lack of courage, but it has been a common practice for the Yuki Clan since they joined Kirigakure decades ago, or to put it more bluntly, it's a mindset stemming from a lack of strength.
"Yes, I understand. I'll visit Ritsu- kun tonight. We really need to finalize the plan!"
Minazuki Shun slowly nodded and said.
To fight or to make peace.
Or should we make other choices?
For a great ninja village, the most taboo thing is to be indecisive and half-hearted!
Although these three powerful ninja clans wanted to seize some of the village's leadership and gain more power and benefits.
But he had no real intention of stirring up internal strife or even overthrowing the Mizukage.
Um!
At the very least, the Yuki Clan certainly doesn't have that idea, but as for the Kaguya Clan and Hozuki Clan, it's a bit hard to say.
This is also what Minazuki Shun will do next: figure out what the two clans, especially the Hozuki Clan, who can be called the 'protagonist' for the time being, are thinking!
The most crucial question is whether the Yuki Clan should align themselves with the Hozuki Clan. They can't just foolishly follow suit if the other Yuki Clan wants to change the Mizukage, can they?
You've lost your mind, you wouldn't do something like that.
Unless Genji is willing to take the lead, the Yuki Clan will not seriously consider it.
