Chapter 45 Believe in Your "Strength" Chojuro

The expression on the face of the Hozuki clan leader remained unchanged, and there was a hint of respect in his tone:

"No matter what, I have to thank Lord Kaito and Lord Mizukage for their help. If you need any help from the Hozuki clan in the future, just let me know."

Mei Terumi smiled gently. She could guess the general idea of ​​the chief of the Hozuki clan just by thinking about it.

Mei : "Come to think of it, there is something that requires the help of the Hozuki Clan."

Terumi Mei showed a charming smile on her face and said to the leader of the Hozuki clan.

The leader of the Hozuki clan was stunned, but his expression remained unchanged. He glanced at the three ninja swords on the table, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

Mei : "The village is planning to reorganize the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist Ninja. After much thought, I think it would be a good idea for the Hozuki clan to preside over this matter."

Mei : "After all, there are members of the Hozui clan among the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist Ninja in all previous generations. And regarding the research on these seven swords, I think no one in the village knows more about it than you."

Mei Terumi looked at the leader of the Hozuki clan and spoke softly.

After saying that, Mei Terumi clapped her hands gently without even looking at the reaction of the Hozuki clan leader.

Whoosh!

A black shadow appeared next to Mei Terumi the next moment.

"Call that guy Chojuro over here." Mei Terumi said calmly.

The black shadow nodded slightly and disappeared the next moment.

The Hozuki Chief lowered his eyes slightly, pretending not to see the black shadow. Just now, Mei Terumi seemed to be discussing something with him, but in fact, it was just a notification.

However, this matter does not do any harm to the Hozuki clan. Instead, it brings some hidden benefits to the Hozuki clan. After thinking for a while, the Hozuki Clan Leader came to a conclusion. 

Suigetsu, who was standing aside, kept rolling his eyes. Standing next to the two, he said that he was under a lot of pressure.

The man who brought him here seemed to be of quite extraordinary status. Even the clan leader called him Lord Kaito, and he seemed to be the elder of the village.

He hadn't been back for a few years, but the entire Mist Village had changed so much, even the elders had changed… However, the name Kaito felt somewhat familiar to Suigetsu, but suddenly he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

The first Mizukage also seemed to be called Kaito!

Suddenly, remembering the stories he had heard as a child, Suigets's eyes widened.

"Eh!!!"

Suigetsu couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, but the next moment he realized something and quickly covered his mouth with his hands.

Unfortunately, it was too late. The originally quiet office suddenly heard this exclamation, which was hard to ignore.

Two pairs of eyes stared at him, causing cold sweat to break out on Suigetsu's forehead.

Mei Terumi raised her eyebrows and looked at the flustered Suigetsu with a hint of interest in her eyes.

Mei Terumi seemed to see another figure, a genius named Hozuki Mangetsu.

A genius known as the "prodigy loved by ninja swords", who can skillfully use seven ninja swords.

Unfortunately, the ninja world has never lacked geniuses, and the dead geniuses cannot be considered geniuses.

The leader of the Hozuki tribe glanced at Suigetsu and said in a light tone: "You will go back to the tribe later. I have a lot of things to talk to you about."

Hearing the words of the Hozuki leader, Suigetsu swallowed hard, with a sad look on his face.

Knock! Knock!

Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and Chojuro walked in with a puzzled look in his eyes.

When he saw the chief of the Hozuki clan and Hozuki Suigetsu in the room, Chojuro was slightly stunned, and the confusion in his eyes became even more intense.

"Mizukage-sama," Chojuro said respectfully as he walked over to the desk.

Mei Terumi also nodded and spoke to Chojuro with a chuckle.

Mei : "Since you are finally here, then I will tell you in detail about the plan of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist Ninja."

Mei : "After all, these people are your future teammates. I'll leave it to you to judge their strength."

"Can I?" Chojuro asked softly with a worried look on his face.

Mei : "No matter what, you are considered a veteran of the Seven Swords. You should be confident in your strength. Those who can gain your recognition must be of comparable strength."

Mei Terumi looked at Chojuro with a relaxed look on her face.

With the approval of the Mizukage-sama, the worry on Chojuro's face slowly disappeared.

"Mr. Mizukage, regarding the number of ninja swords..."

The leader of the GHozuki spoke softly at this time, but before he could finish his words, the voice of Mei Terumi was heard.

Mei : "Regarding the issue of the ninja sword, don't worry, Chief Hozuki. I have received news from Ameriyu RIngo and the others in advance. They should be back during this period of time."

Mei : "Including the Thunder Fang in their hands, there are now five Thunder Fangs in the entire Mist Village. With this number, I think it should be no problem to reform the Seven Swordsmen, right?"

Mei Terumi put one hand on her chin, looked at the leader of the Hozuki clan and spoke calmly.

The head of the Hozuki clan looked serious, and said quickly: "Of course there is no problem, Lady Mizukage."

Mei ; "That's good. I'll leave the rest of the details to you. By the way, Chojuro, please stay for a while."

Mei Terumi glanced at the leader of the Hozuki clan, then said to Chojuro.

After hearing what Mei Terumi said, the chief of the Hozuki clan naturally knew that this was the beginning of the time he needed to leave.

A trace of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the head of the Hozuki clan. He bowed slightly to Terumi Mei, turned to the Hozuki Suigetsu standing beside him and said, "Let's go!"

Suigetsu trembled all over, as if he was defeated, with his head hung, following behind the Hozuki leader.

.

The residence of the Kaguya Clan.

It was not as dilapidated as imagined, because there was not even a building left and the entire base was completely overgrown with weeds.

But come to think of it, after so many years, everything must have been cleaned up.

Kaito : "I thought there was something in this place, but now it seems there is nothing."

Kaito looked around and spoke helplessly.

Kimimaro stood there quietly. After a while, he suddenly looked up at Kaito and said, "Master Kaito, thank you!"

"Oh, you know who I am?" There was a hint of surprise in KAito's eyes, and from Kimimaro's tone he seemed to know who he was.

Kimimaro nodded, "Lord Orochimaru told me about you."

There was a flash of realization in Kaito's eyes. It seemed that after Orochimaru resurrected him, he had already thought that he would go find him.

Kimimaro : "Master Kaito, my body is almost at its limit. I am afraid I cannot be of any help to you, Master Kaito."

Kimimaro spoke in a low voice with a sad look in his eyes.

Kaito : "Who said you were dying? Just because others couldn't save you doesn't mean I can't."

Kaito raised the corner of his mouth slightly and spoke with confidence.

Kaito : "But before I save you, I have to remove the curse seal that Orochimaru left on you. This thing is too corrosive to the body."

Kaito spoke calmly, and then reached out and pressed on the place where Kimimaro's curse seal was placed.

A cold, evil chakra suddenly emanated from Kimimaro's body. But the next moment, this chakra was quickly absorbed by Youdou at an extremely fast speed.
