Chapter 221 Meeting with the Daimyo

The capital of the Water Kingdom, the palace of the Daimyo of the Water Kingdom.

The Third Mizukage Bing and Qingsi are meeting the current Daimyo of the Land of Water.

"Third generation, is this the candidate you prefer for the fourth generation?" The Daimyo of the Land of Water gently shook the fan in his hand and said slowly.

"Yes! Lord Daimyo!" Bing maintained a respectful attitude and replied, "This is Otsutsuki Seiji, an elite ninja of Kirigakure, his strength is no less than mine, maybe even stronger than mine!"

The Third Mizukage Bing obviously knew what the Daimyo of the Water Country was interested in, so he came up and mentioned Qingsi's strength.

Upon hearing this, the Daimyo of the Land of Water clearly showed some interest and put away his original nonchalant attitude.

Although he was not a ninja, he knew about the strength of the Third Mizukage Bing. After all, he had served as the guardian ninja of his father, the previous Daimyo of the Land of Water, for a period of time. His strength could be said to be among the best in the entire ninja world.

The man who was nominated as the Fourth Mizukage, Otsutsuki Seiji, was so powerful that Bing actually evaluated him as being even better than him, which aroused a bit of interest from the Daimyo of the Water Country.

The Daimyo of the Land of Water put away the fan in his hand, leaned forward slightly, and put on an attitude of listening attentively.

The Third Mizukage Hime became interested in the Daimyo of the Land of Water, so he continued to introduce, "He is the current captain of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Hidden Mist. Although he is still young, he has perfectly completed many A-level and S-level tasks of the village. He is the current record holder of many tasks in the village. He once defeated the Third Kazekage Tetsusa of the Hidden Sand Village in the Land of Wind on the battlefield of the Land of Rain!"

"Oh?" The Daimyo of the Land of Water's eyes lit up. He didn't expect this person to be so capable. Although he didn't have an accurate concept of the strength of a ninja, he also knew that those who could become the shadow of a village were basically the strongest among the five major ninja villages, not to mention the Third Kazekage Tetsusa, who was hailed as the strongest Kazekage in history, and his reputation spread throughout the entire ninja world!

As for Qingsi's age, he doesn't think it is a big problem. Being young is a good thing, which means there is still room for improvement. Besides, doesn't he have the Third Mizukage Bing to help him?

"Next year, the funding for the Hidden Mist Village can be increased by another 20%!" The Daimyo of the Land of Water was so happy that he gave out tens of millions of taels of silver at once. With such a powerful figure around, it seemed that he didn't need to worry too much about the safety of the Land of Water. Moreover, there would surely be a possibility of getting involved in the continent in the future. The Daimyo of the Land of Water suddenly felt a trace of ambition in his heart, but he suppressed it immediately.

Bing was instantly happy when he heard that there was more funding. He added, "Oh, right! Lord Daimyo! That mission back then was carried out by Qing Si!"

The Daimyo of the Land of Water was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized which mission Bing was talking about, so he looked at Qingsi deeply, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

"That's all! With the joint recommendation of me and the elder Yuanshi, as well as the approval of all the jonin in the village, it is finally confirmed that Otsutsuki Seiji will succeed as the Fourth Mizukage!!!" Bing continued.

"Greetings, Lord Daimyo!" Qingsi stood up and bowed to the Daimyo. Although in his heart he looked down on the Daimyo of the Water Kingdom, who could be regarded as a parasite of the entire Water Kingdom, Qingsi's expression did not show the slightest bit of it. He still maintained an extremely respectful attitude. As for being hypocritical? He was still capable of that.

"I forgot to mention it!" At this time, the Third Mizukage Bing suddenly added, "Qingsi is also the grandson of Elder Yuanshi!"

"I see! Very good!" The Daimyo of the Land of Water was even more satisfied. Now he had no problems at all. Whether it was his background or his strength, he was very satisfied with Qingsi.

So, the Daimyo of the Land of Water nodded and agreed that Seiji would serve as the Fourth Mizukage.

"Thank you for your trust, Daimyo-sama, and your support, Sandaime-sama! I will do my best to contribute to the Hidden Mist Village and the Land of Water!" Qingsi flattered the Daimyo of the Land of Water without meaning anything.

"Very good! I hope that in your hands, the Hidden Mist Village will become stronger and stronger!" The Daimyo of the Water Country responded.

"Yes! Daimyo! It is our duty to restore the glory of the Water Country!!!" Qingsi shouted a slogan. He wanted to fool the Daimyo of the Water Country first. As for whether the Water Country after restoring its glory would still have anything to do with you, the Daimyo, that would be discussed later.

The Daimyo of the Water Country was stunned by Qingsi's slogan. The words "rebuilding the glory of the Water Country" really touched the heart of the Daimyo of the Water Country. You know, the Water Country was very powerful a long time ago, but it has become much weaker now!

The daimyo of all generations have wanted to make the Water Country strong again and get a piece of the rich and fertile land of the Fire Country. However, as parasites of the country, they do not have the ability to do so.

However, to be frank, restoring the glory of the Water Kingdom and making it strong again is only for their own benefit, so that they and their families can have more wealth!

After a moment, the Daimyo of the Land of Water changed the subject and asked tentatively, "Third-generation! What do you think of the ongoing Ninja World War?"

Bing hesitated for a moment and replied. He knew what the Daimyo of the Land of Water wanted to ask, "Daimyo! The Hidden Mist Village is not fit to participate in the war yet! However, looking at the situation in the ninja world, the next war will not be too far away! I think the next war will be the stage for us to show our talents!"

Qingsi, standing aside, felt very disdainful and even a little nauseous. He also understood the thoughts of the Daimyo of the Land of Water!

This Daimyo of the Land of Water really thinks he is a piece of cake. Other Kage may be restricted to a certain extent by the Daimyo because the Daimyo holds the economic lifeline of the ninja village, but Qingji will not. He controls the most profitable intelligence business of the underground gold exchange, and he is fearless!

The Daimyo of the Land of Water was silent for a moment, then smiled again, fully demonstrating the qualities of a qualified politician, "That's great!!!"

Although he did not get the result he wanted most, it seemed that the Water Country had no chance of participating in this Ninja World War. However, he could accept Bing's promise that the Kirigakure would participate in the next Ninja World War. He just had to wait patiently for a few more years.
