After listening to the analysis and suggestions of the Elder Genji, Kaito felt that it was indeed a wise choice to share the information with the Elder Genji.
It is just like the saying goes, an old person in the family is like a treasure.
Elder Genji's thoughts on many aspects are far more comprehensive than Kaito's.
However, looking at Kaito with a frown on his face and a serious expression as he was lost in thought, Elder Genji relaxed and smiled gently.
"Don't think about it for now, you have something more important to do."
Upon hearing this, Kaito looked up at Elder Genji with some doubt, confusion in his eyes, not knowing what the other party meant.
Elder Genji patted Kaito's shoulder with amusement and then said.
"My Fourth Mizukage-sama, the most important thing for you now is to officially succeed the Third Mizukage!"
Kaito was a little stunned at first, then smiled helplessly.
"Well, it is indeed a top priority."
Although there are many things that need to be done, it is still a bit unreasonable not to become a Mizukage.
Next, Kaito and Elder Genji stayed in the capital of the Land of Water for another two days.
One is that they are worried that Uchiha Obito will make a surprise attack, or that someone else will take advantage of the situation to have evil intentions.
Secondly, Kaito and others came to Daimyo Prefecture because they had many things to finalize with the Daimyo.
Kaito would also like to take this opportunity to support the Minister of Finance.
Judging from the results, the effect of their actions is very obvious.
These days, although the Minister of Finance has not officially become the acting daimyo, he has actually taken over most of the previous daimyo's work.
The meeting with the Kirigakure Village represented by Kaito was also entirely handled by Minister Mashiro.
During this period, there were several branches of the former daimyo who wanted to secretly reach cooperation with Kaito.
However, after learning that the two senior ninjas were sent free of charge by the Kirigakure Village to serve as bodyguards to the Minister of Finance, they put those little thoughts in their mind to rest.
After all, the lesson of the previous daimyo is right in front of them.
Compared to the slim chance of gaining fame, one's own life is more important.
He believe that it won't be long before Minister Mashiro will be able to successfully take over the position of acting daimyo, and it may even be possible for him to officially become the daimyo.
This matter is over.
Kaito and Elder Genji then set off back to the Kirigakure Village with peace of mind.
Five days later.
Kaito originally thought that the most important thing that the Elder Genji said was the Mizukage succession ceremony.
Then this matter must be just around the corner.
Who would have thought that the initial preparations for taking up an ordinary 'village chief position' would be so cumbersome.
It would be ok for important things like setting up the venue, entertaining the spectators, and notifying the rest of the ninja world to take time to prepare.
Only when you truly understand Kaito will you know.
Even the Mizukage's exclusive divine robe and hat need to be hand-made in advance by a dedicated person, and no carelessness is allowed.
This also led to the fact that the news that Kaito would take over as the Fourth Mizukage had already spread throughout the ninja world.
However, the actual inauguration ceremony will not officially begin until a month later.
Of course, in terms of actual work, Kaito is already exercising the rights of the Mizukage.
At this time, in the Mizukage's office.
"Fourth Mizukage-sama, you're looking for me?"
Hoshigaki Kisame, wearing an ANBU mask, knelt on one knee in front of the desk and spoke in a respectful tone.
"Um, don't be so polite, just call me Kaito. And I haven't officially taken over yet."
Looking at Hoshigaki Kisame's stern look, Kaito himself felt a little embarrassed.
For those people he's not too familiar with, he can let them call whatever they want, but for good friends like Hoshigaki Kisame, who always call him ‘Fourth Mizukage-sama’' or 'Mizukage-sama'.
Kaito still cannot adapt to it until now.
On the other side, Harusame, who had arrived earlier, was even more at a loss.
He doesn’t know if he should also pay his respects to Kaito.
Fortunately, this was just a small matter. Kaito just laughed it off and got back to the main topic.
"Kisame, I have a letter here. I need you to take a team of ANBU members and deliver it to the leader of Akatsuki in the Land of Rain."
"Harusame-senpai will carry out this mission with you. While on the journey, you should try to fly in the air."
As he spoke, Kaito picked up two scrolls that had been prepared long ago from the table and threw them to Hoshigaki Kisame.
After taking the scroll, Kisame did not choose to look at it immediately, but put it in his arms very carefully.
Seeing this, Kaito continued.
"These two scrolls, one is a letter to the leader of Akatsuki, and the other is a summoning scroll for communicating with ninja beasts."
"This mission is quite dangerous. If the letter is delivered safely, this scroll of ninja beast communication will be handed over to the leader of Akatsuki. If you encounter danger along the way, you can also directly use this ninja beast to ask for help from the village."
Looking at Hoshigaki Kisame who was half-kneeling below, Kaito thought for a moment and added.
"Remember, your own safety is the top priority for this mission. If there is any danger, I allow you to abandon the mission and retreat directly."
Then he looked at Harusame, who had already known about this mission, and said.
"Captain Harusame, please make the trip."
After hearing this, Harusame waved his hands repeatedly.
"Completing the mission is the purpose of a ninja's existence."
In the end, Kaito just nodded, stamped on a task scroll, and handed it to Hoshigaki Kisame.
"It contains detailed mission instructions and intelligence on possible enemies. You can take a closer look at it later."
"Yes!" x2
"Okay, go and arrange for the staff to prepare."
Watching Hoshigaki Kisame and Harusame leave the office, a trace of worry appeared on Kaito's face.
Originally, Kaito wanted to contact Yahiko and Nagato himself.
After all, Nagato's existence is directly related to the entire plan of Black Zetsu and Obito, the masterminds behind the scenes.
It would be fine if White Zetsu didn't notice this trip, but if the information was leaked, they would most likely have to face Uchiha Obito directly.
In the current Kirigakure Village, Kaito doesn't think that anyone except himself has the ability to deal with Uchiha Obito.
However, Kaito's idea was dissuaded by Elder Genji.
According to Elder Genji.
If even a small matter like delivering a letter requires the Kage of a village to do it himself, then what is the point of the other ninjas in the village?
So Kaito finally didn't dwell on this matter any further.
It is better to delegate this matter as a task.
With the abilities of Hoshigaki Kisame and Harusame, and the fact that they can fly the entire way, this is the greatest importance that Kaito can give to this mission.
‘I hope it goes well. I don't know if that stubborn guy Yahiko can come to his senses.’
‘If he can't think straight’
‘I am the only one who can help them kill the so-called demigod!’
