"Mizukage-sama! Bowing deeply! Everyone is waiting for your orders, but why are you bowing to a Konoha Anbu member?"
On the battlefield, countless Mist Shinobi ninjas were shocked, their eyes wide with confusion. This was not the behavior they expected from their Mizukage.
Fourth Mizukage Yagura felt the bewildered gazes of his subordinates. He understood their confusion, but he had to acknowledge the situation. When the thunderous Kirin appeared in the sky, Yagura knew his chances of survival were slim. According to previous information, even Killer Bee, in his full tailed beast form, couldn't withstand this technique. If Kirin struck him, he might not survive.
Life was more important than pride.
With a final clap of thunder, the terrifying lightning in the sky vanished as if it had never existed.

The golden light that fell on the edge of the battlefield quickly flowed into Kazuya's body, bringing significant gains.
This time, the rebellion of the Kaguya clan allowed Kazuya to collect nearly 100,000 Chakra points and a full 30,000 points of Tailed Beast Power. Kazuya's current stats were:
[Tailed Beast Power: Lv4 (47000/100,000)]
[Chakra: Lv5 (277900/1,000,000)]
With 47,000 Tailed Beast Power and 277,900 Chakra points, Kazuya's Chakra level had reached the super Kage-level category, indicating a breakthrough.
Moreover, after acquiring the Sharingan, Byakugan, and Wood Style, Kazuya now possessed two new bloodline limits: Dead Bone Pulse and Lava Style. These useful bloodlines would enhance his immediate combat power and tactics.
Kazuya felt a surge of excitement but kept a calm expression. He walked forward slowly and addressed Yagura, "As expected of the Mizukage of the Mist, Hokage-sama mentioned that Kirigakure's Fourth Mizukage is a leader with great kindness and a broad vision. Today, I understand why."
Fourth Mizukage Yagura, caught off guard by the praise, looked puzzled.
Kazuya continued, "It's all for the village, Mizukage-sama. You don't need to apologize. I should thank you. If you hadn't called for a stop in time, the thunder would have caused unimaginable devastation."
"Mizukage-sama, you embody the true spirit of a village leader, willing to sacrifice everything for the safety of your people."
Yagura, feeling a mix of confusion and flattery, quickly walked up and tightly grasped Kazuya's right hand. "Everything is for the village, Captain Kazuya. You understand me!"
Internally, Kazuya mused, "I know you too well. In a few years, you'll be gone, a short-lived ghost."
With a serious face, Kazuya said, "Yes, today I feel the responsibility of Mizukage-sama. I see a future where the friendship between Konoha and the Mist lasts forever!"
"You're so right! Kazuya-kun, just call me Yagura-senpai!"
"Alright, Senior Yagura."
"Kazuya-kun!"
"For friendship!"
"Yes, for friendship!" Yagura exclaimed with tears in his eyes.
The Mist Shinobi realized that Mizukage-sama had surrendered earlier to protect the village and them. They now saw their leader in a new light, understanding his actions were out of sacrifice, not weakness.
The atmosphere was filled with genuine emotion. Uchiha Shisui was moved, and Itachi, wrapped in bandages, looked at Kazuya with admiration and awe. In this moment, they all saw Kazuya's true leadership.
Fourth Mizukage Yagura seemed easily influenced, taking Kazuya's words to heart. Kazuya saw potential in exploiting this for more benefits.
In the following days, Kirigakure was busy eliminating the remnants of the Kaguya clan. Nearly a thousand members, ninjas and civilians alike, were executed. The air in Kirigakure was thick with the smell of blood.
Fourth Mizukage Yagura, perhaps feeling indebted, arranged for Terumi Mei and other Jōnin to ensure Kazuya's safety. He even frequently discussed life philosophies with Kazuya, who wasn't particularly interested but used the opportunity to gain more power.
They often sparred near the sea, where Yagura showcased various techniques like Coral Palm, Tailed Beast Bomb, and Water Style ninjutsu. In just a few days, Kazuya absorbed over 50,000 Tailed Beast Power from Yagura, breaking through to:
[Tailed Beast Power: Lv5 (0/1,000,000)]
Now, with a level equivalent to a Super Kage, Kazuya's combat power was immense, as he could transform into a tailed beast indefinitely.
Kazuya nodded in satisfaction. The quality of golden light from Yagura was excellent, although Yagura's bloodline limits were mediocre.
During this time, Kazuya and Terumi Mei's relationship improved significantly. They went from being adversaries to good friends. Kazuya sympathized with Terumi Mei, noting the lack of attractive male ninjas in Kirigakure.
While Terumi Mei dreamed of Kazuya, admiring his kindness and strength, Kazuya continued to play his role, understanding that he could manipulate Yagura for further gains.
