The sudden change made the six Genin a little nervous. The beautiful scenery on the vast ocean was indeed pleasing to the eye. However, the ever-changing weather made people unprepared. Not only that, the feeling of no one around, or even the vastness of the open space, always made people feel uneasy.

Kakashi's sudden action this time also frightened several Genin. Then Hyuga Hinata used her Byakugan to investigate and finally found the trace of the visitor. On the sea surface that was visible at a glance, the pressure brought by the uninvited guest was much heavier than imagined. The situation of not being able to keep one's feet on the ground always made people feel uneasy, even if the ninja could use chakra to move his feet on the water.

Mizuki and six Genin stopped at the bow and watched from afar as Hatake Kakashi negotiated with the newcomer.

"There aren't many people on the other side, only four." Hinata Hyuga, who was observing the situation with her Byakugan, reported the information. "Except for the leader who has a lot of chakra and may be a jonin, the remaining three are not just ordinary people either, they should be powerful chuunins."

"I see." Mizuki nodded. A jonin is a problem, right? A chuunin is too strong for these genin.

As far as the eye could see, a small black dot that looked like Hatake Kakashi stood in front of the other party and started to negotiate. Gradually, things seemed to be getting bad.

"Um, that's a water dragon bomb, right? Has it started?"

Suddenly the situation took a turn for the worse and Shuimu couldn't help but turn around and ask.

"Yes." Hyuga Hinata observed carefully for a while, and then replied, "It seems that Kakashi-sensei is not at a disadvantage, and the opponent is not besieged. Only the leader took action."

"Should we help?"

They all made a big splash in the Chunin Exams, and later defeated many powerful enemies and completed many high-level missions. At that time, they were very arrogant and actually wanted to interfere in the fights between the jonin. Mizuki found it a bit funny.

"Let's take a look first." The person on the opposite side just came to say hello. Hatake Kakashi is also a celebrity. Looking at his outfit and the fact that he is planning to fight a few moves, he is definitely not an ordinary person and is quite confident in his own strength.

“Friendly communication, no need to make a fuss.”

"friendly?"

The fight was getting more intense, and the power of the ninjutsu could be seen clearly from a distance. If they got too close, they might even sink the passenger ship.

Even from a distance, the aftermath of the battle could be felt clearly. The waves carried a huge force, rocking the passenger ship left and right. The Konoha ninjas were fine, but there were more than just a few people on such a large commercial passenger ship. There were also many ordinary people such as peddlers. Such a huge shaking scared the group of people, and they thought the ship was stranded or encountered a natural disaster. However, for ordinary people, being involved in a battle between jonin is not much different from encountering a natural disaster.

Although the ship was a bit messy, nothing had happened yet, so Mizuki had no intention of asking the Genin to maintain order. If anything happened, it would be better to stay together. If they were left alone, it would be bad if some unfavorable person hid in the crowd and attacked them. Although according to the team's configuration, the possibility of evading detection and sneaking into the enemy was very low, but ninjas could not be judged by common sense. Who knew if there was any blood limit or secret technique that could do this?

…

Kakashi looked at the ninja in front of him with a serious expression. The forehead protector on his head showed that the other party was a ninja from the Hidden Mist Village, and not a traitor. The old-fashioned face, after meeting Kakashi, could not agree on a few words, so he found an excuse to start fighting. Hatake Kakashi understood what he meant and did not intend to avoid the fight.

As time passed, the battle between the two had been going on for a while. The two, who had not tried their best, began to use their powerful water-style ninjutsu after a brief test.

The Mist Ninja on the opposite side was quite strong, but for Kakashi Hatake, who was known as the "Konoha Technician", no one could suppress him by using ninjutsu step by step until his chakra was completely consumed.

In the fight, since it was not a life-and-death fight, the two of them just displayed their strength tacitly. When both of them were almost exhausted, they couldn't help but stop their actions.

"As expected of you, you are the 'Copy Ninja' Hatake Kakashi. I didn't expect that you could resist my water jutsu in this environment. You are indeed worthy of your reputation."

"You are so kind." Hatake Kakashi panted and said, "What is your name, sir?"

The battle just now was quite exhausting for Kakashi Hatake, who was short of chakra. If he hadn't had his companions watching not far away, he would not have dared to fight the Mist Ninja with water jutsu so recklessly.

"Excuse me for asking. My name is Qing. I am a jonin from the Hidden Mist Village, and I am here to welcome guests from Konoha. I am sorry for being rude just now."

"You're welcome, it's just a misunderstanding." Kakashi also said modestly.

Everyone knows whether it is a misunderstanding or not. The Land of Water has been closed off for many years. Outsiders are not familiar with the Land of Water. How much do the Mist Ninja know about the situation outside the Ninja World? What is even more ironic is that many years of high-pressure rule and cruel ninja selection have created a large number of rebellious ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, who have become notorious in the Ninja World. Momochi Zabuza, Hoshigaki Kisame, and Xiguashan Fuguki are all of this kind. On the contrary, no one knows about the orthodox Mist Ninjas.

The "Blood Mist Village" trapped the body of the Mist Ninja, and also restricted the development and intelligence capabilities of the village. It is very necessary to accurately determine one's position in the ninja world. The test just now was just the beginning.

"Aoki jonin, I'm grateful for bothering you all to come all this way."

Knowing that the opponent was also a ninja of a higher level, Kakashi had no intention of neglecting him. This was the first time the two ninja villages had officially met after many years, so it was better to be cautious.

"The Mizukage-sama takes this exchange very seriously. Master Jiraiya has been staying in the Land of Water for several days and has been waiting for a long time. Everyone in this village is waiting for Konoha's official response."

"We came here with sincerity, but we also need the Hidden Mist Village to show your sincerity. After all, you have been isolated from the ninja world for too long."

"So, this is exactly what the two villages are going to discuss this time. If you don't mind, how about we go together?"

"Okay." Hatake Kakashi nodded in agreement. If they went further, they would reach the sphere of influence of the Water Country. If they had someone to lead the way, perhaps there would be a lot less unnecessary trouble and misunderstandings.
