Chapter 32: Chapter 598: Terumi Mei—
"R-Rifan, is what you said is true, you are not joking right?"
After recovering, Terumi Mei asked Rifan in surprise.
"Of course it's true." Rifan smiled and grabbed it casually.
Originally, because Terumi Mei was too surprised, the disciple token that slipped from her hand flew into Rifan's hand.
"Remember this?"
Rifan put the disciple token in front of Terumi Mei with a smile on his face.
"The sign made of unknown material that I picked up at Kirigakure?" Terumi Mei blinked, then looked at Rifan as if she understood. "Rifan, is this thing yours?"
"It's really mine." Rifan nodded, "Presumably, you ninjas in Kirigakure are very curious about why Pakura is still alive after being assassinated by your ninjas."
"Could it have something to do with this sign?!" Terumi Mei exclaimed.
Rifan smiled and put his hand on Terumi Mei's shoulder.
The next moment, with the power of space movements, the bodies of Rifan and Terumi Mei disappeared instantly.
When they appeared for a time, they had already come to the interior of the manor.
"This is... space ninjutsu?!"
"It's not ninjutsu, it's just teleportation using the power of space." Rifan shook his head, raised his finger and pointed to the wall in front of him.
Terumi Mei looked in the direction of Rifan's finger.
There, there is a sign that is very similar to the one that Terumi Mei picked up in Kirigakure.
However, in the center of the sign on the wall, the word "Pakura" was clearly written.
"Rifan, could it be said that Pakura picked up this sign before she died, and was then transported to this manor by you!?"
"Afterwards, you used some kind of ability to heal her, and finally accepted her as a disciple?"
"Wait... Rifan, does that mean that if you pick up this sign, you can become your disciple?!"
As a woman who can become the Fifth Mizukage in the future, Terumi Mei's wisdom is definitely not low.
Thinking of her and Pakura's situation, she quickly analyzed the role of the disciple token.
"This is only one of the conditions. Also this is not a sign but a token, disciple token to be exact." Rifan picked up Terumi Mei's hand and put the disciple token into her hand. "The second is to get my approval."
"So, I got my approval from you Rifan? Can you tell me how I got your approval?"
"I think you are pleasing to the eye, this reason should be enough. So now you can decide, Terumi Mei, if you don't agree, I will send you back, and as for the disciple token, I will randomly throw it to another place in the ninja world."
"No, I am willing to be your disciple, Rifan, please don't send me back!"
Hearing Rifan's words, Terumi Mei nervously took Rifan's hand.
Just kidding, how could Terumi Mei give up the opportunity to become Rifan's disciple when she finally encountered a chance to resolve the crisis in Kirigakure?
"Since it's decided, drop your blood on the disciple token, and you will be my second disciple in the ninja world from now on. And you can call me Teacher."
"After becoming my official disciple, the disciples need to live in harmony, so you don't have to worry about what Pakura will do to your Village."
"Of course, the premise is that those who participated in the assassination of Pakura are given the punishment they deserve."
"It's not good if the ninjas who execute the order just live like nothing happened."
Saying that, Rifan patted Terumi Mei's shoulder meaningfully.
Ninjas are just tools to perform tasks.
The one who really pays the price is the one who gives the order.
If the person who gave the order didn't die, even if Pakura didn't say it, Rifan, a teacher, would definitely not let them go.
"Uh, that, Rifan."
"Actually, Lord Fourth Mizukage, who gave the order, has passed away."
Terumi Mei whispered.
"So coincidental?" Rifan's eyes glowed, staring at Terumi Mei.
"Really, I didn't lie to you, Rifan."
"Is that so? Then I believe you."
Rifan nodded.
From his perspective, Terumi Mei had no way of fooling him.
At this time, Rifan could only sigh that the timing of Fourth Mizukage's death was too good.
Otherwise, with the attitude of Pakura treating Fourth Kazekage, Fourth Mizukage will definitely suffer.
The pupil technique Tsukuyomi performed by the Rinne Sharingan is not so easy to receive.
Soon, after dripping blood on the token according to Rifan's instructions, Terumi Mei's name and information also appeared on the disciple token.
[Name: Terumi Mei]
[Age: 20 years old]
[Origin: Kirigakure]
"Rifan...Teacher." Terumi Mei landed on her knees and gave Rifan a standard salute.
Rifan didn't stop it either, he knew that in this world, there are many people who follow this set of etiquette.
"Ah, very good."
"Then let's go straight to your special training, Mei. I'll call you Mei from now on."
"Yes…"
