Yugito-san, You Don't Want To...

There is good and bad notoriety.

For example, like now, Makoto can be said to have completed the merger and acquisition of the TV station with almost no effort at all.

Mr. President, who should have resisted to the end, simply wimped out after hearing him say one thing about his intentions.

The other party also refused to take more, as if he was afraid that he would eat people.

Of course, Makoto could understand the other party's feelings.

After all, Makoto really wasn't a good person.

He wasn't afraid of being pointed at by a gun.

The one who had slapped the table with Makoto last time was the Land of Snow...

The first day the representative of the Land of Snow put up a hard word, and the next day the big boss was yanked.

Although in the end the lord of the Land of Snow, Kazehana Sosetsu a turn of the attack, in front of the crowd repeatedly emphasized that everything is his brother Kazehana Doto's conspiracy, is by his own through the secret letter, recruited Konoha ninja army to help fist...

From the intelligence that came in one after another later on, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

But Makoto knew very clearly that this was not a good thing.

This was actually a shikigami preference level super debuff.

Once this thing called prejudice was formed, it could be too difficult to change it.

This was how the Denizens had been cursed for thousands of years.

If there is no accident, it will continue to be scolded... plan this slowly.

Mr. President took really not much, Makoto is not good to continue to force - the other side to hear as the opposite how to do?

So Makoto just in the supplementary terms, for Mr. President to add a number of extremely advantageous special terms, and also ended this negotiation.

After realizing his reputation in this circle, Makoto did not continue to intervene. Instead, he found a very honorable middleman from Araksaka and begged him to handle the matter on his behalf.

This would undoubtedly cost quite a bit of money, but because there was a middleman in the middle, the situation should be much better.

Anyway, what he wanted now was just a heat and momentum.

Since he didn't have the super gimmick of 100 billion dollars to pave the way, he could only increase his efforts in this regard.

After throwing the operation to the professionals, Makoto began to focus on a more important thing - convincing the other four major ninja villages to join together to co-host the event.

The attitude of the smaller hidden villages was actually irrelevant.

Because the prize was high this time.

Even for the last place, there was an S-rank mission, which was a reward of one million ryo.

This was already very generous - because for a normal S-rank mission, the odds were that one would have to touch base with a Shadow-class expert, but in the ring tournament, the contestants could simply choose to abstain.

The number of participants this time would not be small, and if they were lucky, they might even rotate all the way into the one hundred and twenty-eighth place.

The strength of the small hidden village ninjas prevented them from thinking about too many things, and they were already very happy to have picked up an S-rank mission for nothing.

And the words of the Great Hidden Village... they will consider the impact.

If everyone's strength is similar, it would be fine if they might get first place, and everyone would be able to do their own thing.

But Konoha's advantage is so huge now, even if they don't know Konoha's inner workings, they should understand that since Konoha dares to make such a decision, it must have certainty.

If they still agreed to this, it would be equivalent to using their own experts to hold Konoha up.

Who would be willing to do such a stupid thing.

Of the four great hidden villages, only Suna would agree.

With the current relationship between the two sides, no matter what Konoha asked for, the odds were that Suna would agree - he could even ask to marry Pakura.

And it was to make Pakura a junior.

The Kazekage will surely consider it seriously, and the odds are that he will agree to it... Although for Makoto, it really doesn't make much sense to do so...

In the case of Kiri, Obito will definitely continue to give Kiri a whole lot of fun, both out of competence and personal vendetta.

How to be unfavorable to Kiri, he will come.

So as long as...

That being said, the biggest problem right now is to get the Iwa and Kumo to agree.

Earlier in the day, in order to see Onoki, Iwagakure had offered three votes.

These three votes were really not easy to come by, but considering the problem of Iwagakure's bottom line... it wouldn't be unwise to use them up once now.

Then, only Kumo remained.

The Five Kage Summit, once again, was convened.

But for the current Konoha, Kumo, and Kiri, there really wasn't much going on. So they just sat in their respective seats, silently hanging out and waiting for the discussion to end.

On the whole, only Suna and Iwa were having a serious discussion.

They were still talking about what happened last time.

Last time Suna went to the Land of Earth and a few people died, and since it was an operation that had been greeted before and it was a proper mission, Suna wanted an explanation from Iwagakure.

Iwa also did not ink, did send investigators.

Then... all were killed.

Both sides do not think that this is the other side of the conspiracy, after all, the Five Kage Summit here, Konoha must be persuaded to make peace, both sides really want to achieve any goal through this kind of thing, it is simply a joke.

But both sides and indeed both sides have died...

What is happening now is that both sides are exchanging information and discussing with each other.

Nowadays, in this era, there weren't many maniacs who dared to reach out to the two great hidden villages at the same time.

Makoto subconsciously felt that it was Nagato who did it.

In this era where the Six Paths did not come out and the Super Kages had not appeared, only Nagato could directly take on the Great Hidden Village.

But with the pattern of the long door, if you really want to take action, casually kill a few horsemen and what is it... Sasori's words, and it seems to be too arrogant some?

He is not a god and cannot determine everything through the available intelligence.

The good thing is that this matter has nothing to do with Konoha, so let them quarrel first.

Since the beginning, he had been mulling over the matter of the World's First Tornament.

Makoto didn't go to see the Iwagakure's diplomat, that guy looked simple and honest, but he was the most determined person.

After surviving the initial numb claw period, he was becoming more and more difficult to deal with.

It would be highly inappropriate to speak from him.

So Makoto looked to Yugito.

The cat had been doing quite well lately.

No matter what, Kumo was a great hidden village with a strong heritage. In their continued cooperation as well as confrontation with Konoha, they had also slowly recovered a certain amount of vigor.

They certainly hated Konoha, but copying homework was a really cool thing to do. Under the constant pressure of Konoha and the Land of Fire, those ordinary ninja of Kumo who had always been suppressed had finally blossomed a little bit of their own luster.

Don't look down on your enemies.

Especially when they were at the end of their rope.

Of course, it wasn't entirely without bad things.

- With Kumo starting to reform, their days were much better. But the more they reformed, the more pressure they were under... Even world-hoppers like Makoto, who had the support of the Hokage faction as well as the iron vote bank of Konoha, had an unusually hard time reforming, let alone them.

The conflict between the two sides is getting more and more intense, but it is not good to talk to outsiders.

Makoto thought for a moment and wrote a note to Koyuki-hiime, who was sitting next to him reading a comic book, asking her to help deliver it to the Yugito.

As a genuine princess, Kazehana Koyuki was naturally qualified to attend the Five Kage Summit - even after the last time the Land of Snow provoked Konoha, Makoto hadn't initiated a proposal to deny entry to the representatives of the smaller countries.

But Koyuki-hime didn't run here to listen to bored adults discussing matters of state.

She just came to be lazy.

"Ah, is it that pretty blonde big sister?"

"Uh-huh."

"I see!"

Reading too many manga was also really boring. Kazehana Koyuki didn't like that group of wild bees and butterflies, so lately she had been sticking to Godaime Hokage who could stay away from the head maid.

Now that Godaime Hokage had given her a task, the idle and bored little princess not only didn't refuse, but instead lifted up her skirt and carefully ran over.

...What's the use of her being careful, here are all famous ninjas.

However, after many people noticed that she was helping Makoto deliver a letter to Yukito, they all tacitly shut up.

Yugito opened the note that the little princess handed over and found that it only had one small line written on it.

"Yugito-sama, do me a favor."

The cat cocked her head, the corners of her mouth dangling in a small smile as she looked over at Makoto.

The cat was still a very pretty and mature big sister if she didn't open her mouth.

Today, she just tied her long blonde hair in a ponytail, and she was also wearing a simple chiffon shirt and a narrow black skirt. But between her knitted brows and smile, she has a queenly and haughty charm.

There is a reason why... Nibi would pick her, this guy really looks like a big proud cat.

Makoto nudged at the door.

Yugito didn't refuse, and after speaking to the assistant beside him, he directly exited the Five Kage Summit.

Makoto also left the scene to Kakashi, and walked out with Koyuki-hime himself.

The people in the meeting room all noticed the two's small movements, but the meeting room was cold for a few seconds before continuing on its own.

After all, the Five Kage Summit had been held so many times that everyone was already completely familiar with the pattern. The matter being studied right now, and it's not like it has much to do with the two people... The two of them can't be going out on a date, right?

After asking Yugito out, Makoto didn't bother inking, and directly handed her the plans for the World's First Tournament.

"Next I'll be suggesting a World's First Tournament, to be held right here in Konoha, and I'll need your support."

Yugito quickly skimmed through it and re-read it to make sure he hadn't missed anything before sneering at Makoto.

"My support? Wouldn't it be better if you asked Yagura to support you? What's the point of talking to me?"

The cat's face was filled with a gloating smile as she said this.

Of course Yegura would vote in favor, but Yagura's words... The cat didn't know about Yagura having been charged yet.

From cat's point of view, there was no way that Yagura, the bastard, would die without saying yes; what he was best at was lending a hand, and a head-on confrontation was never his first choice.

But at the same time, he would definitely ask for a big piece of meat to be cut off.

With Makoto's style, he would definitely accept this kind of asking price.

Legally, this matter can be passed. But... they can't force the Kumogakure and Iwagakure to compete.

This competition had already clearly stipulated that all participants must participate voluntarily.

Whether or not to go specifically, it would still have to go through the two great hidden villages.

But at that time, and then want to let the two great hidden villages agree, then pay the price can be big...

This cat is getting worse and worse.

But Makoto liked it.

If there wasn't enough external pressure, he really didn't have the means to make those rotten and sluggish big clans in Konoha make changes.

So he clasped his hands over his shoulders and looked at Yugito with a smirk.

"Tell me, what are the conditions?"

Yugito looked Makoto up and down, seriously, several times.

"You fellow, how dare you tell me the weakness directly?"

"You asked for it."

Yugito said so and took off her red fish-mouth high heels, turning her small feet wrapped in black silk up slightly.

"Unless you lick my feet."

That was a clear refusal to cooperate.

However, there was no relationship.

"Huh, why are you suddenly rewarding me?"

Without saying a word, Makoto leaned down and was about to grab Yugito's small feet.

As a result, before he could grab it, the woman jumped back a few meters on one leg like a frightened deer.

It had to be said that the flexibility and strength of the female shinobi of the Naruto world was really strong.

"You... pervert!" Yugito put on her high heels and waited viciously for Makoto, "Does this guy... have no shame!"

Nowadays, several great hidden villages, the legacy of the Warring States is still quite a lot. Makoto forced the female ninjas to wear ladies' formal attire during meetings, and had already received their collective spit. Now...

Anyway, for Yugito, the behavior just now was too exciting.

She, as a traditionalist female shinobi, was a bit too much to handle.

"Integrity and shame? As long as it's something favorable to Konoha, I'll do it."

Makoto replied with a straight face and threw out a contract once again.

Only this time, the body part on the contract was all blank.

"I don't have much time, and don't really want to spend too much time on this. Just name your price for what you want. -

"You know my character. -

"Of course, you can also set the price very high. But then... I would have to cooperate with the others in the Kumogakure. -

"Honestly, I'm very interested in your Kumo's Chakra Cannon."

When she talked to Makoto earlier, Yugito was just a bit shy in addition to being wary.

She usually didn't have much time to kick people with those small white feet, but being licked by other people... Spare her age, a faint blush still surfaced on her face.

But when she heard Makoto say the term Chakra Cannon, her face with a reddish blush became white at once.

"How do you know about it, this thing is clearly... who told you! -

"You have spies in our Kumo hierarchy!"

Chakra Cannon, a heaven-defying artifact that Kumo had only concocted in the very late stages of the Shogun.

This thing can be more powerful and more dominant than the Little David and the Train Cannon.

T/N: 'Little David' is the nickname of an American 36-inch (914 mm) caliber mortar

If used properly, it can directly vaporize the strongest person of the enemy village from a long distance.

Even a direct bombardment of a great hidden village could be extremely effective.

-It can directly destroy meteorite showers and even hit the moon, so what can't it hit.

A contraption with such ghostly power couldn't have been developed in a short period of time - if they had researched it before the Fourth Ninja War, there was no reason not to use it.

Such a Jedi weapon should have been set up in this era at the very least if one were to work backwards in time.

Especially after this era was infinitely accelerated by Makoto.

-Of course, Makoto admitted that he had an element of gambling.

After all, the Butterfly Effect was already like this, it was entirely possible that they had changed the development object.

He had only vaguely heard about it before, and didn't know the actual contents - after all, every hidden village would always have some private R&D.

But now it seemed that he had made the right bet.

Yugito's ugly as hell face was the best way to mark it.

"Is it hard to guess who told me? You should know yourself."

The Chakra Cannon was bound to be the top secret of Kumo right now, and it was unlikely that anyone else would know about it except for those few guys at the highest positions.

And now Makoto, who was Kumo's greatest enemy, already knew about it...

"Hmph!"

Yugito grabbed the guardrail beside him with one hand, and with a slight force from her small hand, she directly crushed it into thin air.

"That group of bugbears... found all kinds of reasons to push back when they exchanged secret passages with Iwa before. Now seeing that they can't stop us, they even told you the information directly... -

"Hmph, so what if you know!"

Yugito turned her head, her gaze extremely cold as she looked at Makoto.

"Anyway, if this goes on, it's still a loss, might as well put up a fight! -

"If you want to fight the Fifth Ninja War now, we'll accompany you!"

It looks like Kumo and Iwa have done a lot of things underneath.

If that was the case, Makoto was relieved - just the existence of the Chakra Cannon alone could make the big clans of Konoha take many steps back.

Makoto never worried about the enemy being overpowered, because Konoha still had him, as well as Naruto and Sasuke.

As long as Naruto and Sasuke was allowed to fully realize their potential, he wouldn't lose.

"No, actually I rejected them."

Those elders of the Conservative Faction, no matter how stupid they were, knew that they couldn't reveal such things to outsiders, but they simply couldn't defend themselves against a crosser like Makoto, and now they couldn't explain it even if they wanted to.

This was just the right time to use the stratagem of disassociation.

"But your current situation... maybe it's better if I agree?"

Threats, outright threats.

Yugito was practically pissed off at those bugbears of the Conservatives.

You guys can even cooperate with Kiri and gain Kiri's support, how can you go to Konoha?

Yagura might even help them against Konoha, what can they gain by going to Konoha?

Just to win?

Helping this bastard Makoto, in the end, not to mention winning or not, whether Kumo can still exist in the end is a question!

Yugito couldn't wait to bite his mouthful of silver teeth, but in the end, he couldn't help but agree.

"Our business, we will handle it ourselves... But, what the Iwa and Kiri think, it has nothing to do with us! -

"If these two villages, don't worry about them, I'll go and talk about them myself."

Yugito squinted at Makoto.

"Are you sure Yagura will agree so easily? It's good that he doesn't bite you twice."

"Then, Yugito-san, how about we make a bet?"

"...Bet on what?"

"Bet on whether or not Yagura will support me unconditionally... The stakes are also simple, if in the end Yagura decides to support me unconditionally, it's my win, then I'll ask you to pick out a suitable dress for my wife - of course, I'm still the one who pays for it! If you win, I'll pick out a suitable dress for my wife. If you win, I won't have any future cooperation with your Conservative side, and we'll start chatting about the convention all over again, how's that sound?"

Given Yugito's impression of Yagura, there was no way he would agree to this for any reason.

This was the perfect opportunity for blackmail.

And even if she lost... wasn't it just helping his woman pick out a dress?

What's so hard about that.

"Okay, I promise you! -

"Godaime, you're going to lose!"

... ...

Uchiha Obito forcibly ignored the Kiri's Elders and unconditionally approved Konoha's proposal to hold the first World's First Tournament.

Of course, in terms of details, he was demanding.

The nineteen year old limit was canceled.

Remove the status restriction, everyone could participate.

In the end, both the high and the low were divided and life and death were decided... But this last one was rejected by Konoha.

Preferring not to organize it, he disagreed.

In the end, Beltu gave up this claim...
