Establishment of Land of Ninjas

Makoto knew very well that trying to convince the Lord of the Land of Birds would be a very difficult task.

-Since he dared to go against the wishes of the Land of Water's Daimyo, he must be incredibly worried about the future. In the face of the war that would inevitably affect the world nine years later, there were some things that could not be cared for.

No matter how angry the Daimyo was, for the time being he could only put small shoes on the Land of Birds, and in any case, he absolutely could not bring Land of Birds to its demise.

But the war nine years later can...

That's the difference between noble things and capitalists.

They were a bit more life-thirsty after all, and the rope to hang themselves was something they would never sell.

The rouge ninjas have been seated in the temple, and how the other side's thoughts are can be imagined.

The intention of Kiri s coming, he also understands in his heart.

So... at first, he absolutely can't talk to him about canceling the formation of the hidden village.

So Makoto unfolded his folding fan, and while handing over the documents to the bigwigs as well as the country's lord, he began to flutter.

Just like when Kong Ming persuaded Emperor Zhaolie with Longzhong.

T/N: Emperor Zhalie, also known as Liu Bei, was a Chinese warlord in the late Eastern Han dynasty who later became the founding emperor of Shu Han

Only Kong Ming and Emperor Zhaolie is considered a strong combination, while Makoto's words...

"Before the turbulent times, all the countries are afraid. Only the Land of Birds of all of you to fight forward, only to protect the Land of Birds of the always safe and sound, this is the work of all of you."

Wear it a thousand times, but flattery never wears it. Although according to Makoto's field test, these guys on the temple, basically no one can get out of the noble object this level, but this sentence does let the atmosphere ease some.

Thus, Makoto began to direct personal attacks.

He looked towards a rouge ninja with glazed eyes, a face full of horizontal meat, temples high and bulging, a reckless man at first glance - ninjas had a bad reputation, and in addition to doing too many rotten things, having an odd shape was also a very important reason.

Before and after so many Kiri's seven swordsmen, only Zabuza and Raiga look like people. Everyone else didn't need makeup for their Halloween COS...

"This sir, may I ask you a question?"

At this time, the relationship between Kiri and the wandering ninjas was very delicate, and the wandering ninjas understood in their hearts that if they wanted to find a peaceful little nest, they would definitely have to offend Kiri.

But now just directly ignore the words of Kiri...

After all, Kiri is also one of the five great hidden villages.

So this strong man looked at his chief.

Only after receiving the chief's acquiescence did he then continue to speak.

"...Please ask."

"May I ask if you know how much a duck egg costs in the Land of Birds?"

"That..."

The burly man certainly didn't know.

For one thing, he wasn't in charge of logistics, and for another, they were rouge ninjas who rarely bought anything properly.

They themselves were not ninjas from the Land of Birds, and the time they had come here was not too long, so they naturally did not know much about this kind of livelihood issue.

"About... fifteen ryos?"

"No, it's thirty ryos."

When he had talked to that old fisherman earlier, Makoto had already mapped out the general prices of the Land of Birds - although he had long since obtained a chart of the approximate price data of the Land of Birds.

As an agricultural country, it was logical that things like chickens and ducks would not be scarce. However, the average selling price of chicken and duck eggs in Land of Birds was higher than that of Fire Country, and the reason for that, besides logistical restrictions, was of course...

But Makoto wasn't trying to blame the precious things now.

That was pointless.

It was time to solve Kiri's problems, not to argue.

"Fifteen ryos, thirty ryos, what's the difference? What exactly are you trying to say? Aren't you a ninja of Kiri, what kind of business can you do with us? -

"If you don't want to talk, go back to your masters in the Land of Water!"

Another rouge ninja spoke up, and although he was helping out his friend, from Makoto's point of view, his words also made the nobles even more curious about what Makoto wanted to say.

With curiosity aroused, then the business was half done.

How do you sell a pen to someone who doesn't need a pen per se - for example, to get an autograph?

"Ah, well, it's my fault... but what if I say that I have a way to make the price of duck eggs, a little lower... to a price that everyone likes? -

"How can it be! The duck's egg-laying limit is there, no matter what means are used..."

"That's because, you guys didn't use the newly developed Black Feather Duck from the Agricultural Association." Makoto used a folding fan to continuously slap his palm, "The newly researched Black Feathered Duck by the Agricultural Association only needs 24 days to be ready for slaughter, and its fertility is twice that of an ordinary duck... I wonder if you all, have any interest in it? -

"The Agricultural Association is looking for strong partners everywhere."

There is a playbook for industrialized nations, and there is a playbook for agricultural nations.

Small countries had the disadvantages of being small, but it was precisely because they were small that the nobles present were slightly closer to the bottom.

At the very least, they still valued agriculture and its affiliated industries.

As soon as he heard such a horrible production capacity of this black feathered duck, an official who was obviously a financial mouthpiece couldn't help but open his mouth.

"Is there really... such a powerful duck?"

"This is natural, on my documents, it's all explained."

Makoto certainly did not lie.

Because this so-called Black Feathered Duck was not an ordinary duck at all, but a new species created after the combination of a ninja beast and an ordinary duck.

The ninja beasts in the world of Naruto also have high IQs, and their physical strength cannot be compared to humans - such as a certain Ten Thousand Snakes who were attacked by Sasuke's defense.

In this case, if the ninja beasts and ordinary beasts are allowed to crossbreed... lack of virtue is quite lack of virtue, but the effect is really good.

T/N: above, the floor is made out of floor, and I didn't translate it wrong

For a long time, Makoto had been trying to get the people of Konoha a little more meat, eggs, and milk. To that end, he made a PY deal with Yagura, and later on, he even punched through Land of Rice.

But these things were foreign, after all, and Makoto needed some localized livestock more than anything else for insurance reasons.

So he found some single ninja beasts that had no partner, and then used genjutsu on them...

After the genjutsu plus some necessary lab research, the Black Feathered Duck was born.

But with Konoha's research in agriculture as well as its strength, wanting to expand this species is still a struggle... So it's not like there's the Agricultural Association to help out.

Land of Birds' unique lake environment is indeed very suitable for breeding ducks.

It was simply a perfect plan.

The single ninja beasts experienced the joy of countless harems in their hallucinations, the Agricultural Association expanded its influence, the Land of Birds had a new outstanding project, and Makoto increased the meat, eggs, and milk in Konoha... It was truly a welcome sight.

No one was hurt except for Makoto, who has since been strictly banned from entering any of the Konoha ranches by Sandaime and Jiraiya, and the toads of Mount Myoboku, who see him and want to run away with weak legs and stomachs.

-Toads what are you running for, I don't like eating snow clams.

Hearing Makoto say that, the Nobles looked even more seriously.

Reducing the price is certainly not a good thing, but since the price can come down and the production has gone up, that means that these new varieties of duck eggs can go out of the Land of Birds and go to fight a price war with other small countries...

Consumers these days are basically price-oriented, no matter the eggs and duck eggs, as long as the price is cheap and there's nothing wrong with them, they'll buy them.

"Well... it does look like a good duck breed... That Godaime Hokage, does he do something good once in a while?"

Farmers sell more, the nobles can naturally collect more taxes, and now that Makoto has proposed such a program, the looks of all the nobles present naturally become more and more relaxed.

"But... then again, that what agricultural association, really..."

"Naturally it's true, if you don't believe me, you all can always find someone to go ahead and approach. I think that no one should dare to deceive you all."

This is comfortable to listen to, that financial mouth of the official also stopped talking.

The crowd began to look over the documents Makoto gave them more and more carefully.

Then they realized that the documents Makoto had given them were more than just ducks.

To be precise, on it, apart from agriculture, there were also diplomacy, justice, transportation, science and technology, industry, finance, civil affairs, public security, agriculture, water conservancy, education, medical care, minerals - what the crowd was looking at, surprisingly, was only a summary, and what was really there, wasn't even fully shown!

This is not a trade contract, it is simply a strategy for governing the country.

As for why there was only a summary in front of the crowd...

It wasn't that Makoto couldn't write it, in fact the full text was in his scroll. The reason for this is that he really understands the habits of the nobles too well.

This group of guys, really will be too long not to read, whoever has more words will listen to whoever... Since this is the case, it is fine to let them know a general idea.

The real full book still had to be read by the Lord of the Land of Birds.

Quickly, an official who could obviously speed read looked up.

"Messengers of Kiri, aren't you guys too arrogant! Doing business is fine, but will you still rule a country?"

"Whether or not I can, does not depend on me, but on all of you. Only if you all want to test my level... then, come and try to argue me down!"

"Big talk! Come on then!"

When it came to ruling the country, the Nobles really weren't very good at it. But when it came to being shifty as well as smashing people with grand theories, they asked themselves that they were still the best of the best.

Now that Makoto was so arrogant, naturally, a few people stood out and started a wheel-to-wheel battle with him regarding the contents of Makoto's documents.

If it was those top civil servants of modern countries who had been heavily selected, Makoto really wasn't sure of winning. But in front of these guys who mostly rely on the so-called bloodline to come up? ...They are not ninjas, and there is no chakra, their bloodline has no power at all!

Thus, a big melee that lasted for two days and two nights began.

To be precise, it is Makoto alone car opposite all, and has been completely numb Kisame and Terumi Mei is the whole hanging.

It's not that they don't want to help, it's really that they realized that they can't intervene at all.

Before Makoto also said let Terumi Mei do not open his mouth, Terumi Mei originally thought it was the other party's cautious move, now it seems...

All in all, the situation at the scene was very tragic.

On one side was the ultimate unlucky person who had been bombarded by modern information, who had managed to get into the civil service but wore it out, and who had tossed around the world for nearly two years.

And on the other side was a group of noble things that relied on bloodlines to rise to power...

This was simply not a battle, but a massacre.

Makoto wouldn't hold their stinking feet, much less give them face. With the extremely vicious mouth and rich theoretical knowledge honed during the involution era, during these two days and nights, every nobleman who faced Makoto was basically taken down by taking a rasengan.

For a time, scholar swept the floor, and everyone regarded him as a mortal enemy.

However, the Lord of the Land of Birds, never called it quits.

Makoto knew that he had made the right bet.

The Lord of Land of Birds behavior of establishing a hidden village could really be said to be a taboo. A more timid small country lord would not dare to defy the Land of Water Daimyo at all.

But he still made a move.

But judging from the situation in the court, he wasn't the kind of person who was bold - like the one from the Land of Tea, who had directly raised his troops and fought with his own nobles.

...If it wasn't for Shisui who happened to pass by, hell knows how he would have ended it.

But no matter what, the one from the Land of Tea won in the end.

Obviously with such a big positive example in front of him, the lord of Land of Birds didn't follow suit. In addition to the fact that he is indeed older and more conservative in character, Makoto guessed that this guy still had a fluke in his heart...

Everyone despises Yuan Shao, but everyone is Yuan Shao.

T/N: Yuan Shao was a Chinese military general, politician, and warlord who lived in the late Eastern Han dynasty

Everyone is a decent person with money and power, not barefoot, some determination is really difficult to make.

If possible... it is better to have a compromise...

Makoto guessed the other side of the mind, so there is the game at hand.

After two days and two nights long great debate, Makoto completely car through all the precious things.

Makoto was able to copy his homework, and looked at the Land of Fire's data reports every day, and every sentence was accompanied by data, so the Nobles really weren't his match.

The same two days and two nights without rest, the Lord of the Land of Birds, finally opened his mouth quietly.

"The proposals of the Secretary are all excellent. I have heard them, and I am simply enlightened."

"I really didn't think that Kiri would have such great talent, but I have underestimated the heroes of the world..."

It was normal that the Lord of Land of Birds would think so, because of some subjective and objective reasons, the Land of Birds lord's subordinates basically focused their horizons on their own country, and simply would not see the whole world as pawns in front of them as Makoto did.

As the lord of the country, he had already noticed something. However, because of the limitations of the times, he couldn't tell what certain problems were. It was not until Makoto united everything together and pierced through the maze for him.

Some things were just so simple, those who would are not difficult, those who are difficult will not be.

"Just..."

Just don't have the money, huh?

It wasn't until this time that Makoto spoke up about Bird Shit Island.

"Your Highness, you don't know..."

The reason why Makoto put the matter of Bird Shit Island at the end, instead of saying it at the beginning, was because he had considerations.

If it was said at the beginning, it could indeed draw the attention of the Birdshit Kingdom. After all, it was just a small country that could be rich and strong with those phosphates alone, and didn't need to refine copper at all.

Going against the daimyo of the Land of Water, they're under pressure too, and the loyalty of the wandering ninja is really questionable.

But if you have money... why not take advantage of it?

There was no need for Kiri to bring it up, the Land of the Birds would give up on forming a hidden village for the time being.

After all, there were still nine years to go, not tomorrow.

These guys had more prudent choices and would not choose an overly aggressive program.

But... if they did so, Konoha wouldn't be able to reap the benefits.

The opportunity is rare, Makoto wants to pull the Land of Birds, also into the trade system dominated by the Land of Fire.

So much nonsense in front of him was to pull the Land of Birds in.

The Land of Birds' lord obviously didn't think of that much, he knew that Kiri was also being pressed on his head, and didn't really want to offend him for the sake of the Daimyo.

Now Makoto for him inside and outside the reasoning all open, even more he pointed out a strategy to enrich the country and strengthen the army, he also felt no need to go to the founding of the ninja village.

He was not worried that Makoto was lying to him.

Two days and two nights without sleep, even an adult is extremely tired, but at this time the Land of Birds lord mood is so good that he does not care about this at all.

He laughed lightly, his tone filled with relief.

Apparently, for him, trying to make certain resolutions was likewise very hard work.

"You guys... it turns out that Kiri came prepared. Since there is such a detailed plan, why didn't you repair a letter over earlier, causing everyone to quarrel?"

Terumi Mei hated to give the other party a water knife.

Makoto but if he had played a little worse today, I'm afraid that someone would have to bleed.

However, after receiving a look from Makoto Zhou, Terumi Mei still stepped forward and bowed slightly.

"This is indeed my negligence, and forgive!"

"Aye aye, Mizukage-sama is really too polite, it was just a slight mention... Please don't take it to heart."

Although the nobles were being sprayed, but the lord of the country was in a really good mood. The multi-day boulder had now fallen, and his mood was even more relaxed.

He chatted with Terumi Mei a few more times, only for some reason, he suddenly changed the topic and reverted back to Makoto.

"Oh, right, Mizukage Lord, I have not asked... for advice before I don't know this gentleman, can I ever marry? I have a daughter Toki under my knee, regarded as a treasure, gentle and virtuous, I don't know ..."

Toki Princess, the plot is indeed a great beauty... also do not know her specific age, after all, inquiring about the information of the princess of others is not quite appropriate, but it is certain that she is now at most the most is the same as Koyuki, is only a loli... Hey, that's your daughter! Don't you look at our age difference?

Moreover, my current identity is a ninja, are you really willing to give up?

Terumi Mei's eyes were unblinking as she watched Makoto's reaction.

Makoto's face gradually twisted.

... ...

Since the beginning, Makoto hadn't talked much about the rouge ninjas with the Lord of the Land of Birds, but everyone knew that the rouge ninja's hope of trying to build a village was already gone.

They couldn't talk Makoto.

And if they fight... Kisame can take care of all the rouge ninjas by himself.

If the interest is enough, this group of knife head licking blood tough guy does not mind to fight with Kisame, but the matter has come to this point, Terumi Mei is also the Mizukage, even if there are ten thousand unwillingness in their hearts, they can only retreat in the gray.

After all, everyone was tired after talking for two days. Even if the lord of the Land of Birds wanted to keep Makoto to continue playing against him, his body was really unable to bear it and he could only give up temporarily.

In this way, Makoto just a few words, dissolved the huge crisis of Kiri.

While Terumi Mei was grateful, there were some questions in her heart.

"Isn't... it too simple?"

"You sensed that?"

"No, I just have a little feeling... are you hiding something and not saying it?"

Of course it was hidden.

And it's the most important one - he's not even cracking down on the old forces.

The Naruto world was similar to third brother in that there was an industrial revolution, but only half of it.

T/N: third brother, that one guy from Hero of Tomorrow

The relations of production didn't change significantly with it.

The Land of Fire was filled with crooked merchants, buyers, yakuza, clan forces, illegal churches, speculators, corrupt officials, and some guys that even Makoto couldn't quite categorize.

What even a country with industrial factions like the Land of Fire couldn't do, let alone the Land of Birds.

Don't look at the current situation where Makoto had made the cake bigger and everyone was making money, a happy place.

In less than five years, these nobles would surely join hands and swallow all of this part of the cake.

Makoto would not completely underestimate them just because he had far more power in his hands than others. Previously, Makoto had a difficult time trying to share a bit of the secret tradition in Konoha, let alone the world.

But fortunately, the Land of Birds wasn't Konoha either, and he didn't need to be responsible for the Land of Birds.

Since the Lord of the Land of Birds only liked to hear good news, it would be fine for him to only tell good news.

In a few years, even if these new cakes that he had panned out were devoured by the nobles, what did it matter to him.

A backward and conflicted country was what served the interests of Kiba as well as the Land of Fire.

If the worst case scenario... occurs, Nagato senior brother will step in.

This guy, lately, had been conceptualizing the creation of the Land of Shinobi - Makoto's constant stimulation of this senior brother had made him value collective power more than in the original, instead of relying on his Super Kage-class power to make random waves.

It's just that the location had never been figured out.

The Land of Rain would have been the best choice, but he obviously didn't want to make his hometown a target.

If that happened... what was the difference between him and Hanzo...

"I can defeat my enemies, but I can't defeat hearts and minds... But this is a matter for the Land of Birds, so let's not meddle too much, we'll be hated."

Terumi Mei looked at Makoto for a long time and finally nodded silently.

... ...

It was night, the moon and stars were sparse, and the trio did not leave, but stayed near the palace in the Land of Birds.

It wasn't that Makoto liked to waste time, he still had a lot of things to do. It was really that the Land of Birds side had just gotten a lucrative business and was very excited, and would not let the trio leave for a while.

In order to completely solve the hidden danger of Kiri and let Terumi Mei help find the Tenseigan, Makoto could only be patient and stay.

Recently, the sky was really getting colder and colder.

Makoto walked out of the inn and went to a nearest izakaya.

The owner's wife warmly greeted him and asked Makoto if he needed any special services.

These days, human life was worthless, and so was modesty.

The people of large countries suffered, but small countries suffered even more.

The boss's wife was very enthusiastic, but after seeing Makoto scratching his hand near his waist, indicating that he wanted the company of a girl this tall, the boss's wife immediately chilled her face and stopped talking about it.

Knowingly, Makoto didn't care, he asked for a private room, ordered a sukiyaki pot as well as two bottles of ice wine, and was left alone, slowly sitting and drinking.

-Think of the first time he drank in Naruto World, he drank with Minato. As a result, this bastard tricked him into drinking room-temperature wine...Mad, it was winter and he almost froze to death...

Makoto drank two mouthfuls of wine and somehow remembered the old days.

He actually does not drink much, it is really because there are too many things that bother him recently.

On the surface, Makoto is as stable as an old dog, but this year Makoto is honestly overdrawing too much of Konoha's diplomatic resources. And he recently came out too many times, too often, even with Kakashi as a stand-in, can not hide it for too long - Makoto has too many previous convictions, the diplomats of the three great hidden villages, they are all keeping an eye on him at all times, in case he sneaks out to play again.

Only the Suna exception... Nagato's matter, not to mention.

No one is a fool, they just didn't adapt to modern operations for a while. That is, right now, the five great hidden villages all have their own tricky things...

But one day, they'll settle the matter at hand and focus on Kiba as the head of the five villages.

Nine years is just an ultimatum.

Not a mandatory time limit.

"Hah..."

Ten minutes of self-loathing had passed today.

Time for positive energy.

The atmosphere was also in place, and Makoto couldn't help but dryly howl twice.

"I know that this world, was as short as dew, yet yet yet."

As Makoto was dryly howling like this, a person suddenly walked in outside.

It was Kisame.

"Very good haiku. I didn't expect you to have such a hobby. Are there such haiku masters in Konoha?"

"It's not bad, I copied it after all. Kisame, would you like some too? The fate of the ninja, the future of the country, let's talk about it while we eat."

Kisame didn't know how to reply to Makoto for a while.

This guy, the Godadime Hokage, regardless of knuckleheads, if we only talk about management ability, he was undoubtedly the strongest one among all the Kages of the past generations.

Especially this guy is still Hokage, has the strongest underlying Konoha, but also makes Konoha become mountainous and unbeatable.

It's this mouth...

Anyway, once this guy opens his mouth, it's definitely unexpected and outside of reason.

Simply let a person can not respect.

One good thing about Kisame, though, was that he rarely cared about anything outside of his mission.

He also didn't come to find Makoto for a drink this time.

"Are those guys... going to clean up?"

Saying this, Kisame, who originally had a soothing face, once again turned into that cold and ruthless great white shark.

As an enforcer, he didn't care if the enemy was vicious, he only asked where the enemy was. In order to accomplish his mission, he could either twist the enemy's neck right side up or gas the fishing guy into the hospital.

But after Makoto convinced the nobles, he didn't go after the wandering ninjas, which made Kisame quite uneasy.

So he came here specifically to ask Makoto about his next course of action.

"Shouldn't you be asking Terumi Mei this question? What's the point of asking me?"

Kisame paused for a moment, then also perceived the problem.

...Although they hadn't spent much time together, both Terumi Mei and he had gotten used to following the birdman's orders.

He always had a way of taking care of things beautifully.

Because there was really no such thing as majesty and because he fought with Yagura every day, Kisame sometimes even forgot that this guy was a Hokage and subconsciously thought that this guy was some little ragtag kid in Kiri...

"Ha... you can really..."

Makoto saw Kisame's predicament, but didn't say anything more.

After all, this was the effect he wanted.

Otherwise, what was he doing pretending to be an idiot with Yagura every day and getting beaten up by Terumi Mei.

It's not like he's a jitterbug.

Not to mention that he also had to control his words and bypass that lie detector in Terumi Mei's hand... That thing was the latest invention of the Konoha Research Institute, and hadn't been put on the market at all. Yagura this guy before cheekily asked him for one, did not think it was given to Terumi Mei.

Makoto grunted and finally invited Kisame to sit down.

Kisame finally couldn't pester Makoto and sat down.

"Godaime Hokage-sama, can I ask you a few questions?"

"...Go ahead."

"Kiri is in this situation right now, what exactly should... be done?"

Kisame was a notorious task-firstist, and he did not question any task. But nowadays this situation, even Kisame was a bit confused.

To be precise, he had been confused.

He had been looking for an answer.

But he didn't even know what the question was.

As he had finally said before he died, a person would not see himself clearly until he died.

But Makoto was not a life coach, and he didn't want to brush Terumi Mei's favor too high, so he just said the result.

"A female ruler will always be more susceptible to questions and inexplicable contempt from others. But on the flip side, this is also an opportunity... Yes, it's the body. -

"The child may not be a man's, but it must be a woman's. -

"Give birth to a hundred or eighty of her, what problem can't be solved."

What Makoto was talking about was, of course, the queen bus flow, that is, constantly using the queen's body to increase the number of lovers while increasing the power of one's own side, and ultimately choosing the best one as the successor from the children born with the lovers.

Sacrifice the queen one, happy family for a hundred years.

Ye Er and Cleopatra had both done similar things.

T/N: Ye Er is an antagonist of a chinese wuxia novel called Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, she's ranked second among the four villains, nicknamed "the one who commits all evil"

Hearing Makoto say that, Kisame's face twitched slightly.

"This... isn't too good..."

Ninjas would basically do anything for the sake of a mission, but for the sake of the village to become... Anyway, Naruto is a hot-blooded manga, not 18X.

No one has ever done that.

Makoto also knew that this suggestion was extremely inappropriate, and Terumi Mei would definitely be very upset if she knew about it.

Kisame would definitely tell Terumi Mei about this.

Turning the other cheek was unlikely, and a blowout in favorability was inevitable.

This was also the effect Makoto sought.

After completing the Land of Birds matter, Makoto could already feel as if Terumi Mei's eyes had changed when she looked at herself.

This was also the inevitable result.

Girls always liked outstanding men, and Terumi Mei was already a Mizukage, there weren't many males who could match her per se, and now even more so...

The two of them had agreed on a child a long time ago, and Terumi Mei already had a place for him in her heart. Just sandwiched between the village, she also knows that this relationship is doomed to end...

She is the Mizukage, he is the Hokage, they are destined to be incompatible and contradictory.

Terumi Mei is not Yagura after all.

If that's the case, don't let it start.

The child will be born as usual, and the interests will be robbed as usual. As long as the Kiri can be bloodless in the end, it will be considered a success.

Makoto did not want to get emotionally involved with Terumi Mei because her sense of responsibility was so heavy that it would inevitably crush her feelings.

If business was mixed with feelings, it would be difficult to do business.

Everyone would suffer.

"Is it good or what... you just don't tell her?"

Kisame didn't answer directly, just chucked a few pieces of meat.

Only after a long time did he speak again.

"I can't do it."

"Then say less, now the trouble, there are already enough... I am forcing you guys, you are not forcing me?"

"Is that so... Then why don't you relax a bit? That way, everyone can be a bit more relaxed as well right..."

The Four Great Hidden Villages were really being pushed hard by Makoto.

This King of the Inner Volumes was not doing well by himself, and he was also making it hard for everyone around him.

"That's not okay. I made an appointment with Minato...I want to brag in front of him..."

... ...

Kisame took the heads of a few rouge ninjas and returned to the inn where Terumi Mei was staying.

Because the heads had just been decapitated, the smell of blood was extremely strong and disgusting.

Fortunately, Terumi Mei was already used to fighting.

"Has... dealt with it cleanly?"

"Uh-huh."

"Did he ask you to do that?"

"Well, he said you need a sword to make friends, and you need a sword to deal with enemies."

"That's really his style." Terumi Mei was obviously a bit distracted, "I know, it's good to scare those nobles anyway... That's it."

Kisame could see the low mood of Terumi Mei.

"You seem to be a bit unhappy?"

"I... hey, it's actually nothing to tell you. It's just that after we go back this time, I'm afraid we'll be subjected to more reproaches and attacks..."

The matter of the Land of Birds had come to an end here.

But the Land of Water Daimyo and the Kiri elders would never let it go.

Especially the Land of Water Daimyo.

He was already a panther, and he was probably going to go crazy after having his face dropped like that recently.

And with the increasing pressure from the Land of Water, it was only natural that the Kiri elders would become more and more disgruntled with her - they had elected her in the hope of solving the problem and allowing the Misty Kiri to get better, not to be fully ostracized by the Land of Water!

And this, all had to do with Makoto.

The guy wasn't even willing to hide what he was thinking - he was just trying to make the rift between Kiri and the Land of Water grow deeper and deeper.

Terumi Mei was well aware of all this, but there was nothing she could do to change the status quo... He was that cold to the point that he wouldn't even let himself go.

Give up.

Terumi Mei's mind echoed with such thoughts, but she instinctively wanted to refuse.

Her ability to get to this point came entirely from the village's support. Even if the road ahead was difficult, she would never give up on the village.

"Maybe one day, we'll also play against that guy... It's really desperate to think about it."

Super Kage strength, coupled with an economic monster like Konoha, how can this be won...

Kisame cocked his head.

In this moment, he felt both Terumi Mei's and Makoto's pain.

But if either of the two could take a step back, perhaps the situation would change.

However, they could not retreat.

They didn't just represent themselves.

But...

"What is it, Kisame?"

"He wanted me to give you a message... It's an abbreviated version because I can't remember that much."

"What did he say? And it had to be the abbreviated version..."

"He said that he wants you to give him hundreds of children and to brag to the Yondaime Hokage Namikaze Minato."

A large question mark appeared on Terumi Mei's head.

"What does he take me for... Having that many babies will kill you!"

The girl snapped, sending Kisame flying with a punch.

"Let me see the time... hmm, at this time, it should be Kisame-san who falsely transmitted a message to help Pops confess to Terumi Mei-san... I really didn't expect that thick-browed guy to be able to lie as well..."

"But that's good... After all, it's the evil soul on earth now, and he can't do anything about people who like him. If it were a good soul, it would be in big trouble... But we can't take it lightly... Next, if I remember correctly, it should be the Land of Water Daimyo's anger, and the... regicide incident, right? ?"

"I don't know if Pops will launch an early financial storm over this... Shouldn't be that brutal yet..."

"So... is Uncle Nagato's Land of Ninjas?"

... ...

The news that the Land of Birds had given up on forming a hidden village quickly traveled back to the Land of Water.

The Daimyo of the Land of Water was furious at this.

At the reminder of his retainer, the Land of Water Daimyo, who was deeply disgraced, thought of another plan.

"Marry her off...!"
