Uchiha Tokumitsu did not receive the Kumogakure delegation immediately. Instead, after arranging their accommodation and sending people to surround them, he left them alone for a few days.
Since our side is the winning side, there is no need to rush the so-called peace negotiations.
Moreover, some time must be left for the ninjas of the ninja clan who have just been assigned the territory to search for the place.
Otherwise, if Kumogakure really promised Uchiha Tokumitsu's lion mouth, he would be embarrassed to go back on his word.
It was not until the fifth day that the Kumogakure delegation arrived at the temporary residence of the shogunate that Uchiha Tokumitsu invited Hatake Sakumo, Uchiha Kamon, Sansho Hanzo, and Iwagakure's dispatched force commander Huang Tu to prepare to join the Kumogakure delegation. The group held talks.
It's just a "talk", not a formal peace negotiation.
In other words, whatever is said during the talks is not counted and does not form a binding covenant.
"The Yunyin Barbarians have never been trustworthy, so we don't need to be too polite to them."
Uchiha Tokumitsu said to Huangtu, the commander of Iwagakure who came from afar: "Maximizing profits is the goal we should pursue."
"It's just a pity that Yunyin couldn't be destroyed..."
Huang Tu felt it was a pity.
However, he also knew that although three parties were currently besieging Kumogakure, in fact, each of the three major ninja villages had their own agenda, and they were all looking forward to the other party consuming Kumogakure's power, and there was no way to launch a real coordinated attack.
And with just one village, there is no way to shake the foundation of Yunyin.
"After all, the one-village-one-country system is the order established by Lord Hashirama and is also the foundation of peace. Although we, as younger generations, are not very satisfied with this system, we cannot take the initiative to destroy it..."
Uchiha Demitsu said hypocritically.
On the outside, Huang Tu agreed, but in his heart he was complaining.
In the entire ninja world, who doesn’t know that you, Uchiha Tokumitsu, are arrogant and domineering and don’t take the shadow of your own ninja village seriously? The shogunate system has brought the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Water into chaos. As an Uchiha clan member, you still How ashamed to mention Senju Hashirama in such a pretentious manner!
However, Loess then thought about it, maybe this was the reason for Uchiha Tokko's success, so he put aside his inner prejudices and took the initiative to analyze the intentions behind Uchiha Tokko's every move.
"The contents involved in the meeting are not counted, so if Iwagakure has any requests, he can put them forward boldly."
Uchiha Tokko secretly encouraged.
"Iwagakure doesn't ask for much, and his goal is just for the peace of the ninja world..."
Huangtu responded while thinking about Uchiha Tokimitsu's intentions, "But the current situation in the Kingdom of Thunder was still defeated by Tokko-sama led by Tokko-sama, so Iwagakure still has to follow your wishes..."
This guy is hard to fool!
Such thoughts came to Uchiha Tokko's mind.
"Several small vassal countries of the Kingdom of Thunder have affected the balance of the ninja world, and the sectarian relationship must be divested."
Hatake Sakumo interjected.
"That's right."
Uchiha Tokko nodded repeatedly.
The two sang and harmonized with each other, and they had a tacit understanding.
"...Then how to divide the ownership of small vassal countries?"
Huang Tu asked proactively.
This is related to the interests of Iwagakure Village and the Country of Earth, so we have to take the initiative.
Perhaps the daimyo of the Earth Kingdom may not be willing to obtain these trivial benefits at the expense of destroying the tacit understanding between the daimyo nobles of various countries, but Iwagakure doesn't care. At worst, he can just follow the example of the Tokumitsu Shogunate and directly crack the soil to rule.
"The northern part of the Frost Country can be assigned to Iwagakure, while the southern part will be jointly managed by Mr. Firegate's Northwest Shogunate and Iwagakure. The specific ownership will be discussed separately after three years."
Hatake Sakumo said.
The implication is that other small countries have no share in Iwagakure.
Although Loess was not satisfied, considering that Kumo Gakure's southbound ninja army was completely defeated by Uchiha Tokimitsu's troops, although Iwagakure sent out a large number of troops, there was never a big battle, so it was not easy to bargain.
"What Mr. Sakumo said makes sense..."
A simple and honest smile appeared on Huang Tu's face and he nodded repeatedly towards Hatake Sakumo, then turned to Uchiha Kamon and said: "In the future, I hope that General Kato will support the control of the Frost Kingdom."
Uchiha Kamon nodded calmly.
"So, does Iwagakure have any other requests?"
Uchiha Tokko asked.
"...Considering that Kumogakure is the source of war in the ninja world, I suggest that we garrison the southern part of Thunder Country according to the current occupation area, and then exchange the territory after Kumogakure gives up the expansionist ideas of the fighting faction."
It was obvious that Uchiha Tokumitsu was going to dig a hole for Iwagakure, who was filled with desires, but Loess still took the initiative to jump in and tried to pull Konoha into the water.
"That's right. Mr. Huang Tu's proposal is very good. This is no problem!"
Uchiha Tokko immediately agreed.
Huang Tu was stunned for a moment, and then forced a smile on his face, but he was very confused in his heart.
"Did...did I do something wrong or say something wrong..."
What he didn't know was that Uchiha Tokumitsu had already planned and was waiting for Iwagakure to make this request.
Even in the division of the occupied area, he planned to give up a part to Iwagakure as bait in the bargaining between the two parties, so as to attract the other party to stay in the Kingdom of Thunder to attract Kumogakure's firepower.
As for the Konoha-occupied area in the Kingdom of Thunder, he also thought about taking over Pan Xia.
That is to hand it over to the Sarutobi Shogunate who was deprived of control over the border defense forces.
This can be regarded as a kind of compensation for the landless and powerless Sarutobi shogunate. As for whether Sarutobi Shinnosuke is willing to accept it, and whether he will have the energy to separate the country after the separation, it is none of Uchiha Tokko's business.
Anyway, Uchiha Tokumitsu's intentions are in place. Whether he can grasp it or not is a matter for Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
But if the jurisdiction falls in the future, don't blame Uchiha Tokumitsu for taking advantage of the situation.
"I don't know if Shinnosuke, the half-Jinchuuriki, will be snatched away by Kumogakure..."
Uchiha Tokko thought maliciously.
"There is also the tailed beast dispute that concerns the reputation of the Rain Ninja Village. Kumogakure also needs to give the Rain Ninja an explanation..."
Sanshouyu Hanzo said.
"That's right, that's right. It should be so."
Huang Tu nodded repeatedly, "This is also evidence of Yunyin's crime of bullying the small country. They must pay the price!"
"Mr. Hanzo, just say whatever you want. Iwagakure will definitely support you!"
From what he said, it seemed that the relationship between Iwagakure and Amegakure was very harmonious.
"...Kumogakure's idea is to recover the second tail, so how about punishing him accordingly?"
Uchiha Tokumitsu took the initiative and said: "Anyway, the second tail is missing now, which also shows that Kumo Gakure cannot control such an important power at all. It is better to deprive Kumo Gakure of the power to control the second tail. From now on, whoever finds it among us will be the one who counts." of?"
This is not impossible...
Loess and Sanshouyu Hanzo were both moved in their hearts. They suddenly looked at each other and agreed.
Both Ame Ninja and Iwagakure are in the central and northern part of the Ninja World, and they are also the traditional "refresh" locations for the Two-Tails. In this way, there may be some opportunities...
Iwagakure was not satisfied with having two tailed beasts, while Sanshouyu Hanzo began to dream about the beautiful vision of the rain ninja village rising to the sixth largest country after having tailed beasts.
Of course, they didn't know that the Two-tailed Brigade had already been controlled by Uchiha Tokko countless times at this time.
"And where is the Eight-Tails?"
Huang Tu thought for a while and asked again.
"The Eight-Tails is dead..."
Uchiha Tokko replied.
"There will always be resurrection..."
The loess is reluctant to leave.
"After all, the Kingdom of Thunder is one of the five major countries, and Kumogakure is also one of the five major ninja villages. It makes no sense that there are no tailed beasts..."
Uchiha Tokumitsu raised his head first and then suppressed it, "Why don't we classify the eight-tailed beast as a wild tailed beast? Both we and Kumogakure can capture it, and then we can each show our abilities."
Sansho Hanzo, Uchiha Kamon and Hatake Sakumo nodded in agreement, while Huangtu was hesitant.
How great it would be if Kumogakure could be deprived of his control over the two tailed beasts! In that case, Iwagakure can establish an absolute combat advantage over Kumogakure!
"If Mr. Huang Tu has any ideas, you can put them forward, and we will discuss them. If it doesn't work, just show your hands and vote~"
Uchiha Tokumitsu said hypocritically: "You and I are allies on the same front, so there is nothing to worry about..."
And a show of hands to vote...
Huangtu looked at Uchiha Tokumitsu speechlessly, the other three are on the same boat as you, why are you voting!
"Everything General Tokumitsu thinks is a far-sighted move, Iwagakure has no objection!"
Huang Tu also said coyly.
"That's good~"
Uchiha Tokumitsu nodded with satisfaction, and then summoned the attendant ninja, "Summon the envoy of Kumogakure to come and see us!"
