In the simple tent set up in the camp, Rasa summoned all the high-ranking jounin in the camp. He also invited Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas of Konoha, and the other two jounin of Konoha, Sarutobi Takashi and Takashi Sarutobi. Sarutobi Saruko came over to participate in the meeting.
The remaining Konoha ninjas did not reveal their whereabouts under Sunagakure's careful arrangements.
Even if there is any reason to go outside for activities, you must transform into a Suna ninja and your identity cannot be revealed.
"You all saw last night's attack. It seems that we still underestimated the surprise capability of the Kingdom of Ghosts."
Although Luo Sha feels angry inside, he will not let himself be in a state of rage for no reason. Regulating his own emotions is also an essential ability of Feng Ying.
As the leader of Sunagakure, no matter what happens, he cannot lose his calm heart and allow the enemy to take advantage of him.
Instead of being angry, he now felt more headache and helplessness.
The Kingdom of Oni always makes unexpected surprise attacks, causing Sunagakure to lose on the battlefield again and again.
Ma Ji's vanguard army was in the Kingdom of Ghosts and encountered the Air Force of the Kingdom of Ghosts. Now there is a high probability that the entire army will be annihilated.
Uchiha Ruri led a large number of ninjas from the Kingdom of Demons and sneaked into the Land of Wind area silently, catching him off guard and putting Sunagakure at a disadvantage. It was precisely because of this intimidation that Rakshasa kept acting rashly, fearing that he would be attacked by Demons again. country’s ambush.
After knowing that the Kingdom of Ghosts has a strong air strike capability, Luo Sha has been careful enough and arranged many anti-air ballistas to help suppress the air strike capabilities of the Kingdom of Ghosts.
As a result, the weird robot doll last night not only had the ability to fly with high maneuverability, but could also create explosive light bombs, which caused a lot of trouble to Sunagakure. Although it did not cause any casualties to Sunagakure, it was still in the sky. It would be really disgusting if it were restrained.
Especially the bomb that could penetrate the ground at the end made the Kazekage's face become extremely exciting.
Judging from the current situation last night, not only the air, but also the ground may become unsafe.
If the Kingdom of Oni only attacks Sunagakure's supplies next, then it will undoubtedly be a painful and helpless thing for Sunagakure.
"Indeed, even if you watch a battle like that from a distance, you can still feel the power of the enemy. But what I didn't expect is that that girl appeared in our Konoha more than ten years ago, and it turned out that more than ten years later , still as young as before."
Jiraiya touched his chin, looking thoughtful.
The information on Tian Yunv was collected by Konoha.
Not only Konoha, but also Sunagakure must have been included.
More than ten years ago, the Tianyu girl not only appeared on the night of the Konoha defection incident, but also appeared during the earlier attack on Kusakure Village. There was a bounty of tens of millions of taels on the underground black market.
However, more than ten years have passed, and Tianyu Nu's appearance has not changed at all. She is still a teenage girl.
Although the ninja world has many facial-retaining techniques, these techniques are not accessible to ordinary ninjas.
Jiraiya could tell that Tianyu Nu's youthful appearance was not due to her transformation skills, but because she was so young to begin with.
"It's indeed a bit strange to say that. But I remember Chiba Shiraishi, he must have been a student of Tsunade Ninja in the past. As a medical ninja, he has quite a lot of experience in keeping his face."
Although many medical ninjas are not very interested in beauties, such as Chiyo, the elder of Sunagakure Village who has retired, there are still some medical ninjas who are very interested in beauties.
Take Tsunade from Konoha, for example. Her appearance is so incredibly young that no one can tell from her appearance that she is an old woman who is almost fifty years old.
Chiba Shiraishi and Tsunade have a teacher-student relationship, and Tianyu Nu has a complicated nepotism relationship with Chiba Shiraishi. It is not difficult to understand why she stays young.
"Not only that, if I didn't feel wrong last night, the technique she used to block a large number of detonating talismans last night should be an immortal technique."
Jiraiya's dark color became solemn.
"Immortal magic?"
Luo Sha was slightly stunned. He had not considered this aspect at all.
Jiraiya nodded. Although it was very weak, maybe due to the distance, it was not very intuitive, but Jiraiya still noticed something abnormal.
But he also had doubts.
If magic was used, why didn't the body experience any abnormal changes?
For example, Miaomu Mountain's magic will make the user possess some characteristics of a frog.
In the same way, Shigu Forest and Longdi Cave also have such characteristic changes.
However, he did not see these changes in Tianyu Nu.
Or is that not magic? But what about that weak natural energy reaction?
If it was really magic, where did she learn it?
There is no way to connect it with the three known magic systems of the Holy Land.
Tsunade once revealed that the Slug Immortal of the Shifty Bone Forest said that Qianye Baishi could use magic, but it was not the magic of Shigulin.
Did this girl learn her magic from Chiba Shiraishi?
Since Qianye Baishi's magic does not belong to the Third Generation Holy Land, where did it come from?
As far as Jiraiya knew, except for the three holy places in the ninja world, the natural energy cultivation method has not been handed down.
In addition, the process of cultivating natural energy is very dangerous. If there is no guide, it is very dangerous. If you are not careful, your life will be in danger.
Each of these questions made Jiraiya feel confused.
"The country of ghosts is really dangerous."
Luo Sha was glad that he had reached cooperation with Konoha in advance.
Although he has never been exposed to the shadow of the famous tree and celestial magic, he knows that it is a power that is comprehensively stronger than the chakra system.
Combined with the powerful strength shown by the girl in the miko uniform last night, being able to block the huge detonating talisman was definitely not something that ordinary ninjas could do.
Even among Sunagakure, there are only a handful of ninjas who can achieve that level.
"Because of this, we should stop their ambition to start a war. If this continues, it is likely to trigger the Fourth Ninja War."
If this were the case, too many innocent people would have died in this battle.
The Demon Country, which has clearly become a commercial country in the ninja world, also enjoys the status of a neutral country, and does not need to obtain benefits through such extreme methods as war.
He believed that the people and high-level officials of the Ghost Country, as well as the inexperienced witch, were deceived by some conspirators and did such extreme things.
Regardless of the cause of this incident or which party's fault it was, war was the most unacceptable wrong method for him.
Luo Sha nodded. To be honest, if the Kingdom of Ghosts is willing to negotiate with the Kingdom of Wind and is willing to cede some benefits to the Kingdom of Wind, such as preferential commercial policies, as compensation for their attack on the Kingdom of Wind, he is not The peace talks of the Kingdom of Ghosts cannot be accepted.
Even if it seems that the Demon Country has the upper hand now, if it drags on until the end, Sunagakure will definitely win.
Luo Sha's only consideration was to act so cautiously to minimize the damage in the battle, rather than fearing the power of the Kingdom of Ghosts.
"What are you going to do next, Mr. Fengying?"
Jiraiya asked.
"Since the Kingdom of Ghosts can turn both the air and the ground into their fire coverage area, how about we use them to their advantage?"
Luo Sha smiled meaningfully, as if he had thought of some strategy to defeat the enemy.
"Just follow the plan?"
Luo Sha ordered someone to bring a map of the Kingdom of Wind, on which the locations of all areas of the Kingdom of Wind were marked.
He pointed to an area in the northwest of the Kingdom of Wind and said: "This is the base established by the Kingdom of Ghosts in the northwest of the Kingdom of Wind. It looks like they plan to stay in the Kingdom of Wind for a long time. Now I have some doubts about the purpose of the Kingdom of Ghosts. We didn’t launch this war specifically for the northwest region of our Kingdom of Wind.”
Jiraiya was thoughtful, then frowned.
Indeed, as Luo Sha said, if there is no plan to stay for a long time, there is no need for the Kingdom of Ghosts to build such an extremely strong military fortress in the northwest of the Kingdom of Wind.
Jiraiya also began to suspect that the Kingdom of Ghosts was so unscrupulous in establishing a military base in the northwest of the Kingdom of Wind that it regarded the northwest region of the Kingdom of Wind as its own territory.
This had to make Jiraiya think about the purpose of the Kingdom of Ghosts in launching this war. The loan from the Kingdom of Winds might be just an excuse. Even without this excuse, the Kingdom of Ghosts would use other excuses to attack the Kingdom of Winds.
Their goal is to obtain the northwest region of the Kingdom of Wind.
In this way, many things that are difficult to explain can be explained clearly.
"Since they want the northwest region of the Kingdom of Wind so much, then give it to them, extend the front line of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and let them continue to penetrate deep into the northwest region of the Kingdom of Wind. Then allocate troops to segment the rear battle line of the Kingdom of Ghosts. Tear them apart, making them unable to take care of both ends and becoming turtles in a urn, completely leaving them in the Kingdom of Wind."
Luo Sha said categorically.
Compared to the other ninjas in the Kingdom of Ghosts, Luo Sha didn't take them seriously. Even the so-called air force was not invincible.
Even if the other ninjas from the Kingdom of Demons were let go, the leader of the Ninja Army of the Kingdom of Demons could not escape.
The combat power of high-end ninjas is a terrifying meat grinding machine on the battlefield.
Especially ninjas at the level of the Five Shadows.
Based on the important information Jiraiya brought this time, combined with the situation he predicted that day, there is no doubt that Uchiha Ruri is the same as Hyuga Ayane. Although he is not the Five Kage, he has a powerful strength that is equal to or stronger than the Five Kage.
As for Chiba Shiraishi, due to a serious lack of information, it is still impossible to accurately determine whether he is also a ninja at the Five Kage level.
However, a man who can stay with these two terrifying women cannot be a simple ninja.
Therefore, in this war, in Luo Sha's view, the significance of beheading is greater than the annihilation of the ninja troops of the Demon Country.
Two...or three combat units equivalent to the Five Shadows are undoubtedly a huge threat to Sunagakure and Konoha.
If we don't take this opportunity to eradicate them, we won't be able to find an opportunity to attack them in the future.
After hearing Rasa's opinion, before Jiraiya could say anything, Sarutobi Takashi said doubtfully: "Well, Mr. Kazekage, if you extend their front line like this, will the Demon Country be easily fooled? If you do it too deliberately, it will Let’s alert them.”
Rasa's method is indeed a good one, but in Sarutobi Takashi's view, there are many problems that need to be solved urgently.
That is to give up the northwest region too deliberately, which will alert the Kingdom of Ghosts and prevent the Kingdom of Ghosts from falling into the trap. It will be a waste of time and a lot of time and energy, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
Luo Sha also knew the concerns of Jiraiya and others, so he smiled and said: "Of course it is not to let the Kingdom of Demons eat the northwest region at will, but to really lose. In this way, the Kingdom of Demons will not be able to see this. There are flaws in it. What do you think?"
Hearing what Rasa said, Jiraiya, Sarutobi Takashi and Sarutobi Saruko all had their eyes shining, and they couldn't help but glance at Rasa's confident and determined face.
This Kazekage-sama is not a simple person either.

"Ah, I'm so annoyed. Why are these flies always buzzing in my ears? Can't they all be pushed away?"
Compared to the battlefield on the front line, which is gradually heating up, at the rear of the Kingdom of Ghosts, at the shrine outside the capital Shion Castle, the girl's impatient and willful words are heard.
The girl wears a witch costume with a layer of transparent white gauze on the outside, and a golden and gorgeous crown on her head. The overall appearance gives people a noble and celestial demeanor.
But compared to her increasingly impatient and irritable tone, she was no different from an ordinary troubled little girl.
In other words, in this regard, she is more willful than the average little girl.
Because in this country, almost no one can restrict her freedom, and no one can be rude to her.
"Then, are all the envoys from various countries to be forcibly sent back?"
The shrine maidens serving on the left and right asked Shion's opinion in a low voice.
The other party is the biological daughter of the former miko Maitreya. Although she herself has no talent for political matters, as a miko, she does not need to have any particularly good talent for politics.
As long as she is willing, countless people in the Kingdom of Ghosts will respond to her call.
The long-standing character of the witch has long been deeply imprinted in the blood of the people and nobles of this country.
With this in mind, she holds the most powerful authority in the country.
However, most of the time, witches are disdainful of power. The previous generation of witches, Maitreya, was like this and did not want to be contaminated by too much fireworks in the world.
However, as the successor of Miroku Maitreya, the eight-year-old new shrine maiden Shion is not unworldly.
Her personality is different from that of her mother, Miroku. She is a more willful girl. Coupled with the indulgence of a certain 'father', she will occasionally sneak out of the shrine alone, mix with the people, watch movies and attend festivals.
This made the witches who served her helpless.
This time there was so much friction between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Wind. Although the shrine maiden, as a special symbol, could stay out of the matter, many countries still sent envoys to visit them.
Among the envoys sent by various countries, the majority are malicious.
And malice, in front of a miko, is like a light in the dark, unable to be hidden even if you want to.
The eyes of a witch can not only see the future, but also see through the light and darkness of people's hearts.
"Everyone, hurry back. We have made an appointment. We are going to the cinema with Brother Asuka in the afternoon to watch Xiaoxue's new movie. How can we have time to entertain these boring guys?"
Rather than meeting boring envoys from various countries, Ziyuan felt more satisfied by going to the cinema to watch a movie with her family.
"Yes...but among these envoys, there is Mr. Shikaku Nara, the envoy sent by Konoha from the Fire Country. Do you want to meet him? It seems that there is something urgent and I must see Master Shion. They also bring the Fire Country Daimyo with them. Handwritten letter.”
The witch asked without any impatience.
Among the envoys visiting from various countries, Konoha Ninja Village is the most important one, not to mention that they also carry personal letters from the Daimyos of the Land of Fire.
"Why are you all coming to see me? I'm not interested in diplomatic matters."
Shion frowned.
"Maybe I want to find a breakthrough from Lord Shion."
"Oh, you don't dare to bully father, so why don't you come to bully me, an ignorant and kind-hearted miko?"
Shion's dark face became increasingly dissatisfied.
No, you cannot be called ignorant and kind no matter how you look at it. The serving miko said something in her heart.
In terms of willfulness, she is nothing like a mother and daughter like the miko Maitreya of the previous generation.
How should I put it, compared to her mother, Shion lives more like a living human being.
You will feel happy when you encounter interesting things.
Will get angry when something unpleasant happens.
Meeting good people only to see their death scenes can make your mood sour.
When you meet a bad guy and see how the bad guy will die tragically in the future, you will feel better.
"Then bring him in."
Ziyon thought for a moment, her tone calmed down, and she turned to the miko next to her.
"yes."
The witch nodded and walked out of the hall.
After about five minutes, the miko who had just gone out returned, followed by an adult male.
Wearing Konoha's unique ninja uniform, there are scars on the side of his face and forehead that show his masculinity, making his temperament more mature and stable.
The Konoha ninja who came in with the miko was none other than Konoha jounin Nara Shikaku, who was Konoha's envoy to visit the miko Shion of the Kingdom of Demons.
Moreover, he also has the dual important identities of Konoha's Jonin squad leader and Nara clan leader. He is also a well-known figure in Konoha. He is a strategist ninja who can be called a think tank in Konoha.
Sensing that a stranger had come in, Shion quickly stuffed the cake in her hand into her mouth, straightened her posture, and showed the proper and elegant posture of the Lord of the Kingdom of Ghosts.
It is blocked by gauze curtains and screens that are not very transparent. If you don't look inside, you won't know what's going on inside at all. Only vague shadows will be reflected, leaving a mysterious and unknown impression. .
Shikaku entered the main hall. Different from the hot and hot weather outside, the shrine main hall was not only ventilated from all sides, but also the air was cool, which made people feel refreshed and the fatigue from the long journey disappeared a lot.
Shikaku heard that an electrical appliance company in the Land of Ghosts had developed a convenient appliance called an air conditioner, which could regulate the temperature of the ambient air in a certain space.
The cool wind blowing in the shrine hall is probably produced by this kind of electrical appliance.
In his ears, he could still hear the faint sound of machine operation.
I have to say that this is a very convenient and affordable appliance that is good for indoor working in summer and winter.
Both sides of the road in the main hall are also covered with transparent curtains. You can see a famous witch sitting dignifiedly behind the gauze curtain, seeming to be doing some required practice exercises.
If you don't pay careful attention to these witches, you will find that their aura does not exist at all.
Compared with the prosperity and affluence of the capital Shion Castle, most of the shrines still retain the retro style and are full of historical atmosphere.
"Master Shion, Mr. Nara Shikaku from Konohagakure will bring you here."
The miko who led Shikaku in stopped in front of the gauze curtain and reported to Shion inside.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
The voice is clear and clear, completely gone from the willful and unreasonable little girl's temper before.
The miko stepped aside respectfully, her eyes watching Shikaku's every move.
Although I don’t think the other party will do anything extraordinary, necessary precautions are still necessary.
After all, the current relationship between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Fire can be considered very tense.
But what does Konoha's pursuit of the Demon Country's military have to do with their Demon Country mikos who specialize in exorcising demons?
Lu Jiu knelt down on a cushion in the center of the hall, his hands neatly placed on his knees. Just as he was about to speak, Shion's voice sounded in the hall first:
"You will die."
"?"
Shikaku thought for a moment that he had a hearing problem, or that his ears were malfunctioning?
The miko standing aside sighed helplessly, here she comes again.
For Ziyon, predicting people's death is just a common thing. It is not to show off, but because her character is so willful and true.
Although the Maitreya witches of the previous generation could also see how people died, they never revealed anything, choosing instead to keep the secrets of people's deaths in their hearts.
But Ziyuan is different, she doesn't have this self-consciousness.
"I'm sorry, Messenger, sometimes I can't control my mouth and say what I see with my eyes... I think the Messenger won't mind, right?"
"..."
Can such words predicting someone's death really be uttered casually? Shikaku complained in his mind.
As a waiter sent by Konoha to the Kingdom of Demons, he was in a very bad mood.
Now that I heard my prediction about death, I felt even worse.
Rather than traveling to the Land of Demons, wouldn't it be better to go out drinking with Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza? Otherwise, I would find someone to play chess, or practice with my son, or leisurely watch the clouds alone in the yard... Such wonderful time has been wasted.
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind."
Shikaku took a deep breath, his expression as normal.
"Well, that's good. Even if you mind, it won't change anything. After all, my predictions have not been wrong so far, so don't worry."
"..."
Hearing this, Shikaku became even more uneasy and a little restless.
Can this miko speak?
If he hadn't been well-educated, it wouldn't have been impossible for him to have gone berserk on the spot.
Forget it, just treat it as a child's willful speech. Lu Jiu thought helplessly.
It was impossible for him to argue with a child under ten years old, not to mention the other person's identity. If he was a little disrespectful, the witches around him would definitely use physical means to 'invite' him out of the palace.
"Your Highness the Miko, this time I am traveling to the Demon Country as Konoha's envoy, and I am here for one thing."
Shikaku planned to get to the point and could no longer let Shion lead the way.
"Messenger, please speak."
"It's a little complicated to say. The purpose of my mission to the Demon Country this time is to help the three dangerous rebellious ninjas Chiba Shiraishi, Uchiha Ruri, and Hyuga Ayane, including the Demon Country taking in some Uchiha who defected to Konoha. Come with the Hyuga clan ninjas and the remnants of the Uzumaki clan who were taken in by the Kingdom of Demons. If possible, we hope that the Kingdom of Demons can give up these people..."
Before Shikaku could finish speaking, Shion interrupted:
"Wait a mininute."
Shion interrupted.
Shikaku looked at Shion in confusion.
Shion's voice came from behind the curtain.
"Messenger, are you here on behalf of Konoha or the Country of Fire? When it comes to this kind of country-to-country diplomacy, shouldn't Konoha apply to the Daimyo of the Country of Fire, and then the Daimyo of the Country of Fire send officials to carry out the matter? Negotiate?”
To put it simply, the identities of Konoha and the Kingdom of Demons are not equal.
Even though Konoha has a powerful military, it does not have equal diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Demons.
In the past, the business cooperation between the Kingdom of Oni and Konoha was first through the Daimyo Prefecture of the Country of Fire before arranging personnel to Konoha, instead of going directly across the government agencies of the Country of Fire to reach business cooperation with Konoha in one step. .
Such a business contract is illegal internationally and will not be protected by formal laws.
The same applies to diplomacy.
Shikaku did not panic, but took out a letter from his arms.
"This is a letter written by the daimyo to His Highness. Please read it."
The miko on the side came over, took the letter from Shikaku's hand, then came behind the curtain and handed the letter from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to Shion.
Ziyuan secretly picked up a piece of cold pastry and ate it in her mouth. Eating ice-cold pastry in summer is really a wonderful enjoyment.
After reading the letter, the content was mostly as she expected.
"I see, I roughly know the matter. The request is reasonable. After all, most of these people are guilty internationally. But what about handing over the Uzumaki clan? As far as I know, The Uzumaki clan is the remnant of the Uzumaki Country, which has long since disappeared in the war, and is not affiliated with the Fire Country and Konoha, so why should they be handed over as well?"
There was no shame on Lujiu's face. Although he did feel ashamed in his heart, that was what he was asked to say.
If the attitude of the Uzumaki Country and the Uzumaki Clan towards the Fire Country and Konoha is still as firm as before, then Shikaku feels that such a proposal is understandable.
However, the so-called 'covenant' was torn apart a long time ago.
The alliance drawn up with the Whirlpool Country and the Whirlpool Clan has long been immersed in the long river of history and looks pale and feeble.
"The Uzumaki Country and the Uzumaki Clan have been the strongest allies of the Fire Country and Konoha since ancient times. This friendship has been established since the era of one country and one village. Therefore, after the unanimous decision of the Daimyo and the Hokage , we plan to carve out a piece of land within the Country of Fire for the Uzumaki clan to recuperate."
"Yeah?"
Ziyuan didn't make any comments, just responded calmly.
"Yes, what do you think, Your Highness? Do you agree, or..."
Shikaku raised his head and looked intently at Shion behind the curtain.
Only with the curtains and screens blocking him, he couldn't accurately see the other person's face, and couldn't judge the other person's intentions through his expression and eyes.
Really cautious. Shikaku thought to himself.
"Although I personally think your request is reasonable, it is also true that I cannot do it."
Shion replied.
"Why?"
"Because according to regulations, shrine maidens in the Kingdom of Ghosts cannot interfere in political affairs before the age of sixteen. In other words, my opinions can be used as a reference for officials at all levels in the Kingdom of Ghosts, but the final decision-making power does not belong to me. .”
Shion answered this sentence.
"Before the age of sixteen... you can't participate in politics?"
Shikaku frowned.
He knew Ziyuan would probably refuse, but he didn't expect the reason for refusal to be so elegant and refined.
In other words, before the other party is sixteen years old, he has no right to decide all matters within the Kingdom of Ghosts.
"Your Highness, as far as I know, the Kingdom of Ghosts did not have such regulations in the past."
"This is true, because the regulations were set eight years ago. If you don't pay special attention to this kind of thing, it is normal for outsiders not to know."
"Eight years ago?"
"Well, yes, the rules were set by the previous generation of miko Maitreya, my mother. Before the age of sixteen, I did not participate in political power. The only feasible power is that I have full authority to preside over the sacrificial ceremony."
Shion explained this.
Miko is a symbol of divine power. Although the so-called divine power is not truly given by the gods, mikos in the Kingdom of Ghosts are deified existences and have been guarding this country for thousands of years.
Whether passive or active, this is an indisputable fact.
"So, if the envoy has any objections to the rules of the Kingdom of Ghosts, he can discuss it with my mother and ask her to change it."
"..." Lu Jiu didn't know how many times he took a deep breath today, and continued to ask: "So, in the Kingdom of Ghosts, can you recommend to me an official who can take charge of this matter? Your Highness?"
Shion remained quiet.
The miko on the side looked at Shikaku with subtle eyes.
Not to mention the military and the garrison, although there are still many important departments in the Kingdom of Demons controlled by the original officials of the Kingdom of Demons, the Uchiha clan is now managing the finances of the Kingdom of Demons behind the scenes.
If you want to move the Uchiha clan, it will be equivalent to severely damaging the Shion Flower Chamber of Commerce. It is the hard work of countless officials and businessmen from the Kingdom of Demons. You can imagine what kind of blow the commerce and industry of the Demon Kingdom will be hit by. Know.
It is not impossible to directly bring the living standards of the Ghost Country back to the state of poverty it was in before industrial and commercial changes more than ten years ago.
If a great power fails, there is still the possibility of a comeback.
Once a small country is defeated, the Rain Country is the best example. So many years after the Third Ninja War, it is still struggling on the poverty line.
Shikaku stopped talking. Seeing the subtle look the miko looked at, he thought of a very bad possibility.
That is the people who can really take charge of this matter in the Kingdom of Ghosts now, namely Qianba Shiraishi and the other three.
In other words, at the end of the journey, it was discovered that the three S-class rebel ninjas from Konoha were the ones who really made the final decision in the Kingdom of Demons?
What is this? Shikaku sighed inwardly.
Ziyuan blocked everything he wanted to say next.
You cannot participate in politics before the age of sixteen.
Even if the rebellious nin wanted to be tried, he would have to wait until he was sixteen.
And those who can call the shots in the Kingdom of Demons now are precisely a group of S-level rebellious ninjas.
If you have any objections, you can discuss it with Maitreya, the former shrine maiden, and change the law. But how can you discuss it with the former shrine maiden...?
According to the information known by Konoha, after each generation of miko seals the demon sprite, it will be homogenized with the sprite. In other words, the previous generation of miko Maitreya is now in the belly of the monster sprite from another world.
"Your Highness, as a neutral country, the Demon Country, if it tries to win over traitorous ninjas too much..."
"Ah, recruiting rebellious ninjas was a matter for the previous generation of shrine maidens, so before I officially join politics, the envoy can go to the previous generation of shrine maidens to resolve the matter. If the envoy is not too anxious and has enough patience, he can wait until I reach adulthood at the age of sixteen. time, it can also be solved.”
In short, she has to wait until she reaches the age of sixteen and can participate in politics.
Otherwise, go to the former generation miko who knows the matter and resolve the matter.
Well-founded and reasonable.
Although this method is rogue, it is the most effective.
"I see."
Shikaku was about to give up. Starting from the miko of the Kingdom of Demons, the plan formulated by Konoha's top management to divide the Kingdom of Demons had obviously failed.
No matter how eloquent he is and how he forces him in various ways, the other party can postpone all matters until he is sixteen years old.
Or use the previous generation of miko as a shield, like a copper wall, impeccable.
◎
Come down from the shrine.
Yamanaka Haiichi and Akimichi Choza, who came to the Kingdom of Demons with him, have been waiting at the foot of the mountain for a long time.
Seeing Shikaku coming down the stone steps, he walked over and asked, "Shikaku, how was the negotiation?"
Shikaku glanced at Haiyi and Dingzuo and shook his head.
"No, it's completely impossible to negotiate."
Haiyi and Ding Zuo were not surprised by this.
Since the plan to split the Kingdom of Ghosts from the rear failed, the only way left was the surprise attack force ambushed in the Kingdom of Wind.
"Are you going back next?"
Dingzuo asked.
Shikaku replied: "No, although the miko's negotiations failed, the Hokage-sama asked us to come to the Kingdom of Ghosts for more than just this purpose. Because even if the miko's negotiations failed, there are still alternatives available. "
"Options?"
Ding Zuo and Hai looked at each other, not knowing what this so-called alternative plan was.
This alternative may have been explained to Shikaku by Naruto alone.
Shikaku sighed, not stating what this alternative was.
Instead, he looked at the prosperous and tall commercial city not far away. Compared with the Kingdom of Fire, it was even more prosperous and beautiful.
Whether it is public security, the cleanliness of the roads, or the residents living in the city, you can feel the sincere happiness and fullness on their faces.
This kind of scene can be seen not only in Ziyuan City, but also in many villages and towns in the Kingdom of Ghosts.
While most people at the bottom of various countries are still pursuing basic survival food, most people in the Ghost Country are already pursuing a higher material life and higher quality education.
It would be unreasonable for such a country not to become stronger.
It's a pity that once the Demon Kingdom on the front line is defeated, this glorious and prosperous city will be reduced to scorched earth.
Destruction and destruction are far simpler than construction.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiu put away his pity and regained his composure in his eyes.
Precisely because we are enemies, we should nip this threat in the bud.
At the beginning of the war, it can be said that each side is fighting for its own 'justice'.
It's understandable and agreeable, but in terms of stance, Lu Jiu has always believed that dead enemies are the 'good' people.
If you want to say why, he is a Konoha ninja, and this reason is enough.
