The small island where the ruins of the Vortex Country is located is sandwiched between the Land of Fire and the Land of Water. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThere are many smaller countries like this in the vicinity, and this is the case with several countries that have invaded this time.

From an objective point of view, if these countries want to become rich and strong, reunification and war are inevitable. Because they need land and resources, too small a territory restricts development for all. Especially with two superpowers with strained relations next to them, they could be used as battlefields at any time.

No one is going to be purely fond of war, it's a choice that has to be made. Surrendering to the ownerless Vortex Nation is a better choice. This is similar to helplessness in a particular situation. No matter how hard you try, it is useless, and those who are poor will still be poor, because someone has already gotten rich first.

Then there is only a robbery.

The surrounding country of bears, the country of iron, and the country of soup would not do such a thing, and some countries about the same size as the original country of vortex could hardly afford the cost of starting a war. Only a country like the Tea Country, which has developed because of cash crops, will actively seek to expand.

The Tea Country is also a small island country, but because of its unique climate of abundant rainfall and spring all year round, the tea cultivation industry is very developed. While making huge profits through tea, the people of the tea country have also developed a quiet and elegant lifestyle. However, the belligerence of a feudal state depends entirely on its monarch.

The daimyo of the Tea Country was an ambitious monarch.

On a cold morning in early November, the daimyo of the Tea Country got up early to attend to government affairs. He was a diligent monarch bent on strengthening his country. And now he is even more desperate, because he is doing something big enough to change the fortunes of the country.

"Are there any more villages in the country protesting the tax hike this month? What a group of short-sighted fools, in order to prosper in the future, dedication and sacrifice are necessary. ”

He drew a circle on the document with a red pen, and the daimyo casually threw it aside. In his heart, the village that dared to disobey him needed to be punished as it deserved.

"Come, call the Secretary of State and the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs."

Words echoed back and forth through the empty halls, like ghostly whispers, unheeded.

"Bastard, where are all the dead?"

The daimyo angrily put down the pen in his hand, intending to stand up and go to the derelict subordinate officials and give them a little color. But just as he got up, a gust of wind blew from behind, making him involuntarily sit down again.

"Don't get too excited. Anger hurts the liver, sorrow is better than fear, you are so angry and will only hurt your body. ”

Turning his head in a hoarse voice, the daimyo saw a grimace of Prajna. It was a masked man, as small as an underage child, wearing a black bodysuit and several ninja knives behind his back. This is a typical assassin.

"Assassins, guards!"

Before he could shout for help, a dull blow of the knife stabbed into the abdomen, interrupting his words.

"Don't get too excited. Your guards are sleeping soundly now, and they won't be able to come for a while. It's just the two of us right now. ”

"You, who are you? What is your purpose? ”

Cold sweat kept staying, and the words were intermittent. As if to see the ugliness of the Daimyo, the Assassin sneered twice.

"Don't panic, it doesn't matter who I am, it's your life that matters. I don't want to kill more, but I have a small request that the Daimyo can help me make it happen. ”

"What is the request, the money? No problem! ”

Hearing this, the daimyo immediately had a bottom. As long as it doesn't hurt his life and doesn't threaten his rule, any rude requests may as well be agreed to first.

"It's not that kind of thing. I've heard that you've recently started a war, so stop it, it's the will of your people. ”

"Impossible! Are you invited by those foolish people? The daimyo flatly refused the request at this moment.

Are you kidding. He spent a lot of time and money, regardless of domestic opposition, and launched a war that decided the fate of the country, and it will end with the words of the person in front of him? Recently, I got the news that the resistance forces on that island have disappeared inexplicably, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it must not be given up just like that.

"Looks like you haven't figured out the status quo yet."

The assassin's tone cooled, and a hand was placed on the Daimyo's neck. A chill came, and the daimyo was horrified to find his blood flowing down. The assassin looked into the daimyo's terrified eyes and pulled out two of the scrolls that had been written from his bosom.

"Here's the guarantee, you sign it, and I'll hand over a copy to the Fire Nation next to me. What would happen if the peace-loving Fire Nation knew that you had violated the armistice you had signed? ”

"Don't hesitate, sign it quickly, or I'll rewrite an agreement with your blood later."

Threatened by his life, the daimyo of the Tea Country bowed his head in humiliation. What he didn't know was that after the resistance on the island of Vortex no Kuni disappeared, many of the national daimyo who participated in the war were treated similarly to him. He is not the first and will not be the last.

On the sea, the left side is driving a wooden boat back to Konoha.

The wooden boat was newly built for them by the villagers of the island. It was much larger than the boat that was rented when it came, and there were many more people on board than when it came.

In the midst of this unwarranted disaster, many orphans appeared in the villages of the island. Considering that these orphans lack the ability to support themselves, the village has just been traumatized by the war and cannot fully support them. Sasuke and the others decided to go to Konoha with the orphans who were willing to leave. I believe that in peace, they can start a new life.

There are a total of twelve children who are willing to follow Konoha along, all of whom are half-grown children between the ages of eight and nine to eleven or twelve. Most of them are sad on their faces, but they are also strong and do not hesitate to take the road ahead.

Children who can make their own decisions in this situation can no longer be considered children. Growing up in blood, they are stronger and yearn for peace than their peers. If he is properly educated, he will surely become Konoha and Sasuke's precious treasure in the future.

Of course, there is one exception, and that is Meixi. Of the twelve children who got on board, she was the only one who was forcibly pulled away by Sasuke. And Meixi also has an indifferent attitude, maybe after the death of the doctor who adopted her, it doesn't matter how she should live, whether she lives or not.

At this moment, Miki was also standing quietly in front of the mast, looking into the unknown distance with her empty eyes. Hanabi, who was about the same size as her, stood by and watched her.

"What? Is there anything interesting on the sea? ”

Sasuke stood on the mast out of thin air, rolled over and jumped down, startling Hanabi. But Mei Xi didn't react at all.

"Sasuke-kun, you're back."

"Ahhh

Sasuke replied Hanabi and wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. Just before he came back with Flying Thor, he was still playing a game with the daimyo of a small country. This daimyo is different from all the soft eggs I've encountered before, and it's quite backbone. Sasuke is also not a killer, so he can only use the last resort and use illusion to get the daimyo to sign.

"Sasuke, if you do this, you will be locked up by Hokage-sama."

Kakashi still watched his "Intimate Violence" as he did when he came, ostensibly completely immersed in the adult world.

"So what's the solution, I can't let the war continue."

Hitting Ah Xiu's organization doesn't mean it's over. If the war is allowed to continue, tragedies like those of the United States and Greece will surely continue. In order to organize such a situation, Sasuke directly found the source of the war.

"Don't talk about it, it's almost time to arrive. Kakashi-sensei, don't worry about reading, help a little. ”

Hearing this, Kakashi closed the book in his hand and looked out at the sea. With the writing wheel eye, you can faintly see the unusual fluctuations on the surface of the sea.

"No problem, the kids are left to me. Just concentrate on that maelstrom. ”

"Bastard, don't say it so easily!"

Finally, it's time to return to Konoha of peace.
