It's been a few days since Markey arrived in Konoha Village, but there has been little progress in the negotiations.

Although he contacted some of the high-ranking officials of Konoha Village, he was very secretive about re-establishing the alliance, which made Maki deeply worried about his heavy responsibility.

The pressure on Iwain Village has always existed, and now it is just a test, but if Sand Hide Village can't get the support of Konoha Village in time, maybe the temptation will turn into a full-scale war.

Because it is not uncommon for some skirmishes to eventually detonate into major wars.

The combat power of the five ninja villages is definitely not just talking, once it is unbalanced, the ninja world war is inevitable.

Due to the high expectation of realignment, Konoha Village did not restrict the actions of Markey and the others much.

With sand and sound, stroll through the bustling streets.

"That's a lot of people!"

Yin Feng sighed, when did Shayin Village become so prosperous...... No, even half of it would be comforting.

The scars of the war are almost gone, and the villagers are in a hurry to rebuild the ruined buildings.

"The enviable ability to recover, it won't take long to make up for the loss!"

Sand said worriedly to Marchi,

"The bravery of the sand ninja is naturally not weaker than the Konoha ninja, but the comprehensive strength of the village is too far behind, and there is a tendency to get bigger and bigger!"

Markey nodded approvingly:

"Most of the damage that Sand Shinobi did to Konoha Village was focused on destroying facilities, and it didn't cause much damage!"

Because of the failure of my love for the Rawei beast, most of the Konoha villagers calmly retreated to safety.

Except for the front-line ninjas who suffered heavy losses due to the sneak attack of the sand ninja, the Konoha ninjas who reacted blocked the sand ninja's surprise attack outside the core area, and the hospitals, ninja schools and other places close to the Hokage Rock were not affected by the war at all.

"See?"

Ma Ji pointed to the pavilions and pavilions that are about to be restored, the rows of residential buildings, and the tea street where people come and go.

"As long as people are alive, there is hope, even if the entire Konoha Village is destroyed, soon they will be able to build a new Konoha Village!"

In contrast, Sand Hidden Village did not strive to consolidate its foundation like Konoha Village at all.

The whole village is getting poorer and weaker in the rush for quick success.

Otokaze and Sand's faces were a little gloomy.

After a big war, Konoha Village is about to be reborn, and Sand Hidden Village is still unable to extricate itself from the treacherous situation, but is sinking deeper and deeper, and can only hope for external forces to tide over the difficulties.

After a long silence, Markey asked in a deep voice:

"Konoha Village's preferred candidate for the fifth generation of the Hokage, hasn't it been decided yet?"

Sand replied:

"Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, is now in Konoha Village, and it should have been the desired candidate, but ......"

"But what?"

"Jiraiya himself was unwilling, but instead recommended Tsunade, who is also one of the three ninjas!"

"It's really ......"

Yin Feng smiled bitterly,

"We can't find someone who is suitable to be the Kazekage, but Konoha Village has too many alternatives for the fifth generation of the Hokage, and I don't know which one to choose...... It's so enviable! ”

"So, we need to work hard to keep going! We can't do it if we don't make it, but at least we have to wait until the next generation of sand ninja grows up! ”

As he spoke, Maki paused, and suddenly remembered something,

"The last time I talked about it, I hope to release the mask in advance, what is the attitude of Konoha Village?"

"It seems...... Not exclusive! ”

The tone was deliberate, and in concise and concise terms, he told Markey of his intention to negotiate.

"That is, can we talk? Very good, Tone Style, keep trying! We need this batch of seized sand ninja ...... very much."

The weakened desert lion must not show his chance in front of the hyenas, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Just as a few people were chatting, Shiranui Genma, who had fought with Markey, walked over.

Markey stretched out his hand and motioned for the two subordinates not to act rashly.

"Sand Shinobi Maki, the advisor of the third generation wants to meet you!"

"Is there finally a more formal meeting, we can't wait!"

Ma Ji let out a long sigh of relief, and didn't pay attention to the coldness in the tone of the ignorant fire genma,

"I don't know which advisor?"

"We'll know when the time comes!"

After speaking, I didn't know that Huo Genma turned around and walked forward.

"It's ...... What does it mean for us to go with him? You're welcome at all! ”

The sand was a little indignant, but Markey was very calm:

"It's us who ask for it! It's a little bit of nothing, let's go! ”

Follow Shiranui Genma to the Hokage's house, Otokaze and Sand are stopped outside the door, Maki pushes the door and walks in, Mito Menyan and Zhuanyu Koharu are sitting upright, waiting for Maki's arrival.

"Maki, the representative of Sand Hidden Village, sit down!"

Markey nodded in acknowledgement, then found a stool to sit on.

"Thank you to a few people who took the time to meet ......"

"The village is in ruins, and there are many affairs......"

Mito Menyan still had an old face, and said in an old-fashioned manner,

"I won't waste any time and ask straight to the point! It's okay to renew the alliance, but it's best to make it clear in advance what you want and what benefits we can get from Konoha Village......"

Mito Menyan's tone revealed made Markey overjoyed, as long as he could turn enemies into friends with Konoha Village, everything would be negotiable.

"We need war readiness support; and return a part of the tasks that originally belonged to the Land of the Wind to the Sand Hidden Village; In addition to that, I hope to release the seized Shinobi ...... as soon as possible"

"Asking for a lot!"

In particular, the issue of the division of tasks is too sensitive, which is directly related to the survival and development of each ninja village.

"What are you going to give in exchange for these things you are asking for?"

Even though the conditions of the peace talks in Shayin Village that Markey said were a little rude, Mito Menyan was still not angry, but just frowned and said,

"Sand Shinobi has been defeated and surrendered, but he wants to gain more benefits than before the war? IMHO, it's impossible for Shayin Village to come up with conditions that satisfy us right now! ”

"That's true, but if Konoha Village wants to gain a sincere ally, it shouldn't be squeezed to the point that it can't be sustained. If the last covenant hadn't been so harsh on Shayin Village, this bloody conflict would not have happened at all, so please consider it!

Sand Shinobi has no intention of being an enemy of Konoha Village, and it is already very difficult to deal with Iwain Village, if it is not for the fact that he really can't survive, he will not take risks......"

"You're bold, Markey......"

If the Shimura group was hiding here, they would have been impatient for a long time. If Markey is almost threatening, he will let the hard-line "Darkness of the Ninja World" directly close the door to peace talks.

Markey lowered his head slightly and said sincerely:

"We can't afford to be misunderstood and misjudged by our allies, so it's better to just say our thoughts clearly and let everyone know what they want!"

Zhuan Xiaochun, who had been silent, suddenly spoke:

"We know your bottom line, but Ma Ji, you must have enough strength to stick to the bottom line, does Sand Hidden Village still have the qualifications to make Konoha look the other way?"

Allies are also different from allies, why is Sand Hidden Village an equal existence with Konoha Village, and Kusanobu is just a dispensable vassal?

In other words, it is no longer so certain whether the Sand Hidden Village, which has declined to the extreme, can still support the pattern of one of the five major ninja villages.

On a hot day, the cold sweat on Markey's forehead broke out involuntarily.

Although the Sand Hidden Village is in decline, the Sand Ninja always feels that it is one of the five major ninja villages, and its due position is still very stable.

But is that really the case?

At least Konoha Village, a former ally, felt that Sand Shinobi needed to prove that he still had the strength to make others take it seriously.

Why can't Sand Hidden Village choose the fifth generation of Wind Shadow?

It's not that if you become the leader of the village, you will definitely be the wind shadow.

You can say whatever you want when you close the door, but it's really not easy to get other ninja villages to recognize that it is a "shadow" of genuine value.

If the elected leader can't convince the public, he will only become the laughing stock of the ninja world.

Just as Markey nervously thought of a strategy to refute Koharu's contempt for the village of Sunagakure, a carrier pigeon flew in through the window and landed on Mito Menyan's shoulder.

The two advisor elders frowned, and Mito Menyan untied the letter from the pigeon's lap and spread it out, looked at it, and handed it to Koharu.

"It's really interesting!"

Mito Menyan thought for a while and said:

"The captured sand ninja will be released one after another within three days! Now that we've shown our sincerity, let's hope that Shinobu will do the same! ”

"So, thank you, we will not fail to live up to the trust of our allies!"

"That's it for today, more specific, wait for the Hokage Five to come and talk to you!"

……

When Maki walked out of the Hokage's house, he was met by Sand and Otokaze who greeted him with a smile.

"Senior Maki, good news, Wenya was killed by us on the northern border!"

"Wenya? You mean......"

Ma Ji suddenly realized, no wonder the attitude of the advisor of Konoha Village suddenly became friendly, it turned out to be good news from Fuyi's side, which made Konoha Village a little more confident in Sand Shinobi.

Although Wenya is famous, his death is not a big deal in the ninja world, and what people care about is that the sand ninja who seems to be about to collapse still has the strength to be feared.

The Sand Hidden Village needs the support of Konoha Village, and the powerful Konoha Village doesn't want the Sand Hidden Village to help contain the Iwa Shinobi in the northwest corner!

Although Konoha Village is strong, Yunyin Village is not weak, and in order to curb the expansion of the aggressive Yunnin, it does need allies to share some of the pressure.

The union of Sand Hidden Village and Konoha Village has never been because of any deep friendship, but only because of the inevitable exchange of interests.

"That's great news!"

Markey smiled a rare smile of relief,

"I also have a good thing to announce here, the face armor and other compatriots are about to be released, so that the pressure on the village should be reduced a lot."

After all, sending the lower ninja to the front line is only an expedient measure, and it still has to come back from the elite of the battle-hardened ninja army to support the defense line of the huge Wind Country.
