Chapter 324: Meeting

Chapter 324 Meeting

At the moment when the Ninja United Army was established and there were many affairs, Shikamaru, as the commander-in-chief of the Hokage and the Combined Army, did not handle government affairs in the village.

Konoha Village is nominally an armed organization under the leadership of the Daimyo of the Fire Country, and the establishment of a ninja alliance between Konoha and other ninja villages naturally needs to inform the Daimyo of the Fire Country. Master the "Black Magic. Shikamaru of the "Ten Directions" was very fast, so he was not ready to use communication equipment to talk to the daimyo, and decided to go to the capital of the Fire Country to negotiate with the other party in person.

After all, there are many things that are not convenient to talk about in person, and Shikamaru also has some unknown plans in his heart.

Accompanied by Hinata Ninji and Akido Dingji, Shikamaru came to the mansion where the Daimyo of the Land of Fire lived, and when he learned that he was coming, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire was ready.

Compared to the last emergency meeting, the meeting place arranged by the daimyo was more luxurious and spacious, and the meeting was also attended by veteran officials such as Hideo Mita, without whom the Daimyo of Fire Country would not be able to handle and understand the government affairs of the country and the ninja village at all.

"So, Konoha, Sand Hide, Fog Hide, and Iwain Village are going to form a combined army?" After Shikamaru explained the general situation of the Five Shadows meeting to the Fire Nation officials present, the Fire Nation Daimyo immediately asked, "Is there no other way?" ”

Although Shikamaru was originally to unite with other ninja villages, it was not the case that a ninja army under the command of one person was formed, and many participants, including the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, thought it was just a diplomatic agreement.

"'Akatsuki' has seven tailed beasts, and if you rely on the strength of Konoha Village alone, you can't compete with the enemy at all." Shikamaru nodded in reply.

When the Daimyo of the Fire Country heard this, he habitually opened the folding fan in his hand, covering most of his face, and frowned and said, "Isn't there you and the Nine-Tails in Konoha Village......." ”

The formation of the Ninja United Army, representing the ninja villages in which each country is in a state of hostility, is the first united front, and there will be a nominal commander-in-chief, which is a very dangerous thing for the daimyo who rely on balancing forces to maintain their position.

Imai Asatoyoshi, the daimyo of the Fire Nation, may not be a wise monarch, but as one of the biggest beneficiaries of today's world structure and system, he instinctively resists anyone or anything that might threaten his position.

Imai Asayayoshi had already begun to regret his decision at this time, he narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Shikamaru's young face, and felt a little jealous.

Shikamaru is not yet twenty years old, and he is even younger when he served as Hokage than Sarutobi, who became the third generation Hokage during the war.

Now he has persuaded the other three ninja villages to agree to unite and recognize his status as commander-in-chief, doing something that none of his predecessors have done.

Thinking of this, Imai Chaoyi's expression gradually became much more gloomy, sitting opposite him, the young man with a face that was neither humble nor arrogant was already a veritable generation of ninja, he thought that he had already looked down on Shikamaru before, but he didn't expect to underestimate the other party's energy.

As the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, Imai Asaoyoshi has not spoken for a long time, and the other officials have also kept silent, Mita Hideo saw this, and couldn't help frowning secretly, Imai Asaoyoshi is obviously unable to completely rest assured about Konoha Village and Shikamaru himself, but he shouldn't show it, so that Shikamaru also has a grudge.

"It's come to this, I don't know what the opinions of the daimyo of several other countries are?" Hideo Mita had to break the silence in the conference room with a voice and secretly mention Imai Asayoshi.

The daimyo of the other three kingdoms have not yet expressed their position, and it is not too late to make up his mind after consulting with the daimyo of the country of wind, the country of water, and the country of earth to confirm their mutual positions. Besides, if the four ninja villages are really determined to form a joint army, there is little point in Imai Asatoshi blocking it, so why be a villain?

Imai Asatoshi was slightly stunned when he heard Mita Hideo's words, he didn't understand the meaning of the other party's words, but as his elder, the high-ranking and powerful Mita Hideo had also advised him many times, and he knew that the other party's words must have deep meaning, so he didn't speak immediately.

Imai Chaoyi pondered the meaning of Hideo Mita's words, while slowly closing the folding fan, his eyelids drooped, and his face habitually put on an unfathomable look, which in his mind was the posture that a superior person should have.

Mita Hideo doesn't know how many times he has seen this demeanor of the Daimyo of the Fire Country, and Imai Asayoshi, who has had a noble status since birth and successfully took over the authority of the Fire Country from his father, has not experienced any setbacks, and his vision and experience may not be comparable to that of an ordinary ninja or a low-level official, and he can become the monarch of a country by luck rather than personal talent.

Even Hideo Mita, who studied hard since he was a child to excel and defeat one competitor after another, and was promoted here, must succumb to Imai Ayoshi, who has the shining aura of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, and it is impossible to say that he has no jealousy and reluctance at all.

It's just that today Mita Hideo looked at Imai Chaoyi's pretended unfathomable appearance, and suddenly felt extremely embarrassed and annoyed, but fortunately he was still rational and knew how to hide his emotions.

He knew that even if Imai Asatoshi was incompetent, he would not be able to resist the fact that he would not be able to surpass each other in identity in his life.

Everyone in the room, including Hideo Mita, didn't notice that the color of yin and yang under the wooden table in the conference room had changed, and a slightly darker black shadow was connecting Shikamaru with Hideo Mita's feet.

…………

Because Uchiha Obito did not attack the Five Shadows venue like in the original book and announced the start of a new ninja war, Shikamaru and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire did not have much to discuss, at least there was no plan to let the Daimyo go into hiding.

In the original book, there was the threat of "Madara Uchiha" and "Eye of the Moon", the establishment of the Ninja United Army, and the Daimyo delegated power to the ninjas, and other actions to pass it naturally - even so, the Daimyo of the Land of Water was extremely uneasy about the Fog Hidden Village - but now it is not so easy.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire did not explicitly agree or oppose the establishment of the Ninja United Army, but only vaguely dealt with the past, and thought that he would have to discuss countermeasures with the daimyo of the other three countries.

However, his attitude does not matter, Shikamaru knows that Uchiha Obito has the technology to create artificial human white absolute on a large scale, and a war of unprecedented scale is about to begin, and the daimyo cannot stay away.

Walking out of the conference room, Shikamaru made a gesture to perform "Black Magic. Shifang" returned to Konoha Village and heard someone behind him calling his name.

"Hokage-sama." Hideo Mita strode to catch up with Shikamaru, his waist was straight, his spirit was strong, and he didn't look like an old man at all.

He glanced at the Daimyo of the Fire Country, who had walked out of the conference room and left in a sedan chair, and continued to Shikamaru who had already turned around: "It's not that the Daimyo doesn't trust Konoha Village, but I'm worried that the four villages will have a gap with each other, and if they join forces, they will contain each other. ”

"I know." Shikamaru turned to look at Hideo Mita and said, "However, the union of the four villages is inevitable, and now that Konoha Village is the leader, it is a good thing for the Fire Country, I hope you can tell the Daimyo about this." ”

Seeing that Hideo Mita nodded yes, Shikamaru asked casually, "I heard that the eldest son of the daimyo was injured while playing, do you need me to take a look?" ”

Shikamaru is known to have studied medical ninjutsu under Tsunade, and although he is not known for his medical skills, he is not comparable to ordinary medical ninjas.

Hideo Mita naturally knew about Shikamaru's deeds, but when he heard this, he hurriedly refused: "Don't bother Lord Hokage, there is a doctor in the house to take care of His Highness Wako." ”

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire has three sons, the eldest son, Kazumitsu Imai, is only seventeen years old, and Kazumaru is about the same age, but in terms of ability, Kazuko Imai is naturally not as good as Shikamaru who grew from Shinobi to Hokage step by step with his own strength.

But Mita Hideo knows Imai Kazuko's character, young and vigorous, arrogant personality, because he is the eldest son of a daimyo, he knows that he will inherit the throne of the country of fire in the future, and he has not experienced setbacks, and he acts quite unscrupulously, Shikamaru and him are close in age, if Imai Kazuko is not in the right mood after meeting, he feels that his identity is noble, and he insults Shikamaru, Mita Hideo doesn't know if Shikamaru will laugh away.

Looking at Shikamaru's angular face and thinking about his deeds, Hideo Mita decided that it would be better not to take this risk.

"Yes, then I'll take my leave." Shikamaru smiled and nodded, sealed with one hand, and disappeared into thin air in front of Hideo Mita.

Seeing that there was nothing in front of him, Shikamaru's figure had disappeared, Hideo Mita couldn't help but sigh and turned to leave.
