To be honest, from the perspective of the Konoha ninja, Asma should not allow himself to listen to the fallacies that Shiraishi is about to say from his mouth, what is contrary to the will of fire, which is itself the will that Shiraishi represents.

However, for Ape Fei Asma, it is very necessary to know something different from the will of fire.

Because Shiraishi is right, they are all rebels.

It's just that Shiraishi prepares and practices a different path from Konoha.

And he is still only in the stage of theory and thinking, and he has not come to the answer he wants, so he will always be confused.

He knew that he couldn't let Shiraishi continue to say this, once he listened to the other party's words, it meant that he had almost no way back.

This man is an enemy who killed his brother and sister-in-law.

That's what she told herself in her heart, but when she wanted to reject the other party, Asma opened her mouth and moved her lips, but found that she couldn't say a word.

In the end, he still said, "I don't need to know the answer from the mouth of the traitor." ”

Compared to a temporary tactical retreat, Asma's current appearance is more like an extremely embarrassed escape.

He was very afraid that the big rebellious words that Shiraishi was going to say next, the so-called answer, might subvert his imagination.

So, running away is Asma's only option now.

Vacillation, both panic and anticipation.

Struggle between Konoha ninja and rebellion.

Looking at Asma's back as she fled from the wilderness, it seemed that she was planning to escape the so-called reality, but Shiraishi just shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

For a person like Asma, who is full of rebellious thoughts, it is very troublesome to come into contact with.

Even the third generation of Hokage, who is the biological father, has spent so many years and used various methods, but he has not been able to make Asma change his mind, and Shiraishi does not dare to hope that the other party can really calm down and listen to the arrangement of his stranger.

In any case, there is still a so-called brother and sister-in-law enmity between them.

With such a gap, trying to convince Asma is not an easy task in itself.

Just like Tsunade, it takes time to prove. If they can't be allowed to pray for change from the bottom of their hearts, then, even if they are pulled into their own camp, sooner or later they will rebel and rebel.

"Although Konoha is very boring now, the ninjas who belong to Konoha are not as boring as they imagined."

It's probably because I've seen too many things that are submissive, so Asma's rebellious thoughts are particularly conspicuous among Konoha leaves.

Maybe the second-generation Hokage, who had passed away at the beginning, also saw a little sign of it.

After all, he was the founder of the Ninja School Institution, weakening the ninja clan, including the Thousand Hands clan to which he belonged, and elevating the status of the commoners.

Although the change is not thorough enough, resulting in the current Konoha ninja clan is still too conservative in this regard, the other party has obviously noticed the power from another class and pays attention to development.

He was mean to the Uchiha clan, and to the thousand-armed clan he belonged to, how could he not be mean.

This kind of person is a real political figure, and if necessary, the interests of his own family can also be used to curtail, and the Uchiha clan is only a political necessity, not a simple personal vendetta.

The only pity is that the other party died at an inopportune time.

The first ninja world war changed many patterns in the ninja world.

Konoha also completely fell from the altar and became no longer high.

Of course, Asma's rebellion is not the same as the path practiced by the second Hokage.

Asma's rejection of the Hokage system that dominates the ninja village.

A country and a village, as the literal meaning is, a union of a country and a village, and from beginning to end, it is not a whole.

The path practiced by the Land of Fire and the path practiced by Konoha have never been the same thing.

Unite because of interests.

And the trend of profit is like the mercenary system needed for the survival of ninjas.

This is the core essence of a country and a village, and the nature of mercenaries has not changed since the Warring States Period.

Although Asma did not understand the principle, he clearly felt the irrationality of the system of one country and one village.

This irrationality is also the origin of Asma's rebellion.

Therefore, Asma's escape is not an important matter in Shiraishi's eyes.

If he can continue to insist on his hard-won beliefs, then, without Shiraishi speaking, he will sooner or later run back and take the initiative to inquire instead of simply escaping the facts.

If Asma's will is not so strong, Shiraishi will also treat it as if he never said anything, and will not intersect with the other party again, and can be solved as an enemy in the future.

No matter what you do, Shiraishi won't lose anything.

"What a horrible guy......"

When Asma returned to the hotel, she found that she was already in a cold sweat behind her back, panting and taking a deep breath.

Thinking back to Shiraishi's intempting words, fortunately he escaped in time just now, if he didn't do that, his current self might be bewitched.

Anyway, he was a ninja of Konoha and although he was not in agreement with the Hokage in terms of concept, he never wanted to do such a thing as betrayal.

In fact, there is no need for him to accept the bewitchment of treachery, no matter how much the other party does in this country, it will never change the fact that the other party is a traitor.

"I'm afraid of rebellious remarks, I'm really ......"

Asma shook her head with a wry smile and didn't continue.

He didn't know what the so-called answer was, but it was precisely because he didn't know that he felt scared.

If you know what the other party wants to say, then you don't feel how terrible it is.

The danger of this kind of person is not only in strength, but also in ideology.

After all, Asma knows his current self and is an outlier in Konoha's environment.

If you think about it from another perspective, you can also get a general idea of the situation that Shiraishi is facing. It's just that the stage where the other party is located may be higher, not limited to a ninja village, a country.

The fact that the country of ghosts began to meddle in the affairs of small countries proves what the other party is planning.

If that is also a kind of practice path, Asma is faintly uneasy.

What Shiraishi seeks may be beyond everyone's imagination.

"Looks like I can't stay in this country anymore......"

Asma's original plan was to stay in this country for a while, and then wait for the Fire Nation mission to negotiate with the Oni Nation to return before leaving the Oni Nation.

But now I had to change my plan of action.

I must leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

As long as you avoid each other and calm down for a while.

Asma thinks so.

Time will make you forget everything here.

◎

"It's really rare, as a fourth-generation Mizukage, do you still have the leisure to come to me for a walk at this time?"

During the time when he continued to negotiate with the missions of the five major powers, the military also came here with a special guest.

The fourth generation of the fog shadow Mizukage wolfberry Yakura.

Collusion with Shiraishi...... No, it should be said that the guys of the community of destiny.

Although the two went toe-for-tat at the Five Shadows Conference, and the relationship was very unharmonious, it was just a drama for others to see.

Another example is price gouging, where there is always a need for someone to help. Otherwise, Shiraishi alone would not be able to get what he wants from the Land of the Wind so easily.

"Don't say it, now I'm a water shadow, and I exist in name only."

I don't know if this is a complaint, Yakura sat on the sofa opposite Shiraishi and sighed deeply.

"How?"

Shiraishi raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Now Terumi has begun to contact and manage various matters in the village, and has the support of most of the elders, and in the blink of an eye, those people have betrayed me, the fourth generation of Mizukage. I haven't abdicated yet. ”

Yakura said with a wry smile.

"Whoever made you make a bad start, if those elders support you, they are afraid that one day they will lose their heads."

Shiraishi said.

"The Blood Mist Sect must be eradicated, and if the influence of the Blood Mist is not completely eliminated, then there is no point in me being the fourth generation of Mizukage."

"If only you could see it."

Do you see it?

As long as you sit in that position, you will know the beauty of power.

Yakura is no exception.

During the past three generations of Mizukage, although he also helped the three generations of Mizukage deal with government affairs, that and Mizukage's identity must be two levels of things.

But Yakura's resignation was inevitable.

In any case, the means are dishonorable, and the elders of the Fog Hidden Village, led by the Motoshi, did not agree with Yakura's coup d'état at that time, making him the fourth generation of Mizukage, and it was only because there was no better candidate to become the fourth generation of Mizukage at that time.

Yakura's ascension is a helpless move.

Now that there is a two-blooded inheritance limit and Terumi who can handle government affairs well, the Mizukage of Yakura is naturally useless.

However, the so-called betrayal, in Shiraishi's view, is just a simple complaint from Yakura.

No matter what, Yakura has also run the Fog Hidden Village for so many years, and there are many die-hard loyalists who follow him.

The existing ninja sword seven are basically Yakura's original subordinates, or the kind of dried persimmon ghost shark, and Yakura personally recruited ninjas.

The task of transferring power between the two generations of Mizukage is not something that can be done in one or two years.

If there is a situation like the third generation Hokage of Konoha and the fourth generation Hokage, things will be a little awkward.

"As an old friend, I don't know how to comfort me."

Yakura seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Isn't that what you've arranged? Moreover, in a few years, you should not lose the position of Mizukage. In a hurry, the elders of the Yuan Master probably didn't worry about it. ”

Shiraishi said.

"Indeed, now she is still a little too tender in handling government affairs, and some of my subordinates are arrogant, and if they want to hand over to Zhaomei, they still need me to operate it personally."

After all, he didn't want to be like Konoha and let Mizukage's power be dispersed, forming multiple huge regimes and creating an internal miasma.

The experience of the Blood Mist Sect is the best warning.

"That way, you'll have time to shift your energy to Akatsuki."

Shiraishi nodded.

The housework of Wuyin Village, just let Wuyin solve it by himself.

If Terumi and Yakura Masato disagree, they still need to worry about it.

But when it comes to cooperating with the country of ghosts, Terumi is also an insider, and the current country of ghosts is inseparable from the ally of the Fog Hide, and similarly, the Fog Hidden Village, which fell out with the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Water, is also inseparable from the assistance of the country of ghosts.

As long as the community of destiny between the two sides is ensured, it makes no difference whether Yakura serves as the Mizukage or Terumi serves as the Mizukage, for Shiraishi.

"I know that Xiao has already captured a tailed beast, and next, he will attack more tailed beasts."

However, Yakura does not need to worry about this matter for the time being.

Renzhuli rarely left the village in the first place, and now that the rain is in turmoil, Xiao's attention is involved, and even if he hears the traces of the tailed beast, he needs a detailed plan.

If there is no careful plan, in the face of the Fog Hidden Village or the same level Ninja Village, relying on the strength of those core members alone, even if the human pillar force is captured, it will be difficult to escape from the next pursuit.

What's more, his water shadow is a human pillar force, and he is still one of the few perfect human pillar forces in the ninja world.

If you want to take action against him, you need to consider not only the strength of Mizukage himself, but also a large number of shinobi and dark guards.

Those guards are enough to know the core members of the pot to eat.

"By that time, the ghost shark should have heard a lot of things."

"Ghost shark? I haven't been in contact with him for the time being, he just needs to help us when the time is right. By the way, what are you going to do about the matter over there in the country of waves? ”

This is the main purpose of Yakura.

As a Mizukage, he naturally wouldn't have come to Shiraishi to complain about the power strife within the fog.

Terumi was also his designated heir, and strictly speaking, this was not a power struggle.

It's just a transfer of power, which is something that he has already discussed with Yuan Shi and other foggy elders.

Otherwise, it won't be so smooth sailing to become a water shadow over the years, and difficulties are indispensable.

"Did the Daimyo of the Land of Water notice it too?"

In order to maintain the apparent union, the break between the Kirigakure and the Daimyo of the Land of Water is known only to a few people.

To outsiders, the relationship between the Kirigain and the Daimyo of the Land of Water is still as close as ever.

"It's hard not to pay attention, although I don't have a good relationship with that side, but many times, I can't help myself. After all, you still have to do some superficial work, to what extent do you plan to do it? ”

Yakura asked straight to the point.

Although the Land of Waves is closer to the Land of Fire, it is also sandwiched between the Land of Fire and the Land of Water.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Daimyo of the Land of Water not to pay attention to the affairs of the country of waves.

"To what extent? Looking at the subsequent development, it is an important testing ground, and it is also used to test the land of fire, and even all countries with a daimyo system. ”

"Is it like the current rain country?"

Although wars often break out in small countries in the ninja world, the reason for the outbreak of war is basically from the behind-the-scenes manipulation of the big countries.

"It may be a little different, but even if you fail, you can learn from it. It is important that an ambush force there can be a sharp blade to pierce the heart of the Fire Nation if necessary. ”

Yakura nodded, even if the plan of the country of waves was not successful, it could be used to cover up people's eyes and ears and cover up the second purpose.

Not only the country of ghosts, but also the small countries around the Wuyin Village, planting shadows and taking action when necessary.

"Speaking of which, there's a delicious piece of cake right now, would you like to come over and share it?"

Shiraishi asked with a meaningful smile.

Yakura raised an eyebrow, not understanding the meaning of Shiraishi's words.

"You know the alliance of merchants on the lonely island. They plan to act against the country of waves, but they have been dominated by their own greed, forgetting their duties as merchants, and thus being targeted by the country of fire. Rather than end up with the Nation of Fire, let's start first and use their wealth to enrich ourselves. ”

"The lawless merchants? I've heard of it, but in this way, the Oni Nation is once again the target of public criticism, right? ”

Yakura is not afraid of the so-called isolated island, the merchant alliance there, although there are a large number of ninjas under his command, but compared to the Fog Hidden Village, the ninjas there are simply vulnerable.

This kind of gang-like merchant organization is also very poorly disciplined, and at most it can bully a small country that does not have too strong military power.

Compared to this, Yakura is more worried that the actions of the Oni no Kuni will cause a lot of trouble.

It's not a problem to solve that group of merchants, the problem is that they have too much wealth, and they want to share the two families, which Yakura thinks is a bit unrealistic.

"I didn't say that two families eat together, but four families share it."

A smile flashed in Shiraishi's eyes.

"Four? Who else but us? ”

"The Land of Earth and the Land of Thunder, and at the same time, I will secretly contact the Earth Shadow and the Thunder Shadow to get them involved in the plan. Exclude the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire. ”

Shiraishi's smile was a little wicked.

Yakura thought about it for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's really like your style, at this time, you have to calculate them." ”

With the greedy personality of a great power, once it grasps the huge handle of the Lonely Island Merchant Alliance, it will never remain indifferent.

They are greedy, and they are more terrible than merchants.

Moreover, the deliberate exclusion of the country of wind and the country of fire will further split the alliance between the five powers, so that the country of ghosts will be more stable in the next international environment.

"If it weren't for the fact that the Land of Rain is too weak now, I would like to involve the Country of Rain as well, and find something to do for the Land of Fire then, so as not to make trouble for me all day long. Unfortunately, even if I wanted to, the Land of Earth and the Land of Thunder wouldn't allow it. ”

Because the qualifications are not equal.

The Five Great Powers recognize the force of the Oni Country, but they will not recognize the strength of the Rain Country.

Therefore, it is a bit inappropriate to involve the country of rain in the food island, and it will make the country of earth and the country of thunder think that the country of ghosts is looking down on them.

In this regard, Shiraishi can only say regret.

"Did anything happen here after I left?"

Returning to Kazuhime on a cruise ship in the port of Wave no Country, he asked one of his subordinates if there was anything worth noting during the period when he was temporarily away from Wave Country.

"It's calm on the surface, but in recent days, some unknown people have secretly infiltrated the country of waves. The exact number of people is not counted, but it is estimated that there are at least thirty people. ”

The Oni Kuni Shinobu thought for a moment and answered.

"Ninja?"

Kazuhime asked.

The Oni Country Shinobu nodded solemnly.

If it's just ordinary people smuggling in, it's not a problem worth paying attention to.

But at such a time, there are so many ninjas secretly infiltrating the territory of the country of waves, then their actions are questionable.

It is likely that the purpose of those people is to come to the land of ghosts.

The exact force is not known for the time being, and it is still under investigation.

Kazuhime nodded, indicating that she understood.

She could probably guess which side the ninjas who had infiltrated the country of waves belonged to, combined with the information she had received from the isolated island weapon merchant Miya Castle.

"Those people don't have to worry about it for the time being, and now our focus is to let the workers in Dazna build the factory as soon as possible."

"The building materials have already begun to be transported to the country of waves, and it will probably start the official construction the day after tomorrow."

Hearing Kazuhime ask about those construction workers, Oni no Kuni replied succinctly.

"At that time, the number of overseers in the past will be doubled, and the enemy in the shadows will not directly confront us, but will definitely use other aspects to contain our footsteps."

"Yes."

After enduring it in the country of ghosts, Kazuhime could finally breathe a sigh of relief and rubbed her swollen eyebrows.

I've been busy with the country of waves and the islands for a while, and I haven't had a good rest, so let's relax myself before Dazner's work starts.

After all, after the factory officially opens, it will not always be so easy.

That's when the real trouble is.

◎

"Daddy."

At Dazna's house, the panicked screams of her daughter Tsunami can be heard.

Dazna, who was reading the newspaper in the living room, put down the newspaper in his hand, looked in the direction where Tsunami ran over, and saw the other party's somewhat frightened look, so he asked suspiciously, "What's wrong, Zinami?" ”

Because he has found a new job, Dazner has been in a good mood these days.

Moreover, the number of workers recruited also met the requirements of the employer.

Although they can't break the contract halfway, after all, the contract has been signed, and it's one for each person, but the reward given by Yiji makes it impossible for them to refuse, so they don't care about the contract.

Not only will there be a high remuneration for the work, but three meals a day will also be provided on the site, which greatly saves a lot of workers' expenses.

Many of the workers were grateful to Kazuhime for giving them the job to support their families, and for Dazna, who introduced them to the job.

It is not an exaggeration to describe Dazner's current mood with the pride of the spring breeze these days.

Tsunami didn't say anything, but took out something that looked like a business card and placed it in front of Dazna.

Dazna took it, the front was white, there was nothing, and then turned to the reverse, there was a sentence on it, which was clearly reflected in Dazna's eyes, and the chill on his face made Dazna's body stiffen.

- You are not allowed to start work the day after tomorrow, otherwise your whole family will be killed!

Each font is as blood-red as blood, as if it gathers an astonishing murderous aura that makes people shudder when they see it.

Dazna couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his face, if it was just a prank, the key was the ruthless murderous aura emanating from the font, which made him, an adult, feel terrifying, and knew that he was being targeted by a very terrifying existence.

Ninja!

"Dad, what now?"

Tsunami knew that Dazna had officially accepted the commission of the eldest lady from a merchant family in the country of ghosts, and even the contract was signed in black and white, but she didn't expect that before the official start of construction, someone would send a threatening letter to her father, Dazna, not to start work.

This worries Tsunami, who always feels that their family is involved in something terrible, and that they are also the center of the vortex.

Dazna was slightly silent, to be honest, this was the first time he had encountered this kind of thing.

I didn't say anything in a panic, but I also understood that an ordinary person like myself hadn't done anything earth-shattering, and he wouldn't be targeted by an existence like a ninja.

Now that he is being targeted by ninjas, and the person who comes is not good, the problem is definitely not on his side, and the person in the dark is targeting that Miss Ichihime.

"I can't make up my mind about this matter alone, so I can only go to Miss Yiji to discuss it."

Dazna sighed and stood up.

"How about you give up this commission, Dad?"

Tsunami asked tentatively.

She is more concerned about Dazner's life than her income.

"The employment contract has been signed, and if you regret it now, you will have to pay liquidated damages."

Dazna said with a wry smile, shaking his head, although Jinami's proposal was good, but thinking of the liquidated damages written in the contract, he couldn't afford to pay it.

Don't look at the current Miss Yiji is very talkative, once these workers break the contract, whether it is to maintain their dignity or to protect their own interests, then they will show a different kind of horror to these workers.

"Tsunami, don't worry too much, Miss Ichihime has a lot of powerful ninjas under her hands, and the situation may not be the worst."

Dazner could only comfort himself with these words.

I knew that such a troublesome thing would happen, and I shouldn't have responded to this job commission in the first place.

It's just that it's too late to regret it now.

Therefore, Dazna can only bite the bullet at the moment to find a way to break the situation.
