Chapter Seventy-Four: Preparing for War
The truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish, it is impossible for Gu Shanbu Shui not to understand, but the greed of Shimura Tuanzang and the "root" organization under his command is still beyond imagination.
How many people are there in the entire Konoha Village?
For many years, there have been many dangerous ninjas imprisoned in the Konoha Village Heavy Criminal Prison, but if they can be fully utilized, it is already a very terrifying force.
Of course, many of them are not guilty of death, but are only serving their sentences in them, and will be released later.
But even the super-dangerous elements who cannot be extricated for life are not a few, and these are not enough, so how many people die in the "root" organization every year?
The loss ratio is too high!
"I hope the Major Governor can understand. In the past few decades, ninjutsu has developed by leaps and bounds, and it is not just because of the many geniuses......"
Without the "dedication" of many pioneers and trial and error, there would be no prosperity in the ninja world today.
For example, the shadow doppelganger technique, its side effects, before it was developed to the level of multiple shadow clones, I'm afraid no one would believe that this kind of auxiliary ninjutsu can actually kill people.
From the creation of the Flying Thunder God Technique between the Thousand Hands to the reproduction of this magic technique by Bo Feng Shui Gate, only God knows how many so-called "geniuses" who tried to practice in the middle have fallen into the sand.
The unsuccessful "Amphibious Ninja", and the barely successful "Heavenly Curse Seal", how many unlucky people have died silently over the years, I'm afraid Orochimaru can't figure it out.
The country of bears is under the nose of the country of fire, and if you want to say that Konoha Village can't do anything about it, the real reason is still the game of interests.
Originally, in the timeline, the country of waves was plagued by Kamito Kado like that, and in the end, the seventh class had to solve the problem, why did the Konoha ninjas go before?
It is not until today that Gu Shanbushui understands that this involves geopolitical interests.
To put it bluntly, the country of waves, which hangs alone overseas, is not easy to defend for Konoha ninjas who are not good at naval warfare, and once that small island country develops, and the merchant ships going south and north have supply points, the interests of many ports along the coast of the country of fire will be seriously damaged.
A few months ago, Kosugi Busui only slightly shocked the small country of waves, and the cargo throughput of Inaba Port dropped by 7 percent.
Don't look at this proportion is inconspicuous, the absolute economic loss is not small.
If the country of waves is not completely controlled, once it develops, it will be a thorn in the country of fire, which will not only hurt the flesh, but also make up your mind to pull him out.
This is a very important strategic fulcrum, and it should not be easily abandoned, and if it is not in your own hands, you would rather it rot than become a competitor.
The situation in the country of bears is even more complicated, there are often fog ninjas reaching out to test inside, various wandering ninja organizations fishing in troubled waters, and the "root" organization doing something there is not very conspicuous.
Not now, the Star Ninja Village, which was reorganized by the Wind Demon Clan, has established a minimum of order, the water is not so muddy, and some things are not easy to do.
"In short, if the 'root' organization wants to continue to do its previous work in the country of bears, it will definitely not work, and I won't be able to control it if I change places."
As long as it is not discovered, Gu Shanbu Shui will not have a bad relationship with Shimura Tuanzang for this reason, but with the "root" organization, Gu Shanbu Shui can't do this kind of thing.
Out of the medical treatment of Gu Shanbu Shui, the oil girl Ryoma was not annoyed because she couldn't talk, but said calmly:
"Danzo-sama also understands that there are some things that cannot be forced. This cooperation was not successful, and it did not affect the friendly relationship between Konoha Village and the Furusugi clan. In addition, we are very interested in the large quantities of precious materials that you have recently produced, and we wonder if we can obtain the right of first refusal? Price is not a problem......"
"Oh? Is this on behalf of Konoha Village, or is it a 'root' organization procurement? ”
With the taming of the mermaid group, the seabed resources that were almost impossible to exploit before have gradually filled the warehouses of the Gushan family, especially the chakra metal that flows out of the market from time to time, and it has been robbed.
"The Ronin Who Started from Douluo"
This kind of strategic material is completely a seller's market, and it is not necessarily possible to buy it with money, but now that there is a stable supply side, it is impossible for Konoha Village, which is close to the city, not to notice it.
"What's the difference?"
Regarding Gu Shanbushui's statement that he deliberately treated the "root" organization and Konoha Village differently, the oil girl Ryoma was very perfunctory.
Gu Shanbushui did not continue to ask, just assumed that the other party's statement was true.
"In principle, I agreed, and the specific price will be discussed in detail by another person. Because of the good relationship between us over the years, such a cooperation, as long as there are no accidents, is certainly no problem. It's just that I also have my own selfish ......"
After looking at the oil girl Longma who was waiting for the conditions of the ancient Shanbu Shui, the young family governor sorted out the wording and said tentatively,
"I want to buy a forbidden technique on the Book of Seals of Konoha Village......"
"It's not easy!"
Such conditions are no longer within the scope of the oil girl Ryoma.
"I would venture to ask, which forbidden technique does the young governor want? The Book of Seals contains many dangerous secret techniques, some of which have even been lost......"
"The ghouls are sealed. The Hokage four generations defeated the Nine-Tails and saved the sealing technique of Konoha Village. ”
"I have written down the conditions, and when I go back, I will report to Lord Tuanzang and let him decide."
There is a lot of chatter, what is the matter of the country of bears, it is just a bargaining chip, and what is really important is the supply chain of important war materials such as chakra metal.
Originally, it was a dirty deed that was difficult to get into the hall of elegance, even with the arrogance of Shimura Danzo, it was impossible to deliberately send a master of the level of the oil girl Ryoma to deal with it.
It's also a good thing for Furusugi Bushui to have a stable and high-quality customer, but as for whether Shimura Danzou will greatly increase his strength and threaten the Hokage's authority even more because of this, it's not a question that Furusugi should worry about.
After the oil girl Ryoma left, Furusugi Bushui took out a letter from the drawer, which had been sent from Konoha Village not long before Togakure Sunrise.
The general information is that the shadows of Konoha Village, including the "Root" organization, seem to be massively expanding their armaments, ostensibly to deal with the threat of aggressive cloud ninja.
If we relate to the increasingly bizarre activities of the Uchiha family mentioned in previous communications, we can draw a conclusion.
Konoha Village and the Uchiha family have de facto broken up.
There was no fighting, but both sides were not prepared, and there were many moderates who had not yet given up trying to mediate and try to find a common ground to make up for the relationship between the two sides.
"Uchiha is dying! This naïve guy who was betrayed by both sides in the end, with his own life, reluctantly postponed the demise of the Uchiha family for a year or two, but ......
Manpower is running out sometimes, and the end of the Uchiha family is approaching.
