Chapter 449: Backfired
Some trivial matters, there is definitely no need for Major Governor Gushan to do it personally, as for Madara Uchiha's side, although it has not been completely negotiated, it is still possible to cooperate with Gushan Bushui's plan to put pressure on the three major psychic beast holy lands.
Controlled by others, and helpless, if he wants to continue to implement his plan, Madara Uchiha also has to be false at this time.
Just when the situation in the ninja world was generally stable, and only the country of wind was surging, at the junction of the country of fire and the country of bears, Naruto Uzumaki looked at his face a little pale with concern, but there was no major problem, and his spirit was still quite strong.
"Lustful fairy, are you really okay?"
"It's already good, but the consumption is a bit big, the chakra and mental power are seriously overdrawn, and after recuperating these days, it's fine."
Jiraiya patted his chest to reassure, but it seemed that he was too strong, and he didn't come up in one breath, and he couldn't help coughing violently a few times, and waved his hand nonchalantly in Naruto Uzumaki's suspicious gaze,
"Don't worry, drink a little more and find two geisha to accompany me, and everything will be fine."
"Your pocket money has been spent by you, how can you have the money to buy you wine, let alone invite your big sister to accompany you for wine."
"Forget it, you can't count on it."
Money or something, there are channels since they come, but it's a little troublesome, and it's more embarrassing, the dignified "toad immortal", actually worried about a few small money, it's really faceless,
"By the way, Naruto, how did you faint during the battle that day, I really can't remember?"
"I don't remember, I don't remember. However, when I was asleep, I dreamed of a huge red full moon, which was magical."
"Is there a full red moon?"
Jiraiya rubbed his chin, unable to understand the meaning,
"Forget it, so be it. You're too poor to worry about that."
"But, fairy, what's the matter with those people that can hurt you? One of them, I remember, was a pharmacist who had defected, and I hadn't seen him since he defected."
"It's related to the Otoshinobi Orochimaru, but the mystery of it, I don't know very well. It's a pity that I couldn't arrest them when something happened."
Thinking of what happened that day, I felt a cold air rise from the bottom of my heart.
Madara Uchiha's filthy soil body obviously has a lot of power left, and Jiraiya, Fukasaku Immortal, and Shima Immortal don't have too many hole cards.
Just when the situation was extremely unfavorable, the other party seemed to have encountered "trouble" and was taken away directly.
The danger of the forbidden technique is also understood, and it is not the first time that the reincarnation of the filthy earth has appeared, and the killing of the third generation of the ape flying sun slash is closely related to the fact that Orochimaru casts this forbidden technique.
In the process of use, what accidents will occur may not be completely clear to the user.
In the case of lack of preparation, Jilai also does not plan to face those dangerous people head-on.
Ninjas, you shouldn't rush to attack when you don't have an advantage in intelligence, what's more, the other party is not Orochimaru himself, just a collaborator, and even, he has defected.
It can be used, but it doesn't have to be a mortal enemy, and this is how they adjusted their perception after the loss.
"But ......"
Naruto Uzumaki asked puzzled,
"Are they that strong? I think I can easily defeat the immortals......
"The matter between ninjas, how can it be so simple, the contrast between strength and weakness is not so absolute, let alone ......
sighed, I don't know how to explain it to make it clear, Naruto Uzumaki is just a kid who doesn't even have a solid foundation, and he doesn't understand it deeply,
"Don't worry about it, just practice hard as I tell you. Also, don't call me a 'fairy......
A slap on the back of Naruto Uzumaki's head, Jiraiya laughed,
"You go buy some soju for me and come back, I'll go to the neighborhood to find out the information, and meet here at lunchtime."
Ten minutes later, in an intelligence location disguised by a Konoha ninja in the center of town, Jiraiya saw a shadow man wearing an animal mask.
"It's so bad?"
"Sand Shinobi's position is very embarrassing, if we don't support Konoha Village, they don't have the ability to interfere in any major affairs, even the Ninja Village, where the five generations of Kazekage are 'difficult to give birth, how can they have the spare energy to do superfluous things? The conservatives, centered on the Elder Body, intend to continue to control the affairs of the village, and they are dissatisfied with the radicals and reformists who are dissatisfied with them, and the centrists who are friendly to Konoha Village, but no one takes the lead in opposing and changing the status quo......
"Chiyo and Ebizo used retirement as an excuse to ignore the status quo, and in fact sat firmly in the Diaoyutai and left and right, anyway, whoever came to power in the end had to seek their support. As for the Red Sand Scorpion, that guy wants to support a human pillar force as a puppet so that he can control the overall situation. There are also the opponents of the fourth generation of the Wind Shadow, and the enemies who are dissatisfied with the rebellious scorpion of the Red Sand, it's really a mess."
I pressed my temples with a headache,
"What's Tsunade's opinion?"
The ally and the little brother are in chaos, and it is naturally impossible for the big brother to ignore it, but he can't intervene too deeply, the "Konoha Collapse Plan" has only been a year and a half, and the flame of revenge has not been extinguished, I don't know how many people want each other to die, at this time, do more wrong, do nothing, and it is easy to be despised.
The scale is really difficult to grasp.
"The meaning of the five generations, I still have a lot of hope, after experiencing the 'Konoha Collapse Plan, he is a more loyal moderate, and he has an excellent impression of Konoha Village, and the Red Sand Scorpion who supports her is the grandson of Elder Chiyo, the puppet troops of Sand Hidden Village, directly or indirectly controlled by their ancestors and grandchildren, and Ebizo has always held the control of the Sand Ninja Intelligence Department."
"Anything else, whatever? Fuyi, in particular, seems to be very prestigious, and even the surrounding places such as the country of grass and the country of rivers have his supporters."
"It's useless, the sand ninja pursues an absolutely elitist strategy, the strength of the civilian ninja is very weak, as for the armed monks, the major factions with ill intentions and difficult to unite, it can't be done."
"Looks like Tsunade has made the final decision. That...... So be it, I'm okay with that."
"The meaning of the purpose of the five generations still needs you to know, so as not to have any misunderstandings along the way."
"I know, I know, I won't go to the Land of Winds, there's nothing there."
"No, it's not like there's nothing now, Jiraiya-sama."
"Huh?"
Zilai was also stunned, and immediately reacted,
"It's true that the southeast is really lively right now, a kind of ...... It's hard to say, the prosperity in the chaos, I can't describe how that strange order came about, but there is definitely a huge force in it, which plays a pillar role. At first, I thought it was a tentacle stretched out by the Xiao organization, or a coalition of local organizations doing something, but now, it's hard to say, even Orochimaru has a share......
There is a force in the ninja world, what is it doing, and it is difficult to say which side it is, but, fundamentally, the country of fire and Konoha Village are actually happy to see it.
The Gusugi family's actions in the Land of the Wind are not a secret, although the prosperity of the southeast of the Land of the Wind is limited to a small range, but who can guarantee that over time, it will not spread to the whole country?
What would happen if that scene happened somewhere else, if the desert became an oasis and the Gobi became fertile land?
A country of wind that is not inferior to the land of fire will naturally give birth to a village that is comparable to Konoha Village, or even more powerful.
At first, Tsunade may not have reacted, but this does not mean that everyone can't see it, including Jiraiya and the like, in fact, they also tend to divide the country of wind into two, or the southeast coast is scattered into several small but clever rich countries, so that all the essence is not used by the sand ninja.
As for the way to achieve this, of course, I hope to be as peaceful as possible and not cause too much turmoil.
But the reality is that the Konoha ninja is right on all this
They are beyond the reach of the whip. Konoha Village is not yet strong enough to exert influence over such a distant place. The debt-ridden Konoha ninja is too busy to take care of himself, and in the past two years, it is estimated that he will not have time to take care of the affairs of other countries.
Unless......
"Elder Tuanzang, still don't you say anything?"
"It is said that a secret unit was sent to the area, but it was mainly through the connection with the Kosugi family that they exerted influence indirectly. Moreover, the only thing that Elder Danzang cared about was Orochimaru and Sasuke Uchiha, and he didn't say anything about the country of the wind."
What the "Root" organization is good at is not to control the situation, but to solve problems, especially those who are proficient in solving problems, and guide the situation in the southern part of the country of the wind to develop in a direction that is favorable to Konoha Village, which is not the focus of the "Darkness of the Ninja World".
"Emphasizing people but not power? That one is still so domineering. Forget it, if you can't count on it, let's wait and see what happens, and then find an opportunity to intervene."
There are Konoha ninjas in the "Akatsuki" organization who act as spies, but the "Eight Masters" and "Saga Clan" do not, and once something happens, Konoha Village doesn't know the specific situation, let alone respond in time.
Now, the danger of that land of right and wrong, with the failure of Jiraiya's temptation, no one is willing to intervene at will.
"That's it for now, I'm still focusing on training Naruto, and by the way, I'll get some information. For the rest, take a break for the time being......
Jiraiya especially wants to know, what role the Gusugi family plays in it, but unfortunately, the current Konoha ninja is not good at provoking big money owners and big creditors, after a year or two, the tense situation will ease a little, and Naruto Uzumaki will also have a little ability to protect himself, and it will be much better.
"As long as the 'Child of Destiny' is well guided, there is room for salvation in all dangers."
This is also one of the important factors that Jiraiya is not particularly anxious about the current situation, he has confidence in the Great Toad Immortal, and he is even more optimistic about Naruto Uzumaki.
-----------------
It's been a long time since anything good happened in Sand Hidden Village, and the defeat more than a year ago has made the atmosphere in the entire village extremely depressing, calm and lifeless, which is the status quo of most Sand Ninja.
It's a bit ironic that the villagers are living slightly better today than they were before the "Konoha Collapse Project".
It's not that today's sand ninja is very capable, but a lot of people have died, and the original few ninjas grabbed a task, and the matter of sharing the gratuity no longer exists, and the task demand has not changed significantly, and there are fewer competitors, and the commission has increased slightly, but it has made many people's income more.
In addition, the intervention of the Furusugi family, the large-scale demolition and construction in the Land of Wind, the investment of funds, and the influx of basic materials are also one of the important factors for the improvement of conditions in the Land of Wind and the increase in the income of Sand Shinobi.
For Konoha ninjas, sand ninjas still generally have hatred and rejection, but for the Kosugi family, it is more complicated. There is no substantive conflict between the two parties, and many families in Shayin Village directly or indirectly eat under the Gushan family, and they are more or less favorable.
It's just that a foreign force is thriving in the country of wind, which is indeed a bit embarrassing.
Fortunately, after a long time, Sand Shinobi has also gotten used to the current situation, as long as he is the owner of the money, no matter where he comes from, he needs to be respected.
As for what happened in the south of the Land of Winds, there were actually people at the top of the village who were aware of the possible risks, but without a strong leader to come forward, there was no way to integrate the multiple mountains of the Sand Ninja to deal with the "small things" thousands of miles away.
The Red Sand Scorpion, who had received a lot of information from Major Governor Furusugi, understood what was about to happen, but he didn't have the will to push for anything.
In fact, according to the development of the original timeline, I Airo has actually embarked on the fast track to becoming the fifth generation of the Wind Shadow under the condition of multiple compromises, but with the support of the Red Sand Scorpion, this matter has become a little uncertain, or rather, the pace has slowed down.
Isn't it weird?
No one supported it, it was smoother, and with a genius predecessor like the Red Sand Scorpion saying good things, it became confusing.
politics
The struggle with power is such a nonsense thing, the existence of the Red Sand Scorpion makes the "water" of Shayin Village more muddy, and it is even more difficult to form a joint force, naturally, the time for the birth of the fifth generation of the Wind Shadow will also be postponed.
And this period of time is the best operation period.
Once the wood is already in the boat, it will not be easy for the sand ninja to set things right.
In the hidden underground palace of Sand Hidden Village, the Red Sand Scorpion, whose face was full of seemingly warm but actually indifferent smiles, asked Elder Chiyo, who had been fishing in the dark river silently:
"You haven't made up your mind yet? It's been more than a year, and if it drags on any longer, Sand Shinobi will become a laughing stock in the ninja world."
"Scorpion, when did you become a good person who cared about the future of the sand ninja? I don't think that once you went to Konoha Village, you started to care about your compatriots."
Elder Chiyo said leisurely,
"You're just a prisoner who has been restricted from moving, and it's not your turn to take care of the big things in the village."
The more the Red Sand Scorpion insisted, the more disgusted the stubborn Elder Chiyo became, the more he felt that his grandson was not at ease, and he was planning some ulterior secrets, and the more he couldn't let him succeed.
My Airo is a good boy, and maybe a good wind shadow, especially for now, but if he doesn't understand the purpose of the Red Sand Scorpion, Elder Chiyo won't dare to let go easily.
The current Shayin Village really can't withstand any wind and grass, and everything is based on stability.
