19 Sand Hidden Village in the Eyes of Samsara
Because of the direct border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Wind, Nagato's arrival in the Land of Wind was much earlier than that of Uchiha Shisui, and after arriving in the Land of Wind, the first choice he made was not to investigate the relevant clues according to the information collected by Fog and Rain, but to sneak into the Sand Hidden Village and begin to observe the movements of the Sand Hide.
There have been so many incidents of attacking and killing other countries' shinobi in the vicinity of the country of wind, as the most important military force in the country of wind, there is no reason why the village of Sand Hidden does not know any information at all, through the information on the side of the sand hide, he can look at this emergency from a more objective and comprehensive perspective, so as not to say that there are any key mistakes because of the second-hand information in his hand.
That's how Nagato judged.
But his harvest from infiltrating the Sand Hidden Village was not very satisfactory.
Because at this moment, in the Sand Hidden Village, everyone was in danger because of the increasingly obvious signs of loss of control of the new Pillar Force of the Guardian Crane, Nagato relied on the power of the Human Dao to quietly check the memories of several Sand Hidden Shinobi, but he did not find any signs that they had paid attention to the attack and killing incident that occurred in the Land of Wind, which made him feel a considerable degree of speechlessness and helplessness.
"Just because there is something wrong with the human pillar force, the whole village is panicking, and the sand is really in decline......"
Seeing the figure of the four generations of Kazekage leaving the village in a hurry and going to report to the Daimyo of the Land of Wind, Nagato, who was sitting in a small shop that operated the special food of the Land of the Wind, shook his head and thought silently:
"According to the memories of those Shangnin, the Sand Hidden Village has now reached the point where it needs to rely on the four generations of Wind Shadow Luo Sha's magnetic escape to search for dust gold to subsidize the village's expenses, if they can't deal with the problem of human pillar power, then the funds that the Sand Hidden Village receives from the Daimyo of the Wind Country will only be further reduced, and the economic problems of the Sand Hidden Village will further deteriorate, and at that time, in order to prove their strength to the Daimyo of the Wind Country, they can only choose to wage war against the surrounding countries......"
"It's no wonder that such a declining country with internal troubles will be chosen as a stage for stirring up trouble by those behind the scenes...... If there was the same mastermind behind that series of attacks and killings, even if they knew the truth, they wouldn't even be able to take revenge on them by relying on the power of Sha Yin alone......"
While analyzing the current situation of the sand and the inhabitants of the sand and the depressed expressions on the streets, Nagato began to gradually pop up in his head:
"If we leave it alone, Sha Yin will definitely be forced to choose to transfer the contradictions outward and become the instigator of the next war because of economic problems, so if I help them stabilize the state of the human pillar, will they not be so easy to become a new source of war?"
"No, no, it's just a palliative choice, as long as Sand Hide still only uses the funds entrusted by the ninja to the daimyo of the country of Japanese wind to maintain the operation of the village, sooner or later they will all embark on the road of foreign war, even if the fog does not come to attack them, they will choose to start a foreign war in order to survive......"
Seeing that Nagato suddenly frowned and stopped his movements, the owner of the small shop couldn't help but lean over with a nervous face and asked in a low voice:
"That, guest? Is the food not to your taste? Or ......"
"Huh? Ah, that's not true, I'm just thinking about something," Nagato came back to his senses and replied to the shopkeeper's question in a calm tone, "Don't worry, boss, your food is delicious and distinctive, even if you go to other countries to open a store, you can easily make money......"
"That's good, that's good......" The shopkeeper let out a sigh of relief, looked at Nagato's young face and asked curiously, "However, listening to the accent and evaluation, are you from another country?" ”
"Well, I came to Sand Hidden Village from the Land of Rain to entrust the mission," Nagato remembered the fake identity he had obtained from Yahiko before leaving, "but it seems that Sand Hidden Village has been a little deserted lately......"
"Who's to say it isn't?" The shopkeeper sighed, sat down across from the Nagato and began to complain: "The atmosphere in the village has been very tense lately, and there are many fewer people coming to eat here, if Kazekage-sama can't make the environment in the village better, I will probably have to try my luck in other countries like those colleagues in the Land of Water." ”
Unexpectedly, he would hear such a statement from the mouth of a snack bar owner in the Land of Winds, Nagato looked him up and down in some surprise, and asked curiously, "Why do you have such an idea, uncle?" ”
"Because I've heard from guests who come to eat with me that the daimyo of the Land of the Wind has recently been very fond of a chef from the Land of Water, and has rewarded him with a lot of money just because he likes the food he makes."
The owner of the snack bar glanced at Nagato's expression that was quite fragrant, and whispered to him:
"I don't expect to be like that peer, to get the daimyo of a big country, I just think that with my skills, maybe people from other countries can also like the food of the Land of the Wind, if they can have a good impression of the Land of the Wind because of this, and if they are willing to come to the Land of the Wind to find Sand Hidden to issue a commission when they are in trouble, I should also be regarded as making some contributions to the Land of Wind and Sand Hide, right?"
"Aren't you worried about the troubles and difficulties you will encounter when you leave your homeland, uncle?"
Nagato put a spoonful of food in his mouth, which was different from his own eating habits, but there was some unusual stimulation of the delicious taste, which made him feel that the other party's idea might really work, "If you get into trouble outside, you can't find someone from Shayin to help you solve the problem......
"Everyone speaks the same language, at most there is a little difference in accent, and if you move your mouth more, you can always find a solution."
The shopkeeper stood up and said half-helplessly and half-emotionally: "There are external troubles outside, there are domestic troubles at home, and I am helpless to solve domestic problems, but if I am abroad, maybe there is still some room to play......"
After speaking, he touched his bald head a little embarrassed, and apologized to Nagato:
"I'm sorry guest, I disturbed your meal by pulling you to talk so much gossip about you......"
"It's okay, I still like the boss's statement that 'since everyone speaks the same language, then more communication can always find a way to solve the problem'......"
Nagato smiled and took out his wallet from his coat pocket, handed the cost of the meal to the boss, and then walked out of the store slowly with a snack that he could take away.
