Chapter 116: Loess
The Land of Rain, a border town near the border between the Land of Rain and the Land of Earth.
Kirito's white clone was meeting a burly Iwa Shinobi alone in a private room at an inn.
This Iwa Shinobi is the son of the third generation of Tsuchikage Onoki.
"Mr. Hattori, are the conditions you offered too high, can just two Sand Hidden Shinobi be exchanged for resources worth enough to train twenty Shinobi? And it also comes with an S-level ninjutsu and a variety of earth escape ninjutsu, I don't think our ninja village's earth kage-sama will agree to the conditions you offer. ”
After listening to the conditions offered by Kirito, Loess said with a dissatisfied face.
"Mr. Loess, I want to correct your statement, it's not just two Sand Hidden Upper Ninja, but two Sand Hidden Elite Puppet Masters who have killed fifteen upper ninja in your ninja village in a row, and one of them is the son of the first generation of Kazekage and Chiyo, how valuable is the information they have, I don't need to say more.
In fact, I think I've already suffered a bit from what I've offered. ”
Kirito sneered, not giving in to the conditions he offered.
He had already obtained the memories of Akasha and Sharan through the Spiritualization Technique, and he knew very well how many Iwakure Shinobi the two had killed and how much of a threat the two posed to Iwakure.
In terms of the records of the two alone, if Iwain can exchange the resources of cultivating twenty upper ninjas for the two of them, it will definitely be earned.
Not to mention the information on the two of them and the puppet secret techniques they mastered, if Iwain can successfully obtain various secret information about the puppet magic and the sand concealment from the two of them, then Iwain will gain an advantage over the sand concealment in the future, greatly increasing his own chances of victory.
Therefore, Kirito asked the Iwakuin Lion for S-level ninjutsu and a variety of earth escape ninjutsu, which was also a very reasonable request.
"It seems that Mr. Hattori knows a lot of secrets from the two of them."
Hearing this, Loess asked tentatively, his eyes staring at Kirito's eyes.
Kirito only smiled at this, and did not give a clear answer.
It's just that his calm appearance has already given a clear answer in the eyes of the loess.
"I didn't expect that there are ninjas who are proficient in torture inside Yuyin."
Loess thought to himself.
He originally thought that it was impossible for Yu Yin to get any useful information from those two Sand Hidden Puppeteers, so he traded people to them in exchange for the greatest benefit, but from the current point of view, Yu Yin was afraid that he had obtained a lot of practical and useful information from the two of them.
After all, the number of Iwakushiki shinobi killed by the two is quite classified information.
In fact, these two Sand Hidden Puppeteers once secretly infiltrated the Land of Earth to carry out a secret mission, and then killed one of their Iwakuin Shinobi, which can be said to be top secret.
With Yuyin's intelligence ability, if it weren't for the two Sand Hidden Puppeteers who got this information, it would be basically impossible to know it from other channels.
"Is it possible that this guy is proficient in torture, during this time, he doesn't seem to have returned to Yuyin Village."
After all, Loess was skeptical of Yuyin's torture technique, and couldn't help but doubt Hattori Masanari in front of him.
He is now very interested in Hattori Masari, the rain and hidden shinobi, to be precise, Iwakuin Village is now very interested in Hattori Masari.
Using Hattori Masanari, a powerful rain shinobi who disagrees with Sanshoyu Hanzo's political opinions, to split the rain hide, not only the people of Konoha and Sand Hide see the possibility, but also some people in Iwakure.
The third generation of Tsuchikage Onoki expressed his strong approval of the plan proposed by the high-level to divide the Rain Hide.
Of course.
A split Rain Hide is advantageous to Iwakure, and if he can have a force in the Rain Hide by supporting Hattori Masari, it will be of great strategic importance for Iwakuin to contain Konoha and Sand Hide.
The Land Country is not very interested in the territory of the Rain Country, which is not able to produce food, but it is very clear that the Wind Country, which is severely lacking in water resources, is very interested in the territory of the Rain Country.
Once the Land of Wind annexes the territory of the Land of Rain and solves the problem of insufficient domestic water resources, the National Power of the Land of Wind will inevitably take a leap forward.
Because of the relationship between the land country and the invasion of a large number of oases that can produce food in the north of the country of wind, Iwakuin and Shayin have a feud, so naturally they must not sit idly by and watch Sand Yin swallow up Yuyin and grow, and military intervention is necessary.
However, direct military intervention in the rain is a serious burden for Iwakure.
This is because the Iwakure ninja who was born in the plateau climate of the Land of Earth fought on the soil of the Land Land and was prone to a large number of diseases due to unaccustomed water and soil, which eventually led to a large number of non-combat attrition.
Therefore, if a small amount of economic and military aid can be used to contain the sand in the rain, it is a very cost-effective thing for Iwakure.
Before coming into contact with Hattori Masanari, Onoki had sent a signal to Hanzo to support Yugakure and Yugakure to join forces, but Hanzo, who was blind and arrogant at the time, refused without hesitation, and became more and more hostile to Iwakure afterwards.
Since then, Onoki has never had the heart to support Yuyin led by Hanzo, and no longer mentions the matter of supporting Yuyin.
Now Hattori Masanari's unexpected appearance makes him see again Iwakure's hope of supporting Yugakure to contain Konoha and Sunagakure.
In addition, once the Yuyin separatist plan is successful, it can not only help the land country militarily and strategically, but also help the earth country economically.
When the time comes, the Land of Rain will once again become a dumping ground for the land of the earth's goods, which can make the land of the earth very profitable.
Due to the climate, agriculture has not been able to develop in the country of rain, so it has to concentrate on the development of industry.
With the help of its superior geographical location and the water system network extending in all directions, the products of the country of rain are very competitive, coupled with the country's focus on the development of industry, the industrial development of the country of rain is very rapid, and the industrial level is among the best among the countries in the ninja world, of which heavy industry is the pillar industry of the country of rain.
Because of the development of heavy industry, the demand for mineral resources in the country of rain is very huge, but the country of rain itself is not a country rich in mineral resources, and the special climate of the country also makes the local mining industry unable to develop, and can only be imported.
And the country of earth is the country with the richest mineral resources in the ninja world, and the output of coal and iron ranks first in the ninja world.
For many years, the Land Country was the largest exporter of mineral resources to the Land of Rain.
It's just that since Hanzo became the leader of the Rain Hide, Iwakure and Rain Hide became enemies, and the Rain Hide led by Hanzo took the initiative to cut off the normal business exchanges between the two countries, causing many mining companies in the land country to be bankrupt, which had a great negative impact on the economy of the land country.
Daimyo of Tsuchikuni has repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction with Onoki over this matter, and has used it to threaten to cut economic support for Iwakure.
Onoki didn't have much reverence for the weak daimyo, but the ninja world's one-country-one-village system had been established for a long time, and he had no ability to challenge this system for the time being, so he had to make a compromise on the surface, saying that he would settle the normal commercial trade between the land country and the rain country as soon as possible.
Onoki now also sees hope in Hattori Masanari to solve this problem.
In particular, Hattori Masasari, played by Kirito, easily captured Akasha and Sharan, two elite puppeteers of the Sand Hide, showing his invincible strength at the non-shadow level, and his confidence became more and more sufficient.
From the current point of view, this Hattori Masari's strength is very strong, the water escape ninjutsu released by the seal is strong and terrifying, and the concealment method is also very powerful, as long as he is careful enough, Hanzo will not be able to easily take him down, at most he can only be defeated, but not killed.
And judging from the current situation in the ninja world, only Iwakure has not had a bad relationship with Yugakure for the time being, and Hattori Masari has a great hope of reaching a cooperation with them Iwakure.
Therefore, Loess knew in his heart that his deal with Hattori Masanari for the capture of the sand could only succeed and not fail.
As a result, he is naturally in an extremely disadvantageous position in this negotiation.
At this time, he saw that Hattori Masanari showed a strong attitude, and he didn't intend to back down at all, and he still stubbornly pinched the gold content of the two elite puppeteers to Iwain, and he was already a little stupid, and he didn't know how to lower the price next.
In order not to ruin the deal and not leave a bad impression on Hattori Masanari, he had to take a step back and said a little helplessly: "Okay, I will report your conditions to Lord Tsuchikage-sama later, and let him make his own judgment." ”
"That's the best, Mr. Loess, I've prepared some nice food and drinks, let's enjoy them."
When Kirito heard this, he immediately knew that the deal was almost stable, and said with a smile.
A variety of earth escape ninjutsu is the same thing for Yan Yin, who is proficient in earth escape ninjutsu, and it is not very distressing to take out some of them, and it is estimated that there will be a little trouble with S-level ninjutsu.
After saying that, he clapped his hands vigorously.
Soon, the door opened, and some maids came in with some fragrant dishes.
To show his sincerity, Kirito took the lead in picking up chopsticks and eating all the dishes first.
Seeing this, Loess also boldly ate the delicious food in front of him.
A good meal of wine and food, and then the two of them praised each other, Loess felt that the relationship with Kirito had become a lot closer, and he suddenly asked, "Can you ask, how is the situation of the two puppeteers?" ”
"Don't worry, as long as Iwakuin agrees to my conditions, I guarantee that they will live well."
Kirito smiled slightly.
