"I didn't expect the Iron Country's sense of resistance to be so strong, and it really didn't give an inch."

In the Hokage's office, looking at the information in his hand, the expression on Tatsuma's face was a little strange.

The cloud ninja team led by Ai, after more than half a year of fighting and negotiation, finally escaped from the land of the earth, all the way from the country of Taki, to the east, wanting to return to the country of thunder through various small countries.

The first few countries were quite smooth, although a little slower, but they all tried to exchange the right of way by non-force, until the Iron Country was suddenly blocked.

As soon as the Yun Ninja troops stepped into the Iron Country, they were attacked by the warriors of the Iron Country, and they didn't even give Yun Ren a chance to talk.

Although since the Second Ninja World War, the Land of Fire has taken the lead in recognizing the status of the Land of Iron as a peaceful and independent third-party country, and the actions of each ninja village over the years have also tacitly bypassed the Land of Iron.

But everyone is just abiding by the agreement, and no one thinks that the Iron Country is really a forbidden place, even Tatsuma.

No matter how many titles the Iron Country prefix has, it is just a small country, and there is no way to compare it with a big country, but if Mifune, the leader of the samurai group, has a little brain, he will also give each other a face.

Therefore, Yun Ren's behavior of borrowing the Tao, Chen Ma felt that at most he would delay for a period of time, and at most he would negotiate in various small countries, and at most give away some benefits.

But this little bit of time is enough, after all, although Sand Ninja and Fog Ninja are both sabotaging in the Land of Thunder, they don't dare to break the net with Yunyin Village, they just keep pulling Yun Ninja's movements and get more benefits from it.

Even the two ninja villages have begun to cooperate, one is responsible for pulling the attraction firepower, the other is responsible for looting, and then switching roles again.

For more than half a year, it has almost hollowed out the background of Yunyin Village's distribution in various parts of the Thunder Country, and now Sand Ninja and Fog Ninja are even planning to withdraw from the battlefield, but. One chance away.

For example, when the four generations of Lei Ying Ai come back to negotiate, everyone will take a step back, and the two villages will sell some of the looted materials, and Yunyin Village will "generously" say that the rest are the materials owed by Yunyin Village to the two villages in the past.

Then everyone went back to their respective homes to perfectly end the armed war stage of the Third Ninja World War, Tatsuma had always thought so.

Konoha and Iwain Village only need to mediate when necessary, for example, the cloud ninja army has just returned to the land of thunder, and they will definitely have to fight with the fog ninja and sand ninja to vent their anger.

Konoha and Iwakuin only need to see the right moment and intervene to mediate before the situation escalates, not only to avoid the escalation of the war, but also to gain a good reputation.

Tatsuma has even corresponded with Onoki many times on this matter, negotiating the specific matters of mediation.

But I never expected it. The country of iron is so iron-headed, and it doesn't let Yun Ren pass.

If it was a cloud ninja army under normal conditions, no matter how iron the head of the iron country was, I am afraid it would not be able to stop it, but the cloud ninja army had just fought with the rock ninja for more than half a year, and it was a long-distance attack.

Coupled with the situation in the country of thunder, the cloud ninja troops need to maintain enough combat power to go back, so under the sum of various factors, the cloud ninja troops can't cross the blockade of the samurai group.

"This iron country has so far refused to contact technology, and it is impossible to communicate if you want to"

Chenma's first reaction was to send a letter to the Iron Country, and at the same time to make inquiries, exert appropriate pressure, after all, if the Yunnin troops can't return to the Land of Thunder, it will not benefit anyone.

But the Land of Iron has no communication interface at all, and Tatsuma can't mediate remotely, so he can either send a mission to go, or he can only go by himself.

And Tatsuma is not very optimistic about the way of the mission, the first is inefficient, and the second is that the current attitude of the Iron Country to the outside world is unclear, even if the mission passes, it may not be able to achieve the effect that Tatsuma wants.

Chenma put down the information, picked up the internal phone and dialed out, there was no need to connect at all, a golden flash flashed in the office, and the figure of the water gate also appeared in the office.

"Is there any arrangement?"

Watergate asked, but today he didn't have the same enthusiasm for work as he used to be. Absent-minded.

Chenma shook the information in his hand and said, "You should also know about the conflict between Yun Ren and the Iron Country, right?" ”

"Well, I've just read the information."

"I'm going to go over."

Chenma put down the information and said, Mizumon frowned, and asked suspiciously, "I should be okay in the past, right?" Or let the deer go for a long time, this kind of thing is more appropriate for him. ”

"I'll take the deer over for a long time, you can stay in the village and help me take care of it, after all."

Tatsuma shrugged his shoulders, and Mizumon understood, and said, "I didn't expect such a coincidence. ”

"Is the location set?"

"Well, it's already decided, and I'm going to go back to investigate it in the evening. Both the hospital and the Mu Dun laboratory are not very suitable, the former has too many people, and the latter. It's too expensive, and if we accidentally damage something, we can't afford to pay for our salary. ”

Watergate also regained some form at this time, and even started joking.

Now that Mizumon and Kushina are both paid to death, Mizumon is the Hokage's assistant, he is not like the previous Hokage's assistant Danzo, who also cultivates forces to make money for himself, only the income of the Hokage's assistant.

Kushina is also the income of the sealing class, and unless it is to make a new contribution to the sealing technique of the village, there is really no other income.

But whether it is the income of the Hokage assistant or the head of the sealing class, they are all upper-class among the ninjas, plus the bounty that the two of them received in the third ninja war, there is no problem at all in living a good life.

Of course, if the Mu Dun Laboratory is really destroyed, maybe it really can't afford to pay for it, after all, it was built at the expense of the Daimyo, and Orochimaru and Tatsuma didn't have any idea of saving money at all.

So much so that nearly ten years have passed, and the equipment in Mu Dun's laboratory is still the most cutting-edge and the most expensive in the ninja world.

Tatsuma nodded, thinking that Madara Uchiha had been solved, and Obito would not be like the original book, and the danger of Kushina's birth should be reduced a lot, but he didn't need to monitor it in real time, so he said:

"It should only be the next two or three days, just stay in the village, don't miss Naruto's birth."

Naruto's name has been decided, although Kushina is not used to seeing Jiraiya, but Jiraiya's new work has not been officially published, and Naruto is his last work, the name of the protagonist in a serious ninja biography, the meaning is still very good.

Shuimen nodded, a happy smile unconsciously appeared on his face, and teased: "Didn't you want to give gifts, so you decided to run out at this point in time?" ”

"Haha~ As far as our relationship is concerned, will you still ask me for a gift?"

"Yes."

"Haha~haha~ You go to Lujiu and let him prepare."

Tatsuma waved his hand and drove Shuimen out of his office, and he picked out a few more important documents, which needed to be arranged before he left.

Before getting off work, Lu Jiu came to report the pre-arrangement, and he had already contacted the other four ninja villages, and Ai also agreed to be mediated by Konoha, and even had someone to inform Iron Country of this information.

After listening, Tatsuma nodded and said, "Well, then let's go now?" ”

"Nope."

Lu Jiu shook his head and said, "I have to go back and talk to my wife, and then ask my mother to take care of the mother and son, and I will not be able to leave until tomorrow morning at the earliest." ”

Lujiu's child, Shikamaru, was also born half a month ago, and Tatsuma also understood this situation, nodded and said, "Okay, then set off tomorrow." ”

"Well, it's almost time to get off work now, so I'm going to go back early? By the way, buy some gifts, lest my wife won't let me go, by the way, will the gift be reimbursed? ”

Hearing this, the corners of Chenma's eyes twitched, and he said, "Don't report it." ”

"The bag that my wife likes is my salary for more than half a month, if I don't reimburse it, I don't dare to buy it, after all, now that the child is born, the cost is so big. If I don't buy it, my wife probably won't let me go. ”

In the face of Lu Jiu's suggestive threat, Tatsuma's face darkened, and then he said, "Report." ”

"Okay, then I'll go."

Lu Jiu smiled, glanced at the clock, there was still half an hour to get off work, he was even happier when he saw this, and he stole half an hour's salary, plus the money saved by buying a bag, he could change to a good set of shogi pieces.

Watching Shikaku leave, Tatsuma sorted out the information and found that the documents that needed to make his own decisions had been processed, and he also left the Hokage Building.

As for what Lu Jiu said, Tatsuma didn't believe half a word, after all, Lu Jiu's income was even higher than that of him, the Hokage, after all, Lu Jiu wore many hats, plus the profit dividends of the family business

Tatsuma has never moved into the Hokage Mansion, because he lives in the original house of Senju Kazuma, and he can go over to eat next door at any time, and Kato has already become a family cook, and he can enjoy a big meal at any time when the meal arrives.

Kato was not surprised by the arrival of Tatsuma, and said very naturally: "Tsunade and Shizune will not come back for a while, and the rope tree will take the water to carry out the mission, and the four of us will have dinner today."

If you're hungry, there's some leftover fruit over there, so you can pad your stomach first. ”

Chenma picked up the fruit and ate it, and said, "Senior Broken, are you planning to retire?" It's been a year since I saw you go to the Hokage Building to pick up a mission. ”

"When you can get me, you can arrange it."

Kato's meaning is very clear, he doesn't plan to take the initiative to carry out the mission, but if Tatsuma needs his help, he can do it at any time.

Chenma nodded and said, "Okay, there's nothing to do lately, it just so happens that the teacher has led a team to do research recently, and she also needs someone to help her deal with the trivial things of life, you can also relax and relax, and you don't have to fight and kill all day long." ”

"That's what I plan, after a while, I may go to the welfare institute for an interview, after all, the children in the clan also need some more professional ninja counseling, what do you think?"

"Well, it just so happens that the welfare institute is not short of money now, so it should be no problem to hire you, the upper ninja."

The two chatted, Tatsuma occasionally played hard, and when the meal was almost done, Tsunade also came back with mute, and after eating, Tatsuma said, "I'm going to go to the Iron Country in the next few days, so I won't come back to eat." ”

Kato was a little puzzled, but Tsunade nodded and asked, "Is it a matter of Yun Shinobi?" ”

"Well, it always feels like something is wrong."

Mifune's attitude is very strange, and with the fact that it is related to the direction of the Third Ninja World War, Tatsuma feels that it is still necessary to make a trip.

After thinking about it, Tatsuma added: "It's been a few days since Jiu Sinai gave birth, teacher, you'd better take time to follow up." ”

Although it is unlikely, Tatsuma still plans to go to another level of insurance, Tsunade nodded and replied: "Well, after all, Kushina's child can be regarded as half of our thousand hands descendant, I will pay attention." ”
