Chapter Seventy-Six: Submission of Tasks
The only information about the scorpion obtained from the underground gold exchange office was that he appeared in the land of soup and the country of craftsmen.
Although the current Sand Ninja Village is also looking for the missing person of the Scorpion, compared to the three generations of Wind Shadow, the genius puppeteer of the Scorpion is still not very important.
After receiving the information, Uchiha Yoichi set off for the country of rivers.
At this time, the country of rivers, negotiations are also coming to an end.
Because the new daimyo of the country of rivers is biased towards the country of fire, and Konoha Village is only aimed at the Sand Ninja Village, not the Rain Ninja Village, so in the negotiations between the three parties, Konoha and the Rain Ninja Village are almost on one side.
After the end of the new round of negotiations, Jiraiya and Nara Shikahisa achieved a big victory.
"Lu Jiu, now even the Rain Ninja Village is on our side, yesterday Minister Jiakang hoped that we could be tougher and kick the Sand Ninja Village out, and the three of us will form an alliance."
Jiraiya said to Nara Shikahisa that he was not very good at negotiation, and that he sat here every day purely as the confidence of Konoha Village.
After fighting Hanzo, he survived, and got the title of Three Ninja, and then completed many tasks in the ninja world and became famous; He is a strong man in his own right, and he can intimidate the Sand Ninja Village without having to speak in the negotiations.
"Minister Jiakang told me that if he can win the share of Sand Ninja Village, the Daimyo Mansion's financial support for Konoha is willing to increase by another 100 million taels."
In the previous negotiations, although the share of the Land of Wind and the Sand Ninja Village was reduced a lot, it was still possible to earn four or five hundred million taels from the Yunhe Iron Mine every year, and if the Fire Country could swallow this part as well, it would be nothing to give Konoha 100 million taels.
"Jiraiya, although one hundred million taels is more, I'm afraid the Sand Ninja Village will not give up, I want them to give up completely, unless the war is mobilized!"
After thinking about it for a while, Nara Lujiu slowly shook his head and said: "Now we have taken a big advantage, if we really kick out the Sand Ninja Village completely, I'm afraid the first one to oppose is the Rain Ninja Village, after all, Hanzo is not a fool, if only the Rain Ninja Village and Konoha are left, then Hanzo must be worried that they will be next..."
There is no need to think about this proposal at all, and the village will not agree to it, their task is to try to help the Fire Nation to gain benefits, not to use all their net worth to help the Daimyo Mansion make money.
"So, then it seems that the limit is now."
Jiraiya said with some pity: "Sand Ninja Village seems to be more anxious than us, Lu Jiu, so far the three generations of Kazekage have not come forward, what conspiracy do you think Sand Ninja Village is preparing?" ”
The Nara family has always been the military of the village, and in the Second Ninja World War, Nara Shikasuke of Nara Shikaku helped Konoha to give advice and won many victories.
Although Nara Shikaku is not yet twenty years old now, he is no longer inferior to his father in terms of intelligence, which is what Nara Shikasuke himself said.
"Jiraiya-sama, I don't know about this, there is too little information, and the reconnaissance team hasn't replied yet?"
Jiraiya shook his head and said: "There is a reply, but there is no gain, there is a team that has lost contact, I have already sent the dark department to support, and now I am afraid that the three generations of Kazekage are engaged in some conspiracy, and we have no response." ”
Nara Shikaku asked, "Jiraiya-sama, what about the Uchiha's Nakashinobi?" Didn't he have any news back? ”
"The other task teams have not gained anything, how can he have it, and Uchiha Yoichi has not been in contact with the shadows, and now I don't know where he is...."
As soon as Jiraiya finished speaking, there was a knock on the door outside.
After getting permission, he walked in, and the ninja immediately said to Jiraiya, "Jiraiya-sama, Uchiha Yoichinaka Shinobu has returned, and he said that he has completed his mission. ”
"What?"
Nara Shikahisa and Jiraiya were surprised when they heard this, and after the two looked at each other, they both felt incredible.
This mission is to find out the news of the three generations of Kazekage, and I didn't have any hope, but I didn't expect Uchiha Yoichi to complete the task.
"Check it out."
The two of them immediately set off and walked out of the house.
After coming to the hall, Jiraiya saw Uchiha Yoichi who was drinking water, so he asked in a little anxious, "Uchiha Yoichi, have you collected information about the three generations of Kazekage?" ”
"Well, is it convenient to say here?"
Jiraiya glanced at Nara Shikaku, and the latter said, "It's no problem here, Yang Yizhong Shinobi, please say it directly." ”
Uchiha Yang nodded, and then spoke: "The three generations of Kazekage are dead, and the murderer is likely to be the genius puppeteer scorpion of Sand Ninja Village. ”
"Dead, dead!?"
Jiraiya and Nara Shikaku were stunned directly when they heard the news, they felt that they had heard it wrong, so they hurriedly asked: "Yoichi Zhongnin, you just said that the third generation of Kazekage died?" ”
"yes, it's dead now!"
"The murderer .... Or the genius puppeteer scorpion of Sand Ninja Village? ”
Uchiha Yang shook his head and said: "It's just that there is this possibility, now there is a high probability that the scorpion has defected, this is my guess, but the news of the death of the third generation of wind shadows can be confirmed." ”
Jiraiya frowned and asked, "How did you collect this information?" How do you confirm that the third generation of Kazekage is really dead? ”
"The three generations of Wind Shadow used to have a red snake psychic beast named Xin Ya, the Xin Tooth Snake was a big snake from the Dragon Cave, and then the three generations of Wind Shadow betrayed and used the Xin Fang Snake to make a false merit for himself, and then Xin Ya did not appear next to the three generations of Wind Shadow.....
Uchiha Yang paused for a moment and continued: "Although Xinya was betrayed and used by the three generations of Wind Shadow, the psychic contract between the two was not dissolved, some time ago I found the Dragon Ground Cave, and asked it to use the reverse psychic technique to summon the third generation of Wind Shadow before subduing Xin Ya, but there was no response. ”
If there is no response, it means that the psychic party has died, otherwise the reverse psychic technique is generally impossible to refuse, and even if it can refuse to be summoned, the psychic party will know it, and this point is also the clearest.
"I do remember that before he became the third generation of Kazekage, he did seem to have a big snake psychic beast, but it didn't come from the Dragon Cave I don't know, Uchiha boy, so you went to the Dragon Cave for a month?"
Jiraiya asked, touching his chin.
Uchiha Yoichi took out a scroll and said: "Not only that, I also investigated the whereabouts of the scorpion, and now the Sand Ninja Village is also looking for him, but compared to the three generations of Kazekage, although the scorpion is a genius puppeteer, Chiyo's grandson, it is still a little insignificant." ”
"So, I see."
Jiraiya took the scroll and said to Uchiha Yoichi with a solemn expression: "I will confirm with the village, if necessary, you may also need your psychic beast to come forward, once the information is confirmed, you will make a great contribution." ”
