Chapter 314

Chapter 314 ends

The Five Kages talks have been going on for the third day.

At nine o'clock in the morning on the third day, the third meeting officially started.

After all the participants were seated, Shiraishi took the lead to ask Chiyo, who was sitting in the sand hidden seat: "I have been thinking about it for a day. About the conditions I proposed yesterday, the agent Kazekage-dono, now you can tell me the results of the internal discussions in the Kingdom of Kaze."

Baishi went straight to the subject as soon as he opened his mouth, without any concealment.

The land in the northwestern region of the Kingdom of Wind, eighty miles north of Kazejian Castle, and the garrison power of Kazejian Castle are the fruits of victory that the Ghost Kingdom should have obtained in the War of the Kingdom of Wind.

On this matter, Baishi's attitude has been determined, and there will be no major concessions.

Chiyo must be well aware of this point.

Chiyo replied: "Yesterday, I have communicated remotely with the daimyo. Although the meeting was only half an hour short because of the communication equipment, the daimyo has already given me a clear result. Before that, I would like to ask again, is the land in the northwest region eighty miles north of Kazami Castle and the garrison right of Kazami Castle what the Kingdom of Demons is asking for?"

"That's right. In this regard, the Oni no Kokai will give up all activities related to mission commissions, and there will be no competition and conflict with Sand Hidden in the ninja business."

The entrustment of missions by the Ninja Villages of the five major countries is also a competition for the quality of ninjas to a certain extent.

During peacetime, which country receives more missions and a higher level of comprehensive missions means that country is more prosperous.

From this point of view, at present, Konoha is temporarily ahead of the rest of Shinobi Village.

The one who is most expected to surpass Konoha is Yun Yin, who is known for his strength and practical actions.

The Kingdom of Ghosts withdrew from these competitions in order to win over other countries and force the Kingdom of Winds to compromise on compensation conditions.

And the result satisfied Shiraishi.

Fourth Raikage turned from neutral to supportive attitude, and Yagura and Hokage Hizan also expressed a tendency to move, and the Kingdom of the Wind must not be able to turn a blind eye to this.

Chiyo nodded, and then said: "The Kingdom of Ghosts is indeed very courageous to give up all activities related to mission entrustment. But you must also understand that asking for the right to garrison an important city in another country is, strictly speaking, infringing on a country's sovereignty."

"That is to say, the Kingdom of the Wind still doesn't intend to agree, is it mainly to refuse?"

Baishi raised his eyebrows.

Chiyo shook his head and replied: "No, we only want to impose some restrictions on the condition of the right to garrison troops."

Baishi was thoughtful, then stared at Chiyo's face for a while, and said, "Let's listen."

"It is impossible for the Oni Nation to garrison troops in Kazami Castle forever. The reason why you put forward such a condition, if I remember correctly, is because Sand Yin's previous rude behavior made you prepare for a rainy day and feel a crisis of trust. Therefore, we can only allow the Oni Nation to garrison in Kazami Castle for a period of ten years. Moreover, the number of Oni Ninja stationed in Kazami Castle cannot exceed 500."

For a ten-year garrison right, the number of ninjas stationed in the army cannot exceed 500.

Obviously, these two restrictions have retained a certain early warning capability of the Kingdom of Ghosts, which is also within the acceptable range of the Kingdom of Wind.

"The scope of the claimed land is another forty miles from my side, that is, the land 120 miles north of Kazami Castle belongs to the kingdom of ghosts. But I will increase the period of garrison authority by five years, from ten years to 15 years of garrison authority."

After listening to Chiyo's narration, Shiraishi thought for a while, and immediately expressed his thoughts, increasing the number of years of garrison authority in Kazami Castle.

"No, up to two years."

Chiyo frowned.

"Four years."

Shiraishi said another number.

Chiyo remained silent.

Shiraishi sighed, looked at Chiyo seriously, and said solemnly: "The minimum is three years, no less."

Hearing this, Chiyo let go, hesitated for a while, then nodded, agreeing with Shiraishi's statement. The ten-year garrison period will be increased to thirteen years, and the Kingdom of Wind will cede 40 miles less land to the Kingdom of Ghosts.

As far as the entire northwest of the Kingdom of Wind is concerned, the land of forty miles cannot change anything. But being able to take back some more land is also a good thing for the Kingdom of Wind.

Anyway, Chiyo has already decided to reserve an elite sand hermit army in Kazami Castle to take strict precautions against the Oni Land and monitor every move of the garrison troops, so that there will be no mistakes like this time.

As for what will happen after thirteen years, Chiyo feels that her body may not be able to survive that time, so she can only trust the young people in the future.

For the kingdom of ghosts, you can't relax for a moment.

After seeing Shiraishi and Chiyo's concession and compromise, a greater conflict between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Wind was avoided. As the neutral party, Mifune also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In general, it ended relatively peacefully.

After the Five Kages talks, the impressions of countries regarding the Kingdom of Ghosts must have changed in other ways.

A powerful country will always be respected by other countries.

Just in this way, the kingdom of ghosts will no longer maintain the status of a neutral country like the country of iron. Countries will not allow the country of ghosts to continue to maintain the status of a neutral country.

If there is a new ninja war in the future, it will be difficult for the Oni Country, a military power, not to be involved in the ninja war.

As for whether it is good or bad, it can only be left to the parties to judge for themselves.

For now, the benefits to the Kingdom of Ghosts outweigh the disadvantages.

Obtained land and gained a reputation. Although it failed to become a big country, it already has the military strength to challenge a big country.

Thinking of this, Mifune couldn't help but think of a ninja who made him feel very regretfulSansho Hanzo.

Strength and fame are both, but born in the wrong country.

But if there is no special environment where the mountains and rivers of the Land of Rain are broken and the people's livelihood is suffering, the ninja Sanshoyu Hanzo would not be born in time.

Negotiated the terms of compensation with Chiyo, and this time the Five Kages talks have basically come to an end.

Although the finalized compensation conditions are the product of compromise and amendments between the two parties, such compensation, in a real sense, is still not good for the Kingdom of Winds.

However, the Nation of Winds, which was defeated in the frontal battlefield, is not qualified to offer more opinions. It is not easy to suppress the conditions to this point.

Otherwise, if you continue to fight on the frontal battlefield, the Kingdom of Winds may suffer even more losses.

After experiencing this, the daimyo and nobles will also increase their investment in Hidden Sand Village, and try their best to develop the military power of Ninja Village, which will become the most important thing for the country's development in the future.

Chiyo could have expected such a situation to happen.

"After the formal drafting of the next compensation agreement, let's sign it in Kazejian City. The time is set in half a month, how about it?"

The conditions have been negotiated, and Baishi doesn't mind giving the Kingdom of Wind some more time to prepare, there is no need to rush for a while.

Moreover, there are some things that need to be dealt with urgently in the Kingdom of Ghosts.

The northwest of the Kingdom of Wind is only a turning point in the future development of the Kingdom of Ghosts, not the ultimate goal.

The next development strategy of the Ghost Country is not in the big country, but in the small countries that surround the big country.

"Okay, I have no objection here."

Chiyo rubbed the center of her brows and nodded.

After negotiating the terms of compensation, the content of the following talks will not appear depressing and dignified, but light and relaxed.

After promising to sign the truce and compensation agreement in Kazami Castle half a month later, Chiyo then asked: "By the way, there is one more thing. I want to ask, are you willing to sell military weapons such as flying ninjas? We, the National Congress of Wind, will pay for them."

During the War of the Kingdom of Wind, the Kingdom of Ghosts used a variety of military weapons.

The destructive power is amazing, the artillery with an extremely long range, the flying ninja that can run across the sky, and the kunai gun with the chakra of the wind attribute, all of which have changed the original fighting mode of the ninja to a certain extent.

Although a new pattern has not yet been opened, it has become a place that countries cannot ignore.

"Oh? Is the Land of Winds willing to buy it?" Baishi smiled.

"certainly."

"There is no problem with this. Those weapons will be sold as a special commodity when they are developed."

Shiraishi nodded.

He didn't plan to hide anything for himself. He also wanted to see what kind of new changes would be brought about by the flow of those weapons into the five major countries.

Of course, the biggest possibility is that there is still no change.

Not only Chiyo, but Yu Ying also showed emotion on his face. Shiraishi smiled and said: "I understand everyone's thoughts. Cannons and Kunai guns are okay. Even the Oni Land Military Research Institute didn't produce many flying ninja tools. Therefore, I can only sell a hundred aircraft at the beginning. As for the price, I'm not a businessman, so it's hard to judge. I will let the Ziyuan Flower Merchant Association take care of this matter and give you a suitable price."

Regarding this, Chiyo and Yu Ying didn't say anything, they just nodded.

But they must have made up their minds in their hearts, and they want to persuade the daimyo to buy the new standard weapons developed by the kingdom of ghosts.

This is a great opportunity to strengthen Ninja Village's military strength, and they don't want to miss it.

Moreover, now that the Kingdom of Ghosts has gained a place in the world, it is also a dangerous signal for the daimyo of a big country, and it is very likely that they will not object.

The joyful scene made Mifune very emotional. He didn't know when such a stable relationship between countries would last.

But all in all, it's a big improvement.

The future can only be guided by the future.

After having lunch in the castle at noon, Gokage left with his guards and Anbe one after another. Shiraishi also bid farewell to Mifune, the general of the Iron Kingdom, and returned to the Oni Land with Ayane and Chiko.

The results of the negotiations have come out, and the next business cooperation and other matters can only be handled by professionals after returning to the village. There is no need for the Five Kages to stay in the Iron Country.

The second Five Kages Conference ended successfully.

But it will also usher in a new pattern in the ninja world, especially in the western part of the mainland, where there will be a tripartite confrontation, and it will no longer be dominated by wind and earth.

By defeating the Oni Land of the Wind Land head-on, you have the confidence to participate in the general trend of the ninja world.

"Not long ago, there was a message from the headquarters that the reason why Tuying hurriedly left the Five Kages Conference may have something to do with Akatsuki's activities."

Ayane said at this time.

"Xiao?"

Shiraishi was a little surprised.

"Well, getting involved with Akatsuki and making Tsuchikage leave the scene of the Five Kages Conference in a hurry can only be related to the Tailed Beast."

Ayane made her own judgment.

"In other words, has Akatsuki's operation officially started? It's faster than expected."

Baishi frowned.

Xiao will take action against the tailed beasts of various countries, it will only be a matter of time.

It's just that he didn't expect to start so soon.

Sealing the Tailed Beast requires technology and time, as well as adequate preparation.

Moreover, it is still necessary to capture tailed beasts from various countries, and the preparation time and technical power to suppress multiple tailed beasts are impossible even for the Ninja Village of the Great Country.

Containers are the problem first.

Not any ninja can be used as a container for tailed beasts.

Requires adaptability.

For example, the ninjas of the Uzumaki clan are suitable carriers for sealing tailed beasts.

If the carrier is not compatible with the tailed beast, even with the excellent sealing technique as support, it may cause the tailed beast's chakra to leak, and there will be an extreme situation where the tailed beast controls Jinchuriki.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the history of Tailed Beast Ninja Village.

Especially in the early days, countries did not have a clear concept of the seal of the tailed beast, which caused a large number of casualties.

Tailed beast-related technology was slowly researched by various countries during the first Ninja World War. During the Second Ninja World War, the sealing technology of various countries was improved again. As long as the psychology of Ninjuriki is not overly stimulated, it is rare for Ninjuriki to go berserk.

Being able to covet multiple tailed beasts, but also to control them, Shiraishi can only attribute it to the particularity of the eyes of reincarnation.

It is not surprising for Shiraishi to have that kind of eyes and any special ability.

It is said that there is also a powerful ability to resurrect the dead.

It has surpassed the conventional category of ninjutsu.

Due to the lack of actual research data, Shiraishi can't judge how strong Nagato with the eyes of reincarnation will be.

But definitely tricky.

"If Akatsuki really captured Yanyin's tailed beast, then they picked a good time to do it. Now that Tuying returns to Yanyin, there is no trace of the tailed beast's disappearance at all."

Ayane sighed like this.

"As long as Lin is well protected and no accidents happen to her, the ten-tailed beasts will not be able to recover... and individual tailed beasts cannot be combined into one body. Although it is tricky, it is not impossible to deal with it. And as Akatsuki's actions become more and more frequent, Konoha and the ninja villages will not remain indifferent. Let them contain Akatsuki."

"Don't we need to take action?"

"No, the next step is to complete the layout of the small country as soon as possible. It is best to let Akatsuki attract attention. In any case, ninja villages in various countries will not easily hand over the tail beast. At that time, we will join hands with Yakura to lead the fourth ninja world war jointly launched by Oni Nation and Kirigakure."

The garrison period of the wind country wind Jiancheng is 13 years. In terms of time, it is enough, and there is even a surplus.

The nails in the land of wind have been laid, and the land of earth, the land of thunder, and the land of fire will follow, and the nails must be pressed down one by one.

Two days later, Hizan returned to Konoha safely, and went all the way to the Hokage Building without stopping.

As the Hokage guards of the Five Kages Conference, the three of Shikahisa also followed closely and accepted the new arrangement.

The turmoil between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Wind has calmed down temporarily, but no matter how you look at it, the Kingdom of Wind will not let it go in the future. Maybe in the near future, there will still be an exchange of fire between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the Kingdom of Wind.

But these are not for Konoha to consider for the time being. After welcoming Jiraiya back, Konoha can dissolve the temporary alliance with the kingdom of ghosts.

At that time, it will not be too late to unite with Sand Yin.

After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Sand Yin urgently needs a stable and reliable ally now.

Similarly, Yan Yin can also be wooed.

The appearance of the Ghost Country broke the stable situation in the western part of the mainland, which gave Konoha a chance to win over Iwagakure.

If the three major kingdoms of fire, wind, and earth can form an alliance, the advantages of the kingdom of ghosts will disappear and will be greatly restricted.

The specific course of action will also be discussed and brainstormed in the Jnin meeting.

When they came to their office, Ri Zhan and Lu Jiu met an unexpected person, which caused a little surprise on their faces.

"Tsunade?"

"Master Tsunade?"

The inconsistencies in surprise and suspicion came from the mouths of Hizhan and Lujiu respectively.

Among the surprise, there is also a joy.

In any case, when Konoha is facing such a predicament, Tsunade's return is also a good start.

However, before waiting to ask for warmth, Tsunade walked over with a displeased face, and asked Hirazan: "Why did you revoke those arrest warrants for traitorous ninja? Why didn't you notify me in advance of such a big matter? Or, do you think this is a small matter? Do you know what kind of misunderstanding others will have on Konoha if you do this?"

If it were an ordinary traitorous ninja, Tsunade would of course not care.

But the Shiraishi three are different. Those Uchihas who have already occupied the ghost country are different from the Hyuga clan ninjas. They will cause huge hidden dangers to the village left by her grandfather's first Hokage.

Tsunade's questioning made Hirizhan and Shikahisa startled, they stared blankly at Tsunade, not knowing what to say.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my words?"

Tsunade asked, frowning.

"Well, Master Tsunade, I remember that in the kingdom of ghosts, I have notified you in advance, and you..."

Lu Jiu whispered.

"Have you been notified? When?"

Tsunade's eyes showed a hint of bewilderment. Is it because he always wins money recently and is overjoyed that his mind is not clear?

My memory is not so bad.

Now it was Lu Jiu's turn to be silent, and he also understood.

After the War in the Land of Winds, Tsunade he saw in the Land of Ghosts had a problem!

In other words, it wasn't Tsunade himself at all, but someone else pretended to be.

Also hid Haiyi's perception ninjutsu.

"Lu Jiu, you mean..."

Tsunade was not a fool, he immediately understood something, and his face became extremely ugly.

That stinky brat actually asked someone to pretend to be her to interfere with Konoha's high-level judgment! ?

"It seems that we have all been tricked, Hokage-sama, Tsunade-sama..."

Lu Jiu gave a wry smile before he realized it.

Hizan also opened his mouth, he didn't expect that his guesses about Tsunade were all misinterpretations.

Jirai is also very important to Tsunade, but Konoha's existence and Konoha's face are equally important to Tsunade.

No matter how frustrated Tsunade is, she is Konoha's ninja. In terms of blood and inheritance, she is unchangeable and will not be shaken by anyone's will. She is loyal to Konoha!

"Before we came back, Shizune and I stayed in the prison of Oni Land to ensure the safety of Jiraiya and treat his injuries. I didn't expect that this would give that stinky brat a chance to take advantage of it... Sorry, Sarutobi-sensei, I was a little thoughtless."

Tsunade sighed, she didn't expect Shiraishi to take advantage of this time difference and find someone to play him, misleading Konoha's high-level judgment.

However, if I really learned about this, what kind of choice would I make?

Tsunade didn't want to think about it anymore.

Either way, it might cost her something.

Nawaki, Broken, Orochimaru, Jiraiya... These familiar people seem to have left her.

That kind of shock and despair is also unprecedented.

Therefore, Tsunade didn't know whether Shiraishi was trying to fulfill her, or simply taking revenge on Konoha.

"It's okay, it's good to be back, it's good to be back..."

Hizan patted Tsunade's shoulder, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

The deal with the Kingdom of Ghosts has reached this point, and it is impossible to change it.

"Um."

Nodded, Tsunade did not speak.

The three of Shikahisa looked at each other, then quietly exited the room, leaving this place for Hizun and Tsunade.

Prison life is not as cruel as I imagined.

There may be Tsunade's reasons for this, so the managers in the prison take good care of him, whether it is daily life, food, or even entertainment, they will try their best to satisfy him.

This undoubtedly made Zilai very satisfied.

Apart from the small space for activities, he was not used to the cold atmosphere in the prison at first.

After getting used to it, I feel that this place is much more intimate.

Opposite is the cell of Shinoue Ninmaki.

"Hey, kid Kima from Hidden Sand Village, do you want to come and enjoy this fairy's latest masterpiece?"

Jiraiya shouted to Sand Ninja in the opposite cell.

"Master Jiraiya, my name is Maki."

Maki looked at Jiraiya slightly speechless.

How should I put it, before meeting him in person, Maki still respected the legendary Sannin very much, thinking that he was a very remarkable ninja.

However, the reality is... the other party is a pornographic novel writer, and he is famous.

At that moment, the fantasy of Sannin was completely shattered.

No matter how outsiders evaluate greatness, they can't hide the fact that the other party is an old pervert.

I told him a lot of colorful jokes these days, enough is enough, Sannin.

The illusion has been shattered.

"It's the same name. Do you want to come and enjoy it? This is a precious first draft that has not been released."

Zilai also picked up a stack of thick manuscript paper, complacent.

"Well, it's okay to take a look, it's boring anyway."

Maki coughed, and nodded unobtrusively.

That's right, he didn't want to read that kind of color novel, but because it was so boring here.

Chakra is blocked, and I can't even practice ninjutsu.

In addition to eating and sleeping every day, they are kept in captivity like pigs.

The only impression is that the food is delicious.

At this moment, a voice came over suddenly:

"Jiraiysama is really leisurely and leisurely. It seems that life here is good. In this way, I can rest assured that I have not broken my promise to Tsunade-sensei."

Wrapped in a white coat, the peculiar smell of medicine remained on the clothes, with his hands in the pockets of the white coat, Shiraishi walked over with a smile on his face.

Two hours ago, he had already returned to Ziyuan City. After a brief meeting, he came to the prison to check on Jiraiya's situation.

"Thanks to you, I'm doing pretty well here. How about it, are you eager to read the first draft of my new novel?"

Zilai also raised the stack of manuscript paper in his hand.

As expected of Sannin, he was able to write pornographic novels with a big heart in prison, easily doing things that ordinary people can't do.

Shiraishi believes that if Jiraiya devotes himself to being a writer, he may become a more remarkable figure than a ninja.

"I will not accept such a bribe."

"This is not a bribe. Proper reading can increase the interest between husband and wife. And the content is quite exciting, I swear in the name of my Sannin." Jiraiya said seriously.

"Having said that, it seems that you don't have a wife yet?"

Jiraiya's smile froze on his face, and he looked devastated.

"... After dinner later, someone will let you out. I have reached an agreement with your teacher Sandaime Hokage, and then I can let you go back to Konoha."

Baishi turned his head and left. After walking a few steps, he paused and left another sentence:

"By the way, the stack of manuscript paper in your hand can't be taken away. Don't get me wrong, I didn't want to read it, I was worried that you left some secret code on it that would endanger the kingdom of ghosts."

Increase the fun between husband and wife?

Thinking about it carefully, this is quite exciting. However, let's think about relaxing after the business is done.

After thinking about it, Baishi quickened his pace and left here.
