The will of fire can't save the Ninja world

Chapter 198 Fire Country Daimyo, Minato, Uchiha Madara

The famous mansion of the land of fire.

The Ninja World War had just passed two days, and good news spread frequently, but the officials and guards who came in and out of the Daming Mansion were in a hurry, unsmiling, and could not see the joy of being a victorious nation at all.

On the contrary, it seemed that they were the ones who lost this time.

"Lord Hokage, this way."

The guard who led the way was hunched over, but his footsteps were fine and quick.

He spoke very lightly, as if he was afraid of disturbing anything.

Minato was wearing a Hokage robe, and his face under the bamboo hat was full of helplessness.

He had just returned to the village from the front line of Hidden Sand Village, and before he had time to arrange the affairs of the village, he was called over by the envoy of the Nation of Fire who had stayed in advance.

Being so anxious is definitely not a good thing.

The two passed through the main entrance of the Daming Mansion one after the other, passing through the luxurious and luxurious inner courtyard, not far from the private palace of the Daming.

Before approaching, there was a clear sound of porcelain breaking inside——

"The daimyo of the country of rain still has the face to come to see me?!"

"How much support I gave him at the beginning, and let him find out the scum of the Kingdom of Rain, but he didn't last for a week, so he just ran away!"

"Trash! What a fucking trash!"

"My family's Ninja Village can't control it, and its power has been stolen. He——is a disgrace among the nobles!"

"Let him go! And those warriors from the Iron Kingdom, let me go!"

Daimyo's irritable voice came out undisguised.

The guards waiting outside the palace looked at their noses and their hearts, pretending to be dead.

The guard leading the way to Minato in front, his feet were soft and his body was trembling, but he pretended not to hear anything: "Huo, Hokage-sama, daimyo is waiting for you inside, I, I will take my leave first."

After speaking, he quickly lifted the hem of his clothes and trotted around, still looking trembling.

Minato sighed.

Sure enough, calling yourself here is not a good thing.

It's just that he didn't expect that the fire country daimyo would be so excited.

It seems that the guillotine has been hung on the neck.

After a while, someone invited him in.

There are also ninjas around the fire country daimyo. Although the strength is not very high, there are still some ninjas.

Sensing the water gate outside, the ninja comforted the daimyo for a while, and then personally greeted the water gate and entered.

As a ninja, it's hard not to have a crush on Minato, who won the war.

Even if you have never seen it, you have heard the name of the yellow flash.

Also as a ninja, the servants around the daimyo know more about the gold content in it.

But it is one thing to have a good impression. After leading him in, the three ninja servants did not leave.

In the past, the treatment was not like this, but since the daimyo of the country of water was killed by the ninja of Wuyin village, no daimyo dared to trust the ninja as before, even if it was from his own ninja village.

Minato realized this, but he was not happy or angry: "Your Highness Daming."

He cupped his hands and glanced at the still angry daimyo on his face.

Daimyo's age is not too old, less than 50 years old.

But I haven't seen her for a few years, and Daimyo's black hair has been mottled, and a few strands of white can be seen.

From the perspective of hair volume, it is almost half less.

The former dense forest now has a Mediterranean tendency.

Seeing Minato, the daimyo calmed down his anger a little, and patted him on the shoulder: "This war is well done, and now Konoha's status can be called the number one in the ninja world, pulling other ninja villages by more than one level."

This is the current fact.

Minato just wanted to be humble, but noticed the indifferent eyes of the daimyo and the words of praise, his heart froze, and he said calmly: "Konoha's loss is not small, I am afraid it will take a long time to recover. And now there are many enemies outside, fleeing The power of Raikage and Uchiha Madara should not be underestimated."

Judging from the daimyo's attitude, Konoha, who stands out from the crowd now, has already made him a little afraid.

The attitude of the five major countries towards Ninja Village has always been the five watchdogs.

The five great nations compete with each other, but they are married inside and out, and their ancestors are not clear about it. It is not a life-and-death attitude.

Therefore, these guard dogs can be differentiated between strong and weak.

Even if the family dog ​​is not strong enough, the daimyo does not shy away from entrusting the task to other ninja villages to do it-from this point of view, we can know that the daimyo of the five major countries are not so afraid of each other.

So the five ninja villages are strong and weak in an orderly manner, yes, everyone restrains each other.

But the five ninja villages really have obvious outages, which is not something they are happy to see for the five daimyos.

The daimyos don't want to recall the era when they were once ruled by the original Hokage.

The first generation of Hokage led them to a new order. Of course, the two sides can be called mutual benefit, and even to put it bluntly, the five major countries have embraced their thighs, unifying the chaotic Warring States era and the separatist princes.

Their territories, their status, are thus enhanced.

It can cooperate with the first generation of Hokage, but the experience is not good.

In particular, the first Hokage redistributed power regardless of the face of the daimyo.

Back then, their parents and grandparents could bear it, after all, it was their thigh.

But the times are different now, and the five major powers don't want characters similar to the original Hokage to appear in the ninja world.

What is this kind of person doing?
Sweep them into the garbage dump of history like the princes who were defeated in the Warring States Period?

No, they will never allow this kind of thing!

Minato glanced at the three Jonin servants beside him, and sighed inwardly.

Daimyo, I'm already suspicious.

Minato thought about reforming Konoha, but he really didn't think much about overthrowing the daimyo. (After all, in modern society, they also have this system)

"Uchiha Madara. You really need to be vigilant."

When the daimyo said this, his face was a little weird, but he quickly skipped the talk and paced back and forth, "The war seems to be over now, but the chaos is far from over. You know about the kingdom of water, right?"

Minato nodded: "I know a little."

Information about the Kingdom of Water has always been on his desk.

After all, this is Uchiha Yuya's attempt.

On the Country of Rain's side, Yuye took a milder approach. At present, it seems that due to the obstruction of Yuyin Village, there has been no result.

But on the side of the country of water, it was Yu Ye's attempt to act simply and rudely.

Watergate has also been very concerned about the future development of the country of water.

Judging from the information collected so far, there is no such thing.

The Kingdom of Water didn't collapse, but it didn't prosper either.

After Goju Yagura killed the daimyo, he still maintained the original team of Suinokuni for a period of time.

At present, it is said that reforms have begun to spread certain ideas, but the most important thing is to build many schools and take over many factories arranged by the country of iron.

Education and work, none of these can see results in a short period of time.

At least two or three years, or even ten years, will be required to know whether the country of water is going the right way and whether it has any effect.

But the focus of the fire country daimyo is not on the next development of the water country.

Even, he was a little afraid to see the future of the Kingdom of Water.

Because the rise of coastal cities in the lower reaches of Xianyin Island in the Country of Iron has already explained something.

At least, they will never be as impoverished as before, or even become prosperous rapidly.

As one of the daimyos who still has some hard work in the land of fire, he has such a basic judgment.

So the current problem is before him: the country of water must not be allowed to continue to develop, and other countries must not be allowed to repeat the same mistakes!
If the people were allowed to see another better way of development, for him, for the nobles, it would be ten times, a hundred times worse than losing the ninja war!
"I heard that you have a good relationship with Uchiha Yuya?"

The daimyo stopped in his tracks, and suddenly squinted over.

Minato was silent and did not answer.

The daimyo looked at him and didn't speak for a long time.

It seemed that after weighing for a long time, the daimyo eased the atmosphere and said, "Let's not talk about those bad things abroad, let's talk about it, what should the country of fire do now. I mean, if you use a factory with division of labor like Uchiha Yuya .”

Minato thought for a while and decided to tell the truth: "The Konoha faction inspected in the past, and their clear division of labor can indeed greatly improve the efficiency of the factory. Moreover, each worker can focus on a single detail, and the learning cost will be reduced countless times. Plus The scheduling and allocation of raw materials on the Internet, each perform their duties. Taken together, it is not something that traditional industries can resist."

The daimyo raised his head and sighed: "Uchiha Yuya is indeed a genius in this respect. Reforms are carried out in reality, and the same is true in business."

He turned his head and continued to look at Minato: "Since you have inspected it, then bring him to the Daming Mansion, and I will use it as a reference later."

Minato felt faintly unhappy, but he couldn't refuse.

The daimyo was so determined that he wanted to compete with Konoha for food.

Holding the economy in your hands is like holding a dog on a leash.
Minato inexplicably thought of a sentence that Yu Ye had said unintentionally when he was in school.

That's right, from the point of view of entrusting tasks to business operations, although the Daming Mansion of the Fire Nation has no strength to compete with them, the lifeblood of the economy has always been in the hands of the Daming Mansion.

Minato wanted to take advantage of Daimyo's lack of attention to see if he could generate income for Konoha, but now it seems that he underestimated Daimyo's sense of smell in this regard.

In other words, this aspect has always been the most concerned by daimyo.

It is related to their control of Ninja Village.

For a moment, Minato didn't want to agree.

But from his childhood education, he couldn't find a reason for a while.

The daimyo, who had taken the initiative, was finally in a better mood, and sat down with the water door open and chatted a lot about the new factory.

He believes that the Kingdom of Iron still has weaknesses, such as construction costs and labor costs, and the Kingdom of Fire can definitely make a fuss about this.

Minato listened, and did not comment further.

In fact, he also observed that the workers in the Iron Country are not simply laborers.

For example, senior engineers are all students from Xianyin Island.

For example, Xianyin Island has started training workers and has stepped up related education efforts.

But now, what's the use of talking?

These have nothing to do with Konoha.
Thinking of this, Minato couldn't help being startled.

How could he have the idea that Konoha has nothing to do with the Land of Fire?
He couldn't help but sigh secretly.

This probably also explained why the fire country daimyo was so anxious.

What Yuye did in the country of iron, the country of rain, and the country of water seems to have only caused panic in other countries, and those ideas have not yet reached them.

But in fact, since killing the daimyo of the country of water, the influence of that kind of thinking has been unknowingly in everyone's mind.

Even Minato was no exception, and if it wasn't for a sudden reflection, he didn't even notice that he was affected.

It's like being a god.

As long as there is a god who dies at the hands of mortals, even if the power of the gods remains, they are no longer the inviolable existence in the hearts of everyone.

Because it has been killed.

What the daimyo said next, Minato didn't listen carefully because of his confusion.

A whole afternoon passed before it was time to leave.

But before he left, the daimyo, who was originally amicable because of business talks, suddenly stopped him: "Minato, if you want to take action against the country of iron, when do you think it is appropriate?"

Minato, who had been dazed by the daimyo's questions for a long time, suddenly came to his senses, and said in a deep voice, "At least not in recent years. Konoha, needs to recuperate."

The daimyo nodded, noncommittal, and waved him away.

After Minato left, Daimyo sat down and meditated for a long time, unable to see any emotions or anger.

After a long time, he raised his hand to signal the servant to leave as well.

The daimyo suddenly changed his face and smashed the handrail with his fist: "How many years? How many years has the iron country developed in the past few years? The sky in the country of rain is about to change, and the country of water can't wait to become a lawless place! How many years? Heh !"

"Konoha needs to rest, what a good excuse!"

"Even the current Konoha, who can stop the whole ninja world?"

"He clearly doesn't want to go! He just wants to delay!"

Panting from scolding, he picked up the cold tea and took a sip, then quickly dropped it.

In the shadow of the Daming Mansion, someone came out and jokingly said: "Didn't he say that? There are enemies like Uchiha Madara outside."

The daimyo was not surprised by the visitor, he was a little apprehensive, but he still said unhappily: "You can still make jokes at this time, as expected of you. Madara, you have expected this result a long time ago?"

The one who appeared next to the daimyo was Uchiha Madara.

He smiled and said, "Isn't this obvious? Konoha's group of people regard bondage as more important than anything else."

The daimyo sneered, "That's more important than daimyo and loyalty?"

Uchiha Madara sat down leisurely, "Obviously."

The daimyo calmed down and said after a long silence: "It seems that Konoha already has other ideas. If it were you, solving Xianyin Island would not be a problem, would it?"

Even if they had never met before, the daimyo obviously knew the story of Uchiha Madara.

After all, this person, as well as the first generation of Hokage, are the thighs of his father's generation who gained the status of the kingdom of fire, and they are the heroes who have achieved such prosperity and expanded the map several times.

Even from Konoha's point of view, Uchiha Madara is perfectly rebellious.

But in daimyo's eyes, they are all the same, just ninjas.

Compared with position, he cares more about profit.

Uchiha Madara said: "Destroying Xianyin Island is not a big problem, but the more important thing is to eliminate Uchiha Yuya, isn't it?"

In the case of the Iron Country, countless factories would go bankrupt if one star exploded.

Guessing that Uchiha Yuya was concerned about this, he began to disperse the factories and moved a lot to the country of water.

Daimyo frowned, and heard other meanings: "You mean, even you can't kill that Uchiha Yuya?"

Madara didn't shy away: "I'm an old man. Uchiha Yuya and his two women are not so easy to solve. Unless, I can return to my prime."

The daimyo heard the meaning of bargaining, restrained his unhappiness and said, "Then what do you want to do?"

Uchiha Madara tapped his fingers on the table, and said with a smile: "First of all, it is naturally a question of funding, and there is also a question of experimental research. In addition, the existence of Konoha as the two ends of the snake and mouse is also an obstacle to the fight against the Iron Kingdom, which needs to be resolved."

Hearing the words, the daimyo couldn't help hesitating: "Over there, Konoha, how far do you want to go?"

Konoha is indeed too powerful now, and it doesn't feel safe for Daimyo.

Uchiha Madara said: "At least let them have no energy to intervene in my affairs, don't worry, you won't have no ninja available. You and I are in a mutually beneficial relationship. If you give money and Konoha's information, I will naturally give you thoughts. need."

The daimyo glanced at Uchiha Madara's youthful face and nodded.

For him, there is a certain temptation to stay young forever. After all, when he is old, some things really can't be done.

But he is willing to seek skin with Uchiha Madara and Tiger, and more importantly, he values ​​Uchiha Madara's hope of eternal life.

Eternal life, against Uchiha Yuya, this is the basis for his willingness to cooperate with Uchiha Madara.

"It's easy to talk about money."

"I will arrange for people to go over to get the most detailed information about Konoha's information."
