I am the strongest Hokage of all time

Hasegawa Shin walked towards the village gate.

Kashiwagi and everyone in Konoha also followed.

After a while, the group arrived at the gate of Guyin Village.

I saw a group of ninjas at the gate.

Almost all of these ninjas had their heads wrapped in white cloth.

The leader was a black-haired man wearing a white robe.

These people have one thing in common.

Even wearing Sunagakure's forehead protector.

Hasegawa Shin stepped forward to greet him.

Sunagakure Village is one of the five great ninja villages along with Konoha.

Hasegawa Nobu naturally did not dare to neglect.

The leader of the black-haired man stood there and said arrogantly: "I am Monzaemon of Sunagakure Village, and I am here for the chakra metal veins."

Hasegawa believed it, "Master Kazekage didn't mention this matter to me."

Monzaemon said: "Why do I, Sunagakure, need to inform you in advance about what I'm doing?"

Hasegawa Shin explained: "Konoha is already discussing the mineral vein with my village."

Monzaemon then looked behind Nobu Hasegawa.

I happened to see Kashiwagi and Hiruzen's group.

Seeing the Konoha forehead protectors on everyone's foreheads.

Monzaemon said: "Since Konoha is also here, let's talk with the three families."

It seems that Monzaemon is bound to get the chakra metal veins.

Monzaemon was the first puppet master of Sunagakure Village.

This is not to say that he invented puppetry.

In fact, the puppet technique was developed by the Second Kazekage Samana.

Monzaemon was the first ninja to fully master the puppet technique and create his own special puppet.

The puppets he created were the Chikamatsu Ten who had a brilliant performance in the original work.

This represents the highest level of puppet making in this era.

And Monzaemon was the first ninja to use puppets as his main means of combat.

Although Samana also masters puppetry.

But Shamen's main fighting method is traditional wind escape.

And the magnetic escape that is still under development.

Therefore Samana is not really a puppet master.

It can be said that Samana invented the art of puppetry.

And Monzaemon created the Puppet Master.

Therefore, Monzaemon's status in Sunagakure is quite high.

There is a faint tendency to surpass all the elders and become the third most powerful person in Sand Hidden Village.

It’s no wonder that Monzaemon has been talking to Nobu Hasegawa in a condescending manner.

Monzaemon continued: "I, Sunagakure, must win this mine."

"Not even Konoha can stop it."

Monzaemon's attitude was very arrogant.

I don’t know what Hashirama’s attitude would be if he came.

Sunagakure's need for mineral veins has a lot to do with the rise of the puppet master.

The Puppet Master relies on puppets to fight.

The production and repair of puppets are inseparable from chakra metal.

Some precision parts of the puppet can only be made using chakra metal.

Therefore, the demand for chakra metal in Sunagakure Village increased suddenly.

Although Sand Hidden Village has many minerals.

But most of it is gold ore and ordinary iron ore.

There aren't many chakra metal mines either.

Tanigakure Village is located just east of Sunagakure.

From Sunagakure's point of view, the chakra metal mine discovered in Tanigakure Village in Kawanoguni is already within the palm of his hand.

I just didn't expect Konoha to come and come so early.

Kashiwagi stepped forward and said, "Want it, Sunagakure? Then take it based on your ability."

Monzaemon asked: "How can you rely on your own abilities?"

Kashiwagi said: "Konoha and Tanigakure have reached a sixty-four split agreement."

"If you Sunagakure wants a piece of the pie, you can only steal it from us."

Monzaemon crossed his arms, raised his eyebrows and said, "No problem."

Kashiwagi continued: "The showdown between adults will inevitably lead to real excitement. Each of our three villages will send three juniors to fight."

"Konoha's [-]% and Tanigakure's [-]% are regarded as bets."

"You Sunagakure are here to challenge Konoha and Tanigakure, three times each."

"If you win a game, you will get [-]% of your share. If you lose a game, you will give up [-]% of your share."

"If you lose all your share, you will pay with money."

"How about 100 billion taels for a [-]% share?"

The value of the veins is astonishing.

But the price is well worth it.

After all, wait until the mine is officially mined, in terms of the price of chakra metal.

The money can be earned back within a few years.

Monzaemon immediately understood the rules proposed by Kashiwagi.

They are in a state of having nothing.

Shares can only be obtained by challenging Konoha and Tanigakure.

The best case scenario is that Sunagakure's three players win all six games.

Then Sunagakure will get [-]% of the share, Konoha will only get [-]%, and Tanigakure will only get [-]%.

The worst case scenario is that Sunagakure and Sunagakure owe Konoha and Tanigakure 300 billion ryo each.

Looking at it this way, Konoha can actually do nothing to lose.

At least [-]% of the share can be saved.

If the situation is good, you can even get [-]% of the share.

The best situation for Sunagakure is only [-]%.

But Monzaemon was confident.

He didn't just come alone this time.

He also brought along three of his best disciples.

So Monzaemon agreed to Kashiwagi's proposal.

Kashiwagi looked at Hasegawa Nobu again.

The two major ninja villages agreed, so how could Hasegawa Nobu disagree.

Hasegawa Shin nodded.

Kashiwagi then said: "Okay, let me first select our Konoha ninjas."

"Hiruzen, which one of you wants to go up?"

Kashiwagi turned back to look at Hiruzen and the others.

Hiruzen and Dango stood up side by side.

Originally, Mao also figured it out.

But Kashiwagi dissuaded him with his eyes.

Shigeru is now a jounin.

If he plays, then Sunagakure has reason to send jounin to fight.

The situation was unfavorable.

Mao then retreated.

At this time, Mito Menyan stood up.

After all, they are about the same age as Hiruzen Dango, and they are also Chuunin.

Strength is also good.

The three people in Konoha are all eleven or twelve years old.

It would be difficult for Sunagakure to send out too old ninjas.

Monzaemon smiled and said, "That's just right. You three can come out too."

Two boys and a girl came out from behind Monzaemon.

The leading boy has red hair and a handsome face.

Brown eyes exude a sense of maturity that belies his age.

The other boy looked younger.

The head was wrapped in white cloth, and the boy's light purple hair could be faintly seen.

The young man stepped forward and looked at the three Hiruzen.

The last girl has a bun.

Her light purple hair and pretty face make her look very beautiful.

"Zhao, Ebizo, Chiyo, you represent our Sunagakure in the battle."

"clear."

The red-haired boy named Zha said.

Ebizo and Chiyo also said: "No problem, Master."

Hiruzen was also observing Sunagakure's three people.

Ebizo and Chiyo themselves were impressed.

But Hiruzen must have never heard of the name Cheer in the plot.

However, Cheer's red hair reminded Hiruzen of a certain person.

Red Sand Scorpion.

"It seems that this is the grandfather of the famous Red Sand Scorpion."

Hiruzen thought as he looked at the claws.

Zha also noticed Hiruzen's gaze.

He also became interested in Hiruzen.
