Reborn Wind Shadow: Begins the Attack on the Fire Nation

The period of the Second Kazekage can be said to be the most prosperous time for the Sand Village.

As for the ninja, the Second Kazekage, Chiyo, Ebizo, and Bunpuku are all in their prime, and young people represented by the Third Kazekage and Sasori's parents are also growing strong. In addition, through the study of various secret techniques developed by Shukaku, the Sand Village feels for the first time that they have the confidence to challenge Konoha.

But in the end, the Second Kazekage's health deteriorated day by day due to years of exposure to Shukaku's chakra, Scorpion's parents were killed by Hatake Sakumo, and the Second Ninja World War ended with the Sand Village's tragic defeat, which caused the Sand Village to fall from heaven to hell in an instant.

Therefore, many people in the village today still miss the era of the second generation Kazekage.

Many of the jonin here also came from that era.

After hearing Luo Sha's words, many people looked nostalgic, and there was a hint of expectation in their eyes when they looked at Luo Sha.

Can the Sand Village really regain the prosperity of the Second Generation era! ?

Luo Sha didn't say much nonsense, because he had already said everything he could say, and it all depended on what everyone else did next.

By this time, he had said everything he could about the village's government affairs.

There is no need for these jonin to stay.

"Alright, Elder Chiyo, Elder Ebizo, Ye Cang, Yakawa, and Maki stay, the rest of you can disperse!"

"Hey!"

As the jonin left one by one, the Kazekage's office became quiet.

At this moment, the people in the office all had complicated expressions. On the one hand, they hoped that everything Luo Sha said would come true, but on the other hand, they were a little unsure.

The Sand Village is really too weak now.

Among the five major ninja villages, it can be said to be at the bottom.

This made everyone present lack confidence.

Luo Sha ignored it and just asked.

"Do you have any questions about my arrangement?"

Chiyo, Yekura and Yakawa remained silent, only Ebizo spoke in a supportive manner.

"Fengying, you arranged it very well. I have no objection!"

"Ok!"

Since no one said anything, Luo Sha took it as consent.

"Maki, now you can tell the two elders, Ye Cang, and Yachuan how much funding you have obtained in total this time?"

Maki was obviously a little excited, and he skillfully said the numbers that he had already memorized.

"Reporting to Master Kazekage, according to statistics from the Anbu, the funds obtained from this operation, in terms of pure currency, amount to 79 billion taels, which is more than our Sand Village's military expenditure for ten years. In addition, there are 1 million catties of food, which is enough for our 7900 people in the Sand Village to eat for five years. Cloth, salt, iron, sugar, and medicine can support our needs for ten years. There are also countless silver, gold, jewelry, and antiques."

Hearing this somewhat exaggerated number, the four people present were dumbfounded.

Although they had expected that the harvest this time would be considerable, they still did not expect it to be so great.

Since Luo Sha already knew these numbers, he didn't show too much surprise, but gave orders.

"Things like jewelry and antiques are of little use to us. We should transform them into items needed by the village as soon as possible. I think the nobles of our Wind Country will like these treasures from the Fire Country."

However, gold and silver are still hard currencies in this world.

"As you command, Master Kazekage!"

Maki suddenly had an inspiration and nodded excitedly.

At this point, Luo Sha glanced at the faces of the people present and asked.

"I would like to hand over these items and funds to the Anbu for management. Do you have any opinions?"

Chiyo and Ebizo didn't react, but Ye Cang and Yakawa raised their heads and frowned slightly.

As ninjas, they certainly don't care who controls the funds.

After all, sitting in this position, they will not have the problem of lacking money, but the trouble is that they represent not only themselves, but also the elders of the civilian and aristocratic factions behind them.

Just when they didn't know how to answer, Chiyo, who had been a little distracted, suddenly asked.

"Was it true that the Sandaime Kazekage was killed by Konoha's Danzo?"

This sudden topic made everyone stunned, and then Maki and Ebizo, who knew some of the reasons, changed color slightly.

Luo Sha's answer was very simple. He looked at everyone and spoke with sharp eyes.

"Sandaime-sama could only and must have been killed by Konoha's Danzo!"

Everyone present was smart and understood that for the sake of village unity, the murderer could only be Konoha's Danzo.

Chiyo also understood what Luosha meant, felt a little relieved, and looked at Luosha.

"I understand. I have no objection to your arrangement, Fengying. Besides, I am old now. You should find someone to replace me as the Fengying of the Puppet Army!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Because this means that Chiyo has decided to retire and hand over all the power in her hands to Rasa, the fourth Kazekage. This is a kind of handover between the old and new powers, and it also means that Rasa's position as the Kazekage is completely stable.

Luo Sha was actually also very surprised, but although he also wanted to control the puppet troops of the Sand Village, after thinking about it, he temporarily refused.

"No... Elder Chiyo, there is no ninja in the village who can control the puppet troops, so I still have to trouble you. In addition, in order to ensure that the funds obtained from this operation are used clearly, I also want to invite two elders to be the supervisors."

Chiyo looked at Luosha, saw his serious look, and nodded without refusing.

Everything she does now is to atone for her grandson: Scorpion.

Luo Sha has expressed his sincerity and tried his best to cover up for his grandson: Scorpion.

Chiyo agreed, and Ebizo, as her younger brother, naturally had no objection.

Now Ye Cang and Yachuan had nothing to say.

It’s really because Chiyo and Ebizo’s status in the village is too transcendent.

Compared with these two people, the elders behind them are just children and adults.

Of course, Luo Sha wouldn't go too far.

"Maki, from the funds obtained this time, take out 500 million and give them to Ye Cang and Yachuan respectively as rewards for this operation."

As for how to divide the 500 million, that is up to Ye Cang and Yakawa.

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they did not return empty-handed, and this was not a small amount.

The military expenditure that the daimyo gives to the Sand Village every year is only 600 million, which is enough to shut the mouths of those old guys behind them.

Now that the money issue has been resolved, the next issue is another one.

"The money problem has been solved. The next thing is people. The reason why Konoha is so much stronger than us is because Konoha has so many bloodline limits and secret techniques. But what do we have in the Sand Village? Apart from the magnetic escape and Ye Cang's scorching escape, I really can't think of any other power that can be mentioned. In addition, there are summoning beasts. These are all problems that our Sand Village needs to solve?"

This made the five people present frown.

As someone who has experienced this, Ye Cang said directly.

"I'm afraid this matter is not that easy. The development of secret techniques is not that simple."

Luo Sha nodded.

"That's true in theory, but is this ninja world always unreasonable?"

"what do you mean?"

Luo Sha did not hide anything and spoke directly.

"I have received intelligence that recently, the Third Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village seems to be very dissatisfied with the families of the Hidden Mist Village who have achieved their bloodline limits, and seems to be planning to take action. This is our chance for the Hidden Sand Village..."
