Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

It is naturally impossible to kill Kamikawa Aoba so easily.

In fact, Qingye has successfully integrated the chakras of the One-Tail and the Eight-Tail, and the Two-Tail is about to be integrated completely.

Even without the Kotoamatsukyo Mangekyō, his current combat power is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Now Qingye can try to condense a small tailed beast ball by himself, but this thing consumes too much chakra.

Although the essence of the tailed beast in his body was integrated, it could not be compared with those real tailed beasts that had lived for thousands of years. Things like the tailed beast jade were a bit flashy for him.

But this thing is not completely useless. Qingye has always had an idea, if he can trap Black Zetsu, and then he can directly use the Tailed Beast Ball on the other party, can he kill this Yin-Yang escape creature directly.

On the other side, Black Zetsu didn't know that Aoba had already prepared a set meal for him. He was now meeting Oonoki as Uchiha Madara's assistant.

Yumi's destruction of the Kusagakure Village was not without impact. At least this action scared the Iwagakure.

Of the five major ninja villages, Sand Village followed Konoha and became its younger brother. Kirigakure swallowed up Kumogakure and rose again.

Strictly speaking, there are only two left of the former five, Konoha and Kirigakure.

Iwagakure was the extra one, with the title of the top five, but in reality, it was already on the verge of being eliminated.

Ohnoki had been worried about his successor over the years.

As a result, the situation in the ninja world changed too quickly. Yesterday, I was still worried about the issue of succession. Today, I have to worry about whether the village can survive.

If there was only one Konoha, they could still hold on. After all, Konoha's policy seemed to be more relaxed. At least give Iwagakure some time to maneuver.

But Kirigakure is different. Kirigakure, controlled by Uchiha Madara, is now in a state of barbaric expansion.

The proceeds from the annexation of Kumogakure were soon spent on various construction projects. Uchiha Madara had no patience or time to develop the economy bit by bit.

He prefers a more direct method, plunder.

Although Kirigakure has not yet taken action against Iwagakure, it has only swept through some small ninja villages and reversely squeezed the nobles of the Land of Water and the Land of Lightning.

But Ohnoki knew that Uchiha Madara would not be patient for long. When he needed resources next time, it would be the turn of the Iwagakure Village.

After all, the current Iwagakure is the biggest piece of fat in the ninja world. There is no reason for Uchiha Madara not to come up and eat it.

Now, Uchiha Madara has blatantly come to borrow money.

That's right, Black Zetsu is now "borrowing money" from Iwagakure. Ever since he found that he couldn't keep up with Kamikawa Aoba's pace.

Black Zetsu started the same routine as Madara. To develop, you need people and money. Now you have people, but no money.

What to do? Just rob, no, borrow.

Madara was busy squeezing out the old nobles, so Black Zetsu turned his attention to Ōnoki, saying that Kirigakure was short of money and hoped that Ōnoki would sponsor them.

Ohnoki wanted to use Dust Release to turn the helper of Uchiha Madara into nothingness, but after hesitating for a long time, he still didn't dare to do it.

The shadow cast by Uchiha Madara on him was still too great.

After paying a large sum of money, he finally managed to get rid of the Kirigakure messenger. Ohnoki himself also slumped in his chair.

He felt very tired now, so tired that he felt like he couldn't hold on any longer.

At this time, he saw a document on the table. The content was that Konoha was seeking a deal for the tailed beast's chakra.

The condition given by Konoha was to exchange Deidara for the Tailed Beast's original chakra, but Ohnoki refused without a second thought.

Although he really wanted to agree in his heart, Deidara was a traitor in Kirigakure. If he had the chance, he could secretly capture him and train him again.

However, exchanging a tailed beast for a traitorous ninja with great fanfare was still too serious in terms of public opinion.

And now, the thoughts that were originally suppressed by Ōnoki arose again.

"Someone, ask Heitu to come to my office."
