After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

The land of wind.

Sand Hidden Village.

Here, in sharp contrast to the harmonious atmosphere of Konoha, the defeated Sand Village fell into chaos and anxiety.

The Third Kazekage stared at Chiyo expressionlessly. His eyes were as cold as ice, totally disregarding Chiyo's identity and status. If it weren't for her mistakes in commanding the battle, the Sand Village wouldn't have suffered such a defeat.

The anger in the Sandai Kazekage's heart had reached its peak, and he didn't even have the patience to listen to any explanation from Chiyo.

After reading the reprimand document secretly sent by the Third Tsuchikage of the Iwagakure Village, his mood had reached its worst.

At first, they thought that relying on the cooperation with the Hidden Rock Village, it would be easy to fight against Konoha. Not to mention that the sudden intervention of the Hidden Cloud Village weakened the power of the Hidden Rock Village, they, the Hidden Sand Village, invested a lot of resources and ninjas to fight against Konoha.

Now, their whole village has tried their best, but they are the first to withdraw from this war. The Third Kazekage feels extremely frustrated and blames himself. He feels that the Sand Village under his leadership is really getting worse with each generation, and his prestige has also fallen to the bottom at this moment.

As the defeated party, they must be held accountable for their actions, which means bearing huge war reparations. However, the Sand Village has already exhausted the daimyo's funding in this war, and even lost the family assets accumulated during the Second Kazekage period.

The meeting had been held three times, but there was still no final decision on the specific compensation plan. The Third Kazekage had a gloomy face. He looked at the elders who were arguing in the meeting and finally couldn't help but give a stern rebuke. The whole venue suddenly fell silent.

"Haven't you come up with a feasible plan yet?" His voice was filled with suppressed anger. The elders looked at each other, and no one dared to answer easily.

"Lord Kazekage, you are well aware of our financial situation. We really can't afford to pay too much compensation. Konoha is powerful and wealthy. Perhaps what they want is not the compensation we give. You can discuss it with the Third Hokage..."

Before he could finish his words, the table in front of the Third Kazekage had already shattered. The elder who was speaking was surrounded by a pile of iron sand, and his life was in danger. The Third Kazekage looked at him with eyes full of anger and disappointment.

"Third generation, calm down. The most urgent thing now is to determine the compensation. What's more, Oda is also an elder of the Sand Village. Even if he is wrong, you should not punish him directly."

At this time, the great elder who had fought with the Second Kazekage stood up and spoke. His words were full of authority, which stopped the Third Kazekage's impulsive behavior.

"Hmph, you still have the nerve to say that! Today is the latest day for our departure. If we can't come up with a definite compensation plan, how can we redeem our companions who are imprisoned by Konoha? Moreover, does Oda want our Sand Village to become a subsidiary of Konoha?"

There was a hint of despair and unwillingness in the voice of the Third Kazekage.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was extremely tense. The elders all bowed their heads and kept silent, thinking secretly in their hearts. They knew that the compensation issue this time was related to the future of the Sand Village and must be treated with caution. But facing such a difficult situation, they really couldn't think of any good solution.

"perhaps……"

A young voice sounded in the silent conference room, and everyone's eyes immediately turned to the source of the voice. A young man in his twenties stood up and spoke respectfully to everyone present.

"We can use the minerals as collateral, as well as the mission revenues over the next few years to satisfy Konoha's appetite."

"Rosa, Konoha is not as simple as you think. Do you think they will compromise if you sign the terms of compensation and Konoha does not get any substantial money and supplies? Is there still hope for the ninjas in Konoha's hands?"

Before the Third Kazekage could speak, the elders spoke first. They questioned Luosha's proposal, believing that it concerned the development of the Sand Village in the next few decades, and that Luosha was still young and his ideas were too naive.

"Shut up!"

The voice of the Third Kazekage interrupted the debate of the elders. He held a different opinion on Luo Sha's proposal and thought that this plan was feasible.

However, at this moment, the elders were like dogs guarding their food, which made him feel disgusted.

"Do you think that Konoha will let it go if we, the Sand Ninja, can't pay the compensation? Don't forget, the Third Hokage is known as the Ninja Hero. How can we quell Konoha's anger without paying some money?"

"Rosa, write down your proposal. You will come with me on this negotiation, and by the way, meet Watanabe Yusuke, who is about your age and defeated Chiyo."

The Third Kazekage directly bypassed the decision of the Elders and acted arbitrarily. Several members of the Elders wanted to stand up to protest, but were suppressed by the Great Elder.

He understood that the Third Kazekage at this moment was like a tiger that had fallen into a trough. Although he was at a disadvantage, he was still not someone who could be easily bullied by anyone.

"is teacher!"

Luo Sha was extremely excited because he finally got his moment of pride. He had always been suppressed by Shu Si, but for the first time he got recognition from his teacher.

At this moment, he was full of confidence and determination, ready to demonstrate his abilities in the subsequent negotiations.

On this day, Sarutobi Hiruzen led several elite teams and quietly appeared on the outskirts of the camp.

At this time, the team members were in high spirits, like proudly standing eagles.

Tsunade pushed Yusuke in a wheelchair and stood next to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The reason why Yusuke is in a wheelchair is because of the incident of Yusuke running away two days ago, so Tsunade and others decided to build him a temporary wheelchair to prevent him from being unable to bear the loneliness and escaping through the window. They are also afraid that if he gets injured again, it will directly affect his physical recovery.

"Teacher, why should I come here too?" Yusuke sat in a wheelchair, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a confused face.

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at his most proud disciple with a smile on his face, but at the same time he secretly sighed in his heart that this child seemed to only have extraordinary strength, and was not very good at other aspects. But think about it, he was still a child after all.

"Your presence can crush the morale of the Sand Ninjas. After all, this war ended because of you, and you were also present during the negotiations, which can fundamentally crush their pride," Sarutobi Hiruzen explained.

"But I have never negotiated with an enemy country, not to mention that I have never even seen it. I am really not good at this."

Yujie was eager for his teacher to let him leave. Although it was nice to leave the ward, what was the point of looking at a group of grown men?

"As for negotiating with an enemy country, you can learn slowly. Remember to be magnanimous. Since the first Hokage, we in Konoha have always emphasized convincing people with reason. Remember, watch and learn more. The rest will be handled by the teacher and Shikama."

Before Yusuke could continue asking, a team of Anbu ninjas appeared silently in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Hokage-sama, the Third Kazekage has arrived."
