Konoha's Shiranui Genma

"The Nation of Fire is the most powerful nation in the ninja world. We have never been afraid of war. It should be the Nation of Wind that desires peace the most, not us."

Danzo went on to say: "During the Second Ninja World War, we have already defeated the country of the wind. The third Kazekage's move is clearly begging us for peaceful coexistence. Even if we agree, it should be a gesture of charity. "

"As the leader of the Fire Nation, Hiruzen, it is really beneath your status to go to greet the Kazekage in person."

An old man with a long beard said: "It is a etiquette and attitude to welcome the Third Hokage in person. As the largest country, the Fire Country should have such a broad mind. Is it possible that the Third Hokage has to sit in the office and wait for the wind to come from afar? Is the shadow knocking on the door to ask for an audience?”

Danzo said indifferently: "It should be so."

"You" the long-bearded old man hesitated.

At this time, the old man wearing glasses said again: "If we are so impolite, it may cause a certain blow to the prestige of the three generations of Kazekage. After all, he is a faction close to Konoha. If his prestige is damaged, the fire and wind two The possibility of another war breaking out in China will inevitably increase."

Danzo snorted softly: "We shouldn't want this peace in the first place. The Fire Country lacks metal minerals, so it is time to conquer the Wind Country to make up for its shortcomings. And if the Wind Country is not included in the territory, we will face the encirclement of the four countries. The strategic disadvantage of blockage is the real day of never-ending peace."

The old woman before was a little angry: "Have you ever thought about how many families the war will destroy, Danzo?"

"I have not only thought about it, I have lived it, but I still believe that war is completely necessary," Danzo said.

He then looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hiruzhan, I still insist on my opinion. You should not greet the Third Kazekage in person."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi was silent for a while: "Mate Yan, what do you think?"

The old man wearing glasses thought for a while: "It's better to wait for Kazekage to come near the village, and Sandaime to greet you later. It's a compromise."

"No." Danzo said stubbornly, "No matter what, the Hokage should not go out to greet him in person."

"Don't be so stubborn, Danzo. You should still have the most basic etiquette."

"I don't agree with Danzo either."

"I disagree."

Several people in the conference room objected.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly: "Duanzo, what are your thoughts? If you are going to humiliate the Kazekage in terms of etiquette, I will not agree."

Danzo was silent for a moment after hearing this: "Hiruzan"

"Um"

Danzo shook his head, and seemed to have changed his mind: "Forget it, since that's the case, I advocate letting people other than Hokage meet Kazekage, such as Sagumo, or Jiraiya and the others. They are all famous Konoha ninjas , and it’s not a disgrace to the identity of the Third Kazekage.”

"Sakumo severely injured Sunagakure in the Second Ninja War. I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate to let him go," someone said.

Danzo glanced at him, and said lightly: "No, he is the most suitable candidate. If Sauno hadn't severely damaged the main combat faction of Sagakure, the third Kazekage would probably still be emptied by Chiyo and Ebizo. .”

"In the entire Konoha Village, the third Kazekage should be most grateful to Saun."

Hearing this, several old men and women in the conference room couldn't help but look at each other and fell silent for a while.

Sarutobi Hiruzen thought for a while and said, "Do you have any other opinions on Danzo's suggestion of letting Sakumo go to meet the Third Kazekage?"

Seeing that everyone was silent, he nodded: "Since there is no opinion, let's make this decision. When Kazekage enters the territory of Fire Country, Hatake Saun will lead a team to meet him."

Hearing this, the corner of Danzo's mouth evoked a faint smile that was hard for others to detect.

"About specific alliance matters"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi was about to say more, Danzo interjected again: "By the way, add one or two people from the Uchiha clan to the welcoming team, such as the special ninja Uchiha who is close to Zuo Yun, I Thinking this way is more conducive to uniting the Uchiha clan."

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned slightly, but didn't think much about it and nodded immediately:

"it is good."

A few days later, in the western part of the Fire Country.

Hatake Sagumo led several ninjas through the forest quickly, all the way to the west, the dense forest continued to recede.

For a moment, the person closest to Hatake Sagumo was Uchiha Yi with long flowing hair. She said: "Captain Sagumo, let's take a short rest."

Hatake Saunun thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay."

Several ninjas stopped walking immediately, found an open space among the trees, sat around to rest, and chatted a few words from time to time.

“I don’t know where the Third Kazekage’s team is now,” one of the team members said.

Hatake Saun sat leaning against a tree, folded his hands in front of him, and said with a calm expression, "I have already entered the Land of Fire, but we should arrive at the scheduled location a little earlier than them."

"I really didn't expect that Sunagakure's attitude suddenly became so weak. I originally thought there was going to be a war." Uchiha Yi suddenly sighed.

Hatake Sauno glanced at her and said with a smile: "Why, do you want to start a war?"

Uchiha Yi said: "Don't you hope, Captain Saun? I think if there is another war, the Fire Country can completely conquer the Wind Country."

At this time, a tall and thin young man suddenly stood up: "Captain, I'm going to take a pee."

"Yes." Hatake Zuoun nodded, and then remained silent for a long time, seeming to recall some past events.

"I don't want to." Finally he shook his head, "My wife died in the war, and Kakashi almost died in the same way."

"Your son," Uchiha blinked, "he probably hasn't experienced a war yet."

Hatake Saun said: "Kakashi's mother was attacked and killed when she was more than nine months pregnant. If Tsunade hadn't saved Kakashi, I would be alone now."

Hearing Tsunade's name, Uchiha Yi just nodded and didn't say much.

The scene was quiet for a while, and Sagumo Hatake's expression suddenly changed slightly. He looked around and stood up suddenly: "Xiaozhu hasn't come back yet."

The team member who told him before that he was going to relieve himself has not come back yet.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of several ninjas suddenly changed, and they immediately became vigilant and prepared.

"He must have walked this way just now."

"Yes, Captain."

Hatake Zuoyun pulled out the short white tooth blade on his back with his backhand, and said in a deep voice: "Don't move here, be careful, I'll go and see what's going on with Xiaozhu."

"Yes." Several team members responded.

Hatake Saun walked around the big tree and walked in one direction, and appeared in a hidden corner after a few dodges, and then his face suddenly became extremely ugly.

"hateful."

Seeing Xiao Zhu lying motionless on the ground, Hatake Saun couldn't help but clenched the short blade of Bai Fang, and there was a faint thunder in his palm.

"Captain!" At this moment, Uchiha Yi's scream suddenly came.
