[Naruto] Ninja Live Report

The next day, a new delegation sent by the magazine, mainly composed of professional negotiators, arrived in the Capital of Thunder to take over from Lebki and Xi for talks with the five major powers.Lei Buji returned to the intelligence department, and Xi Ze changed his identity to stay in the Thunder City.

Perhaps in order to show their importance to the magazine, the five major countries sent official representatives to welcome the delegation.At the same time, for the first time, there was a negative report about Madara in the latest issue of "Fact Report"; although the tone of the article was neither serious nor serious, it undoubtedly expressed its own attitude.

Afterwards, the Konoha Elders publicly praised Fact Report for its efforts to maintain information transparency.

The situation gradually became clear.

"... I can only watch it again." Xi finally said.

Li on the screen nodded, and said: "That's it, we have no further news at present. If you have no other questions, the meeting can be adjourned."

Unlike the previous meetings, the members did not chat for a few words after discussing the business, but simply nodded to each other and then left one after another.Seeing the screen in front of her eyes darken piece by piece, Xi smiled at Li, reached out and turned off the camera.

She rubbed her temples, but she didn't feel any better.Finally, she gave up the effort and decided to go out for a walk.

It was the second meeting held in the club in five days just now, but there was still no progress.Through Hokage, the news that "Blade" may have colluded with major forces has reached the ears of the other four shadows, but so far there is still no follow-up news; and according to reliable sources, the upper management of the five major ninja villages do not think this Power" can be as large as a country.As the main person in charge of this matter, Xi was under extraordinarily high pressure; after careful calculation, her average sleep time in recent days was less than four hours.

The magazine's time is running out, and it is necessary to get accurate information immediately and revise the original plan.If this incident leads to the complete decline of the Nation of Fire after the Ninja World War, then the company's plans for the next 50 years must be changed.

Xi seriously considered the possibility of continuing to make wild stories, and then her thoughts turned back to Hinata.

【Konoha, Hyuga main residence】

Since Hinata took power, it has indeed become much quieter here.Many clan members who were originally surprised by the new patriarch's position, after seeing her speed of cleaning up dissidents, involuntarily lowered their voices and slowed down when entering here.

The elder was still in a heavy heart when he stepped into the corridor. The news that "Madara" was in collusion with one of the five great powers was far beyond his expectations.The Hyuga Clan did have many conflicts with Konoha's high-level officials, but they also heard that there would be no eggs in a full-fledged nest; so in the subsequent discussions, the elders did not have any opinion on this matter. objection.

The question is, how to pass this information to the upper layer of Konoha?So far, those people have not realized that it is not a certain force in a certain country that is in collusion with "Madara", but an entire country.Is it possible to rush forward and tell them that they can find out the news that the other party can't get?

Do not make jokes.

And... thinking of confronting "Blade", even the treacherous and cunning elder can't help but weigh it carefully.

As he walked, he was thinking at a speed that did not match his age.There was already a maid in front of him to greet him. Seeing the Great Elder's expression, she just saluted silently, and then led the way ahead without making any sound to disturb her thoughts.

Of course the elder also knew her—one of Hinata's personal maids, so he continued to allow half of his mind to be immersed in thinking while walking.

The maid brought the elder to the door of a reception room, and then opened the door for him; inside the door, Hinata held a cold white jade teacup, but no water dripped on it.

The door was closed softly, and the great elder stepped forward to salute Hinata, and then knelt down at the signal of the other party - as the number one confidant, he was not as afraid of the new patriarch as others.

Hinata raised her eyes, didn't say much, and directly took a document and handed it to the First Elder.After receiving the document, the Great Elder browsed through it as quickly as possible, feeling a little surprised—the scene of the secret talk with "Madara" and the field survey results there were marked in it, as well as when Wukage and the five daimyos faced the temptation. all responses.

He wisely turned a blind eye to some things and said, "My lord, I'm afraid I can't see anything based on this document alone."

But facing the same document, Xiang has already started a targeted investigation.Hinata didn't say this, but said, "Your opinion."

Of course the Great Elder knew what she was asking: "Judging from the current situation, it is the Nation of Fire that is least likely to collude with Madara. Although the Nation of Wind has been allied with the Nation of Fire for a long time, it is unwilling to be inferior to us. Quite ambitious, so there is a possibility of contacting Madara; but compared to the other three countries that have been hostile to us for a long time, this possibility is still small. As for the other three countries, they have been suppressed by the Fire Wind Alliance for a long time, and they have no grievances with Madara. Many of them have motives to collude with them."

Hinata turned her head slightly, and said lightly, "'Madara' used to live as Mizukage for a while."

The Great Elder was stunned for a moment, and immediately said: "Then the Kingdom of Water is the most suspicious."

"If Fifth Mizukage knew this, I don't know what he would think." Hinata seemed to be self-conscious.

"If she is also from Madara..." Speaking of this verse, the Great Elder suddenly realized, "I understand, my lord. Then the other four countries..."

Hinata looked at each other quietly.

The Great Elder then said: "We can use the rumors that appeared a few days ago." He thought for a while, and said, "'Conclusive evidence has been discovered', as long as there is such speculative news." At that time, I don't know Who can't sit still.

Hinata nodded, said simply, "It cannot be passed on from Hinata", and then changed the subject, "What do you think of the magazine?"

Magazine? JQ Long Live Magazine? !As soon as the Great Elder heard this word, he subconsciously shuddered, and instantly threw his thoughts out of the sky.He secretly took a deep breath, and then said: "They are very capable of guiding public opinion; some news that we are inconvenient to publicize but must be known to the public can be handed over to them. Other than that, they have no influence in the political arena or the ninja world. It is difficult for a magazine to make waves.”

Can't, set off a storm?In this world, science and technology are advanced, but the corresponding systems, systems, laws, etc. have not kept up at all; it is no wonder that the society can find a foothold and continue to expand its influence just by borrowing from the original world.

The Great Elder was suddenly surprised to find that the patriarch's lips, which had always been expressionless, seemed to be raised a few centimeters, and then returned to normal; but this faint smile was as cold as her expression.

【Magazine, video conferencing】

After Hinata's news came, the atmosphere eased a bit.

This is the third meeting held by the magazine.In view of the fact that there was almost no progress in the previous two meetings, Li, who had seldom intervened except for major affairs, once again demonstrated her strength and prestige—in less than half an hour, the members had already decided on the news that A Fei was colluding with the five major powers Concealing it, only let the outside world vaguely know that he seems to be in collusion with a certain force, and at the same time cut off the cooperation between the two by various means; this is greater than the sum of progress in the past week.

"Really, why didn't we think of it?" Gui Ye smiled and said after hearing the words of the Great Elder relayed by Hin Tian, ​​"Since we can't find out immediately, shouldn't it be enough to drive apart the relationship between Ah Fei and the Five Great Nations one by one?"

"The past hatred is not enough, there must be the immediate conflict of interests." Yan Yi quickly calmed down, and said calmly, "Now the five major countries don't know about the 'Eye of the Moon' plan, and they only have old enmity with Madara, so there is such a relationship." Maybe there will be a scene where we meet and smile to end our grievances."

"Even knowing the 'Eye of the Moon' is not enough," Xi continued, "A Fei can use the control of the world together as a bargaining chip to persuade the five major countries to cooperate with him, so the five major countries must completely lose their trust in him. So far he has not Appearing at the Five Kages Convention like the original work, if it continues like this, we will lose a good opportunity."

Yan Yi thought for a while: "Should I give the Fire Nation some convenience and let them find out about A Fei's collusion with one of the five great nations and the 'Eye of the Moon' following the attack on the Three Norths?"

"What they are investigating is difficult to hook up with the 'Eye of the Moon', and Ah Fei will not disclose all his plans to his collaborators. If they find out about this, it will arouse suspicion." Yue Qian said slowly.

Gui Ye tilted his head slightly, and his tone sank slightly: "And we've been doing too much recently. In the past, we moved smoothly because few forces paid attention to us, but after forming an alliance with the five major powers, more and more attention is paid to us. more."

"That's true," Xi nodded in agreement with her point of view, "We have a large number of people in the political and ninja circles, but we can't guarantee complete secrecy, especially as the Fourth World War is approaching, the club needs to take a lot of action."

After Xi Xi's voice fell, Li, who was sitting in the chief seat, spoke at the right time to lead the topic back: "We will discuss the number of operations and confidentiality issues later. Gui Ye, who can we use now?"

"The main candidate is someone who is directly responsible to me, not the magazine. Among them, those dark men from the Capital of Wind and Sand Ninja cannot be moved yet." Gui Ye Tuochi said while thinking, "As for the others... …We have no problems in the land of fire, the land of wind, and the land of water. The key is the land of thunder and the land of earth. Now the forces in the land of thunder are basically in the middle and lower levels of the high-level, and they are useless; There are people at the top, but most of them are new and cutting-edge, and the foundation is not solid, so it is difficult to explain how to get such hidden information."

Yan Yi knocked on the table unconsciously, and said: "Then the next question is how to do it. We must convince the five major powers that there is no benefit in cooperating with A Fei... The key question is how much Payne knows about A Fei's plan and whether he is willing to do so. Tell the five major countries whether they are willing to believe Akatsuki. The best situation is that he said the 'Eye of the Moon'; even so, more evidence is needed to convince the five major countries.①"

While he was talking, Hinata's virtual image suddenly made a gesture of looking back; she immediately said, "President, someone called me."

"Go." Li said.

So Hinata's image was still, with the status "temporarily away" marked next to it.

Yueqian then said: "I think we should help the Nation of Fire to obtain real evidence. Now that the five major countries have just formed an alliance, it will take some time to cultivate mutual trust."

"It's a bit difficult," Gui Ye said softly, "The evidence of Madara and Obito is very difficult to obtain. If it is forged, it may be discovered."

"And it's not in our interest for the five major powers to really cooperate without gaps," Xi added.

"We can try to use Itachi Uchiha, but there are too many places where we need to intervene, and there may be mistakes." Yan Yi looked at Li and said, "I think it is enough for two or three countries to find out, and then they will naturally pass the news to Other countries."

Hearing this, Gui Ye on the side quickly said: "Mizukage's administrative assistant and confidant Hikui is a member of the club, she can 'analyze' information from a large amount of intelligence data, and hand it over to Mizukage; the Hinata Clan of the Fire Country is also feasible. ;There is my influence in the Kingdom of Wind, so it is very convenient to do it."

"Be careful," Li said first, and then said, "Do you all agree with this plan?"

Naturally, no one objected.The members analyzed and discussed this again, and after finalizing the outline, hand it over to the subordinates to determine the details and the final action plan.

"...Nevertheless, the investigation of Obito cannot be slack." Even though such a big matter was involved, Li's tone was still very steady, as if he was talking about a plan that they were all sure of, "In addition, this We will face a considerable period of rest after the incident, during which all non-essential activities need to stop."

The author has something to say: Note ①: Whether Payne is aware of the Moon Eye project is not clearly stated in the comics, and there are also disputes in the analysis circle.It is assumed here that he is aware of the matter, but disapproves of it.
