Chapter 344

"Boss, do you have any guesses?"

Xu Liang must have had a guess in Itachi's mind, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.

Xu Liang nodded: "I do have some ideas. Zygarde just mentioned Konoha's funding. Here, it should be said that Konoha is provided with funds every year."

"Yes, that's right. It's almost been a year since the last funding."

After staying in the capital for so long, there are still some news, and this is not something shameful. You can find out by asking around.

Just after he finished speaking, Itachi suddenly thought of something and his eyes became surprised: "Boss, the daimyo is not willing to provide funds to Konoha anymore, and plans to cultivate elves to replace Konoha."

The potential of elves is needless to say. They are more suitable for cultivation than ninjas, and elves are loyal, not as dangerous as Konoha.

Konoha is so powerful that the daimyo can't help but worry about losing control.

After all, compared with Konoha's strength, the ordinary soldiers under the daimyo are not good enough.

If any Hokage of Konoha is more ambitious, he can completely replace the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Now that creatures like elves have appeared, it is normal to have the idea of ​​replacing them when seeing a force with greater potential and more security than Konoha.

However, Xu Liang shook his head: "No."

Hearing Xu Liang's words, Itachi looked over curiously.

Paying attention to Itachi's eyes, Xu Liang explained: "Although what you said makes sense, it shouldn't be like this."

"If you really want to get rid of Konoha and control your own power, you shouldn't just cultivate so few elves. Why not let your subordinates cultivate elves?"

"And there is another point. The Daimyo and the Prime Minister can't be so stupid as to think that elves can deal with Konoha's ninjas, right?"

"You have to know that the first place where elves started is Konoha, and it's not that ninjas can't subdue elves."

"Besides, if there is really a conflict with Konoha, other countries can't just sit there and wait for death. Although Although it is a peaceful era now, those countries will also enjoy the benefits of being a fisherman, just in one fell swoop to eliminate the powerful enemy of Konoha. "

"And at that time, the Fire Country will also be taken over by several other ninja villages and countries."

"As long as they are not stupid, the daimyo and the prime minister will not be hostile to Konoha, unless they have the strength to take Konoha in one fell swoop, but now they are far from having this strength."

Itachi's thinking is indeed correct. As a daimyo, he certainly does not want to see his subordinates have the absolute power to suppress him. I am afraid that it is not only the daimyo of the Fire Country, but also the daimyo of several other countries.

But it is impossible to think of dealing with Konoha, just like he just said, it is too dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed, and then it will be a disaster for the destruction of the country.

As long as you have a little brain and think more thoroughly, you will not do this.

And the prime minister who gave Xu Liang a headache is obviously a smart man.

"Then, boss, what do you think is the purpose."

Itachi nodded, and then continued to ask. Hearing Xu Liang say this, he also knew that he thought simply.

Xu Liang on the side did not answer Itachi, but asked back: "Do you think the Fire Country gives Konoha a lot of funds every year? Does the Daimyo complain?"

Itachi thought about it and nodded: "A lot, although not enough to make the Daimyo break a bone, but it is enough to hurt. I remember that this generation of Daimyo has long been dissatisfied with Konoha for so much funds."

Xu Liang nodded: "Then there is a reason, and we can probably guess what it is for."

"Huh?"

Itachi looked at Xu Liang again with a curious expression.

Xu Liang did not lose his appetite and spoke of his guess: "The purpose is probably to give this batch of funds to Konoha. The Daimyo does not want this batch of funds to go to Konoha."

"Boss, you mean the Daimyo does not want to give it? But Konoha will definitely not agree." Itachi frowned.

"Of course, how could Konoha agree? Who doesn't want free money?"

Xu Liang nodded and agreed with Itachi's words. After all, it has been going on for so long. Who would accept it if it was suddenly stopped?

And this is not just a little bit, but a fortune that makes a daimyo feel painful.

Itachi frowned and continued to ask: "Why?"

"No reason, because this is not a matter of whether Konoha agrees or not."

Xu Liang shook his head and continued: "The daimyo just needs to let this batch of funds leave the capital, but whether it can reach Konoha is not the daimyo's business."

After all, it has been given. If it is lost on the way, it is none of our business. At that time, all the reasons will be pushed to Konoha itself. After all, the funds are not kept by you.Live.

Itachi's eyes lit up, and he understood what he heard. He looked at Xu Liang in surprise: "Boss, are you saying that those elves were trained just to snatch this batch of funds halfway?"

"I'm just guessing, I'm not sure, but it's very likely." Xu Liang shook his head.

Itachi continued to frown, and he couldn't believe it in his heart: "Boss, isn't it too costly to rob the elves to train in order to plunder this batch of funds? And the people who came to escort the funds are also the Anbu ninja team of Hokage. Even if the elves are trained, it may not be possible?"

Xu Liang shook his head again: "I don't know about these. Those things are just our guesses. We don't know whether it is true or not. We can only continue to wait and see."

"But I think it's not expensive to train elves to plunder this batch of funds. You know, if they are really trained, these elves can not only plunder funds, but also help the daimyo to accomplish something shameful."

Of course, Xu Liang believed that the main purpose was to build an elf team similar to the root of Konoha, and robbing Konoha's funds halfway was just a coincidence.

But now there is no intelligence pointing to this aspect, so Xu Liang only guessed in his heart, but did not speak to Itachi and Zygarde.

"Boss, what should we do now? Do we need to wait?"

After listening to Xu Liang's words, Itachi nodded and continued.

"Yes."

Xu Liang also nodded: "Zygarde should keep an eye on the Daimyo and see if he can find anything. But we can't just give up on the Xiangfu. I always feel that the Xiangfu may be more troublesome than the Daimyo."

Zygarde nodded in agreement and did not answer Xu Liang.

Itachi next to him continued to ask Xu Liang: "Boss, what about us? Do we need to do anything?"

"Of course, since we already know their purpose, we should also go and see the elves that were robbed."
