279. Invitations from all parties
·
Tian Gan Sheng Tu
Seeing that Konoha was not prepared to pay compensation, Hanzo seemed a little anxious.
He even didn't hesitate to talk about his own injuries.
In the past, even if he was beaten to death, he would not admit that he was injured in front of others.
Hearing this, Konoha's leading jounin couldn't help but touch his nose and looked at Hanzo with a slightly strange look.
Good guy, is Hanzo planning to be a rogue and extort money?If you say you are injured, I believe you. After all, you are wearing a lot of bandages. But if you say that Yugakure lost a group of elites, I don't agree with this statement.
Yuyin, are there any elites?
Well, although this sentence is a bit hurtful, it also reveals the fact that Amegakure does not have many elites, not to mention jounin, even chunin, Amegakure does not have many elites.
Of course, Yugakure himself actually appointed many jounin and chuunin, but these people's appointments were all based on water quality, and their strength was not up to standard at all.
To be precise, there is a large number of people who do not meet the standards, and a small number of them barely meet the standards, but the number is too rare.
More importantly, according to the intelligence known to Konoha, Hanzo did not bring any of Amegakure's elite troops to attack the Kingdom of Wind this time, but only some cannon fodder.
Otherwise, do you think Hanzo is stupid?He is very smart!
Therefore, Yuyin seems to have suffered heavy losses now, but in fact it is only a small loss. As long as there are sufficient resources, they can quickly replenish the lost group of people, even stronger than the original group.
······
But Konoha's leading Jonin did not expose Hanzo on the spot, after all, he still wanted to go back alive.
If Hanzo is exposed on the spot, what if the other party becomes angry?He is not only responsible for his own life, but also for the lives of his men.
So he thought for a while and said: "I'm very sorry, I can't make the decision on this matter. I need to go back and ask the Hokage for instructions before making a decision."
"Well, how about this, Hanzo-senpai, this time we happen to be holding the Joint Chuunin Exam. You can go to Konoha to negotiate with the Hokage in person. This way, the chance of success will be greater, what do you think?"
Seeing Hanzo's face darken and his body exuding a vague killing intent, the leading jounin quickly added.
Go to Konoha to negotiate in person?
Hanzo was stunned for a moment when he heard this. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was not impossible.
As for whether Konoha will take the opportunity to take action against him, not to mention that he is very confident in his own strength, it is said that Konoha invited not only his Amegakure Village this time, but also invited other ninja villages?
In this case, does Konoha dare to risk the disapproval of the world and take action against him?Presumably not, otherwise other ninja villages would not sit idly by and ignore it.
After thinking about it, Hanzo's murderous intention dissipated, and he said coldly: "In that case, I will let you go today. After a while, I will personally ask for compensation from Tsunade!"
"Okay, you can get out."
Hanzo waved his hand, and several Rain ninjas behind him came out and sent the Konoha group out of the Rain Hidden Village.
······
Rain hidden outside the village.
"Really, what kind of attitude do they have? They don't even know how to give away an umbrella. Are there any of them like this?"
One of the team members in Konoha's four-person team touched his wet hair and clothes and couldn't help but complain.
"Send an umbrella? Didn't you see that when we came here just now, they took away all the cloaks we took off? Have these bastards Yu Ninja never seen a cloak?"
Another member of the team sarcastically said, and the object of his sarcasm was Yu Yin. It was not difficult to hear from his words that his resentment was heavier than the previous one.
"I'll go, that's right, they haven't returned our cloaks yet! Let's go find them!"
"That's enough! Stop saying a few words and let's go." At this time, the leading jounin couldn't listen anymore, so he started to shout.
The team members were ignorant, but the leading Jonin was much more sensible. He thought to himself that it was not worth it to go back now after finally getting out of Yugakure alive. It was not worth it for a few cloaks.
Fortunately, their mission this time has been successfully completed, and it will even exceed expectations. Looking at Hanzo's attitude just now, if nothing unexpected happens, Amegakure will definitely participate in this joint chuunin exam, and there is a high probability that Hanzo will personally lead it. Team.
For this result, the leading jounin seemed very satisfied. After all, Hanzo agreed happily, and he could save a lot of time and money.
······
The lens turns.
Takigakure and Kusagakure received Konoha's invitation and also expressed that they would send people to participate.As for how many people will be sent and who will lead the team, neither Takigakure nor Kusagakure gave a clear answer, but it seems that it is almost impossible for their leader to lead the team.
Not long after, Kumogakure, Kirigakure, Iwagakure and Sunagakure also received invitations to the joint chuunin examination.
Their responses varied, some agreed on the spot, and some did not give a clear answer for the time being. Fortunately, none of them has clearly rejected it so far.
Kumogakure aside, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure are now allies with Konoha. At this time, Konoha sends out an invitation. Even if they don't want to participate, one or two teams will be sent to deal with one or two.
However, Konoha's purpose is to let the "shadows" of each village lead the team there, rather than letting them randomly send people to deal with the problem.
At the same time, Konoha also sent invitations to daimyo and some nobles from various countries, hoping that they could come to visit during the finals.
This kind of victory was simply a great thing for the idle daimyo and nobles, so they agreed without much hesitation and were very happy.
In response, Konoha immediately stated that if their own ninja village was unwilling to escort them, then Konoha could send an elite team to pick them up.
But this proposal was rejected. Except for the Fire Country, the daimyo and nobles of other countries said that they would let their country's ninja villages escort them there.
It's not that I can't trust Konoha, I just feel it's a bit embarrassing to have Konoha escort me. After all, it's not like there are no ninja villages in their country, so why bother looking far away.
They didn't want to be ridiculed by the daimyo and nobles of the Fire Country when the time came.
Immediately afterwards, daimyo and nobles from various countries issued missions to their own ninja villages. Some daimyo simply asked the "Kage" to accompany them. For example, the Kingdom of Wind directly asked Mango, the fourth generation Kazekage, to accompany them to Konoha. .
What?Not willing?Do you still need the funds?Then when we issue missions in the future, we will consider Konoha first!
So Wan Du, the fourth generation who had just taken office and whose butt was still hot, could only hold his nose and admit it, and then go.
Except for Sunagakure, the situation in other countries is roughly the same. They all hope that the "shadows" of the Ninja Village can accompany them, but they are not as direct threats as the daimyo of the Wind Country, and their words are much more tactful.
But even this has affected the attitudes of each village.
And this is actually one of Konoha's purposes. Otherwise, why would Konoha invite daimyo and nobles from various countries? Isn't it just to hope that they can put pressure on their own ninja villages? So far, the effect is very significant.
Except for Kumogakure and Iwagakure, Kirigakure has already relented, saying that the Mizukage will go to Konoha with the Daimyo during the finals.
After learning this news, Konoha was very happy. Kirigakure and Sunagakure were taken care of in one go, leaving only Iwagakure and Kumogakure.
To be honest, Konoha is not particularly worried about Kumogakure. The Third Raikage will most likely agree, but it is hard to say for Iwagakure. As for Onoki's cautious old man, he may be doubting Konoha at this moment. What conspiracy is brewing?
In fact, Onoki does have such suspicions, so he is still considering it.
······

Bamboo Leaf Village.
After 10 minutes of driving, we finally arrived.
The village is not big, it looks like there are only a few dozen families.
When the Enmen group entered the village, Kushina and Naoki looked around curiously, like curious babies. In contrast, Hinata Shizune and Uchiha Shuichi behaved much calmly.
The few people looked at each other and then dispersed, asking for information from the surrounding villagers. Yanmen found a big tree by himself and leaned on the trunk to take a nap.
After a while, Kushina and Naoki met at the big tree where the Flame Gate was located, and told each other the information they had learned.
"I heard there are no bandits around here."
"Yes, the nearest group of bandits is twenty or thirty miles away from here."
Shengshu said with pride and pride: "I think it's normal. After all, it's not far from our village. What kind of bandits are so bold and dare to approach our village?"
"Then keep walking and go to the group of bandits twenty or thirty miles away from here." Hinata Shizune pointed to a certain location on the map and said calmly.
After that, everyone set off again.
A short while later, several people came to the foot of a mountain, gathered together, looked at the map, and exchanged words in a low voice: "According to the information from nearby villagers, the bandits should be hiding on this mountain."
"It should be here."
"Then what should we do now?"
After the words fell, several people subconsciously looked at Yanmen, but Yanmen was in a state of mind at the moment and completely ignored their gazes.
Shengshu immediately said angrily: "Ignore him, we will discuss it ourselves."
"You're right!" Kushina said with high spirits.
Hinata Shizune and Uchiha Hideo glanced at each other, nodded, and said, "In that case, let's send two people up to investigate the situation first, and the remaining two people will be guarding at the foot of the mountain, waiting for news."
After a pause, Hinata Shizune continued: "Let Shuichi and I go up to investigate. Naoki, you and Kushina will stay here, and don't let any of the bandits leave."
Hinata Shizune considered that Nawaki and Kushina's characters were a bit reckless, and that she and Uchiha Shuichi had the limit of child arts, so it was best for them to be responsible for investigating the information.
"Row."
Neither Kushina nor Naoki had any objections to this arrangement. They nodded, and then Hinata Shizune and Uchiha Shuichi started to set off and sneaked towards the mountain quietly.
About ten minutes later, Hinata Shizune went down the mountain alone. Without waiting for Naoki and Kushina to speak, she took the lead and said: "Let's rush up directly. Shuichi and I have investigated carefully. There are no ninjas among the bandits above. The number is about There were 50 or [-] people, all ordinary people."
"Are they all ordinary people?" Shengshu was stunned and asked, "Have you confirmed their identities? Are they really bandits?"
"Confirmed, they are the group of bandits nearby, and there are some women who were forcibly kidnapped by them on the mountain..." At this point, a strong murderous intention appeared in Hinata Shizune's eyes.
"That's no problem, come on."
After saying that, the three of them ran towards the mountain without any concealment.
It was calm along the way, and even if Kushina and the others rushed up in a big way, no one noticed them.
Oh no, it should be said that those responsible for sentry duty have been killed by Uchiha Shuichi.
"You are here."
Outside a cottage at the top of the mountain, Uchiha Shuichi, who was one step ahead, looked at a few people and said.
"How's it going? Did they find out?" Hinata Shizune asked.
Uchiha Shuichi shook his head and said disdainfully: "Just them?"
"Then let's do it."
Immediately, the four of them were like tigers emerging from the cage, rushing into the cottage and carrying out a defenseless massacre of the bandits in the cottage.
On the cliff above the mountain stronghold, Enmon looked down condescendingly. Although his Kagura inner eye did not sense that there were ninjas below, he still stared at Kushina and Naoki carefully to avoid any accidents.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly and there were no accidents. All the bandits in the cottage were killed. Apart from Kushina and Naoki, the only women left in the cottage were the women who were kidnapped by the bandits.
After confirming the identities of these women, Kushina and the four of them discussed it and distributed the money found on the robbers to them, and then let them go down the mountain.
······
After solving one bandit, the group didn't stay much longer. After burning down the village with a fire, they set off to the next location.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Over the past few days, a group of people traveled back and forth to the northern part of the Country of Fire, destroying bandit dens one after another. There were about a dozen bandit dens in total.
These bandits took advantage of the wars taking place in the major ninja villages and had no energy to control them, or they became bandits for other reasons. The number was much larger than usual.
During this period, Kushina and Naoki also encountered rebel ninjas from other villages, but they were all killed by Kushina and the four of them. After all, the strongest among them was only an elite chuunin, not Kushina at all. Shinna and the others' opponents.
Uh, maybe it's just a B-level mission.
This task is not difficult, but it takes a long time and wastes my legs. The rest is not a problem.
After extinguishing another group of bandits, Shengshu looked at the burning cottage below and said, "This should be the last one, right?"
Hinata Shizune took out the map and looked at it for a few times, then nodded and said, "Well, it is indeed the last place."
"Huh, it's finally done."
After saying that, Naoshu sat down on the ground regardless of his appearance.
Hinata Shizune and Uchiha Shuichi also looked tired. Running around these past few days had really exhausted them. They were not that tired from fighting the enemy.
Looking at Kushina again, she looked like she was fine and still very energetic. She shouted to Yanmen not far away: "Yanmen, you go back to the village to get another mission, we are waiting for you here. "
Naoki, Uchiha Shuichi, Hinata Shizune: "Nani!"
