Chapter 152 Is there really one?

Ghost Lantern City, a prison for serious criminals. This is the key place of the Grass Country, which is sealed off using a special spell, and it is said that no one has ever escaped.

Of course, normal people wouldn't want to hang out in a place like this. As a result, Ghost Lantern City became even more quiet and eerie.

And in this isolated environment, a plan is brewing.

The Box of Bliss, no one knows the origin of this thing. According to legend, this thing is a fairy weapon used by the Six Paths Sage. And it is the most powerful one among them.

But no one knows what the truth is.

However, the Grass Kingdom has passed down this item for many years, and finally slowly figured out how to use it.

The Box of Bliss is able to communicate. It's not that it has a will, but during the contact process, the user gets some kind of feedback.

Satisfy the Chest of Bliss’ needs, and it will satisfy them.

What the Bliss Chest needs is a very vague thing, because it needs emotions.

The four sides of the Bliss Box represent four different emotions: joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. This is also the key to opening the Bliss Box.

When all four emotions are satisfied, the Box of Bliss will open and grant a wish.

But in fact, this thing has not been used for so many years. Someone must have tested it and knew that opening the box would not have any good results.

To be honest, in Aoba's impression, this thing should have nothing to do with the ninja tools of the Six Paths Sage.

First of all, the style does not match. The Six Paths Sage also left behind a lot of powerful ninja tools, but they are all positive or neutral items.

The Box of Bliss is obviously some kind of magic weapon. It is somewhat inconsistent with the character of the Six Paths Sage. Of course, it is also possible that this is the true face of the Six Paths Sage.

But no matter what, whoever opens this thing will die. And it will also release the monster named Wu inside.

Wuwei, the lord of Ghost Lantern City, obtained the Box of Paradise many years ago, but due to careless operation, his son was swallowed up.

So, he began to secretly feed the Box of Bliss, hoping to open the box and save his son. Of course, he couldn't say this to the outside world, he just said that he wanted to gain the power to unify the ninja world.

As a prison, Ghost Lantern City is very suitable for creating various emotions. It is a place where few people go, and Wuwei can manipulate the criminals here to get the emotions he wants.

After spending many years, he could already feel that the Box of Bliss was almost full.

Once that enormous power is released, not even Konoha will be able to stop it.

As for Konoha, after the Daimyo's letter came down, Konoha was quiet for a few days. This made the Daimyo of the Land of Fire very satisfied. After all, he was still the Daimyo, and those lowly ninjas were still under his control.

Unfortunately, the daimyo's good mood did not last for a few days. Konoha issued a new announcement again.

This time, the content of the announcement was more specific, directly stating that the Kusagakure Village had hidden weapons of mass destruction in Kizuna Castle.

And the target is Konoha. So, they request to enter the island for inspection.

The Daimyo of the Land of Grass didn't care. Their thoughts were simple: Konoha just wanted some benefits? I'll approve some funds, and you can send the money to the Grass Village.

Being a younger brother requires you to have the awareness of being a younger brother. The elder brother has taken care of me a lot over the years. It is completely understandable that he wants some money.

As for the Ghost Lantern City, the daimyo knows that place. Isn't it a prison? What else can you do if you let the people of Konoha go in and take a look?

The Daimyo of the Land of Grass thought very simply. But the Daimyo of the Land of Fire was a little restless. He had already said that he would not pursue the matter. Why didn't the Hokage of Konoha obey?

He knew very well that the Land of Grass would never have the guts to attack the Land of Fire. If you were to talk about the Land of Water, the Land of Earth, the Land of Lightning, etc., he would still believe it. The Land of Grass was Konoha's most loyal brother, how could they possibly rebel?

But this time, before he could take any action, the report from Konoha arrived.

In the report, Tsunade used a very formal report to report the intelligence obtained by Konoha Anbu, indicating that there is definitely a secret base in Kizuna Castle, and the ninjas stationed there have anti-Konoha tendencies.

At this point, the Fire Country Daimyo also hesitated.

The report seemed official, but it was actually vague in some places. For example, the report never directly mentioned that this was an official action of the Grass Kingdom.

It was just a statement that a group of ninjas in the Land of Grass were plotting against Konoha, which gave the Daimyo of the Land of Fire a false impression.

That is, there is indeed a problem in the Grass Kingdom. However, it is not a problem of the top leaders, but a group of traitors at the bottom.

This is completely understandable. There is nothing wrong with my own younger brother. But when the people below me go wrong, isn't this normal?

This time, the Fire Country Daimyo did not rebuke Konoha, but sent a letter directly to the Grass Country, asking them to conduct a self-inspection of Kizuna Castle. At the same time, Konoha would also send a team to supervise their investigation.

The daimyo did not directly agree to a large-scale investigation into the Land of Grass, but he still gave his younger brother some face. Letting them investigate on their own also gave them some leeway. If there is really any problem, try to handle it yourself. If you can't handle it, then there is nothing you can do.

This move by the Daimyo was not unexpected by Qingye. It can only be said that the diplomacy of the Grass Country is still good. Over the years, it is really comfortable to lick the Daimyo of the Fire Country. At this time, he still has to save face for his younger brother.

At the same time, it can also be seen that in the eyes of the Daimyo, the status of Konoha's ninjas is what level. The Daimyo always protects outsiders and is unwilling to give more trust to his subordinates.

I'm afraid that to the Daimyo, the ninjas of Konoha are only slightly better than dogs. They are just some war machines. Their status is not even as good as that of a good little brother.

"Okay, now that we have the official document from the daimyo, we can enter Ghost Lantern City legitimately. The question is, who will go? Qingye, this is your plan, so you will lead the team, and you can select the people yourself. Any questions?"

"Of course no problem." Qingye was not opposed to this question. He also wanted to see what the Paradise Box was.

Of course, there has been no clue about this thing for so many years. It is also possible that it does not exist. After all, it did not exist in the original main plot.

But whether it exists or not, Aoba has a way to make it exist. The plan for Kusagakure Village has many meanings.

The most important one is to start the expansion of Konoha.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Konoha has been promoting peace for so many years, and this concept has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is not a good choice to rashly start a war. Therefore, we must proceed step by step and try small goals first to see the reaction of the people.

Then guide public opinion and start building momentum for the subsequent expansion.

But just as Aoba was preparing, another piece of news spread throughout the ninja world.

The Kusagakure Village sternly rejected the intervention of the Konoha Joint Investigation Team, stating that they had never intended to harm Konoha.

But at the same time, Kizuna Castle is controlled by the Kusanagi ninjas, and they will never allow Konoha ninjas to enter Kizuna Castle.

In a word, the wording is strong and there is no room for maneuver.

As soon as this announcement came out, the ninja world was in an uproar.

Most people's first thought is.

"Fuck, is it true?"
