Chapter 42: Konoha, under my leadership, is thriving

With the arrival of Lu Lin, Misty Village also began to develop rapidly.

In the Kingdom of Tea, Lu Lin sat in the original position of the Daimyo, and the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Tea was standing obediently below.

However, from his dull eyes, it can be seen that this person is obviously under control.

Lu Lin was playing with an exquisite jade fan, which was a treasure collected by the daimyo in front of him.

"I don't know what they were thinking to let a group of powerless guys sit on the heads of powerful ninjas."

Lu Lin would think of the treasures he saw in the daimyo's house, boxes of treasures casually placed on the ground, and many exquisite objects, such as golden creations, and the jade fan in Lu Lin's hand.

This is just the daimyo of the tea country which has no ninja village and little presence.

Lu Lin wanted to visit the homes of the daimyo of the five major countries, thinking that the treasures they collected should be more numerous and more valuable.

"Have you found out the details of the Tea Country nobles?"

"The Tea Country has few natural resources and civilians rely on fishing for a living. Basically no big country would care about the Tea Country, but..."

Mizukawa thought about it. He had been following Lu Lin since the Uchiha days, and now he has opened the Three-magatama Sharingan. Although he is an elite jonin, with the Three-magatama Sharingan, he is enough to deal with two ninjas of the same level at the same time.

Mizukawa continued:

"However, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has always regarded the Land of Tea as its vassal state. Therefore, every February, the Land of Tea will pay tribute to the Land of Fire. When the Land of Tea encounters difficulties, the Land of Fire will also send ninjas from Konoha to help."

"You don't need to send it anymore."

Lu Lin waved his hand:

“If the Fire Nation has any objections, just say so and tell them that the Tea Nation will no longer pay tribute to the Fire Nation.

Furthermore, from now on, Konoha's ninjas will not be able to enter and leave the Tea Country at will."

Opening the fan with a swish, Lu Lin stroked the soft jade bones, looked at Shuichuan and said:

"Bring the Misty Village out and build a ninja village in the Tea Kingdom. It will be called the Sky Ninja Village."

"Yes!"

Mizukawa looked excited, he had long wanted to establish a ninja village belonging to Lu Lin in the Tea Kingdom.

This means that this group of people are finally qualified to stand at the forefront of the ninja world.

Of course, the current Tea Kingdom is still a little weak after all, but with its strong high-end combat power, it can definitely compete with the Rain Village, that is, Hanzo, who is known as the demigod of the ninja world.

This is not because Shuichuan is arrogant, but because Lu Lin's strength has indeed reached that level.

With the perfect form of Susanoo, the Mangekyō Sharingan, the powerful Kekkei Genkai Magnetic Release, and excellent medical ninjutsu, Lu Lin is simply a natural nemesis of Hanzo.

Soon, a piece of news spread from the Tea Country and spread throughout the entire ninja world overnight.

Yunyin Village.

boom!

The current Raikage slammed his palm on the table:

"Huh! A ninja village? A ninja village can actually appear in a mere tea country? Have you found out who actually controls this ninja village?"

"It's not clear yet."

The Anbu ninja under him said:

"They seem to have appeared out of nowhere. Although there are not many ninjas, their high-end combat power is very strong. According to calculations, there are roughly dozens of elite jonin. The number of Kage-level strongmen is not yet known."

"Can you identify their characteristics?"

The only ones that could mobilize so many core forces at once were the other few villages among the five major ninja villages.

"It's a mess."

The Anbu ninja said:

“The ninjutsu they possess are all quite common ninjutsu, just like those ninjutsu that wandering ninjas accidentally acquired.

Moreover, our people were only observing the periphery of the ninja village when they were discovered."

"So, we believe that there is a Kage-level strongman in this village."

The Raikage's eyes turned slightly cold:

"Could it be that another wild Kage-level warrior appeared like Hanzo of the Hidden Rain Village?"

The Second Ninja World War was caused by the fact that Hanzo of the Salamander was dissatisfied with the situation of the Hidden Rain Village in the Ninja World, so he took the initiative to start a war.

Although the war turned into a siege of Konoha in the later stages, the root cause was the emergence of an ambitious Kage-level warrior from outside the five major ninja villages.

"I just wonder if this Tianyin Village is also trying to become one of the five great ninja villages like Hanzo of the Salamander."

However, Lei Ying seemed to remember something and grinned:

"The one that should be most worried right now is Konoha. After all, the Tea Country directly borders Konoha."

Just as the Raikage expected, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not in a very good mood right now.

"Tianyin Village, no detailed information?"

"Our people encountered obstacles when they approached Tianyin Village. Their strength was barely enough. If they fought alone, even our Anbu members would have the upper hand. However, since we were on their home turf, so..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally knew that the enemy's support could arrive at the battlefield quickly.

And after all, the Tea Kingdom is not the Fire Kingdom, so it would be inconvenient for him to send a large number of men in.

Otherwise, they will be targeted by several other ninja villages.

There is no way. The establishment of the Hidden Sky Village has had the greatest impact on Konoha.

"Could it be Uchiha Lulin?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned. The Hidden Sky Village was located in the old city not long after Lu Lin left Konoha. This made Sarutobi Hiruzen suspect that Lu Lin had already made plans.

But without direct evidence, Sarutobi Hiruzen had no other options for the time being.

"Let's strengthen patrols on the border of the Tea Country. As for the rest, let's try to send spies into Tianyin Village first."

"Yes."

Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand, and the Anbu ninja disappeared into the room.

"Ugh."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed. Konoha was now in a turbulent period again. It had lost two Kage-level warriors in succession, and several of his disciples each had their own ideas.

Among the younger generations, there is no talented ninja that can impress people.

"Does this old man have to continue to stay in this position of Hokage?"

This is not good news. Sarutobi Hiruzen likes the position of Hokage and likes power, but that doesn't mean he hopes that there will be no ninja who can sit on the position of Hokage in Konoha.

"Kakashi..."

He thought of the genius ninja who joined the Anbu because of his father's death and became obsessed with completing missions.

"It seems that I need to understand the heart of this little guy."

As he was thinking about it, he remembered the civilian ninja with blonde hair, who was also his apprentice.

"Namikaze Minato, he seems to be in a relationship with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Kushina. It seems that the next Hokage should consider him."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was in a much better mood. Look, Konoha has been thriving under my leadership.
