Chapter 249: Haneda opens his heart and the daimyo blatantly targets him!
Haneda worked for half an hour and then left work.
Before leaving, he did not forget to encourage Shikaku and urged him to work hard for the prosperity of Konoha.
Kakashi followed closely behind, stuffing some of the unimportant work onto Shikaku, and then left with Haneda.
Since Haneda succeeded the Hokage, he would attract too much attention when walking on the street.
He and Kakashi used Flying Thunder God in tacit understanding and teleported to the third training ground.
The third training ground was the place where Haneda and Kakashi spent most of their time, apart from the Hatake family training ground, a few years ago.
In the past, Haneda often trained Flying Thunder God and practiced sealing techniques with Kakashi here.
Kakashi accompanied Haneda all the way and asked casually:
"Are you really planning to assassinate the daimyo and replace him with an obedient one? So that the daimyo government can provide more funds?"
"That's too small, Kakashi."
Haneda came to a cliff and turned back.
"Why don't you try to control the entire Fire Nation? We are ninjas, the strongest armed organization in the Fire Nation."
"Why should we rely on the Daimyofu?"
Haneda paused and pointed at the Hokage Rock in front of him.
At this time, work was still going on there and the sculptors were sculpting Haneda.
Haneda asked, "What do you think of Konoha now?"
Kakashi said without hesitation: "Although there is a lot of darkness hidden, everyone is doing well overall."
"With you here, Konoha will get better and better."
Haneda then asked, "What about other places in the Land of Fire?"
Kakashi paused for a moment, lost in thought.
In the Land of Fire, except for some important towns such as Konoha and Daimyofu, people's lives in other places are only slightly better than those in small countries.
If the place is more remote, such as mountainous areas or deserts, life may be worse than that in a small country.
Kakashi looked at Haneda in disbelief: "Are you planning to replace the Daimyo and become the leader of both the country and Konoha?!!"
"is it not OK?"
"If the Daimyo and those greedy nobles would just stop embezzling and exploiting a little more, there would be enough money to build a second or third Konoha!"
Haneda paused, then opened his heart and said:
"The world needs a leader, a leader with vision and courage."
"He is here now, and he will lead the people to victory!"
Haneda fixed his gaze on Kakashi's and continued:
"I plan to abolish the one-country-one-village system and establish the People's Republic of the Will of Fire."
"Unify the power of the Hokage and the Daimyo and build a new country!"
"Before that, I need to take control of the entire Fire Nation and firmly grasp the power of the country in my hands."
"And at the right time, get those hereditary nobles and daimyo out of politics!"
"Today's coronation is just the beginning. I need the daimyo to be hostile to me, and to make those ministers hostile to me, so that they will know clearly that it was me who did it in the events I plan next!"
"Let them oppose me, fear me, and be in awe of me, so that I can recognize who are my friends and who are my enemies!"
With Kakashi's intelligence, he guessed that Haneda would plan a major event against the nobles and daimyo of the Land of Fire.
Someone will definitely die in this incident, whether they are guilty or innocent.
Haneda needs to eliminate his opponents and then use his reputation to rule the world!
Kakashi looked into Haneda's eyes seriously:
"Haneda, no matter what you become in the future, no matter what you plan to do, I will always support you."
…………
Bear Country, Star Ninja Village.
A snake passed through the gloomy tunnel, through the poisonous valley, and came to the base of Dawn.
When Ye Cang saw the snake with Haneda's chakra, he knew that the plan was about to begin.
She picked up the scroll that the snake had spit out and unfolded it.
The above records the detailed plan for Daming Prefecture.
Ye Cang put away the scroll, said hello to Zabuza, and then led his men away.
She will go to Daming Prefecture and, at an appropriate time, ignite a spark that could start a prairie fire.
…………
The Daimyo Prefecture's sanctions on Konoha came quickly.
Just three days later, the daimyo blocked the road leading to Konoha under the pretext of suppressing bandits.
The Fire Nation's army did not openly rob the merchants' goods, but simply harassed the caravans in the name of checking for bandits.
At first, Lu Jiu thought that there were really thieves in the mountains.
After all, it is very common for bandits to come down from the mountains in the Fire Nation, and they often receive missions to encircle and suppress bandits.
But after being stuck in traffic for three or four days in a row, Shikaku realized something was wrong and quickly went to find Haneda who was taking care of the baby at home.
"Hokage-sama! The Daimyo has blocked the road, so many caravans can't enter Konoha at all!"
"Now, food prices are rising, and we have received a lot of complaints recently!"
Haneda said calmly: "I know, I have arranged for the roots to go over and help deal with the bandits."
"Roots?"
Lu Jiu naturally knew what the roots were.
If they were to deal with the bandits, they would probably have to deal with the people the daimyo had sent to deal with them as well...
However, the Daimyo's targeting of Konoha will not stop, this is just the beginning.
Shikaku thought that Haneda was planning to replace the Daimyo, and thought that Haneda would make a move soon.
He didn't pay any more attention to it.
But after a while, the daimyo seemed to be angered by the killing of people sent by Haneda to the Root.
He deliberately diverted a large amount of military rations that were originally sent to the Kumogakure battlefield and specifically transferred them to the border of Kawanokuni in the name of disaster relief.
He even sent a special letter of apology, saying that he did not mean to use his name, it was just that there was a flood there.
He couldn't bear to see his people suffer.
Of course Shikaku could see that the Daimyo was deliberately trying to disgust Konoha.
Where is the Land of Rivers?
It is southwest of the Fire Kingdom, and the Thunder Kingdom is northeast of the Fire Kingdom.
This distance spans the entire Fire Nation!
As expected, the ninja sent to investigate found:
It just rained there for a few days in a row, and the river became a little faster and the water level rose a little.
The problem will be solved by itself, there is no need to mobilize a large force.
Shikaku just found Haneda and wanted to urge him to take action earlier, but Haneda just said he knew and brushed the matter off.
However, Kakashi went to the battlefield in the Land of Lightning.
The war situation there has basically stabilized.
Shikaku said nothing more to Haneda.
Even though the other ninjas held grudges, they said nothing under Haneda's power.
But the issue of grain transfer due to the flood had not been resolved for long, and new sanctions from Daming Prefecture came again!
The funds that were supposed to be disbursed in March at the beginning of the year simply disappeared.
The daimyo sent another letter of apology, saying how hard his people were living and that he couldn't even collect taxes.
As it turns out, the old daimyo had just had a big party in his palace.
We also invited celebrities from all walks of life and other countries to celebrate life together.
Its extravagance and waste are comparable to the military expenditure of a war.
It is said that all the servants in Daming Prefecture were well fed that night.
The uneaten food was poured on the ground and fed to the dogs.
Lu Jiu sat in the office, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
Hokage-sama punches in and out and does virtually nothing.
Before leaving, Kakashi left all the matters of the Anbu and the Root to himself and left in a cool manner.
Tsunade occasionally drinks a little wine, and when she is drunk she just throws everything to herself.
The only thing to be thankful for is that Asma is still very active in his work.
Of course, that only applies when Haneda is sitting in the office...
“Why am I so miserable!”
Lu Jiu looked at the sky with tears streaming down his face.
