Chapter 28 A person comes from the hidden cloud.
Compared to Konoha, the Hidden Cloud Village selected the Third Raikage much faster. The style of the Hidden Cloud Village is exactly the same as that of the Mafia. After the Third Raikage Ai suppressed the coup of Kinkaku and Ginkaku, he naturally inherited the position of Raikage from his father, the Second Raikage Ai.
The hasty succession left a lot of bad debts for the Third Raikage Ai to deal with. Now the most important issue is how to calm Konoha's anger.
The Third Raikage Ai had a headache looking at the body of Senju Tobirama in front of him. If it is not handled properly, the Hidden Cloud Village may be at risk of being destroyed.
This matter is not easy to solve!
We agreed to negotiate together and not fight. Let's take a break for a few years and compete again. As a result, the Hidden Cloud Village did not manage the Kinkaku and Ginkaku well, and directly launched a coup and killed the Second Hokage who came to negotiate.
Although their Second Raikage also died, Konoha certainly doesn't care about this. What does your Raikage's death have to do with Konoha? We agreed to negotiate and not fight, but your family members launched a sneak attack?
Do you still care about the reputation of the largest village in the ninja world?
If the third generation Ai puts himself in Konoha, he will definitely go crazy and fight to the death.
At this point, we can only hope that Konoha can restrain itself and not go crazy to the point of perishing with the Hidden Cloud Village.
In that case, the third generation Ai can only lead the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha to fight to the end.
A few days later, the envoys of the Hidden Cloud Village came to Konoha, wanting to re-sign a peace agreement with Konoha and discuss the return of the body of the second generation Hokage Senju Tobirama.
In view of the fact that the Hidden Cloud Village was in the wrong first, they could make concessions on the previous agreement.
Konoha held an emergency meeting for this. The body of Senju Tobirama had to be sent back. It would be meaningless for Uzumaki Mito to delay time. He still had to face reality.
At the meeting, the quarrel was very fierce. The demands of the Senju clan's senior ninjas were very simple, that is, to fight to the end!
The clan leader and Hokage of their own clan was killed by the enemy village, and they didn't even say a word. Konoha might as well disperse and go their separate ways.
Konoha wants revenge!!!
Blood debt must be paid with blood!!!
Such voices rose and fell, almost occupying the mainstream.
But the reality is very cruel. War is a major event of the country, a place of life and death, and it must be carefully considered.
Konoha can no longer launch a decent battle, and there is really no money in its pocket.
No money!
War costs money!
Who will pay?
We can't count on the nobles of the Land of Fire!
But such words cannot be said out loud, do you understand political correctness!
Revenge for the Hokage, such a slogan is correct.
Even if Uchiha Nan was sitting below, he wanted to applaud in his heart, and his expression had to pretend to be indignant, and he wanted to rush to the battlefield and fight to the death with Kumogakure.
The slogan on your mouth must be shouted loudly!
But if they really want to send troops to fight against Kumogakure, the ninja clan leaders present should consider how long their business can last. They can't sell their ancestral property to the black-hearted bankers of the Fire Country.
Those hair-dropping people are usually a group of black-hearted ghosts.
They are sitting on the Diaoyutai. As long as you dare to sell, they dare to offer a low price that they think is black-hearted.
It doesn't matter if you don't sell, the price will be lower later.
Uzumaki Mito looked at the ninjas who were clamoring for revenge below. The clan leaders of each family had sad faces and said nothing. Their attitudes were obvious enough.
Revenge is possible, but not now.
Konoha is almost exhausted. If the war continues, everyone will be finished.
After a big war, it is not just the Kumogakure Village that needs to be dealt with, but also the Iwagakure Village and the Mist Village. It may be a one-on-three fight.
Finally, Uzumaki Mito brought the clan leaders of each family to a small room for the final meeting.
After a discussion among the clan leaders, they decided that they could not fight, but they had to show their attitude and not let the ninja villages outside think that Konoha was weak. They didn't even dare to say a word when the Hokage died, otherwise how could Konoha lead the surrounding younger brothers, such as the Kusagakure.
Uchiha Nan certainly had no objection to this, because the one who died was not a member of the Uchiha clan, but Tobirama Senju.
Uzumaki Mito personally mobilized the ninjas of Konoha for war, vowing to seek justice and pay blood debts with blood.
However, secretly, the clan leaders of each clan issued orders to the ninjas of the clans in the direction of the Hidden Cloud Village, and they must exercise restraint.
They could not take the initiative to attack. Of course, if the Hidden Cloud Village dared to send troops to attack, there would be no room for negotiation, and they would perish together.
"If the Hidden Cloud Village does not give a satisfactory answer this time, Konoha will fight to the death with the Hidden Cloud Village!"
Facing the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village, the Konoha official issued the most severe diplomatic rhetoric, making the envoys of the Hidden Cloud Village feel that this trip to Konoha might not return.
However, with a mission in hand, they still negotiated with Konoha.
On the basis of the original peace agreement, the Hidden Cloud Village was willing to pay an additional 4 billion taels to Konoha, with 1 billion in the first year and the remaining compensation paid off in five years.
The poor Hidden Cloud Village made major concessions out of guilt. They had no money and could not afford more. People in the village were already starving to death.
The grain merchants had already raised the grain prices to sky-high prices, which were three times higher than the prices in peacetime.
To deal with such merchants, the Raikage naturally struck hard and killed several black-hearted merchants, but it was a pity that it was useless.
But this is a business with several times the profit, enough to make people risk their lives.
What's more, there are people behind the grain merchants. The war makes a fortune by raising the price of grain, not just your money. The grain price of any country has not been affected.
Look at the Sand Village next door. The grain price has almost increased five or six times, but no one said anything. Is your Cloud Village special?
Then the Raikage who killed the merchant was warned.
When Konoha saw that the Cloud Village had lowered its attitude, the rest of the things would be easy to deal with.
Intimidation, exorbitant prices, and then wrangling, making a few harsh words to each other, and finally fighting to death, and finally returning to reality.
Konoha asked for another 500 million taels, and the Third Raikage gritted his teeth and accepted it.
It's just money, something outside of the body.
Starving ten people to death is a string of numbers, and starving ten thousand people to death is also a string of numbers.
He has no choice, reality is so cruel.
Let the villagers of the Cloud Village suffer, and he will bear the infamy.
The last thing to discuss at the meeting is when the body of Senju Tobirama will be sent back, which is a big deal for Konoha.
We need to hold a village funeral for Senju Tobirama, and make it a grand one!
All the clan leaders of Konoha must attend in person, and the scene must be grand!
We also need to notify the nobles of the Land of Fire, and all of them must come to the funeral.
Konoha needs to collect burial fees from a wave of nobles, and use the funeral of the Hokage to make money, although it is a bit shabby.
But making money is not shabby.
The family is almost unable to make ends meet, and the continuous fiscal deficit has made Konoha unable to make ends meet.
If Senju Tobirama is still alive, he will surely agree, to contribute to Konoha while alive, and to contribute to Konoha after death.
This is the will of fire to devote oneself to the cause until death!
Dear readers, can you slap me in the face with your monthly ticket?
