Chapter 279 The Land of Waves is the home of the Uchiha

The junction of the Land of Fire and the Land of Taki

"Hey! Hey! Brothers, work harder, we're almost there."

Hundreds of strong ninjas were dragging ropes made of fine steel and working hard to carry three giant mountain-like beasts. The leader, Shi He, was talking to a middle-aged man with a sinister expression.

"Thank you, Master Shihe. If it weren't for your help, our sacred beast of Taki Country would probably fall into the hands of others."

The middle-aged man was the leader of Taki Ninja Village, whom he had not seen for a long time. At this moment, his face was full of gratitude. He looked at Nanao who was sleeping soundly behind him, and he almost gave Ishikawa a knock.

"Hmph~ You have to know that I spent a lot of money to get the tailed beast back from Senju Hashirama."

Stroking his gray beard, Ishikawa had a slightly sad look on his face, and the leader of Takinin Village, who was very good at observing words and expressions, immediately patted his chest and said,

"Lord Ishikawa, you have troubled yourself with this matter. The money for purchasing the sacred beast will be given by our Takinin Village with both hands. In addition, we will also give a fortune to the allies of Iwagakure Village who came from afar.

"You have a heart."

Shi He's eyes lit up, and his indifferent attitude softened. He then raised his head, looked at the three majestic tailed beasts, and said with a sigh,

"It's true that God has favored the Fire Nation. It has produced geniuses like Senju Hashirama. The awakened blood successor can just restrain the tailed beast. It is really enviable."

"Thousand Hands Pillars!"

As soon as Senju Hashirama was mentioned, the leader of Taki Ninja Village, who had been smiling just now, immediately showed a fierce look in his eyes, exuding a destructive aura.

If Senju Hashirama hadn't broken into the forbidden area of ​​Taki Ninja Village and robbed their sacred beast, they wouldn't have paid so much money. Every time he thought about this, he felt so depressed that he wanted to break the robber's bones. Flying ashes.

"You have a grudge against Senju Hashirama?"

Keenly aware of the killing intent of the person in front of him, Shi He frowned in confusion.

"To be honest, this divine beast has lived in our Taki Ninja Village all year round, but it was taken away by that guy Senju Hashirama some time ago."

Now that things have happened, there is nothing to hide. The leader of Taki Ninja Village immediately told Ishikawa everything about Senju Hashirama's robbery of the Seven-Tails.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what an act of banditry! I thought Senju Hashirama was behaving in an innocent manner, but I didn't expect that he had two faces. I really made a mistake~"

Shihe, who looked very sad, looked at the aggrieved middle-aged man with pity. The reason why Iwagakure Village bought tailed beasts was because they didn't have any before. It's good for you, you came to redeem yourself~

"Huh~ However, the Senju Hashirama is stationed in Konoha, and we have been unable to avenge this arrow."

Angry as hell, the leader of Taki Ninja Village is not a fool. At this time, Konoha is so powerful that Taki Ninja Village can only break their teeth and swallow it.

Shi He rolled his eyes when he heard this, seemingly unintentionally, but actually he said casually with intention,

"Who said Senju Hashirama has always been in the village? He promised to help the Kingdom of Wind manage a desert. He should be setting off soon~"

"really?"

The leader of Taki Ninja Village was overjoyed and immediately asked,

"Can this be false?"

"Thank you, Master Shihe!"

"Thank you, we are not allies~"

The anxious leader of Taki Ninja Village quickly rushed back to his camp after bidding farewell to Ishikawa.

The strong man who was directing the Taki ninja to carry the Nanao saw the leader in a hurry and saluted quickly.

"Lord Chief!"

"Xiongda, come to my tent to discuss something."

The leader of Taki Ninja Village, who looked gloomy, felt that this matter should not be made public, and immediately called his confidant Xiong Da into the tent.

"Lord Chief, is there anything you need me to do?"

Xiongda has followed the leader for many years and has naturally studied the leader's temperament thoroughly. Asking him to come alone must have a very important task, so he raised his head carefully and asked aloud,

"Go and kill Senju Hashirama."

? ? ?

When talking about Senju Hashirama, the hero could only think of that punch that blocked the sky, and the bones in his body ached involuntarily. He knelt down on the spot, grabbed the leader's leg, and cried with snot and tears. road,

"Lord Chief!"

"I have made contributions to Taki Ninja Village, and I have shed blood for Taki Ninja Village~"

"I have an eight-year-old mother and a seventy-year-old son! There is also a big yellow dog that is waiting to be fed~"

"."

"Okay, okay, with your strength, you are just delivering food."

Looking at Xiongda's poor performance with a dark expression on his face, the leader of Taki Ninja Village pressed his temple with a headache.

"Thank you, Chief!"

When he heard that he was not required to assassinate Senju Hashirama, Xiongda rolled up his head, his face still showing the same sadness as before.

"No, I feel like this is too frustrating."

After all, Taki Ninja Village is also a ninja village officially designated by the country of Taki. Although it is not qualified to join the ranks of the big countries, it can still be regarded as the leader after the five major countries. The leader of Taki Ninja Village, who was very unconvinced, asked with his eyes how to survive the disaster. of majesty,

"Me too!"

"waste!"

Why don't I have anyone who is brave and good at fighting? He is either a good-for-nothing loser or a miser who is naturally rebellious.

Scrooge?

"Xiongdai, how are Kakuzu doing lately?"

"Go back to the leader, he is still in prison."

The Nanao was robbed before, and Kakuzu was the only one in the Taki-nin village who had been to the Fire Country. The leader of the Taki-nin village was indiscriminate and insisted that he had something to do with Senju Hashirama from the Fire Country. He must be greedy for money. Money betrayed the village.

In anger, the leader of Takinin Village ordered people to take him to prison.

Later, they also found a large amount of money from Kakuzu's residence. The terrifying amount was far beyond what an elite captain-level ninja could hold, which further solidified Kakuzu's suspicion.

But judging from the current situation, Senju Hashirama came to the country of Taki to capture Nanao, and it really had nothing to do with Kakuzu. He had indeed wronged someone.

but

"When I go back, I will release all the horns and let him carry out the mission of assassinating Senju Hashirama. Tell him that no matter whether he succeeds or fails, I will return the confiscated property to him."

After pondering for a moment, the leader of Taki Ninja Village slowly raised his head.

"But, aren't all Kakuzu's properties used to purchase mythical beasts?"

"Hmph~ If it succeeds, he can sit in my position. If it fails, do you think he can come back alive?"

The leader of Taki Ninja Village shook his head disdainfully. No matter what the outcome, Taki Ninja Village would not lose.

Konoha

"Brother, are you going to go alone?"

In the Hokage's office, Senju Tobirama was sorting out the planning list. He looked at Senju Hashirama who was very interested and frowned slightly.

Today is different from the past. Senju Hashirama is the shadow of a village. There is no reason to let the shadow do tasks alone. Moreover, now is an important node in Konoha's construction, and many things require the Hokage's personal nod.

"Then let me accompany Hasi's hot mom!"

On the other side, Uchiha Madara, who was proficiently correcting documents, raised his head, looking eager to try. He had long been tired of the work at hand and wanted to go out and have fun.

"no!"

You two go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and leave all your work to me?

Don’t even think about it!

"It's not a combat mission. I'm just going to plant some trees. I'll be back in a few days."

Senju Hashirama, who was sitting on the Hokage's throne, stretched himself out, and then replied with an indifferent expression. In his opinion, this was just a small task, how could there be any threat~

"Bang bang bang!!!"

While the three of them were chatting, someone knocked on the door of the office. After hearing this, Qian Ju Tojian frowned. Who was this bold guy who dared to knock on the door so rudely?

"Open the door quickly! I know you are inside, give me back my hard-earned money!!!"

However, when a familiar voice came from outside the door, Qianju Feijian's expression froze, and the hand holding the pen became tense.

"Cousin, what kind of wind brings you here~"

Uchiha Madara, on the other hand, opened the door as soon as he heard the sound, looked at Uchiha Gin with a gloomy expression in front of him, and asked doubtfully,

"snort!"

Uchiha Gin ignored him. After striding into the office, he locked his eyes on Senju Tobirama, who had a stiff expression. His fists clenched loudly.

"You white-haired guy, I thought you absconded with the money!"

Uchiha Gin was so angry. He worked hard to promote tailed beasts and even used a driver he made. What was the result?

After such a long time, Uchiha Gin has not seen a single big boy. He originally thought that Konoha was busy paying the accounts, so he was delayed.

However, several projects that had been suspended due to lack of money have started construction, and there has been no movement in my remuneration.

Today, Uchiha Gin must seek justice for himself!

"Brother Yin, have a cup of tea. If you have anything to do, sit down and talk."

Seeing that the situation was not quite right, Senju Hashirama quickly came out to smooth things over. He stood up and helped Uchiha Gin make a cup of tea. Then he turned his attention to his younger brother, frowned and asked,

"Tobirama, what did you do without permission?"

"Brother, I just..."

"Haha, this Bai Mao stole my remuneration from selling the tailed beast."

He actually wanted to quibble, and Uchiha Gin was so angry that he almost took out the Infinity Blade and loosened the bones of this white-haired man.

"Tobirama, this is your fault. Those remunerations are the result of Brother Yin's labor. How can you default on them?"

Feeling that his brother was in the wrong, Senju Hashirama immediately began to scold Senju Tobirama.

"You guys actually dare to default on the remuneration owed to my eldest cousin. Do you know what my eldest cousin paid to negotiate that deal? That night."

Uchiha Madara on the side suddenly became angry after hearing the whole story. He pointed at Senju Tobirama's nose and started to output.

Madara Uchiha still remembers how miserable Uchiha Gin looked when he came back from the Land of Thunder and his group's camp on the night after selling the tailed beasts. It must be a big deal that Kumogakure Village can pay the price so generously. My cousin put in a lot of hard work that is unknown to everyone.

"Stop! Cousin, don't say any more unnecessary words. I just want to get my reward back now."

Upon hearing that Uchiha Madara had advanced that night, Uchiha Gin immediately shuddered, scolded his elder cousin, and turned his gaze to the silent Senju Tobirama.

"The amount of your remuneration is too large and requires many procedures. Don't worry, it will definitely be paid~"

After a long while, Qianju Tojian slowly spoke, but anyone could hear that this was an excuse.

"Don't beat around the bush, if you don't spit out the money to me today, I will let you know why the flowers are so red!"

Uchiha Gin, who didn't believe Senju Tobirama's words at all, rolled up his sleeves to give this white hair a good look.

"Tobirama, just give the money to Brother Gin~"

"No money."

"Isn't that right? What did you say? What did you say?"

Senju Hashirama, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was suddenly startled. Then he widened his eyes and looked at his good brother. He swallowed hard and said,

"Are you kidding me?"

"I'm really out of money."

"You white-haired guy, if you want to lie to others, you have to find a decent reason. That's more than 300 billion, and it's gone if you don't?"

Uchiha Gin was the first to not believe it. Even if more than 300 billion were used to make a fire, it would still burn for several years. It has only been a few days, and you are telling me that you have no money?

"It's gone for the time being. When the money arrives after a while, I will pay you immediately."

Senju Tobirama turned his head away unnaturally. He was indeed responsible for this matter, but he didn't want to pocket Uchiha Gin's reward.

"What did you do with the money?"

Seeing that Bai Mao's appearance didn't seem to be fake, Uchiha Gin was immediately alert, and immediately frowned and asked, this guy won't encounter electronic fraud, right?

"That's right, Tobirama, there are no outsiders here, so just say it with confidence!"

Senju Hashirama also noticed something fishy, ​​and immediately urged him,

"I invested the money."

"Bang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Gin crushed the tea cup in his hand.

It's over, it's all over!

“What kind of investment, why don’t I know about it?”

Senju Hashirama next to him was also very surprised. He didn't know about investment at all.

"I originally thought I would tell you about this after I get the reward, but who would have thought that this guy would come to collect debts so soon."

It's a good move, but it's a rake. Do you blame me for asking for the income from labor?

"Tobirama, you are confused!"

For such a big thing, my younger brother is still able to hold his own. I don't know whether to praise him or beat him.

"Huh~ Let's talk about investment first."

As long as he didn't pocket his reward, Uchiha Gin could accept it. Then he shook off the tea in his hand and asked Senju Tobirama,

"It's the Country of Waves. They are going to set up a shipping company recently and asked me if I want to be a shareholder."

Because of the Uchiha Silver crown incident, Senju Tobirama was holding back his anger in his heart. With his unyielding character, how could he easily surrender to that hateful curly hair.

He wants to make a lot of money, and he wants to show his eldest brother who is the most profitable man in Konoha!

It happened that Senju Tobirama met a certain big shot from the Land of Waves, and the other person "inadvertently" revealed to him a piece of inside information that could make him a lot of money.

After seeing the other party's detailed plan, he made a prompt decision and misappropriated the public funds from the sale of the tailed beasts, investing all of them into the shipping company that was to be established in the Country of Waves.

The other party promised that he would get his first dividend soon, and this amount could just be used to pay Uchiha Gin's remuneration.

"You mean the Country of Waves?"

"That's right!"

The day of dividends was coming soon, and Senshou Tobijian, who felt he had no worries, straightened his back.

Although the big man from the Kingdom of Waves left with an excuse, he left the mark of the Flying Thunder God on him. If the other party dared to lie to him, he would definitely not get any good juice.

"Forehead"

"That's nonsense. I think you are just quibbling. Hand over your cousin's reward!"

Uchiha Madara didn't believe Senju Tobirama's rhetoric. After all, part of his shipping fee was included in the payment for the tailed beasts, which was used to settle the accounts of his eldest cousin.

If Uchiha Gin couldn't get the reward, then Uchiha Madara would have to pay for the previous tailed beast information fee and the construction fee of the Hokage Building out of his own pocket.

"Okay, then I will give you a few more days of grace. I hope what you said is true."

However, what no one expected was that Uchiha Gin actually let go. He had a very complicated expression on his face. He looked at the confident Senju Tobirama and did not ask any more questions.

"You guys get busy first, I remembered that there is still soup simmering at home."

After getting up, Uchiha Gin casually found an excuse to say goodbye to everyone. He moved so quickly that the three people present couldn't help but look at each other.

"Tobirama, then I'm leaving?"

Seeing that Senju Tobirama was a little distracted, Senju Hashirama took the opportunity to ask,

"Go ahead and be careful."

Anyway, Senju Hashirama has the mark of the Flying Thunder God left by him. If anything happens, Senju Tobirama will be able to arrive as soon as possible.

"Then me too"

"Don't even think about it! Work with me!"

Uchiha Gin, who left the Hokage Building, got into a deserted corner, and with a flash of golden light, he disappeared in an instant.

country of waves

In recent years, under the governance of the new daimyo, the country of Waves has been full of vitality. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the economy is booming.

It has also expanded the already famous construction industry to every corner of the Ninja world. Basically every country has a construction company established by the country of Waves.

The civilians of the Kingdom of Waves all praised the daimyo who suddenly landed in the air. While bringing them a prosperous life, the ghost army belonging to the daimyo mansion also slaughtered the pirates who had long harassed the coastal residents. It's all done, and the residents of the Kingdom of Waves will be safe.

Located in the center of the newly built capital of the Kingdom of Waves, the extremely luxurious Daming Mansion does not have the imaginary singing and dancing of birds, but instead has a solemn and quiet look.

As a dazzling golden light flashed, Uchiha Gin, who was far away in Konoha just now, had now arrived in the Kingdom of Waves, which is across the sea from the Kingdom of Fire.

A group of patrolling guards noticed something unusual and rushed over with red eyes. However, after seeing who the visitor was, the guard who had just looked murderous immediately changed to a respectful expression.

"I've seen it, Master Yin!"

"Is my uncle here?"

The guards of the daimyo's mansion were all Uchiha clan members who had faked their deaths and escaped. Uchiha Gin's return to the Land of Waves was like returning to his own home~

"The daimyo is meeting with someone."

The guards of the Uchiha clan did not dare to hide anything and reported truthfully, with respect in their eyes that did not seem fake.

"Is he one of my family?"

"Yes."

Since he was meeting with clan members, there was nothing to hide. Uchiha Gin immediately walked towards his uncle's office with a swagger.

Before leaving, Uchiha Gin seemed to have remembered something, looked at the patrolling guards, and asked,

"Do you miss home?"

"Isn't this home?"

"No problem~"

Uchiha Gin suddenly felt relieved, and without asking any more questions, he turned around and left.

Yes, for these clan members, the Land of Waves is the real home of the Uchiha clan, a home where they can make their own decisions and do not need to look at other people's eyes.

In the reception room of the daimyo, Uchiha Tajima, who had not been seen for several years, did not look as old as imagined, but rather plumper.

If you were not a particularly close person, it would be difficult to recognize that this kind-looking fat old man in front of you was the former head of the Uchiha clan who was once powerful.

"Daimyo, this is how the money came from."

In front of Uchiha Tajima, a gorgeously dressed Uchiha clan member sat, holding a scroll in both hands, and said to him respectfully,

"When there are no outsiders, just call me clan leader."

This clan member in front of him was the first batch of Uchiha brought by Uchiha Tajima. Because of his outstanding business ability, he was granted an official position by him. Recently, he has been traveling in the Land of Fire as a representative of the Land of Waves.

"You said, you cheated this money from that kid, Tobirama Senju?"

Uchiha Tajima was a little unconvinced. Senju Furuma, the second son, was smart since he was a child. How could he do such a stupid thing?

Little did they know that it was because of the good reputation of Wave Country in recent years that many countries made a lot of money by cooperating with Wave Country to set up construction companies, so Senju Tobirama was so sure that this investment would make money.

After all, we can't always rely on ninjas to repair the ninja village, right? We need professionals~

"Yes, I just told him that Wave Country is about to set up a shipping company, and he was eager to give me the money."

The clan member laughed very happily. As a member of the Uchiha clan, is there anything more satisfying than being able to cheat Senju's money?

"Have you exposed your identity?"

"It doesn't matter. When the time comes, the clan leader only needs to say that there is no such person. Konoha's current construction still depends on Wave Country. Senju Tobirama will definitely not dare to take action against Wave Country."

The clan members who had already thought of a countermeasure were not afraid of Senju Tobirama coming to confront them.

"You think too little of that guy. As long as he doesn't see the dividends, you will find a white hair in your bed when you wake up in the middle of the night~"

Just as Uchiha and Tajima were talking, a frivolous voice interrupted them. The two subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice,

but saw that Uchiha Gin had sat in the tea room in the living room without knowing when, and was skillfully making tea for himself.

He had transformed into Akimichi Tajima's uncle, stood up with a smile, and appeared next to Uchiha Gin in an instant. It seemed that the change in his body shape did not affect his ninja qualities at all.

"Gin! Do you still remember me, your uncle? I thought you would only go to the Land of Whirlpools~"

Looking at his nephew whose appearance remained unchanged, Uchiha Tajima teased him in a teasing tone,

He picked up the steaming teacup and drank it all in one gulp. The boiling hot tea had been cooled by Uchiha Gin's ice escape before it went into his mouth. He felt refreshed after drinking it,

"Huh~ Good tea, but it lacks three spoons of sugar, which makes it hard to break~"

Smacking his lips, turning his head to look at his chubby uncle, Uchiha Gin scratched his head, about staying overnight at the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Whirlpools The details are all colored, so he didn't want to talk more, and then he set his eyes on the clan member who cheated money.

When Uchiha Gin entered the house, he sensed that this clan member had the Flying Thunder God mark left by Senju Tobirama.

He is indeed a thief. If he doesn't see the dividends, the fate of this clan member will not be very miserable, at least he will die without a complete body.

Besides, according to Senju Tobirama's character, he might follow the clues and find out the inside story of the Land of Waves.

But fortunately, Uchiha Gin knew about this, so there is still a chance to make amends. Looking at the scroll held in the hands of the clan member, he said with some sighs,

"You are very brave, you even dare to cheat my money?" (End of this chapter)
