Chapter 386
The negotiation was very elegant.
Both sides could hear the other side greeting their boss's family cordially.
So polite.
It was the end of World War II.
The ninjas' negotiations were not as detailed as in the later stages, when they needed to negotiate at the negotiation table.
Because the nature of war is that there are too many people and not enough resources, so the interests need to be redistributed.
In addition to ninja tools and supplies, ninjas also have ninjutsu.
Ninjutsu cannot be asked for, because even C-level ninjutsu is very important.
As long as it is circulated in the market, it will soon be bought at a high price.
And ninjutsu is almost an important factor that will expose the ninja's information.
It is easy for people to find flaws in it and be targeted to death.
Therefore, every ninja, once they have learned ninjutsu, rarely put it on their body.
They all put it in the place they think is the safest, or even burn it and keep it only in their minds.
Therefore, in the ninja world, there are only a few conventional ninjutsu.
The rest are ninjutsu developed by themselves.
The first two, blades and supplies, can be purchased with money.
Instead of wasting energy to ask for those precious treasures, it is better to exchange them for the almighty money.
When the time comes, you can buy whatever you want.
If you want ninja tools and treasures, you can steal or rob them.
There is no need to write them in the agreement and occupy a quota.
This is Danzo's idea, and it is also the idea of most people in the ninja world.
In the end, after a "friendly" negotiation, the two sides agreed.
In order to compensate Konoha with 90 million taels, all the supplies here must be abandoned and not taken away.
Only then did the conditions of both parties be reached.
Konoha let the Sand Ninja go back.
Danzo also has spies in the Wind Country, so he naturally knows the financial situation of the Sand Village.
To be honest, if it weren't for the lack of money, the Sand Village would probably not make much money like during World War I.
So it is estimated that this price is the bottom line of the Wind Shadow.
He was not worried that the Sand Village would not be able to come up with the money.
This world may not have much else, but there are many ninjas.
Especially the existence of the exchange office, which allows many ninjas to hunt other ninjas in exchange for commissions.
With the strength of the Kazekage, if he secretly kills a few more Asuma-level ninjas, he will have the money.
Of course, with the arrogant character of the Third Kazekage, he probably won't do many things like killing rebellious ninjas for money.
After seeing the people of the Sand Village leave empty-handed.
Danzo and others then withdrew to the camp.
At this time, a newbie in the Konoha team suddenly asked in a low voice: "Senior, I don't understand why they don't leave collateral. What if they go back and cheat and don't pay?"
Hearing this, the senior ninja smiled and explained: "You don't have to worry about this.
This is a promise made by the Kage, and it was negotiated in front of so many people.
They won't cheat for such a thing.
You have to know that the Kage also has the self-esteem of being a Kage!"
As he said this, he looked in the direction of the Hokage, his eyes full of admiration.
"Besides, if they cheat, the people in their village will not be able to face the world in the future.
And it is natural to pay back debts. Once they cheat first, we have a legitimate reason to send troops to attack them.
And the people of other countries have no reason to support them.
We may even add insult to injury and kill the cheaters first!"
"The shadow is the face of a country facing the world. If he cheats, he will have no face and no shadow!
Then the people of this country will not be able to stand up straight!"
Hearing this, the newbie nodded as if he understood.
"Oh, is that so!"
"Yes, that's it!" The senior replied with a smile.
In fact, these words are just words on the surface.
There is no face in the confrontation between countries.
Everyone is just seeking their own interests.
They have done a lot of shameless things.
Otherwise, how could the five major countries in the ninja world be called the five gangsters?
But Elder Danzo still did it, because he was not afraid that the Tsuchikage and Kazekage would cheat.
He also had ways to punish them for cheating.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was walking in the front, looked at Danzo and nodded, saying, "Well done!"
"Of course, it's just a negotiation, a small matter!" Danzo snorted coldly and turned his head away, but Sarutobi could see the corners of his mouth that were almost grinning to his ears.
(*￣︶￣)
He smiled, then said seriously, "Okay, the aftermath here is entirely up to you.
The three of us will rush back to Konoha first!"
ListenAt this, Danzo's mouth returned to its original state. He turned his head to look at the third generation, his brows slightly gathered, with a touch of sadness.
"Sarutobi, there is a thousand-year-old precious ginseng in my room. If you need it, you can take it to Mito-sama!" As he said this, he turned around and turned his back to the three of them.
The three masters and apprentices who heard this all looked at this dark-minded guy with some surprise.
Unexpectedly, he was willing to give up such an important treasure.
It was really beyond their expectations.
Sarutobi came back to his senses first. He glanced at his old friend's back, and there was unspeakable relief in his eyes.
'Danzo, you are still the boy before, not much has changed! '
"Okay, if you really need it, I won't be polite!"
"Yeah!" Danzo nodded.
As he walked, he suddenly stopped and turned his head slightly to look at Sarutobi.
"I don't think I can go back in a short time. Please tell Mito-sama a few words for me!"
"You say!"
It was noon now, and there was almost no sunshine, because this is the Land of Rain.
Although it is a border and it doesn't rain much, it is still difficult to see the sun.
Danzo looked up at the sky.
He said sadly: "First, please ask her to ask me if I hadn't backed down, would the teacher choose me as Hokage!"
Hearing this, Sarutobi nodded heavily, knowing that this has always been a concern for his old friend.
For so many years, he has never let it go. He hates himself and thinks that he has taken his position as Hokage, but Sarutobi Hiruzen knows that he actually hates himself the most.
Hate himself for being cowardly.
"Second, apologize to her for me!"
"Apologize!?" The three of them were stunned for a moment.
It was the third generation who reacted first and knew what the old friend meant.
When Kushina first arrived in the village, he wanted to control the new Jinchūriki.
But he scolded her, so she didn't do anything.
"Okay, I'll help you convey these two things!"
"Yeah!" Danzo nodded and walked away again with his cane.
But the three masters and apprentices didn't follow him.
Jiraiya looked at the other's back, his eyes full of surprise.
"Danzo has a conscience?"
As soon as these words came out, Sarutobi was immediately unhappy. He knocked on the back of the other's head and said unhappily: "What nonsense are you talking about, Danzo has always been a good person!"
'It's just that after staying in the dark for a long time, it's inevitable that you will go the wrong way! '
'But this battle seems to have a certain impact on him! '
Thinking in his heart, he turned his head and said: "Okay, don't think too much, let's get back as soon as possible!"
"Okay!"
...
The Anbu at the entrance of the Whirlpool Tower
This wait lasted from sunrise to sunset.
All of them stared at the gate eagerly.
"Captain, do you think Lord Mito is really in trouble?!"
The captain glared at him and scolded, "Shut up, you and I can't say that!"
He looked around carefully and was relieved when he saw no one.
Uzumaki Mito has an absolute status in Konoha. Even Lord Hokage has to be as obedient as a son when he sees him.
The team members covered their mouths in a hurry, but because they were wearing masks, they covered their mouths on the masks, which made them look a little funny for a while.
"You guys watch here, I'll go report my work!" The captain frowned and said.
He was also wondering why Lord Orochimaru, the Uchiha clan, and the Hyuga clan had been in for so long, but no one came out.
He wanted to judge what happened inside by the expressions of these people after they came out.
‘Oh, if only we could get in! ’
Thinking this way, he had already run towards the Hokage office building.
