Chapter 669 Intelligence
After all, Daimaru is not a king who regards his country as his home. Personal interests and the interests of Sunagakure Village cannot be confused.
Even Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage, did not use his private wealth to replenish Sunagakure Village's precarious finances, let alone Daimaru.
The time when he captured the fourth-tailed Jinchuriki Lao Murasaki, Daimaru received the reward for an emergency mission while performing official duties, so it makes sense that the spoils would be at the disposal of the village.
The beheading sword was an abandoned item that Daimaru accidentally "picked up" when he was passing through the Land of Waves. It is of course his personal property.
Considering the situation, agreeing to return it to Kirigakure Village for a fee is to give Gaara face, and to let the high-level village officials who want to ease the relationship with Kirigakure to step down. It is a sign of integrity and understanding of justice, rather than having to compromise. .
The Ao in front of him must have understood, just like the white eye sealed in his right eye, the proper trophy was not returned to the Hyuga family even if the relationship between Kirigakure Village and Konoha Village improved.
"The bargaining chip given to Sunagakure Village is just a thought. The key is to make the person in front of you relax!" 』
After finding the key point, Qing suddenly felt very happy and drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.
"Please wait a moment, I will contact the village as soon as possible and send you a 'sincere' gift!"
The previously promised conditions were reciprocal terms between villages such as the exchange of inherited ninjutsu, the extermination and extradition of rebel ninjas, the division of maritime spheres of influence, and the lifting of the ban on war preparation supplies. The concessions made by Kirigakure Village were not small.
But these have little to do with Daiwan, it is better to have something more affordable, and sending money directly is much better than these promises.
Daimaru does not want benefits that promise to be fulfilled in the future, but rather wants to solve existing problems.
In the future, when the strength becomes stronger and the forces under his command become larger and more stable, the benefits that seem very good now are actually just that.
Seeing that the person on the other side didn't seem to be very alert, Daimaru asked casually:
"Don't be too anxious, I will stay in Naruto Village for a while! With all due respect, it seems that most of the Seven Ninja Swords in your village have been lost. Hasn't the Mizukage Fifth Generation thought about taking them back as soon as possible?"
"It's difficult!"
Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"In the last ninja world war, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen encountered the Eight Gate Dungeon Formation and were ravaged into a trio. Kisame Kisame stabbed the Watermelon Mountain Fugu Ghost in the back, stole the same shark muscle and defected. Now he has joined the Akatsuki organization. ; Loquat Juzo has long been a traitor to ninja, and Momochi Zabuza, who inherited the beheading sword, was killed by Kakashi Hatake in the Land of Waves; Black Hoe Raiga is a guy with a bad mind, who knows what he is thinking, Died like a fool!"
The seven members of the first-generation Ninja Swordsman are still somewhat capable. If they can bring out the power of the weapons in their hands, they are already killing gods on the battlefield.
It's a pity that in front of the eight-door armor formation that Matt Dai used his life to cast, four generals were directly killed. The three who escaped were dead and rebellious, and none of them could be counted on.
In the second generation, even the number of people could not be gathered. The "ghosts" who conspired to rebel were not mentioned. Lin Jiaoyu, who had the title of "genius", inherited the Thunder Sword and Tooth. Unfortunately, he died young and died of illness. .
The even more amazing and stunning "prodigy" Gui Deng Man Yue inherited the twin swords, Flounder, and could not escape the fate of being jealous of talents.
After chatting with Ao several times, Daimaru finally understood the Kiri ninja's current predicament.
"In other words, there is another 'prodigy' Chojuro who inherited the twin swords and flounder, and the thunder sword and teeth are temporarily sealed, and the other swords have disappeared?"
"Changjuro? That weak guy only has hope and is still early to reach true maturity!"
The past few years have been really bad for Kirigakure Village. The "Blood in the Mist" policy that has been going on for many years has long made the compatriots shed all their blood. The experience of Yakura, the fourth generation of the Mizukage, has severely damaged the reputation of the Kirigakure. The Seven Ninja Swords The withering away is just a microcosm. What's more serious is that the three tails are lost and the six-tailed Jinchuuriki Yu Gao has also defected. It is estimated that they will not be recovered for a while.
Fortunately, the Kingdom of Water is isolated overseas. Even if Kirigakure Village's strength is seriously damaged, no other forces will take advantage of it.
"No wonder I can't forget the broken sword in my hand, the beheading sword. However, have you found a suitable successor?"
"This is a matter for Mizukage and Genshi-sama to consider. Even if you want to find a suitable candidate, you have to get the Seven Ninja Swords back first..."
Even as Terumi Mei's confidant, Ao doesn't know everything.
Qing is very serious about the task of redeeming the beheading sword, but this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly in a few words.
Neither the Sunagakure Village nor Daimaru himself felt compelled to hold the Broken Sword and the Beheading Sword in their hands.
After all, it's just a passable weapon. With the strong manufacturing skills of the sand ninja, similar ninja tools can be made, but it's just not very cost-effective.
Sunagakure Village has its own fighting style, and the flashy "Seven Ninja Swords" are not very popular with Sunagakure.
In comparison, the three-tailed sandpiper and the six-tailed rhinoceros are eye-catching.
In the past, it was okay to huddle in the desert of the Kingdom of Wind. Now, the Sand Ninja, who are deep into the sea and competing for territory with all parties, urgently need the power of water escape.
Whether it is the puppet technique or the sand manipulation ninjutsu, it is really a disadvantage in the vast sea. Although the wind escape is not suppressed, it has no advantage, and is far less reliable than the water escape which has the geographical advantage.
If you can't get a tailed beast, the big sword Samehada is also a good choice.
The two talked about trivial matters intermittently. In the end, Qing, who was holding on to his drunken body from falling, staggered back to the hotel where he was staying to rest. Daimaru shook his slightly hot head and blew in the cold wind. , let the Ukon in the body help eliminate the alcohol from the body.
"Excitement, reduced nerve reaction speed, and loss of self-control are a good experience, but not interesting! 』
With a lot of messy buffs on his body, it was impossible for Daimaru to get drunk as long as he didn't want to.
I don't reject this feeling, but I don't like it very much. The alcohol in the body evaporates at an unusual speed. While Daiwan is sober, he is also a little unhappy with the unpleasant smell on his body.
"In such a humid and hot place, you really can't be careless for a moment. If you don't pay attention, your whole body will stink!" 』
Ninjas are a little better. If ordinary residents of the Kingdom of Wind move here, it will be obvious that they are not accustomed to the local environment.
…
Following the winding southern river network, the four-legged anole monitor lizards that smoothly entered this large lake constantly changed the color of their bodies to adapt to the surrounding environment.
After eliminating the danger nearby, he opened his big mouth and let the petite puppet who had been waiting for a long time appear.
The silent "Dragon Knight" and his mount looked at each other for a moment, then stepped on the calm lake surface and walked deeper into the thick fog...
