Chapter 349 Agreement

"This is just to express our feelings. In addition, our Raikage-sama also hopes to reach a cooperative relationship with your village in many aspects in the future, such as the development rights of some places, and the share of tasks in some areas. Raikage-sama is willing to I have told you that I can have more in-depth negotiations with you.”

Tudai said with a smile.

It’s really not just a scam.

No matter what people think in their hearts, at least it seems that the fourth generation Raikage or Todai is really willing to trade and cooperate with Takigakure, even if it is to initially appease them. Hidden Village, in order to exchange for the captured Kumo ninja and the two-tailed jinchūriki, they really brought something out.

This is a matter of attitude.

Menma's expression also became noticeably softer.

This may sound a bit fucked up, but sincerity and attitude are really the most important prerequisites.

Without even this attitude, it is impossible for any diplomatic negotiation to start, and there will always be one party who tries to be submissive.

"Well, then I have to thank you for your help."

Menma said with a smile.

Shibuki, who was sitting below, also had a look of surprise on his face.

Once the supplies are used up, it's over.

But the opening of the region and the acquisition of task shares are long-term things. A Ninja Village must become stronger.

It involves all aspects of issues.

The most direct one is the economic issue. If you don’t have money, how can you train ninjas?

Does the ninja tool cost money? Do the facilities cost money? Do you need money to eat, drink or have sex? Do you need money for various equipment and supplies?

You have no money, but you still want to become stronger? Just dream.

The series of conditions provided by Kumogakure Village are exactly what Takigakure Village is currently dreaming of. Shibuya was still worried before that he was already hostile to so many ninja villages. What would happen to his own ninja village next? It will be difficult, but looking at it now, it doesn’t seem that difficult?

"If Mr. Menma is satisfied, then some of our companions who are stranded in your village due to misunderstandings will be able to return in time. The families of these little guys in the village still miss us a little."

Seeing the expressions of Menma and Shibuki, Dodai also leaned forward slightly and tentatively stated the main intention of his group's trip.

Hear Tutai’s words.

Menma smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Well, of course there is no problem, but it will still take some time. Tudai-san should understand, right?"

The conditions are so clear and generous enough.

There was no need for Menma to continue talking in circles with others. After all, the captured Kumo ninja only had less than a hundred generals, and these conditions were enough to replace him.

There's no use keeping these people anyway, right?

"Eh?"

Hearing Menma's cheerful words.

Tutai was stunned subconsciously.

Shouldn't it? How could it be so refreshing? If Menma had responded stupidly from the beginning, Todai wouldn't be surprised, but after the initial conversation, Dodai could clearly realize that the young man in front of him was definitely not someone to be bullied and The existence of deception.

The conditions offered by our side do seem very generous, but except for the fact that the list of supplies listed at the beginning will indeed be delivered directly in the next few days, the other conditions will all depend on the two parties in the future. progress of cooperation.

And let’s take a step back.

Even if everything is really achieved, what the other party agrees to is a little too easy.

You must know that among the captured Kumo ninja, there is also the most critical two-tailed jinchuriki - Yukito.

Judging from what I just observed and the information I collected before, this Uzumaki Menma must at least strive for some conditions, right?

It can't be. . .

suddenly.

A certain thought flashed through Tudai's mind, and his expression changed slightly. After Tudai took a deep breath, he asked tentatively: "Your Majesty Menma said that, that is naturally the best. Just wait a little longer." Of course, there is no problem with the time, as long as everyone who is stranded can return.”

In his words, the words "a little" and "all" were deliberately emphasized.

Dodai can be sure that Menma, who is on top of the throne, will understand what he means.

"Haha, of course, everyone will go back. Almost most people can go back with Tutai Sang as long as they prepare for two days. It is a special case, but they need to wait for a while. Of course, also Please Toutai-san and Lord Raikage, please believe that it is only for a while.”

Menma said with a smile on his face.

The deep meaning can be heard both inside and outside the words.

Tutai's expression couldn't help but darken, and the faces of Xi and Samyi who were further down also became a little ugly.

The two-day waiting time undoubtedly refers to the time for the gifts from Yunyin Village to arrive. This is nothing. Tudai did not show any pretense here at the beginning, including the subsequent cooperation plan. Out of consideration for the current situation of the ninja world, Cooperation is not something that is unacceptable.

Tutai is a very sensible and realistic person.

But the special case mentioned by Menma later still needs to wait for a while. Anyone who is not a fool can tell that he is definitely referring to Yumu.

As for the reason?

You can guess most of it with your toes.

It is precisely because of this that Tutai finds it very difficult, even if this is a difficulty that was expected from the beginning.

"Well, there is no problem in waiting for a while, but the people in our village are still in a very urgent mood. In this regard, I still hope that Lord Menma and Lord Shibuki can be more tolerant."

But after all, they didn’t really refuse 100% forcefully.

Consider the current situation.

Tutai himself cannot be easily betrayed.

It is still necessary to push in all aspects. Whether it succeeds or not, in addition, you have to at least try hard, right?

No matter how slim the hope is, you have to comfort yourself.

Moreover, to take a step back, even if you want to fall out, you can't do it here. What if someone becomes angry and takes action directly! ?

No matter how scheming he is, he is still a young man after all. Young people tend to get angry easily, and Tutai doesn't want to just belch his head off casually.

"That's natural."

"Well, Menma-kun said so, just don't worry, Todai-san."

Menma and Shibuki said this one after another in harmony.

Although Tutai was very depressed, he still couldn't say anything more. He could only force out a smile and nodded and said: "That's natural."

"Well, it's getting late today. You Tutai-sang have come all the way, so you should rest first. Although our village does not have any particularly magnificent scenery and cannot be compared with your village, it does have its own unique features. In your spare time, Tutai Sang might as well go around a little bit more.”

Menma raised his hand slightly and spoke softly.

The general content of the discussion has been determined.

Detailed issues are not suitable for people like them to discuss, or to be more precise, Menma and Shibuki must 'maintain their own identity' and cannot engage in discussions similar to 'quarrels' with others on details.

This has to be left to the people below.

In that case, there will be more room for maneuver.

If Menma had to come to talk in person, it would have to be the Fourth Raikage. This was a requirement of his identity.

This has practical significance and is not random.

The previous Takigakure Village did not have this qualification, but the current Takigakure Village has it.

Equal identities, equal negotiations.

It is also an invisible benefit.

"Yes, we will continue to bother you for a few more days, and we will be rude today."

Dodai also stood up in a sensible manner, and with Nozomi and Samui in the back seat, he bowed slightly to Menma and Shibuki, and then turned around and left.

Looking at Tutai and his group leaving.

Menma's eyes flashed slightly, and there was also a hint of thoughtfulness in his pupils.

"Shiki-san, you will still need support from now on..."

Then he turned to Shi Mu and explained a few key points.

Shibuki also listened with a very serious look, nodded heavily and replied: "Well, Menma-kun, don't worry, I will definitely do what you ask for."

"Ah, then leave it to Shibaki-san."

"Yeah, no problem!"

The arrival of Yunyin Village is somewhat beyond Menma's expectations. All previous arrangements also need to be adjusted according to changes in the situation. However, for Yunyin Village, Menma's attitude is actually predictable. Arrived.

But before coming, everyone in Kumogakure Village, whether it was the Fourth Raikage or Dodai, still had certain hopes, not only because of Menma's young age, but also because of Menma and the current environment of the ninja world in Takigakure Village. Can't really say how good it is.

Even though Menma seems to be winning all the time.

Several major ninja villages were repulsed and defeated.

But can this kind of thing be replicated continuously? Let's not talk about the fact that the major ninja villages did not go all out. The previous joint operations were almost a joke. Even if it could be done, it would still be impossible to really do it with the help of the original Konoha Hidden Village. Fight against the entire ninja world on your own?

Therefore, before coming here, I really had a lot of confidence.

But look at it now.

Although the situation is not the worst one, it is not one that Yunyin Village can accept comfortably.

Under Duolan's arrangement, Yu Tutai and his party arrived at another slightly wider hotel on the west side of the central street of the village, which was specially used to entertain foreign guests.

As a person who specializes in perception techniques, Nozomi immediately made a gesture with both hands, and a huge amount of perception spread directly.

Covers the current area.

After careful inspection several times, and after being 100% sure that there was no one else around, Xi Fang nodded lightly towards the platform.

"Tsuchai-san, what Uzumaki Menma said just now meant that he only agreed to release the ordinary Kumo ninjas who were captured, but Yukito-san meant that he would never release them?"

In the seat below, Samyi, who had just sat down, also looked at Tutai with a serious look and said.

"Although I don't reject it 100%, that's pretty much what I mean. After all, Yukito is a two-tailed Jinchuuriki. Raikage-sama and I both expected this."

Tutai shook his head slightly and said.

Todai knew very well how valuable and important a tailed beast was. Without peak combat power, a tailed beast could easily ravage thousands or even more ordinary ninjas.

Compared to humans, the biggest BUG advantage of the tailed beasts is the exaggerated amount of chakra. To give a very vivid example, facing the same 10,000 rock ninjas, the Third Raikage would die due to exhaustion of chakra, physical strength, and energy. But if it were the Eight-Tails, whose strength was almost the same, and if Ohnoki, Lao Zi, Han and others did not take action, not to mention that the Eight-Tails would completely defeat the 10,000 rock ninjas, at least it would be no problem to break out of the encirclement.

This is the biggest difference between the tailed beasts and humans.

The current situation of the ninja world has become so chaotic. The Takigakure represented by Menma is unwilling to give up the two-tailed beast easily. This is absolutely reasonable, but they are 100% unacceptable to the Cloud Village.

"So what should we do next? Should we continue to negotiate conditions as before? Will they accept it? Or use other means?"

Samui's blue-green pupils also revealed a faint sharp color.

The Cloud Village is proud and even more stubborn.

They absolutely cannot accept the situation of being bullied by others. Even when their own ninja village was defeated more than ten years ago and the third generation of Raikage died on the battlefield, the Cloud Village still faced all enemies toughly.

The current situation is indeed more tragic than before, but the Cloud Ninjas led by Samui and Xi are still unwilling to lower their proud heads.

Interests are one aspect, and dignity is another aspect that is of paramount importance.

"No, we can't use other means now, and our village can't afford more waves. Although the old man in the Rock Village in the north seems to have plans to stop, it is hard to say how to do it specifically. The number of Rock Ninjas on the front line has only been reduced by half, and a considerable number of elites are still stationed there. What's more, we have to be wary of the Hidden Leaf Village in the south. Even if the probability is low, it is still our enemy. It is not appropriate to further provoke the Takigakure Village here."

Touchai shook his head slightly and said.

The goal must be clear, the bottom line must be maintained, but the more important thing is to see clearly the situation in which one's side is in.

In the current ninja world.

Their Cloud Village has already slipped from the top position. Let alone the enterprising spirit, it is already a very difficult thing to defend the remaining one acre and three points of land. As the assistant of the Raikage, Dodai is the think tank of the entire Cloud Village, and he needs to be clear about what he should do.

Appeasing the Takigakure Village is one of the current important goals.

No matter how long it is valid, the most important thing is to appease it first.

These days, the contract credibility of the ninja world is like a joke.
