Red Dust

Gaara, who was standing by the window, looked at Sand Ninja who was clamoring below, and was excited by the news that Iwa Ninja General Bunya had just been slaughtered.

"Can I be of any help?"

He seemed to be talking to himself, and he seemed to be asking Temari and Kankuro behind him.

"It should be, without you, we can't beat the teeth!"

Kankuro hesitated for a while, then thoughtfully answered with careful consideration.

The reward for such a master in the black market is astronomical, and the difference from him is like big figures like Sarutobi Asma, Quanbei, and Fuyi. Where are the two new Jinnin and a few Jinnin? Can you beat it?

Half of the credit for this is to be counted on Gaara's head. As a human being, his chakra volume is so abundant that it makes people desperate, which is the key to "grinding" his teeth to death.

"However, I was almost beaten to death by Wen Ya, if it wasn't for Daimaru misleading his judgment..."

Speaking of Gaara, recalling Wen Ya's indomitable power, he still has lingering fears now.

Hearing Gaara's words, Temari couldn't help but chuckle:

"The so-called companion does not require you to pay alone! Gaara, it is a good idea to want to help your compatriots, but you also have to adapt to accepting the kindness of others."

"With the kindness of others, can I also...?"

"What nonsense!"

Kankuro came over and boldly patted Gaara on the shoulder,

"Just to give, not to accept favors? Such kindness is too heavy!"

"I understand!"

Since Yashamaru died, Gaara, who has not been needed for a long time, once again realized that the meaning of his existence is not only for killing,

"I still have a lot to learn! Thank you, Kankuro..."

Chapter 0146 Interest Exchange

It has been a few days since Maki came to Konoha Village, but little progress has been made in the negotiations.

Although he has contacted some high-level officials of Konoha Village, he is very secretive about re-contracting the alliance, which makes Maki, who has a heavy responsibility, deeply worried.

The pressure of Yanyin Village has always existed, and now it is just a test, but if Sandyin Village can't get the support of Konoha Village in time, maybe the test will turn into a full-scale war.

Because it is not uncommon for some small conflicts to eventually detonate into major wars.

The battle strength of the five major ninja villages is definitely not just talking about it. Once the balance is out of balance, the war in the ninja world is inevitable.

Due to the high expectations of re-alignment, Konoha Village did not restrict the movements of Maki and others.

With sand and sound wind, stroll the bustling streets.

"so many people!"

Yinfeng sighed, when did Shayin Village become so prosperous... No, even if it's only half of it, it's very gratifying.

The scars of the war are almost gone, and the villagers are in full swing rebuilding the destroyed buildings.

"Enviable recovery ability, it won't take long to make up for the loss!"

Sand said to Markey worriedly,

"The bravery of the sand ninja is naturally not weaker than that of the Konoha ninja, but the village's comprehensive strength is far behind, and it has a tendency to become bigger and bigger!"

Markey nodded in agreement:

"Most of the damage Sand Ninja did to Konoha Village was focused on destroying facilities and did not cause much damage!"

Because of the failure of Gaara's beastization, most of the Konoha villagers retreated calmly to a safe area.

In addition to the front-line garrison ninjas who suffered heavy losses due to Sand Ninja's sneak attack, Konoha Ninja who reacted blocked Sand Ninja's raid in the core area, hospitals, ninja schools and other places close to Naruto Rock were not caught in the fire at all. spread to.

"see it?"

Maki pointed to the pavilions and pavilions that are about to be restored to the old view, the residential buildings lined up in rows, and the tea street where people come and go,

"As long as people are still alive, there is hope. Even if the entire Konoha Village is destroyed, soon they will be able to build a new Konoha Village!"

In contrast, Shayin Village did not try to consolidate its foundation like Konoha Village.

The whole village is getting poorer and weaker in the squeeze of quick success.

Tone wind and sand's faces were a little sad.

After a war, Konoha Village is about to be reborn from the ashes, while Shayin Village is still unable to extricate itself from the dangerous situation, but is getting deeper and deeper, and can only hope to overcome the difficulties by external forces.

After a long silence, Maki asked in a deep voice:

"Isn't the choice of Hokage Five Generations that Konoha Village prefers yet?"

Sand replied:

"Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, is now in Konoha Village. He should have been a popular candidate, but..."

"But what?"

"Jiraiya himself didn't want to, but instead recommended Tsunade, who is also one of the three ninjas!"

"It really is……"

Tonfeng smiled bitterly,

"We couldn't find a suitable person to be Kazekage, but Konoha Village has too many candidates for Hokage's fifth purpose. I don't know which one to choose... It's so enviable!"

"So, we need to work hard to keep going! We can't do it if we don't make it, but at least we have to wait until the next generation of Sand Ninja grows up!"

After speaking, Mackey paused, and suddenly remembered something,

"The last time I talked about it, I hope they can release their suggestions in advance. What is the attitude of Konoha Village?"

"It seems... not exclusive!"

Tono wind pondered, and told Markey about the intention of the negotiation in concise words.

"That is to say, we can talk? Very good, Tone wind, continue to test! We really need this batch of detained sand ninjas..."

Weak desert lions must not show their opportunities in front of hyenas, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

While a few people were chatting, Genma Shiranui, who had fought against Maki, came over.

Markey stretched out his hand to signal the two subordinates not to act rashly.

"Sarinamaji, the advisor of the third generation wants to see you!"

"Is there finally a more formal meeting? We can't wait!"

Maki breathed a sigh of relief and ignored the coldness in Shiranui Xuanjian's tone.

"I don't know who the consultant is?"

"You'll know when the time comes!"

After speaking, Shiranui Xuanjian turned around and walked forward.

"This is... let's go with him? You're welcome!"

Sand was a little indignant, but Maki was calm:

"It is we who ask others! This little thing is nothing, let's go!"

Followed by Shiranui Genma to Hokage's house, Yinfeng and Sand were stopped at the door, Maki pushed the door and walked in, Mito Menyan and Chuan Koharu were sitting up, waiting for Maki's arrival.

"Maki, the representative of Sandyin Village, sit down!"

Markey nodded in thanks, then found a stool and sat down.

"Thank you for meeting you in your busy schedule..."

"The village is in shambles, and there are many things to do..."

Mitomon Yan still had an old face, and said in an old-fashioned manner,

"I won't waste my time, I'll ask directly! It's okay to re-contract, but what benefits can we get from Konoha Village? It's better to make it clear in advance..."

Maki was overjoyed by the tone revealed by Mito Menyan. As long as he and Konoha Village can turn enemies into friends, everything can be discussed.

"We need combat material support; we will return part of the quest that originally belonged to the Land of Winds to Sand Hidden Village; in addition, we hope to release the detained Sand Shinobi as soon as possible..."

"A lot to ask for!"

In particular, the issue of task division is too sensitive, which is directly related to the survival and development of a Ninja village.

"What are you going to give in exchange for these things you are asking for?"

Even though Maki said that the terms of the peace talks in Sandyin Village were a little rude, Mito Kazuo still didn't get angry, just frowned and said,

"Sha Ninja has been defeated and surrendered, but he delusionally wants to gain more benefits than before the war? With all due respect, it is impossible for Sand Hidden Village to come up with conditions that satisfy us now!"

"It is true, but if Konoha Village wants to gain a sincere ally, it should not be squeezed unsustainably. If the last covenant was not so harsh on Sandyin Village, this bloody conflict will not be at all. If it happens, please consider it carefully!

Sand Ninja has no intention of becoming an enemy of Konoha Village, and it is already very difficult to deal with Yanyin Village.

"You're bold, Markey..."

If Shimura Dan was hiding here, he would have been impatient.If Maki is close to a threat, the tough "Darkness of the Ninja World" will directly close the door to the peace talks.

Markey lowered his head slightly and said sincerely:

"We Sand Ren can't afford the price of being misunderstood and misjudged by our allies. It's better to say our thoughts clearly and let everyone know!"

Xiaochun, who had been silent for a while, suddenly opened his mouth and said:

"We know your bottom line, but Maki, you must have enough strength to stick to the bottom line. Does Sandyin Village still have the qualifications to make Konoha look different?"

Allies are also different from allies. Why is Sandyin Village an existence on an equal footing with Konoha Village, while Kusanagi is just a dispensable vassal?

In other words, it is not so certain that the Shayin Village, which has declined to the extreme, can still support the pattern of one of the five major Ninja Villages.

On a hot day, the cold sweat on Maki's forehead burst out involuntarily.

Although Shayin Village is declining, Sha Ninja always feels that he is one of the five major Ninja villages, and his due position is still very stable.

But is this really the case?

At least the former ally Konoha Village felt that Sand Shinobi needed to prove that he had the strength to be taken seriously by others.

Why can't Sandyin Village choose Kazekage Five Generations?
