Red sand dust

Chapter 1061 Preparation

Political negotiations are like this. It's tit-for-tat on the scene. If you say the most ruthless words, you won't be so aggressive in private.

Mutual compromise is a must, reach an agreement that everyone can accept, and then call it quits, take stock of the spoils, and review the gains and losses.

Kirigakure Village actually suffered no real losses, it just lost face and needed the help of the Suna Ninja to stabilize its position.

Daimaru stepped in to deal with the aftermath, but it also seemed like he was being taken advantage of.

Whether it's Ao's acting that's too realistic or Terumi Mei's strategizing, it ultimately creates a new balance and stabilizes the alliance.

It's not as if they were being plotted, and Daimaru didn't want Danzo Shimura and his men to be too active.

Sand ninjas do need time to improve their strength, but that doesn't mean they are indifferent to the trends in the ninja world.

The general strategy must be to allow all parties to have something to do. Don't be idle and focus on Sunagakure Village.

The result of some operations was that the representatives of the Mist Ninja had several secret talks with Tsunade, the Fifth Hokage. In the end, the three incomplete Jinchuuriki were stripped of their "root" organization identities, received official ninja numbers, and were dispatched to "Quick Assistance" "Team" was put under the command of Daimaru, and the term was specially agreed to be five years.

As for how Tsunade and Shimura Danzo compromised in private, Daimaru didn't care. On the surface, what everyone saw was that only Yamanaka Kaiichi was appointed as the standing advisor of the Hokage House from a semi-idle state.

The older generation has withdrawn from the decision-making team, and new powerful people have gradually entered the decision-making center. The influence of seniors like Shimura Danzo is definitely not as good as before.

Such changes are both good and bad. The short-term turmoil will definitely leave the Konoha Village with no time to care about many major events outside. But in the long run, the old people will retire one after another, and the young and powerful elites will begin to take control of the power and have a great influence on the replacement of Konoha ninjas. There are benefits.

When the matter came to an end, Kirigakure Village promised a lot of benefits in order to thank Daimaru for "speaking up". Daimaru didn't pay much attention to most of them, except for a few copies of a few ocean giants captured by the seniors of Kirigakure Village when they opened up the sea many years ago. The animal specimens are very good, and the free trade port has opened up with more benefits. When the ports and islands in the concession were demarcated, they turned a blind eye to some tricks and didn't care too much.

Kirigakure seemed to want to integrate into the ninja continent even if it suffered some losses, and did not want to be regarded as a barbaric islander outside the sea, which made Daimaru a little curious.

Kirigakure Village, which has been in seclusion for many years after implementing the Blood Mist Policy, is so eager to turn around. Is it because it has realized that the new era of the ninja world is about to come, and does it want to get a piece of the pie?

Being isolated and self-defeating is safe, but it is also very likely to miss opportunities for development.

The fragmented archipelago country has a natural tendency to split. Without external pressure, it will fight fiercely. The small blood-lined families in the Kingdom of Water, who have divided the islands and ruled as kings, have been fighting for countless years. They are all about to be defeated. It's almost destroyed, and it's not without reason.

Of course, if Kirigakure wants to imitate a certain island country and act as an "offshore balancer" and strive to create a divided ninja continent, it is not impossible. At least it must first show its hard power as a "shit stirrup".

Somewhere deep underground in Konoha Village, Shimura Danzo, who had been relieved of his official duties by Tsunade not long ago and was ordered to go home and reflect on himself, ordered several subordinates to quickly deal with the aftermath, and then attacked the man who was kneeling on one knee. Aburame Torine and Yamafaze, and another young man from the Nara family said:

"Because I lost power, the family behind you will also turn their backs and leave?"

Before anyone could answer, Shimura Danzo warned gloomily:

"It's okay for those who are not determined to leave. They will pay the price for their stupidity sooner or later, but don't forget that you are still the 'roots' of Konoha. They will always be rooted in the ground and contribute everything to the village. They are the real tools." Ninjas, those weaklings who have been corrupted by power and conspiracy, cannot protect Konoha Village from falling in the undercurrent of the ninja world..."

Several people lowered their heads and responded firmly:

"As Danzo-sama orders..."

The posture is adequate and the words of surrender are sincere, but the true thoughts in the heart are unknown.

After beating up his valued subordinates, he emphasized that his authority had not been lost. The "Root" organization was still the feared organization. The "Darkness of Konoha", which had been somewhat unfavorable recently, had to go into hibernation temporarily.

The plan to assassinate Orochimaru failed completely, and it was no longer possible to eliminate the hidden dangers left by the cooperation between the two.

After the Forbidden Technique: Earth Reincarnation has been improved, the difficulty of killing Orochimaru head-on has become so high that it is almost impossible to complete, unless you can find an opportunity to use the Mangekyō Sharingan Eye Technique: Betsutenjin to control him.

He has been considering the time to use it, but after so many years, the Mangekyō Sharingan taken from Uchiha Shisui still has no chance to be used.

"Since Orochimaru defected, I have no one else who can share the pressure for me. That pharmacist Kabuto is a good helper, but it's a pity..."

Those who have brains are not strong enough, or they cannot be reassuring. It is unrealistic to expect those talented family members to follow them wholeheartedly. The orphans raised since childhood are loyal, but they are empty-headed and are only qualified to be tool men.

There are also some good seedlings among the younger Konoha ninjas, but most of them are rising stars who have been seriously influenced by the thoughts of the Third Hokage. They have defected to the "Root" organization, and the possibility of agreeing with Shimura Danzo's thoughts is almost zero.

The strict management and selection system for many years has ensured the purity and loyalty of the "root" organization, but it has made almost no achievements in cultivating unique talents.

Shimura Danzo, who increasingly feels the lack of talents under his command, has a few useful confidants, and their growth rate is not satisfactory.

"Even if we are competing for the position of the Sixth Hokage, we still need a group of subordinates to help. It seems that we need to recruit more reliable talents. 』

After transplanting the first-generation cells, his body regained its youthful vitality, and Shimura Danzo, who had healed from many years of hidden injuries, realized that he still had a lot of time to prepare, and that living a long time was an incredible skill.

Underground in Tian Country, in a secret base, Orochimaru, who no longer forcibly suppressed his injuries, finally eased the crisis of his body on the verge of collapse with the help of Kabuto Yakushi.

This time, Orochimaru, who truly felt that his end was approaching, had to start making preparations to seize Uchiha Sasuke's body.

"It's such a pity. Without this unnecessary battle, we could have lasted another two or three months..."

At that time, Orochimaru will be able to adjust his condition to its optimal state and obtain maximum benefits.

Medicine Master Kabuto persuaded:

"It doesn't matter if you wait, Orochimaru-sama..."

"Don't you see the look in Sasuke's eyes? The wolf cub has grown up and is not very peaceful anymore. If I were even weaker, are you sure you can suppress him?"

If one accidentally let Uchiha Sasuke go, all the years of preparation would be wasted.
