Red sand dust

The best way is to use the infinite charm of Uzumaki Naruto to influence each tailed beast and make them actively cooperate.

Whether you have such ability basically depends on your appearance. The gap between Daimaru and Uzumaki Naruto is really huge.

The treatment of the "protagonist" is completely different from that of a sidekick like Daimaru who can only stand up to the light of day for three minutes.

None of the nine tailed beasts were friendly to Daimaru, and even Shukaku the One-Tailed Beast, who had a lot of dealings with him, maintained at least a minimum of communication with Daimaru for Gaara's sake.

"It's a bit troublesome! 』

It is not easy for Daimaru to please a normal person, let alone those tailed beasts with deep prejudices?

Daimaru shook his head, suppressing these things in his heart for the time being, and returned his attention to the lively scene in front of him.

Although the bearded Sarutobi Asuma is a bit different from handsome, he still has a strong aura of a pampered young man.

Even though he had a rebellious period when he was young, his free and easy temperament from the inside out is still a little different from a real gangster.

Generosity is often a quality that is more approachable than intelligence, wisdom, strength, and reliability.

The respect and recognition were palpable amid the genuine cheers and blessings all around.

"This is the right move!" 』

When the class gap is so large that there is no intersection between them and there is little in common in daily life, maintaining appropriate exposure and a positive image is beneficial to ninjas who are interested in official careers.

There is "Darkness of the Ninja World" in the front, and there are "Three Ninjas", "Konoha White Fang" and "Golden Flash" in the back. Even Hatake Kakashi has the reputation of "Copy Ninja" and "Konoha Technician", Sarutobi Asuma's current impression on the public, apart from his big beard, is that this time he married Yuhi Kurenai in public.

It was a good start, but it was not enough.

"We must keep up with publicity and momentum building, and at least have a resounding "nickname"! 』

Sarutobi Asuma couldn't hold up top titles like "Konoha White Fang" and "Golden Flash", and even a decent record, few of them could actually hold it.

If you insist on supporting it, it is best to stay close to its true nature.

Hatake Kakashi on the side saw a sly smile on Daimaru's face and rubbed his chin playfully, and asked curiously:

"What other crazy idea did you come up with?"

"Huh? Don't think of me as always thinking up bad ideas to cause trouble..."

Daimaru came back to his senses, shook his head helplessly and responded,

"Asuma-senpai, to be honest, you really have the character of the third generation Hokage of your village..."

The external image is that of a rough ninja who is good at fire escape and wind escape, but in fact, Daimaru can confirm that even if Sarutobi Asuma does not have the talent of all five elements like his father Sarutobi Hiruzen, he is not far behind.

Wind escape and fire escape are often used against the enemy, just because of the tendency of personal fighting style, it does not mean that water escape, thunder escape and earth escape cannot be used well.

There is no way that the child of a falcon is a quail. The inheritance flowing in his blood is enough to leave ordinary ninjas far behind.

The best thing is that Sarutobi Asuma's rebelliousness in his youth is well known to almost everyone in the Leaf Village. The prodigal son turns back and finds his way back. In many cases, it is an even more outstanding advantage than Nesamao Hong, not to mention Big Beard has both.

"You are a Sand Ninja, but you are quite concerned about the affairs of the Leaf Village..."

Normally, nothing good would happen to someone being targeted by Daimaru at this time. Hatake Kakashi looked at the sand ninja boy in front of him with a strange expression and asked,

"Since when have you and Asuma become friends and know each other so well?"

"As allies, you should always take care of them!"

Daimaru shrugged and responded slowly,

"It's rare to see a person who has been a guardian ninja of the Fire Nation Daimyo, a Konoha ninja, and whose father has also been a Hokage..."

"After going through ups and downs, does the inheritor of the true meaning of the Will of Fire have to be given the title of "Passenger of Fire"? I'm afraid he can't afford it..."

The so-called "will of fire" is endless, and Sarutobi Asuma's special identity is really a good card.

The most unexplainable thing is self-righteousness and uprightness. Who can deny the invisible "halos" around Sarutobi Asuma that add to his expectations?

In the past, Daimaru only thought about how he might be able to elevate this bearded man to the position of Hokage. Now that he thinks about it, he feels more and more prescient.

In memory, when Hatake Kakashi took over as the Sixth Hokage, his past record was indeed impressive, but at that time, the Mangekyō Sharingan no longer existed, and the upper limit of combat power had undoubtedly dropped a lot.

Perhaps, teaching three talented students was the key to his almost undisputed rise to the top.

The right time, right place, right people, and almost no one can compete with him.

But now, Daimaru does have hope of making Asuma Sarutobi, who was not killed by Hidan, look even more outstanding.

Achievements?

Just brush up, there are many traitors in the ninja world, and there are also high-profile masters in the "Akatsuki" organization to set him off.

Bloodline?

The Sarutobi family is not as good as the top wealthy families like the Hyuga family, but it's actually pretty decent, and their father is a former Hokage, so he's obviously very convincing.

reliable?

He is already a stable man who is married and has children. He is much better than those plague chickens who are busy all day long and only crow without returning to their nests or laying eggs.

"Hello……"

Hatake Kakashi waved his hand in front of Daimaru's eyes and asked seriously,

"The expression on your face is so relaxed that it's a bit disgusting. You don't really want to do anything, do you?"

"fine……"

Daimaru waved his hand and replied perfunctorily,

"I just remembered something happy! By the way, Kakashi-senpai, I wonder if you have any idea of ​​running for the position of Hokage?"

"Me? Can you pull me down..."

The wry smile on the "Konoha Technician's" face, which even the double mask could not hide, said self-deprecatingly,

"Managing the 'Relief Team' has been my limit before. The position of Hokage should be left to someone more capable and enthusiastic..."

The position of the dignified Hokage was actually said to be like a hard job. Sure enough, in my memory, I had only been working as the Sixth Hokage for a few years, and in the prime of life, he passed the position to his student Uzumaki Naruto early. The usual style.

The right time, right place, and right people are not always static. In the general direction, Daimaru is indeed unable to do what it wants, but it is not difficult at all to "make fire" quietly, and even the risk of exposure is not great.

Daimaru, who was thinking about how to make arrangements, excused himself and left before the collective wedding was over.

…

In the secret underground base, Uchiha Sasuke took off the bandage in front of his eyes and was freed from the long darkness. Even the light that was not too bright still hurt his eyes.

After adapting for several minutes, he barely allowed his vision to react. Uchiha Sasuke stood up, moved his somewhat stiff body, checked his condition, and found nothing unusual, and then walked out of the door.

Outside, it was the moon at the zenith, a starry night sky, flowers, birds, insects and fish, showing their presence unwillingly in such a season.

A few steps forward, there is a large, calm lake, reflecting the stars in the sky. At the junction of water and sky, the shadows of undulating mountains and mottled trees are reflected.

The vengeful boy, who had not experienced the comfort of the night breeze for a long time, wandered by the water for a while, and finally waited for the mysterious man wearing a whirlpool mask.

"You finally woke up! Did you feel that terrible eye power?"

"I finally feel the joy of holding my own destiny in the palm of my hand..."

Uchiha Sasuke covered his right eye with one hand and looked at the night scene ahead through his fingers with great emotion.

"How can you obtain this kind of power just through hard work and luck? How can you successfully take revenge and revive the Uchiha family?"

Now think about it, how dangerous it was to defect to Konoha Village and follow Orochimaru recklessly.

If anything goes wrong in the past three years or so, he will be finished. Not to mention killing Uchiha Itachi, he will not even be qualified to see him.

Although I have learned from Daimaru what the strength of the top people in the ninja world is like, it is just an exchange of intelligence and information. I have not experienced it in real life, so it is still a little biased.

Uchiha Obito waited for Uchiha Sasuke to finish his emotion, and then said leisurely:

"Although the Uchiha family is called a cursed clan, and the Sharingan, the blood inheritance limit, is also regarded as an ominous power, no matter how terrible its side effects are, its real power is real..."

Got the strength, suffered the side effects, that's fair enough.

It would be better to say that if you pay, you will be rewarded. This kind of thing is really lucky. The ninja world is so big, and there are many unlucky people who devote their lives and get nothing.

"It's great to have such an awareness at such a young age. Since you think so, there are some things I'll tell you directly..."

Uchiha Obito said with a slightly cold tone,

"Now, we need to continue to capture the tailed beasts to gain stronger power, and you can also get enough experience and completely master the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan before you can go to Konoha Village to find the truth from Shimura Danzo,' The power of the Xiao' organization can also provide paid help..."

"Is it the Leaf Village again?"

Over the past few days, he has learned about the shocking events that happened in Konoha Village, as well as the news that the leader of the "Akatsuki" organization was defeated and killed. Uchiha Sasuke is not ignorant of the current situation in the ninja world.

"The leader with the Samsara Eye has been defeated. I don't think you will place your hope on me..."

"You are really cautious, but this is good. At least you can live a little longer and don't die due to an inexplicable accident!"

Under the increasingly dissatisfied gaze of Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Obito quickly got to the point.

"We have found the hiding place of the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki. Your mission is to capture the Eight-Tails."

The first mission was both an ability test and a testimonial. It would not be easy for Uchiha Sasuke, who was an enemy of the five major ninja villages, to return to the Leaf Village.

"Then what?"

"The 'White Tiger' who took away the leader's body and also took away the Samsara Eye, with the support of some guys with ulterior motives, wants to suppress us and completely control the 'Akatsuki' organization. This is destined to be impossible to succeed. Therefore, in order to dispel Their ambitions, you need to stand with us..."

"Fine!"

Anyway, they are just boring dramas about fighting for power. As long as we can use the power of the "Akatsuki" organization to capture Shimura Danzo, who knows the truth about the Uchiha family's demise, and force him to extract information.

As for the guy in front of him and the so-called "White Tiger", to Uchiha Sasuke, they are both untrustworthy guys. They are all using each other anyway. There is no need to say something too clearly. When the need arises, betrayal is also necessary. There is no psychological burden.

After reaching the minimum deal, Uchiha Sasuke continued his training today. After joining his friends Suigetsu and Jugo, he headed towards the Land of Thunder.

…

In the rain ninja village in the north, after Nagato's death, Konan, who had taken care of the affairs of the country of rain, with the help of Ibaraki and "Yan Yanluo", firmly controlled the rain ninja, even the peripherals of the "Akatsuki" organization After winning over most of the forces and affiliated personnel, the situation was almost stabilized.

It does seem a bit incredible that a country that is not too small could gain actual control so easily, but for a ninja who is powerful enough, it can still be done.

The ninja village that once cultivated the "demigod" Sansho Hanzo, even though it has declined, still has some foundation. At least its financial strength is slightly stronger than that of the Grass Country next door.

Of course, if it weren't for the existence of the "Akatsuki" organization, the major ninja villages would have no time to take care of the Rain Country, and it would not be possible for Konan and others to succeed easily.

"Do you have to do this next?"

Ibaraki quickly gave a positive answer to Konan's question:

"Without the power of the Samsara Eye, even if we join forces, there is no guarantee that we can suppress Uchiha Obito and others. If you have our help, the other party can also find external help. If the preparation is not as good as the other party, it will be bad..."

"Oh well!"

No matter how reluctant she was, she had no choice but to accept it. After asking her fanatical followers to bring several death row prisoners as sacrifices, Deidara, an almost ignorant blond boy, stepped forward and placed in front of the filthy soil reincarnation rune that had been drawn long ago. , cut his wrist, and use the red blood to cast the forbidden technique.

Accompanied by a brief panic scream, two figures emerged from the cocoon room wrapped in filthy soil, and several others turned into fly ash and disappeared into the air.

Of the six sacrifices, only two were successful. This result is really unsatisfactory.

In order to avoid the risk of using forbidden techniques, Daimaru asked Deidara to bear it on his behalf, but there was a problem; also, the quality of the sacrifices was uneven, and the blood and flesh samples obtained were not enough.

However, seeing the appearance of the red-haired Nagato and the dull-looking Uchiha Itachi's filthy body, the people present breathed a sigh of relief.

The two strongest ones have been obtained, whether it is the Rinnegan or the Mangekyō Sharingan, which has given them a lot of confidence in their next plans.
