I sell sweets in Konoha

"The Kumo Ninja Mission is here." The Chuunin said with a slightly panicked expression.

"Well, what next?" Sandai didn't react at all. Instead, he seemed to be focused on the oysters.

"The Kumo Ninja Mission said that the Hyuuga and Hichizu clan killed the leader of the Kumo Ninja Mission, and they want an explanation." The Chuunin were not as calm as the Third Generation and said: "If no explanation is given, they will refuse to sign any treaty. "

"Yes, I understand." Sandai took a sip of beer and suddenly asked, "How's it going over there?"

"I'm just doing my job." Danzo said coldly, "You don't need to worry."

"Think carefully about what is missing in the treaty and what needs to be filled in?"

Chapter 125: To hit a snake, you have to hit it seven inches

The Third Generation didn't keep Kumo Ninja waiting for too long, it was probably just one night.

Anyway, the third generation didn't directly pay attention to the cloud ninja who came to make trouble, and this group of people were also disappointed.But because these people were causing trouble, the third generation directly issued a martial law notice.

The various prohibitions that had been relaxed due to the advent of peace suddenly returned.

Curfew, rationing, and conscription, Konoha Village seemed to suddenly withdraw from the peaceful celebration and enter a state of war.

And what about the Cloud Ninja Mission?

They were still making trouble, and the third generation didn't seem to care about these people.He neither spoke nor paid any attention to him. He looked a little bit like a coward, shutting himself up in the Hokage Tower and pretending that nothing had happened.

The Kumo ninja mission seemed to feel that they had seized on the third generation's eagerness for peace and the lack of peace within Konoha, and they became increasingly arrogant.

This group of people had been making trouble all night without any substantial gains.

It was still causing trouble the next day!

And for this...

"Sandaime-sama." Junko stood at the window and looked downstairs at the Kumo ninja envoys who were arrogantly mocking the Konoha ninjas and said, "Are you really allowed to allow these people to continue making trouble like this?"

"Yeah." The third generation was also looking at the Yun Ninja mission below from the window and said, "Does the Yun Ninja only have a small fight?"

"It looks like a child getting upset when they can't eat something delicious."

"This Raikage's political skills are not necessarily very good."

"Eh..." Junko said a little bit incomprehensively: "Sandaime-sama, are you not afraid that Kumo Shinobi won't make a fuss but are you afraid that they will make too little fuss?"

"Making trouble too young shows that they have a guilty conscience and lack of confidence." Sandai hung up his pipe and said, "Junko, you must know that everything must be done within your ability."

"Even when negotiating with others, being too bluffing is not a good thing."

"Sometimes you have to take your claws back and scratch again to get a harder grip!"

Although the Kumo ninja made trouble again, it never reached the level that the third generation hoped for. Junko didn't quite understand how much the third generation wanted the Kumo ninja to make trouble. To increase troops at the border?Reproduce the confrontation between the two countries?Another fight?

Not sure, but the Kumo ninja seemed to maintain some kind of restraint despite the fuss.

The troubles only exist over diplomatic disputes and there has been no movement in terms of threats of force. It seems that what Sandai said is not wrong.

In the final analysis, Kumo Ninja still lacks confidence.

But the farce must eventually come to an end.

That night...

At the Hinata family's homestead, Sandai and Junko met Hyuga Hizashi.

There was no sign of panic on Hinata Hizu's face, and he seemed to be neither humble nor arrogant.It is neither weak submission nor proud stubbornness.

There was no smile on Sandai's face, he looked more serious and cold-blooded.

There is no gentleness in the past. At this moment, Sandai is more like a decisive and ruthless politician who considers everything from the perspective of political interests.

"Head of the Hyuga family." The third generation's voice was also a little cold and he said with an obvious formula: "You are aware of the death of the leader of the Kumo Ninja Mission."

Hinata Hiashi didn't say anything, didn't say yes, and didn't answer no, as if he acquiesced.

"The Kumo ninja used this matter as a threat to ask Konoha to hand over the murderer." The third generation said a little calmly: "Otherwise, we will break the contract and fight again."

"Although Konoha has not signed any treaty with Kumo Ninja, it would not be a good thing if Nobu really caused a military conflict between the two countries."

"Looking at the Hyuga clan leader..."

"Sir, the Third Generation!" Suddenly a member of the Hyuga family couldn't stand the aggressive look of the Third Generation and said, "Why don't you ask the leader of the Kumo ninja why he died in the Hyuga family? It was obviously the Kumo ninja who broke into the house..."

"Shut up!" Hinata Hizu yelled angrily, "Don't be rude!"

"I'm sorry, Third Generation. Please forgive me for my rudeness."

"It's okay." Sandai said nonchalantly, "I just hope that the Hyuga clan leader knows what to do."

"Tomorrow, I don't want to see Kumo ninja using this as an excuse to continue gambling in front of the Hokage building."

After saying that, Sandai took Junko and turned around and left Hinata's house.

After leaving the gate of Hinata's house and walking a short distance, Junko looked back at the gate of Hinata's house.She suddenly understood something.

"Actually, the Third Generation is just trying to scare the Hinata family, and he is also using this as bait to change the treaty, right?"

Junko suddenly asked: "Otherwise, how could the Kumo ninja break into Hinata's house and die there?"

She remembered what Danzo said yesterday, 'Look carefully at what is missing in the treaty and make up for it. 'And today, after seeing the third generation say this, Junko instantly understood that it was indeed not that simple for Kumo ninja to break into Hinata's house.

"Oh ho~" Sandai suddenly showed a smile and pretended to understand: "Tell me, why do you think so?"

"Even if the people celebrate spontaneously, the guards of Konoha will not be so weak." Junko sorted out her thoughts and said: "So the fact that the leader of the Kumo ninja can enter the core area of ​​​​Hyuga at will only shows that this is deliberate indulgence by you and Danzo-sama. "

"And for deliberate indulgence, the first thing is to beat up the Hinata family, and at the same time kill the chickens to scare the monkeys and deter the young people in Konoha."

"Secondly, although the Hinata family was asked to hand over a murderer, they did not specify who would take the blame."

"Kuno Ninja wants to make trouble with the Hyuga family, but in the end, Yun Ninja will not get what he wants. They will only get a corpse that has no use value." Junko said slowly: "You tolerated Yun Ninja to make trouble, but you forced Hinata. You hand over a body. But the ultimate goal is to sign a treaty you want."

"This is to retreat in order to advance. It seems that Yun Nin is aggressive, but you are patient and patient. But in fact, you have already prepared a backup plan."

"The Kumo ninja showed his teeth and claws but did not dare to use force. Although Konoha seemed to be giving in, he was really strong enough to fight again."

"So the end result is that the Kumo ninja get no real benefits but have to sign a treaty that they don't want."

"And you can use this matter to not only defeat the Hinata family and deter the scoundrels in Konoha, but also sign a treaty you want."

"It's like killing three birds with one stone."

"Hehehe~" Sandai laughed. He looked quite satisfied and said, "Why not?"

"I..." Junko shook her head and said: "I don't know... I just think this approach is a bit excessive? I admit the importance of safeguarding core rights and interests and ensuring centripetal force. But is the Hyuga family really It’s hard to tell whether there is alienation.”

"Will suppressing the Hyuga family at this time without conclusive evidence cause a break between the Hyuga family and Konoha?"

"It may serve as a deterrent and a warning, but isn't it worth it to cause estrangement?"

"And since Kumo Shinobi plans to sign an unequal treaty, why not take a tough stance from the beginning?"

"What you said makes sense." Sandai took a puff from his pipe, exhaled a puff of white smoke and said: "First of all, there are some things that must be nipped in the bud. The Hyuga family was not present for whatever reason, and even if the head of the family did not We could have sent someone here. But we didn’t! Such an approach has constituted a substantial provocation to Konoha’s core rights.”

"If you don't give a warning in time, people who are already a bit disloyal will definitely follow suit."

"You cannot wait until there is an obvious problem before handling the matter. As long as there is the slightest sign, you must put it out without hesitation."

"As for the Kumo ninja, if they show an aggressive attitude from the beginning." The third generation thought for a moment and said, "The Kumo ninja may grit his teeth and sign the contract, but he will definitely be dissatisfied. Moreover, Konoha has declared to the outside world that it is a peaceful and friendly attitude. , if Yun Nin is aggressive, he will definitely be dissatisfied and will break the contract and fight again at any time."

"Secondly, internationally, Konoha will be considered to have turned into a bandit, plundering its opponents wantonly in the name of peace."

"If you show your tiger-wolf attitude, you will inevitably be feared and formed alliances with other countries."

"Two fists are hard to beat with four hands. Konoha is not afraid of hitting, but it cannot fight endlessly, let alone attack from all sides."

"The location of Konoha is, at best, well-connected to transportation hubs. At worst, it is the land of the Four Wars! To the east are the Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Water, and to the south are the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth."

"Konoha is surrounded by the center. Once the Four Nations join forces, it will be a serious disadvantage for Konoha to fight on multiple fronts."

"So Konoha can't be aggressive. If Kumo ninja isn't aggressive either, then everything can be easily discussed."

"If not, then Konoha must retreat in order to advance, agree first, be patient, and let the Kingdom of Clouds forget about it and appear aggressive and fight back. For Konoha, this is an unbearable counterattack, and for the Kingdom of Clouds, this is Those who push their noses and face without knowing their capabilities will bring it upon themselves. When you do something, you have to do it beautifully, and when you want to catch someone, you have to take advantage of others."

"Tolerance does not necessarily mean cowardice. Sometimes taking a few steps back is just for the next impact."

The Third Generation was determined to make Kumo Ninja miserable this time, and who could blame him?I can only blame Yun Nin for being too presumptuous!

the next day...

During the meeting, the Third Generation directly threw the treaty they had drawn up in front of Kumo Ninja.

"This..." The deputy leader of the cloud ninja looked at you and his face turned red immediately. He suppressed his anger and said: "Third generation sir, isn't this a good treaty that the two countries originally drafted?"

“战争赔款，每年10万两，赔付30年？！总计300万两？绢帛20万匹。年提供可可豆100万吨？”

"All Kumo ninjas must withdraw from the Kingdom of Sichuan and must not interfere in the internal affairs of the Kingdom of Sichuan? The country of Thunder's tariff on the Country of Fire must not be higher than 10%?"

"Hokage...Are you sure you didn't write this treaty because you were an old fool?"

"Sign or not." The third generation put the pen in front of the deputy leader of Yun Nin and said: "Although I am old, I am not old enough to be confused."

"Hokage! Are you planning to start another war with Yun Ninja?" The deputy leader of Yun Ninja said with a stubborn look: "Don't bully others too much!"

"Too much bullying?" the third generation said with a sneer: "Who put Konoha under house arrest and sent the envoy team? Who took the lead in crossing the border to attack our Konoha troops?"

"And who is asking for the price during the negotiation? Who is it that only sends a team of people over?"

"Why did the leader of your Kumo ninja mission die in the Hinata family's mansion?"

"I have retreated again and again for the sake of peace. Who is being aggressive?"

"You don't have to sign the treaty!" Sandai said with a sneer: "You can send a message to your Raikage and let's fight if you want! But this time I can't guarantee whether the Kumo ninja can retreat as smoothly as last time!"

"You want to talk about fighting?! I've never been afraid of anyone!"

Chapter 126 Neji

The so-called treaty is something that speaks in terms of hard power.

The Kumo ninja danced very fiercely and shouted arrogantly, but in the final analysis, it was just loud thunder and small raindrops.The last wave of family members and children still failed to take advantage in the end. It is not easy to lead the whole team to escape unscathed.

Raikage also knew that even if they fought again, they wouldn't be able to gain any advantage.

But he also knew that the third generation wanted peace and the most important spirit of politicians was to be shameless, so Raikage still talked to the third generation in the spirit of politicians being shameless.

Although the third generation had a tough attitude at the beginning, he finally gave in without intending to push the Kumo ninja too hard.

It's a pity~ Although this was a concession, the treaty that was beneficial to Kumo Ninja from the beginning still irreversibly turned into a treaty that was not beneficial to Kumo Ninja. In the end, Kumo Ninja had to bite the bullet and sign this treaty. The unequal treaty, in every sense of the word, was what Yun Nin found himself.It can be said that there is no benefit to being a person in an accident, and a perfect practitioner of being beaten by a brick in the face of a dog.

The Kumo ninja left with Hinata Hizashi's body, and there were many secret seals of the Hyuga family.

Byakugan, this most important thing and what Kumo Ninja wants to get the most has no special use anymore.

This wave of cloud ninja really lost both his wife and his troops.

For Konoha, although there were some twists and turns along the way, peace finally came as promised.But not everyone rejoiced at the arrival of peace.

"So?" Junko looked at the kid in front of her and said, "Are you coming to me now with hatred?"

"I remember that you said you wanted to become stronger in order to protect Hinata of the clan."

"Ningji."

"...." Neji bit his lip and did not answer.

Peace was finally poured out with blood, and this blood included Neji's father's share.It's just that not everyone can understand this sacrifice.

As in the plot, Neji passed on the hatred of losing his father to the clan.

It was transferred to the secret seal of the caged bird that he carried.

"I can choose to understand you." Junko said: "I don't want to advise you to be generous or anything...but do you understand? This decision...or the death of your father was not entirely caused by the head of the Hyuga family. of."

"And me and the Third Generation, it can be said that I am also one of the murderers of your father's death."

"So you plan to continue to be my disciple?"

"Why?!" Neji said with hatred: "Does my father have to die? Why does it have to be my father who dies? Why? Why?! It was obviously the Kumo ninja who sneaked into the clan first, right? What was the fault of the Hyuga family? where?"

"There's no reason!" Junko said, "This is politics, and it's for the village."

"If you insist on saying why? I can only say that the Hinata family was unlucky, and they happened to be shot that day."

"You Hyuga family didn't make proper arrangements."

"..." Neji didn't say too many words. His eyes looked at Junko with unconcealable anger.
