Naruto Otsutsuki Naruto

Chapter 416 The Way of the Ninja (2)

The place where the five talks were held was also the 'Iron Country', a neutral country in the ninja world.

In the venue, the flags of the five great nations of fire, water, earth, wind, and thunder were hung.

The four daimyos attending the meeting wore 'fan hats' of their respective national symbols and sat under their national flags. They are respectively.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire, Kamikawa City.

Kenwa Uesugi, the daimyo of the land of water.

The daimyo of the Land of Earth, Fujiwara Daichi.

The daimyo of the country of wind, Abe and Gao.

The newly appointed Thunder Country daimyo 'Yamashita Compassionate' did not attend due to the current situation, but the flag of the Thunder Country was still hanging in the venue.

Different from the tense scene of the Five Kages meeting, the four daimyos played poker in full swing. From noon to evening, they didn't formally start the discussion.

The samurai leader Mifune, who was the middleman, finally couldn't bear it anymore and urged: "Your Highness, can we start discussing business matters?"

Shixiu shook his small fan, half covered his wrinkled face, thick bags under his eyes, and looked as if he lacked sleep. He glanced at Mifune, and said listlessly: "Mifune, impatience can't solve any problems. You samurai, don't you also emphasize... Eh? What's the point of emphasizing? Well, I heard that you samurai hold your breath before drawing the sword. If you don't draw the sword, you can defeat the enemy with one move, just like this!"

Shi Xiu's lazy aura suddenly showed a sharp edge, pop!He stood up and threw a pair of sky cards on the table!

All the big names have a look.

"Damn it... You caught the sky card! [Juan doesn't play cards, so I don't understand, so let's do it~]"

Shi Xiu shook his small fan: "Hmph, Feng Shui turns around~..."

"Come again!"

"Isn't it time for dinner~."

"The hot springs in the Iron Country are good. It's rare to come here once. Is there any reason not to enjoy them?"

"Let's go, let's take a bath and have a meal first, then come back and play cards."

"Mifune, are you okay?"

Mifune was helpless: "As long as your Highnesses are not in a hurry, follow me..."

Just like that, the daimyos went to the hot springs and had dinner, all wearing yukata and clogs.

Because of the cold weather, Mifune specially ordered people to set up a brazier in the middle of the venue.

Playing cards started again, and the daimyos talked one after another.

Shi Xiu: "My colleagues, what do you think of the film's joint letter this time?"

Qian He: "Zheng worry that there is no place to cut funds, but they rushed up."

Dadi: "That Onoki, who has always been sensible, has such a tough attitude this time. It seems that he doesn't want to retire safely."

He Gao: "Just eating and not working, isn't that what they want to express? It's unreasonable, but a bunch of dogs who guard the house are riding on our heads."

Shi Xiu: "It seems that you are not very optimistic about it. No matter what, we have to advance and retreat together."

Modesty: "It's true. The ninjas are all ganging up and want to make enemies of the country. If we don't unite at this time..."

Sanfuan couldn't listen anymore: "Everyone...can you listen to me?"

Shi Xiu said: "Sanchuan, if you have anything to say, just say it."

San Chuan said: "Then I'll say it, about the threat of people from beyond the sky, you don't really think it's alarmist?"

Modestly glanced at Mifune: "What, isn't the samurai neutral? How did you help the ninja speak?"

Sanchuan said: "Neutral does not mean staying out of the matter. This is not only related to the interests of the five major countries, but also to the safety of all mankind. I think that your attitude is obviously evasive, and this will not solve any problems."

Dadi: "Oh? The little old-fashioned warrior has started to teach us how to govern the country. Come on, tell me how to solve the problem. Let us listen to the wise opinion of the warrior leader!"

San Chuan said: "Right now, you should let go of your status and unnecessary prejudice. In the face of disaster, everyone is equal, and you won't be spared just because of your noble status!"

Shi Xiu said: "Similarly, Shikahisa from Konoha has also said a lot, and he is even willing to use his wealth as a guarantee... But to be honest, with his net worth of more than 200 people in Nara, he can't guarantee it."

Modestly said: "The so-called threats from outside the sky are also the words of Uzumaki Naruto's family. What came back from the future, hmph, it's a bunch of nonsense!"

Dadi: "Also, knowing that Unlimited Tsukiyomi is about to launch, but only notified those ninjas, and didn't let us take refuge, this kid, you spend too much time!"

He Gao: "Perhaps he created Unlimited Monthly Reading to spread panic and achieve his ulterior motives!"

Hearing this, Mifune's vicissitudes of face sank into the shadows: "Then, according to everyone's statement, you are not going to pass the request of the shadows, right?"

"..." The daimyos were all silent.

Mifune looked forward and said: "Well, I will act as a middleman and tell the shadows to let them arrange their own stay. What do you think? I don't ask you to lend a helping hand in future disasters, but just ask you not to be an obstacle, is that okay?"

"..." The daimyos remained silent.

"Huh." Sanfuan took a deep breath: "Why, you don't want to keep people, and you don't want to let them go. As decision makers, what are you worrying about? Let me, a bystander, speak for you."

Sanchuan stood up slowly, and said sharply: "It is precisely because you are undecided and dare not take responsibility that this meeting took place, but in the end, in the end, you still shirk and argue, and no one dares to stand up and break this deadlock!"

chap!

Mifune stood up and drew his samurai sword!

The big names are like frightened birds: "Three, Sanfuan, what are you doing!"

chap! !

Mifune raised his samurai sword, threw it to the ground and said loudly: "In this case... let the samurai lead this head!"

Modesty: "Three ships...you shouldn't!"

Mifune: "Don't worry, the Iron Kingdom is absolutely neutral and will not favor any side. This means that I treat everyone equally!"

Shi Xiu paused while holding Pai Gow's hand, and said in a low voice, "Have you considered the consequences clearly?"

Mifune said: "I think very clearly that the samurai will advance and retreat with the ninja, because I am also the one who agrees with His Majesty Uzumaki Naruto's proposition!"

"Well, since you're talking about this..."

Kamikawa Ichigo, the daimyo of Fire Nation, put down his poker, sat upright and said, "Actually, personally, I am willing to trust Shikajiu and Uzumaki Naruto."

"However, belief is on the one hand, and the actual problems faced are on the other."

"How long will it take for those guys to come? One year, ten years, or 20 years? If they don't come for 100 years, the ninjas will eat and drink for nothing, and let us support them for 100 years? The national finances are not brought by strong winds, but the taxes paid by the people through hard work. If you don't explain clearly, how to explain to the people!"

"Furthermore, who can guarantee that the ninja won't act unpredictably after gaining freedom and the expansion of force? Yes, if a disaster happens, it is true that the ninja is needed to quell it, but if the ninja itself becomes a problem, who will check and balance the ninja?"

"If you can't discuss these issues, how can you agree to them rashly?"

"This is my statement, Ichigo Kamikawa, on behalf of the Land of Fire. So, are you satisfied, Mifune!"

Mifune said: "His Highness Shixiu means that it's not that we can't talk, but we have to discuss it and come up with a decision that is good for the people and ninjas, right?"

Swish!Shi Xiu spread out his small fan to fan the wind, and lazily said: "Well... If you say yes, then so be it."

Sanchuan looked at the three names of water, earth and wind: "Then, what do you think?"

Fujiwara Daichi: "I still think that the enemy beyond the sky is nonsense. Uzumaki Naruto is just a villain who has power and speculates. The reason why I don't want to let the ninjas go is purely because I don't want to let the friendship between one country and one village be established over the past century. Because they listened to the villain's slander and were destroyed!"

Abe and Gao: "My opinion is the same as that of His Highness Fujiwara. I hope that Sahikaku can turn around, but if one village takes the lead in this matter, other villages will inevitably follow suit. Therefore, it is a common interest for the five major countries, and we must make up our minds together."

Uesugi Kenhe: "I, I..."

As a great name in the country of water, he has personally experienced the terror of Naruto and Madara, so he is afraid that his words will be wrong, and then spread to the ears of those two people, and a large amount of money and land will be stolen.

Therefore, his statement tends to be amicable: "The minority obeys the majority. His Highness Shixiu thinks it can be negotiated. Both His Highness Qianhe and His Highness Dadi think it can't be negotiated. Then, I will reserve my opinion for now. Alas, the new daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder doesn't come to show his face. With him, maybe we can..."

"Seniors, the snowy road is slippery, and this junior is one step late..."

At this time, a polite and surprisingly young voice came.

Everyone looked around, and saw a man with dark skin and short hair, accompanied by a middle-aged man with one eye and a young man in black robe with a cold temperament, arriving at the venue!

That short-haired man is, surprisingly, the newly appointed daimyo of the land of thunder, Yamashita Cixin, and he is accompanied by the wise general 'Tutai' of Yunyin Village, and... Uchiha Sasuke!
