Without their approval, Iwagakure cannot even cross the Land of Fire's territory to travel to other places.
No matter what, Kirigakure cannot get around the Uchiha clan.
...
On the territory of the Uchiha clan.
In the reception room.
Kawasaki looked at Ao with a big smile on his face.
"Oh, that's more like it. It's so much more pleasant to be honest with each other."
"What I love most is trading."
“There’s an organization that has a cooperative relationship with our Uchiha clan. They specialize in taking on these kinds of missions. I can recommend this job to them.”
Qing asked with a hint of doubt, "What organization? How strong are they?"
Kawasaki stroked his chin: "Any one of the members inside is stronger than your Mizukage."
Qing instinctively retorted, "Absolutely impossible!"
Kawasaki waved his finger: "The ninja world is vast, and there are many experts. Your current Mizukage's strength is just average."
"Um...."
Kawasaki paused briefly.
"I guarantee with the honor of the Uchiha clan that as long as they make a move, you will never be defeated."
Qing was shocked. Could there really be an organization with such immense power?
Chapter 133 Hidan! Sasori! Pain! Obito! Danzo!
Qing swallowed hard: "What price do we need to pay?"
"Yes, they always have a clear price list for what they do."
There are three options for participating in a war.
"The first option is for them to send men to hold off all the top experts of Kumogakure, including Yugito, the Jinchūriki of the Two-Tails, Killer Bee, the Jinchūriki of the Eight-Tails, and even the Raikage A, until Kumogakure withdraws its troops."
The second condition is that no matter how many people the Cloud Village sends, they will take charge of the entire battle, ensuring that the Cloud Village is driven back and that the Mist Village's casualties are only one-tenth or less of the Cloud Village's.
The third point, based on the second point, not only forces Yunyin to retreat, but also ensures they dare not invade again for five years.
The three services are priced at 500 million, 2 billion, and 4 billion respectively.
Qing felt bitter. The current Wuyin was in chaos, with a long-term fiscal deficit. He could only grit his teeth and come up with 500 million.
But the key point is that even if they could block two Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts and the Fourth Raikage, Kirigakure still couldn't win in a head-on confrontation.
This is war, not a simple matter of addition and subtraction. The Cloud Village can still bear the loss of some resources.
However, Kirigakure has already revealed itself to be an easy target, and more forces will be eyeing Kirigakure in the future.
Excessive losses will only attract more greedy eyes.
At least the second option must be chosen to ensure the continuation of the fog concealment in the future.
However, Wuyin really didn't have any money.
"Lord Kawasaki, we simply cannot afford that much money."
Ao said this, referring to Kawasaki's earlier mention that he knew about the situation in Kirigakure.
They clearly understood the financial difficulties faced by the Hidden Mist Village.
Kawasaki nodded matter-of-factly: "I know you don't have money, so I have another way."
“The expenses required for the organization will be borne by our Uchiha clan, and that’s what we Uchiha want.”
As Kawasaki spoke, he unfolded a map.
Then he drew circles on the two small islands to the left of the Land of Water.
"I believe that Wuyin will choose the second or third option."
"This is the second condition."
Then, he drew an even larger circle, including the two small islands next to it, making a total of four islands, the same as the one he had mentioned to Yun Yin before.
"This is the third type."
Ao's face was grim: "Lord Kawasaki, is this an order for Kirigakure to cede territory?"
Kawasaki said with a smile, "There's nothing I can do. I'm the butcher, and Kirigakure is the fish. You can take your time to think about it."
"However, I have no idea how long Kirigakure can hold out."
Qing's expression changed, but he eventually calmed down. Indeed, once Wuyin was destroyed, everything would be reduced to ashes.
"Lord Kawasaki, I have no authority to decide on 15. Could you please send someone to help alleviate the pressure?"
Kawasaki narrowed his eyes: "No problem, I will send someone to handle this matter later."
In the Hokage's office.
After Chojuro left, the Third Hokage finally had time to talk to Orochimaru.
"Orochimaru, do you have any information?"
The Third Hokage took a drag of his cigarette.
Orochimaru's sudden intervention clearly indicated that he had obtained important information.
"Shisui and Itachi from Otogakure, along with the other Uchiha members, have all disappeared."
The Third Hokage felt a chill run down his spine, wondering if they had gone to the battlefield in the Land of Water or were lying in ambush near Konoha.
"I understand. I will be careful and keep a close eye on the Uchiha clan."
The Third Hokage vaguely suspected that the Hyuga clan might have already sided with the Uchiha.
The situation is extremely unfavorable for Konoha now, and he has no choice but to use the power of the Sarutobi clan.
A dangerous glint flashed in Orochimaru's eyes: "Old man, I've already made my move."
The Third Hokage asked, "Now can you tell me what you want to do?"
Orochimaru laughed and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that we're preparing to hand over the secret recipe for the Uchiha clan's cuisine to the daimyo of the Land of Fire."
The Third Hokage was startled: "What if Kawasaki resorts to desperate measures? The Uchiha have four Mangekyou Sharingan."
Orochimaru waved his hand casually: "I have already grasped the weakness of the Mangekyou Sharingan, Kawasaki can only suffer in silence."
The Third Hokage wondered, "What are the weaknesses of the Mangekyou Sharingan?"
Orochimaru didn't answer the Third Hokage's question and walked straight out, saying, "You'll find out then."
The Third Hokage watched Orochimaru continue to do as he pleased, and helplessly rubbed his temples.
Sigh, I just can't control them.
...
Rejected, Chojuro left the village dejectedly.
His personality isn't suited for this, and he has no experience in it.
I thought Qing was going to handle this, but Qing left the team halfway through.
He left only one Jonin to accompany him to see the Third Hokage.
Even the words he spoke to the Third Hokage were from the Ao-kyo sect.
It must be admitted that the Third Hokage was not vicious, which allowed Chojuro to overcome his personality flaws.
He bravely said what needed to be said.
unfortunately,
The Third Hokage remained unmoved, only saying that they would discuss it further.
Chojuro had no choice but to leave Konoha and head to the place he had arranged to meet Ao.
Upon arrival, he noticed a person dressed in black fiery cloud robes standing next to Qing.
He wore a straw hat and a ring engraved with the character "空" (empty).
"Everyone's already in the novel group 8170, let's go to 40545."
The man didn't want to waste a moment. As soon as Chojuro and the other man arrived, they immediately headed towards the Land of Water.
While gesturing for Chojuro to follow, Ao asked, "What did the Third Hokage say?"
Chojuro shook his head somewhat dejectedly: "The Third Hokage only said that he would discuss it again."
The fact that the Qingpai Chojuro went was merely a formality; he had already anticipated the answer.
Fortunately, the Uchiha agreed to provide assistance, but Qing was unsure about the organization's strength.
"Lord Feipu, are you the only one from your organization who came?"
Kawasaki, using the pseudonym "Flying Waterfall," chuckled and replied in a voice quite different from his usual one:
"How could that be? I've already contacted my comrades, and those who are closer can arrive at the battlefield tomorrow."
Qing was startled. Was this a coincidence or premeditated?
Qing asked cautiously, "What is your relationship with the Uchiha clan?"
Kawasaki at this time was a tall, old man with a gray beard, who looked to be at least sixty years old.
His voice was deep and slightly muffled due to the Akatsuki mask he wore.
"This is not something you should be asking."
Finally, to reassure Ao, Kawasaki comforted her further:
"Don't worry, now that we've accepted your mission, we'll do our best."
"After all, our organization only collects money after the task is completed, so you don't need to worry about our reputation."
Kawasaki made it up on the spot, as if he were a true member of the organization.
"What is the name of your organization?"
