Chapter 176: Unity

September 10th.

The weather doesn't seem to be as hot and humid as it was in July and August, with a refreshing breeze rippling across the pond.

In a media quiet room, the daimyo and shadow of Shikoku, who held a remote meeting again, looked much more solemn than a few days ago.

Two days ago, the latest information about the mysterious organization sent from Konoha has been sent to the daimyo and shadow of these countries respectively, and I believe that after reading the above things, their thoughts have also been settled.

Whether it is to continue to go deep into the land of rain or to stop in time, it means that time is precious and cannot be wasted, and an inexplicable sense of urgency is suppressed in the hearts of these people.

The daimyo of the four countries remained silent during the meeting, giving up the venue to the Four Shadows to negotiate, no matter how politically they were made, but in order to achieve the ultimate goal, they still had to resort to excessive military means to solve the final problem.

Although it is a good thing to surrender without a fight, there are too few such examples, and no matter how weak some small countries are, their bones may not be soft. Especially in a war-torn country like the Land of Rain, many wars have caused this country to start huddling together for warmth, and in terms of character, it is also more tenacious and resolute than people from many countries.

"It's been a few days, so let's give our own answers. First of all, we will not give up on our Yunyin side, according to the intelligence of the investigation, there are indeed many abnormalities in the country of rain, and the identity of the leader Payne is even more mysterious, so the guy who doesn't even dare to show his face has explained a big problem. ”

The first to exit was the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, who was lying on a large sofa with his hands on his chest, and behind the sofa stood a tall, dark-skinned, twenty-eight or nine-year-old woman, who was the secretary of the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow, Ma Buyi.

She stood in the back, not saying a word, just listening quietly to the content of the meeting.

But in this case, it is not certain that he has anything to do with that organization, or even suspect that he is a member of that organization. Lei Ying's words were too alarmist. You know, let's focus our attention on the Land of Rain is something that some behind-the-scenes promoter wants to see. He wants us and the organization to lose. Otherwise, two different personnel lists would not have been sent over one after another. ”

Luo Sha said calmly.

Hearing Luo Sha's words, the fourth generation of Lei Ying thought of something extremely bad, and the muscles on his face twitched violently.

The previous two lists of spies in the Ghost Country, they also searched Yun Yin. After that, he sent the Yunyin Shadow Department to start a secret investigation, only to find out in the end that these spies who were pulled out were not on the same level as the spies in the Oni Country, and they were all spies from the villages of Konoha Root and Sand Hide.

However, such a humiliating thing, of course, the fourth generation of Thunder Shadow will not say it directly.

The rest of the shadows also mentioned this slightly, and they will not go deeper, after all, their experience is exactly the same as that of the four generations of Thunder Shadows, and they have a lot of grudges against the person behind the scenes.

It can't be said that this spy intelligence is meaningless, whether it is from the country of ghosts or from the current allied spies, as long as the spies can be caught, they are all valuable, but this value is far from achieving their expected results, and it has even been put on the table.

Later, it was speculated that the two pieces of information may have been made by the same person.

The purpose was simply to focus their attention on the Land of Rain, and upon closer inspection, there was indeed some confusion within the country.

Payne, the leader who only showed his voice and no face, was the biggest anomaly.

The Land of Rain is not closed, but Yuyin is unusually closed and refuses to communicate with the outside world. In this village, all you can see are Yuyin locals, and you can't see any outsiders.

A place like this, which is closed and does not communicate with the outside world, can easily breed problems and hidden dangers.

"The pusher is probably done by the Oni Country's side, didn't Hokage say that the Oni Country has also fought with that organization many times, and in the Ichio incident, the Oni Country also provided some help. It's just that when he can't be sure whether there is a problem with Yuyin, the old man doesn't think that directly interfering with Yuyin will be a good result. Now that the international situation has finally calmed down, the old man doesn't want to toss casually. For the time being, a small number of elites infiltrate and surveillance. ”

Onoki said.

This represents the attitude of the land country, which is dominated by infiltration and surveillance, and in the case of uncertainty about the truth, there is no need to provoke what seems to be a bit troublesome.

In normal times, he may be a little happy, after all, weakening the country of rain will have a great effect on the stability of the country of earth.

But now that the land country is being watched by the ninjas of the Oni country to the west, there is not much room to free up their hands.

"My opinion is the same as that of Old Man Onoki, the current ninja environment can't be arbitrary. Sending a small number of proficient lurking ninjas to infiltrate in many ways will take a little longer, but it will be safe. ”

Tsunade also spoke out his opinion.

She had considered directly negotiating with Yuyin and investigating in her village, but this kind of behavior was no less than declaring war on Yuyin. Moreover, there is a deep blood feud between Yuyin and Konoha, and if Konoha proposes such a way of negotiation, most of the missions will be directly blasted out by Yuyin's people and start a war between the two villages.

At this juncture, you can avoid trouble, try to avoid it.

"I agree with Tsuchikage and Hokage. The Oni Country's side bites very tightly, if Yun Yin can lend a little troops, and Tsuchikage and I can contain some of the main forces of the Oni Country, we can free up manpower to deal with the Yuyin problem. ”

Luo Sha expressed his wishes, and hoped that Yun Yin would also send troops to contain the power of the Demon Country.

He knew that Yun Yin also had his own fleet, and he could start from the sea area and join forces with Wu Yin to contain the sea power of the Ghost Country.

"Hmph, Yun Yin's power won't be wasted like this." The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow scoffed at Luo Sha's words, and continued: "The most important thing now is to recover the lost tailed beast, as long as you can find the tailed beast, you will also have enough confidence to deal with the country of ghosts." Now that she is here, her mother-in-law and mother are simply embarrassed. Since you have all retreated, then, the matter of investigating Yuyin head-on, will be handled by us Yunyin! ”

After saying that, the four generations of Thunder Shadow did not wait for the reaction of the rest of the shadows and turned off the screen.

……

The land of thunder, the clouds.

In the office, Ma Buyi, who felt helpless about the previous behavior of the four generations of Thunder Shadow, said: "Lord Thunder Shadow, please calm down, the people of those villages obviously intend to let us in front, if Yuyin has no problem, then it will only be us Yunyin who will offend Yuyin." If there is a problem with Yuyin, then Yunyin will suffer a big loss at the beginning. An organization that recruits S-class rebels and holds multi-tailed beasts, its power should not be underestimated. ”

In Ma Buyi's view, those shadows are all difficult on the surface, but in their hearts, they must hope that Yun Yin will be this up-and-coming bird.

The rest of the villages that followed were not charged with interfering in their internal affairs, nor were they worried about their own safety.

However, for Yun Yin, it is not a good thing.

And the four generations of Thunder Shadow, who calmed down, also seemed to have thought of this.

He is easily irrational and irrational, but that doesn't mean he likes to be tricked.

"So, what's next?"

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow left the problem to Azabui to deal with.

The secretary of the Thunder Shadow is used to deal with the trouble he caused.

Ma Buyi coughed and said, "Fortunately, Lord Thunder Shadow, you didn't say it completely, then just take the previous words as verbal rhetoric, just say that investigating Yuyin head-on requires a lot of preparation, just delay the time." After all, the most anxious thing now is not our Yunyin, but the sand and Iwayin who are directly suppressed by the country of ghosts. ”

"You mean ......"

"Since they say that they are targeted by the country of ghosts and can't spare their hands, then, let their wishes come true. After that, he secretly released the news that our Yun Yin was about to form an alliance with the country of ghosts, abandoned the three villages, investigated this organization with the country of ghosts, and frequently sent missions to secretly visit the country of ghosts, and made a gesture of officially forming an alliance with the country of ghosts. ”

Sabui said without emotion.

The words of the Wind Shadow and the Earth Shadow before were not taken seriously by Azabui at all. Even if it is targeted by the country of ghosts, how can a ninja village of the level of Sand Hidden and Iwakuin not be able to free up their hands? According to Azabuyi's estimates, even if they are suppressed by the Oni Country, it is not a problem for each of these two villages to make up five or six thousand ninjas. Konoha can make up more ninjas, I'm afraid.

"Azabui, do you think Yuyin has something to do with that organization?"

The four generations of Thunder Shadow narrowed their eyes.

"Yes." Amu's eyes were still calm: "At first, I was just suspicious, but then I found out that some places in the Land of Rain were very strange through some investigations. ”

"Strange?"

"That's the rain country's imports of arms, commodities and food. Lord Thunder Shadow, a small country that has been devastated by several wars, has solved the problem of food and clothing in the country within a decade, so as to achieve political stability and harmony among the people, which is not an easy task. It can even be said that for the country of rain, where resources are poor, the economy is collapsing, and the people are displaced, it is impossible to answer the question without the intervention of a strong external force. ”

The four generations of Thunder Shadow were thoughtful.

This is indeed an unexpected entry point.

"The existing merchants in the Land of Rain are basically influential, and the resources in the Land of Rain are poor, and if they want to do a good job in business and drive economic development, if they don't support each other and give them initial funds, they will not be able to develop successfully. Because the merchants of the Rain Country, who have abundant funds, have almost escaped as early as the time of the war. There is also a problem with the grain imported in large quantities, what means did Yuyin get it? Where did they get the money after being squeezed by the root group? ”

The more the four generations of Thunder Shadow thought about it, the more surprised they became.

Although he didn't understand this kind of thing, he also knew that if there was no large amount of money, or resources that could be exchanged for money, it would be impossible for the Rain Country to develop to the level of food and clothing in more than ten years.

And Yuyin, not so rich.

"In addition, Daruyin uses the secret art of the mountain clan of Konoha to explore the memories of some lone rain ninjas, including a rain ninja. In the end, it turned out that in these Yu Yin's brains, there were zero memories of the Payne leader and the oracle. Either this part of the memory has been emptied, or ...... They hadn't seen those two men either. But that god, along with the divine envoy, is also in charge of the rain and has become the protector of the rain country. ”

The abnormal trade of goods is so mysterious that even the rain ninja cannot know its true face of the gods and messengers...... There are all kinds of signs that there is a big problem within this village.

"Over the past few years, we've been able to search for countries, basically once, and now there are fewer and fewer places where there is still room for searching. Since there are so many problems in the Land of Rain, you might as well give it a try, even if it is really as guessed, we are so far away from Yunyin and Yuyin, and the war will not burn here for a while. On the contrary, it is the villages of Konoha that have to fight the fire as soon as possible. ”

"Then do as you say, send an embassy to the land of ghosts, make an alliance with it, and make the dreams of the Kazekage and Tsuchikage come true. How Yuyin investigated before, and how to investigate now, without my order, you can't act rashly. ”

Abuyi's assumptions and inferences are very good, but the four generations of Thunder Shadow after calming down also know that they can't be hot-headed and make wrong moves.

If the investigation order is wrong, it is likely that the Yunyin forces in the Land of Rain will be wiped out.

Those few ninjas in their own village are not willing to be the first birds, so as the Thunder Shadow, he has no problem protecting the ninjas of his village.

As Ma Buyi said, in terms of the situation, Yun Yin is the one who does not need to be impatient.

"Alliance?"

On the morning of September 11th, Shiraishi immediately got a document sent from the diplomatic department, which mentioned that Yun Yin and the Land of Thunder hoped to reach an alliance with the country of ghosts, and that they would advance and retreat together in the ninja world in the future, and in the back, put forward the conditions for a bunch of lions to open their mouths.

Show your own posture as a superior to the fullest.

Shiraishi thought of the shadows of the villages of Konoha, Yunyin, Iwain, and Shayin in the past few days, and held a secret remote meeting, while Yunyin gave an answer to intervene in Yuyin head-on, and the strategy of the rest of the villages tended to be conservative surveillance.

Now on the second day of the meeting, Yun Yin's alliance document was delivered, which surprised Bai Shi, and then picked up the signature pen and tapped it on the table, his frowning brows loosened, and he suddenly guessed something.

"It seems that Yun Yin also has a good think tank over there, is it the Thunder Shadow secretary Ma Buyi who has mastered the art of heavenly delivery? It's really interesting. ”

With that, Shiraishi sent the information he got to the main body of the Eternal Kaleidoscope experiment, which was still busy in the laboratory, and asked the main body to make corresponding arrangements as soon as possible.

About ten minutes later, two commands came from the main body.

Shiraishi, who was sitting in his office, nodded, and began to write the paperwork, which was then sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs draw up the personnel of the mission to the Land of Thunder and Yunyin, and set off immediately in the afternoon, and there is no need to keep it secret, and make this matter as big as possible, especially on the two sides of the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth, and focus on publicizing it.

Subsequently, Shiraishi issued an order in the military, reinforcing 1,000 heavily armed ninjas on each side of the Sand and Iwain fronts, reinforcing tens of thousands of soldiers, accompanying a small mechanical unit for fire support, and hundreds of air combat personnel, completely occupying air supremacy.

Two days later.

The information on the eucalyptus table made Onoki look dazed.

Instead of focusing on Yuyin, Thunder Shadow sent people to the Land of Ghosts to form an alliance.

What's even more bizarre is that the country of ghosts also showed its willingness to form an alliance with the country of thunder and Yun Yinyong, and even sent a mission to set off for the country of thunder that afternoon.

Then Onoki looked at the second piece of information.

The western defense line found a large number of reinforcements from the country of ghosts, and the number of air combat troops doubled at once, and they circled and flew at the junction, looking like they were going to attack the border of the country of earth from a high altitude.

In addition, a mechanized unit began to conduct live-fire exercises without stopping artillery, causing peace at the junction of the two countries.

Not only that, but similar problems have arisen in the northwest defense line where Shayin is located.

“……”

After reading the two documents, Onoki felt that his brain was about to crack, and he couldn't think.

Although he knew that the alliance between the two countries seemed to be still being discussed, and it had not been directly determined.

But if this continues, if it is not stopped, there will be a real big problem.

Seeing the posture of the Ghost Country continuously sending more troops to the border, they are determined to win the alliance document between the Land of Thunder and Yunyin.

Onoki felt that he could not continue like this, and that he had to stop the two countries from forming an alliance.

But how to stop it, Onoki couldn't think of any good way for a while.

That Thunder Shadow was probably stimulated by some nerve during that meeting, and then it became abnormal, right?

Of course, it could also be that Thunder Shadow is playing a game.

That Thunder Shadow has a short temper, and in an anxious state, he is prone to emotion, but his brain may not lose his cool.

At this moment, a figure slammed open the door of the office, and Loess walked over quickly, sending the third piece of information that had just arrived, and his tone seemed to be very eager and flustered.

"Oh no, father, Yun Yin's fleet is haunted near the waters under the jurisdiction of the Water Country!"

“……”

Onoki felt like his head was going to crack again.

Is Yun Yin planning to take the place of the Ghost Country and keep an eye on the main force of Wu Yin?

In the end, he just spit out a sentence weakly:

"Go and get in touch with the daimyo and have another remote meeting."

The next morning, 10 o'clock.

The daimyo and shadows of the four countries gathered together again in the form of a remote meeting, but the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

However, everyone present basically has the ability to pamper and not be shocked, so they don't take that embarrassment to heart at all.

"Ahem, since that meeting, the old man feels that it is somewhat inconvenient to let Yun Yin intervene in Yuyin's affairs alone. So in the past two days, I revisited the Daimyo and decided to support Yun Yin's approach, and I will send troops to join it. ”

Onoki broke the silence and finally made the atmosphere no longer a pool of stagnant water.

But this also means that Yan Yin must not only support in name but also in action, and fully support Yun Yin's arrangement, and join the team to advance and retreat together.

Although there may be a certain risk in doing so, such a risk is nothing compared to forcing the Land of Thunder and Yun Yin to the side of the Land of Ghosts.

After all, no one expected that Thunder Shadow was going to lift the table after the meeting that day.

Then, you can only take a step back and support Thunder Shadow.

"Seconded."

Luo Sha's face was a little stiff, obviously the past two days have not been very good.

Thunder Shadow's actions really scared him, but he hoped that Thunder Shadow wouldn't play like this next time.

"The Fire Nation agrees."

Tsunade agreed instead of the Daimyo of the Fire Country, and unexpectedly glanced at the thunder shadow who was calm on the screen, and then immediately fell on Azabuyi behind him.

Such a precise arrangement is not like something that Thunder Shadow can operate, and most of it has an inseparable relationship with this Thunder Shadow secretary.

The other party's talent is probably not much inferior to Lu Jiu.

However, such direct interference in a country can easily create public opinion in the international community. Lord Thunder Shadow, what excuse are you going to use to cut in? ”

"In the name of eradicating international criminals, our four villages entered the area to search and execute possible international criminals. If it is determined that there is no problem, Yuyin will be compensated in terms of money and food afterwards, and a commercial trade relationship will be established with him. ”

The fourth generation of Thunder Shadow said directly.

It is worthy of Thunder Shadow's approach, simple and straightforward.

Although it is vulgar, as long as the goal can be achieved as quickly as possible, some insignificant things do not need to be serious.

What's more, there are indeed some strange places that make people scratch their heads and even inside the rain country.

This completely closed practice is like hiding some unknown secret in the rain.

They are very curious about this 'secret'.

Regarding the arrangement of the four generations of Thunder Shadow, Luo Sha and Onoki quickly agreed. Tsunade hesitated and thought for a moment, then nodded in response.

"Since the three of them have agreed, then, I have only one request, that is, don't lose three or four after the decision, if anyone secretly harms allies like Wu Yin and retreats at a critical moment, then don't blame us Yun Yin for not being emotional."

The words of the four generations of Thunder Shadow completely used the fog as a negative teaching material.

After all, people's hearts are different, and they are still shadows from different villages, and the four generations of Thunder Shadow don't know if these people really agree, or continue to talk about the lake, so there are some things to say openly.

As Thunder Shadow, he didn't believe much in these villages where there were always dangerous rebels, especially Konoha, which were simply S-class rebel manufacturing factories, each of which brought huge trouble to various countries.

Install the latest version. 】

"This, Lord Thunder Shadow, please rest assured."

"I hope so. Then we can discuss the details of the arrangement, and finally determine the time. If we are sure that there is no problem with Yuyin, then we can also evacuate the manpower as soon as possible, so as not to waste time and energy. ”

After that, the parties began to discuss again, and this discussion lasted for half an hour before the meeting ended.
