Chapter 80: Peace Negotiations
After that, Konoha quickly expanded its results and quickly occupied most of the country of grass. Onoki never expected that the Iwagakure troops led by his son Kitsuchi would be so shattered at a touch.
...
Iwagakure
Ohnoki looked angrily at the report in front of him. It recorded in detail the battle on the front line. Iwagakure was defeated miserably, and his son Kitsuchi was also seriously injured and captured.
The initiator of all this was not just Konoha, but also the Sound Village.
Chiba Kushi, where did he come from? Dead Bone Pulse and Wood Style, two powerful bloodline limits actually appeared in one person at the same time.
'Haven't the Kaguya clan and the Senju clan been exterminated? Why did such a person pop up again?'
Picking up the peace agreement sent by Konoha on the table, Onoki had to think about the possibility of peace talks now.
"Damn it, first came Kimura Takuya from Amegakure Village, and then came Chiba Kushi from Sound Village. What are these geniuses from the little Ninja Village doing it to me!"
Onoki said angrily, tearing the report in his hand into pieces, as if he wanted to kill Chiba Kushi who was thousands of miles away.
At this time, the door of Tsuchikage's office was pushed open, and Kitsuchi's daughter Kurotsuchi broke into Tsuchikage's office, "Old man, you have to save daddy."
Kurotsuchi hugged her grandfather and kept shaking him.
Onoki became even more irritable, "I know, I know, I'm thinking about how to rescue your dad."
This is not a formal war in itself. He wanted to force Konoha to hand over Roshi and plunder the Land of Grass. He didn't expect it to develop to this point.
Then there is only one way, which is to negotiate and pay a ransom.
"Konoha... Sound Village... How come these two guys got involved? They were fighting each other some time ago, and now they are here to help."
Of course Onoki didn't know all the information, and he still had only a partial understanding of the relationship between the two villages.
"Alas..." Onoki sighed and asked people to prepare various matters for the peace talks.
'In this peace negotiation, I am going to spit out almost all the wealth I robbed in the Country of Grass. I am probably working in vain.'
...
On the other side, Kai is still very comfortable. He has just received the final payment from Konoha, and the next step is to wait for negotiations with Iwagakure Village.
At this time, Konoha asked Kai how to master the Wood Style ability. They were willing to pay 1 billion ryo to buy this method. Kai only replied that he wanted to make this money, but this method can only be used by himself and is useless to ordinary ninjas.
Reminiscent of the fact that Wood Style ninjas did not appear in large numbers in Sound Village, Konoha believed Kai's statement.
Kai found the Daimyo of the Country of Grass whom Konoha intended to support, and activated Mangekyō's ability to wash his soul to change his will, turning him into a Daimyo who hated a powerful country.
It's also convenient. Next is planning.
Soon after, Kai received a message from Konoha that the three countries were going to negotiate in the war zone.
The reason why the two major countries came to Grass Village is to eradicate foreign enemies from Grass Village.
The three sides are Konoha in the Land of Fire, Iwagakure in the Earth Country, and finally Sound Village in the Land of Sound.
Kai then ordered Motegi Shinobi to take their troops and return to Sound Village with money, and at the same time contact Kabuto to ask him to arrange people to incite the emotions of the surrounding small countries and promote the wave of anti-big powers, so as to build momentum for Kai's trip.
Only Kimimaro and Jugo were left from the fighting force as Kai's bodyguards on this trip, although Kai did not need their protection at all.
But this can be regarded as necessary. As the leader of a village, how can he not have guards.
By the way, Kimimaro's problem of treating kekkei genkai disease has been successfully overcome, and now Kimimaro is a quasi-kage-level guard with all his strength.
...
In the afternoon of the next day, Kai and his two guards arrived at the designated peace negotiation location on time, where a simple conference room had been set up.
He was the first to arrive. Kai looked around and found no sign that anyone wanted to come and cause trouble for the Three Kingdoms meeting.
Kai found his own seat, which was the same seat as the other two major countries. Kai was quite disappointed, otherwise he could have used the topic to his advantage.
Soon after, Konoha's Tsunade arrived second, followed by two guards, Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Haiichi.
Kai smiled and greeted, " Hokage, long time no see."
Tsunade did not take into account the current cooperative relationship between the two countries and said, "I don't want to see you. When I see you, you think of my money."
As soon as Tsunade saw Chiba Kushi's face, she thought of the money she had just given away, and that Konoha had been severely blackmailed by him.
This is a huge amount of wealth that can make even a gambler feel distressed. You can imagine how big the figure is.
Kai was not angry and just retorted, "Isn't the result good? Not only did Konoha win the war, but it also caught a big fish for you."
Thinking of this, Tsunade's mood improved slightly, and she could rely on the conditions of this victory to give Iwagakure a hard blow.
But that was a foolish move. What Konoha wanted to do was to turn the Country of Grass into its own puppet and establish a country that was leaning toward itself, so that it could send troops to Iwagakure at any time.
It was precisely because Kai discovered this that he secretly controlled the Daimyo of the Grass Country that the Konoha wanted to support.
In the end, Onoki arrived belatedly, and the escorts were his two apprentices, the future leg shadows Kurotsuchi and Akatsuki.
"Sorry, I'm late." Onoki apologized without any sincerity and sat down in his seat.
"When people get old and have inconvenient legs, they should prepare for retirement. Why bother to start a war to disrupt the ninja world?" Tsunade said sarcastically again without being polite.
"It's not like you Konoha first intended to get involved in the Earth Kingdom and rob and kill my Iwagakure Jinchūriki." Onoki sneered.
"Okay, everyone." Kai opened his mouth and said, "Today we are gathered here to discuss a plan for peaceful coexistence. Let the past be in the past, we should focus on the future."
Tsunade and Onoki looked at each other, and both saw the unwillingness in the other's eyes. But they also understand that if the fight continues, the two countries will not be able to steal greater benefits.
Kurotsuchi next to Onoki stared at Kai with hatred. After all, it was Kai who shattered her father's arm.
"Then, let's get started." Kai said with a smile, a trace of imperceptible pride flashing in his eyes.
Iwagakure plundered the country of grass and paid compensation to Konoha. Konoha hired Sound Village again, causing a lot of bloodshed.
In the end, only Kai made a profit, and both countries worked in vain. Even the Daimyo of the Grass Country supported by Konoha was secretly controlled by Kai.
'I won twice, but you, the two major countries, owe me once.'
"First of all, I have never seen your Jinchūriki. Konoha's high-end combat power has not left Konoha, so how can we talk about robbing and killing Jinchūriki." Tsunade said firmly.
"I would also like to ask you why Iwagakure invaded the Country of Grass and robbed the Country of Grass's treasury? This is the real invasion and brings disaster to the ninja world."
Onoki had already prepared and produced a secret letter: "At this time, the daimyo of the country of grass gave me a secret letter, asking me to lead the army to help them exterminate the traitors. It was my incompetence that failed to complete the task."
As Onoki spoke, he shed a few crocodile tears.
Kai just rolled his eyes after hearing this, which meant that he was just making it up at will without any proof. Kai really wanted to activate the art of impure world reincarnation on the spot and identify it on the spot.
"I think your killing of traitors is a fake act of robbing wealth!" Tsunade did not back down at all, wanting to overwhelm Onoki in terms of justice.
