Konoha’s New Third Hokage

Hanzo’s expression was slightly startled, apparently he did not expect that the task entrusted by the daimyo was to assassinate the leader of the Yuyin ninja village, he couldn’t help being silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: “Your highness daimyo, what are you talking about? ?”

"What are you talking about? Hanzo, you're not an idiot, you can't even understand something so clear?" The smile on Daimyo's face faded and he said.

"It's impossible for the Ugakure Ninja Village to accept such an entrustment. As a subordinate, but assassinating the leader of a village, no one dares to take on such a responsibility." Hanzo said, looking at the daimyo's expressionless face.

"Maybe I shouldn't say it's an entrustment." Daimyo shook his head and said, "As far as I know, your relationship with Besa is very bad. There are even rumors that Besa intends to kill you?"

"I don't know where the daimyo heard the rumors from." Hanzo's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but start thinking about who revealed the internal conflicts in the Ugakure Ninja Village.

Although Ninja Village is a subordinate of the daimyo and needs to obey the orders of the daimyo, the daimyo cannot completely interfere with the internal situation of the ninja village. They all followed such regulations. Logically speaking, the daimyo should not know about this matter.

——Could it be that the daimyo has spies in Yuyin Ninja Village? Who would fall to the daimyo and reveal such secrets?

Just when Hanzo was in doubt, the daimyo said slowly: "Hanzo, you know, the original purpose of the Ninja Village was to cooperate with the country for mutual benefit. The country is a good thing that both parties can benefit from. The Yuyin Ninja Village was like this at the beginning, but recently, the Yuyin Ninja Village has become more and more presumptuous. It refuses the entry of businessmen from other countries, which makes me very unhappy. .”

Hanzo seemed to understand why daimyo asked him to assassinate Bessa. The reason was similar to his own. It was because Bessa stubbornly refused to communicate with other countries, especially the land of fire. He was naturally quite dissatisfied with anything, because he didn't know where he got Hanzo and had conflicts with Bessa, so he was called here, and he even secretly visited in secret.

"So, what does Your Highness mean?" Hanzo felt his heart beating a little faster, and he knew what he meant by asking this sentence.

"Get rid of Bessa, set things right." The daimyo made a beheading gesture with a stern expression, "After you get rid of Bessa, I will issue a document to make you the new leader of Yuyin Ninja Village. In this way, You can also justifiably take the position of the leader of Yuyin."

After hearing this sentence, Hanzo felt relieved, because he had the promise of the daimyo, although the daimyo could not interfere with the internal selection of the ninja village, for example, the hokage of the Konoha ninja village was determined internally, and then sent to the daimyo through an official However, no matter what, this official certification is a basis of jurisprudence, and the lack of it will cause a lack of orthodoxy. For Hanzo, the recognition of a daimyo is conducive to stabilizing his position.

Hanzo has long had the intention to kill Bessa, but there are still many things to consider, such as how to assassinate Bessa, how to solve the impact of Bessa being assassinated and led, and so on. But now, the conditions promised by the daimyo can undoubtedly help Hanzo stabilize his position. At this moment, the interests of the two are the same. Since they are consistent, there is no reason for him not to agree.

"Your Highness Daimyo, are you serious?" Hanzo asked.

"Really." The daimyo nodded solemnly, "I have investigated your situation, you are the number one expert in Yuyin Ninja Village, and you are willing to accept businessmen from other countries to let you control Yuyin Ninja Village, compared to that It is much better to rely on the old and sell the old, as long as you are willing to fight for me with Yuyin Ninja Village, I am willing to support you."

Hearing the words, Hanzo was silent for a while, then half-kneeled on the ground, and said: "Okay, thank you for your appreciation, Your Highness, I will definitely do my best to kill the national traitors."

"Okay, okay." Daimyo showed a kind smile, stretched out his hand to help Hanzo up, and said, "Hanzo, as long as you work hard, you will be the unshakable leader of Ukakure Ninja Village!"

After the two parties reached an agreement, Hanzo fabricated the false mission details here, so that he could have an explanation when he returned, and then bid farewell to the daimyo, turned and left.

After Hanzo left, the daimyo waved to the nobleman beside him and asked him to go out, then he went back to the room prepared by the nobleman by himself, pondered, and said, "In this way, Konoha Ninja Village can also get what it wants. something?"

As soon as the voice finished speaking, two figures, one big and one small, appeared in the room. They were dressed in simple strong clothes, they looked powerful, and they wore masks on their faces. Except for their figures, they were almost exactly the same. The tall figure said: "Thank you!" His Highness Daimyo is willing to come forward to persuade Hanzo."

"It has nothing to do with me. You didn't tell me. Did Hanzo have a rift with Bessa? Even without me, they would fight sooner or later. If I took the initiative, I could sell favors, because you said so , I’ve been subdued to this point just now.” Daimyo said.

"What you said is very true. Whether it is Yuyin Ninja Village, His Highness Daimyo or our Konoha Ninja Village, you can get what you want. It can be regarded as everyone gets what they need." The tall man said with a smile.

Daimyo gently shook the folding fan, looked at the two people who were said to be from Konoha Anbe, and remembered that they had sneaked into his bedroom a few days ago. Talk about a collaboration.

With the strength of Konoha Ninja Village, an existence like the daimyo of the land of rain can't put on a noble face in front of others. Even if the other party is a humble ninja, it is also a ninja of the daimyo of the land of fire, which represents fire The face of the daimyo of the country is just like the so-called fox pretending to be the tiger. The other party can completely ignore him, the king of a small country, and just treat him cautiously. In this war-torn country, this person has been able to secure his daimyo position for many years, so he naturally knows what is beneficial to him. He originally planned to accept some conditions that Konoha Ninja Village may propose, but the conditions given by the other party are honest. , can be called generous.

The daimyo of the Land of Rain couldn't believe it. After repeated confirmation, he believed that the other party had no conspiracy, because they said a very straightforward truth: "A country like the Land of Rain that rains all the year round will not benefit at all if it is conquered. The only thing that is valuable is your traffic status, if you are willing to provide the route, we can compensate you with other conditions, it cannot be said that you can make your country rich and powerful, but at least it can guarantee the superior life of your name.”

In the final analysis, Daimyo is also a selfish person. He only cares about himself most. As for the people of the Kingdom of Rain, what does it have to do with him, as long as he lives well, and the meaning of Konoha Ninja Village is also very clear-we live Your country is rich in resources. Apart from major transportation routes, if there is anything you can covet about your country, it is better to cooperate and help each other instead of trying to beat you.

Therefore, the daimyo agreed to the request of Konoha Ninja Village and helped Hanzo provide a legal basis for him to assassinate Bessa, the leader of Yuyin Ninja Village. Large-scale trade will start through the main traffic routes. Even if a large amount of tariffs cannot be collected, the daimyo of the land of rain can still get a lot of money from it, and there is no need to worry about the disease brought by the climate of the land of rain—because Konoha Ninja Village agreed Well, it can be treated for free.

"Hanzo can really beat Bessa?" Daimyo thought for a while, feeling a little lack of confidence, and asked.

"Please rest assured that this person has strength, ideas, and supporters. He cannot lose to the leader Yuyin who is gradually losing popularity." The tall one said.

"Since that's the case, I'm at ease and just wait for the result." The daimyo nodded slightly.

"That's right, we will wait for the good news." As they spoke, the two saluted slightly, and then disappeared into the room.

After a while, two people appeared in a certain street, changed their previous clothes, turned into ordinary civilians, walked slowly, and after many turns, they entered a secret passage in a small alley. The safe place was prepared, and when they arrived, the two of them took off the camouflage on their faces and revealed their real faces.

Among them, the tall one has a handsome face, revealing an elegant temperament, and his pupils are almost pure white, which seems to have a strange feeling, while the other one has an immature face, flat eyes, and slender corners of the eyes, revealing a coldness. I mean, the two are Hyuga Kei and Hattori Heizo.

After Kazemori Masaki took office as the Third Hokage, he promoted Hattori Heizo to become a Chunin, and then he was recruited into Anbu and became his own direct unit, and Hinata Kei also joined it, and his supercilious ability brought a lot to the Anbu team For the convenience, at this time they had received a mission and came to the Land of Rain.

"I don't know when Hanzo will do it. I want to leave here early. The weather in the Land of Rain is really not very good." Kai Hinata moved his body a little, feeling that the humid air was very uncomfortable.

Hattori Heizo did not feel that way. After the hard training of traditional ninjas, he has become accustomed to keeping calm under any circumstances. Compared with this, the Hyuga family has a relatively short history of becoming ninjas, and their pursuit of noble etiquette makes them seem a bit "Delicate", but it doesn't mean that they don't have the quality of ninjas, but there is a gap compared with the traditional ninja Hattori Heizo.

"Before completing the teacher's order, you should be patient a little bit." Hattori Heizo said succinctly, leaning against the wall while recalling the time when he received the task.
