"correct."

As if remembering Orochimaru holding Asaru in his arms while he was studying when he first entered the door, Aida Masaki couldn't help but smile again:

"I wonder what kind of abilities Orochimaru-sama will unleash?"

"It seems that the ninja's ability to accept this 'Zanpakuto Chakra Ability System' is quite good."

"We have to find ways to lower the threshold."

With all kinds of thoughts passing through his mind, Aangda Shouhei rubbed his forehead and headed back home.

Three days later, in the afternoon.

Fire Nation County Road.

Between the dense forests, a large group of people crossed the road. The noise of the motorcade caused a series of chain reactions in the forest. Large numbers of birds took off and hovered in mid-air.

Located on this avenue, the two charioteers at the front of the entire convoy held high the family emblem and flag in their hands to lead the way.

Just by looking at the numbers on the flag, even illiterate civilians can roughly recognize that this group of people are high-ranking nobles from the Kingdom of Earth. Surrounded by people in front and behind, there are more than a hundred people in the group alone.

Among them, the most luxuriously decorated cart was surrounded in the center, and several Iwagakure ninjas were always on alert.

Inside this large car was the negotiator sent by the Kingdom of Earth to the Kingdom of Fire.

In the same car with him was the son of the third generation Tsuchikage.

Iwagakure Jonin, Loess.

However, at this time, the envoy, who was elegantly dressed and graceful in posture, looked a little uneasy.

"Lord Loess."

After hesitating for a long time, the envoy from the Earth Kingdom asked in a low voice: "If your plan succeeds, Konoha will not attack us. Right?"

"Yes."

Huang Tu is more than two meters tall, with a strong and generous body, and his voice is as strong and deep as a mountain: "In most cases, matters between ninjas will not involve the nobles of various countries."

"Even if we all die here, Konoha will definitely send you out of the country as a gift."

"Please rest assured, Lord Deyue."

"But."

The nobleman from the Kingdom of Earth, whom he called ‘Lord Tokuyue’, still had a somewhat struggling expression on his face:

"Is it possible that the 'sword' you are talking about is Konoha's sacred weapon?"

"Zanpakutō."

"Yes, yes! Zanpakutō."

Envoy Deyue swallowed slightly: "Our negotiation trip is already difficult, so why add extraneous complications?"

His question is actually not unreasonable.

This envoy of Deyue was originally a nobleman of Daming Mansion who was sent by the Kingdom of Earth as a representative to conduct the "negotiations on the division of territory of the Kingdom of Rain".

This kind of errand was meant to be a fat one.

As a result, the group of Iwagakure ninjas responsible for protecting him did not tell him until yesterday that the Iwagakure ninjas were also tasked with seizing other important items.

The mission level is even more unexpectedly S level.

Although I don't know what they are going to do.

But isn’t this just plain deceiving?!

Now what they say sounds better than the last, but when the time comes, who knows what special circumstances will arise?

"I'm so sorry, Lord Deyue."

Although Huang Tu was apologizing, the meaning in his eyes was very clear: "This mission is S-level, and it is the result of Lord Tsuchikage personally going to discuss with His Highness the Daimyo."

"Even if it is you, we are not allowed to reveal anything."

"Please forgive me."

"."

Upon hearing this, the envoy from the Kingdom of Earth suddenly stopped talking.

Naturally, he felt a lot of resentment in his heart.

But compared to his little temper, Loess was more worried about Konoha's affairs.

Unlike the non-combatant beside him.

As one of the top jonins in Iwagakure, Huang Tu has already learned the entire process of Konoha's 'Sword Selection Trial'.

In other words, Konoha had no intention of hiding anything.

And Namikaze Minato's performance after completing the [First Solution] was naturally exposed to everyone.

The ability to cut space directly increased the threat level of Namikaze Minato by more than one section in each village's memorandum.

Even slightly inferior to that 'Broken Cloud Falling Moon'.

With such a performance, how can other ninja villages not be covetous of this [Zanpakutō]?

iwagakure,

That is the hidden village with the most obvious manifestation of poverty among the five major countries.

To this end, they formulated a package plan overnight.

He even did not hesitate to expose many secrets that had been hidden for many years.

The reason why we are so eager is to rush the action to this negotiation meeting.

"Beep--"

Hearing the whistle in the distance, Huang Tu followed the car window and looked out the door into the distance.

The lush green scene, which was rarely seen in the Land of Earth, made him feel open-minded, and even his breathing seemed to be a little smoother.

At the end of the road, you can already see the Konoha Gate.

And further away in sight.

A slightly abrupt and huge ‘tree stump’ stood on the edge of the village.

Eye-catching and unusual.

Huangtu's pupils narrowed slightly.

That's the mission target, right?

Today’s update (1/2)

It’s a big chapter of 3k5. I originally wanted to write it now and publish it now, but I felt that no one would read it in the middle of the night, so I decided to publish it at eight o’clock.

There are another two chapters or so during the day or late afternoon.

This section is considered to be a foreshadowing and transition, so I tried to keep the pace as fast as possible.
Chapter completed!
