Negative Master of Konoha

Chapter 59 The Eve of the Storm ([-])

In the sand ninja conference room, a sand ninja chuunin carefully reported today's situation to the consultants present.

"My lords, today more than 300 villagers have come to see Sandai Kazekage."

"More than 300. I see, you go down."

Frowning tightly, Luo Sha glanced at the consultants present calmly, and signaled his subordinates to leave.

"Yes, Master Luo Sha." Sand Ninja Chuo Shinobu, who had been under pressure under the gaze of the consultants, secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly exited the meeting room.

Luo Sha sat up straight, looked a little irritably at the consultants who were still discussing the whereabouts of the third generation, changed his tone from the usual calm, and urged anxiously: "Everyone, you have also heard, people who care about the situation of the third generation There are already more and more, if this continues, sooner or later people will be questioned, it is time to make a decision, whether to continue to search or make this news public.”

A consultant with a scar on his left cheek saw that the others were silent, so he stood up, without beating around the bush, and directly said what everyone knew but was hard to say: "Luo Sha, we have already looked for It has been so long, and no trace of the third-generation master has been found until now, which means that the third-generation master is likely to have died, so my mission is to make this news known to the public as soon as possible."

The frank words of the scar-faced consultant made the other Sand Ninja consultants whisper to each other.

"That's right, we can't do such futile things anymore. Let's give up the unrealistic fluke and face the reality." Since the disappearance of the third Kazekage, Chiyo, who has been a little silent, also agreed with the consultant's idea .

"Chiyo, if this is the case, will it cause turmoil in Sand Ninja Village?" Although he knew that this was the current way to deal with it, Luo Sha was still a little worried about the reaction of the people after they knew the truth.

Chiyo sighed, and said helplessly: "This is also a matter of last resort. There will definitely be turmoil, but we can still suppress it. The top priority is to select the fourth generation of Kazekage as soon as possible, so as to stabilize Sand Shinobi. situation."

"If you recommend the fourth Kazekage, do you have any suggestions?"

After hearing Luo Sha's words, everyone present was slightly startled, and immediately realized what Luo Sha said.

Among the current sand ninja consultants, only Rasa and Chiyo have the qualifications and prestige to serve as the next Kazekage. Rasa seems to be asking everyone, but in fact he wants to understand Chiyo's thoughts, after all, it involves Kazekage If there is competition for the position, it will not only disperse the power in the village, but it will also take a long time. Judging from the current situation of Sand Ninja Village, it may not be able to support that time.

The consultants looked at each other in unison, fell silent, and cast their eyes on the two of them.

"Since things have come to this point, Luo Sha, you will be the fourth Kazekage, and I will support you." Chiyo also hesitated, but in order to stabilize the village as soon as possible, she finally chose to give in. Gave up Kazekage's position to Luo Sha, who was on par with him.

Luo Sha didn't expect Chiyo to be so decisive. She took a deep look at her, didn't reject her kindness, nodded and said, "Okay, I'm willing to take on the responsibility of the shadow of a village."

Now that the candidate for the fourth Kazekage has been determined, the senior officials of Sand Ninja Village immediately made the next preparations, and then called the villagers together to announce to them the news of the disappearance of the third Kazekage.

The people who heard the news and the lower-level ninjas were in an uproar, unable to accept this fact, and the scene became a little chaotic for a while. Fortunately, the higher-ups had made sufficient preparations in advance, so they did not lose their control.

After the public's mood stabilized slightly, the advisors announced that Luo Sha would be the fourth Kazekage, and the people accepted Luo Sha's leadership, but many people still felt somewhat uneasy.

A month later, Sand Ninja passed through the power transfer period smoothly, and Luo Sha held another high-level meeting to discuss the next action.

"The village has temporarily stabilized, but due to the disappearance of the third generation of adults, the daimyo has questioned the strength of our sand ninja, and the military expenditure may be cut again next year." Speak up.

"What?! Is the daimyo confused? Originally, our military expenditure is less than that of other ninja villages. If it is further reduced, does daimyo not want to use us to compete with other ninja villages?" A sand ninja consultant was a little annoyed Daimyo couldn't help complaining loudly.

A flash of light flashed in Luo Sha's eyes, he slapped the table fiercely, and said aggressively: "So we need to prove to him that even if we lose the three generations of Kazekage, we still have enough strength. After the preparation of the military supplies is complete, we will start a war with the Fire Nation."

"The Land of Fire? Konoha's strength is the strongest among the Five Great Ninja Villages," Chiyo was startled, and immediately asked, "Why didn't you choose the Land of Earth, which is relatively weak?"

"Because Konoha is the strongest, we have to demonstrate our strength by defeating it. Moreover, the Land of Fire is richer than the Land of Earth, and defeating them can gain more benefits."

After a pause, Luo Sha slowly expressed his opinion and plan to implement: "However, if we fight alone, our strength is indeed not as good as Konoha, but we are not the only ones who envy the country of fire, the other three The country is also coveting the land of the Fire Nation, as long as we can form an alliance with one of them and jointly attack the Fire Nation, Konoha will be in a state of being attacked, and the victory will definitely belong to us."

A consultant was not in favor of choosing the Fire Nation as the target of the attack, and questioned Luo Sha's plan: "Will they choose to be an enemy of Konoha?"

"Of course, as long as you come up with conditions that are enough to impress them." Of course Luo Sha knew that persuading them to join the war would not be an easy task, but he also had great confidence in this, "We need victory, and they need benefits. enough."

Chiyo, who is good at domestic affairs but a bit dull about diplomacy, nodded with a sense of realization, looked at Luo Sha's firm expression, and said, "Since you have thought it through, Kazekage, then I choose to support it."

"Okay, then it's decided like this." With Chiyo's support, Luo Sha passed the resolution smoothly.

Next, Sand Ninja invested all the spare funds in the preparation of armaments and materials, and at the same time secretly sent several teams of envoys to the three major ninja villages, secretly discussing the matter of forming an alliance to attack the Fire Nation.
