In Naruto with an army of figures

Located in Taki Ninja Village.

Because on the eve of the sacrifice, Kakuzu appeared at the altar and massacred many ninjas from Taki Ninja Village, so this year's sacrifice ceremony had to be terminated.

It is not even certain whether future sacrificial rituals can be carried out.

At this time, Minazuki Rin and his party, including Kakuzu, followed the people of Taki Ninja Village back to the village.

Killua and Kimimaro both lived here for a few days.

Rin Minazuki, Nobu and others had never been here before, so they were naturally very curious, especially Misaka Mikoto.

When the team quietly arrived at Taki Ninja Village, Misaka Mikoto kept her eyes wide open and looked left and right, not hiding her curiosity about Ninja Village.

As for Kakuzu, although he surrendered to Rin.

But at this time, he was temporarily imprisoned in the prison of Takinin Village, and was temporarily guarded by the ninjas of Takinin Village and Killua.

Located in the meeting center of Takinin Village Elders, in a low-rise building, there is a reception room.

"Master Rin, I don't know how you are willing to hand over this prisoner Kakuzu to us."

The person who spoke was an elder from Taki Ninja Village. He had gray hair and his cloudy eyes had not faded due to old age, but were sharp.

At this time, the old man leaned forward slightly and asked Minazuki Rin who was sitting opposite the sofa very oppressively.

This is the Yamato elder of Taki Ninja Village. He has not participated in the fierce battle at the altar. At the same time, he is not particularly clear about the strength of Rin and the others.

Even though the Great Elder and others reminded him, he didn't take it too seriously.

On the contrary, he felt very ridiculous that he was appointed to negotiate with such a junior in front of him, so his words were very disrespectful.

After hearing his words, Minazuki Rin, who stood in front of him like a noble, with her upper body upright and sitting on the sofa, frowned slightly, feeling a little tired in her heart.

Then, a wry smile appeared on his young face, and he lamented that he was superfluous.

It was his decision that a group of people came to Taki Ninja Village.

He originally thought that since he had already had very "friendly" contact and reached cooperation with the Country of Waves, it would not be difficult to reach cooperation with a little-known Xiao Ninja Village.

After all, Minazuki Rin does not want to be enemies with the entire ninja world in the future. Dividing one group, cooperating with another group, and suppressing another group is his ideal state.

However, it was different from the smooth negotiation with Emiko Makukawa.

The eight elders who hold the right to speak in Taki Ninja Village are the elder Yamato who is responsible for discussing with Minazuki Rin at this time.

He is also the guy who has been causing Rin trouble in the past two days.

Noticing Minazuki Rin's frown, the old elder with a hooked nose and falcon-like eyes in front of him seemed not to notice, and continued.

"If Rin-sama wants to cooperate with our Taki Ninja Village, handing over the criminal Kakuzu to us is the prerequisite."

"The blood of the ninjas in Taki Ninja Village cannot be shed in vain."

"If this premise cannot be established, please forgive me for speaking frankly. Even if the Taki Ninja Village fights to the last person, we will not be able to agree to your request."

After saying that, the rather tough elder Yamato stood up directly and walked away.

Minazuki Rin was left sitting alone in the room, with the tea on the table still steaming.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly, because Nobu and Artoria were guarding the door and did not accompany them, so he was alone.

"This is really asking for trouble."

Minazuki Rin rubbed her face vigorously and said helplessly.

He wanted to try it out and let himself use the common methods of negotiation in the ninja world, so that he could learn to apply the rules of negotiation between ninja villages.

But I've already seen the results. I'm just trying to make myself feel angry.

Cooperation with Taki Ninja Village is not complicated, because the land boundary between Wave Country and Taki Ninja Village is not too far away. He hopes to try to pay compensation to let Taki Ninja Village send ninjas to guard the villages where the church is gradually developing. .

After all, relying solely on the strength of the devout believers in the village is not enough to deal with unexpected dangers.

Moreover, what the Country of Waves currently lacks is not money, but what it lacks is ninjas.

If cooperation is reached with Taki Ninja Village, Taki Ninja Village can even be allowed to participate in the integration of forces in the Country of Waves. In this way, through his hands, other big countries may not be able to find any faults.

Minazuki Rin thought it was very good

The result is what it is now

The attitude of the other party doesn't matter, the key is to corner this criminal.

If the other party wants Fugu Oni ​​or Kisame, the two people who attacked him, he will give it to him, but Kakuzu is also a tragic character.

For some reason, Minazuki Rin didn't want to hand him over.

"crunch"

The door to the reception room was slowly pushed open, and Minazuki Rin walked out with a calm smile on her face.

Even if he is embarrassed in front of outsiders, even if things go very poorly, he cannot let the people around him worry about him, so he must smile

"cold"

Arturia, who was guarding the outside, hesitated to speak. She looked at Rin with a pair of beautiful eyes, with a rather worried look in her eyes.

Somewhat ashamedly avoiding Artoria's pure gaze, Minazuki Rin turned her head and smiled softly, as if she didn't care at all.

"It's okay, Artoria, it's just another failed negotiation."

"However, I also learned a lot from it, and maybe I can succeed next time."

"And Norbu is there to guarantee me."

"In the worst case, let Nobu handle this matter when the time comes."

When saying this, Minazuki Rin blinked slightly and showed an indifferent smile to Artoria.

Norbu, who was standing beside him, did not make a sound, but had an expressionless face.

In fact, if the negotiation can be successful, Minazuki Rin himself doesn't quite believe what he said. The other party must have Kakuzu, a criminal, and he is unwilling to hand over Kakuzu. This is the difficulty of the negotiation.

What to say.

With the strength of Rin's current team, he could completely destroy the entire Taki Ninja Village by keeping the news secret. However, doing so would not make any sense, and would only bring harm.

Moreover, Misaka Mikoto and Artoria in the team are both very kind-hearted people.

If they were allowed to kill people without any reason, Minazuki Rin would probably do it after losing her mind.

Of course, he could also ignore Taki Ninja Village and leave directly.

There is no relationship between the two, and the other party cannot affect him.

But if he does this, I am afraid that his trip will really be in vain and will not be able to play any role. The only thing that can really bring benefits to the development of the country of Waves and even the church is to achieve cooperation with Taki Ninja Village.

This is not something that can be accomplished simply by means of violence.

And the means to achieve this are exactly what Rin hopes she can learn.

After hearing Rin's words, Artoria on the side gently narrowed her eyes, took a step back, and said very gently.

"I understand."

Minazuki Rin nodded, then showed an expression of nothing at all, and smiled very relaxedly.

"Since today's negotiation has failed again, why don't we take a break and walk around the village, just treat it as a rest?"

"They are not in a hurry anyway. They just happened to call Killua, Kimimaro, and Misaka. What do you think?"

Artoria and Nobu both nodded slightly.

Then, the two went to inform several children, and on the way there, they started a conversation.
