Naruto's strongest golden escape

Chapter 157 The Temptation of Crystals

The next day, Long Yi and the others embarked on a journey.

He set off with Zero, Nagato, Kadotsu, and a small team, and the air force agreed to arrive later, because the speed of the ground force could not be faster than the air force.

Sand Ninja Village is located in the desert. Although the straight-line distance is not far, it will actually walk very slowly because of the terrain.

When Ryuichi and the others went to Kawa no Kuni, it would take more than half a day, but the journey to Sand Ninja Village would take about a day.

Moreover, it is impossible for Long Yi to advance at full speed with a troop, so it will take longer. If he advances at full speed, it is estimated that he will arrive at noon tomorrow.

Kakuzu was at the front of the team and didn't seem to have any complaints. That was because Ryuichi told him that there was big business in Sand Ninja Village.

He knows that when he hears about business, he can bear it even if it is Ye Cang, who used to have a bad relationship with him, it doesn't matter, business is not chilling.

After crossing the waterway of Urenin Village, passing through the border of Kawa no Ninja, and crossing the seemingly endless desert, they successfully arrived at the outskirts of Sand Ninja Village at noon the next day.

The terrain of Sand Ninja Village is surrounded by towering sandstone on all sides, and the living place in the center is slightly lower.Such terrain can ensure that they will not be troubled by wind and sand in such a harsh environment as the desert.

Without these natural shelters, within a decade or so, Sand Ninja Village would be buried by the sky full of yellow sand.

There are already people waiting for them in Sand Ninja Village.

Maji and Ebi hid under the rock wall outside Sand Ninja Village and waited for everyone.

"Welcome, everyone in Yuren Village, you have worked hard all the way, come to the village to rest."

Long Yi looked at Hai Laozang, at this time Hai Laozang was still young, at least not as trembling as in the original plot and unable to lift his eyelids.

Now he looks like he is only five or sixty years old, and his energy is still there.

Long Yi did not hesitate, and nodded to indicate that the troops behind entered the village under the guidance of Hai Laozang.

On the nearby stone wall, the sentries of Sand Ninja Village watched them vigilantly.

It’s not me you should be wary of, but the one in heaven.

Thinking about it, Long Yi couldn't help secretly laughing.Wait for a while to watch the show.

"It's not too late, we don't need to rest, let's go directly to the Kazekage Building, we have important matters to discuss with Kazekage and Sand Ninja Village."

Long Yi talked with Ma Ji and Hai Laozang, Hai Laozang didn't speak, and led everyone to Fengying's conference hall.

The meeting building of Sand Ninja Village is like a beehive, and the whole building seems to be made of sand and stone.Long Yi looked at the entire village's buildings, almost every building was built with local materials, using the desert's own raw materials, which also showed the barrenness of Sand Ninja Village.

After all, daimyo’s appropriation for Sand Ninja Village is quite small, and the entire Sand Ninja Village is more like a microcosm of the Kingdom of Wind—it is located in the desert and lacks resources.

With the fall of the two generations of shadows successively, the refining of placer gold has also reached a deadlock. It can be said that Sand Ninja Village has now lost an important source of income.

Although it is still one of the five major countries from the outside world, the appearance of poverty and weakness has gradually emerged.

Is it more poor here than Wuyin Village after the civil strife?Long Yi doesn't know, maybe it's the same, but the terrain of the two countries is similar, both are easy to defend and difficult to attack, which can be considered a blessing in misfortune.

As he thought about it, he had already entered the Fengying Building. Under the leadership of Ma Ji, they came to the conference room.

The conference room was already full of people, Ye Cang, Grandma Chiyo and other high-level officials gathered here.

Their average ages seem to be very old, only Ye Cang and Ma Ji are representatives of the new generation, and the youngest of the others must be over 40 years old.

With the backward economy and rigid top management, it seems that Sand Ninja Village is already seriously ill, Long Yi sighed inwardly.

Everyone in Yecang stood up, and she seemed very enthusiastic. After all, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the credit of Yuren Village that she can come back here again.

It was obvious that she was on Long Yi's side, while the other senior executives had different expressions, especially Grandma Chiyo, who just stood up politely, without even saying hello, looked at them and then sat down .

Long Yi didn't intend to argue with them to the end, before everyone sat down and finished speaking politely, he directly revealed his purpose.

"Everyone, do you want to get rich?"

Not only the people in Sand Ninja Village, but even the horns turned their heads to stare at Long Yi at this time.

I cast the hook and actually caught one of my own...

"Hmph~ The little hairy kid doesn't know any rules."

Grandma Qiandai sneered, apparently scoffing at Long Yi's proposal.

"Well, Chiyo, just listen to their proposal, after all, they came all the way from Urenin Village."

One of Ebino and Chiyo sang the red face and the other sang the bad face, and the partnering was actually quite smooth.

Hmph, these old fellows are clearly moved, but due to his own face, Long Yi continued to speak,

"I know that Your Excellency Ye Cang is now leading Sand Ninja Village to move forward, but development still needs money after all."

"What the hell are you going to say?"

After only a few words, Chiyo was dissatisfied again, Long Yi was not annoyed, looked at Chiyo,

"I want to say, if I could tell you where the Grayl Stone is, would you cooperate with us?"

"The Stone of Greer? Did he just say the Stone of Greer?"

"How could he know, if he really knew..."

"Impossible, we haven't found it after more than ten years of searching, he must be cheating!"

Hmph - Long Yi sneered, you guys are the only ones looking for things, if you know how to find them, Zao Xie finds them, will there be a third Ninja World War?

"Everyone, my information is accurate. I can assure you that if what I say is not true, you can just blame me, um——I will give you half of Yuren Village!"

"absurd!"

"Wait a minute, he is so confident, is what he said really true?"

...

The meeting place turned into a vegetable market in an instant, and these old guys stopped pretending and started to discuss enthusiastically. After all, it was the legendary Stone of Greer, and the people in Sand Ninja Village must know the importance of ore resources.

"Boy, you have to figure it out."

Chiyo looked at him coldly.

"Even if you know the exact location, the Stone of Greer is still in the Land of Wind, and it is our property!"

"Oh? Mother-in-law Chiyo said that, is she planning to agree to my proposal?"

"I also want to ask you, what is your intention to inquire about the treasures of our Kingdom of the Wind, as a person from another village!"

The atmosphere in the venue became tense again. At this moment, a scout ninja ran in in a panic.

"What are you panicking about?!"

Chiyo was furious, and this unlucky ninja was scolded loudly by her.

He raised his head, his face was pale, as if something terrible had happened:

"Air strike! It's an air strike!"
