Naruto: Everything can be copied

Nara Iso had already prepared gifts for the visit.

Minato's visit lasted for two full days.

Kakugi had to admire the Nara family, this family was really talented.

This Nara Iso is not well-known, but he is really impeccable in terms of diplomatic rhetoric, hospitality, etiquette, etiquette, and various arrangements.

After following Minato for two days, Kakugi felt like his face was about to freeze with laughter.

But the harvest is really not small. Various obscure words but finally reaching an agreement gave Kazuoki a deeper understanding of "the world."

In this way, on the third day after arriving in Kyoto, Minato went to meet the Daimyo of the Land of Fire according to the agreed time.

Naturally, it was impossible for all the accompanying Anbu and Shadow Guards to come to see the Daimyo. Only Kakugi, as a personal bodyguard, had the "honor" of accompanying him to see the Daimyo.

Kakugi stood behind Minato honestly, watching his eyes, nose, and heart without saying a word, quietly listening to the polite exchanges and compliments between Minato and the Daimyo.

The Daimyo of the Fire Country has a long face and wears a tall black hat. There is a fan-like ornament on the back of the hat, with the Fire Country's family crest painted on it.

White powder was applied on his face, his eyebrows were shaved off and drawn on, and he held a folding fan in his hand to cover the teeth that might be exposed in his smile from time to time.

Kakugi keenly discovered that the daimyo's exposed teeth were also painted black.

How can I put it, the appearance of the daimyo is quite consistent with Kakugi's impression of ancient Japanese aristocrats.

Judging from the conversation between Minato and the Daimyo, Kakugi also has a deeper knowledge and understanding of Konoha's status in the Land of Fire.

The status relationship between Konoha and the daimyo is like the relationship between the shogunate and the emperor.

Konoha controls the absolute armed power, and the daimyo controls the title of Daiyi.

The difference is that the Daimyos of the Fire Country still have absolute economic say and an ordinary army that is enough to deal with civilians.

A purely military organization like Konoha, which only knows how to use force in exchange for rewards, is naturally inferior to professionals in terms of economic issues. Therefore, Konoha has formed such a symbiotic relationship with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

Therefore, the daimyo actually still has some influence on the Ninja Village, but the daimyo rarely takes advantage of this.

Despite his "degenerate" appearance and laziness on his face, you can tell from his words that he is definitely a wise man.

With careful probing and just the right sense of space, you can get what you want while talking, and still have enough room to spare.

Also, if he were a real waste in a high position, the delicate balanced symbiotic relationship between Konoha and the Daimyo would no longer exist.

The breakdown of this relationship is actually not a good thing for both parties.

For example, in the original work, Sunagakure Village, which was oppressed to the limit by the daimyo of the Land of Wind, finally chose to go to war against Konoha, using military adventures to both demonstrate its strength and draw the daimyo into trouble.

What Sunagakure did was actually quite rational and gentle, at least he didn't directly start a war with the Daimyo of the Land of Wind.

Like the Kingdom of Rain, the daimyo and nobles of the Kingdom of Rain were directly killed by Sanshouyu Hanzo, and all the rule of the country was returned to the Hidden Rain Village. Since then, the Kingdom of Rain has always looked like a half-dead ghost.

The strength of Yuyin Village is so strong that at its peak, it dared to challenge the entire ninja world. Although the decline of the Kingdom of Rain was largely due to war, the Kingdom of Rain did not participate in the Third World War and has not recovered from World War II. There is also the issue of ninjas being in power.

A ninja who has only received education in "killing people" since he was a child and has been "killing people" ever since. If he can manage a ninja village, he is considered a "think tank". Managing a country is really beyond the scope of his abilities.

Kadomu wandered quietly until a voice pulled him back.

"Minato Yo, there seems to be a ninja named Umino Kakugi in Konoha, right? I wonder if he's here this time?"

The daimyo covered half of his face with his fan and asked with a smile.

"???" Kazuoki was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything, but waited to see Minato's reaction.

"Here you come, right behind me. Kakugi-san, come and see your lord." Minato was stunned for a moment, then responded quickly and said.

Hearing Minato's words, Kazuoki walked out from behind Minato and was about to bow.

"Hey, don't worry!" The daimyo fanned a few times with his fan and said with great interest, "Raise your head and let me take a good look!"

Kazuoki didn't know what was going on. He raised his head and looked directly at the strange decoration on the back of the daimyo's head. The daimyo looked at Kazuoki with a smile, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became.

"Okay, okay, okay!" The name said "good" three times in a row, and kept flapping the folding fan in the palm of his hand: "He is indeed a talented person, and he has a good reputation."

"My lord, you have thanked me." Kazuoki bowed and responded calmly.

Kakugi felt that the daimyo must have something to say behind his pretentiousness.

Sure enough, the daimyo looked at Kakugi a few more times with admiration, and suddenly leaned back on his chair, looking shocked.

"Oh, I think there are guardian ninja around me, but there have never been any experts...just the Fire Temple, and some of them are hired from some small organizations..."

Hearing this, Minato frowned.

In the Land of Fire, the only "official" ninja organizations are Konoha Village and Fire Temple, and other small organizations can be collectively called Lang Ninja.

It's just that as long as Lang Ninja doesn't touch Konoha's troubles, or unless there is a conflict of tasks, Konoha generally doesn't bother to care so much.

Even if it is illegal and unruly, Konoha will not take the initiative to take care of it if no one issues a mission. After all, Konoha is just a military organization, and the security of the entire country is the daimyo's business.

So Minato actually doesn't have much objection to daimyo hiring naga nin. Not only daimyo, but many nobles also like to hire some naga nin for a long time to support the scene. After all, these naga nin are "favorable".

It's just that although these ninjas are cheap, their strength is also very low, and they generally have low moral integrity. Therefore, if they really need help from ninjas, the nobles will still bear the pain and pay high prices to hire professionals like Konoha.

Therefore, Konoha actually doesn't care about the small share of tasks taken away by Lang Nin, it is just a matter of three fruits and two dates.

Furthermore, if Konoha had to control even the nobles' hired ninjas, it would inevitably arouse the fear of the noble daimyo.

However, the daimyo suddenly brought up the matter of protecting Shinobi. What was he going to do?

The original intention of the daimyo setting up the guardian ninja was to cultivate a ninja force independent of Konoha, but Konoha was wise enough to never participate.

Konoha is confident enough that it will not be replaced by the so-called guardian ninja. If the daimyo wants to play, let him play by himself.

Are you betraying yourself by saying this now? Looking for a ninja from Konoha? Have you figured it out and decided to get closer to Konoha?
