People are in Hokage, one person at a time

"Lord Cao Mang."

"Wuwei, how are those Konoha ninjas doing?"

It was night, in the office of the leader of the Country of Grass, the famous Kusanagi Jōnin Wuwei was standing respectfully in front of the leader of Mang.

"Back to the leader, those Konoha ninjas have already stayed at the hot spring izakaya you arranged, and they have met with the Iwa ninja."

"Well done, but you have to remember one thing, no one can get into trouble from the Grass Ninja Village, you know?"

"Yes!"

"Then go down."

Cao Mang rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. At this moment, he no longer had the same energy as during the day.

"What else?"

After waiting for a long time, Cao Mang's movements stopped, and Cao Mang slowly opened his eyes.

"Your Majesty, the leader...the subordinate...the subordinate has something unclear."

Wuwei half-knelt on the ground and buried his head low.

"I wonder which side the leader is planning to help?"

"Which side?"

Cao Mang squinted his eyes and looked at Wuwei in amusement.

"Did those twelve old guys ask you to ask?"

Wuwei didn't reply, just lowered his head in silence.

"Okay, I know those twelve old guys from Kusano Minoru are determined to give up, so stop kneeling and stand up to answer them."

Cao Mang said boredly, although Wuwei's combat prowess was pretty good among Cao Ninjas, but his temper...

"The Iwa ninja are going to war with Konoha, why do you think we, the grass ninja, have to take sides?"

"Unrest often means opportunities. I think back then..."

"I think Hanzo thought the same way at the beginning."

Cao Mang interrupted Wuwei's radical speech.

"Wuwei, what do you think of the strength of Namikaze Jonin?"

"This... I don't know the specific situation, but judging from the amount of chakra and physical fitness, he is worthy of the name of Jounin of Konoha."

"Minato Namikaze, Konoha's new jounin, a disciple of the three ninja Jiraiya, the disciple of the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the blood successor who can defeat the sand ninja at the age of nineteen, the powerful Shogunari Yekura, his instant body So fast, not much faster than Konoha White Fang before..."

As he spoke, Cao Mang paused and looked quietly at Wuwei in front of him.

"Now, are you still sure?"

"This……"

Wuwei paused, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his dark green pupils.

"If the sneak attack is successful, my fire escape..."

"Oh, according to the intelligence, Namikaze Minato still has a strong sense of perception. In addition, in one battle, he killed sixty sand ninjas including Mamon. This was just a small team in Konoha. .”

Cao Mang said quietly, ignoring Wuwei's increasingly ugly expression.

"There are many new generations in Konoha, such as Sarutobi Hiruzen's youngest son. In addition to Orochimaru, Tsunade-hime seems to have also brought disciples. In addition, Konoha's old ninja clan... this Ghost Light City You won’t forget whose hands it was in before, right?”

"This...but Uchiha seems..."

"It doesn't matter what the Uchiha's situation is now. I only know that according to historical records, in this Uchiha clan, every few generations there will be at least one pervert who exceeds the specifications. The power of the Sharingan."

Cao Mang shook his head, looking very emotional.

"So, Sir, you are more optimistic about Konoha? But since you are optimistic about Konoha, why don't you place your bet in advance so that we can make plans in advance."

Wuwei asked in confusion. After hearing this, Cao Mang burst into laughter.

"Konoha? Who told you that I was optimistic about Konoha?"

"Of course, I think Konoha can win the final victory in the Ninja World War, but frankly speaking, if you can get a bite of meat by following Iwa Ninja Kumo Ninja, then you can't even drink soup by following Konoha. "

As he spoke, Cao Mang threw Sarutobi Hiruzen's so-called secret message in Wuwei's face.

"See for yourself."

"This……"

When I opened the envelope, I couldn't say I was shocked. It was inevitable that Wuwei's pupils were shaking.

Throughout the entire article, except for redundant information of unclear meaning, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not write any information about the alliance.

The meaning of the Sandaime-sama is also easy to understand.

In view of the long-standing friendly cooperative relationship between Konoha and Kusanagi, as an friendly country, Kusanagi should help Konoha defend the northwest line of defense.

In addition, what price does Konoha have to pay, and what can the grass ninja get? Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't mention it at all. With the arrogance of the number one ninja village in the ninja world, it felt like Konoha gave it to him. A chance for Kusanagi to curry favor with Konoha.

Seeing this, Wuwei's hand holding the envelope couldn't help but tremble. Although weak countries have no diplomacy, and under the oppression of the five gangsters, their small countries are no different from the battlefields of big countries' conquests, but this Sarutobi Hiruzen... …

"You are old and confused, your wits are dimmed by your power, Shinobi, let's see since Sarutobi Hiruzen took over Konoha, what else is there to establish diplomatic relations with in Konoha?"

Cao Mang sneered twice.

"Relying on weak compromises to maintain the stability of the situation. Even though they have such a good set of cards in their hands, they have been trapped in endless internal fighting. Today's Konoha is no longer the Konoha it was at the time of the Senju Brothers. Ye, his surname is Sarutobi, what kind of Gohachi family is he Sarutobi, they are just a bunch of stinking monkeys."

"This……"

Listening to Cao Mang's disdainful reply, cold sweat broke out on Wuwei's head.

Although, if you don't take the Sandaime Hokage seriously, is Master Kusanagi really not afraid of Konoha's revenge?

"The same goes for that idiot Mujitsu, who followed Konoha to defeat the Iwa-nin. In addition to killing all the Grass-nin, what else did the Grass-nin get? A pair of second-hand supplies, and Konoha's evaluation of the Grass-nin that has not changed at all. ?”

"This... Lord Cao Mang, please calm down, my father... my father..."

"Okay Wuwei, I don't mean to target anyone. Otherwise, based on Wujie's contribution to Kusanagi, do you think you can still reach this point today, Kusanagi..."

Cao Mang sneered disdainfully.

"Go back and tell those old guys hiding in Ghost Lantern City that if they still don't understand the current situation, I don't mind teaching them who the leader of the Grass Ninja is."

"Yes, Sir Chief."

Wuwei lowered his head and did not dare to face Cao Mang's gaze.

"Then we have to protect those Konoha ninjas, the ninjas of Iwa Ninja Village..."

"You have to remember, Wuwei, our grass ninjas are only maintaining public order in the grass ninja village. Any behavior that violates the rules of the grass ninja village should be stopped in time. As for after leaving the grass ninja village, it is no different from us grass ninjas. It doesn’t matter at all, do you understand?”

"Follow the leader's instructions, long live Kusanagi!"

"Very well, the future of grass ninja depends on you."

Listening to Wuwei's heartfelt slogan, Cao Mang couldn't help but express his admiration.

No restraint, no action, really worthy of being an old fool.

"After this matter is finished, Wuwei and Ghost Lantern City will take over."
