"Mifune, come and sit down. We old guys all have some understanding of the samurai path. After all, before the establishment of the ninja village, samurai were still very active."

However, ever since Hashirama established the first ninja village, ninjas have become the mainstream of the ninja world.

The warriors gradually declined.

But looking at the situation, it seems that a new remarkable figure is about to emerge among the warriors.

Hashirama pulled Mifune to sit on the sofa, and Tofu sat opposite Mifune.

This made Mifune, who was already a little reserved, even more nervous.

"Mifune, what is your purpose for coming to Konoha Village this time? I heard that the Iron Country had been closed before, is it open now?"

Mifune took a deep breath and nodded, "That's right, Lord Hashirama. When Lord Tobirama and Lord Tofu came to the Land of Iron 20 years ago, the Land of Iron at that time was full of people abandoning their wives and children in pursuit of the so-called samurai way."

"A large amount of farmland has been abandoned, and many elderly people have no one to support them. The commander has been trying to solve the problem for the past twenty years, but in the end, there was no relief. In addition, Hanzo attacked, and many people in the Iron Kingdom died. This is why a large number of fake warriors who are afraid of death showed their true colors."

"The commander-in-chief demoted them to civilians and made them do farming and other labor. In the future, the Iron Kingdom should slowly recover."

Hashirama almost frowned as he listened to this story. A country that didn't even have farmers who worked the land, what did they eat all these years? The entire country was only maintained by the remaining honest people?

This is really scary.

"Then the commander is planning to cooperate with Konoha Village?"

Mifune smiled after hearing this and said, "The commander did mean that, but he said that I should see the attitude of Konoha Village. After all, the relationship between ninjas and samurai is already tense."

Hashirama nodded. There were indeed some conflicts between ninjas and samurai, but it was the samurai themselves who were looking for trouble.

From the beginning to the end, ninjas never wanted to sever the inheritance of samurai, or anything like that. It's just that their own training modes and pursuits are different, which leads to fewer and fewer people being interested in samurai.

That’s why it gradually declined.

Becoming a ninja is quick and effective. As long as you have chakra, you can become a ninja. There is no need to hone your character or pursue the so-called bushido.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that being a ninja was definitely easier, so a large number of people chose to become ninjas. Over time, the samurai became increasingly unpopular.

But the warriors were naturally proud and unwilling to admit this obvious fact.

Just choose to escape and cut off contact with the ninja.

But now it seems that something big has gone wrong.

"What we two good guys say doesn't count. You still have to look at Qufeng's opinion. After all, he is the Hokage."

Sanchuan nodded after hearing this and said, "I understand. Lord Qufeng is very interested in cooperation, but I don't have the real power after all, so I can't make the decision on my own."

Qufeng could feel that Mifune wanted to change the current situation in the Iron Kingdom, so Mifune was very active in the various cooperation that Shikano mentioned.

But due to the lack of power, nothing can be finalized. I can only wait until I return to the Iron Kingdom and discuss with the commander before making a choice.

There is no rush to take the wind. Although the output of the mine has decreased, it can still produce for about seven or eight years.

By then, maybe new mineral veins will be found, as the Iron Country is not the only country producing ore.

At worst, we can import it.

Just as they were chatting, there was a sound suddenly coming from outside the house, then the door was pushed open and Tsunade walked in humming a little tune.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Qufeng? Why are you here today?"

Qufeng smiled and greeted him, then said, "There are foreign guests coming to visit Lord Tobirama, and I am here to accompany them."

After hearing this, Tsunade noticed the strangely dressed man sitting in the middle of the sofa. He seemed to be a samurai?

She quickly covered her mouth: "Did I disturb you?"

Mifune waved his hands after hearing this and said, "No, no, this should be Princess Tsunade. I have heard of her great reputation for a long time."

Tsunami pointed at himself, "Me? I've heard of your good name for a long time? What good name can I have? That foreigners know about it?"

Hashirama frowned slightly and said, "Tsunade, please don't be rude. Go back to your room."

Seeing that her grandfather was pretending to be angry, Tsunade did not refute him. She immediately put on a well-behaved look and returned to her room.

"My granddaughter is naughty. Please forgive me, little friend Mifune. She is usually quite gentle and polite."

When Qufeng heard this, he almost spit out something. The words "gentle and elegant" probably have nothing to do with Tsunade now.

The master probably wanted to leave a good impression on Mifune, so as to avoid him getting a bad reputation.

"Don't worry, Lord Hashirama. Princess Tsunade is also a young girl. She is just expressing her freedom. I don't think there is anything wrong with it. Please don't punish him."

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Mifune."

There are many etiquettes to observe when talking to strangers. Qufeng has been talking about "Your Excellency" almost all the time these days. After all, he is a foreign envoy after all.

Can't leave a bad impression.

They talked about the friendly exchanges between the two countries. The main purpose was to let Mifune know more about the village of Konoha so that he would have something to say when he returned to report to the commander.

After all, in order to persuade the commander to cooperate with Konoha Village, one must also provide areas worthy of cooperation.

Otherwise, just talking about the good things about Konoha Village will have no effect at all.

"Then I will take my leave now. I will come to visit you two when I have time."

Hashirama and Tobirama also stood up to see Mifune off.

When Qufeng reached the door, he whispered something to Sanchuan, and then Sanchuan walked into the yard and waited.

Qu Feng turned around and took out a green fruit from the ring, which was emitting a bright light.

"Master, there's no need to tell me what this is."

Hashirama nodded, "We all know about the Fruit of Life. Who is it for?"

Qufeng pointed to the courtyard and said, "Senior Ashina, he is getting old. We can't let Kushina be without any relatives in Konoha Village."

After hearing this, Hashirama said angrily: "You kid! What do you mean you don't have any relatives? Aren't we all her relatives?"

Qu Feng waved his hand and said, "That's different. After all, we are not related by blood. They are grandfather and grandson. There is still a layer between us. Besides, you old brothers don't have to count the days on your fingers."

"Will it not affect you? Can such a precious thing be given away so easily?"
