Naruto: I traveled through time with the Samsara Eye.

A reduction of three points means that the caravan can earn more money, and the Third Kazekage can reduce the tax rate of the Sand Village by three points.

But this is not the case in other places because he cannot make decisions for the daimyo.

Therefore, taxes elsewhere remain unchanged.

Since there is no change, why not go straight to the Sand Village?

No one has trouble with money.

So after an emergency meeting was held within the caravan, the caravan's plan was directly abandoned and the first target became the Sand Village.

Inside the carriage, Ye Cang hesitated to speak, with a confused look on his face:

"I didn't expect that Lord Fengying thought so highly of you that he was willing to reduce the tax for the caravan by three points."

In fact, she didn't want to go to the Sand Village because she didn't know how to face the familiar people in the village.

But since it was the Third Kazekage who invited him, Jingyi couldn't refuse.

How about staying in the hotel for a few days?

"Why think about these things? Although we have different positions and camps, those who are willing to be close to you will still be your friends. Don't forget that Konoha and the Sand Village are allies. At least on the surface, the two sides are not enemies. As for those who think you are a traitor, why bother about their opinions?"

Knowing that Ye Cang was conflicted, Jingyi could only speak to comfort her, hoping that she would stop being so stubborn.

The change of camp is something that cannot be changed. In that case, why bother about some people's opinions?

When you arrive at the Sand Village, if you want to rest, rest. If you want to meet friends, meet them. If the other party doesn't approve of you, just applaud and let it go.

I say I don't want to, but I'm unwilling to face it.

However, after the caravan entered the Sand Village, Ye Cang ran away immediately.

She wanted to meet her former teammates and friends, as for the result...

Ye Cang couldn't care less.

Coincidentally, Ye Cang's former teammates were all in the village, and no one died in the war. When Ye Cang appeared in front of them, they were all stunned.

Some looked surprised, while others looked confused and couldn't understand why Ye Cang appeared in the village.

Didn't she already defect to Konoha?

Jingyi arrived as promised, and the Third Kazekage personally came out to receive him.

"Who is this........."

Standing next to the Third Kazekage was a little boy who was about the same age as the little yellow-haired boy and had a head full of red hair.

The Third Kazekage was a serious man, and rarely did you see any emotion on his face.

Seeing Jingyi asking, the Third Kazekage took the initiative to introduce: "This is Scorpion, the grandson of Chiyo, his parents are in the war......"

The Third Kazekage paused here and did not continue.

Scorpion, who had just been looking at Jingyi curiously, lowered his head when he heard this.

It seems that the relationship between the Third Kazekage and Sasori is pretty good.

That's right. If the relationship was not right, it would be almost impossible for Scorpion to poison the Third Kazekage to death.

It was precisely because of this trust that the Third Kazekage fell into the trap without knowing it.

After taking a deep look at the other person, Jingyi joked, "I heard that he has a strong talent in making puppets?"

The expressionless Third Kazekage looked at Scorpion beside him, with a hint of relief in his eyes.

This shows that he is optimistic about Scorpio's future.

"Very good, about the same age as my disciple Namikaze Minato. I'll introduce him to you when I have the chance."

"disciple?"

Scorpion, who had been lowering his head, raised his head curiously. As for Jingyi, there was no need for the Third Kazekage to introduce him. Scorpion was very clear about all his intelligence information and had studied him in depth.

In addition, the Third Kazekage and Grandma Chiyo often talked about how powerful and terrifying Jingyi was, and unknowingly, a deep impression was left on Scorpion.

Adhering to the principle that if the teacher is strong, the disciple will not be bad either, Scorpion thought to himself: Is that person named Minato Namikaze very talented?

The Third Kazekage understood that Scorpion should sit next to him, and after Scorpion sat down obediently, he asked:

"Is it about the exchange of puppets? If so, Scorpion should be very happy."

Ever since his parents passed away, and Chiyo has been busy and hasn't had much time to spend with his grandson, Scorpion, who suffered a heavy blow, seems a little introverted.

Chiyo is worried that her grandson might have personality problems, while the Third Kazekage is afraid that the village's genius will go astray. Both of them hope that Scorpion can interact more with people of his age, but unfortunately few of his peers in the village are worthy of Scorpion's liking.

"Communication among puppets?"

Jingyi paused for a moment as she picked up the teacup, then shook her head:

"Then I'm afraid Master Fengying will be disappointed. My disciple does not know puppetry."

The Third Kazekage: “???”

Scorpio was also surprised.

The teacher's puppet is so powerful, but the disciple doesn't know how to use puppets?

"His physical skills are very strong." Jingyi smiled and praised his disciple.

Puppetry?

Does little yellow-haired boy need this thing?

No need. He just needs to lay a solid foundation and learn the Flying Thunder God Technique. Then he can fly into the sky. When he has flown almost enough, he can learn the immortal technique and fly again.

Therefore, there is no need to consider the puppetry technique at all.

Soon, some of the Sand Village's specialties were placed on the table.

In order to entertain Jingyi well, the Third Kazekage put in a lot of effort.

The two of them ate and talked about the war, and Scorpion listened quietly, his big brown eyes fixed on Jingyi.

"The offensive of the Iwagakure is getting stronger and stronger. It's obvious that Ohnoki really wants to win this war."

Speaking of Ōnoki, the Third Kazekage felt complicated, because he felt that Ōnoki at this time was very similar to himself in previous years.

Launch a war with a desperate determination and be confident that you can win.

As a result, reality shattered the dream and pushed the village into the quagmire of war.

Although the Iwagakure is stronger than the Sand Village, the Kumogakure is not an easy target to be bullied either. If things go wrong, Ōnoki might suffer a terrible loss.

Picking up a piece of beef and putting it into his mouth, Jingyi took over the conversation: "You have to be strong. The Rock Village at this moment is just like the Sand Village before. It can't be held back. Sorry, senior, I don't have any other meaning, it's just a metaphor."

"I know." The Third Kazekage nodded, indicating that he would not think too much about it.

Because Jingyi was telling the truth.

The Sand Village launched a war, but finally found that it could not hold on.

The Sand Village can't be held back, and the same goes for the Iwagakure.

Villages with poor land, scarce resources and bad economy all have this common problem, not to mention that Iwagakure is an extremely high-volume village with most of its assets used to train ninjas.

The result of doing this is that the military strength has increased, but the economy and other aspects are very poor.

The battle cannot be delayed any longer, and with the Sand Village as a precedent, Ohnoki dare not delay. From the frequent and fierce offensives in the battlefield of the Land of Lightning, it can be seen that Ohnoki hopes to defeat the Cloud Village with a strong attitude, and does not intend to engage in a long-term tug-of-war with the Cloud Village.

The Cloud Village dares to fight and can fight, but the Iwagakure Village cannot.

Even if the Cloud Village still provided material support to Konoha and the Sand Village, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. The result of the logistics competition and tug-of-war was that the Iwagakure became the second Sand Village.

The more we fight, the poorer we become; the longer it drags on, the less we can bear it.

"But the war in the Land of Water is more interesting. Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, should be having a headache right now."
