Red Dust

"Do you still want to keep it a secret?"

Daimaru said slowly,

"These are two requirements, you are not worth the price, don't be too greedy!"

Guren, who wanted to say more, was interrupted by Daimaru's wave.

"Think about it! You are too excited now to make major decisions. Let's talk when you calm down!"

Daimaru, who was talking, casually subdued Guren, and then said something desperate:

"All of you who fell into my hands, from body to soul, are all my spoils! For the forbidden art puppet master who is proficient in mysticism, death is not a liberation, but the beginning of eternal pain, think about what you have The chips can negotiate conditions with me, so that we can continue..."

The soul can be restrained and used as fertilizer for the "cradle garden", draining all its value and then throwing it back to the Pure Land, or as a sacrifice to cast a forbidden technique, and the body can be made into an adult puppet.

Not doing this, just because Daimaru doesn't want to, doesn't mean that the prisoners can make conditions at will.

The value of a living person is undoubtedly higher than the consumption of "materials", it depends on how much Red Lotus is willing to pay.

Chapter 0901 Help

Red Lotus, who was played around by the pharmacist, is not known for being smart, but she is still a little quick-witted when it comes to matters that are crucial to her life.

As Daimaru said, Yukimaru was actually implicated by Guren. If you want to fight for better treatment for yourself, you have to make up your mind to pay a little price so that Daimaru can raise your hand.

As a prisoner, you must have the awareness to recognize the reality.

After thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't find anything worthy of Daimaru's mind, so Guren had to turn her thoughts to another field.

The next morning, Guren, who had asked to see him many times, finally met the busy Daimaru.

All the chakras were sealed, completely unable to use the ninja surgery, some cramped waiting for Daimaru to ask.

After stamping the last document, Daimaru sighed, stretched his body, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked slowly:

"Have you figured it out? I have to remind you that there is only one chance. My time is precious and cannot be wasted on you and Yukimaru. If you can't give me the answer I want, you don't need to think about anything..."

Guren, who took a deep breath, said bitterly:

"I exchanged the information of Xueji Boundary-Jing Dun, Orochimaru and Yaoshidou, as well as my own refuge, in exchange for Shayin Village to shelter Youguiwan and myself..."

"Huh? These... For you, it's also a bloodbath!"

Daimaru laughed and said,

"Although I have a way to peel off the bloodline limit on you, it is always a good thing to have my cooperation! If the information about Da She Wan and Yao Shidou was two years earlier... No, even if it was a year earlier, it would be very good. value, now..."

Not to mention those cannon fodders who don't even deserve a name. The so-called intelligence is only valuable to Orochimaru, Yaoshitou, and Sasuke Uchiha. Even Guideng Shuiyue, Shigego, and Daimaru don't care much, and they don't need Guren. Know quasi-inaccurate information.

In Guren's hopeful eyes, Daimaru reluctantly nodded in agreement:

"The last one seems to be illusory, but it is not real at all, but it is actually the most valuable! Life is the miracle of the world, and it has an extremely broad imagination..."

Guren was able to convince Daimaru because Daimaru had a way to make those general promises into substantive constraints.

"From today onwards, your public identity is that of an external trainee instructor of the Air Combat Force. Occasionally go to an open class to instruct the apprentice on how to behave. Secretly, your duty is to go to the designated place when needed. …”

"that's it?"

Guren, who was originally going to give up her dignity and freedom in exchange for Yukimaru's innocence, couldn't help but ask.

"If you want to do more, I can't trust you. It's not that I don't have the means to control it, but it's unnecessary!"

Daimaru, who has already laid out too many dark moves, does not need to pay too much attention to a ninja with decent strength but obvious shortcomings.

The people under Orochimaru can't even trust Xiang Rin, let alone Red Lotus?

"There are no benefits for nothing in this world. In addition to tolerance, somewhere you don't know, you must have paid the necessary price..."

"These prices... I don't even have the qualifications to know!"

Red Lotus, who realized what Daimaru meant, couldn't help but feel sad in her heart. The restraint she could see and touch was not scary, and it was even more difficult to get rid of the control she didn't know where her weakness was being pulled by someone else.

"I even think, even if you explain, you won't understand!"

Daimaru, who shrugged, waved his hand, and asked his subordinates to send Yukimaru, handed over two contracts, and asked them to sign separately.

After trembling, she wrote her name on the scroll that was not a serious contract at first glance, and then pressed the bloody handprint. Guren hugged Yukimaru in her arms and said to Daimaru:

"Is that enough?"

"more or less!"

After putting away the contract scroll, Daimaru was still in a good mood, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions,

"It doesn't look like you're going to betray Orochimaru, why are you so desperately working for Sand Shinobi?"

"Lord Orochimaru's subordinates are many people who have been favored by him, and I am no exception. However, except for most of the fanatical admirers, the few who live long enough are also more cherished..."

"just like you?"

"I am still in awe of Lord Orochimaru, but, having been abandoned twice, I may no longer trust my former benefactor..."

Especially now, after the injury has recovered, Orochimaru, who has devoted himself to researching various secret techniques such as forbidden arts and reincarnation of dirty earth, has less and less demand for cannon fodder, and only talents like Deidara, Yakushitou, and Uchiha Sasuke are able to do so. Will be looked at differently, Red Lotus is still a little bit worse after all.

"It's not a bad thing to work for Sand Ninja. Many wandering ninjas can't find a way to join the five major Ninja villages. It is better to have a big power behind them than to live in no fixed place in the Ninja world!"

"You said so..."

Daimaru tilted his head with a half-smile, and thought for a while while dragging his chin.

This is a phenomenon that has not been discovered before. Daimaru, who grew up in Sandyin Village since he was a child, rarely interacts with ninjas in other villages and wandering ninjas, and really does not understand their thoughts.

The goal is to surpass Konoha Village and look at Daimaru, who is in the whole ninja world, but he ignores that no matter how embarrassed Sandyin Village is, it is still very attractive to other small countries, ninja villages and wandering ninjas.

The tiger skin of the Five Great Ninja Villages is still there, and it is still quite bluffing.

It's really not a big problem that you can't beat Konoha Ninja all the time. The Ninja World has been beaten by Konoha Village in turn, and the performance of Sand Ninja on the battlefield is also remarkable.

It's not that Sandyin Village is too bad, but Konoha Village is too strong. This is also the common perception of ninjas all over the world.

"It's kind of interesting!"

Daimaru wondered, should I mention Ai Luo, put a small number of "naturalized" Sand Ninja places to test the water, maybe it will attract some outstanding external ninjas, and supplement the talent shortage in Sand Hidden Village.

It is not advisable to "close up the country" at the Ninja village level. If Sha Ninja was more aggressive, Xiang Rin and her mother would not be able to take in the kind of grass Ninja.

However, thinking about the previous conditions in Sandyin Village, Daimaru couldn't help but sigh, because his own people were living in a tight situation, and he really had no conditions to help outsiders.

Moreover, ninjas are a profession that relies heavily on intelligence. All kinds of spies are hard to guard against, and even mind reading skills are not guaranteed to be foolproof.Pharmacist Dou, Yura and his like are just a few examples, and there are still many informants under the water.

The risk of accommodating external ninjas is too high, and it is not incomprehensible that the major ninja villages tend to be conservative.

However, for a long time in the future, the relationship between the major Ninja villages will tend to be harmonious, and the conditions of the sandy hidden village have also improved a lot. It seems that you can try it.

It is too slow to recruit talented children from outside.

"The Fourth Ninja World War is coming, and it may be a good thing to have external personnel to replenish! 』

Every means of increasing sib survival is worth considering.

Just outside the Daimaru Shenyou, Guren, who was waiting for further arrangements, reminded:

"What else do we need?"

"Huh? It doesn't seem very good to leave you in Naruto Village like this!"

Daimaru came back to his senses, and after thinking about it, he waved the star puppet string to subdue Guren and Yukimaru. After temporarily confounding their wills, he put two regeneration nuclei into his body, and then performed the secret technique, subterranean brain manipulation. After sealing some "unnecessary" memories, the ban was released.

Daimaru's expectations are not too high for these two people who hardly have too many entanglements, but they are also people who have the boundaries of blood and natural talents, maybe they will use it anytime.

As for Orochimaru, apart from studying ninjutsu and paying attention to Sasuke Uchiha, it is estimated that he will not take other things to heart.

Guren and Yuguimaru were like tasteless to him, even if they would find trouble with Daimaru, it would not be because they wanted to take back the two subordinates, but for other reasons.

Thinking about the pile of filthy dirt he had in his hands, each one was stronger than the other.

"So, I still have to find something for Orochimaru to do! 』

After sending Guren and Yukimaru away and letting the subordinates arrange it, Daimaru quickly contacted the subordinates in Konoha Village. Two days later, the flying ninja of the "Quick Aid Team" "accidentally" found Sasuke Uchiha and Yakushi Kao. The traces of the activity quickly passed the information to the boss.

And the nano poisonous insect of a certain "root" ninja, "coincidentally" detected this secret, so he reported the news to Shimura Danzo.

Soon, the secret assassination unit to which "Root" belongs was dispatched.

……

Daimaru, who has done some trivial things, handles some official business while waiting for Sasuke Uchiha to make a decision.

At this moment, in Konoha Village, the atmosphere within the Hyuga family became more and more tense, and even Hyuga Hizu, the patriarch, was about to be unable to suppress the pressure of the elders.

Sometimes, human feelings and truths don't make sense. There are so many family members who have come here for so many years. Why should Hyuga Neji be an exception?

Just because he's a genius?

Inheritance for nearly a thousand years, the family does not know how many amazing and brilliant big men have come out. Hyuga Neji is not the most outstanding one. The so-called genius, before the real potential is realized, it is not the meaning of this kind of big family. very large.

Neji Hyuga, who stayed at the patriarch's mansion every day and served as a sparring partner for Hinata Hinata and Sister Hinata Hana, felt a little ominous from her uncle's increasingly gloomy face.

The pressure brought by this made the teenager who was not too worried also began to worry about gains and losses.

Impulsively, in the public, to test the taboos of the family, the key is that the game has not been won, and I feel that I have lost a lot.

However, the teenager who has become more mature has no regrets. Even if he does it again, it is very likely that he will make the same choice.

After a day of practice, Hyuga Neji returned to his room, washed and tidy up, and was ready to rest.

Just as he closed his eyes and fell asleep, when he was about to fall asleep, a strange mental fluctuation connected to his mind.

Between half-dreams and half-awakes, he came to a strange place, and in a daze, he saw the girl who once defeated him.

"It's you?"

After calming down a bit, Hyuga Neji looked around, a pitch-dark world with no end in sight, only the place where the two of them were located had light that illuminated their bodies,

"Is it your illusion that brought me here?"

"It's just a wisp of insignificant spirit!"

The pommel horse Yakumo said with a smile,

"I did leave an obscure spiritual force on you! It's not malicious, if you don't need it, over time, that brand will slowly be erased, and it won't have any effect on you, but once your thoughts Some kind of mechanism is triggered that will bring you here..."

"So, it's not that you are looking for me, but that I subconsciously feel that I need to see you..."

"It's easy to talk to a smart person. That's right, the thought of being at a loss and wanting help in your heart is clear in my eyes. Don't get me wrong, I didn't read your memory, just a superficial mood swing..."
