Anbu Biography

"Caravan?"

The faces of the three Shinobi Shinobi were a little dazed.

At the age of 12, and having spent most of his life training as a ninja, this vocabulary is indeed something that rarely appears in memory.Moreover, the other party's clothes, which were obviously different from the Konoha Ninja uniform, clearly showed their identity. Faced with an Anbe member spitting out "business" vocabulary, Temari and the others were a little caught off guard.

"Ninjas need to pass customs documents to enter and leave Sand Ninja Village."

Temari thought about it, and said cautiously: "Even if Sagan owes you Konoha favors now, this basic rule cannot be violated casually."

"Don't worry, I still know this."

Kiyohiko nodded: "First of all, let me introduce myself, Uchiha Kiyohiko, an active member of Anbe, the specific class is not convenient to disclose, but he will stay in Konoha in the near future."

The amount of information contained in this name is so huge that the expressions of the three people, including Gaara, all froze for a moment.

Is there something wrong with Sha Yin's intelligence system?Or Konoha has been playing such a big game of chess? ?

Various thoughts floated through Temari's mind. As the oldest of the three, she had to leave the village ahead of time when she was involved in the review for leading a team of Kamichi Magi for allegedly murdering Konoha Special Jomin. Take responsibility... After all, having Kankuro or Gaara in charge is just too outrageous anyway.

"About, Konoha still has the remaining members of the Uchiha clan, this information..."

Temari suddenly felt that every word was difficult to say.

"Well, there are various reasons. I left the village a long time ago and only recently came back."

Kiyohiko turned sideways to get out of the corridor of the hospital. The short period of their conversation has already interfered with the normal work of the medical ninjas: "Let's talk in another place, this is obviously not a place for discussion."

The ninjas moved very fast, and within 3 minutes, they were seated in the "Gan Li Gan" shop.

The owner of the store has obviously seen the lethality of Gaara, and he flinched a bit after seeing the visitors, but anyway, the resident residents of Konoha Ninja Village can be considered weather-beaten, and he still helped open the chairs for everyone very conscientiously. : "You... what do you want to eat?"

"Chestnut yokan, four servings, thank you."

Qing Yan skillfully ordered: "The chestnut desserts in this store are very good, and the chestnut bean porridge is also very popular, do you want to try it?"

"..."

Facing an Anbe with the surname of Uchiha who has been hiding his identity, even though Temari is sure that the opponent alone will definitely not be able to defeat the three of them including Gaara, but... is this scene too relaxed now?

"I, I still..."

"Local specialties? I'll eat them."

Kankuro said.

Gaara glanced at him: "I eat too."

Temari: "..."

The only one who was still thinking about diplomatic issues suddenly felt a headache: "Forget it, I will eat too."

Looking at Temari who clearly wrote "these two bastards can't move" written on his face, Kiyohiko couldn't help but want to laugh a little - he really still has the character of a teenager, even if he has received systematic ninja training.

The chestnut yokan for four people was quickly served on the table. The dark brown yokan cubes contained large candied chestnuts, neatly stacked on a long white porcelain plate, which looked particularly pleasing to the eye.

"When I was young, I liked to sit here when the mission was over and I had free time."

Kiyohiko introduced: "There will be a special sale of chestnut gold balls during the festival, which is part of the New Year's cuisine, and many people will buy it back to eat."

"Oh, sure enough, if you come to Konoha, you should invite a local tour guide. We can't find a real authentic specialty store in the streets."

Kankuro had a "sure enough" expression on his face.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

She slammed a palm on the top of Kankuro's head, but after she controlled it, she turned her head and saw Gaara thinking about the chestnut yokan in front of her: "..."

Forget it, Temari's face is numb, you two can eat whatever you want.

Temari, who was the only one with a brain, felt deeply that he had a heavy responsibility: "Then, let's talk about what you just said. What kind of caravan do you want to form?"

"Well, it happens that I have some reliable subordinates."

Kiyohiko nodded: "The southwest border of the Land of Fire faces the sea alone, and the entire border is an area with lush vegetation. The offshore aquatic products and forestry crops are excellent. If possible, I would like to form a land from Fire Land to Wind Land a trading team."

"It's not impossible..."

Temari imagined: "But the loss of this kind of trade will be very large. From the country of fire to the country of wind, there will be a series of small countries and independent autonomous regions in the middle. When you are staring at the fat of business and trade, it is almost common to block roads and rob—as a ninja, you can’t always watch the escort yourself every time, can you?”

In fact, there are not many "tariffs" among these countries at all, and it is even more nonsense to talk about "trade protection".The damage done by wanton armed groups is enough to drive up the price of cross-border transactions, the more so the farther away they are.

Especially the land of grass, the land of birds, and the land of rain, which are sandwiched between the three major powers, were the main battlefields where the great powers fought during the Ninja War. The rampant hotbed, passing through such a "three no-regards zone" of merchants, will have to be skinned if they don't die.

So much so that Bird Country is quite poor up and down—the daimyo's cronies can't afford the mission rewards for hiring ninjas.

Under such circumstances, even some "merchant ninjas" emerged as the times require, but even so, most people's strength is difficult to cope with this loss.

The strength of Konoha ninjas, especially the strength of Konoha Anbe, is not necessary, but a ninja village is definitely unwilling to dispatch a lot of precious combat power to do this kind of thing-after all, if you have money, you have to spend your life. After making money, the village The situation of being robbed sounds more serious.

"I'm generally aware of these situations."

Kiyohiko nodded: "If we can dispatch a six-man unit with rich experience in frontal combat and strength around Chunin, I think it should be enough to take on the responsibility of escorting trade goods."

"But where did you get a team of six Chunin?"

Temari began to feel that his brain was not enough: "Konoha's ninja combat power is not sufficient enough to be so wasteful... And from my observations these days, your Jonin and Chunin have been almost Spinning in high-efficiency coupling."

"Well, in short, there are various reasons. After I returned from traveling in the village, I brought the vassals I took in with me."

The black-haired young man smiled harmlessly: "So I think there should be no problem with people, the key lies in the goods - it will be good for everyone if there is no middleman to make the difference, presumably the Kingdom of Winds should also have the necessary supplies for you Bar?"

That's right.

Moreover, if there are ninjas from Anbu—especially a Uchiha—to guarantee, it sounds better than maintaining the status quo and allowing the Kingdom of the Wind to continue to bear the high trade price.

Having said that, Sha Yin Village wants to sneak attack on Konoha, because it is greedy for Konoha's current pleasing terrain. If materials can be obtained at a relatively cheap price, internal conflicts can indeed be alleviated to a certain extent.Except for Gaara, the three of them will inevitably be branded as the sphere of influence of the previous generation of Kazekage. Now the power change in Sand Hidden Village is chaotic, and they will be regarded as abandoned children if they are not careful.

And now Uchiha Kiyohiko’s suggestion can be said to be sending pillows when you are sleepy. If this matter can be done smoothly, it will not only reflect the value of them who contributed to this matter, but also a way to ease the relationship between the two ninja villages. This move can be said to kill three birds with one stone.

"So, you found us at this time...?"

As Kazekage's daughter, what Temari can think of is still a little bit more than her peers.

"Hahaha, if I said it was a coincidence, you probably wouldn't believe it."

Kiyohiko stroked his hair and seemed a little relieved: "Speaking of which, compared to being a ninja, I'm quite good at these heresy things."

"That's really thanks to your kindness. When we return to Hidden Sand Village, we can take the caravan with us by the way, and we can also tell you some convenient shortcuts."

Temari said gratefully, and did not forget to ask the official attitude at this time: "Then, where is Hokage-sama...?"

"They are my retainers, and they only obey my instructions. As for Tsunade-sama, since it will generate income for Konoha Village, I guess he will not refuse."

Kiyohiko replied with a smile.

The author has something to say:

General notes:

The details of the fact that none of the daimyo's cronies in the country of birds can afford the mission fee come from the original plot of the anime.

The reason why running a business makes money is because there are always people robbing darts (...)

Gaara and the three brothers belong to the faction of the former Kazekage, but Sand Yin has other factions (analyzed from the comics)
