The White Eyed Princess of Konoha

Chapter 389: Lord Kazekage Gaara

Hinata called Gaara out for a one-on-one chat. In fact, there was really no other purpose. She just wanted to reminisce about the past and remember her love for Gaara when she watched "Naruto" in her previous life.

Gaara has really matured a lot since he became the Kazekage, especially his speech when the Ninja Alliance went on an expedition. He was so handsome that he had no friends.

However, as we live among human beings, we cannot help but consider other people’s thoughts.

As Gaara said, there will definitely be people who doubt what Hinata and Gaara said. After all, neither of them are ordinary ninjas, and every move they make will affect the structure of the ninja world.

Thinking of this, Hinata lost the desire to continue chatting.

"Forget it, I hope you can realize your dream soon."

After saying that, Hinata turned and left.

Gaara's calm voice came from behind Hinata: "Same for you!"

Time passed, and Hinata spent the next few days experiencing the folk customs of Sunagakure Village and tasting the unique delicacies of the desert. Although many places are off-limits, there are no restrictions on activities within Sunagakure Village.

Early in the morning, a large number of villagers and ninjas from Sunagakure Village gathered in front of the Kazekage Building. Gaara and several Sunagakure Village elders stood at the highest point of the Kazekage Building, looking down at the crowd below.

Hinata and Kakashi stood on the roof of a building in the distance, watching Gaara's inauguration ceremony from a distance.

Although Hinata and Kakashi were distinguished guests invited by Sunagakure Village, the inauguration ceremony of the 'shadow' was actually very simple. When Tsunade succeeded as the fifth generation Hokage, she only said one sentence.

“There are no seating arrangements!”

Although Hinata was a little aggrieved, only nobles and businessmen could do such things as 'arranging seats'. As ninjas, Hinata and Kakashi already gave Sunagakure a lot of face without hiding in the dark.

On the rooftop of the Kazekage Tower, Gaara took the bamboo hat representing the 'Kazekage' from the elder's hand and slowly walked to the front of the rooftop.

"I used to be a Jinchuuriki who was feared and hated by people. In everyone's eyes, I was just the ultimate weapon of Sunagakure Village... Even I thought so... I regarded myself as the incarnation of Shura, and through killing Prove your own existence..."

"Until that time...I saw another way of living for the jinchūriki."

"..."

Gaara's speech was very formal. He used his own personal experience to describe his changes in mentality, which was indeed very touching.

Moreover, Gaara's performance in the past year and a half has been noticed by others, and many people in Sunagakure Village have recognized Gaara.

Of course, behind this recognition, there must be someone promoting Gaara.

After all, the missions of ninjas are kept secret. If no one helps to publicize and build momentum, how can ordinary ninjas and villagers know about Gaara's changes?

"From today on, I am the fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure Village!"

At the end of the speech, the crowd downstairs by the Kazekage cheered loudly, and thunderous applause resounded throughout Sunagakure Village. They had been waiting for this day for too long.

"Gaara, this guy did a pretty good job!"

Hinata couldn't help but give Gaara a thumbs up.

In Hinata's view, those who want to be leaders must have the ability to speak, because language is the most inflammatory force in the world.

For example, Hinata had a certain moustache in her previous life. This person was very good at speaking. He used his speeches to incite the masses and create a cult of personality, which eventually started a war that swept the world.

There is no doubt that Gaara is a good speaker. If he can give a few more speeches, I believe his position as the Kazekage will quickly stabilize.

Ninjas pursue efficiency, and important ceremonies such as the Kazekage's inauguration will not be too cumbersome. In less than five minutes of speech, the inauguration ceremony came to an end. Everyone dispersed to do their own business, and the entire Sunagakure Village began to officially operate.

In comparison, the hours-long lectures Hinata experienced in her previous life were nothing short of torture.

It is not efficient, not many people will listen carefully, and it also wastes time.

"correct!"

Hinata turned to look at Kakashi and asked: "Kakashi-sensei, are we going back tomorrow?"

"Ah!" Kakashi came back from his daze, scratched his head and said, "There should be something else, but we can probably discuss it tonight."

"That's it!"

Hinata asked curiously: "Kakashi-sensei, what were you thinking about just now?"

Kakashi responded casually: "It's nothing. Children, don't ask too many questions."

Hinata: "..."

There is indeed much to discuss tonight.

There was no Kazekage in Sunagakure Village before, and many cooperations with Konoha were agreements signed by the elders. Now that Gaara has become the Kazekage, these cooperation agreements naturally need to be re-signed.

In fact, it doesn't matter if it remains the same, but Sunagakure Village is dissatisfied with the old cooperation plan. Now that the Kazekage is in power, he will naturally have an excuse to change the treaty.

Gaara had been getting acquainted with these things over the past few days.

That evening, Sunagakure invited Hinata and Kakashi to a meeting.

Hinata was not interested in these things and lay shamelessly on the bed refusing to go. Kakashi had no choice but to go to the meeting alone.

After eating supper in the evening, Hinata took a shower and went to bed. She didn't even know when Kakashi came back.

Early the next morning, Hinata and Kakashi left Sunagakure Village and returned towards Konoha.

Through the conversation on the road, Hinata roughly understood what happened last night.

The Sand Village did want to re-sign some cooperation treaties, but Kakashi refused one by one with the excuse that "he could not represent Konoha". The two sides only discussed the specific matters roughly, and then Kakashi returned to the village to inform Tsunade and make a decision.

Kakashi naturally delayed it as much as possible. Anyway, the matter of the joint Chunin Exam has been determined, and Kakashi directly pushed the matter to August this year.

Tsunade will definitely come to the Sand Village to watch the third round of the Chunin Exam. It will not be too late for Konoha and Sand Village to re-sign the treaty at that time.

In front of the fire, Hinata fiddled with the grilled fish while listening to Kakashi's description of the meeting.

Well! In this way, I can also explain it clearly to Hyuga Hiashi after returning.

After the two Hokage advisors were assassinated by Sasuke, Hyuga Hiashi "lived up to expectations" and served as the Hokage advisor. As for the other Hokage advisor, Nara Shikaku, who represented the three families of Ino, Shika and Chou, served.

The position of the jonin squad leader that Nara Shikaku had taken down was taken over by Kakashi... the guy in front of Hinata who deliberately missed the town to save money and took Hinata to sleep in the wilderness.

Although Hyuga Hiashi served as the Hokage's advisor, he was still very low-key in the village and rarely interfered with the Hokage's decision-making. He was even more homely than Hinata.

At least Hinata would often go out for a stroll and eat delicious food.

But Hyuga Hiashi left home a few times a year. If you want to find Hyuga Hiashi, you can find him in the practice room, study, and bedroom.

Chapter 390 Ding! Your friend Hyuga Hinata is online

"... That's about it!"

After talking about the content of the meeting, Kakashi was relieved. In order to make Hinata understand, Kakashi took a lot of effort.

In the world of ninjas, trade between countries is the responsibility of the daimyo. However, at the beginning of the negotiations, the ninja village as a country's military power is very important.

Without the suppression of military power, the country will not gain an advantage in diplomatic terms.

No matter in which world, trade between two countries is based on protecting the interests of their own country as the first priority and based on national strength.

As one rises and the other falls, the strong village will become stronger and stronger, while the weak village will have to cut back on funding and take the route of elite training.

After the end of the Third World War, the Sand Village has been taking the elite route.

The seemingly powerful Sand Village actually has far fewer ninjas than other villages.

This is also an important reason why Orochimaru's Konoha collapse plan will be supported by the Fourth Kazekage.

Although Konoha has always advocated "peace is the most precious", it will not easily compromise on the interests of the village, otherwise the existence of Danzo will seem unnecessary.

But now that Danzo is gone, it is difficult for Hinata to guess what choice Tsunade will make, whether she will cede part of her interests to the Sand Village because of some things.

This is not impossible.

After all, Konoha's character has always been to maintain peace in the ninja world. Konoha never actively attacks other ninja villages for its own character, and even gives people a weak image.

When Danzo was still alive, Hinata really hated him in every way and didn't even want to see him. But now that Danzo is gone, Hinata is a little worried. Is there anyone in Konoha who can compete with other ninja villages for interests without regard for his face?

If you think about it carefully, Konoha does need someone like Danzo.

Fortunately, Nara Shikaku is smart enough. As Konoha's think tank, he may be able to protect Konoha's interests through negotiations!

After dinner, Hinata walked into the cave with Kakashi with a dark face.

The cold and damp cave discouraged Hinata. If she had known earlier, she would have taken Kakashi back to Konoha and saved herself from suffering.

In the end, she is the one who suffers from a temper. How can she reason with this?

"Teacher Kakashi, you sleep in the cave tonight. I'll go outside to see the moon and help you keep watch!"

Hinata snorted and turned to go out.

Kakashi saw through Hinata's intention at a glance: "You don't want to fly to the town and stay in a hotel by yourself, do you?"

"Humph!"

Hinata didn't bother to answer at all. She walked out of the cave without saying a word. Seeing that Kakashi didn't follow her out, Hinata quickly condensed her chakra wings and flew away.

It was not a prosperous town, but Hinata found the most prosperous hotel in the town.

"Boss, open the most expensive room!"

Hinata has never been a person who lacks money. With a wave of her hand, the legendary 'Room No. 1' belongs to Hinata.

"Ah——"

Soaking in the bathtub, Hinata hummed comfortably. This is life!

Living in a cave is not suitable for Hinata at all. Let Kakashi enjoy it alone!

"Huh?"

Under natural perception, Hinata sensed that Kakashi had followed her without knowing when. After talking to the boss for a few words, he was arranged in the room next to Hinata.

"Damn it! Mr. Kakashi stayed at the hotel himself, but he charged it to my account!"

Hinata gnashed her teeth in hatred. Kakashi is simply not a man.

"Humph! Suffering a loss is a blessing. Sooner or later, Kakashi will pay it back with interest."

Opening the Samsara Eye, Hinata connected to the satellite for visual sharing, took a rough look at various places in the ninja world, and then quickly connected the signal with Uchiha Itachi.

"Ding! Your friend Hyuga Hinata is online and invites you to join the chat group!"

When Uchiha Itachi heard Hinata's voice in his mind, he collapsed.

This was not a computer prompt, but Hinata's words. Every time Hinata chatted with Uchiha Itachi, she would always say this sentence first.

Uchiha Itachi was a serious man. It would be fine if Hinata had something serious to talk to him, but Hinata always talked to him for a chat.

In the long run, even if Uchiha Itachi was calm, he would be miserable now.

Uchiha Itachi didn't say anything at all, just pretend he didn't hear it.

"Is there any news about Sasuke?"

When it comes to dealing with Uchiha Itachi, Hinata has a lot of ways.

"No news yet, I can't leave the base at all..."

Look, didn't Uchiha Itachi reply?

Hinata was lying in the bathtub, and said weakly: "Itachi, I tell you, Kakashi is really infuriating. We left the Sand Village today, and he insisted that I take him back. Isn't it infuriating? Does he think chakra is free?"

"Chakra also needs to be replenished by eating, which costs a lot of money!"

"I said I would run back, but he took me to live in a cave... I ran to stay in a hotel by myself, and he followed me secretly."

"What's more, Kakashi stayed in the hotel by himself, but he even charged it to my account... Tell me, how can there be such a person as Kakashi in this world?"

"Too shameless!"

Uchiha Itachi was silent again.

Hinata decisively changed the subject: "Itachi! I've been thinking about one thing today."

"When Danzo was still alive, I always disliked him. But now he is dead, this time Konoha and Sand Village renegotiated and signed a new cooperation treaty. Without Danzo, I am always worried that Konoha will suffer."

"Do you think some of Danzo's practices are right or wrong?"

Uchiha Itachi pondered for a moment, and said in a serious tone: "Everyone's existence has its value, and right and wrong cannot be determined in one word. We look at the same thing from different angles, and we will come to different conclusions..."
