After Konoha decided on the departure date and the candidates, the pressure was put on the Sand Village. The Kazekage Retsuto almost immediately decided to send the second-in-command Shamon to be the guide of Shenyue with Chiyo, Sandstorm and Ebizo.

Shamon's intelligence is extremely outstanding. It is not an exaggeration to regard him as the Senju Tobirama of the Sand Village. It was Chiyo's idea to hand over the tailed beasts to Konoha. In addition, she had met Uchiha Shenyue, so Retsuto and Shamon gave her the important task of diplomacy. Sandstorm and Ebizo can naturally become experts in desert gold panning with their magnetic escapades and puppetry.

As for Retsuto and his guards, they will continue to stay in Konoha, learn the various systems of Konoha in person, and flatter Hashirama all day long, striving to become Hashirama's friend when Uchiha Madara is not around.

On the day of departure, Hashirama's eyes were filled with tears, and the envy in his eyes almost overflowed with tears.

"Woo, I want to go out of the village for a walk too!"

"Brother, don't think about it, just take care of the house."

Tobirama glared coldly at Hashirama, who looked like a big dog, and rejected his request without hesitation. Another Tobirama took over the conversation, grabbed Hashirama's collar and dragged him back to the Hokage building.

"There are still a batch of documents to be processed later, and several Kages need you to receive them, don't think about running away."

"Ban, save me!"

When Hashirama heard that he had to process the documents, his face turned pale in an instant. He helplessly reached out to Ban, who was looking at him with a raised eyebrow, but was rejected most ruthlessly.

"Just stay here."

Ban, who did not intend to save Hashirama, waved his hand casually, turned around and walked forward with Shenyue, followed by Huohe, leaving Senju Tobirama and a group of Sand Ninjas behind.

Seeing these three Uchiha's arrogant look, Tobirama sighed imperceptibly, turned his head and glanced at the village behind him worriedly.

The clones created by the Shadow Clone Technique can evenly distribute the chakra of the original body. It will inevitably consume a lot of chakra to maintain it for a long time, but Tobirama really has no other way. If he really leaves, Hashirama will probably lose himself in the casino today!

There is no way, if you have such a big brother, you will suffer constantly.

With a very sad heart, Tobirama turned his head and his eyes unconsciously focused on Shenyue, who was following Madara closely like a little clingy spirit. For some reason, she was unusually quiet today.

Probably for the convenience of travel, Shenyue was carrying a backpack that seemed a little too big for her. The silk-woven backpack was bulging, and it seemed that there were a lot of things in it.

This is wrong!

Looking at Shenyue carrying a backpack and the cute smile on her face, Tobirama not only did not have a little pity for her, but his doubts in his heart grew.

If she wanted to take something, wouldn't Madara and the Fire Core have to bring it all for her? Why would she need to carry it herself?

Thinking of this, Tobirama walked forward quickly, found the right opportunity and directly opened Shenyue's backpack. Sure enough, a red fox with nine tails was comfortably nestled in the inner pocket of the backpack full of fluff.

"Why are you rummaging through my things?"

Shenyue was stunned for a moment, and immediately snatched the backpack and the Kurama in the backpack from Tobirama's hands, and his face turned red with anger.

Tobirama looked at the fox, and then looked at Shenyue who was holding the fox. The corners of his mouth twitched violently, and his Adam's apple rose and fell violently. He was about to laugh at the absurd scene.

This was simply a nightmare replay. Hashirama, that bastard, liked to use this trick to bring the small animals he picked up home and throw them to him to raise!

Thinking of the years when he was forced to clean up the shit for his brother and his brother's pets, Senju Tobirama's eyes went dark, and he was full of bitterness that he couldn't tell others. He took several deep breaths, and then he suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and asked Shenyue with a dark face:

"Why did you take it?"

Kuroma roared angrily, with nine fluffy tails standing straight up. His silly look was really cute, but unlike his cute appearance, his temper was really bad, just like Uchiha:

"I went there if I wanted to, what's your business, damn white hair?"

"Shenyue took it if she wanted to, and it didn't eat your food, why do you care so much?"

Seeing the fox in Shenyue's schoolbag, Huohe was actually shocked. He knew that Shenyue must be weird for suddenly taking out a schoolbag, but when he saw Tobirama, his anger value rose.

Who does he think he is? Shen Yue is his beloved daughter. How dare Tobirama question her private affairs?

Uchiha Madara, who had been walking in the front, stopped. He turned around and glanced at Tobirama coldly. The murderous intent in his eyes spread like water waves. For a moment, everyone was so frightened by the murderous intent that they could not move.OK.

Madara snorted coldly, and threw the fox in Shenyue's hand to Huohe beside him, and then leaned down and hugged Shenyue tightly.

The master and the apprentice strode forward and soon left everyone behind.

"Humph!"

Huohe snorted coldly and rolled his eyes, grabbed the fox and chased after it. Tobirama, who was so angry that his liver hurt, sighed that he and Uchiha were really incompatible. He kept a distance from the three Uchiha on the way, and the four people from the Sand Village who had been watching with wide eyes were so shocked that they could hardly walk!

"Sister..."

Ebizo pointed enviously at Uchiha Madara who was holding Shenyue, then pointed at himself, then pointed at Chiyo, and then opened his arms. With a few simple movements, his intentions were clearly reflected in front of Chiyo.

In response, she raised her fist and hit Ebizo on the forehead, gritting her teeth and whispering:

"Get out of here!"

......

The further away from Konoha, the more you can feel the huge gap between the rich and the poor.

As she got further away from Konoha's sphere of influence, Shen Yue seemed to have stepped from heaven into hell. The road in front of her became muddy, the buildings became dilapidated, the bustling market disappeared, and the people coming and going became more and more pale and thin.

Smiles and anger never favor those who are busy running for a living, but after seeing these ninjas, people's faces still showed expressions of yearning and respect.

For the people of the Fire Country now, ninjas represent Konoha, and Konoha is the holy land in their hearts.

Along the way, the people of Konoha who were heading towards the Wind Country encountered a strange scene. Many refugees from all over the Fire Country dragged their families and marched towards Konoha with difficulty.

Among these people, some lost their arms due to the cruelty of the nobles, some had to beg for a living after eating all the dry food, and some died on the way to escape. However, even though the journey was so difficult, this group of refugees continued to move towards Konoha.

When Shen Yue asked them why they did this, this group of refugees described it in a dreamy tone, saying that in Konoha, people can not only eat enough, but also see doctors when they are sick, and even go to school. If the children are successful, they can become great ninjas in the future!

Only when talking about Konoha, the light of hope will flash in the eyes of these people who are constantly struggling in suffering.

Looking at these people with expectant faces, Shen Yue felt very uncomfortable. At this moment, she seemed to understand why Madara and Hashirama were so eager to spread peace to the entire ninja world.

Konoha is no longer miserable, but the Land of Fire and the Ninja World are still miserable...

After saying goodbye to the refugees, the group continued on their way, but when they arrived at the border of the Land of Fire, everything changed again.

The residents here stared at them with extremely hateful eyes. They clenched the stones and mud around them, but they were so hungry that they didn't even have the strength to throw stones at the damn ninjas.

There were people who were about to starve to death everywhere. Sick mothers were begging for food with their dead babies in their arms. A group of hungry children huddled under the ruins, desperately waiting for death.

Looking at the dead bodies that had starved to death on the road and those who were about to starve to death, not only Shenyue, but also Madara, Huhe, Tobirama and even the four people from the Sand Village showed extremely shocked expressions on their faces.

It's no exaggeration to say that Shenyue was scared silly, but soon, her body was shaking with anger, and her eyes soon burst into a sharp look like fire.

"What is going on?"

Konoha has been providing food to poor areas at extremely low prices, and even providing free assistance to disaster areas where famine has occurred. Logically, this place should be no exception, but why are so many people starving to death?

The gloomy Uchiha almost immediately decided to stay and find out the truth. The Sand Village dared not offend these angry red-eyed monsters at this time, so they could only help them investigate. Even Kurama was smart enough to hide in his schoolbag and would not come out even if he was beaten to death.

Ordinary people are certainly not the opponents of these top ninjas. Not long after, Tobirama and Kanoko came back with dark faces and integrated the information they found.

Someone is maliciously manipulating the price of food, first buying Konoha's food at a low price, then transporting the food to the border areas where Konoha cannot control, and finally selling the food to these starving victims at a high price.

And the culprits are, of course, those rich businessmen who are rich and unkind.

The wealthy businessmen of the Land of Fire did not dare to act rashly in Konoha, so they extended their hands to the border areas. They proved one thing, that is, if you want to make money, as long as you are a little ruthless, you can make money even in such a poor and remote place.There is money to be made.

The wealthy merchants stationed in the border areas are closely connected with the small nobles in the countryside, and they use this relationship to manipulate the price of rice. The two vicious wolves and tigers not only want to take away all the wealth in the hands of the civilians, but also sell the low-priced grain at a high price when they are too poor to afford it, and finally push all the pots to Konoha, forming a perfect combo.

Thinking about the grain price that is six or seven times higher than when Konoha sold it, Tobirama was almost laughed out of anger by this group of scum. He suddenly clenched his fists, suppressed his anger and kept thinking about the loopholes in Konoha's grain sales.

The grain sold from Konoha will of course be strictly inspected, but after changing hands many times, it is normal that no follow-up can be found. After all, grain is used to eat, especially the grain sold to the Land of Fire, which is often not paid attention to after being inspected once.

"Someone under your command must have taken advantage!"

Uchiha Huohe was so angry that veins popped up on his temples. He was so angry that he had nowhere to vent. After handling government affairs in the clan for many years, he almost immediately guessed that someone must have secretly accepted bribes from the rich businessman.

"...Hehe, hahahaha!"

Just as Huohe and Tobirama were arguing endlessly, Madara suddenly sneered hoarsely, and soon, the sneer turned into a wild laugh. The increasingly cold and suppressed wild laugh made everyone present shudder.

"Master, we will change all this."

Just when Madara's manic mood was about to go crazy, Shenyue suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes. The girl's eyes were clear and bright, like a pool of soft and clear lake water.

These eyes seemed to have magic power, and successfully calmed Uchiha Madara who was almost mad. Shenyue's expression suddenly became sharp and angry, and a strong and cold aura like a needle was emitting from her body.

Although she remained calm on the outside, in fact, Shen Yue was also very angry. She cursed all the insane termites in her heart, including their ancestors.

She spoke each word with emphasis, as if she was squeezing out the words directly from between her teeth:

"Then, uproot the termites here."

Having experienced the hard days of the Warring States Period, she knew how painful hunger was. This shameless behavior undoubtedly touched the bottom line of the ninjas.

The wealthy merchants and small nobles who thought they could do evil in the frontier would face their punishment tonight.
