74 chapter 74

The Five Kages Conference had just begun, and the whole atmosphere was already tense.

Especially Konoha Village, which has just experienced the night of genocide.

Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, immediately became furious when provoked even slightly.

Hatake Kakashi behind him, and Terumi Mei and Hoshigaki Kisame behind Kuzan are also ready to fight at any time.

The leader of the Iron Kingdom, Mifune, hurriedly persuaded: "Okay, both of you.

"I've already said that the Five Kages Conference is about peace and resolving issues through negotiations. Otherwise, why bother to hold the Five Kages Conference? Wouldn't it be better to just go to war?"

Only then did Sarutobi Hiruzen calm down a little.

"Mizukage-sama, I, Konoha Village, will settle this account with you."

Kuzan smiled: "Sarutobi Hiruzen, don't you think that Konoha is really a teacher of justice?"

"I would like to ask, where were you, Master of Justice, when Sunagakure invaded my Kirigakure?"

"I was defeated by Mist Shinobi after the invasion, but you took them in immediately, so you support Sunagakure's invincible invasion on Kirigakure?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was taken aback for a moment, then said coldly: "I, Konoha, and Sunagakure are originally allies."

"Although I don't agree with them invading other countries, but after losing the war and being in a desperate situation, I can't just sit idly by and ask my Konoha Village for help."

"alliance?"

"What a good alliance, can a sentence of alliance disregard right and wrong?"

Kuzan said indifferently: "Then if I, Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and Cloud Shinobi Village form an alliance today, can I also launch an invasion war against your Konoha Village and Sunagakure?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed drastically!

Kuzan's words seemed to be refuting himself, but in fact, they were actually suggesting intentionally or unintentionally.

Tsuchikage's Onoki, and Fourth Raikage are not fools either.

Immediately understood the meaning inside and outside Kuzan's words.

Sunagakure is currently the weakest, and Konoha Village has just experienced civil strife and is also the weakest period since its creation.

If the other three major powers form an alliance, it will indeed be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

When the time comes to defeat Konoha and Sand Shinobi, the three major powers can each get what they need and gain huge benefits.

It has to be said that Kuzan's proposal immediately moved the hearts of the two scales Onogi and Fourth Raikage.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately used his own way to deal with him.

"Hmph, Konoha Village has already formed an alliance with Sand Shinobi. If you form an alliance with Rock Shinobi Cloud Shinobi, it will be equally easy to carve up your Kirigakure together!"

Kuzan smiled.

"Master Hokage, what you said is very straightforward.

"However, if the four big countries fight against a small Kirigakure, and it is an archipelago country that is isolated overseas, even if they win, how much profit can they share?"

"As for our three-nation alliance, Sand Shinobi aside, you, Konoha Village and the Land of Fire, have a vast land and abundant resources, are prosperous and rich, and everyone knows them."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed again.

Because what Kuzan said is true.

Why is Konoha Village often an enemy of the world.

On the one hand, of course, it is because it is too powerful, on the other hand, it is also because Konoha Village and the Land of Fire occupy the best geographical location in the entire ninja world.

Regardless of land, resources, economy, and population, they are all at the top.

There is no doubt that it is the fattest piece of meat in the world.

Originally, this piece of fat was in the hands of Senju Hashirama, the ninja god, so no one dared to touch it.

But as soon as he died, the first ninja world war broke out immediately.

The other four major powers formed an alliance to besiege Konoha Village, not just to carve up land and interests.

But Senju Tobirama is not to be trifled with either.

Using various Forbidden Technique, Impure World Reincarnation, and Tandem Paper Bombs( explosive tags ), they resisted the allied forces of the other four major countries and successfully defended Konoha Village.

Unfortunately.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's generation, Konoha Village has declined further and further under his painstaking management.

Generations of talents withered, even geniuses, either were persecuted to commit suicide, or defected in exile, and all left Konoha Village.

The current Konoha is like a piece of fat, held in the hands of a weak person.

The other major powers are of course eyeing it.

What Kuzan proposes is exactly what all the other great powers have in mind.

This is the so-called conspiracy.

Even if they said it outright, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Konoha Village had no way to refute it.

Onogi smiled.

He and Sarutobi Hiruzen are both Third Generation members of their respective villages, and they have also been there for ten years, so they can be said to be old rivals.

"Don't worry, Hokage-sama, I, Iwagakure, will not do such a thing."

Kuzan glanced at him and smiled slightly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was shocked.

Of course he wouldn't believe what the old fox said.

What's more, looking at Kuzan's smile, it's clear that he's talking about...

I understand what you mean, let's talk in private later.

Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help being furious.

Is this fooling a fool?!

Everyone is an old fox, what kind of chat room are you playing here!

He snorted coldly and said, "Onoki, you don't have to be smug here, just speak up if you have anything to say!"

Onogi, the , smiled and said, "Speak directly?"

"Alright, then I'll say it."

"I'm very interested in Mizukage-sama's proposal."

Of course, Fourth Raikage will not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"I can't say I'm not interested in Cloud Shinobi Village."

Kuzan said with a smile: "Very well, then we will form an alliance of three countries, and the name will be called the Anti-Konoha Alliance!"

for a moment.

The faces of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Rasa were even more ugly.

The two are now grasshoppers on the same rope, and it can be said that they are going to die together.

Mifune sighed.

Sure enough, the Five Kage talks that had been agreed upon turned into threats and intimidation in the end.

Of course he is also an old fox.

Know what Kuzan, Onogi and Fourth Raikage mean.

It is nothing more than directly expressing on the bright side that the three countries will form an alliance to launch a war, invade Konoha and Sand Shinobi, and after victory, divide the fruits and seize benefits.

The purpose is to force Konoha and Sand Shinobi to hand over part of their interests directly.

In this way, you can benefit without starting a war.

Of course, if Konoha Village refuses, then it is not impossible for the three countries to form an alliance.

Rasa couldn't help snorting coldly: "Master Mizukage, you accused me of Sunagakure invading other countries."

"But what you're doing now, isn't it also an attempt to invade?!"

Kuzan glanced at him and said indifferently, "Blood for blood, tooth for a tooth."

"Rasa, don't tell me you invaded my Mist village, and you still don't allow me to fight back for revenge?"

"You can't be so naive?!"

Rasa was speechless for a moment.

"However, you are cooperating with other two countries to exert pressure, which is clearly threatening and intimidating!"

Kuzan said: "You can form an alliance with Konoha after you fail, why can't I, Mist Shinobi?"

"It's ridiculous for you to say this, is Fourth Kazekage's knowledge like this?"

"No wonder you lost so badly in the battle of Sand Shinobi Mist Shinobi, no wonder the current Sunagakure is getting weaker and weaker under your leadership."

Rasa also couldn't help saying furiously: "You!!!"

Kuzan casually said a few words, and already drove Sarutobi Hiruzen and Rasa to death.

But what he said was true.

Onogi smiled, although it was the first time he saw Kuzan himself.

But those rumors had already spread throughout the entire ninja world.

Now it seems that he really deserves his reputation.

Regardless of brains, means, and strength, they are all unparalleled in the world.

What's more, he is still so young.

Fourth Raikage is another view.

He suddenly felt that although he could form an alliance with Kirigakure now, I am afraid that Cloud Shinobi Mist Shinobi will also have a battle sooner or later!

The current Cloud Shinobi Village force is almost the strongest among the five major countries.

And Kuzan turned out to lead Kirigakure to rise strongly, and will inevitably challenge the status of other big countries.

Of course, this is something.

Although Fourth Raikage is reckless, he also knows that Konoha Village is still the one that can give Cloud Shinobi the greatest benefit.

At this time, Kuzan, Onoki and Fourth Raikage quickly stood together without reservation.

The faces of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Rasa became more and more ugly.

Rasa looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Now he can only watch Konoha Village's face and act.

There is no power of self-determination at all.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was also very angry.

But that's the way it is now.

If there is a real war, as Kuzan said, the other three major powers will form an anti-Konoba alliance, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally calmed down.

He suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice, "Tell me your conditions!"

Kuzan smiled slightly.

It seems that old guy Sarutobi Hiruzen is as weak as he imagined...

The reason why he is so confident is because he knows Sarutobi Hiruzen's behavior style.

Internally tough, externally weak.

It's not that Kuzan deliberately blackmailed him.

But it is indeed so.

Internally, he engaged in political struggles, almost fighting away or killing all the outstanding ninjas, making the Senju clan, Uchiha clan, etc. disappear into history.

Let Konoha Village decline more and more.

Externally, most of the time, they were submissive, surrendering and compromising .

Not to mention anything else, just the event that Cloud Shinobi Village robbed the blood successor of the Hyuga clan a few years ago.

If it were any bloody leader, he would definitely deal with it directly and forcefully.

Others have stolen to your own door, the fact is there, it is tantamount to hitting your face at your house.

But how did Sarutobi Hiruzen do it?

Let Hyuga Hiashi go pay for his life and die.

In the end, it was indeed Hyuga Hizashi who took the blame, but from now on, what loyalty will the Hyuga clan have to Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Hokage?

All the Hyuga family, and even other families must be extremely chilling.

Kuzan can understand the thinking of this kind of person.

Just keep your position at all costs.

Even if the village is getting weaker and weaker, it is still its own village.

I would rather become weak in my own hands than become stronger in the hands of others.

really.

Now Sarutobi Hiruzen's arrogance disappeared quickly.

Obediently entered the link of raising conditions.

Onoki and Fourth Raikage both looked at Kuzan.

The three old foxes looked at each other and smiled.

Next, there is the so-called negotiation conditions.

First of all, of course, is money.

All three major powers gave their numbers.

Of course not too much, otherwise even Sarutobi Hiruzen would fight at all costs.

This is the so-called cannibalization policy.

In the end, the three big countries only requested an amount of one billion taels for each village.

We must know that the weak Sunagakure can also come up with a ransom of 870 million.

Not to mention the most powerful Konoha Village.

Of course, these three countries add up to three billion.

For Konoha, this can't be regarded as dredging from the bottom of the pot, but it is indeed hurting

besides.

Each major country gets what it needs in addition to money.

What Iwagakure wants is land.

Their terrain is mountainous, and most of them are barren hills with jagged soil and rocks, making it difficult to develop agriculture and economy.

Nature craves fertile land.

What Cloud Shinobi Village wants is resources to supplement military combat power.

Such as various materials, resources, ninja tools, kunai, shuriken, and explosive tags.

As for Kuzan and Kirigakure, what they want are various ninjutsu, secret techniques, scrolls of Forbidden Technique!

Sarutobi Hiruzen has long been prepared for the conditions of the other two countries.

But for Kuzan condition, he was taken aback.

"Mizukage-sama, you know I can't promise this!"

"If all the ninjutsu Forbidden Technique of Konoha Village is disclosed, it is tantamount to letting Konoha Village perish!!!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally hardened himself.

Kuzan also knew that he shouldn't push people into a hurry, so he smiled and said, "You misunderstood, Lord Hokage."

"I don't want all ninjutsu secrets Forbidden Technique."

"Everything I want is written here."

He handed the scroll prepared in advance to Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was taken aback.

Well, you really have a plan, and you even made a list of my Konoha Village ninjutsu that you want!

Sarutobi Hiruzen opened it and took a look.

The first one is Hasirama cells.

"First Hokage Senju Hashirama's Cells, and Konoha Village Research Materials on Hashirama Cells and Wood Style Mysteries."

Sarutobi Hiruzen: "???"

You're really taking the bottom line!!!

Second one.

"The Book of Seals Left by Second Hokage Senju Tobirama."

Third one.

"All Orochimaru's research materials are sealed in Konoha Village."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked over one by one, his entire back was drenched in cold sweat.

Others want me to hurt Konoha Village, Mizukage Kuzan wants me to die!!!!

He went through all the requirements listed by Kuzan.

Then he slammed the scroll on the table!

boom!!!

"Mizukage-sama, these demands of yours, money Konoha Village can't give!"

"Each one is a secret technique that shakes the foundation of the entire Konoha Village. Forbidden Technique!"

"If you insist on looting, then I, Konoha Village, can only go to war!"

"Big deal, I will meet the demands of Cloud Shinobi and Rock Shinobi, in exchange for the condition that the two countries stay put, and only fight to the death with you, Kirigakure!!!"

Kuzan smiled, it seems that Sarutobi Hiruzen was really pushed...

But he also knows that this seems to be a solution, but Sarutobi Hiruzen will not choose this unless it is a last resort.

Because after the war with Mist Shinobi, it can only be a lose-lose situation.

Iwagakure and Cloud Shinobi Village, will definitely take advantage of it.

He, Sarutobi Hiruzen, is not a fool, how could he believe that they would really stand still and watch the tigers fight?!

But Kuzan listed these conditions precisely to make Sarutobi Hiruzen furious.

Next, to be able to bargain better.

This is called business skill.

Kuzan crossed his hands and smiled slightly: "Then...."

" Let's have a good chat ."
