200 Chapter 200: Spreading Dual-Color Haki! The "Aunt" Snake Returns to Konohagakure!

Land of Wind.

Sunagakure Village.

Kazekage's Office.

"5 million ryo? Just to repair a road, do we need so much money? The village only gives 1 million! No more!"

"To open a new canal, we need to apply for a budget of 13 million ryo? We only have 3 million, take it or leave it!"

"Two Chunin died in the line of duty during a mission, the blood money adds up to 500,000 ryo... cough, the village's finances are a bit tight recently, let's talk about the blood money next month."

"How does the Sunagakure Village orphanage need 2 million ryo a month? Over a hundred orphans, does it cost so much a month? The orphanage's budget for next month is cut to 1 million ryo!"

"There are five old ninjas clamoring for three years of overdue pensions? Hmph, let them wait!"

"Sigh....."

As the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure Village, "Rasa's" biggest trouble every day is that Sunagakure Village is very poor, so poor that he, the Fourth Kazekage, has to pinch pennies in all aspects.

He also knows that it's hard to do some things well with so little money allocated to various aspects.

But the village's money is just that much.

Even.

Sometimes the village is so poor that he, the Fourth Kazekage, has to personally go to the desolate desert to search for gold.

It's not easy to search for a little gold, and then he has to exchange these gold pieces for money and throw it into the bottomless pit of the ninja village.

Who says that being the kage of a village means being at the peak of power and omnipotent?

Rasa has never seen a shadow more bitter than himself!

Nor has he seen a kage poorer than himself!

"Sigh!" Rasa, sitting in a chair, sighed again, shaking his head with a worried look: "If the Land of Wind Daimyo's funds don't come over, the village won't be able to operate."

Knock!

"Lord Kazekage! There's an urgent report!"

A knock on the door suddenly sounded, followed by the voice of a Sunagakure ninja.

"Come in!" Rasa's face quickly lost its worried look, he put on a stern face, and his tone was rather low.

The office door was pushed open.

"Lord Kazekage!" The Sunagakure ninja who came in hurriedly put the intelligence file in his hand on the office desk: "This is an urgent report from Konohagakure Village, related to this Chunin exam."

"Oh?" Rasa raised an eyebrow, originally Sunagakure Village did not want to participate in this Chunin exam held by Konohagakure Village.

Because, the village really can't allocate more money, to let a group of Genin go so far to participate in the Chunin exam.

But Konohagakure promised that all expenses would be borne by Konohagakure. So Rasa sent a bunch of Sunagakure Genin over.

After all, Sunagakure Village doesn't need to pay. After all, even the travel expenses to get there are reimbursed by Konohagakure Village.

"At this time, the Chunin exam should not be over yet?"

Rasa flipped through the intelligence file.

He looked at it intently.

"....."

The entire Kazekage office suddenly fell into a silent atmosphere.

Every line of text on the intelligence made Rasa's eyes widen a bit, and his face was full of incredulous expressions.

Puff.....

The fingers holding the intelligence file were so forceful that they directly pierced the paper.

One can imagine how tumultuous Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage's mood is at this moment.

"It's too much!!!"

Saying "It's too much" twice is enough to prove how angry he is.

The veins on his forehead are trembling with his rage.

"A bunch of pirate scoundrels! Dare to threaten Sunagakure Village?"

"Homma Heiji, that waste, actually agreed to pay the ransom?"

"Trash!!"

"Scum!!"

In his rage, Rasa swept all the items on the office desk, and his hand just crumpled the intelligence file into a ball.

"Damn Whitebeard Pirate Group, do they really think Sunagakure Village is made of mud? Do they think their mere pirate group can make Sunagakure Village fear them?"

"Cough cough!" The coughing of an old man interrupted Rasa's loss of composure.

An old man with a light yellow bandage wrapped around his head and unusually long white eyebrows stood in front of the office door.

This person is one of the senior advisors of Sunagakure Village, Ebizo.

He is also a high-ranking figure in Sunagakure Village who has retired to the second line.

Of course.

The so-called retirement to the second line is only in name.

In fact, Hailaozang still controls the intelligence agency of Sunagakure Village and holds a pivotal position in Sunagakure Village.

Even if Rasa is the Fourth Kazekage.

He also has to respect Ebizo.

"I found out that I left my fishing gear in the office building yesterday, so I wanted to come and get it today. I just got the fishing gear and wanted to leave the office building, just passing by here." Ebizo explained that he was not eavesdropping.

Kazekage-sama, what happened? Can you tell me, an old man who has already retired?

Ebizo said: "Although this old bone of mine can't do anything, I can still give some advice."

"Hmph! You take a look!" Rasa threw the crumpled intelligence file to Ebizo.

Ebizo reached out and caught it.

He calmly opened the crumpled intelligence file.

Squinting his presbyopic eyes, he carefully looked at the text above.

Ebizo's pair of white eyebrows also began to wrinkle gradually.

The wrinkles on his face like tree rings wrinkled together.

"The Whitebeard Pirate Group kidnapped more than a dozen Genin from our Sunagakure Village, and they want us to pay 20 million for these Genin?"

Ebizo realized that this is indeed a very tricky problem.

Especially when it involves the Whitebeard Pirate Group.

Over the past year or so, the reputation of the Whitebeard Pirate Group in the ninja world is well known to all.

And they are basically all "infamous"!

Kazekage-sana..... The Whitebeard Pirate Group should not be underestimated. Ebizo coughed a few times, and he reminded seriously: "Especially the Whitebeard in the Whitebeard Pirate Group, he once destroyed the entire Kusagakure Village with his own power, and he also killed the Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure Village."

"So what?" Rasa's face was ashen, "Are we going to hand over 20 million ryo to a pirate group?"

He doesn't think he's inferior to Whitebeard.

Just destroying a Kusagakure Village! For a small ninja village like Kusagakure Village, he doesn't even need to take action as the Kazekage, he can casually send a Jonin from Sunagakure Village and a few Chunin, and they can "flatten" a mere Kusagakure Village.

As for the Fourth Mizukage of Kirigakure Village?

He is just an old ghost who never grows up!

Even if he is a perfect Jinchuriki, so what? When Rasa, was young, he also suppressed the tailed beasts all by himself.

You should know... every time the tailed beast of Sunagakure Village lost control, it was Rasa who suppressed it.

He believes that if he fights with the Fourth Mizukage...

He could also kill the Fourth Mizukage!

Also because of this kind of thinking.

Rasa feels that his strength is not much worse than Whitebeard's.

A draw is no problem.

"Kazekage-sama, if Sunagakure Village and the Whitebeard Pirate Group go to war, we will face more than just a Whitebeard Pirate Group." Ebizo was relatively calm, "By then, we will also have to face a Kusagakure Village and a Kirigakure Village without a kage."

"If the Whitebeard Pirate Group has a power comparable to a ninja village, plus the assistance of Kusagakure Village and Kirigakure Village. In this way, it's equivalent to three ninja villages besieging us."

"Kazekage-sama, we will be very passive." Ebizo continued, "The intelligence also says that Shisui of the Body Flicker from Konohagakure has joined the Whitebeard Pirate Group. The Uchiha clan of Konohagakure has a deep relationship with the Whitebeard Pirate Group."

"In case, Konohagakure also participates..." Ebizo's tone was serious, "That would be equivalent to four ninja villages, besieging our Sunagakure Village! And our village's Jinchuriki is too young, that child will have a hard time participating in a war."

"It could turn into a village annihilation disaster!"

Rasa: "....."

These words one after another made the angry Rasa a little calmer.

He pondered over what Ebizo said.

Rasa suddenly gritted his teeth.

Because Ebizo was right.

"The problem is." Rasa's face was both green and black, he was silent for more than ten seconds, and finally choked out this sentence: "There's not that much money."

The unique wind in the desert blew outside the window.

A gust of yellow sand flew by.

The office fell into a deathly silence.

"Kazekage-sama, we must pay to ransom those dozen or so Genin, otherwise, the trust in our people will be lost." Ebizo made a suggestion, "Or, Kazekage-sama, you will work harder again?"

Although Ebizo's words were not very clear, he just wanted Rasa to go deeper into the desert to search for a little more gold.

As long as Kazekage-sama suffers a little.

Sunagakure's days will be much better.

Rasa: "....."

.....

Land of Rain.

Amegakure Village.

All the forces belonging to Hanzo of the Salamander have been completely wiped out by the Akatsuki organization, anyone who leans towards Hanzo of the Salamander will be assassinated by the Akatsuki organization.

The entire Amegakure Village was brutally controlled by Pain.

In front of outsiders, "Pain" became the "God" of Amegakure Village.

Konan became the "Angel" of God.

Yes.

The legendary demi-god of the ninja world, Hanzo of the salamander, was killed by the Akatsuki organization a while ago.

In addition, Pain adheres to a policy of isolation, and outsiders have no idea what happened in Amegakure Village.

Many people don't know that Amegakure Village has changed hands.

When Konohagakure Village invited Amegakure Village to participate in the Chunin exam, they still thought that the legendary demi-god of the ninja world was still alive.

The telegrams and letters from Konohagakure to Amegakure Village all start with "Hanzo-sama".

Little did they know....

These telegrams and letters will all fall into Konan's hands.

And at this moment.

Another telegram from Konohagakure fell into Konan's hands.

But this telegram from Konohagakure was not sent by the people of Konohagakure Village, but by their people in Amegakure Village.

"Pain, look." Konan handed the translated telegram to Pain with a complex expression.

Pain, sitting in a wheelchair, took it with a puzzled look.

Pain took a close look.

"Hmm?"

He looked very surprised.

Konan shook her head helplessly: "I didn't expect that the Genin who were sent to participate in the Chunin exam would be captured, these days... even the 'Akatsuki' is being extorted."

Pain thought for a moment and said: "After all, they don't know that Amegakure Village has fallen into our hands, the Whitebeard Pirate Group thinks they are extorting Amegakure Village, not our Akatsuki organization."

He looked at Konan: "Should we pay this ransom? A ransom of 9 million ryo is not a small amount, right?"

Konan rationally said: "If we want to suppress the news of Amegakure Village changing hands, we have to pay this ransom. Because at this stage, we need to keep a low profile."

"Although 9 million ryo is not a small amount, the ninjas who are ransomed can perform mercenary assassination tasks for free, this money is considered a debt they owe us."

Nine Genin and a team leader Jonin.

If these ten rain ninjas risk their lives to perform tasks for free.

Presumably, it will only take one or two years.

To repay this debt.

"Then do as you think!" Pain said: "Half a month ago, didn't Kakuzu kill two A-rank renegade ninjas from Iwagakure Village? I remember he got a lot of bounties at that time, you can ask him for these 9 million ryo."

"Understood." Konan nodded, but as she was about to turn around and leave, she paused, turned back and looked at them: "There's a question, who will take the money there?"

She meant to take it to Konohagakure.

"Hmm... you go!" Pain thought for a moment: "Orochimaru is more than capable of causing trouble, I've been thinking about kicking him out of the Akatsuki organization, Uchiha Itachi who just joined is on a mission with Biwa Juzo, Sasori claims to be closed off to tinker with a puppet specifically to deal with Whitebeard, let's try not to disturb him recently, I don't know where Kakuzu has run off to, he might be chasing after some bounty criminal again."

"Uchiha Madara' has always been elusive, that newcomer called Tobi is very good, but his personality is too unstable, I'm worried he'll be tricked into leaking information. I don't trust some of the other new people outside the organization."

Pain paused, and continued: "At present, among the few idle hands in the organization, you are the most suitable one."

"Alright!" Konan had no objections.

Although she is a core member of the Akatsuki organization, she only needed to change into the uniform and forehead protector of Amegakure Village when she went to Konohagakure in the past.

The common attire of Amegakure Village is basically to hide one's face.

Moreover, there are not many people in the entire ninja world who know who she is.

Konan took on this task.

"Konan, be sure to be careful." Pain suddenly reminded, "If you accidentally run into Shimura Danzo in Konohagakure, you must suppress the hatred that wells up in your heart."

"Someday... we will make him feel pain!"

Konan paused again, as if the name of the blame king of Konohagakure stirred a bit of waves in her heart.

After all, the death of Yahiko was a scheme made by Shimura Danzo and Hanzo, these two old men of the ninja world.

Konan took a deep breath slowly to calm her emotions.

"I know, I will consider the overall situation."

Her figure gradually disappeared.

.....

Time, in the blink of an eye, a week passed.

Among the group of Genin from various villages who were captured by the Whitebeard Pirate Group, a group of Genin from Konohagakure Village has already been ransomed by Konohagakure.

It was Kakashi who came to ransom people with 64 million ryo.

There was no way, among the entire Konohagakure, Kakashi was one of the few ninjas who dared to approach the temporary base of the Whitebeard Pirate Group.

And in the village, some rumors about the Third Hokage were not "rumors shattered" because of the explicit prohibition.

On the contrary, it was Sarutobi Hiruzen's very tough means that made people feel that all conspiracy theories were real.

After all.

In the eyes of most people, if the conspiracy theories they discuss are not true, why would the Third Hokage be so anxious?

It must be because they accidentally guessed right!

This has led to the fact that various conspiracy theories have not been strangled.

Instead, they continue to circulate in secret.

And many people firmly believe in conspiracy theories.

Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to save his image through such an act, but he didn't expect that this act would make his image completely irreparable.

Recently, many people always have a strange thought when looking at the Third Hokage.

It's just that no one dares to say it out loud.

And on the side of the Whitebeard Pirate Group... Naruto, Sasuke, Hakuite, Izumi, these four have been working hard these days.

Because they are going to participate in the Chunin exam.

There is only one week left until the third round of the exam.

Hinata and Karin go to school as usual. Because only the first round of the Chunin exam uses the ninja school, now that the first round of the intermediate exam has long been over, the ninja school naturally continues to operate.

And during these days... Whitebeard has not been idle, he is training his children.

Kisame, Shisui, Fuushi, are Whitebeard's special training objects.

"Stupid daughter! The 'listening' of Observation Haki is not for you to listen with your ears! Karin's Observation Haki is about to awaken, as a mother, you can't lag behind your daughter!"

"Kisame! You too, both of you plug your ears!"

"Shisui, you are making rapid progress! Gurararararara!"

When training his childrens.

Whitebeard is a stern teacher.

Because Whitebeard is clear that to make his children stronger, he absolutely cannot be vague, nor can he train his childrens with half-assed method.

Indeed, Whitebeard is preparing to thoroughly popularize Observation Haki and Armament Haki throughout the entire Whitebeard Pirate Group.

He wants his group of sons and daughters to become stronger.

He wants all of them to be able to stand on their own!

Whitebeard first taught Observation Haki.

At this moment...

Hoshigaki Kisame, Uzumaki Fuushi, Uchiha Shisui, all three of them had their eyes covered, and their ears were also blocked by earplugs.

They couldn't see anything, they couldn't hear anything either.

Whitebeard, with a jug in his left hand, poured a few sips of wine into his mouth, and then grabbed a handful of broken stones with his other hand.

"Gurararararara!" Whitebeard grinned, "If your Observation Haki hasn't entered the threshold within a month, then your Haki awakening training volume will doubled!"

As soon as Whitebeard's words fell, he threw the handful of broken stones in his hand forward.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

A large number of broken stones broke through the air, disturbing the airflow in front.

The three people who had their vision and hearing closed off in the first place.

They couldn't feel the flow of air at all.

They could only entrust everything to their mysterious intuition.

Shisui was the most calm of the three.

He had already followed Pops for a period of time to learn Observation Haki, Shisui's Observation Haki was about to cross the threshold.

Even if he couldn't see anything, couldn't hear anything, couldn't feel anything.

But Shisui was still calmly dodging the broken stones.

As if there is a third eye was watching the attack of the these stones.

Fuushi and Kisame were the most miserable two.

Kisame was okay, his strength was very strong, and he could dodge a part of the stones just by relying on his intuition of danger. Plus, his physique was very special, Kisame was not seriously injured even if he was hit by broken stones.

Although Fuushi's Uzumaki clan physique is also very special, her speciality is shown in recovery power and chakra volume.

Not physical defense.

Bang bang bang... one stone after another hit Uzumaki Fuushi body.

She was already covered in scars, but her expression was somewhat stubbornly persistent.

.....

Meanwhile.

Konohagakure gate.

"Hehe, it's been a long time since I've been back!" A sinister voice came from a woman with blue-white skin.

Her pair of golden vertical pupils were particularly eye-catching: "Sarutobi sensei, the scene of you fighting me last time, allowing me to escape from Konohagakure, is still vivid in my mind! Hehe!"

In order to successfully bring Kimimaro back...

Orochimaru came in person.

Because at this stage, there are not many people in Otogakure who can be used. Just so happened that Orochimaru, in order to raise the ransom, ran to Land of Fire to complete a ninja task, and could conveniently come to Konohagakure Village.

Orochimaru just stood openly in front of the Konohagakure gate.

He didn't think he would be recognized.

Because this is a new body, a woman's body.

"These two things are really burdensome."

Orochimaru frowned and looked down, from his perspective, he couldn't see his toes.

For some reason, the image of Tsunade popped into Orochimaru's mind.

His own seemed to be smaller than Tsunade's, but.....

"A woman's body is really troublesome!"

He muttered coldly.
