April 26, Year 60 of the Konoha Calendar, morning, the Country of Waves.
Cardo is dead, and there is no proof. Yamazaki let him live. Even if he goes to the Land of Fire, it will be useless. Without Cardo himself, without him telling everything under the torture ninjutsu, no one can stop him.
Move his background.
From this point of view, if Taochi does not kill Cardo, it will be a disservice. ...
A piece of new soil rose up on the mountain by the sea, and buried there were Momochi Zabuza, Haku, and the chakra warriors and warriors of the Fire Country.
The beheading sword was used as a tombstone for Zabuza Momochi, but Meidai was too embarrassed to play with it anymore.
Hatake Kakashi was supported by Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, not because of injury, but because of loss of strength. After the battle, he was relaxed and felt weak all over, even his head was dizzy, and his physical and mental strength were greatly damaged...
…
Hatake Kakashi and his party went back to Tatsuna's house to rest, while Yamazaki and Meidaiko returned to the daimyo's mansion and met the minister's father, the supervisor's family, the tax family's father, and the trader's family.
"I have met His Highness."
"Everyone is exempt from the gift."
The four of them paid homage to Mei Daizi and Yamazaki, invited Mei Daizi and Yamazaki to take the seats of honor, and then told their stories and asked Mei Daizi and Yamazaki to testify that the supervisor had committed suicide and apologized.
"Is it because you are sending protons? Rather than that, you might as well stay useful and deal with the people sent by the Fire Nation." Yamazaki persuaded, "Of the four here, you are the only one who has personally met the Fire Nation daimyo.
This is capital that the other three do not have."
Yamazaki's words, coupled with the persuasion of the other three people, made the supervisor burst into tears and promised not to commit suicide again.
"By the way, there is something." Yamazaki asked about the pollution, but the four of them knew about it, and the Daimyo of Wave Country also knew about it.
But they know that they have no way to solve it, so the four elders are not too unwilling to accept the surrender of the Kingdom of Waves to the Kingdom of Fire. Only the Kingdom of Fire can save the Kingdom of Waves and get the Kingdom of Waves out of trouble.
As for the status of the two countries, the Fire Nation must also follow the rules. If it goes too far, it will definitely become a laughing stock, and the famous people from all over the continent are watching.
Yamazaki had no intention of meeting people from the Fire Nation, so he said goodbye to the four elders.
The four elders made another request.
Since there was not much food left in the country of Waves and could not feed and drink thousands of people, the four elders begged Meidaizi to share some of the food captured on the Cardo ship with them.
Yamazaki understood that with the food, the four elders just cried to the people of the Land of Fire, saying that they had tried their best to prepare food, but the country of Waves was weak and only had so much food, which could prevent them from disturbing the people.
Yamazaki agreed and agreed to send half of the food on the ship to the Country of Waves. In this way, plus the food brought by the official fleet of the Country of Fire, it would be enough for the people of the Country of Fire to support the supply fleet of the Country of Fire in the Country of Waves.
arrival.……
In the afternoon, the official of the Country of Waves posted a notice in every township and village, issued by four elders of the Country of Waves, announcing that the Country of Waves had sent the grandson of the Daimyo to the Country of Fire as a hostage, and the Country of Waves officially became the Country of Fire.
Affiliated to the country, it has been protected by the Fire Nation ever since.
The notice said that the supplies sent by the Fire Nation to the Wave Nation would arrive soon, and he hoped that the citizens would wait and maintain enough respect for the people coming from the Fire Nation.…
At the same time, the four elders of the Land of Waves personally went to the border between the Land of Waves and the Land of Fire, to the seaside under Wangbo Mountain, to pick up the people from the Land of Fire.
There were not only the official retired troops from the Country of Fire, but also Cardo's subordinates. Although the number was large, their morale was low and there was a lack of management.
Except for a mediocre main camp, most of the others were scattered in the forest and lighting fires at will, not afraid that a forest fire would burn them all.
The four elders did not bring many people here, but they were prepared to escape one by one as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
They were led by an adjutant, whose position should have been appointed by Cardo after Cardo took over as regent of the Country of Waves with a document bearing the seals of both countries.
Now that Cardo is dead and the documents were ruined by bloodstains, he now has no position.
However, this is convenient for the four elders to communicate with him.
After putting all the blame on Momochi Zabuza, and with the kind invitation of the four elders, these defeated generals entered the Country of Waves holding high the flag of the Country of Fire...
On the other side, Huo Dingxiang and Nari interrogated those who were locked up. These were not ninjas. Even if they were chakra warriors, the chakra was not enough to compete with Huo Dingxiang, an elite jonin, so under the illusion, they were all honest.
He talked about the underground forces of Cardo.
As a result, we found out that Cardo colluded with local snakes in many places in the coastal areas and did some illegal things. However, it is of little use to provide evidence for this.
What is useful are the underground industries, hotels, warehouses, etc. that are used as cover. It is estimated that it is not less than one billion Fire Nation taels. It is a huge profit. The hard work is not in vain.
But in this case, these people cannot be let go. Illusion is not torture, and what they say may not be comprehensive. How can they accept those properties?
The only way is to take them with you...
The next day, April 27th.
Yamazaki and Meidai left a message at the Daimyo residence, then went to Tazuna's house to agree on a time with Hatake Kakashi before leaving, leading the fleet to leave the country of Waves...
Cardo did not do anything illegal in the five major countries. At most, he dealt with local snakes at sea. The main goods were minerals from the Kingdom of Sichuan and Yuno, sea salt from the Kingdom of the Sea and the Kingdom of Tea, and the population of the coastal countries.*
*****The land of rivers.
According to oral confessions, the Cardo underground forces are mainly engaged in mining in the Kingdom of Sichuan, and control some coal mines, some iron mines, and a copper mine, which is actually a gold mine.
Cardo corrupted a lot of people, tampered with a gold mine with a rich yield into a copper mine with a low yield, and then made a fuss about the surface of the gold, turning the gold into iron and copper and shipping it out.
The capital of the Kingdom of Sichuan, Sichuan City, is located near the coast. Cardo's underground forces have a luxurious hotel specially designed to corrupt big figures.
There is also a hotel, three inns, a large warehouse, and a shipbuilding yard in Kawanoko outside the city.
It seems that these industries are not in the hands of one person, and everyone only has a cooperative relationship, but in fact they all belong to Cardo, and no one knows whether these are all.
These property rights certificates are stored in the two houses in Kawanoguni. Each copy requires the seal and password of two people, one is the boss of those properties, and the other is the contact person arranged by Cardo...
And in the country of tea.
The capital of the Kingdom of Tea, the City of Tea, has two ports, the north and the south. The North Port in the north is connected to the West Bay of March Bay and handles goods from the Kingdom of Wind, Sichuan, and Fire. The South Port in the south handles goods from the Country of Rice.
The country, the country of water, the country of sea, the country of thunder and other places have goods.
The Kado underground forces are engaged in forestry in the land of tea. They are actually hollowing out trees to store sea salt. They are also engaged in the population business and domesticating those people in the forest.
These people are either sent to factories or mines as workers, go to hotels and inns to engage in customary industries, or are sold to wealthy people as slaves. The better the quality, the more expensive the price.
This is also a business comparable to a gold mine, but it’s just not visible to the public.…
May, West Port of March Bay, Country of Fire.
Yamazaki and Meidaizi bought a regular crew of slaves from the Ryadaiya, and then asked Cardo's crew to take these people out to sea and teach them how to familiarize themselves with the ship.
Kado's crew behaved very honestly after promising to pay each of them travel expenses.
Yamazaki and Meidaizi rented a manor in the suburbs, and lived there with Huo Dingxiang and Nari to practice...
