"I don't think I need to say anything unnecessary. You two should also understand that there are many forces involved in this battle. We, Feng Province, cannot let our momentum weaken in front of our friendly forces."
In a dark conference room in the former Kazekage Building in Shinsa Hidden Village, Uzumaki Makoto crossed his legs, chewed on a cigar, and exhaled smoke as he spoke lightly.
On both sides of the conference table, Rasa and Kakuzu stood on both sides. The two looked at each other, and Kakuzu said gloomily: "Destroy Kirigakure with a small force, to be honest..."
"I always feel that there is no real sense."
Luo Sha interjected: "With the strength of Your Excellency the Prime Minister, one person must be able to wipe out Kirigakure Village, right? Our mission should be to prevent the remnants of Kirigakure from escaping everywhere."
Before the battle even started, Rasa had already used the term "Remnant of Kirigakure". After Kakuzu heard this, although he felt a little uncomfortable, he knew that what the other party said was generally correct.
As members of the Uzumaki Makoto Group who have been stationed in Feng Province all year round, both Rasa and Kakuzu know something about Lei Luo's high energy physics laboratory, and they also know the information about nuclear weapons.
In the far reaches of the desolate Gobi desert, the bright and scorching sun would erupt every once in a while, and the violent hurricanes that could spread to more than ten kilometers away, like tsunamis, deeply shocked everyone who witnessed it.
Nuclear explosion...
In the face of that kind of power that is close to God, no matter how much Luo Sha and the two imagine, they can't think of anyone in the world who can resist it. No matter how many Kirigakure there are, what's the point?
On the other side, Uzumaki Cheng noticed that Luo Sha was looking at him with a hint of inquiry, so he nodded slowly, took out the cigar from his mouth, and said leisurely:
"Our target is naturally not on the frontal battlefield. We can't get involved in Liudao, Bing, Lei Luo's battle, but that doesn't mean we don't have a chance to perform."
He flicked the ashes from his cigarette and continued:
"You also heard what Obito said just now. It is one thing to eliminate the surviving Kirigakure remnants, and the other is to plunder resources, just like what I did in Kumogakure Village."
Recalling the two-tailed disaster ten years ago, Luo Sha was thoughtful, while Kakuzu lowered his head in thought and asked with a slight curiosity: "Boss, doesn't the Prime Minister intend to directly activate nuclear weapons?"
If you want to plunder the resources of Kirigakure Village, according to the process, you must sneak into the enemy's interior, and the indiscriminate land-washing attack of nuclear weapons will conflict with this point.
"Should we lure the troublesome characters out and wait until we complete the mission before starting?" Uzumaki Cheng didn't know Lei Luo's plan, but based on his understanding of the latter, there was a high probability that this would be the plan.
"Anyway, if you two perform well this time, I can apply for some rare resources for you afterwards." These concluding words were full of hints, and Luo Shajiao nodded seriously.
Since the establishment of the Empire of Fire, although the various provinces and factions are harmonious on the surface, there are still internal struggles, either for funding or for policy preferences. For the senior officials, the main purpose is to obtain stronger power.
The authority to mobilize resources at all levels is in the hands of the central government. Ninjas of some status basically know that certain rare items can enhance their strength by getting them, which is extremely simple and crude.
Qualifications or merit are the prerequisites for obtaining them.
In peacetime, shadow-level masters do not have many opportunities to show off, and it is undoubtedly very difficult to obtain rare resources. This is evident from the fact that Kakuzu and Rasa have been following Uzumaki Makoto for so long, but their strength has not improved much.
However, now the opportunity has come.
Whether you use those rare resources yourself or leave them to your children, they are all very valuable, at least that's what Luo Sha thinks, and the senior officials of Yu Province also have the same idea.
"Xiao Nan, do you think the teacher will kick me out if I go there?"
In the spacious and bright bedroom, Yahiko was leaning on the bedside, looking at the woman in his arms, a trace of confusion flashed across his eyebrows, and his wife, Konan, replied calmly:
"Since you are not on the list, it means that the teacher is well aware of your strength. You should not join in the fun this time. Just stay in the office and do your government work."
Yahiko sighed softly. Although his wife said it more euphemistically, he also understood the meaning: it was just because he was not strong enough, and insisting on participating in the action would only hinder the team.
More than ten years have passed, and the young people back then are now gradually entering the middle-aged realm. In this process, compared to Konan, who is constantly improving in strength, Yahiko not only has not become stronger, but has become weaker.
The reason for this situation, Yahiko knows, is related to the nature of his job. After all, as a high-ranking official, he has been in charge of all levels of government departments in Rain Province for many years, and he has long lost the physical fitness and spirit that a ninja should have.
Not to mention fighting, even the number of times of training is very small.
Konan is different from Yahiko in this regard. She did not go deep into the work of the government department. Instead, she focused her energy on building Ninja Village. Now she is the new leader of Amegakure Village.
The shadow of a village cannot be too weak. Xiaonan has never stopped getting stronger over the years. Moreover, she also has a teacher who is invincible in the ninja world. The combination of various factors eventually leads to:
The current Yahiko is hardly an enemy of Konan Ichigo.
The same teacher, the same outstanding talent, the boys and girls who broke out of the slums back then have widened the gap between heaven and earth today, just because they chose different paths.
"Alas, I can only stand far behind and look at your back..." He looked at his wife steadily for a while. Yahiko felt sad and helpless. He simply shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This feeling is really disappointing.
.”
"Yahiko, your battlefield is not here." Xiaonan looked at her husband intently, her eyes extremely serious, and said softly: "What this land needs more than me is a leader like you."
"After all, ninjas and force are just temporary needs. Prosperity and stability are what the people of Rain Province want more. You have realized your dream back then, and you are much greater than me."
Yahiko didn't know how to respond to his wife's comfort, so he patted Xiaonan's smooth back, calmed down for a while, and whispered: "Fighting side by side with the teacher, there will be basically no danger."
"So Xiaonan, if you have the chance, don't forget to show off..."
Yahiko didn't finish his words, but Xiaonan clearly understood the subtext, nodded his head clearly, smiled slightly at the end, and said pointedly: "Do you still remember the red-haired boy that the teacher asked us to find?"
"Is it... the Uzumaki Nagato who was later confirmed?"
Seeing Yahiko's puzzled expression, Xiaonan tugged her hair casually, and the smile on her face became more obvious: "It is said that the reincarnation eye is a very powerful blood inheritance limit. It should be good to use it to lay the foundation for sasanqua.
"
Samaume is the daughter of Yahiko Xiaonan, she is ten years old this year.
Almost as soon as his wife finished speaking, Yahiko understood the deeper meaning and replied with a smile: "It's indeed good, but it depends on how much you, the mother, can do."
"I will prepare an eleventh birthday gift for Chamei." Xiaonan said easily, but her eyes were very firm. How far should it go? Just go to the extent...that I can make requests to the teacher with confidence.
