"Ai, do you know what is most important to us in the Kingdom of Thunder?"
A rich voice sounded, and the dark and determined face was inlaid with a pair of deep and sharp eyes. The look in the eyes was called solemnity.
Under the gaze of these eyes, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly became very depressing. No matter how tough and steady the Third Raikage was, he could not help but feel his scalp was numb, and he faintly dared not raise his eyes to meet them.
Wearing a simple white robe, His Majesty the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder, a strong man who has just passed fifty years old, actually came to Yunyin Village in person today. At this moment, he was sitting on the sofa in front of the Raikage's desk, chatting with the Third Raikage.
An exchange known as heart-to-heart talk is actually a showdown.
After the daimyo asked the question, he remained silent and just stared at the Third Raikage. The strong man like an iron tower asked tentatively after a long silence:
"Territory? Resources?"
Unexpectedly, these two words seemed to instantly arouse the anger of the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder. He clenched his teeth and made a faint clicking sound, and wisps of cold light bloomed in his eyes:
"Yeyue Ai."
He softly called out the name of the Third Raikage. It was an extremely rare full name that had never appeared in meetings in the past few years. This made Yeyue Ai's heart sink and she secretly felt bad.
I thought I could fool him...
"You are also from the Kingdom of Thunder. The traditional concepts of Kumogakure and the thinking of the Kumogakure ninjas are in line with the social system of our Kingdom of Thunder."
"I ask you……"
After a pause, his tone was slightly elongated, and the daimyo's speaking speed continued to slow down, which put more and more pressure on Ye Yue Ai's body, as if even his steel-like body could not bear it.
"Is there something..."
“What can be more important than unity?”
When he said the last word, the volume suddenly increased, hitting Yeyue Ai on the chest like a big hammer, making him completely soft. He finally raised his head reluctantly, looked at the daimyo, and asked directly without answering anything.
road:
"Is it true that we can't continue our alliance with Konoha?"
"Yes."
After speaking out two words decisively, the daimyo paused and explained with a solemn expression:
"You also know the situation in the Country of Fire. The so-called electoral system, so-called freedom and democracy are like addictive poisons that will drive the people crazy and plunge the country into chaos."
"The united Kingdom of Thunder doesn't need that kind of thing, and this world doesn't need that kind of thing either."
"Even if there is a slight sign, we must stamp it out as soon as possible."
"If you think that my reputation as a famous person is acceptable, that the social environment of the Kingdom of Thunder is not bad, and that the people of the Kingdom of Thunder live a relatively happy life..."
"Then you should decisively form an alliance with Iwagakure, Sandgakure and Kirigakure, and do your best to eliminate Konoha and Lei Luo. Or, without leaving any room, completely eradicate that hateful thought that will destroy unity."
The tone without any fluctuation seemed to be devoid of any emotion. The name of the Land of Thunder seemed to be stating something, but the cold light flashing in his eyes made even Ye Yueyai, the thunder shadow, secretly feel frightened.
Even though there is no trace of chakra fluctuations in his body, he is essentially an ordinary person. The daimyo-dono, who can kill even the weakest genin with a kunai, now displays an aura that makes even the shadows look at him.
The Kingdom of Thunder has always advocated unity. The mainstream values of this country can be summarized as follows: individuals obey the collective, and the collective obeys the leader. This is true for all citizens and ninjas.
As for the name of the Kingdom of Thunder, this iron-blooded politician who has spared no effort to support the ruler of the Kingdom of Thunder since the Third Raikage came to power and led the Kingdom of Thunder to continue to grow and develop. Naturally, he is the true representative of the Kingdom of Thunder.
spiritual leader.
The Raikage can only call on the Kumogakure ninjas to do things, but the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder can call on the entire country of the Kingdom of Thunder to move in one direction, which naturally includes the Raikage, all the Kumogakure ninjas and the millions of Thunder Kingdoms.
people.
Normally, the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder never asks Kumokakure to do anything specific, and rarely interferes with Kumokakure's decisions, because he believes that Raikage can handle the country's military issues well.
But this time, it was different.
Because this time, it is not just a military issue.
The changes that took place in the Country of Fire, the brand-new, unheard-of democratic system, made the Daimyo of the Country of Thunder smell the danger coming towards him. The first time he heard the news, he felt like a lump in his throat.
I couldn't sleep for several days and nights.
Although it is unclear how Lei Luo figured out this weird political framework, how he had the courage to delegate the power of appointing officials to the people, and how the Fire Nation operated according to this framework without any signs of chaos...
There were many questions that he couldn't understand, but his sophisticated political vision and deep grasp of people's hearts still allowed the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder to quickly understand something:
If we don't act quickly, the Kingdom of Fire will not be in chaos, but the Kingdom of Thunder is very likely to be in chaos first. The so-called capitalist system, ideas such as freedom and democracy, organizations such as the Congress and the Cabinet, these things and concepts will definitely have the ability to shake the Daimyo regime.
foundation, and even send the entire existing ruling class to their graves.
The Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder has the same thoughts on this matter as the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Earth, that is - a series of changes in the Kingdom of Fire, from systems to ideas to operational procedures, they must be nipped in the bud and eliminated.
No, let it poison the minds of the people of the Kingdom of Thunder.
The country of thunder also does not need any democracy.
Moreover, the so-called democratic countries, which are actually the cancer of the world, must be destroyed as soon as possible.
For this reason, it is completely normal to tear up Kumogakure Konoha's alliance treaty, and instead join forces with the Iwagakure Sunagakure Alliance to jointly declare war on Konoha and the Land of Fire.
The daimyo of the Land of Thunder also believed that the daimyo of the two countries, Futu, would not hesitate to order his subordinate Ninja Village and Kumogakure to settle their differences and form a ninja coalition to jointly conquer the Land of Fire.
After all, war is just an extension of politics.
In this Ninja World War, or the World War, the conflicts between the enemy and ourselves are no longer limited to narrow things like the majesty of the Ninja World, mission share, and material resources like the previous two times, but are related to the true determination of a country.
The life and death of a regime -
That thing is called ideology.
Even though the Daimyo of the Land of Thunder knew nothing about this part of the theory, and only had a superficial understanding of the people's thoughts and ideas, his long years of governing experience still allowed him to develop a keen intuition and a deep understanding of:
After the reform, the Fire Country has become the mortal enemy of all feudal countries. Both sides are either dead or alive, and there is no room for relaxation. No matter how good the relationship between Kumogakure and Konoha was in the past few years, it will be useless.
If Lei Luo just kills the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and takes the position of Daimyo himself, the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder may condemn Konoha, but he will never easily tear up Konoha Kumogakure's alliance treaty, let alone like now, with the
Enemies in the past have cooperated to attack allies.
However, since the Kingdom of Fire has actually undergone this kind of institutional change and has become a complete alien, spreading all kinds of vicious ideas, then...
If you don’t want the Kingdom of Thunder to fall into civil strife, riots, revolutions and disputes in the future, and ultimately be destroyed by the people of your own country...
It’s time for the Kingdom of Thunder to take action, and it’s time for Kumogakure to take action.
Let's start with the team of Konoha ninjas staying on Turtle Island...
The Daimyo of the Land of Thunder knew that he had no choice.
