Naruto the Genius

Chapter 268 Three Major Camps
After arranging Sasuke's affairs, Naruto had to deal with other things quickly. After Danzo was killed, the members of the Root immediately became unstable. Because of Danzo's previous behavior, not many people wanted to investigate the cause of his death. Jiraiya and others just found Danzo's body and brought him back to Konoha for burial.

Jiraiya returned to Konoha Village with the troops led by Danzo, and Gaara, Temari and Kankuro from the Kingdom of Wind returned with him. As allies, and with the good relationship between them and Konoha, they often came to Konoha. But this time, they brought a very important news: "The Tsuchikage, Raikage, and Mizukage have formed an alliance, with the Raikage as the leader."

In the Hokage's office, Gaara and others have informed Tsunade of the details. After receiving this news, Tsunade said, "Are they forming an alliance to fight against Akatsuki? Or is it to deal with us, Konoha?" Gaara said, "Maybe both. After the Hokage left, the Tsuchikage recommended the Raikage as the leader, while Mifune and I insisted that the Hokage should be the leader, but we didn't reach an agreement in the end. So."

Tsunade was already very clear about what Gaara said. It should be normal for them to regard Konoha and Akatsuki as equally dangerous enemies. Tsunade said, "Kazekage, what are your plans?" Gaara said, "We were allies in the first place. Afterwards, I discussed it with Mifune and they are willing to join. We plan to let the Hokage become the leader and the core leader of our alliance."

Tsunade said: "Thank you for your trust, but we may face a lot of problems in the future, not just Akatsuki." Shikaku said: "If this is the case, it is very likely to become a three-way melee, and Akatsuki is likely to take the opportunity to collect the tailed beasts. We must hold a joint meeting to form a joint army."

Gaara said, "In this case, we must get the Daimyo's consent as soon as possible. Speaking of Daimyo, I got a message before coming to Konoha that the Daimyo of the Land of Fire had been killed, and Naruto became the new Daimyo of the Land of Fire." Tsunade shook her head and said, "It is almost certain that the killing of the Daimyo was done by Akatsuki, probably because they wanted to disintegrate the entire Land of Fire from within. However, their conspiracy has been shattered."

Gaara asked in confusion, "It has been crushed, so quickly? After the daimyo is killed, it takes some time for a new daimyo to take the throne. Moreover, even if the new daimyo takes the throne, he may not be popular with the people. Often after that, it takes a long time for the country to be truly stable." Tsunade said, "Because of Naruto's contribution to the Land of Fire and his help to the people of the Land of Fire, Naruto's popularity has surpassed that of the previous daimyo. Other forces that wanted to oppose him have also slowly changed their attitudes."

Although Tsunade said it easily, Gaara and others knew the difficulty. As a ninja, many people may not know you. Even if you are an outstanding ninja, you are often only recognized by the ninja village, and it is almost impossible to be recognized by a large number of people. Gaara said: "Naruto, I don't know when he accomplished such an amazing thing. I thought that after becoming the Kazekage, I was ahead of him temporarily, but I didn't expect that I was still behind."

Temari said, "It seems that next time we meet, we will have to call him daimyo." Kankuro said, "Calling Naruto the daimyo? I'm really not used to it." Tsunade said, "Not only you, but even I, the Hokage, have to call him that." Gaara said, "In that case, I'm relieved. If the Fire Country has such a daimyo, it should be more powerful." After saying that, everyone looked at each other and nodded, and Gaara and the other three said goodbye to Tsunade and rushed to Konoha.

But they don't know that Naruto did a lot of things in addition to the initial preparations for becoming the daimyo. For example, he also helped the famous families in the Land of Fire. Because the Land of Fire has always had a relatively stable political situation and strong national strength, not only did the citizens of the Land of Fire live a relatively wealthy life, but also many famous families in the Land of Fire. These big families not only have strong economic strength, but some even employ ninjas for a long time.

Even in the world of Naruto, money plays a very important role. Even the Akatsuki organization will accept dangerous missions for money, and there are members like Kakuzu who specialize in managing money. There are several of these big families in the Land of Fire, and they use a lot of money to gather a large number of talents, including some outstanding ninjas. When Naruto was just elected as the daimyo, there were actually ninjas willing to take huge risks to assassinate Naruto. Naruto even got news that someone actually took money to hire Akatsuki to assassinate Naruto.

Unfortunately, although their ideas were good, Naruto's strength was beyond the imagination of these people. The people sent over all had the same result, and Naruto also used the Sharingan to get a lot of information from these assassins. For this reason, Naruto sent people on a special trip, or went there in person, to "visit" these big families. In the end, without exception, they all chose to "support" Naruto, and a large part of this really had to thank Naruto's Sharingan.

In this way, everyone supported Naruto, and the ministers had nothing to object to. However, these ministers were not very loyal to Naruto, and some of them were unwilling to obey Naruto. The reason why they pretended to recognize Naruto's name was just to follow the situation. After all, at this time, even if they opposed it, it would be useless, and it might even cause some adverse effects to themselves. Naruto discovered this situation with just a little observation. In particular, several ministers seemed to be a little disdainful of Naruto.

But they didn't know that lying was useless in front of Naruto. If Naruto wanted to, he could even know what they were thinking. Before this, the position of Daimyo had never been held by a ninja, so even if these ministers were playing tricks, the Daimyo wouldn't know. Some of them were even complete treacherous ministers, but they hid themselves so deeply that the Daimyo couldn't find out.

Naruto had only been in office for a few days when these people were exposed one by one. But Naruto did not use the same method on all of them, which would probably cause panic among the people. Naruto only took action against a few of them who were prominent and likely to cause a big impact. Later, these ministers saw Naruto's methods, and all the ministers dared not have any second thoughts.
