I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

Compared to a behemoth like Konoha, only the star and the matching secret technique, Peacock Technique, could possibly pique the interest of Hoshigakure.

"Yes."

"However, I do not represent Konoha, but the Uchiha."

Huang reiterated the crux of the problem.

At the same time, Zi Xing noticed that the other party was not wearing the headband that symbolized Konoha ninjas.

At first, he thought the other person had covered up their headband to prevent others from recognizing their identity, but now it seems there is a bigger secret involved.

Of course, the old man wearing the purple star-patterned hat was also tactful enough not to say anything more about it.

"The stars are important to our ninja village not only as tools for training, but also as symbols of our spirit!"

"You must have heard about it before you came, or learned about it from Xia Ri."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have stopped her from taking the stars away in the first place."

Zi Xing said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Although the boy in front of him had an extremely dangerous reputation and came from the once powerful Uchiha clan, he was, after all, a 'Kage' of a ninja village!

This is already a polite way of refusing.

Moreover, in a sense, the stars are a treasure given to Hoshigakure by the heavens, a precious legacy left by the first Hokage. As the leader of this village, he would not, for any reason, use such a thing as a condition for a transaction.

However, Huang seemed oblivious to this clear rejection and instead repeated the reasons he had laid out in front of Xia Ri.

"As far as I know, your village has suspended its cultivation methods that rely on the power of stars."

"Moreover, it seems there are significant disagreements within your organization regarding this matter."

He didn't finish his sentence, only touching on the main points.

Because although the other party looks old, he is not senile.

At least in dealing with the stars, and in choosing between the development of the village and the lives of future generations, they made the right choices.

"hehe."

"Indeed, heroes emerge from among the young."

Upon hearing this response, Zi Xing chuckled knowingly, her tone of praise somewhat strange.

After all, it's bound to be unpleasant to have internal information about one's own village leaked like that.

"I never expected that our little Star Hidden Village would attract so much attention."

"Young friend, your methods are quite ruthless."

As he spoke, the centenarian glanced subtly at the woman beside the young man, and his attitude became distant again.

He clearly believed that the clansman he had driven from the village and given the identity of a rogue ninja had, after waiting for five years, finally chosen true betrayal.

Seeing this, Xia Ri's expression changed slightly. She understood what Lord Xingying was thinking, but she did not speak up to defend herself.

Even before this, he had not leaked any information about the village, nor had he had any contact with foreign powers.

However, by choosing to cooperate with the boy and bringing him into the village, she had already committed an act of betrayal against the village.

Even if the reason I did this was to completely eliminate any potential problems that the stars might cause in the future.

"Hmm, I think you've got another thing wrong."

“Xia Ri was captured by my men just yesterday. We had no contact before that.”

Huang responded calmly.

These aging leaders have ultimately lost the patience and composure they had in their prime.

This unnecessary answer caused the woman beside him to tremble slightly in the eye and straighten her back a little.

"Thank you."

Summer opened her mouth, and finally these two words popped out from between her lips.

Even if we really investigate, the misunderstanding she was in stemmed from the other party.

These words not only left the former genius of Hoshigakure bewildered, but even the Third Hoshikage, who stood opposite them, stiffened slightly.

Perhaps I really have misunderstood.

But it seems inappropriate to say anything now.

So, after clearing his throat, he returned to the origin of the problem.

What kind of deal are you referring to?

"I want to hear it first."

If Xia Ri, without betraying the village, had to some extent accepted this outsider and brought him before her, then it is very likely that the deal the other party wanted to discuss was not entirely for personal gain, but also had some benefits for Xingyin Village.

"Give me a star, and in exchange, I can help you heal your people who are suffering from the negative effects of the star. Of course, this effect will only be available once."

The story is straightforward, without any preamble or hype.

These words successfully caused Zi Xing's aged eyes to gradually widen.

What are the negative effects of the healing stars?

This news was incredibly shocking for him, as a Star Shadow!

It should be noted that more than two hundred years have passed since the First Hokage founded Hoshigakure and created the secret technique, Peacock Technique!

Even during such a long period of time, their medical ninjas and their predecessors were unable to find a way to stop the star's backlash!

The only way is to stop practicing.

But even if it stops, it cannot undo the damage the stars have caused to the body!

To put it more directly, if Elder Akahoshi knew that the village ninjas, after training with the power of the stars, would have another chance to reset their bodies and restore their life force.

Then, the very next day—no, immediately—he could incite all the ninjas in the village to force him to reopen the Star Training Grounds!

Because the entire Hidden Star Village harbors an ambition that rivals that of the Five Great Ninja Villages!

Of course, a boy with such special abilities shouldn't even think about leaving Hoshigakure (Hidden Star Village).

At the same time, Zi Xing also turned her attention to Xia Ri.

Although he didn't speak up because of the previous misunderstanding, the latter easily understood Lord Xingying's thoughts.

"Yes, that's right."

“Uchiha Ara possesses such power.”

Xia Ri said in a deep voice, and as he raised his hand, the pure and solid purple chakra appeared, without any of the mottled or weak feeling caused by the negative effects of the stars.

Furthermore, in terms of pure chakra purity alone, even Konoha's elite Jonin, Sarutobi Asuma, cannot match it.

The secret techniques of the Hidden Star Village are indeed unique.

"I need to think about it some more."

After a long silence, the old man in sight slowly spoke.

Not only because the news was so shocking, but also because he had to weigh the pros and cons.

indeed.

This generation of young people has suffered from the pain brought by the stars to varying degrees, and many have even died as a result. However, the practice of using stars for cultivation has been banned, and such things will no longer happen.

To put it bluntly, those who are sacrificing now are this generation; and a portion of this generation has already passed away.

Trying to salvage the situation now seems like a case of locking the barn door after the horse has bolted.

Learning to be ruthless and selectively abandoning power is a compulsory course for every person in power.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have driven away the village's geniuses and labeled them as rogue ninjas five years ago.

But stars are different!

It is the symbol of the entire Hidden Star Village, the pride in the hearts of every Hidden Star ninja, and represents that they are chosen by God!

It also reflects the unwavering belief and conviction that Hoshigakure will one day join the ranks of the Five Great Ninja Villages!

Giving it away so easily is unacceptable to every ninja of Hoshigakure; it's like extinguishing the faith and hope of Hoshigakure.

Compared to the sacrifice of a generation, the future and hope of the entire ninja village are clearly more important.

Huang naturally noticed the other party's hesitation, so he continued to remind him:

"Does everyone in Hoshigakure share the same will as you?"

"Can you guarantee that the training ground where the stars are worshipped will be permanently sealed off?"

Such a question instantly made Zi Xing look up, and the almost settled decision in her eyes stirred up waves again.

Yes.

He can guarantee that his will will remain unchanged and that the ban will not be altered.

But what about the future?

Chixing has never given up on the idea of ​​reopening the training ground, and even argued with me about it just now!

He didn't know how long such a ban could last.

unless.

Unless you can keep the boy in front of you forever!

Then, they wouldn't be caught in this dilemma, and Hoshigakure would win a new future!

The sudden surge of greed made even Zi Xing tremble.

but!

For the village, this is truly the best possible outcome!

You must know that this is the Hidden Star Village, our main base!

The entire place was filled with ninjas from Hoshigakure.

While it is indeed remarkable that the other party was able to enter so quietly, if they were truly fearless and capable of fighting against a ninja village, why would they go to such lengths to offer a deal to me?

After all, this is a cruel world where the strong prey on the weak!
