Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 172 Giving You an Injection

As expected, Yubi's negotiations with the Daimyo broke down!

Finally, the daimyo even stated that he would completely cut off Sunagakure's funding needs—he would not give them a single penny from now on.

Yubi didn't give him a way out, stating bluntly that he would be happy to accept the outcome if the Daimyo's government stopped interfering in Sunagakure's affairs in the future.

Enraged, the Daimyo completely lost his composure and threatened Chiyo, saying that he would make Sunagakure elect a new Kazekage and would send a circular to other countries, saying that he did not recognize Yubi as the Fourth Kazekage.

Even if it means contradicting myself, I won't let Yubi have an easy time.

This is also why the Third Kazekage wanted to curry favor with the Daimyo.

The influence of a daimyo in the ninja world cannot be ignored.

For the common people at the bottom of the Land of Wind, what they respect and come into contact with are the policies and ideologies promoted by the Daimyo.

"As you see fit."

Yubi simply smiled and left with a single sentence before turning and departing.

Chiyo was left with a somber expression.

Stepping out of his residence, a murderous glint flashed in Yubi's eyes beneath his shadow hat.

He wouldn't allow a daimyo to point fingers and swagger around on his head.

He wanted to make the other party understand that the Sand Village, from top to bottom, was no longer the toy they used to manipulate.

Since the other party still hasn't realized this and shows no remorse.

Then he wouldn't mind using a little trick.

"Yubi".

Soon, Chiyo, who had followed closely behind, caught up with them.

"From now on, the profits from the pharmaceutical factory will no longer be given to the Daming Prefecture."

Yubi said indifferently.

"Grandma Chiyo—since you've chosen me to be the Kazekage, you must obey my management and arrangements. This is—"

Respect for me.

Yubi seemed to know what she wanted to say, and stopped in her tracks, looking directly into her eyes.

""

Chiyo, who had been about to speak, fell silent upon hearing this.

Immediately, he watched as Yubi disappeared into the night.

"Room!"

Several hours later, Yubi returned.

Outside the residence, a dozen or so guards protected the safety of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind throughout the night.

After disguising himself, Yubi used the power of the Op-Op Fruit to secretly deploy his domain and teleport directly into the room where the Daimyo was sleeping.

He was holding a syringe in his hand.

It contains an unknown liquid.

Yubi stared blankly at the sleeping man on the bed.

In an instant, with a whoosh, his arm became a blur.

The liquid was injected into the daimyo's body.

Then, the others vanished in an instant.

-

The entire operation was clean and efficient—they came and went without a trace, and no one noticed.

Yubi had already come up with a plan for dealing with the Daimyo of the Land of Wind.

First of all, as a daimyo of a country, he could not kill him directly—he could only "create some accidents" to make his death unrelated to Sunagakure.

But the daimyo's security forces are not weak—even assassinations carry the risk of error and exposure.

Even if he takes action personally—it won't be that simple.

Moreover, it would be troublesome if people found out that the death of the daimyo was related to him, the Kazekage.

Especially during times of war, the killing of a country's daimyo by a ninja village's kage would undoubtedly trigger internal turmoil and increase instability.

Illusion control is also easily detected.

Including performing some craniotomy procedures—

Therefore, Yubi had already had an idea.

Don't forget, he's not just a medical ninja, he's also a doctor.

A doctor with medical skills and knowledge that are unimaginable to people in this world.

Even without using the power of ninjas, there are countless ways to make the Daimyo of the Land of Wind die naturally.

The simplest way is what he's doing now: causing the daimyo to fall ill and die.

However, once the current daimyo dies, someone else will undoubtedly take his place.

What kind of personality the next daimyo will have, and whether he will obediently cooperate with his will—these are all unknowns.

Therefore, all Yubi needs is to make this daimyo suffer from a serious illness that no one else can cure—and looking at the entire ninja world, only he himself can save him.

In this way, it's as if the daimyo's life is in his own hands.

Whether the other person lives or dies is entirely up to me.

At that time—

And so, Yubi completed the marking of the daimyo of the Land of Wind without anyone noticing.

The next morning, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind left Sunagakure ahead of schedule and headed back home.

"The fact that you're leaving in such a hurry clearly means you're going to teach Yubi a lesson."

Compared to Chiyo and Ebizo's worried expressions after hearing the rumors, Yubi seemed completely calm and unperturbed.

I didn't take it seriously.

In the morning, he and Chiyo and the others arrived at a secret room in the village.

There are secret agents specifically assigned to guard it.

Upon entering, they found that the five members of the Uchiha clan, including Himeki, and Hyuga Irie were imprisoned inside.

After observing for the past few days, and considering the previous example of the six people killing the Hidden Cloud Village, the higher-ups have confirmed the safety of these six people from Konoha.

Naturally, they were also amazed by the incredible results of Yubi's surgery.

"Are you planning to continue their bloodline in our village?"

Chiyo looked at Yubi.

"certainly."

Yubi nodded. "I was worried that the villagers might be resistant to this, but now it seems that given the level of trust and affection they have for me, they shouldn't object too much to my decision."

"Hahaha--"

As he spoke, Yubi laughed, a hint of smugness in his eyes.

Chiyo sighed.

Indeed—Yubi has a very strong popular base.

This also confirms the saying that those who are loved are fearless—if this were the third generation, it might cause some trouble.

These high-ranking officials certainly wouldn't object, since it would benefit the village.

It's a good thing.

But it's different for ordinary villagers.

"The village's combat strength is too weak—especially during this Shinobi World War, when we fought against the enemy, we realized this even more."

.

Yubi's words prompted the others to nod in agreement.

really--

Compared to the other four great ninja villages, the village's foundation was already weak. Although it now has a puppeteer force and a medical force, it is almost completely lacking in terms of clans and bloodline limits.

Leaving aside the lower-level combat forces, even among the current high-level leaders, there are very few leaders cultivated by secret techniques or bloodline families; they are mostly patriarchs of commoner families.

It's not that commoner forces are bad or can't produce talented people, but rather that having more bloodlines, regardless of the size of the family, will give the village more confidence to fight.

Furthermore, members of bloodline families can fill talent gaps—whether at the grassroots or high-level—at a faster pace than commoner families.

The more talented people there are, the less pressure Yubi will face as the Shadow.

"You are the Kazekage—since you have already made your decision, we naturally have nothing more to say."

Chiyo said, "My only concern is that introducing these two bloodlines into the village might provoke strong hostility from Konoha, including the Uchiha and Hyuga clans. We just received a report from the front lines that Iwagakure has withdrawn some troops from the border where we are fighting, which has relieved the pressure on Rasa's forces."

"But with the death of the Third Raikage, Kumogakure will inevitably retaliate against Sunagakure—and Kirigakure is also stirring up trouble. In the short term, things are alright, but if this situation persists, and Kumogakure launches a major offensive against us, coupled with Konoha's counterattack—"

With our current troop strength, I'm afraid—"

That's all I have to say; Chiyo's meaning is quite clear.

Given the current state of the ninja world, it would be best for Sunagakure to maintain a relatively stable and mutually restraining relationship with Konoha.

These individuals from the Uchiha and Hyuga clans will undoubtedly break the deadlock, and may even force Konoha to cripple Sunagakure at all costs, in addition to the ever-present threat of retaliation from Kumogakure.

At that time, the village's situation will likely be quite dire.

"Don't worry, it won't turn out that way."

Yubi smiled slightly.

"Um?"

Chiyo was somewhat surprised.

"Humans are selfish—never underestimate human nature; what they can gain for themselves, whether for us or them, will always be their top priority!"

Yubi's eyes flickered, and he said something lightly that the others couldn't quite understand.

But clearly, as the Kazekage, he already had a plan in mind.
