Naruto: The Tavern Speech Begins to Make the Land of Rain Great

"Ryosuke? That undercover agent sent by Hanzo?"

"That's right."

"He's back?"

Hayakawa Hitomi nodded.

"And then he discovered his house was gone?"

Hayakawa Hitomi recalled the other person's complex expression at that time, and her tension broke down again.

"right."

"However, he brought some information this time."

"Hmm? Is it related to the Two-Tails?"

Watanabe Tetsu remembered that he had previously given the other party a task to find the Two-Tailed Beast.

"It's true that it is, and it's not true that it isn't."

"What kind of talk is that?"

Hayakawa Hitomi twirled her fingers in the air a few times as she explained.

"Although he didn't find the exact location of the two tails, he did find huge cat paw prints in the bamboo forest."

"So, we can basically confirm the location of the Two-Tailed Beast."

"Yes."

"Furthermore, he also discovered that the Hidden Cloud Village seems to be making some kind of move recently. The village is under martial law, and a number of ninjas have been dispatched near a canyon."

"Canyon? It's more like the Eight-Tailed Fox."

Watanabe Tetsu remembered that the Eight-Tails seemed to live in a canyon.

"I feel the same way."

Watanabe Tetsu recalled what had happened in Konoha.

The Cloud Village delegation attempted to kidnap Kushina, a period that occurred a few years earlier than the original timeline.

It's probably caused by the Eight-Tails' frequent rampages.

The Hidden Cloud Village wanted to capture Kushina Uzumaki and make her the Eight-Tails' Jinchuriki.

However, the plan to kidnap Kushina failed, and Takai, who was in charge of the mission, was killed.

This made Kumogakure abandon the idea of ​​harming Kushina.

They could only find a suitable ninja from the village to seal the Eight-Tails inside him.

So, considering the recent actions of the Hidden Cloud Village...

"Kumakuya Village plans to seal the Eight-Tails and train an Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."

With certainty in his eyes, Watanabe Tetsu tapped the table with his index finger, making a crisp sound.

"Next, they might seal away the Two-Tails."

"We need to hurry."

Hayakawa Hitomi nodded; she shared the same thought.

I will keep that in mind.

Since the Hidden Cloud Village chose to seal the Eight-Tails, it's only a matter of time before the Two-Tails is sealed as well.

This date may be after the sealing of the Eight-Tails.

Therefore, if Watanabe Tetsu wants to seize the Two-Tails, he can only do so before Kumogakure reacts.

They could even act when the Eight-Tails is sealed in Kumogakure and security forces are concentrated on one side of the Eight-Tails.

He took the opportunity to kidnap the two-tailed cat.

The plan is basically finalized; the next step is to determine when to implement it.

He looked up at Hayakawa Hitomi.

"Do we have any informants in Kumogakure?"

"Yes, but very few; it's mainly through merchant channels."

Watanabe Toru nodded.

Merchants are a good intermediary, providing Xiaoguang Society with an intelligence network.

This is also related to the fact that Xiaoguanghui started by using businessmen. Xiaoguanghui has always been friendly to businessmen, which has led many businessmen to choose to be affiliated with Xiaoguanghui.

Who wouldn't want a leader in the Land of Rain who can protect them?

Businessmen need it even more.

"As long as the merchant channels are accurate, it's fine. We need to keep a close eye on the actions of the Hidden Cloud Village these next few days."

Thanks to Furukawa's research, Xiaoguang has already mastered some communication technologies.

Long-distance, short-duration communication is now also possible.

This can greatly shorten the information transmission cycle.

Watanabe Toru glanced at the time on his computer.

"It's almost time. I still need to go see Nishimura. Thank you for your help."

Hayakawa Hitomi glanced at Watanabe Tetsu, who had stood up, and chuckled.

"Find his daughter."

"Yes."

"How is she?"

"Very good, much better than you."

Hayakawa Hitomi knew that this was a reference to her ninjutsu skills.

"Tch, I don't need it."

Watanabe Tetsu looked at the man who had straightened his chest and pretended not to care, then turned his head toward Hayakawa Hitomi beside him.

She's sulking again.

He couldn't resist reaching out his finger and gently tapping her forehead.

"In some ways, you're just as good."

Then Watanabe Toru picked up the coat from the hanger and put it on.

"I'm gone."

"Ah, ah, oh!"

Hayakawa Hitomi waved slowly to Watanabe Tetsuya and said goodbye.

When Watanabe Tetsu walked out of the room, her fair fingertips reached out to touch his forehead, which still retained warmth.

The setting sun shone through the window, casting a rosy glow on her face.

She glanced at Watanabe Tetsu's CEO seat and plopped down in it.

The seats were still warm, which was quite cozy.

She stretched like a kitten, then expertly pulled out a list of people from the drawer.

She closed her eyes, as if savoring something.

"That bastard, he made me work overtime again!"

...

The leaders of Xiaoguang Society were all allocated decent houses in Xiaoguang City.

Positions like the head of the logistics department were even granted a detached villa.

But Watanabe Toru didn't come to the villa today; he came to a small apartment.

"Bang bang bang".

With a knock, the door of the house was slowly opened.

"Boss."

Upon seeing that it was Nishimura, Watanabe Toru nodded.

He then joked.

"Why aren't you staying in the villa? Why are you living in this small apartment?"

Nishimura smiled in agreement and immediately began to flatter him.

"If you don't live in a villa, how can we possibly live in one?"

The villas in Xiaoguang City are quite nice.

It has four floors and comes with its own enclosed swimming pool and back garden.

There are so many rooms inside that they can't possibly be used up.

There are six bedrooms alone.

It can accommodate ten or so people without any problem.

Watanabe Toru didn't live in the villa because he really didn't like it.

He really doesn't have much of a material need when it comes to housing.

Besides, we've only had a few days of good life, and we're already being so extravagant.

According to Watanabe Toru, dealing with this kind of life for a long time will corrupt one's heart with money.

With Hanzo's lesson still fresh in their minds, Watanabe Tetsuya dared not repeat the mistake.

Therefore, even though he is now wealthy, he still lives in his office.

To this end, Hayakawa Hitomi specially moved a double bed into a cubicle in Watanabe Tetsu's office to ensure that he could sleep comfortably.

Nishimura, being a shrewd person, also learned from Watanabe Toru.

He bought an apartment with his own money, and he and his daughter usually live in the apartment.

The original villa was rented at a low price to his logistics department staff for hosting parties.

...

Upon hearing the familiar voice, a figure emerged from the small house.

Mio Nishimura poked her head out and glanced at the figure at the door.

Oh my god, Principal!

She then quickly took a step outside and stood up straight.

salute!

"Hello, Principal!"

She recalled her conversation with Watanabe Tetsu earlier that day, and remembered the words he had said.

We'll see each other soon.

Wow, that was fast!

She glanced at the principal, who was chatting happily with her father, and shrank back.

I hope he won't tell his father about what happened at school.

Otherwise, she would inevitably be nagged for a whole day and night.

It was mainly because of that one "idiot" she yelled at at school!

If her dad finds out, she'll get a good scolding!

Just as Mio's brain went blank, a voice from the doorway reached her ears.

"Mio, it's nice to see you again."
