I founded the "Bragging Cult" in Naruto.

Chapter 759 The difficulty lies not in accepting bribes, but in settling accounts.

"The Sand Village ninja are mobilizing before the battle. Why don't you go? The heroes of the Sand Village will surely give them a lot of motivation, and Gaara can also take this opportunity to clear your name."

The final battlefield was chosen to be the Land of Hot Water, a decision agreed upon by the other four ninja villages and the Land of Iron, as it would not affect their territories.

Although it borders the Land of Lightning, it is separated by mountains, so the aftershocks of the battle hardly affect the inhabited areas of the Land of Lightning.

The only country that was significantly affected was the Land of Fire, because the terrain bordering the Land of Hot Springs is plains or low hills, making it difficult to define precisely.

However, the daimyo of the Land of Fire agreed, because it would allow him to have direct contact with the battlefield ruins and reap some benefits during the cleanup of the battlefield after the war.

Putting everything else aside, the fact that Tatsuma revealed that White Zetsu's body was the best transplant material was enough to tempt the Daimyo.

Although the daimyo himself doesn't need it now, what if his internal organs malfunction in the future? There are also many nobles who are missing limbs.

These people are living advertisements. Once their defects can be cured, the wealthy people of the five great nations will wave their money and ask the Land of Fire for help.

Tatsuma had also reached a preliminary agreement with the daimyo, which was considered a concession from the village. Therefore, after careful consideration, the daimyo still supported the selection of the battlefield.

As for the citizens of the Land of Hot Water, they were transferred by the Allied Shinobi Forces over the next few days, which can be considered part of their integration process.

The daimyo and nobles of the Land of Hot actually refused, but they couldn't bring themselves to say it. Without the national strength to match that of the Five Great Nations, they couldn't even bring themselves to refuse.

At this moment, at the assembly point of the Allied Shinobi Forces, Tatsuma did not appear. Instead, in the newly built rear command camp, he looked at Yekura and asked.

Yekura shook his head and said, "No need. A good or bad reputation won't change anything for me. On the contrary, it will make the village's ninjas question the higher-ups."

If Rasa were still in power, I wouldn't mind making his reputation even worse, but Gaara is a good kid, and once people question his father, they will inevitably question him as well.

As a young Kazekage, this would be a disadvantage for him; it's not worth it for a dead man like me.

Yekura knew that Gaara was willing to do this. As long as Tatsuma asked, Gaara would restore Yekura's title as a hero of Sunagakure, and would even be happy to do so.

However, this matter will not bring Gaara any benefit. In addition, the defamation of Yoru was done by Gaara's father. If Gaara turns against her, it might cause him some trouble.

Hearing Yekura say this, Tatsuma nodded, not making a decision on his own based on his own assumption that he thought someone was better.

At this moment, the mobilization outside was nearing its end. Standing by the window, Yekura said with emotion, "Gaara is already an excellent Kage. After this battle, he will be able to completely control Sunagakure."

If Sunagakure could unite, it wouldn't be as constrained by the Daimyo's government as it was during the Third Hokage's time.

Hearing the cheers outside, Tatsuma smiled and said, "You still underestimate that child. He may seem gentle now, but he was once a demon in Sunagakure."

Moreover, he had already resolved the so-called obstacles.

"Yeah?"

Yekura asked in surprise, after all, the affairs of the Daimyo government had started from the time of the second generation, and the third generation was completely helpless. When she and Rasa were fighting, neither of them was able to win over the Daimyo government.

Gaara actually managed to take care of him? Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Tatsuma values ​​this child so much.

A golden flash appeared in the command room. The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, looked at Tatsuma and said, "The Second Hokage and I have found the enemy's trail, which matches the information you provided."

Tens of thousands of White Zetsu are currently heading this way from the Mountain Graveyard, and the Second Hokage has spotted some familiar figures.

"The people even the Second Hokage feels familiar with...aren't they those old fogies who should be lost in the past?"

Tatsuma asked with a smile, and Minato nodded. Tatsuma continued, "Go and inform them. Once the mobilization is almost complete, it's time to set off."

"it is good."

Minato vanished in a flash of golden light, and Yekura asked, "Should we set off now?"

"No rush."

Tatsuma stood up, walked to the side opposite the Allied Shinobi Forces, and said, "Where is what I asked for?"

In the woods, papers fluttered and transformed into a figure. Konan floated in mid-air, looking at Tatsuma, and said, "That lake... is it."

Are you sure you don't want to join the war?

"I have more worthwhile things to accomplish."

Konan shook her head in refusal, but Tatsuma nodded and said, "Are they the commoners?"

Although the civilians around the battlefield have been evacuated, only the noble class can be protected. This is unavoidable, as the Allied Shinobi Forces need to concentrate their forces as much as possible and cannot disperse too many forces.

Xiao Nan nodded, and her figure transformed into a piece of paper, slowly drifting down.

After Konan left, Tatsuma looked at the distant lake, formed hand seals, and activated the Shikigami Technique. The lake instantly disappeared, turning into a sea of ​​paper, revealing the explosive tags piled up all over the lake.

"With so many explosive tags, even a major power could be easily destroyed, right?"

Yekura, who had come to Tatsuma's side, sighed. Tatsuma nodded, and his chakra flowed out like a tidal wave, covering the explosive tags.

Then, with a flick of his wrists, a series of explosive tags flew up, crossing the command camp and heading towards the assembled Allied Ninja Army.

The appearance of so many explosive tags caused some commotion within the Allied Shinobi Forces. Upon seeing this, Gaara quickly said, "This is the war supplies support promised by the Fourth Hokage, Sakamoto Tatsuma. Don't be afraid, everyone."

As he spoke, he reached out and a stack of explosive tags landed in his hand. Seeing this, the Allied Ninjas followed suit and reached out to catch them.

"This is the first time I've ever seen so many explosive tags. Hundreds of tags were distributed among 100,000 people, and only a tiny fraction of them have been used up."

Ye Cang exclaimed in astonishment that the explosive tags that flew out were enough to fight a large-scale battle, but compared to the explosive tags provided by Xiao Nan, they were only a negligible part.

"These explosive tags are all powerful tools used to reimburse the Daimyo. In Konoha's accounts, these are all purchased by Konoha."

Tatsuma said with a smile, "Although the chances are very small, it's not impossible for the daimyo to check the accounts. These explosive tags are used to fill the deficit, and they're not just simple war supplies."

This is also a major reason why he asked Xiao Nan for these explosive tags. After all, how many explosive tags can be consumed in a battle? The remaining ones are the key.

He formed hand seals again, and the explosive talisman transformed back into the lake surface, with Chenma adding several more layers of seals on top.

"It's time to leave."

"Um."

Yekura nodded, and Tatsuma gently combed his curly hair with his ten fingers, then picked up a half headband with the character "忍" (nin, meaning to endure) written on it and put it on.

"You finally look like a ninja now."

"After all, war is fought for show, so the outward appearances have to be perfect."

After adjusting his headband, Tatsuma reached out to Yekura, who naturally took his hand. In the blink of an eye, a sage's face appeared around Tatsuma's eyes, and the two of them floated into the air, flying directly out of the window.

Turning back to look at Shikaku and the others who were entering the command room, Tatsuma said, "Shikaku, don't die."

"Tch! I don't even go to the battlefield, how could I possibly die?"

Shikaku waved his hand dismissively and said, "Don't get in my way."

"I'll find you for a drink after the war."

"You can only handle one cup, go find someone else to drink it with."
