Naruto: Evil is easy to commit, making Amegakure great again.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Kakuzu paused slightly as he was calculating with the abacus, seemingly noticing something amiss with the Sunagakure village's financial statement.

His face instantly turned cold.

"There's a problem with this quarter's fiscal spending!"

The general handed the financial statements in front of him to Jiang Ming, who was standing to the side.

He pointed to a number on the table and said calmly, "This account doesn't match. Someone is secretly embezzling public funds for personal gain."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ming put down the secret scroll in his hand.

He stood up thoughtfully and stretched his somewhat stiff body.

There's nothing new under the sun; everything is exactly as expected.

Embezzlement, bribery, abuse of power for personal gain, and lining one's own pockets...

Jiang Ming was already used to these sordid dealings, whether in his past life or this one.

In chaotic times, greed is the norm.

Even in the impoverished, backward, and ravaged Land of Rain, there are still people who dare to reach into military funds and gnaw at the last foundation of this country.

If even small countries are like this, then what about a major ninja nation with abundant resources and an incredibly developed economy...?

"call......"

Jiang Ming exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly walked to the window of Feng Ying's office.

Looking out the window at the Sand Village, where yellow sand raged, the landscape was devastated, and the sounds of wailing and screams filled the air, his tone was so calm it was almost indifferent.

"Previously, this village was governed by the Kazekage... therefore, we had no right to interfere in the village's financial expenditures!"

But now, the entire Sand Village has been completely conquered by Jiang Ming and forced to become territory of the Land of Rain.

Under these circumstances, fiscal spending this quarter has run into problems...

It felt just like when he first graduated and started working, eagerly anticipating receiving his first paycheck.

However, when payday came, the boss found all sorts of excuses to cut back on his salary.

In the end, what I received was less than a third of my normal salary for the month.

It's both frustrating and infuriating...

"Since they've touched something they shouldn't have, then these high-ranking members of Sunagakure should take responsibility and do everything they can to fill this hole."

"We need to make up for all the losses we suffered this quarter."

Who took the money, and where did it ultimately go...?

Jiang Ming didn't care about any of these things.

He only cared about one thing—the entire Sunagakure leadership had to find a way to fill this "financial hole," or else... they would pay with their lives!

"What are you planning to do?"

Upon hearing that Jiang Ming planned to take action against the high-ranking members of Sunagakure, Nagato immediately became interested.

Without the slightest hesitation, she put down her work and rushed to Jiang Ming's side as quickly as possible.

They asked him how he should deal with the high-ranking officials of Sunagakure.

Do we need his help?

"First, have them line up in front of the main entrance to the Wind Shadow's office, then call them in one by one for questioning."

"I see..."

Nagato nodded slightly, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

In his view, any one of the high-ranking officials of the five great nations of the ninja world had done countless evil deeds.

There is absolutely no truth to the claim of "innocence".

"Leave it to me."

Nagato was well aware that she did not have the talent for handling documents or managing government affairs.

This was evident to some extent when he founded the Akatsuki organization with Yahiko and Konan.

Yahiko is the spiritual leader and external representative of the Akatsuki organization, while Konan is responsible for the Akatsuki organization's intelligence, logistics, and internal coordination.

Handle the daily affairs of the Akatsuki organization and contact Akatsuki members scattered throughout the Land of Rain.

Compared to these two, Nagato, who was responsible for the strategic execution of the Akatsuki organization and served as its "military deterrent," seemed somewhat out of place...

He is only good at things related to combat.

Letting him handle the political affairs of the Akatsuki organization is almost like letting Might Guy serve as an Anbu ninja in Konoha.

That's absolutely unrealistic.

"The Art of Amplification—!"

Soon, Nagato formed the four seals [卯-巳-寅-未] with both hands.

He activated the chakra within his body and unleashed a wide-range sonic ninjutsu called "Amplifier Technique".

The message was relayed to all the high-ranking officials in Sunagakure—to come to the Kazekage's office as soon as possible to report.

This prompted many high-ranking officials of Sunagakure Village, who were restless and unable to stay at home, to rush out of their homes and respond.

They were terrified that those few seconds at night could bring disaster upon themselves and their entire family.

That would be a case of losing more than you gain...

"Swish, swish, swish—!"

Soon, countless high-ranking members of Sunagakure transformed into shadowy figures and arrived in an orderly fashion in front of the Kazekage's office.

They jointly elected and nominated the former Kazekage advisor, Soemon, to knock on the door of the temporary office of Jiang Ming, the second-generation leader of the Land of Rain, which once belonged to the Kazekage, the highest authority in Sunagakure.

They inquired with Jiang Ming inside what instructions he had given them for summoning them here.

This dispelled the fear and unease in the hearts of the many high-ranking officials of Sunagakure present.

This allows them to face the situation calmly.

"It's me again?"

This time, Soemon, the former advisor to the Kazekage, refused to do anything.

He immediately waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that none of the many high-ranking officials from Sunagakure present were human.

They were all ghosts who were driving him to the brink of despair.

They left him absolutely no way out.

All the bad things were pinned on him.

It was truly a painful experience...

"Last time, I became a historical sinner of the entire Sunagakure Village because I signed an unconditional surrender document with Jiang Ming, the second leader of the Land of Rain."

"And now, you actually want me to act as your representative and probe that person's current mood..."

This is practically pushing Saemon, the former Kazekage advisor, to the brink of despair.

He was forced to shoulder everything.

This would make it easier for them to survive.

It is truly despicable...

"Ahem, you can't say that, Lord Saemon..."

Upon hearing this, one of the high-ranking members of Sunagakure coughed a few times.

Trying to appear as if it's all for your own good, she earnestly said, "You are the last Kazekage advisor left in our Sunagakure village."

"If even you cannot take charge under the current circumstances, what will become of us, the remaining underlings?"

This statement is quite artistic.

This subtly flattered the "former advisor to the Kazekage" Saemon.

This label also labeled all the cowardly high-ranking members of Sunagakure present as "small fry, clueless about where to go."

They perfectly positioned themselves and their group as "weak".

They vehemently praised Zuo Weimen as their only remaining support.

If even the former Kazekage advisor, Soemon, cannot protect them, then they will truly be fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

"You'd better stand up straight, Lord Saemon!"

At this moment, countless high-ranking members of Sunagakure were frantically praising Saemon.

They almost hailed him as the "savior" of the entire Sunagakure village.

Unbeknownst to him, he was pushed by the crowd to the front door of the Wind Shadow's office.

A bewildered smile and a silly grin filled the air as he knocked on the door.

They were clearly fooled by the sweet talk of the Sand Village's higher-ups.

In a moment of inspiration, he did what he considered to be the most brainless thing.
