Uchiha's personal opinion

"Your achievements will not be forgotten!"

The entire fleet erupted in jubilation once again.

Then, a second telegram arrived: "To Commander Lumb: Select a location to establish an outpost and gather intelligence!"

"Reply: We vow to complete the mission to the death!"

Having completely let go of all his inner burdens, Uchiha Rumbu gave the order in a relaxed tone he hadn't used since the time he went astray.

"Now, let's get down to business!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said to Uzumaki Ichiraku.

"Should we send a squadron to search for the location where we got lost?"

"Ichiraku Uzumaki asked."

"Having been lost for so long, drifting around by sheer fate, can you still find your way back to where you started?"

Uchiha Rumbu countered with a question.

Uzumaki Ichiraku also stopped talking.

That's true. After all, the fleet has been wandering around aimlessly for the past few months, and all navigation methods have failed. Even the route maps that were barely drawn were full of errors and assumptions, making it almost impossible to find the departure point.

"Therefore, Lord Deguang's instructions are definitely correct!"

Uchiha Lunbu made the final decision: "Establish a base and wait for the hurricane barrier to disappear. Then we can find the way back via direct telegram communication!"

……

After communicating with the ocean fleet, Uchiha Tokumitsu returned to his birthplace, Fubo Castle in the Land of Whirlpools.

This fortress-like city of ninjas was built after he was appointed one of the five great generals by the daimyo of the Land of Fire. It can be considered the true birthplace of the dragon, so Uchiha Tokumitsu also plans to hold the Ninja World Mihei Alliance Conference here.

Although Fubo City is geographically remote, and the representatives from all parties attending the meeting may have to travel a long distance and cause considerable trouble, Uchiha Tokumitsu believed that they would have no objections.

Of course, more importantly, they dared not have any opinions.

After all, the glorious achievement of destroying two major ninja villages in one battle was enough to suppress any dissent.

……

"Mibing Alliance..."

After receiving the invitation forwarded by Uchiha Shihuo, Mr. Rasa, the ruler of the Land of Wind, the Fourth Kazekage, and a puppet of the shogunate in the eyes of the radical faction of Sunagakure, had extremely complicated feelings.

The so-called "Mibing" in the invitation, which says "to usher in an era of peace for all ages in the ninja world," means, in Rasa's understanding, that everyone will hand over all control of the ninja army of the ninja village to the newly established organization, and from then on, the ninja village will become a symbolic existence.

Surely the alliance didn't make these dumplings just because of his jealousy!

After all, the only ninja village in the ninja world that was still outside the shogunate was Sunagakure, which he led!

I've always been a good partner of the shogunate, so there shouldn't be any problems if I go to the alliance meeting!

big deal...

"boom!"

Just as Luo Sha was lost in thought, the door to his Fengying office was kicked open!

"Who dares to be so bold!"

Shocked and enraged, Rasa immediately sprang into action, ready to unleash his Magnet Release ninjutsu to kill the offender.

"it's me!"

Ye Cang walked in with an extremely pale face.

"...Are you planning to start a civil war in the village?"

Luo Sha said with a gloomy face, "You must understand that the dignity of the Shadow cannot be challenged!"

Ever since Rasa became the Fourth Kazekage, Pakura, who was in charge of the Sunagakure Inspectorate, had never stopped her provocative little actions; however, Pakura had a very good grasp of the situation, keeping it at a level that was a bit disgusting but not to the point of turning against him. In addition, she also had to show her kindness and harmony to the Sunagakure ninjas, so Rasa could only grit his teeth and choose to forgive her.

But kicking down the door to the Kazekage's office changes everything!

This time, Rasa was truly determined to kill!

"Are you going to attend the Mi Bing Alliance meeting?"

Yecang paid no attention to the golden sand that Luo Sha had gathered at his fingertips, and asked with a serious expression.

Before the invitation from the alliance reached Sunagakure,

"You have a problem with that?"

Rosa retorted instinctively.

"You need to understand what the price is for joining the alliance..."

Ye Cang said coldly.

"So, you're planning to break with the shogunate?"

Luo Sha still sneered.

As the Kazekage, he knew all too well what kind of trouble the radicals could possibly cause! It was nothing more than the same old clichés about rejecting the Shogunate's control and becoming a powerful and influential nation!

Even Luo Sha was prepared to refute him from the perspective of strength.

"...At the alliance meeting at that time, we hope that you will voluntarily resign from the position of Wind Shadow."

Ye Cang said slowly.

"Magnetic Release: Gold Sand Shuriken!"

Luo Sha felt the string of reason in his mind snap, and without hesitation, he turned the gold sand he carried into shuriken and shot them toward Ye Cang!

"Your Excellency! Please don't be ungrateful!"

As one of the top fighters in Sunagakure, Yekura naturally wouldn't be harmed by Rasa's angry attack; she instantly flashed out of the Kazekage's office, and at the same time, four huge Scorching Release fireballs were condensed, ready to be used.

"So the radicals have become the rebels!"

Rasa, whose rationality had been completely shattered, simply wouldn't listen!

Yekura's vigilance in particular infuriated him: "I am the only Kage of Sunagakure!"

"Magnetic Escape·Sand Gold Wave!"

"Scorching Escape - Over-Steam Kill!"

Yekura also made her move without hesitation!

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the scorching fireball and the torrent of gold dust both vanished. The molten gold dust splattered everywhere, leaving the Kazekage's office cratered inside and out. The huge commotion even alerted the Shadow Guard and Yekura's entourage.

"stop!"

Unable to gain the upper hand, Luo Sha calmed himself down slightly and ordered the Shadow Guards, who were about to surround and kill Ye Cang's subordinates, to stop.

Yecang immediately put away the Scorching Release Fireball and stared at Rasa with a livid face.

"...Let's talk somewhere else!"

Since the office was completely destroyed, Luo Sha turned around and walked towards the conference room next door.

Ye Cang hesitated for a moment before entering the conference room.

"What kind of trouble are you trying to cause?"

Sitting in the main seat of the conference room, Luo Sha said wearily.

"The position of Kazekage was established in imitation of the Hokage system of Konoha. Now that Uchiha Tokumitsu has killed the Tsuchikage and Raikage, he has completely overturned the system of one village, one country. The Kazekage of the village is also a remnant of the old era. It may be inappropriate for Your Excellency to continue to retain the title of Kazekage..."

Yekura also expressed her opinion.

"Aren't you a radical? What? Now that you see the Shogunate is powerful, you're going to lead the way in defecting to the enemy?"

Luo Sha said sarcastically.

"But I know that we cannot contend with the power of the shogunate."

Yecang said without changing his expression, "Even those ninjas hired by the joint company that came to the Land of Wind with the Oasis contract cannot be driven away by the village alone."

"Is this your approach based on power and status?"

Luo Sha chuckled: "Since when has the Will of Wind become a fence-sitter?"

"This is not being a fence-sitter, but rather starting from reality."

Yecang remained unperturbed and calmly stated, "Everything I've done is for the continuation of the village."

"so what?"

Luo Sha countered with a question.

“The Inspectorate can be dissolved, and the radicals will cease to exist.”

Yekura stated her conditions.

"and then?"

Luo Sha raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

This means that Ye Cang has deliberately and completely dismantled his forces!

Without the Inspectorate as a vehicle, he, as the Kazekage and regent, could divide those stubborn radical Sunagakure members one by one through various means such as transfers, demotions, promotions in name only, and infiltration.

"The name of Sunagakure must be preserved..."

Yekura stated her demands: "Even if we have to accept the control of the shogunate, Sunagakure must continue to exist, and its status must be higher than that of the defeated and surrendered Kumogakure and Iwagakure!"

"Even if we have to use the village's ninjas to fill the battle lines and die, we must wait until all the Hidden Cloud Village and Hidden Stone Village are wiped out before letting the Hidden Sand Village go!"

"...What do you mean by that?"

Luo Sha's expression immediately turned serious.

"Mt. Miaomu."

Yekura slowly said, "It might even include Ryuchi Cave. These so-called holy sites will definitely be the next targets of the shogunate's attack!"

"...Why are you so sure?"

Luo Sha took a deep breath: "And what does all this have to do with us!"
