When Hiruzen Sarutobi took office, the major ninja clans were already very dissatisfied. Since his methods were not as good as his master Tobirama's, he could only gain the support of these ninja clans by giving up a lot of benefits.

Therefore, Minato Namikaze's political abilities, as demonstrated after this compensation incident, will be an important factor for these ninja clans to assess.

Whether the Hokage will back down or the ninja clans will have to give way remains to be seen.

In Minato's eyes, after he had thoroughly understood Konoha's politics and established a group that supported him...

The root organization needs to be thoroughly cleaned up!

"Is this the City of First Sunrise?"

"Ah! The streets alone are so much wider than those in Konoha!"

"It feels like I've arrived in a huge city!"

On the fourth day, the caravan finally arrived at Sunrise City.

Kushina climbed out of the window, her upper body exposed, and excitedly surveyed her surroundings.

Her eyes seemed to light up, especially when she saw those enormous buildings that were as tall as forty meters.

"Kushina, you can watch properly later, don't stick your head out like that."

Kiyoi Ai reluctantly pulled Kushina back.

Sure enough, this person has an exceptionally lively personality.

"Kushina, although there are many places worth visiting in the outer castle, the inner castle is still the best!"

Mikoto looked happy as she talked about the Cat Paw Diner in the inner city.

"There are so many cute and handsome cats there!"

The commotion came from the carriage.

Outside the carriage, Kakashi, Obito, and Rin, walking along the road, looked around, their eyes lighting up as they gazed at the spacious and vibrant street.

How could they not be curious about what Uncle Yuan's territory would look like!

It must be a happy place.

The group followed the caravan directly into the inner city with great enthusiasm. They would first go to an inn to rest before starting their sightseeing.

Meanwhile, Kiyoi Gen, who was in his office at Konoha House, received a message from Bai Miao.

[Honey, the Sand Village wants to make a deal with us in exchange for a ceasefire agreement.]

Wow~

Luo Sha, so you really intend to do it.

What conditions did they propose?

They said they could let Pakura come and negotiate with Kirigakure alone, and that Sunagakure wouldn't interfere with what happened afterward.

Kiyoshi Gen tapped his fingers on the table and said.

[Find a way to obtain evidence that they intend to trade for Yekura's life.]

[This will be used later when we try to win back the hearts of the people of Sunagakure.]

Of course, this will also be an opportunity to train the Kazekage designated by their Sunrise City.

Chapter 237 The War That Is Not Over

In the end, Konoha won the Third Shinobi World War with a Pyrrhic victory and began signing peace treaties with other villages.

Iwagakure is not required to pay compensation because of Hiruzen Sarutobi's promise.

The Hidden Cloud Village is still arguing with the Leaf Village about compensation.

Sunagakure directly signed another alliance agreement with Konoha and compensated them with some supplies.

Because of this defeat, the Daimyo of the Land of Wind reduced the military budget allocation for Sunagakure, forcing Rasa, who had become the Fourth Kazekage, to pan for gold in the desert and then trade with the Sunagakure Merchant Guild.

The war did not end with Konoha's victory.

For example, the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village have developed a deep hatred for each other, leading to constant friction along their border.

For some reason, Sunagakure and Iwagakure have clashed again, and the two sides continue to fight.

Meanwhile, Kirigakure was constantly harassing the borders of Sunagakure because Madara Uchiha disliked Sunagakure.

Although they didn't actually fight many times, Sunagakure didn't dare to relax at all, and kept troops on guard against attacks from Kirigakure ninja.

As a result of fighting on two fronts, Sunagakure is in a very difficult situation, and Rasa, as the Kazekage, is also having a major headache.

Then, for some reason, he suddenly lost his mind and offered to make peace with Kirigakure in exchange for the lives of many of Pakura's people.

Now Ban was even more annoyed with him. If it weren't for Kiyoi Gen stopping him, Rasa would probably have sunk to a depth of 100 meters below the desert surface tomorrow.

In short, since Sunagakure is willing to cut off its own arm, Gen Kiyoi is happy to oblige.

So Bai Miao, in his capacity as the Mizukage, agreed, and Sunagakure secretly dispatched Yekura to the Land of Water to sign a peace treaty with Kirigakure.

Yekura had no doubts and went alone to the misty valley in the Land of Water, which she had designated in advance, and saw a Hidden Mist Ninja.

She said coldly.

"where to?"

The person in front of me is quite good-looking, but his smile seems to have nothing to do with a ninja.

"This is it."

The other person raised their right index finger, and at the same moment, Yekura felt a sharp pain in her heart as a blood-stained kunai was thrust out.

What happened?!

"Luo Sha actually sent you alone."

"We have received his sincerity. Now, we ask that you, the hero of Sunagakure, die here to commemorate our fallen Kirigakure ninja!"

what? !

Yekura's eyes widened, and she saw many Kirigakure ninjas appear around the valley, throwing countless kunai at her.

"puff!"

I am in excruciating pain all over my body and my body is losing temperature.

"boom!"

Yekura collapsed to the ground, her smooth back riddled with kunai.

Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, and her ten fingers dug ten marks into the dark blue ground.

why?

Why did the Hidden Mist Village suddenly attack her?!

Yekura suddenly realized that she had been betrayed by Sunagakure.

White teeth were stained with blood.

She is not reconciled!

If she could be resurrected, she would kill all the Hidden Mist Villages, and also the Hidden Sand Villages that were colluding with the Hidden Mist Villages!

Just as I resignedly closed my eyes, all my sensations suddenly changed.

She was still standing there, and in front of her was still the person who didn't look like a ninja.

wrong!

Yecang noticed that the person in front of her had no headband and was wearing clothes she had never seen before, but the faint smile on his lips seemed very familiar to her.

"Would you like to rest for a while?"

"Although my illusion is very realistic, it also puts a great burden on the mind."

Illusion!

Such realistic illusions?!

Yekura raised her hand and saw that her hands were trembling and cold sweat was dripping down her forehead.

She gritted her teeth, her expression fierce.

"What exactly does Kirigakure mean by this?!"

Kiyoshi Gen maintained a mysterious smile.

"Just like what you just experienced."

"Rasa betrayed you to us in order to make peace with Kirigakure."

"And you, in the eyes of the people of Sunagakure, are a hero who died at the hands of the Iwagakure ninja."

He paused for a moment, then spoke in a mocking tone.

"Hero? What an ironic title."

"You, like Rasa, shone brightly in the Third Shinobi World War and were recognized as a hero by the village."

"But now he has betrayed me and become a sacrificed hero."

!!!

"Shut up!"

Ye Cang roared, and a fireball with the Scorching Release technique suddenly appeared in his palm.

"You people of Kirigakure deserve to die!"

Kiyoshi Gen remained unfazed, as if he hadn't sensed any danger.

"Aren't you wondering why the fog is so thick in this valley?"

Water Escape · Water Breaks Waves!

A thin stream of water pierced through the rock wall and struck the Scorching Release fireball in Yekura's hand, extinguishing it.

The next moment, Ye Cang felt a sharp blade against her neck.

"Move again and you're dead!"
