Roll back from Naruto

Not only the Kingdom of Water, but also the many small countries around it will become the accomplices of the Kingdom of Whirlpool this time, as Aragaki guessed.

The current situation of the Kingdom of Whirlpool is like that of a lone antelope or horned ox on the grassland. In addition to lions and cheetahs, it is surrounded by a group of hyenas that smell the fish.

In this case, although Konoha did not turn into a beast like others and attack the Kingdom of Whirlpool personally, it was nothing more than an accomplice who sat back and did nothing, or turned a blind eye.

Konoha will use the excuse of the tight war against the Land of Rain and the Land of Wind to mobilize the vast majority of ninjas from the eastern front of the Land of Fire, where they originally fought against the Mist Ninjas, to the west.

It can be said that only a very few people in Konoha know about this decision, and those who know it have reached a consensus.

In other words, the vast majority of Konoha's ninjas would only learn of the tragic destruction of their former "ally" after the Kingdom of Whirlpool was destroyed.

So when the time comes, everyone will probably regret not being able to lend a helping hand to the Kingdom of Whirlpool in time.

As for why the masked man, a secular dignitary of the Fire Nation, could know this information.

The reason is very simple. This war is not about the armed ninjas from each country competing against each other to determine success or failure, and finally signing a so-called treaty to redistribute interests.

Instead, he really wanted to destroy a country and wipe it off the map.

There is no possibility of peace talks or signing of any treaty.

So, it's no longer just about the war of ninjas.

For example, after the multinational ninja coalition captured the Country of Uzumaki and wiped out all the ninjas of the Country of Uzumaki, how should such a large "cake" be divided up except for the Hidden Village of Uzumaki? What about the original islanders of the Country of Uzumaki?

How to deal with it?

Naturally, these mundane and trivial matters will not be completely left to ninjas.

According to established rules, secular matters must be left to secular people to handle.

Regardless of the dignitaries of the Kingdom of Fire or the princes and nobles of the Kingdom of Water, who wouldn’t want to eat the most and be the fullest at this night banquet?

To be more specific, the information Aragaki intercepted from the masked man's brain was an agreement on how to divide the "cake".

For example, the masked man himself, as the younger brother of the current daimyo of the Land of Fire, what he wants to take this time is nearly one-third of the market share of the maritime industry of the Land of Whirlpool.

Engaging in maritime trade and economics is naturally not a matter for ninjas, and the ninja village needs to support ninjas, so nominally it depends on the state's financial allocation.

Of course, the masked man is not the only one who really enjoys this cake. Naturally, there is also the Fire Nation behind him, so isn't it Konoha who stands behind the Fire Nation?

After all, ninjas are not engaged in production. Apart from war, they are only engaged in the tertiary service industry.

So from this perspective, Konoha is also sucking the bone marrow blood from the remains of the Uzumaki Kingdom.

…

And Aragaki, why is he so interested in this kind of thing?

No, we shouldn't say that. We should ask why Niiguanji has such a strong interest in worldly money and things.

Could it be that after the last fight with Kakuzu, Kakuzu infected him with money worship?

In fact, judging from Aragaki's current strength, as a bounty hunter he could easily catch two of the guys on the list and get 180 million, which would be enough for him to live a life of luxury and wealth for several years.

The worst thing you can do is catch them after you use them up, and then exchange them for bounties.

However, what if Aragaki's ambition is not just to be a bounty hunter?

Especially after this trip to Kyoto, he deeply understood the truth that no matter how free a person is, he will always be controlled by the surrounding environment and people.

Since he had no source of intelligence, he had to dive headfirst into the world of bounty hunting.

But originally he wanted to be a dutiful bounty worker, but every now and then either Zhang San or Li Si would come looking for his bad luck.

Although he finally got what he wanted directly from the masked man's head with his strong strength, it was okay once, but if it happened again and again, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to personally make a big splash every time.

.

To put it nicely, he is free and bold, a prodigal and unruly; to put it worse, he is just a madman in the eyes of others.

So, what if this huge underground black market in the ninja world can even be used by powerful people like the masked man?

Wouldn't it be like pushing his legs on the desk, leaning back on the boss's chair, holding a glass of pure grape wine in his right hand, and hugging him with his left hand... Forget it, the masked man nodded and bowed and offered him the gift of the ninja world with both hands.

All trends.

Isn’t it beautiful?

This is called pattern!

And Kakuzu, a wage earner, is his "lesson". Should Aragaki have to work for a lifetime in the future, only to be squandered by a prodigal woman in the end?

So Aragaki is now waiting, waiting for someone, and waiting for an opportunity that will allow him to truly come into contact with the "top level" of the black market.

…

However, when Aragaki heard the footsteps and turned his head, what came into his eyes was a pair of long legs wrapped in fishnet black silk, stopping not far from him.

"It's you, are you here to apply for a job?" Aragaki's face fell, because he was not waiting for Shizuka Uchiha.

When Aragaki asked such a confused question, Uchiha Shizu's brows tightened even more, but he still did not dare to take another step forward.

Instead, he said: "Applying for a job? What is applying for a job...and you are actually drinking?"

"What? You guys in the security force even have to control the drinking of underage ninjas? Come on, I'm a rebel ninja, a traitor who kills without blinking an eye! What's wrong with drinking a little before killing someone?"

Hearing Aragaki say that he wanted to "kill someone", Uchiha Shizu couldn't help but stepped back.

"Kill! Who are you going to kill?" That nervous look was almost like opening the Sharingan.

Looking at Shizuo Uchiha, who is not very smart, Aragaki grinned: "Kill you, you have been chasing me here, who else will I kill if I don't kill you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Shizu opened his eyes for an instant, then took out his kunai and flew away, as if facing a formidable enemy.

But he hurriedly said: "Stop, I'm not here to cause trouble for you!"

Aragaki was really amused. It seemed that the woman was so scared by him last time. No, this time she even learned to wear stockings when she came to him.

"I haven't made a move yet, why should I hold back? Or are you actually ready for me to make a move in your heart? By the way, didn't I say last time that it would be a sure thing this time? I didn't expect you to wear silk..."

"Stop! I brought a letter from the Third Hokage, it's for you."

Uchiha Shizu immediately took out a letter from his jacket, held it in his hand and shouted to Aragaki.

Well, those who wanted to wait didn't come, but those who didn't want to wait all came.

"Third Hokage, a challenge? You can tear it up for me, I won't accept the challenge." However, Aragaki's next words almost choked Uchiha Shizu to death.

This is the first time she has met such an unreasonable... rebellious ninja!
