Ita Haneda came this time because he was interested in the hydroelectric power plant technology and planned to introduce it to the Land of Fire.

Ita Haneda looked at Kinseki and said, "So it's you, Kinseki. You poured me sake when I met with the Lord of the Land of Earth, Daikura."

Jin Shi quickly bowed his head: "Lord Haneda, it's me."

The daimyo of the land of Kawa no Kuni gestured for his younger sister, Chisa, to sit next to him.

After sitting down, Oi Chisa stared at the Fox Anbu.

Neither the Lord of the Fire Country nor the captain of the Dark Guard attracted Koi Chisa's attention; her mind was preoccupied with figuring out how to probe the true identity of the Fox Dark Guard.

After everyone was seated or standing, Daimyo said:

"Today, our distinguished guest from the Land of Fire, Mr. Daikura-kō no Date Haneda, has arrived in the Land of Rivers."

The land of rivers has suffered a lot of trouble because of the hydroelectric power station.

Konoha and Sunagakure are already at war in the western part of the Land of Rivers, and I don't want Kyoto to be in turmoil as well.

"Mr. Date Haneda, please tell me the instructions from the daimyo of the Land of Fire."

Chapter 128 Who is the Conservative?

The main hall of the castle tower.

Outside the gate is the observation deck, and below the deck flows the turbulent Yoshimizu River.

Sitting in the main hall, you can hear the rushing sound of water.

Date Haneda said:

"Upon learning that the Land of Rivers was using rivers to generate electricity, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire and Taiseiin were extremely interested and immediately copied a blueprint from the Land of Rivers."

After research by craftsmen, hydroelectric power generation proved to be feasible.

Jinshi, this is the official document of the Land of Fire.

The Land of Earth must not destroy the Land of Rivers' hydroelectric power station, nor the Land of Fire's hydroelectric power station.

Ye Guang picked up Ita Haneda's scroll and walked towards Kinseki.

Iwa ninja took it halfway and placed it on Kinshi's table.

Jinshi didn't even look at it and said, "The thermal power plant is related to the sale of coal in the Land of Earth. The Land of Earth will never allow the existence of hydroelectric power plants."

"Heh heh heh." Ita Haneda chuckled twice before saying:

"The ninjas from Konoha have already invaded the Land of Earth, and you still dare to say such things."

The ninjas of Konoha are too merciful. Advisor Homura Mitokado restrains the ninjas, preventing them from killing too many nobles from the Land of Earth.

It is said that the founder of an organization leaves a deep imprint of its DNA on that organization. Even after the founder dies, the organization will still exhibit some of the founder's characteristics.

Konoha Village is great in every way, except that it is too influenced by the First Hokage, making it somewhat idealistic, too gentle, too weak, and too optimistic.

The battle between Konoha and Iwagakure was confined to the ninja.

Jinshi, you people from the Land of Earth don't know pain, that's why you dare to talk to me like that.

I'll give you three seconds. If you don't back down, I'll demand that Konoha escalate the war.

Nobles and commoners alike are both within the scope of this crackdown.

"Look at those scrawny, ugly ninja behind you. Do you think they can save your life?"

Ye Guang thought to himself, no wonder Danzo and Date Haneda worked together so well. Date Haneda looked like he had a big belly, but his heart was black.

He actually felt that Konoha was too sunny.

Having been in the Anbu for so long, how could Ye Guang not know whether Konoha was open or not?

Ita Haneda's attitude was equivalent to the conservatives thinking that the radicals were too conservative.

Yagami believed that Konoha was a militant village, and that the daimyo and nobles of the Land of Fire restrained the ninjas, preventing them from killing indiscriminately.

It now seems that the daimyo and nobles of the Land of Fire somewhat dislike Konoha for being too law-abiding on the territories of other countries.

Perhaps the First Daimyo of the Land of Fire complained about the First Hokage.

Given their immense strength, why don't they help the Land of Fire conquer all other nations?

Fear flashed in Jin Shi's eyes. He lowered his head and opened the scroll.

The scroll clearly states that the hydroelectric power station is an important facility of the Land of Fire, and that Iwagakure's attack on the hydroelectric power station is tantamount to a declaration of war.

The Land of Fire will not hesitate to issue a national war request to Konoha to attack the Land of Earth.

The attack is on the Land of Earth, not on the Village of Iwagakure.

When Jinshi saw the signature and seal of the lord on the back of the document, he knew that the Land of Fire was serious and not just trying to scare him.

Slowly setting down the heavy scroll in his hand, Kinseki looked at the daimyo of the Land of Rivers, then at Date Haneda, and finally at the fox ANBU who had just killed many Iwa ninja.

He said, "I understand, Lord Date Haneda. I will return to the Land of Earth now and deliver this letter."

“That’s right,” said Ita Haneda.

"Your Land of Earth should focus on supporting Iwagakure and dealing with Konoha and Kumogakure."

Konoha still has some morality, but the ninjas of Kumogakure are far more brutal than those of Konoha.

"Alright, that's all for now. I have some matters to discuss with the daimyo of the Land of Rivers."

Jinshi picked up the scroll, and with Iwa ninja bowing their heads, hurriedly left.

With no outsiders in the main hall, Ita Haneda relaxed even more and said, "Your Highness, I'm here to formally discuss the cooperation on the hydroelectric power station with you."

The Land of Rivers is a vassal state of the Land of Fire. The so-called talks about cooperation are merely a way to convey the will of the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

"Your Highness, the Land of Fire has obtained the blueprints for a hydroelectric power station from the Land of Rivers and will send craftsmen to the Land of Rivers to inspect the hydroelectric power station."

The document I just gave to Kinseki states that if any hydroelectric power station in the Land of Fire or the Land of Rivers is attacked, the Land of Fire will entrust Konoha to launch a national war.

Although the Land of Fire obtained the blueprints, it also protected the hydroelectric power station in the Land of Rivers.

We will build a hydroelectric power station on the Naka no Kagawa River.

The Naga River originates in the Land of Rain, flows through the northern part of the Land of Rivers, and is the largest river in the Land of Fire.

The first hydroelectric power station in the land of rivers, all the profits go to the daimyo.

From now on, the Land of Fire and the Land of River will share the profits from the hydroelectric power station in the Land of River 40/60, with the Land of Fire receiving 40% and the Land of River receiving 60%. How about that?

The daimyo of the Land of Rivers waited, but Date Haneda didn't say how the hydroelectric power station in the Land of Fire would be divided. It seemed that the Land of Rivers wouldn't get a share of the hydroelectric power station in the Land of Fire.

The daimyo nodded and said, "Thank you for the Land of Fire's generosity."

Ye Guang secretly clicked his tongue in amazement. The nobles of the Land of Fire were so assertive in front of the daimyo of the Land of Rivers. Weak nations have no diplomacy; it's the same in any world.

Date Haneda was very pleased to see that the daimyo had agreed without arguing. He said:

"Next, I will send craftsmen from the Land of Fire to the hydroelectric power station construction site so that they can learn properly and study the blueprints together."

Speaking of the blueprints, the person who drew them was a genius. The blueprints are clear and concise, the dimensions are precisely marked, and the calculation sheets are complete. It's clear that he was a veteran craftsman.

Crucially, he also understood electricity generation and knew how to convert river water into electricity.

In his previous life, Ye Guang was a civil engineer who ran away with buckets. He could admit that his other abilities were average, but when it came to drawing and interpreting drawings, he was truly a master.

The praise brought value to his past life of working all night on construction sites, where he had to mortar.

Ita Haneda hadn't expected things to go so smoothly; the daimyo of the river province didn't try to bargain.

He stood up, preparing to bid farewell to the daimyo of the Land of Rivers. The Land of Rivers was at war, and he didn't want to stay there any longer.

"Wait! Lord Date Haneda!"

Date Haneda paused, then looked at the daimyo's sister. Did the daimyo's sister think the division was unfair and have something to say about it?

His expression turned rather grim.

Oi Chisa spoke very quickly:

"Lord Ita Haneda, I hope you can allow the Konoha Anbu to remain for this period of time."

The fox-like ANBU behind you defeated many Iwa ninja today. I wonder if I could entrust him with the protection of the hydroelectric power station?

"You want him to protect the hydroelectric power station?" Ita Haneda's expression instantly switched to a friendly tone, as long as it wasn't about profit sharing:

"I don't need your entrustment. Of course, I will entrust this task myself, and the reward will be paid by the Fire Country's Daikyoin."

Ita Haneda turned to look at the yellow dog.

The yellow dog nodded repeatedly and said, "I will do as you command."

Captain Yellow Dog then said to Nightlight, "The Fox Squadron will guard the hydroelectric power station until the Land of Earth promises to give up attacking it, which will be counted as one A-level mission."

While Konoha and Sunagakure were locked in a bloody battle, the Fox Squadron remained in Kyoto, the Land of Rivers.

The Fox Squadron works in three shifts, guarding the hydroelectric power station.

As for Ye Guang, as the squad leader, he should have the privilege of resting, right?

He was dealing with someone even more difficult, such as Okura no Tomosa.

Chapter 129 Forever with her back to her lover

Koi Chisa walked along the banks of the Yoshimizu River, followed by the Fox Anbu.

She said she might be assassinated and that the Fox Secret Service should protect her at all times, never leaving her more than three steps away.

Ye Guang really enjoys coming to the construction site.

The craftsman leader actually knew some simple D-rank ninjutsu. He used a little chakra to dig the foundation pit, build the walls, and fill the soil, similar to a half-finished earth-style ninjutsu, and the construction speed was very fast.

Every morning, Chisa Oi eats at the same table as the fox.

She ate the exquisite dishes, while the Fox Secret Service simply tossed a soldier's ration into the gap in the mask's opening.

After learning how to break through water waves, Nightlight adjusted his mask, creating a long, thin slit at the mouth.

The fox mask was already rather sinister, and the addition of a slit at the mouth made it appear even colder, even somewhat fierce and cruel.

While the two were at the Daizoin, Oi Chisa was working, and the Fox Anbu was leaning against the corner of the wall behind her.

She once led the fox's secret service into the courtyard where Mi Qu used to live, but the fox remained unmoved.

The light in Oi Chisa's eyes grew dimmer and dimmer. Could she have been seeing things wrong?

Until the night of the full moon, she prepared to make one last attempt.

She approached the Fox's Dark Guard and raised her hand.

Ye Guang was taken aback. If Xiao Jingzhisha were to directly remove his mask, then he would have no choice but to take action.

However, Oi Chisa simply tapped her mask twice and pushed up her glasses with her other hand.

Ye Guang was taken aback; he understood what Xiao Jingzhi meant.

This world has ninja temples like the Temple of Fire, and also some Buddhist scriptures.

There is a Buddhist scripture called the Platform Sutra, which records how the Fifth Patriarch, Faren, used a method of tapping his head to tell the Sixth Patriarch what time to find him in the middle of the night.

This story was later included in Journey to the West, where Sun Wukong also used a tap on the head as a hint when he went to see the Bodhi Patriarch.

Zhi Sha tapped his mask twice. Was she telling him to come see her at 2 a.m.?

-

The full moon shines like a silver plate; tonight is a night of full moon.

At 2 a.m., Koi Chisa stood by her desk. The power was off and there were no lights, so she didn't light any candles.

She opened the window and looked at the bright moon in the sky.

The room was empty; the maid had been sent away elsewhere long ago.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded behind me.

"Is that you? Only you know what it means when I push up my glasses. You like me wearing glasses all the time, don't you?"

The person behind him did not answer.

"My sixth sense tells me it must be you."
