Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu

First, end the war and return to the situation before the war.

The Land of Rivers is under the protection of the Land of Fire. Sand ninjas must obtain permission from Konoha, complete the necessary procedures, and pay taxes before entering the Land of Rivers to carry out missions.

Ebizo lowered his head slightly and looked at the table.

During the more than six months of war, nearly 2000 ninjas from Sunagakure died, and in the end, they gained nothing.

He had no choice but to agree to Konoha's request.

Nara Deer Antlers continued:

"Second, no one shall tamper with the Jishui River."

Yoshimizu River is an important river that runs through Kyoto, the land of rivers. The Sand Village is not allowed to divert water from the caves into the northern part of the Land of Wind, so as not to damage the Yoshimizu River section within the Land of Rain.

At this time, a hydroelectric power station was built on the Yoshino River, which was even more important.

The Sand Village's destruction of the Yoshimizu River will directly trigger a declaration of war between the Land of Fire and Konoha.

Ashikaga Sakka suddenly spoke, saying:

"Chief Deer Antlers, there's no need to be so absolute about this."

The daimyo of the Land of Wind has already sent a delegation to visit the daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers.

The Yoshimizu River has abundant water, and a planned, small-scale diversion of water from the Yoshioka Mountains would not have a significant impact on Kyoto, the land of rivers.

The Land of Wind desires more oases in the north, a need that cannot be met through war. The Land of Wind is willing to sacrifice some resources and diplomatic resources to resolve this through negotiations with the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers.

Luo Sha then spoke:

"Lord Ashikaga Sakka, the total amount of resources in the Land of Wind is finite, and we must not cede too much during the negotiations."

Otherwise, how does His Highness intend to make up for the losses?

Ashikaga Sadakazu glanced at Rasa again; this Jonin was quite intelligent. He asked the crucial question. Ashikaga Sadakazu said:

“Jonin Rasa, I’m just a pot-bellied nobleman. It won’t take you three seconds to kill me.”

However, I hope you will also take the interests of the Wind Kingdom seriously.

Upon hearing the news that a large oasis was on the horizon in the northern part of the Land of Wind, the daimyo and all the nobles of Kyoto discussed it excitedly throughout the night.

Once completed, the large oasis at the foot of the Jigang Mountains will bring abundant food, population, and wealth.

That way, we can better support Sunagakure.

However, until that oasis is completed, they will have to make do with the hardships of Sunagakure and live frugally with us.

Ebizo then understood that the Daimyo wanted to reduce funding for Sunagakure in order to make use of the funds to pay reparations to the Land of Fire and the Land of Rivers for the sake of the oasis under the Yoshioka Mountains.

Noticing Ebizo's unfriendly gaze, Ashikaga Sadakaze continued:

"Advisor Ebizo, our Wind Kingdom has given its full support to this war."

The government has even decided to supply 2% more steel than you requested.

We will supply all the yellow privet wood you need, and its price is six times that before the war.

The extra procurement costs were all borne by the Kingdom of Wind.

The Land of Wind wants to establish an oasis in the north, and we have done everything we can.

Even with the destruction of Shapo Port and the sinking of 20 of the Daimyo's ships, the Land of Wind was prepared to silently bear the losses.

We have a clear conscience; we have done everything in our power to support Sunagakure.

Having lost the war, we now have to find other ways to change the dire situation in the northern desert.

Therefore, I formally explained to Advisor Ebizo that we will have to cut all funding.

The main hall of the Daimyo's castle, the construction of Kyoto, the paving of the main roads in the Land of Wind, and even the funding for Sunagakure will all be reduced.

I will then officially travel to Sunagakure to explain my decision regarding the Daimyo to the Kazekage.

"We had no choice, don't you think, Advisor Ebizo?"

Ye Guang traveled through time and met two great nobles: one was Date Haneda, the lord of the Land of Fire, and the other was Ashikaga Sadakaze, who was standing before him.

These two nobles are not bad at all.

Ashikaga Sadao was pot-bellied, but his thinking was clear and his explanations were logically connected.

Even after careful consideration, Ye Guang couldn't come up with a good solution that would allow Sunagakure to rightfully refuse the Daimyo of the Land of Wind's decision.

The Sand Village could kill both the daimyo and Ashikaga Sakka.

However, in that case, the Land of Wind would collapse first.

The relationship between the country and the village is a cooperative one; if one side collapses, it is not good for the other.

With his eyes closed and brows slightly furrowed, Ebizo had no choice but to accept the situation after a mental struggle.

Luo Sha, who was standing to the side, was also there.

He could indeed kill Ashikaga Sadafu with ease; he had killed many of these nobles who defied Sunagakure.

However, Sunagakure is really in the wrong in this matter.

It's because they lost the war.

If they can defeat Konoha and take over the Land of Rivers, then the problem of Yoshimizu River will not be a problem at all.

If the daimyo of the Land of Rivers dares to utter a single extra word, the Rain Ninja will use puppets to kill him.

Killing nobles can solve some problems, but not all of them.

When the Daimyo of the Land of Wind is resolute and has a valid reason, the Sand Village has no choice but to back down.

The funding cuts weren't targeted at Sunagakure; the entire Land of Wind was suffering together.

After sighing, Ebizo said, "Lord Ashikaga Sakka, I understand. I will apologize to Lord Kazekage and to the Daimyo."

Ashikaga Sadakaze turned his head and said, "Chief Shikanobu, please continue."

Chapter 160 Victory

Nara deer antlers enjoyed a good show.

The Daimyo of the Land of Wind seems to be very dissatisfied with Sunagakure, so much so that he is unwilling to discuss things privately and instead opens fire in front of outsiders.

The Land of Wind was already impoverished, and with more than twenty ships sunk in the port of Shapo, the unconditional support for the war yielded no results, leaving the daimyo of the Land of Wind utterly disappointed.

Nara Kazuno continued explaining the ceasefire conditions:

"Third, Sunagakure paid Konoha 2 million ryo in compensation, and the Land of Wind paid the Land of Rivers 1.8 million ryo in compensation."

Konoha suffered heavy casualties in this war. As the defeated party, Sunagakure must pay war reparations to compensate the families of Konoha's dead ninja.

The western region of the land of rivers, believing the war to have nearly ended in ruin, also demands reparations.

Ebizo naturally refused to accept this exorbitant figure, and the two sides had a heated argument over compensation.

Nara Deer Antlers remained very calm and did not give an inch.

After a stalemate of more than twenty minutes, Nara Kazunoku made a small concession, offering 1.9 million ryo, while Kawanoku offered 1.7 million ryo, and the two sides reached an agreement.

Ebizo said:

"Now that you've stated your conditions, we also have our requirements."

The bodies of the Sand Village ninja, including Camelthorn, must be returned to Sunagakure as soon as possible and buried.

Nara Shikaku said, "Of course. The corpse of the Camel Thorn Jonin and the puppet fragments can be returned to you."

Ebizo couldn't catch his breath and was angered by Nara's antlers.

Nara Shikaku actually said that the puppet fragments should also be returned, which clearly means that Sunagakure's puppetry is trash and Konoha has no reason to keep them.

He originally wanted to compete with Konoha for the puppet; even fragments of the Camel Thorn puppet would be very valuable.

Unexpectedly, Nara Kazuya had already guessed this and directly told them to take all that garbage back as soon as possible.

The two sides then discussed procedures and taxes for cross-border missions, and the meeting concluded.

The staff formulated a peace agreement, which was signed by the Land of Wind, Konoha Village, and Sunagakure Village, and the agreement was officially concluded.

Ebizo stared at the five people from Konoha, looking at each one for several seconds, and finally said:

"Konoha is truly full of talented people. In this battle, war heroes such as White Fang, Akimichi Yamashiro, and Copper Fox were born."

Nara Kazumi, your command is as sharp as ever.

"My Sand Village concedes defeat, and My Hidden Mist Village declares war on Your Hidden Leaf Village. Now, we can only hope that My Hidden Mist Village will deliver a crushing blow to Your Hidden Leaf Village."

Ebizo looked at the copper fox; this man was the murderer who killed his nephew's wife.

What's frustrating is that even if he made a move now, he couldn't kill the Bronze Fox.

The Copper Fox's defensive capabilities have been proven on the battlefield, and the intelligence gathered indicates that it is impossible to break through its defenses using ordinary means.

"The Hidden Mist Village has dealt us a heavy blow?" Nara Shikazuki said.

"The war in the Land of Whirlpools will be commanded by advisor Danzo and clan head Uchiha Kane. Your expectations may be dashed."

"Oh?" Ebizo smiled instead; this was the first time he had ever smiled.

"If Danzo and Uchiha Bell were in command, Kirigakure would surely be able to crush your Konoha. The entire ninja world knows that Danzo despises the Uchiha."

Nara Shikano was taken aback, and then felt that it was a little inappropriate to make Danzo the chief commander and Uchiha Zhong the deputy commander.

Danzo's biggest complaint was that the Uchiha clan controlled the Konoha Police Department, which meant that the Uchiha clan had the final say on many grassroots affairs and cases in the village.

Nara Shika led his men away from the oasis.

The war in the land of rivers, which lasted for more than half a year, has officially come to an end.

Ye Guang chose a mission, left the main force, and headed to Kyoto, the land of rivers, with a copy of the peace agreement.

Beside the Yoshimizu River outside Kyoto, Yoko listened to the rushing water and felt a little melancholy.

After returning to the village this time, I may rarely come to Kyoto, the land of rivers, and thus rarely see Oi Chisa.

Upon entering Kyoto Castle, Yako met the daimyo of the land of rivers.

In the main hall, the Daimyo of the Land of Rivers sat in the main seat, formally receiving the Konoha Anbu and carefully looking at the peace agreement.

Okura no Kōjisa sat to one side, staring intently at the fox opposite her.

Sending a copy of the peace treaty was secondary; the fox had come to say goodbye.

Night Light said:

"Your Highness, the war in the Land of Rivers has officially ended. The Land of Wind and the Hidden Sand Village are incapable of waging war again in the short term, so please rest assured."

There is something that the Nara Kazuno Commander-in-Chief would like to specifically remind His Highness.

The daimyo of the Land of Wind is preparing to send a delegation to Kyoto, the Land of Fire, and Kyoto, the Land of Rivers.

They will discuss with you, the daimyo of the Land of Fire, the matter of extracting water from the underground caves in the Yoshioka Mountains.

The Land of Wind plans to create a small tributary on the Yoshi River in the Land of Rain, aiming to create an oasis for the Land of Wind while minimizing the impact on the flow of the Yoshi River in the Land of Rivers.

Unless the two daimyo entrust the village with a national-level mission, Konoha will not get involved in this matter.

The Land of Fire, the Land of Rivers, and the Land of Wind can reach an agreement through diplomatic means.

According to the light of the night, the Nara antlers mean that Konoha is unwilling to cross the Land of Rivers to the Land of Rain to maintain the long Yoshimizu River.

It consumes a lot of resources and provides poor protection.

It would be better to leave it to the warlords of the Three Kingdoms to discuss themselves.

The daimyo of the Land of Wind nodded and said, "I understand. I will send an envoy to the capital of the Land of Fire to reach a consensus with the daimyo of the Land of Fire as soon as possible."

Ye Guang also said:

"Your Highness, I suggest that you establish a flow monitoring system on the Yoshimizu River."

"When the water level drops, it's crucial to detect it as early as possible and take swift action. There's already a hydroelectric power station on the Yoshino River; we can't afford to lose it."

The daimyo turned to his younger sister and said, "Lord Daizo, you should establish a water level monitoring system according to Konoha's Copper Fox's suggestion."

I've heard of the name Copper Fox, and I've also heard of the daimyo of the River Country.

This is the prestige of a ninja. The more Copper Fox appears in the ninja world, the more renowned his name becomes.
