The reason for this arrangement is not that he lacks the strength, but rather a matter of manpower.

Although the number of ninjas in Kumogakure and the Uchiha clan has increased significantly in recent years, it is still far from enough to take over the entire ninja world.

After hearing what Uchiha Yuzuru said, the Third Raikage didn't say anything more.

He knew he wasn't good at thinking, so he just listened to whatever Yuzuru Uchiha said.

"Yuzuru, what are your plans for the next step?"

“Our next target is the Land of Hot Springs. I’m leaving ahead of schedule. You can start arranging the personnel to take over the Land of Hot Springs now.”

After speaking with the Third Raikage, Uchiha Yuzuru immediately activated Kamui and disappeared from the spot.

When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the Hot Spring Village in the Land of Hot Springs.

Unlike the small villages of the past, after overthrowing the rule of the daimyo, the ninjas of the Land of Hot Water moved to the capital of the Land of Hot Water.

The leader of the Tang Ren tribe lived in the former daimyo's residence.

Outside the main hall in the center of the Daimyo's mansion, Uchiha Yuzuru's figure appeared out of thin air.

Hearing the commotion coming from inside, Uchiha Yuzuru pushed open the door and went in.

Inside the main hall, several Tang Ren were kneeling on the ground, watching the dance of a dozen or so women in the center of the hall.

Fresh fruit and meat snacks were laid out on the table in front of them for them to eat and drink.

Upon seeing Uchiha Yuzuru walk in, the several ninja in the hot springs were taken aback at first, then asked with displeasure, "Who are you?"

"Uchiha Yuzuru".

"what?!"

Upon hearing the name Uchiha Yuzuru, the hot spring ninjas all stood up in shock, one of them even knocking over the table in front of him, spilling the food all over the floor.

The leader of the Tang Ren tribe swallowed hard, trying to keep his voice calm: "W-what are you doing here?"

Uchiha Yuzuru slowly walked up to him and said, "I'm here on behalf of the Land of Lightning to announce something to you."

"whats the matter?"

"From now on, the territory of the Land of Hot Water will belong to our Land of Lightning."

Although they had already guessed that Uchiha Yuzuru wouldn't come knocking on their door for no reason, what he said still made the pupils of the hot spring ninja present shrink.

Uchiha Yuzuru's tone left no room for negotiation, as if he were stating something that was perfectly natural.

But even if the Land of Lightning is powerful, it doesn't mean it can seize all of the Land of Hot Springs' territory with just a few words...

This is absolutely unreasonable!

Chapter 138 I strive to gain power, not to reason with people.

"Um, can we talk about this?"

The leader of the Tang Ninja looked at Uchiha Yuzuru cautiously.

After overthrowing the rule of the daimyo, they became the masters of the Land of Hot Springs.

It's really hard to accept that we've only enjoyed this little bit of time before having to hand over the Land of Hot Springs to others.

"Oh? What do you want to discuss?"

Uchiha Yuzuru looked at the leader of the Hot Spring Ninja with curiosity.

Upon hearing this, the leader of the Tang Ren clan smiled and said, "We are willing to become allies of the Land of Lightning and pay tribute to the Land of Lightning every year. What do you think?"

"Not so great. The territory, property, and power of the Land of Hot Springs..." Uchiha Yuzuru clenched his fist, "I want it all!"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, the smile on the face of the leader of the Yu Ninja disappeared, replaced by a gloomy expression.

Doesn't this mean that if they agree to Uchiha Yuzuru's demands, they will lose everything they have now?

This leaves them no way out; they're even more ruthless than bandits.

Thinking of this, the leader of the Tang Ninja said in a deep voice, "This concerns the entire Land of Tang, and our decision needs to be carefully discussed. I cannot give you an answer in a short time."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a pair of ominous, scarlet eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the leader of the Tang Ninja saw a colossal demon statue, hundreds of meters tall, easily destroy the capital of the Land of Tang.

A large number of Cloud Village ninja stormed into the Land of Hot Springs and killed all those who resisted.

The entire Land of Hot Springs was ravaged by war, all the hot spring ninjas were killed, and the Land of Hot Springs ultimately fell into the hands of the Land of Lightning.

The hellish scene sent a chill down the spine of the Tang Ren leader.

Especially that demon statue, the sense of oppression was just too strong.

"If you remain stubborn and do not see the truth, what you just saw will become a reality."

Now tell me your answer.

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's voice, the leader of the Yu Ninja clan snapped out of his daze.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling his legs go weak.

Possessing the strength of an elite Jonin, he has always been very confident in his power.

However, in front of Uchiha Yuzuru, the leader of the Yu Ninja felt like a toddler learning to walk, completely powerless to resist.

Reason told him that he should immediately agree to Uchiha Yuzuru's conditions, but his greed made him want to struggle a little longer.

"If you wage war to seize territory, it will surely arouse the hostility of other countries."

"And it's a bit unreasonable to ask us to hand over everything without any reason..."

Before the leader of the Tang Ren tribe could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his neck, followed by a dizzying sensation and his eyelids becoming increasingly heavy.

In the final moments before darkness descended, the leader of the Tang ninja clan saw a headless corpse fall to the ground with a thud.

Isn't this his body?

"what!!!"

Seeing Uchiha Yuzuru cut off the head of the ninja leader, the dozen or so dancers huddled together in a corner in fear.

The remaining few Tang Ren were equally horrified.

Their leader was an elite Jonin, and he was killed like a chicken?

After scanning the crowd with his gaze, Uchiha Yuzuru flicked the blood droplets off his longsword.

"I worked so hard to gain this power, not so I could reason with you."

"You must all be the leaders of Yu Ninja Village. Now answer my question: submit or... die."

As soon as Uchiha Yuzuru finished speaking, several Yuzuru ninja immediately knelt on the ground and prostrated themselves: "Lord Yuzuru, we are willing to follow all your arrangements."

Although relinquishing power is a painful thing, one's own life is the most important thing.

Even their leader was killed so easily, how could they dare to say anything more?

“Good. In a few days, ninjas from Kumogakure will come to take over your duties. Prepare all your documents and materials in advance.”

Taking over a country out of thin air can lead to a tangled mess of issues that requires considerable effort and time to unravel.

With the cooperation of the original leaders, the task could be accomplished much more efficiently, which is why Uchiha Yuzuru did not kill all of these hot spring ninja.

Seeing that they were willing to cooperate obediently, Uchiha Yuzuru withdrew his killing intent and instead asked, "Does your Land of Hot Water have an organization called the Jashin Cult?"

"The Cult of Evil God?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, the several ninjas exchanged glances and then shook their heads in unison: "Lord Yuzuru, we have never heard of the Jashin Cult."

Seeing the confused expressions on their faces, Uchiha Yuzuru didn't ask any further questions.

In the original work, Jashin-kyo is a sect in the Land of Hot Springs that worships an evil god. Hidan of the Akatsuki organization obtained immortality through a ritual of Jashin-kyo.

Therefore, Yuzuru Uchiha was still somewhat curious about the evil god.

"Lord Yuzuru, we will send someone to inquire right now."

"no need."

Uchiha Yuzuru shook his head, rejecting the suggestion from the hot spring ninja.

Since there is no news about the evil god cult, he doesn't want to interfere too much.

After all, his target was that mysterious evil god, and revealing his intentions prematurely might cause some trouble.

In the ninja world, besides ninjas who cultivate chakra, there are many other forces.

For example, sacred sites like Mount Myoboku, Shikkotsu Forest, and Yongchi Cave.

The three sacred sites are respectively governed by the Great Toad Immortal, the Slug Immortal, and the White Snake Immortal, each possessing its own unique lineage.

The Great Toad Sage existed during the time of the Sage of Six Paths and played a crucial role in the Sage of Six Paths' sealing of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Although there are no records of the Slug Sage and the White Snake Sage fighting each other, they should be no less powerful than the Great Toad Sage.

Besides these, there are also evil gods, the god of death...

According to Uchiha Yuzuru's speculation, these should be native factions that existed in the ninja world before Kaguya Otsutsuki's arrival.

The original work provides very little information about these forces, so in this respect, Uchiha Yuzuru does not have the advantage that transmigrators typically possess.

Before acquiring sufficient power, and as long as these forces don't cause trouble, Uchiha Yuzuru doesn't intend to have much interaction with them.

After thinking for a while, Uchiha Yuzuru slowly came back to his senses.

Seeing the ninja still kneeling on the ground, Uchiha Yuzuru said indifferently, "You all go about your business, don't worry about me."

The ninja breathed a sigh of relief and immediately fled the main hall as if escaping.

Uchiha Yuzuru glanced at the dancers who were terrified and gave up on the idea of ​​letting them continue performing.

"Never mind, let's go soak in the hot springs."

Chapter 139 Tsunade

The Land of Hot Springs is a country with a thriving tourism industry, especially famous in the ninja world for its hot springs. Coupled with its unique geographical location and mild climate, the Land of Hot Springs attracts a large number of tourists from all over the ninja world every year.

On this basis, the sex industry in the Land of Hot Springs is very developed, with various izakayas, casinos, hot spring inns, red-light districts, etc.

It has everything.

Looking across the entire ninja world, perhaps only Tanabata Street in the Land of Fire can compare to it.

"Would you like something to eat, sir?"

"Come in and have some fun, sir. I guarantee you'll want to stay forever."

"Hey buddy, if you want to get rich overnight, come try your luck. You might just win more money than you could ever earn in your entire life."

As Uchiha Yuzuru walked down the street, he was surrounded by various solicitations, and there were even people performing acrobatics in the street, which would occasionally draw cheers from the audience.

After watching for a while, Uchiha Yuzuru found it rather boring.

In this world of extraordinary powers, acrobatics seems to have lost much of its charm.

After casually tossing down some money, Uchiha Yuzuru continued wandering forward.

Suddenly, a small stall caught his eye.

"Sugar-coated haws?"

Uchiha Yuzuru never expected to see candied hawthorns here; he used to love them in his past life.

Unlike most people, he doesn't like hawthorn berries; he only likes candied yam.

Eating as he walked, Uchiha Yuzuru arrived at the edge of the capital, where there was a large hot spring inn.

It not only has an open-air hot spring, but also provides accommodation for guests.

After booking a room, Uchiha Yuzuru went straight to the hot spring pool.

The steaming heat continued to rise, and the hot spring water in the pool was crystal clear.

As Uchiha Yuzuru sat down, he felt a tingling sensation throughout his body.

This feels so good, I haven't had a bath like this in ages.

It's a pity that this shop doesn't offer other services, otherwise it would be even more enjoyable to get a back massage or a foot massage.
