Chapter 92 The Alliance Between Sunagakure and Amegakure? Hanzo is Not Convinced!
"Since you're here, hurry up and come out!"
Hanzo the Salamander opened his eyes and stared intently at a patch of bushes.
"The new leader of Amegakure?"
A young man slowly moved to the entrance of the cave.
Hanzo frowned slightly, revealing his displeasure, but it was hidden by his breathing mask.
The great powers are too arrogant!
He's supposed to be the leader of the village, yet he sent a young brat to discuss the future!
"Let me introduce myself." The young man folded his back, revealing a puppet: "My name is Chi Qianyang, son of the First Kazekage, and also the son of Elder Chiyo!"
Upon hearing the other person's self-introduction, Hanzo the Salamander's expression softened slightly.
Today's Hanzo no longer holds the title of 'demigod'.
As the leader of a small ninja village, Sunagakure's ability to send a Kage to negotiate suggests they are evenly matched.
"Sunagakure took the initiative to propose negotiations, but refused to come to Amegakure, and finally sent you, a mere brat. What exactly does that mean?"
Chi Qianyang didn't pay attention to Hanzang's expression and replied rather casually:
"It doesn't mean anything; I just don't care about Yu Yin's opinion."
"I've come here today to ask just one question: are you willing to form an alliance with Sunagakure?"
Hanzo the Salamander's breathing became rapid, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and his right hand was already on the handle of his sickle.
"What did you say?!"
He desperately wanted to cooperate with Sunagakure to jointly confront the pressure from Konoha.
Similarly, he also cared about Yu Yin's dignity.
How can a mere young man threaten the dignified leader of Amegakure? Does that mean he'll have to beg for food on his knees?
"What? Lord Hanzo, killing the Hokage's son wasn't enough, you want to kill me, the Kazekage's son, too?"
Chi Qianyang's tone was extremely arrogant, as if he didn't take Hanzo of the Salamander seriously at all.
Upon hearing this, Hanzo the Salamander loosened his grip on the sickle handle.
Having killed the son of the First Hokage, the conflict between Amegakure and Konoha is likely irreconcilable.
I've heard that Konoha is actively mobilizing its army in an attempt to launch a full-scale attack on the Land of Rain. To break this deadlock, he must bring in outside forces to enter the Land of Rain.
There wasn't even a reply from Iwagakure.
He could only try to get help from Sunagakure.
Judging from this attitude, the help from Sunagakure will probably not be of much use.
Hanzo the Salamander was disappointed and sighed inwardly at the village's decline, wondering what could be done about it!
The current situation is not actually caused by Hanzo, nor was the plan to kill Senju Ryuma devised by him.
To put it bluntly, nobody wants Senju Yanagima to die!
It will take time for Hanzo the Salamander to become the leader of Amegakure.
In this process, it is inevitable that there will be hostile ninja groups within the village.
It wasn't easy for Xiao Shinobi Village to cultivate a group of talented people, and Hanzo the Salamander couldn't bear to execute that group of Rain Ninja.
This sowed the seeds of disaster!
Unwilling to accept defeat, the elders rallied their remaining forces and attacked the Hokage's son, Senju Ryūma, attempting to frame Hanzo of the Salamander and lure the outside Konoha Village into the fray, thus buying time for their own forces to develop.
I didn't expect to use too much force!
It's possible that the Rain Ninja's forces were too strong, or perhaps the Konoha ninjas on the mission lacked experience.
After being ambushed, Konoha suffered heavy losses, including the death of Senju Ryuma!
It can't be hidden anymore!
It's completely out of the question now!
War thus took root and, over time, became deeply entrenched.
"That's not what I meant." Hanzo the Salamander walked back to the cave and gestured for Chiyo to follow.
"Sunagakure, how do you plan to cooperate?"
He silently encouraged himself.
Being born in a small country is not a disgrace; only by being flexible and adaptable can one achieve great things!
"Amegakure will cede 70% of its mission quota to hire Sunagakure's ninja forces to occupy the Land of Rain and defend against Konoha's invasion!"
Hanzo the Salamander could hardly believe what he was hearing.
"You mean, the Sand Village forces need to be stationed in the Land of Rain, just for defense, and they have to pay for it?"
"Amegakure also has to cover the military expenses of Sunagakure during the war," Akachi Chiyo added, as if he had just remembered.
"Too deceiving!"
Hanzo the Salamander angrily rebuked, "What do you take the Land of Rain for?"
"A battlefield for easing tensions among the five great nations? Land destroyed during wartime? A gambling table for the five great ninja villages? Think whatever you want!" Chi Qianyang made no attempt to hide his contempt for Amegakure.
If a small ninja village like Sunagakure is willing to help you defend against enemies, you should be grateful and thankful. Why all the nonsense?
In the ninja world, only the Five Great Villages truly practice 'separate meals'; other small countries are merely dishes on the menu!
"you!"
Hanzo the Salamander really wanted to turn on them, but it was pointless.
After observing closely, he understood the kid's confidence.
The reason is that the so-called 'Chi Qianyang' standing in front of him is nothing but a puppet!
Perhaps he can follow the puppet strings to find the real body.
It's useless!
Who knows how many people Sunagakure has been lurking near this brat's main body!
After figuring out the situation, his emotions were stirred up, and Hanzo the Salamander's anger intensified.
I thought he was the son of the Kazekage, but he turned out to be a puppet!
Despicable, utterly despicable!
Hanzo the Salamander scoffed, "Isn't Sunagakure worried that Amegakure will side with Iwagakure?"
Hidden Rocks?
"You're so funny!"
Chi Qianyang sneered, made a hand seal, and the smoke dissipated as he disappeared into the cave.
"Damn Sunagakure, they have no intention of negotiating at all; they're testing us!"
Hanzo the Salamander, now calmer, felt a bit regretful.
He acted too humbly and expressed too much eagerness to form an alliance with Sunagakure.
This sends a bad signal.
Amegakure has suffered heavy losses and desperately needs allies.
This led the other party to mistakenly believe that the situation in Amegakure was very bad.
It's already a small ninja village; if it suffers further heavy losses, there's no point in cooperating with it.
Hanzo the Salamander has realized the truth.
If you can't earn respect on the battlefield, don't expect to earn it through negotiations!
Hanzo the Salamander's eyes turned fierce.
Let's fight then!
Since he began his travels through the ninja world, he has never unleashed his full power!
Let's use it on Konoha for the first time!
Let's forge a glorious future for Amegakure!
Instantaneous movement!
Hanzo the Salamander has disappeared into the cave!
......
At the same time, Hiruzen Sarutobi issued three orders to send troops westward, urging Orochimaru to quell the war!
The first team to set off consisted mainly of a Chunin squad that had graduated about a year ago, along with three sub-teams led by Orochimaru, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and others, each sub-team consisting of seventeen people.
A few days ago, they quickly passed the Chunin Exams and became glorious Chunin, ready to go to the front lines to make their mark (fill the battle lines).
Of course, even if time is of the essence.
The process of forcefully infusing the Will of Fire must not be omitted!
This is the foundation of the village; everything is for the village!
