Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

"Such a large amount of money is not a small amount. How can we carry it with us?"

Shi He, who had recovered some of his strength, wanted to get the benefit of door-to-door delivery, but they did not bring much money on this trip, so they could only stare blankly.

The other people also had expressions of agreement. After all, who would go out with so much money these days?

"I'll pay! I have money!"

However, there are always people who stand out from the crowd. A man with a wig emerged from the crowd, made a path, and then Bai Lian, with eyes full of wisdom, slowly walked out, holding a storage scroll tightly in his hand, with a look of pain written all over his old face.

Before setting off, the First Mizukage carried all of the funds of the Hidden Mist Village on his body, in order to prevent the Hidden Mist Village from being unethical and taking advantage of the situation to steal from the village during the talks.

"Lord Mizukage is so arrogant!"

Uchiha Gin's eyes lit up immediately. He didn't expect that someone could really bring enough money. He immediately put on a smile, rubbed his hands and dodged.
"Here, there are 100 billion taels in here. Count them and return the extra to me."

After taking the scroll and hearing the words of the First Mizukage, Uchiha Gin shook his head and indicated that there was still shipping cost for one more.

"Well, I'm afraid I can't return it, Mizukage-sama. The shipping fee for a tailed beast is 10 billion, and your money is just enough~"

"you"

Bai Lian was so angry that she almost fell over, but the goods were in someone else's hands, so she could only accept it.

Uchiha Gin knew that the Hidden Mist Village was in urgent need of the Tailed Beasts, so he dared to ask for 10 billion.

Weighing the storage scroll in his hand, he turned to look at Tobirama Senju who had a grim expression on his face, and threw the scroll containing 100 billion over to him.

"I don't like money, and I don't like counting money. You are so fast at everything, so I'll leave the counting to you~"

"Snapped!"

Seeing the scroll flying towards him, Tobirama Senju caught it subconsciously with a confused look on his face. Hearing Uchiha Gin's teasing voice, he was so angry that he was about to throw the scroll back, but when he thought about the 100 billion taels contained in it, he finally became a slave to money.

"Of course, I am the fastest person in Konoha."

It’s just money, I’ll count you to death!

After saying that, he sat down and transformed himself into a ruthless money checking machine.

"Wu, go and tell them to go back to the village to get the money, and send more people."

Seeing that his old rival had already paid, Shi He, who was worried that he might be a step behind, looked up and gave an order to Wu behind him.

"Student Xiao Ai, go inform the village and ask them to send the money over as soon as possible."

The first Raikage also instructed his follower to act quickly.

"Brother Yin, it looks like we have to stay for a few more days~"

It takes time to convey the message, and it also takes time to raise money. So it would naturally take a few days to go back and forth.

"It's okay. Everyone, just take a good rest these few days. It won't be too late for us to sign the agreement after all the tailed beasts have been handed over."

Senju Hashirama, who had reaped a lot of rewards, was naturally very happy. He waved to the shadows, indicating that he was not in a hurry.

The rest of the people all agreed with a smile, except for the Sand Village which gained nothing. Reito's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and his expression seemed to be about to go berserk.

"Whoo~"

Reito was about to explode, but he glanced at the people present and finally gave up. He didn't want the already struggling Sand Village to become a thorn in the eyes of the other major countries.
Now each family has at least two tailed beasts, and their previous advantages are gone. It is better for them to endure for the time being and take things step by step.

The Tailed Beast Exhibition was over, and the Kages of several major countries returned to their own bases one after another. Before leaving, Raikage Ai gave Uchiha Gin a wink, and Curly immediately understood.

Uchiha Madara and Senju Tobirama are still stationed on the side of the tailed beasts, but they will no longer glare at each other.

"Swish, swish, swish~"

Tobirama Senju, who was diligently counting the huge amount of money in the scroll, had bloodshot eyes and had no intention of supervising Uchiha Madara.

"Baimao, count quickly. If the number is correct, I should go deliver the goods~"

Previously, Uchiha Gin assigned the task of delivering the goods to Uchiha Madara, and promised that if the task was completed satisfactorily, the previous payment for building repairs and the fee for obtaining intelligence on the tailed beasts would be written off.

"Ugh~ Shut up!"

How many did I count just now?
The rhythm was interrupted by Uchiha Madara's voice. Senju Tobirama's eyes were full of murderous aura, and he wished he could tear the guy in front of him into pieces.

"Boom boom!~"

It was about to get dark, and Uchiha Gin was wandering alone on the street. According to the address left by the first Raikage, he turned around and finally found the station of the black laborers.

But why is it different from the inn I imagined?

【Heaven and Earth】

Uchiha Gin looked at the suspicious shop with ambiguous lighting in front of him. After confirming that the name was correct, his lifeless eyes became sharp. After looking left and right, he quickly went in.

However, at the corner of the street, a few short figures happened to pass by and saw Uchiha Gin's behavior clearly.

"Hey~ This guest looks unfamiliar. Is this your first time here~"

As soon as he entered the room, Uchiha Gin saw the mama-san guarding the door. Although she was old, she was dressed very appropriately and still had some charm. This should be good news for grandma fans. He, who had been somewhat expectant, was instantly disappointed.

Uchiha Gin pouted with some disappointment, looking at the menu on the wall, and then he realized that this was a 24-hour foot massage shop.

Not only are there massage services, but also food and accommodation. No wonder the illegal laborers choose to stay here. It's really a one-stop service for eating, drinking and having fun.

"It's the first time. Is this formal?"

After scanning the project list, Uchiha Gin did not find any special services, so he continued to ask,
"Absolutely formal~"

"Tsk!"

Disappointed, so disappointed.

"I don't know what service you need, sir?"

"I'm looking for someone."

Forget it, if there is no special service, it is more important to do the business.

"Who is the guest looking for?"

Mama-san looked at Uchiha Gin's figure and clothes and roughly guessed that he was a ninja. Could he be here to sting the law?
"Hey~ Brother Yin, here!"

Just as Uchiha Gin was about to describe the image of the Kurokaku, the voice of the first Raikage came from above his head. He then looked up and found that they lived on the second floor.

"Oh~ So you are Mr. Ai's guest, I am so sorry for the inconvenience~"

When Mama-san saw that Uchiha Gin was a friend of the first Raikage, her attitude suddenly became very enthusiastic. She bent down with a smile and led the way for him.

"Forehead"

This confused Uchiha Gin. Could it be that this store was opened by the Hidden Cloud Village?
Following the mama-san upstairs, I saw the first Raikage coming forward enthusiastically, but the mama-san in front of Uchiha Gin became a little shy, with no trace of her previous demeanor.

"Could it be."

Noticing that there was something wrong with Mama-san's eyes, Uchiha Gin's pupils immediately dilated. Looking at the somewhat pale-faced First Raikage, he couldn't help but imagine some exciting scenes in his mind.

It turns out that Brother Ai likes to chew tree bark.

"Hey, beauty, I'll come find you tonight."

After flirting with Mama-san for a few words, the First Raikage pulled the dazed Uchiha Gin over and walked into the guest room.

"Huh~ Brother Ai's taste is quite unique."

Sitting in front of the first Raikage, Uchiha Gin had a very complicated expression. After all, people's sexual preferences cannot be generalized. He didn't understand it, but he respected it.

"Women are like fine wine, the older they are, the better they taste~"

I agree with this statement, but hasn’t your wine been stored in the cellar for too long?
You're not nicknamed Soldier Boy, are you?

Uchiha Gin is not without mature women lovers, but he really can't bring himself to go for one as familiar as the mama-san just now.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, Brother Yin, I'm still waiting for you to answer my questions~"

The Raikage Ai took out the gray box that Uchiha Gin had given him before and put it on the table. His frown was full of doubts.
Before Uchiha Gin arrived, he had been studying this thing and found that the material of this thing was unknown. No matter how hard he tried, he could not damage it at all.

"This is a ninja tool called a driver."

Reaching out to pick up the gray driver, and examining the crooked lines on it, Uchiha Gin's eyes flashed with an inexplicable color.
"So it's a ninja tool. I wonder what the connection is between it and the tailed beasts?"

Just as the First Raikage had expected, this thing was indeed not simple. Since Uchiha Gin told him that this driver was related to the tailed beasts, it must have its magical uses.

"Remember the card I gave you?"

Putting down the driver, Uchiha Gin said to the First Raikage,
"Here it is."

Raikage Ai cooperated very well and took out two golden cards from his arms and handed them over.

After receiving the card, Uchiha Gin did not introduce it further. He picked up the Tailed Beast Card of the Two-Tails and inserted it directly into the card slot on the side of the driver.
"Another trip. Zila device Zila~"

There was a sharp crackling sound, and the Tailed Beast Card that Uchiha Gin had just inserted into the card slot was ejected.

The drive in my hand even made an electronically synthesized sound after ejecting the card.

"out!"

"Sure enough, I can't use it~"

Uchiha Gin pushed the driver over with a sigh, his disappointment evident on his face.

"This is?"

This operation left the First Raikage, who was a spectator, confused and full of questions.

"Brother Ai, this driver is the product of my hard work. Anyone who wears it can borrow power from the tailed beasts and transform into a tailed beast to fight."

"The tailed beasts are coming to fight?"

"That's right, the warriors who use the power of the tailed beasts, I call them Tailed Beasts!"

Uchiha Gin's expression was very serious, and he stared at the driver on the table with sharp eyes, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.

"By borrowing the power of the tailed beast, wouldn't it mean that a single person can possess the destructive power of a tailed beast?"

Unexpectedly, the driver in front of him was so magical. The First Raikage swallowed and moistened his dry throat.

During the day, he had already witnessed the power of the tailed beasts. Even the Kage of a village could not easily suppress a tailed beast.

"That's right, but..."

Uchiha Gin's eyes flickered, and then he shook his head as if sighing.
"but what?"

The first Raikage remembered scratching his head and couldn't help but urge him,
"The conditions for using the driver are very strict. Not just any cat or dog can become a tailed beast to fight."

"Appreciate further details."

Uchiha Gin first shook the golden card in his hand.
"First, you need to have a Tailed Beast Card. This is a bond that uses the power of the Tailed Beast. The Tailed Beast Card will attract the Tailed Beast to fight."

"Secondly, you have to gain the recognition of the tailed beast, or... defeat the tailed beast head-on."

Hearing this, the First Raikage frowned. From the performance of the Four-Tails during the day, it was not difficult to see that the tailed beasts were extremely hostile to humans. How could one gain recognition from the tailed beasts when they couldn't even talk to them?

Defeating the tailed beast head-on is a relatively realistic option.

“What is the difference between these two approaches?”

"The difference is huge. If you fight a tailed beast that has been recognized by the tailed beast, you can use the power of the tailed beast 100%. If you fight a tailed beast that has transformed and defeated the tailed beast, there will be many restrictions. Every time you borrow a bit of power, you will be baptized by the violent chakra of the tailed beast. Over time, there will be a risk of turning black and going berserk."

"Huh~ So harsh."

"Another point is that the transformation of the tailed beasts is not without cost. Every battle will consume the vitality of the transformer, so unless it is absolutely necessary, never transform and fight." It means that people with weak constitutions cannot do this~
"Ah this."

Looking down at the driver on the table, the First Raikage had a complicated expression on his face. It seemed that after he returned, he would have to start selecting the tailed beasts to fight. He didn't know whether he would be able to see the tailed beasts belonging to the Hidden Cloud Village fight during his lifetime.

"Phew~ Thank you, Brother Gin, for the ninja tools."

With superb ninja skills and the powerful destructive power of the tailed beasts, and the ability to use the power of the tailed beasts to fight, other ninja villages must be jealous.

"We are all brothers~"

Anyway, it's just a trial version of the driver, and the Hidden Cloud Village can be used as a guinea pig to see if there are any flaws in this thing.

"By the way, Brother Gin, don't you keep a tailed beast to keep order in Konoha?"

After solemnly retracting the driver, the First Raikage suddenly thought of a question and asked it out loud.

When Uchiha Gin heard this, he rolled his eyes and replied casually,

"Tailed beasts? We don't need them. The Hokage is the God of Tailed Beasts. Any tailed beast that sees him will tuck its tail between its legs. And we have our eldest cousin. His Sharingan is the nemesis of tailed beasts. As long as the two of them are here, the Fire Country will not be intimidated by tailed beasts."

"That's right, that's right"

The first Raikage, with a somewhat subtle expression, smiled awkwardly and nodded, but he had other thoughts in his mind.

"Brother Ai, we have finished talking about business, I don't know what we talked about during the day, washing feet"

After waiting for a long time, seeing the subtle expression of the First Raikage, Uchiha Gin thought he wanted to renege on his debt, so he got straight to the point and said,

"Oh? Wash it, of course!"

"Is it formal?"

If it was formal, he would turn around and leave.

"Hey, do I look like a normal person to you?"

"Gkd!"

"Don't worry, I'll go ask Technician No. 36 if he's on duty~"

"Very good, very good~"

While the First Raikage was away, Uchiha Ginji was rubbing his hands. He had never enjoyed this kind of informal foot bath before, and he didn't know what it felt like.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I hope to get a thin waist and a nice butt~"

"Oh? What else?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded beside his ear, but Uchiha Gin, who was in a midsummer night dream, had already lost consciousness.
"I want a big Lai Lai! A barefoot big Lai Lai!"

"You're pretty good at playing, aren't you?"

The voice sounded again.
"No, I'm not."

Uchiha Gin was about to answer again when he suddenly shuddered and his back was soaked with cold sweat. He had already recognized the voice.

Swallowing hard, Uchiha Gin put on a serious expression and turned around with a normal look.
"Go on, keep talking?"

Standing behind him was none other than Uchiha Gin's childhood sweetheart, the yandere girl Uchiha Hikaru. She had a smile on her face, without a trace of anger on her face, but the bulging blue veins on her forehead and the black aura emanating from behind her were chilling.

"Xiao Guang, you misunderstood. I'm here to discuss business."

With his eyes emitting the light of righteousness and his expression like a sage, Uchiha Gin tried to find a way to survive.

"Oh?"

Who do you think would believe me if I come to a foot massage parlor like this to discuss serious matters?
"It's true. I guarantee it in the name of my ancestors."

This is Uchiha Gin's usual routine, but my cousin won't mind anyway.

"Okay, I'll trust you for once. Let's go home early after we're done."

Not noticing any clues, the girl slowly withdrew her murderous intent. It seemed that the title of eldest cousin was still useful.

"Brother Yin! Technician No. 36 is free. I've given you two hours. Go change your clothes quickly~"

Just when Uchiha Gin thought he had escaped, the rough voice of the First Raikage suddenly came from outside the door, causing Uchiha Hikaru, who was about to leave, to stop.

"No! Xiaoguang, listen to my explanation!"

The girl's eyes flashed red, and the cherry-red hatchet fell quietly.

"Since you are not honest, just cut it off."

"oh~NO!"

in a few days

Countless unfamiliar ninjas came in droves, not only bringing huge amounts of money for goods, but also boosting Konoha's economy.

It was still the familiar conference room. The Five Kage Rings were sitting at the conference table, and their followers were still standing behind them, but the person behind Senju Hashirama had changed.

"The number is no problem."

After counting the payment for goods from Iwagakure and Kumogakure, Tobirama Senju, with a sallow face and dark circles under his eyes, stood up and said to his brother that he had vomited from counting money these days and he didn't want to touch money again in his life.
"Haha, thank you for your hard work, Tobirama~"

Senju Hashirama nodded, and then took out the written peace agreement.

"Everyone, please sign~"

The other Kages also signed the peace agreement without hesitation. When it was the turn of the Sand Village, Reito paused and did not sign immediately. Instead, he looked at the smiling Senju Hashirama with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Master Fengying, is there any problem?"

"It's not a big problem. We, the Wind Country, are also a country that desires peace."

The Sand Village didn't gain any benefits from this meeting, so naturally they wouldn't be willing to sign the agreement.

"But it doesn't matter."

"Hokage-sama, you also know that our Wind Country is full of yellow sand and lacks supplies."

"No way you want money!"

Senju Hashirama was still listening attentively when Senju Tobirama jumped out. Although he didn't want to touch the money anymore, no one could take a penny from him.
Several other Kages also began to watch from the sidelines, wanting to see how Konoha would deal with this tough guy Reito.

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. We don't want any money."

Reito shook his head and set his eyes on Senju Hashirama. His eyes moved slightly.
"Then what do you want?"

The other party's eyes made Senju Hashirama feel a little uncomfortable, and he immediately asked,
"I want you, Mr. Hokage."

"Wow~~~"

Before Liedou finished speaking, there was a sudden booing from the surroundings, making the atmosphere a little weird.
"Lord Fengying, I am a family man!"

Senju Hashirama was a little angry. He didn't expect that a guy like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes would covet his body.

"What are you talking about? I want Mr. Hokage to help our Wind Country control the wind and sand."

With a puzzled look on his face, Reito frowned and explained,
"Control the sandstorm?"

"Well, I heard that the Hokage's Wood Release is very magical and can create a large forest in the blink of an eye."

After several exchanges with Konoha's spies stationed in the Wind Country, Reito and others had already learned about the magic of Hashirama Senju's Wood Release, and then took the opportunity of signing a peace agreement to make this not-too-excessive request.

Every bit you can grab counts. In the Kingdom of Wind, green is much more valuable than gold.

"Hey, leave it to me!"

When he heard that it was a good deed, Senju Hashirama naturally took the lead.

"On behalf of the countless civilians of the Wind Country who have suffered from the wind and sand, I would like to thank His Excellency the Hokage for his great kindness."

I'm going to drain you dry and dye the entire Wind Kingdom green!
"Wait! My elder brother is busy with government affairs and has no time to help you with sand control."

Senju Tobirama was a shrewd man, so he could see through Reito's little tricks and refused immediately.

"Foredoor, this is a good thing~"

"shut up!"

Having heard that Senju Tobirama was a difficult guy, Reito immediately frowned.
"It won't delay Hokage-sama for too long."

"Impossible. Who knows how many forests you will ask Big Brother to create?"

Judging from Big Brother's personality, he will definitely lend a helping hand when he sees suffering civilians. Don't let him die of exhaustion in the desert by then.

"In that case, we won't sign it."

For the sake of the country, Reito started to cheat again. He was too competent as the Kazekage.

"Tobirama!"

Senju Hashirama was anxious, peace was just around the corner.

"Well, I can only help you control the sandstorm in one city."

After weighing the pros and cons, Senju Tobirama finally gave in.
"Then it's the capital of the Kingdom of Wind!"

In the entire Kingdom of Wind, the capital is the largest. It would be a waste not to take advantage of this opportunity.

"impossible!"

A map of the Wind Country appeared in his hand at some point, and Senju Tobirama directly drew an X at the location of the Wind Country's capital.

"That's it."

"Forget about that, let's just choose this place called Loulan!"

After carefully examining the map in his hand, Senju Tobirama pointed at one of the places and spoke, then opened his scarlet eyes and stared at the gloomy-looking First Kazekage.
Anyway, the initiative is in Konoha's hands, they can choose whichever they want.

"Loulan?"

Liedou, who was about to refuse, suddenly noticed that Shamen standing behind him was a little emotional. He turned his head in confusion and found that his capable subordinate had a tangled look on his face, with pleading eyes.
By the way, Shamen is the Loulan people.

Liedou suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Shamen acted so out of character, because Loulan was his hometown.

"What do you think, Samana?"

"Master Reito."

The monk was filled with desire, but he couldn't open his mouth no matter what. Loulan was not a strategic location, and there was nothing outstanding about it except the dragon veins. But it was his hometown, and who wouldn't want his hometown to rise?

"Okay, Loulan~"

After all, Reito is not a devil, and Shamon is his favorite candidate for Kazekage. If he does not choose to govern Loulan this time, the two of them may develop a rift in their hearts, which will be detrimental to the future of the Sand Village.

"Thank you, Master Liedou!"

"Oh?"

Now it was Senju Tobirama's turn to be confused. He deliberately chose an unimportant position, but he didn't expect Reito to agree.

"Well, after a few days, Big Brother will go to that place."

Hearing this, Lie Dou said nothing more and signed his name on the peace agreement.

Since then, the ninja world has ushered in the long-awaited peace, but no one knows how long this peace can last.

Ps: The body won’t lie. Although I thought I had let go of work, my body told me that I was actually very anxious, otherwise I wouldn’t have hemorrhoids, the super big ones.

But to be honest, Mayinglong is really useful. (End of this chapter)
