Pokémon Ninja Scrolls of the Mizukage

Chapter 555 Not enough!
Let’s not talk about the Iwagakure and Sunagakure families for now.

The troops that these two companies sent to the territory of the Rain Country during the Third World War have not shown any intention of withdrawing until now.

It's Konoha himself.

Although due to the tense situation of the war before, and the fact that the Rain Country was not the main battlefield of this Ninja World War, they did not arrange garrisons in the Rain Country early on.

But Jianchuan Ju didn't believe that the old guy Danzo Shimura would not plant Root spies in the Rain Country.

Even considering the old guy's character, there must be quite a few of these spies.

After all, the beginning and end of the Ninja World War only applies to the five major ninja villages.

It is common for the five major ninja villages to 'bully' the other smaller ninja villages.

This is also the reason why Jianchuan Ju had previously suggested to Yahiko to retreat completely, secretly control the Daimyo of the Rain Country, and strengthen control over the entire Rain Country.

With the financial support from the daimyo, a small ninja village like the Hidden Rain Village can continue to maintain rapid development after shrinking.

"Did Yahiko say what he thought?"

Jianchuan Tachibana tilted his head and looked at Nagato who was still waiting for his answer.

Although Nagato told him that Yahiko wanted to seek his opinion and view, the Hidden Rain Village itself would definitely have its own inclination on this matter.

The so-called asking ourselves is just out of consideration to avoid damaging the interests of allies.

Whether it's because of everyone's friendship or because the cooperation between the two sides gives Kirigakure the upper hand, Jianchuan Tachibana will accept Yahiko's kindness.

At this moment, we naturally need to understand Yuyin’s own thoughts.

Nagato hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"The current situation of Rain Village is not very good. Although it has the full support of the daimyo, the pressure from Sand Village and Iwagakure is still very great."

"Earlier, the Kazekage of Sand Village wanted to sign an alliance treaty with the Hidden Rain Village and help the Hidden Rain Village drive out the Hidden Rock Village from the territory of the Rain Country."

When talking about the Sunagakure's 'alliance', Nagato gritted his teeth a little.

Luo Sha naturally couldn't have much good intentions, and the so-called "alliance" was nothing more than being accepted as a dog.

Well, there are many similar alliances around Kirigakure.

After explaining these difficulties, Nagato continued.

"So, Yahiko thinks this is an opportunity, and perhaps it will allow Amegakure to truly have a period of peace and stability."

Upon hearing this, Jianchuan Ju just shook his head without commenting on Yahiko's idea.

As for setting up the base of the maintenance force in the Rain Country and helping the Rain Country to gain a nominally neutral country, all that Jianchuan Ju can think of now is that Konoha wants to use Jiraiya's relationship and its own influence on the Hidden Rain Village to have more say in this force.

Perhaps Minato Namikaze's decision to become Hokage was more motivated by his targeting of the Zero Organization, but if we look at the entire Konoha Village, this voice and influence can do a lot.

Some time ago, Jianchuan Ju had just received information sent back by the "White Zetsu Force".

Konoha has recently sent a lot of spies to the Land of Lightning, either openly or secretly.

Obviously, the last suspicion that the Hidden Cloud Village was the mastermind was rejected by Minato Namikaze himself.

But after all, Kumogakure actually exposed many suspicious points, and Konoha was still wary of them.

And the location of the Rain Country.

Located between the three kingdoms of Fire, Earth, and Wind, Konoha is the strongest among them.

On the contrary, it is far away from the suspected Cloud Village and the now powerful Mist Village under Jianchuan Tachibana, and its influence is relatively weak.

It is indeed a good location for Konoha.

Compared to the relationship between Jiraiya and Yahiko, the secret cooperation between the Mizukage Tachibana Kanegawa and the Hidden Rain Village is equally good. It is still unknown who will take the initiative in the end.

Instead, it was the Hidden Rain Village itself.

What Yahiko hoped to do was to use this incident to become a neutral country and achieve peace within the country?

The Zero Organization has been lurking in the dark for a long time, and there are also the two villages of Iwagakure and Sunagakure in the open.

It is hard to say whether it is peaceful or not just relying on the title of a neutral country.

However, having attracted the attention of so many people in the ninja world, the Hidden Rain Village must forget about its own development. At least the improvement in its military strength will definitely stagnate.

"But this is also Yahiko's own choice. Besides, Akatsuki against Zero? It sounds good."

As the thought flashed through his mind, Jianchuan Ju first signaled Nagato to be patient and spoke slowly.

"Let's go to the Mizukage building first and find a conference room so I can talk to Yahiko in person."

Then he waved to Uchiha Hikaru, who was waiting on the side and was a little bored, and strode towards the Mizukage Building.

When he arrived at the Mizukage Building, he first greeted the elder Yuanshi, and then looked at Nagato with an expectant face. Jianchuan Ju felt a little funny and did not break his promise.

After randomly choosing an office, Nagato connected the communication through the "Slide Body Technique".

After seeing Yahiko's shadow emerge, Jianchuan Tachibana didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

"Nagato has already briefly discussed with me the location selection of the maintenance force and the neutral country. I also understand your thoughts, Yahiko."

"This matter has no loss for our Hidden Mist Village. As an ally, I can agree to this matter and help the Rain Country gain the title of a neutral country."

Seeing Jianchuan Tachibana express his sincerity so directly, a hint of joy immediately appeared on Yahiko's face.

This matter is essentially a game between the five major ninja villages, and the Hidden Rain Village itself has no actual say.

Now that Konoha has brought up the matter and Kirigakure has also expressed its agreement, it can basically be considered a sure thing.

"but."

Before Yahiko could say anything to thank him, his expression tensed up a little after hearing the word "but".

Ignoring Yahiko's rapidly changing expression, Jianchuan Tachibana spoke to himself.

".What reason does Konoha have for making this proposal?"

Upon hearing this, Yahiko felt a little relieved when he saw that Jianchuan Tachibana was only asking a question, and spoke after careful consideration.

"Teacher Jiraiya said that the purpose of establishing the maintenance force is not only to target the Zero Organization hiding in the dark, but also to maintain peace in the ninja world."

"So we, the Hidden Rain Village, will serve as the representative of the small ninja village and take on the tasks of hosting, supervising and mediating."

When Jianchuan Ju heard this reason, he immediately shook his head and laughed.

The representatives of the small ninja villages are directly appointed by the five major ninja villages and are also responsible for supervision and mediation?
It was hard not to make him laugh.

However, after chuckling, Jianchuan Tachibana looked at Yahiko, who was a little confused, with a serious expression and spoke slowly.

"not enough!"

"I will represent the Hidden Mist Village and make this suggestion to Konoha, and then add another one."

"Let the Hidden Rain Village also send out ninjas to join the maintenance team!"
