Konoha: From Aburame to God.

Chapter 128: The Kingdom of Wind

Human hearts are more dangerous than yellow sands. What a bad place!

Tesla came to the capital of the Kingdom of Wind, stood on the yellow sand, and looked at the place where the Daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind was from afar.

He sighed when he saw the civilians wandering around the edge of the oasis because they were unable to pay the entrance fee.

Then, Tesla had to pay an expensive entrance fee to enter the largest oasis in the Kingdom of Wind.

The Kingdom of Wind has a large territory, but most of it is barren desert with flying sand and harsh environment.

In people's impression, the Kingdom of Wind is a country located in the desert and is extremely poor.

But in fact, the Kingdom of Wind is not entirely like this.

Although the land in the Kingdom of Wind is seriously desertified, the vast land always gives birth to a miracle of nature - an oasis.

In addition to the oasis, there are abundant metal mineral resources under the yellow sand of the Wind Kingdom, and the economy is very developed.

A big part of the reason why Luo Sha was able to serve as the Fourth Kazekage was that he was able to extract gold from the yellow sand and then exchange it for money.

Even though the Daimyo of the Wind Country cut military spending, Rasa alone was able to barely maintain the operation of the Sand Village, which shows how rich the metal mineral resources of the Wind Country are.

The land where the capital of the Wind Country is located is the largest oasis in the entire Wind Country. The land of the Sand Village is not as good as this capital.

"Tesla, this time when you meet the daimyo, you have to find a way to get the daimyo's approval. Even if you have to give up some benefits, that's fine."

"Yabura has already led the troops of the River Country to retreat and is on his way back to the village. The situation is extremely critical. We must take down the Fifth Kazekage before Yebura arrives."

Jing was doing Tesla's work intentionally or unintentionally. He knew a long time ago that the Daimyo of the Wind Country had the idea of ​​cutting the military spending of the Sand Village.

I'm afraid it won't be easy to pass the Daimyo test this time.

Inside the residence of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind.

"My Lord, Elder Jingdu has come to see you with the new Fifth Kazekage, Tesla."

Tesla has not yet been elected as the Fifth Kazekage, but this will not stop Jingdu from deciding on the title of the Fifth Kazekage in advance.

After the Daimyo of the Land of Wind agrees, he will return to the Sand Village in the name of the Daimyo of the Land of Wind to take up the post of the Fifth Kazekage.

It can be said that he got something for nothing.

The Daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind had an abundance of resources in the capital, which led to an overnutrition. He also had someone to take care of his daily life and hardly exercised, so he looked a little bloated.

Hearing the retainer's report, the daimyo of the Wind Country sneered, "Didn't the Sand Village start a war? How come you have time to pay me a visit?"

The Daimyo of the Wind Country was very dissatisfied with the Sand Village, especially because Rasa was using the war to erode his interests.

At the beginning, the Daimyo of the Wind Country had clearly stated that he did not want to go to war.

But the Sand Village seemed not to have heard it. Under the leadership of Luo Sha, they expanded their army when they wanted to, took resources when they wanted, and even occupied and mined mines privately.

He simply didn't take the name of the Wind Country seriously at all.

The Sand Village felt that they had the resources, so they declared war on Konoha, but were defeated.

It also caused the Daimyo of the Wind Country to lose face in front of other daimyos. How despicable.

Since the Sand Village feels that it has grown strong enough, it needs to give the Sand Ninjas a good beating to make them aware of the existence of this daimyo.

Let's start by reducing the military spending of the Sand Village.

"Let them in."

The Daimyo of the Wind Country made up his mind and spoke lazily.

"Your Excellency Daimyo, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, unfortunately died in this war. This is the current Fifth Kazekage, Tesla." Jingdu said with a gentle expression.

The Daimyo of the Wind Country shook the folding fan in his hand and said, "The Sand Ninja really disappoints me. At the beginning, Luosha stood in front of me and vowed that he could win this war."

"But in the end, the Sand Village was defeated, and even Rasa died on the battlefield."

Tesla stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Daimyo, I'm sorry that the Sand Village did not help you gain benefits this time."

The daimyo smiled slightly and closed his folding fan. He was very satisfied that the Fifth Kazekage Tesla had a clear understanding of the positioning of the Sand Village.

"Tesla, I hope you can build the village well, and don't be like your predecessors, who only think about war. They even frantically plundered the resources of the Wind Country in order to start a war."

"You have to know that these resources are used to maintain the stability of Wind Country. Once involved in the war, the citizens of Wind Country will fall into a crisis of insufficient resources."

"I have discussed with other daimyo and decided to cut the funding for Sand Village. We will also sign a ceasefire agreement with Konoha."

The Daimyo of the Wind Country said this and looked at Tesla, waiting for his reaction.

Tesla said without fear:
"Dai-myo, if you reduce the military budget of the Sand Village, the other four ninja villages will take the opportunity to develop. When the gap in strength reaches a certain level, the Sand Village will not be able to resist the invasion of other villages, let alone take the initiative to start a war."

"Moreover, if the armistice agreement was useful, then there would be no war after the First Kazekage attended the Five Kage Conference convened by Hashirama Senju and signed a peace agreement."

"We can discuss and sign a ceasefire agreement, and we can even accept some of Konoha's unequal treaties, but military spending cannot be reduced and must even be increased!"

When Daimyo heard what Tesla said, he frowned and looked very funny under the influence of the fat.

"Damiyo, I don't know if you understand the current situation in the ninja world, but I still need to explain it."

The Daimyo of the Wind Country had a blank expression on his face, waiting for Tesla's explanation.

"Now, Konoha is fighting one against four, and has defeated the Sand Ninja and the Rock Ninja, and the losses are not great. The Mist Ninja and the Cloud Ninja will not be able to hold out for long. It can be said that Konoha has basically won the Third Ninja World War."

"Isn't that better? Since Konoha is so strong, I will entrust the mission of the Wind Country to Konoha. I believe Konoha will complete it well."

The Daimyo of the Wind Country said nonchalantly.

"That is to say, the Fire Nation now has the power to defeat the Four Great Nations, or even... the power to annex the Four Great Nations."

The Daimyo of Wind Country's face froze and he became serious. He was a very selfish person, but once the position of Daimyo was involved, his mind immediately became smart.

"If Konoha attacks the Kingdom of Wind, I can tell you responsibly that the Sand Village cannot stop it, and neither can other ninja villages. It all depends on whether Konoha has the determination."

"What we can do is to show our strength so that Konoha will be cautious, and then take advantage of this last period of time given by God out of pity to the Wind Country to develop rapidly."

Tesla calmly stated this fact, which made the Daimyo of the Wind Country worried.

"Konoha's strength is unique among the five major ninja villages. It can be said that only the four major ninja villages can barely suppress Konoha together."

"If at this time, the funding for Sand Village is cut, and Konoha sees an opportunity for the Wind Country, I believe the Fire Country Daimyo would not mind allowing his territory to grow even larger."

When the Daimyo of the Wind Country heard what Tesla said, his face turned very ugly.

The one country, one village system was very beneficial to the daimyo, as it allowed ninjas to remain ninjas and daimyo to remain daimyo, ensuring the daimyo's safety and status.

Generally speaking, daimyo would not take the initiative to undermine this system.

But if there is a possibility of annexation, the Daimyo of the Wind Country cannot ensure that the Daimyo of the Fire Country will not be tempted.

Because if the Daimyo of the Wind Country has a chance, he will not give up.

Although the daimyos of each country were related by blood, they would not die even if they were annexed, but they would not have the wealth and glory they have today.

But between living under someone else's roof and being the only one in power, everyone knows the choice.
