I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"Who are you?"

Although Onoki already had a premonition, he still needed the other party to introduce themselves.

"My name is Rasa. I am honored to be the Fourth Wind Shadow by the kindness of the people of the Wind Kingdom!"

Rasa bowed to Onoki, who then descended from the sky and bowed slightly to Rasa in accordance with the etiquette of the Land of Earth.

As the shadows of two countries, you should always give each other face, unless the other party also doesn't give you face.

That's right, the one who needs to be specifically criticized is the Kage of the Land of Lightning, who has absolutely no sense of etiquette and is just messing around.

"The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, greets the Fourth Kazekage."

After Ōnoki finished bowing, he nodded again to Rasa.

Immediately afterwards, his gaze turned to the area behind Luo Sha.

"Yo……"

"That's quite a coincidence."

Looking at Chiaki's easily recognizable figure, Onoki said in surprise, "I didn't expect that Konoha's little princess would appear with the Fourth Kazekage."

"Greetings, Third Tsuchikage."

Qianqiu stepped forward, looked at him with a smile, and said, "I also think it's a coincidence that I was able to see you in the Land of Wind."

"Could it be that you, like me, want to stay in the Land of Wind for a while and experience its customs and culture?"

"Little princess, what you said is quite interesting."

With his hands behind his back, Onoki quietly said to Chiaki, "It's not that I can't stay in the Land of Wind, but I'm afraid that if I stay any longer, the Land of Wind will be renamed the Land of Earth."

Based solely on verbal sparring, Onoki stated that he has never been afraid of anyone.

Old ginger is spicier; with so many years of experience in being sarcastic and unpredictable, surely I'm not outdone by time.

"You're really vigorous for your age!"

Chiaki gave him a charmingly disdainful look, then simply turned away and ignored the shameless Onoki.

Onoki chuckled and followed Chiaki's gaze one by one.

Looking around, I realized they were all familiar faces!

"Old lady Chiyo, it's been a long time."

"Old man Onoki, what right do you have to call me an old woman?"

Chiyo looked at Onoki with disdain. Onoki was about the same age as her, but women are always mindful of their age. Chiyo was extremely dissatisfied with Onoki's words.

Onoki ignored Chiyo and looked at Ebizo standing next to her, smiling as he said:

"Isn't this Mr. Ebizo? What brings you to the front lines in person?"

"I'm afraid if I don't come to the front lines soon, you might turn our entire Wind Kingdom upside down."

Ebizo stroked his beard, while Onoki laughed heartily, "How could that be? You have the Fourth Kazekage and the little princess of Konoha backing you up. I wouldn't just ignore them, would I?"

"The main reason I'm here is to discuss our previous agreement..."

As he spoke, Onoki turned his gaze to Nara Shikaku and asked with a puzzled look, "I'm really curious, why did the agreement we signed between the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind end up becoming an alliance between the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire?"

"What do you think, Mr. Nara?"

The ninjas in the think tank are generally addressed with the same title – “Sir”.

As Konoha's chief strategist, Nara Shikaku naturally deserves the same title as Ebizo: "Master".

"cough."

Nara Shikaku clenched his fist and placed it in front of his mouth, clearing his throat. "Yeah, what is it?"

As the instigator of the change in the agreement, Nara Shikaku cannot escape the blame.

"Isn't Lord Onoki being a bit too nosy?"

With one hand on her hip, Chiaki said to Onoki in a haughty tone, "The Land of Wind can sign agreements with whomever it wants. Who says we have to sign agreements with your Land of Earth?"

"Signing an agreement is something that should be done voluntarily by both parties."

"Consensual?"

With his hands behind his back, Onoki stared wide-eyed at Chiaki and asked, "Does the little princess think that signing an agreement between two countries is like doing business?"

"Is it not?"

Qianqiu tilted his head in confusion. "In essence, cooperation between the two countries is no different from doing business."

Onoki was both amused and exasperated by Chiaki's simple thought process. He said with a laugh, "So, the Land of Wind abandoned the agreement with the Land of Earth and chose to sign an agreement with the Land of Fire because you are prettier and I am prettier, so they changed their partner?"

"puff……"

Nara Shikaku turned his head away and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Ebizo also lowered his head, his shoulders trembling, clearly trying his best to suppress his laughter.

They were the drafters and signatories of the agreement, and thinking about it, Onoki's statement doesn't seem entirely wrong...

Ebizo did indeed sign the contract with the Land of Fire because Chiaki was beautiful (just kidding).

Qianqiu raised an eyebrow, exchanged a glance with the bewildered Luosha, then casually put her hands on her hips and said with extraordinary domineering air, "What else could it be?"

"Isn't it because I'm good-looking that the Land of Wind changed the agreement?"

"If you don't believe me, ask the Fourth Kazekage. If you asked him to sign an agreement right now, would he choose you or me?"

Chapter 338 Good my foot!

"Fourth Kazekage, is that what you mean too?"

Onoki turned his gaze to Rasa, "Are you really going to choose to cooperate with Senju Chiaki regardless of whether it's reasonable or not?"

His tone already carried a hint of hostility, and it was clear that Onoki would take different actions in response to Rasa's next answer.

Luo Sha gave a wry smile, glanced at Qian Qiu who seemed indifferent and without any ulterior motives, and could only sigh softly.

Onoki's meaning was clear: he was assessing whether Rasa had truly sided with Konoha and the Land of Fire, and whether he was unconditionally supporting the Land of Fire's actions.

If Rasa answers yes, then Onoki will definitely take immediate action, truly abandoning the previously signed agreement and entering a state of hostility.

If Luo Sha answers no, it means there is still room for cooperation between them.

Let's put it in a simpler, easier-to-understand way.

In other words, will Rasa choose the Land of Earth or the Land of Fire?

Chiaki's attitude was also very clear at this time. She believed that Rasa would definitely choose the Land of Fire, not the Land of Earth.

In an instant, Luo Sha was put in a dilemma.

What should he choose?

This choice determined the fate of the entire Wind Kingdom and its subsequent strategies and tactics.

Good heavens, to take office like this, he's faced with such a difficult choice. Is becoming the Fourth Kazekage really the right thing to do...?

Uh……

We still have to do it!

All this hard work has been for the sake of becoming the Fourth Kazekage.

hateful.

Rasa turned his gaze to Ebizo, who stroked his beard, indicating that Rasa should consider it himself.

Now, as the Fourth Kazekage, he possesses the power to decide the fate of the Land of Wind.

"what happened?"

Is there anything else to consider?

With a somber expression, Onoki asked the hesitant Rasa, "Or is it that the Fourth Kazekage doesn't yet have a clear understanding of the village's situation and is unable to make a judgment?"

"Lord Luo Sha, there's no need to reason with this old man. Just give me your name!"

Chiaki, hands on her hips, was quite disgusted by Onoki's aggressive manner and immediately shouted at Rasa.

Luo Sha glanced at Qian Qiu with a bitter face. "Miss, if you don't say anything, things will be easier for me to handle."

Your words have put me in a difficult position.

If he had to choose a country, Rasa's mind raced. He considered the rising power of Konoha, the stunningly beautiful princess before him, and the renowned Sannin of Konoha. Compared to Onoki, who was the only one from the Land of Earth, even a fool would know which country to choose.

"Lord Ōnoki, I am very sorry."

Rasa sighed softly, finally reaffirming his resolve. He bowed deeply to Onoki and apologized, saying, "If I really have to choose, I can only choose Her Highness the Little Princess!"

"Hmph, did you hear that?"

Chiaki stood there smugly with her hands on her hips. She genuinely didn't understand the political struggle between Onoki and Rasa, and thought they were simply following her instructions.

"I see."

Onoki nodded, then slowly flew up and retreated.

"In that case, there's nothing more for us to discuss."

"Fourth Kazekage, the Land of Earth formally declares war on you!"

"Prepare for our attack!"

Bang

A signal flare shot straight into the sky and exploded in mid-air.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding ninjas sprang into action, completely encircling Chiaki and the others.

"Gentlemen, we must break through!"

Luo Sha said in a deep voice, "If we hold out until we reach the main force in the rear, they will stop attacking!"

"???"

"Wait, wait... how did they suddenly start fighting?"
