Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 368 The Order from Daming Prefecture

Actually, this matter is quite simple to understand.

After all, he's the daimyo of the Land of Fire. You can't really say he loves his child that much.

But if you ask how much he loves himself, then there's absolutely no doubt about it.

So, naturally, it was his son who was killed by the assassin ninja this time.

So next time... will it be me?

Therefore, the daimyo of the Land of Fire, who inevitably fell into fear as soon as he thought about it, naturally wanted to ensure his safety.

How can we guarantee this?

Isn't Konoha known as the strongest village on the entire continent?

Get me a few ninjas! That's an order!

The reason Yua didn't know about this was because she was stopped at Shikaya in Nara and never got to Yua's place.

Indeed, the daimyo of the Land of Fire holds a prestigious position, but even the most prestigious position has its limits!

In the past, you wanted every good thing that came out, such as cannons and various electronic products.

One is something to protect your Daimyo's estate in the Land of Fire, and the other is something for your enjoyment. You've given it away, so there's nothing to say. After all, our Konoha Village signed an alliance treaty with the Daimyo's estate during the time of Hashirama Senju.

But you can't take advantage of us and expect us to give you things, and you won't give us money!

From the start of the development of the third-generation cannon, Konoha began sending the first-generation cannon to the Daimyo's residence.

Although there was a discrepancy between the two generations, it was still given in the end.

Not to mention that it's now in its fifth generation.

You've given so much already, when has your Great Ming Prefecture ever given you a single penny?

This time they're actually asking for people directly?!

Our Konoha Village is on equal footing with your Daimyo Prefecture; we are not your vassal!

One very interesting point is that in the past, the way various countries controlled the ninja villages within their countries was by controlling their food and economy.

If you don't obey, then we won't give you money or food.

However, now, thanks to Yuya's development, at least the five great ninja villages are slowly breaking away from the control of the daimyo.

Their five villages can easily manage on their own. Of course, the same problem remains: Yuya definitely won't make a move until he has a sufficient population to completely conquer the Land of Fire.

Or rather, they won't make the first move.

If the Daimyo of the Land of Fire were to suddenly decide to attack Konoha, Yua would certainly not show any mercy.

Then the question will be, "Why did His Majesty rebel?" and they'll simply raze your Daming Prefecture to the ground.

In fact, other countries and ninja villages have gradually discovered this situation as well.

However, this mode of life is quite comfortable, and no one would like to cause trouble if there were no conflicts, so both sides can maintain the status quo.

However, this time the Fire Country Daimyo was clearly terrified and immediately ordered Yua to send people over. Although Nara Shika also thought about it, if he sent his own people, he could completely control the Daimyo's life and death. But then he thought again, the Fire Country Daimyo couldn't be so stupid as to send all his people. In that case, his people would probably do the hard labor, while those who were loyal to the Fire Country Daimyo would do the easy work and have a higher status than the people of Konoha.

Sure enough, a few days later, news came that the daimyo of the Land of Fire had personally visited the Temple of Fire.

Well, it seems I was right. I'm glad I didn't agree.

Nara Shika felt a wave of fear wash over him. Luckily, he hadn't taken the Fire Country daimyo for a fool, or his villagers would have been sent to that wretched place called the daimyo's mansion.

However, Nara Shikaya's attempt to conceal the truth was futile. When the Daimyo of the Land of Fire realized that Konoha Village had not made any moves, he simply began to select people directly.

I've heard about Sarutobi Asuma from the Sarutobi clan. He's an excellent ninja, and at 17 years old, he's at the age where a ninja's potential is being realized and gradually reaching its peak.

Yes, that's very good, I would personally invite you.

Then he set his sights on the Uchiha clan.

And he specifically asked for Uchiha Obito.

Well, since Yua from the other world brought people from here over, and also brought a large number of people from other villages.

Therefore, the fact that there is actually another world cannot be hidden.

Even many ordinary people knew about it, but their attitude was simply to laugh it off and go back to work. However, those in high positions like Daimyo certainly knew the truth.

So, the strength of Obito Uchiha from the other world naturally caught the eye of this daimyo.

As for why Fugaku Uchiha didn't come here.

Obito Uchiha and his family had long since left the clan's territory, a fact that Fugaku Uchiha had no idea about.

As for whether Obito's family will agree...

That's ridiculous; no normal person would agree to that.

Yuya nodded, understanding why Hiruzen Sarutobi had specifically sought him out today.

"Asking me about this is pointless," Yuya said, spreading his hands. "If the daimyo forces your son to go to the daimyo's residence, what other option do I have besides sending him there?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi opened his mouth, but couldn't refute it.

After all, Sarutobi Asuma was specifically chosen to go to the Daimyo's residence.

Although you have to admit that there is a certain degree of threat involved.

However, in reality, although Konoha Village and Daimyo's Mansion are equal in status, they are now like two brothers, one of whom is afraid of being assassinated by others and seeks help from the other.

I called him out by name and said: "I know someone under you who's pretty capable. Why don't you have him protect me?"

It wouldn't be very polite to refuse such a request.

Hiruzen Sarutobi understood this as well. He gritted his teeth and said to Yuya, "I know you're in a difficult position. Here's what we'll do: if you can help me do this, I'll have my family allocate another two billion yen to support that aviation industry."

Upon hearing this, You Ya's eyes immediately curved into crescent moons.

Hiruzen Sarutobi is really sensible.

This is very simple if you pay money.

Yuya patted Hiruzen Sarutobi on the shoulder: "This matter is no problem."

Don't get me wrong, it's definitely not because of your two billion yen. It's just that I really like Asuma and don't want him to leave Konoha.

Okay, you can go back now.

I will give you an answer in a few days. Don't worry, Asuma will definitely not be able to go to Daimyo Prefecture.

Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Yua's words and nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you, Hokage-sama."

After bowing to Yua, Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief and left.

Yuya shook his head as he watched Hiruzen Sarutobi's retreating figure.

The Third Hokage in the original manga clearly didn't want his son to join that ridiculous Guardian Twelve Ninja.

In that case, it becomes much more feasible.
