Naruto: The village was on the verge of bankruptcy, and I struck oil.

This is the way of the ninja and the samurai.

Mu Feng, that heartless and insane guy, actually did such a heinous thing.

It's absolutely outrageous!

It should be a devastating blow.

"Samurai live by serving the public, ninja live by completing missions, and daimyo are the rulers and treasures of the nation. This is the true path of the country."

"Now the ninjas want to break away from the daimyo and live without relying on the daimyo's money."

"Once they get started, the future might just become another Sand Village."

Kazuma collapsed onto the tatami mat.

"My lord, you wouldn't want the Land of Fire to be ruled by a hundred or so minor officials in the future, would you?"

Yuan Yiman listened to the whole thing.

My heart was pounding.

He's right.

The ninja built and lived in a village by himself.

They connect with themselves through money.

They had no tasks of their own.

They couldn't sustain the village.

Once they build their own factories and develop their own businesses, they will have their own sources of income.

Who will be in charge of the Land of Fire from now on?

Is it a Daimyo or a Hokage?

What if it's just like what Kazuma said?

Mu Feng also appeared in Konoha.

That would be terrible.

Yuan Yiman's heart always leans towards the balance of power with Ma.

He was a loyal minister of Ma Da.

Shimura Danzo, you great female retainer.

What's the point of developing industry?

What competition?

They said it was for the sake of the Land of Fire.

I think you're just an ambitious person.

Next, Mu Feng.

Such ambitious individuals must be resolutely cracked down upon.

En no Yoshimitsu immediately gave Hosokawa an order.

"Immediately, right away."

"Get that bastard Shimura Danzo out of Momoyama Castle."

“Tell him.”

“I wouldn’t sell him a single piece of Yugang.”

"And forget about the other minerals in the Land of Fire."

The products from Sunagakure are excellent.

The Sand Village ninja should just stay in the Land of Wind.

The Land of Fire doesn't need a copy of the Sand Village.

Hosokawa and Kazuma received the order and immediately led their men to the inn.

The two of them kicked Shimura Danzo, who was resting, out of the room.

He and Ma drank heartily.

"Shimura Danzo, get out of Momoyama Castle right now."

Danzo Shimura was completely bewildered.

What happened?

"I want to see your name."

Hosokawa: "The master will not see you."

Danzo Shimura: "I have served the Land of Fire and shed my blood. I want to see the Daimyo."

He sneered.

"Shimura Danzo, get out of here."

"Don't ever show up in Momoyama Castle again."

"This is Lord Yoshimitsu's order."

Danzo Shimura: "What about my mine?"

Danzo Shimura was still ambitious.

Hosokawa: "There will be no more mines in the future. From now on, the sale of ores from the Land of Fire to your Konoha will be prohibited."

Upon hearing this, Shimura Danzo felt as if he had been struck on the head by a chimera.

Baka!

What exactly is going on?

Danzo Shimura gazed at the castle tower of Momoyama Castle, speechless and choked with emotion.

Female officials are a disgrace to the country.

I, Shimura Danzo, am utterly loyal!

Lord Yoshimitsu!

Chapter 199 The Blame Game: The Ultimate Blame-Shifting Technique

Danzo Shimura's ideas were actually quite simple.

He gave away his mine for free.

With the mine secured, the Konoha ninjas selflessly volunteered to work in the mine.

Anyone who doesn't go is someone who doesn't love the village, doesn't love Konoha.

Anyone who wants to take on a mission must first mine a certain number of qualified stones in the mine before they are eligible to accept the mission.

Konoha Ninja Academy Youth Labor Training Base.

They spent their summer and winter vacations in the mines.

A designated vacation center for middle-aged and elderly people strolling around the street.

. . .

. . .

If this continues...

The atmosphere in Konoha is thriving.

Four.

Since we use our own raw materials, they're free.

Zero cost.

It's cheaper than using the Wind Shadow to extract the Sandworm Blood Sea.

You're going to have to feed sandworms after I draw your blood?

I don't need any of that.

I'll crush you at zero cost.

Unfortunately, Danzo had good intentions, but was heartless despite his loyalty.

They not only fail to appreciate Danzo Shimura's good intentions.

It also prohibited Konoha from purchasing minerals in the future.

In the future, the cost of mineral raw materials will not be zero; in fact, it will increase.

Now, even if we're not making ninja tools, making farm tools will be more expensive than for others.

Danzo Shimura wept until he died.

Shimura Danzo's visit to Momoyama Castle to meet the daimyo not only failed to accomplish his goal but also worsened relations between the two sides.

Tsunade was furious.

She sought out Danzo Shimura to ask what had happened.

"Danzo, what exactly did you say when you met the daimyo?"

Why did the Daimyo suddenly forbid Konoha from purchasing minerals?

The situation within the Great Hall is also unclear to the Konoha Anbu.

After much deliberation, Shimura Danzo pondered the matter.

A scapegoat has been found.

"Lord Hokage, it's all because of Kazekage Mufeng that the Daimyo showed hostility towards Konoha."

Wind and Shadow Bathing in the Wind?!
