Naruto: The spiritual leader of the Uchiha clan

"Okay, then it's settled. We'll set off together in five days!" Karuju Yagura talked with the seven people again and then left.

Ringo Yuyuri put the Thunder Blade Fang on both sides, stood up and walked towards his own room. When the others saw that Juan Wang had left, they put away their swords, breathed a sigh of relief, and went to eat and have fun while chatting and laughing.

Sand Hidden Village

Lin was now sitting with his legs crossed, looking at the clerks and ninjas on either side and asked, "What do you think of the succession ceremony of the Hidden Cloud Village?"

He drummed his hands on the table, deep in thought. To be honest, he didn't want to go, but just now, their messenger said that Hokage Uchiha Owl would also be there.

This is intriguing. Since Uchiha Xiao is going, it would be inappropriate for them not to go.

Ebizo was the first to speak, "I think Lord Kazekage must attend this succession ceremony. This time, the Hidden Cloud Village not only invited us, but also the Kages of other villages."

"According to the information received by the messenger, Hokage Uchiha Owl has confirmed his participation in the succession ceremony of the Hidden Cloud Village. As an ally of Konoha, our Sand Village must also participate."

Ebizo's words not only made Feng Yinglin feel that it was reasonable, but also made everyone present nod their heads.

Grandma Chiyo also nodded, obviously agreeing with her brother's opinion.

Feng Yinglin thought for a moment and finally said, "In that case, let's go! But who should I send with me?"

"Lord Chiyo is old and not fit for long journeys, and the others..." A civilian ninja sighed.

The whole audience was silent.

Feng Yinglin knocked on the table and said, "How about this, I will take ten jonin and Sasori with me. Sasori can now control twenty puppets at the same time, but I may need to borrow the Chikamatsu Jujinwei from my mother!"

Chiyo's eyes lit up. Yes, her grandson can now control twenty puppets at the same time, and he is very skilled. It's just that the quality of the puppets is a little bit poor. If my Chikamatsu Juurei is added, he will definitely be able to rival the Kage-level combat power!

"Okay! Lin, I will lend you the Ten Jinsong Guards. This time, let them all see that we in the Sand Village also have geniuses!" Grandma Chiyo's face was full of smiles. She almost forgot that she had a grandson who was a genius puppeteer!

The other high-ranking officials of the Sand Village all smiled and praised Scorpion. They had heard a little about this talented young man, who was the most talented among puppeteers.

He is just usually low-key, so no one knows his strength. Today Feng Yinglin talked about this, which made everyone happy.

The gap in combat power in the Sand Village is too serious. There was the third Kazekage, Rasa, and then there was Ye Cang who married over. Now the only ones with Kage-level combat power are Chiyo and Hayashi. Now that they heard that Scorpion can also stand on his own, everyone immediately relaxed a lot!

After everyone finalized the agreement, the meeting ended with smiles on everyone's faces.

At this time, Scorpion was refining a puppet in the cave. His eyes were shining and he was a little excited. The origin of this puppet was not ordinary - he dug it out from a grave!

"It's done!" Scorpion laughed, then connected the chakra line to the puppet. The puppet opened its eyes and walked over.

"Magnetic Style: Sand Rain!" Scorpion shouted, and the puppet waved its arms. The iron sand in the space gathered and turned into iron bullets, which scattered in all directions. Bang, bang, bang, bang

The iron bullet was embedded two feet deep into the hard cave wall. If it were a human, he would have died instantly!

"Hahahahahaha!" Scorpion laughed a little crazily. Art, eternal art! So wonderful!

The puppet he refined was the original Third Kazekage. The original Kazekage's body was smashed to pieces, and he spent a long time piecing it together, adding various precious puppet materials, and finally repaired it.

Since the Third Kazekage died for the Sand Village, then using his body to refine puppets is also to protect the Sand Village. His spirit in the underworld should be very happy!

(Third Kazekage: I*? ****)

However, this kind of thing was still a bit too outrageous, so Scorpion put the puppet away and put it into the scroll he carried with him, but this time, three words were engraved on the scroll.

Not long after, his phone rang.

Scorpion answered the phone and said with a smile, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"Scorpion, the Fourth Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village will soon be the successor to the Raikage. The Kages of all countries will be there, and you will be your father's bodyguard," Lin said with a smile.

"Of course no problem, father, when are we leaving?" Scorpion's eyes lit up. Maybe he would have a chance to use his new puppet along the way!

"No rush. The day after tomorrow, in order to ensure that you can show your skills, I will ask your grandmother to get the Jinsong Ten Guards for you." Lin smiled.

Scorpion was stunned at first. If he had been really envious of his grandmother Chikamatsu Juurei before, but now that he had the Third Generation Kazekage puppet, Scorpion felt that it was just so-so.

But in order to prevent Lin from noticing anything unusual, he smiled and said, "That's great! Grandma's Jinsong Ten Guards, I've been wanting to try it for a long time!"

"Haha, come here first, I'll give you the scroll of the Jinsong Ten Guards." Lin said with a smile. He looked at the scroll with the number ten written on it in his hand, with tenderness in the corners of his eyes.

There's nothing he can do. His son is just so talented. He can control twenty puppets at such a young age. This cricket is under the control of the Ten Guards of Song Dynasty.

Scorpion hung up the phone, his lips curled up, his eyes filled with obsession, and he touched the scroll with three words in his hand. "Good boy~ It seems that I won't need you unless it's a critical moment!"

Scorpion walked towards the village. Although talent is the most important thing for a puppeteer, he still needs to train the Tenjin Guards more. After all, each puppeteer has different manipulation habits, and he needs to familiarize himself with them as soon as possible.

Chapter 464: Seeing the Essence Through Phenomena

Uchiha Xiao was busy all day and collapsed on the sofa when he got home, looking as if he had lost all hope in life.

"What's wrong? Husband?" Tsunade heard the noise and walked out of the bedroom, making a pot of tea for Uchiha Owl.

After Uchiha Xiao drank a cup of tea, his expression of despair finally eased a little, and a faint bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Today, the Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village sent an envoy to Konoha Village and asked us to attend the ceremony." Uchiha Xiao said slowly.

Tsunade was stunned at first. "Well, just go. It's not like you can't go." Tsunade was a little confused. Isn't it just to see the excitement? Why is it so painful?

Uchiha Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "The key is that I have to give them 500 million silver. This is even more painful than killing me." He immediately beat his chest and stamped his feet, feeling very depressed.

Tsunade understood and twitched her lips. Well, it turns out her husband couldn't bear to part with the 500 million silver! Sure enough, the rumors from the outside world were not without reason.

Uchiha Owl is a money-eating beast who only takes in money and never gives out. If you ask for his money, it's like asking for his life.

"Then what? Did you give it to him?" Tsunade asked.

"I gave it to him. It was Lu Ming who made the final decision. But I have an idea that can make the money back. That is, I will pass the Hokage position to Minato. When Minato succeeds the Hokage, we will send invitations to various countries. This way, not only will we have 500 million, but we can also make a little money." Uchiha Xiao curled his lips.

Tsunade was shocked, "Luming agreed?" No, that's not right. Based on her understanding of Luming, Luming would never agree to such conditions.

"I refused, and he scolded me harshly, calling me an emo." Uchiha Xiao forced out a few crocodile tears.

Tsunade's mouth twitched. "You deserve it! Throughout the history of the ninja world, there has never been a Kage who abdicated and earned back the money for 500 million taels of silver!"

"I know I was wrong." Uchiha Xiao curled his lips and lowered his head even lower.

Tsunade held her forehead and said, "Okay, go take a shower and get ready for bed. Don't do that for the next few days. Get enough rest so that you can represent Konoha to go to the Hidden Cloud Village." She blushed.

Uchiha Xiao straightened his back and said, "OK! I'll go take a shower now!" After that, he turned into a golden light and rushed into the bathroom and started taking a shower.

He hummed a song while washing, feeling in a good mood. When he finished washing, he slept with Tsunade and spent the night without any incident.

The next day

Uchiha Owl got up very early because the envoy from the Hidden Cloud Village sent someone to Konoha to invite the Hokage to the Hidden Cloud Village. Uchiha Owl agreed, so he had a lot of things to deal with.

The most important thing is who to take to protect the Hokage, and the Anbu captain Hatake Sakumo is already a foregone conclusion.

There is another position to be discussed today, and on the way to the Hokage Building, Uchiha Owl saw the Namikaze Minato team who had just returned from a mission, and his eyes lit up.

"Minato, have you just completed the mission?" Uchiha Owl walked up and touched his shoulder.

Namikaze Minato was stunned, but when he saw Uchiha Owl, he quickly nodded, "Yes, teacher!" His subordinates, Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Obito, and Nohara Rin also saluted.

Uchiha Owl smiled and said, "In that case, how about I assign you a task?" He looked at Minato and the members of Minato's team.

Namikaze Minato said, "Just give the Hokage your orders, and Minato will do his best to complete them!"

Uchiha Xiao nodded and said, "In six days, it will be the succession ceremony of the Fourth Raikage Ai of the Hidden Cloud Village. I want your team to be my guards and go with me to the Hidden Cloud Village to watch the ceremony."

Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the content of the mission. He thought it was a difficult mission, but it turned out to be to escort the Hokage and go to the Hidden Cloud Village to watch the ceremony.

Now that the Third Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village has passed away and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki has left, the only one who can stand up is Young Master Ai, who is about to succeed the Fourth Raikage.

Therefore, Namikaze Minato felt that the difficulty was not that great, but he did not say it to his face. "Since the teacher has ordered us to do so, we will do our best to protect the teacher's personal safety."

Uchiha Xiao nodded and said, "Good, good. As for the discussion later, let's forget about the guarding and discuss something else."

Just like that, Uchiha Owl brought Namikaze Minato and others to the Hokage's office. Nara Rokumei was handling government affairs. When he looked up, he saw Uchiha Owl bringing Namikaze Minato and others in. He immediately understood what Uchiha Owl meant.

He smiled at Minato, who smiled back.

Then Nara Luming looked at Uchiha Xiao and asked, "Have you found the guards?"

Uchiha Owl nodded, "Once we've found them, let Sakumo and Minato be the positive and negative guards, and Minato's disciples be the team members."

Nara Rokumei thought about it and agreed, so he nodded. Then there was a long and boring discussion about etiquette and gift money.

Obito was falling asleep while listening, Rin was also a little absent-minded, and Kakashi was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, resting.

Only Minato Namikaze stood up straight and listened to the conversation between Nara Rokumei and Uchiha Owl.

These actions were also seen by Uchiha Owl and Nara Rokumei, and this time Rokumei also had a good impression of Namikaze Minato in his heart.

As for the other three children, they are still young and there is no need to worry about them.

Suddenly, the two of them finished talking. Nara Rokumei looked at Minato Namikaze's serious eyes and couldn't bear to let him look at him like that, so he said, "Minato, what do you think about this matter?"

Namikaze Minato thought for a moment, then said, "Actually, I think the main purpose of the Hidden Cloud Village making such a grand succession ceremony this time is to take advantage of the situation."

"Oh?" Uchiha Xiao's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that Namikaze Minato had such an insight!

After Namikaze Minato finished talking about taking advantage of the situation, Uchiha Owl and Nara Rokumei immediately understood what he meant. However, in order to test his ability, Nara Rokumei asked, "How do you take advantage of the situation?" His eyes were encouraging.

Namikaze Minato stood up and bowed, then straightened his back and said, "What I am going to say next is just my own humble opinion. If there is anything wrong, please let the teacher and Deputy Hokage Shikaku speak out."

The two looked at each other, and finally Uchiha Xiao spoke, "Minato, don't worry, there are no outsiders here."

Nara Luming nodded.

Namikaze Minato said seriously, "Everyone in the Hidden Cloud Village knows that the Third Raikage died in battle, and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki is now in seclusion in Konoha. The only Kage-level fighter who can be on the stage is Master Ai."

"At this time, the Iwagakure Village is very powerful. The old and powerful Onoki in the village, plus Huang Tu, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, now there are three."

"Deidara, a disciple of the Tsuchikage of the Iwagakure Village, is said to have the strength of a Kage and once blew up the Tsuchikage Building." Uzumaki Nagato said lightly.

Nara Shikaku nodded. Namikaze Minato's analysis was correct. Everything was just as he said. Now the strength of the Iwagakure Village was overwhelming that of the Kumogakure Village.

Uchiha Owl laughed unkindly after hearing Deidara's name and what he did. He felt a little sorry for the old man Ohnoki, who had to care about the village and tolerate Deidara at the same time.

"Mr. Xiao?" Nara Luming frowned and looked at Uchiha Xiao. We are discussing something now, why are you suddenly laughing!

Uchiha Xiao coughed twice, then looked straight at him and said, "Sorry, I just thought of something interesting. You guys continue."

Nara Rokumei rolled his eyes and gestured for Minato to continue.
