This Water Shadow is very strong, but overly cautious.

The reason is very simple, because the ninjas in these small countries cannot even form a large scale.

Any small country with a ninja village is considered to be among the best among small countries.

Powerful ones like Rain Shinobi have the confidence to declare war on a great power.

Among them, the Kingdom of Fire is naturally the strongest small country at the moment, and following closely behind is the Kingdom of Taki, which is located at the junction of the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Earth.

Although Takiguni is also a small country, it obtained the Seven-Tailed Beast when Hashirama Senju divided the tailed beasts, and it has a ninja organization called "Takiguni Village" within it.

With the existence of the "nuclear deterrent" of the tailed beasts, Takinin is considered a unique existence in the ninja world and has always been the king among small countries.

Although they dare not offend the big countries, under normal circumstances, the big countries will not take the initiative to provoke the Taki ninja who possesses the tailed beasts.

Even before Hanzo of the Salamander led the rise of the Rain Shinobi, the Taki Shinobi was once known as the "Sixth Country".

The reason for having such a name is of course not because all the people in Taki Country are sixth-class people, but it means that Taki Country is so powerful that it is like the "sixth great country".

Of course, these words are just for show. If you really believe them, people will doubt your IQ.

At this moment, the one who took the lead in putting forward opinions was the representative of the Taki Ninja of Taki Country.

Because of the size and influence of Takinin, this Takinin envoy also dared to be the first to speak out at this moment.

After Takinin, closely following are countries like the Land of Grass and the Land of Frost, which have ninja villages within them and are relatively powerful among small countries.

Seeing that the crowd was getting more and more angry, Mifune spoke again.

"Please be patient, everyone."

"As the General of the Iron Country, I pledge my allegiance to you all, staking my own honor as a samurai."

"The Iron Nation will never shield anyone, and will certainly give you a satisfactory answer."

"It's just that this answer needs to be announced after the auction is over."

·· Request flowers·· ··

"Please believe me."

Mifune spoke seriously while an aura of a strong man emanated from him.

The direct reason why a small country is a small country is that it is difficult for a strong person of the "Shadow" level to be born on the soil of a small country.

According to Ryosuke's observation, although Mifune has not yet reached his peak at this moment, he has at least the strength of a "quasi-shadow".

Strength determines prestige and voice.

Under the threats of Mifune's soft and hard tactics, a hint of hesitation flashed in the eyes of the leading Takinin.

After a stalemate, Takinin finally chose to sit down.

Seeing that the leaders had calmed down temporarily, the representatives of the small countries who had been furious just now also calmed down.

"Thank you for your trust in the Iron Nation."

..

“I don’t think anyone will be disappointed.”

"The auction is now reopened."

Seeing that he had achieved the desired result, Sanchuan stopped procrastinating and started the auction directly.

"We in Konoha want half of these weapons."

"As for the price, we can continue to increase it to 50% of the usual premium."

"You guys can divide the rest up among yourselves. If anyone has any objections, you're welcome to raise the price."

As Mifune finished speaking, Tsunade was the first to speak, not giving the other small countries room to think. Princess Senju's aura spread from her body.

The powerful attitude displayed by Konoha made many small countries stay away.

Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is the nature of ninjas from small countries.

The arrogant remarks made by the envoys from the two countries of Insect and Bird have already shown the price to be paid for offending the ninjas of a big country.

Even though this group of people were furious and criticizing, no one dared to fire directly at Kirigakure and Konoha.

Everyone expressed their dissatisfaction to Mifune and tried to use the Iron Nation to intervene in the incident.

Because they know that the cost of directly provoking a big country is something they cannot afford.

In addition, Tsunade's behavior itself complies with the rules of the auction, and she did not use her status and power as a big country to stop small countries from making additional bids.

In this situation, who do you blame if you don’t have the ability to come up with the money?

The price proposed by Tsunade discouraged these small countries and they no longer had the idea of ​​competing with Konoha.

Such extravagant and lavish behavior is obviously beyond the reach of many small countries.

According to the rules of the "auction", Tsunade's behavior is impeccable.

Chapter 221: Agreed to Play Bad Together

Not only that, Tsunade, the representative of Konoha, just made a slight move and directly blocked half of the weapons.

This also made representatives from other small countries feel a sense of crisis.

Everyone looked around at the other people at the table and estimated their needs based on Mifune's list.

But no matter how you calculate it, the result is "too many monks and too little porridge".

In addition, Konoha was so generous that it directly bought out half of the quantity at a high price, which made other small countries feel the urgency.

The quick hand gets the reward, the slow hand gets the loss.

Soon, ninjas from other small countries began to bid one after another.

Due to the auction format, the bidding was very fierce for a while. Small countries bid one after another, and the prices were already higher than the price at which the Iron Country usually sold its weapons.

But no matter how these small countries bid, they could never exceed 1.5 times the price given by Tsunade.

The average price at this moment has only increased to a 20% premium.

According to Ryosuke's observation, a 30% price increase is already the limit for some small countries with limited strength.

However, for smaller nations with slightly stronger strength, such as Takigakure and Kusanagi, there seems to be some spare capacity left.

A hint of deep understanding flashed in Mizunoe Ryosuke's eyes. It was time to add fuel to the fire.

At this moment, Mizunoe Ryosuke slowly spoke.

"Kirigakure seeks thirty percent of the total amount of these weapons."

"Increase the price by 30%."

Kirigakure, who had been silent all this time, suddenly made a bid, and both the price and the demand were stuck at a very dangerous level.

Kirigakure's sudden entrance caused the expressions of the representatives from the small countries to change.

With the example of Konoha being swallowed up before, no one can say anything wrong about Kirigakure now.

However, Kirigakure did not go to extremes, and the price was just within the acceptable range for all small countries, leaving them feeling a bit reluctant.

Internal Group and One Leek Rely on 2 Si Si Thinking (Part 3)

Only 20% of the total weapons supply remains, which is obviously not enough to meet the needs of all small countries.

If they want to successfully purchase weapons, they can only choose to increase the price and compete with major powers.

At present, smaller countries with slightly stronger strength are beginning to feel restless.

Because of Kirigakure's sudden entry, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the base price of this batch of weapons had reached a minimum premium of 30%.

They knew that if they didn't act now, the price would likely continue to rise.

Instead of doing this, it is better to give a high price now. Even if there is a loss, at least it can ensure that the country can successfully purchase weapons.

"The Kusashi wants ten percent, a 40 percent premium!"

Soon, the Kusa Ninja representative gritted his teeth and said that he had raised the price to the limit that the Kusa Ninja could afford.

"Takinin also wants 10%, a 45% premium!!!"

Faced with the sudden price increase of Kirigakure, the powerful Kusagakure and Takigakure from the small country chose to "not be morally upright" at the same time and raised the price to a new height.

In order to be safe, Taki Shinobi even offered a price that was half a percentage higher than that of Kusa Shinobi, which made the Kusa Shinobi representative look a little unhappy.

This price is already quite close to the "ceiling price" given by Tsunade before.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the representatives of other small countries changed.

The four clans of Konoha, Kirigakure, Kusanagi and Takigakure have already raised the price to a minimum premium of 30%, and have already covered all the shares of this batch of weapons.

Unless they offer a price premium of more than 30%, this batch of weapons is destined to have nothing to do with them.

"Bastard!"

A ninja representative from a small country cursed in his heart.

The object of his anger was not Konoha, which had raised the price from the beginning and then snapped up the items in large quantities.

It wasn't Kirigakure who entered the market later and raised the reserve price.

On the contrary, it was the Kusa and Taki ninjas who suddenly made bids at this moment. In his opinion, it was the Kusa and Taki ninjas' sudden "unsportsmanlike" price change that caused the price to rise so quickly.

We had agreed to play badly together, but you secretly opened the book?

"Kawa no Kuni wants 5%, a 50% premium!!!"

Soon, the representative of the small country, who had just been cursing Taki and Kusanagi for their lack of martial ethics in his heart, stood up and gasped as he quoted the "ceiling price".

This price also surpassed the Kingdom of Water Trap and the Kingdom of Grass, and was on par with Konoha.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked.

What's happening here?

The Ninja of River Country has gone crazy?!

Among the many small countries, Kawanokuni is considered to be a relatively weak country.

There are neither any resource features worthy of praise nor any significant combat power.

On the contrary, because it is close to the desert of the Land of Wind, the country is very barren. It is the kind of country that has ninjas but no ninja villages.

The fact that the country of Kawanokuni, which had always been weak and had little presence, suddenly offered such a high price stunned everyone.

In response to everyone's surprised looks, the representative of River Country just gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Only family members know their own business, and Kawanokuni's behavior is indeed a helpless move.

The River Kingdom is located between the Fire Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom.

Like other small countries, it exists as a buffer zone between the Fire Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom.

Because of the previous action of Hanzo of the Salamander leading the Rain Ninja to attack the Land of Wind, the Land of Wind deployed a large number of troops on the border with the Land of River.

Faced with the Wind Country's troops stationed on the border, the Fire Country naturally responded as well, and a large number of Konoha ninjas were also on standby at the border with the River Country.

This back and forth made the country of Chuanzhiguo, which was caught in the middle, extremely uncomfortable.

For the ninjas of a big country, the borders with small countries are meaningless.

Every day, a large number of Sand Ninjas and Konoha Ninjas would infiltrate the territory of River Country to spy on the other side in order to obtain the movements of the other side, making River Country dare not speak out.

In the eyes of big countries, who would care about the opinions of an insignificant small country?

Therefore, the anxiety of the people of Kawanokuni and the Kawanoshinobi has reached its peak, and it is like adding insult to injury.

The weak national strength of the River Country means that the River Country itself has no ability to cast weapons on a large scale. The weapons of the River Ninja are all purchased from the Iron Country.

Therefore, for other countries, if they stop purchasing weapons from the Iron Nation, there will simply be a gap in weapons.

For the Kingdom of Rivers, if there is no supply of weapons from the Kingdom of Iron, the River Ninjas will have to fight the enemy with bare hands.

Due to various factors, Kawanin had no choice but to take a gamble and offer a high price to buy weapons.

In fact, Kawanokuni's previous goal was to obtain at least 10% of the total amount of this batch of weapons, but as the price continued to rise, Kawanokuni had no choice but to grit its teeth and increase the price, even at the cost of reducing its own demand share.

Everyone was completely crazy about Kawanokuni's bid.

At this moment, they truly felt the sense of urgency.

If this continues, they really may not be able to buy even a single hair.

What if the budget is exceeded? Should I just not buy it?
