"Well... there's nothing we can do about it... Lady Snake Princess did it to protect us..."

"Margaret! Stop talking." Kikyo walked over, her face grim: "That is no longer our Snake Princess."

I don't know what they talked about, but he willingly became their slave...

This behavior cannot be accepted by the people of Amazon Lily!

“But…” Margaret sighed, a green snake coiled around the white cloak she was wearing.

"It's alright. Maybe there's something you can't say about it." Uchiha Fan patted Margaret's shoulder in a friendly manner and continued to extract information about Amazon Lily.

Before long, the group finally arrived at Amazon Lily, and Uchiha Fufan completed his 'transformation', becoming a girl who looked 'real'.

He just looks somewhat dashing and has a slightly masculine voice.

After disembarking, they followed the other members into the area of ​​Amazon Lily and encountered countless strange and unusual women.

Not long after heading to the center, they encountered an elderly woman with white hair, leaning on a cane and wearing a white cloak, who came out.

"You...you! Why did you bring a man back?!"

“A man…a man? A man!” Kikyo and Margaret exclaimed in surprise.

Kikyo instantly drew her weapon and pointed it at Uchiha Fufan: "You are... a man?"

"No wonder I found your voice and appearance strange!"

"How dare you lie to me!"

In an instant, all the Kuja Pirates members on the island raised their longbows, aiming their arrows at Uchiha Fufan.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm a 'real' woman."

Uchiha Bufan calmly unbuttoned his clothes, revealing the markings of his female upper body, and frankly stated, "Because my voice and name are too masculine, I was abandoned by my comrades..."

Clang.

Kikyo's sword fell, and shame instantly appeared on her face: "I'm sorry, Bufan."

“I’m sorry,” Margaret apologized.

Flameflower remained silent for a moment, saying nothing, because the prophecy she had made using the crystal ball to foretell Hancock's safe return had not yet been fulfilled.

Everyone put down their bows and arrows in unison. Before long, Uchiha Bufan successfully arrived at the core building area of ​​Kuja Island and met the two strange-looking sisters who had swallowed the Snake-Snake Fruit, the legendary Snake Princess sisters.

“You said your name is Bai Bufan and you want to join us, right?” Boa Santasonia, with green hair, spoke first.

Both of them were absent-minded during this time after losing their sister, and their tone was somewhat lonely.

“No, I want to be the empress of this island,” Uchiha Fufan said bluntly.

Chapter 124 The Great Age of Naval Exploration in the Ninja World Has Arrived!

Konoha Village after the disaster.

Prices in the village have been rising continuously. A bowl of Yile Ramen used to cost only a few dozen taels of silver, less than a hundred taels, but now, due to rising raw material costs, the price has had to be raised to two hundred taels a bowl.

It's just regular ramen.

"So, Bufan should be in another world right now. If we want to awaken Bufan, we have to find him, right?"

"Yes. That's what I think." Hancock nodded slightly, absentmindedly taking a bite of ramen.

With a slurp, Rope Tree took a mouthful of ramen and mumbled between chews, "Can I go?"

"Little brother," Tsunade glanced helplessly at Nawaki beside her, "Haven't you learned your lesson from the last game?"

“That’s different.” Rope Tree’s eyes held a more mature look: “Precisely because I lost in that world, I must rise again in that world.”

"This is my ninja way!"

Anko mercilessly exposed Nawaki's words: "Isn't your ninja way to become Hokage? Junior brother."

"..."

"Alright, alright." Kurenai Yuhi waved her hand helplessly: "The most important thing now is who goes and who stays."

Her thoughts drifted to the current situation in the ninja world.

"Kakashi is leaving for the Land of Iron tomorrow for the Five Kage Summit. Should we wait until the Five Kage have finished their negotiations and confirmed the current situation before making a decision?"

"The Five Kage Summit, huh?" Ye Cang absentmindedly picked up a noodle with his chopsticks, then put it down.

"Then I'll stay."

"I will protect Bufan's body; you can go to another world to find Bufan."

"Yakura!" Tsunade knew exactly what Yakura was thinking. "Are you still going to seek revenge?"

Yecang smiled slightly: "What, is Lady Tsunade going to stop me?"

"When did Konoha ninjas become so concerned about Sunagakure's internal problems?"

"This isn't a matter of whether we care or not; the ninja world can't afford any more casualties right now."

"and then."

"What, and then..."

"Does Lady Tsunade really think she's a savior?" Yekura mocked.

"Even I, as a key player, have never thought that way."

"You!" Tsunade glared angrily. "You really want to oppose me!"

Aside from dealing with extraordinary individuals, when has she ever humbled herself to beg anyone?

She never expected Yekura to be so ungrateful! She insisted on causing trouble during the most chaotic period in the ninja world, and her strength was not to be underestimated.

"I'm leaving." Yekura didn't eat a single bite of her ramen. The noodles in the bowl were moved to the right by her chopsticks, while the other side only contained soup, as if reflecting a certain relationship in reality that was quietly breaking down.

The others remained silent, while Kana Uzumaki and Yakumo Kurama were also debating whether or not to go.

Karin glanced, bewildered, at the cheerfully departing Yekura, then at Tsunade, who was taking deep breaths in anger, and at Kurenai, who was comforting Tsunade...

The dinner, which was originally intended to discuss the future, suddenly turned somewhat unpleasant.

Yekura didn't care about these things; she wasn't a member of Konoha to begin with.

Just like how good people always ask bad people questions like, "Why did you destroy the world?" or "Didn't you feel the beauty of this world?"

But what does this topic have to do with the Sunagakure heroes who are already dead?

She couldn't help but chuckle as she thought of this, and then headed towards the Thousand Hands Clan's territory.

A few days later, the Land of Iron once again welcomed the Five Kage. The content of this meeting will determine whether the five great nations will extend the system of one village per country in the future.

Within the Land of Fire, officials gathered to discuss the Hokage's upcoming mission to the Five Kage Summit.

Do you think the Hokage will still support us?

"I think so..."

Many officials lack confidence.

In this age of ninjas, the ability to occupy an important position as an ordinary person was entirely due to the decisions of the previous daimyo.

But now, that legend of the Uchiha clan has shattered it.

"Hmph!" A middle-aged man dressed in expensive clothes sneered. "Although the daimyo is dead, we nobles still exist, controlling companies large and small. Even our money is jointly printed by our great nation. How dare they rebel?"

His name is Morimura Shun. He is one of the candidates for daimyo, a major entrepreneur who controls several grain and real estate companies in the Land of Fire, and a shareholder who owns shares in a money exchange.

The remaining officials looked at each other in bewilderment, and eventually broke into another heated argument, trying to come to a conclusion.

......

"This time, the Five Kage Summit is ostensibly to deal with the Daimyo's affairs, but what I really hope for is that the five great ninja villages can join forces to develop the economy and stop prolonging the hatred of the past..." said Onoki.

“Our Hidden Mist Village has no objections,” Mei Terumi said with a smile, raising her hand.

"Kumakumo Village has no objections." The Fourth Raikage, who has now largely recovered, nodded slightly and spoke in a deep voice.

"Konoha has no objections," Kakashi said.

Immediately, everyone's attention turned to the silent Fourth Kazekage.

Rasa snorted coldly, somewhat displeased, but still spoke up and made his request: "Sunagakure needs supplies and money. Who among you can sponsor us?"

Upon hearing this, the four Kage frowned. Tobirama Senju hadn't expected that the Kage of Sunagakure would still be as straightforward as before, only wanting money and not cooperation.

Seeing this, Kakashi seized the opportunity to explain: "Fourth Kazekage, our current cooperation is for the sake of future development."

"If our five great ninja villages join forces, we can reduce unnecessary fighting..."

A loud bang echoed from the table, interrupting Kakashi's speech.

Rasa asked impatiently, "What unnecessary struggle? You were born in the Land of Fire and have access to vast resources, while what about us in Sunagakure?"

At this point, Luo Sha's tone became somewhat agitated.

"I, a dignified Fengying, need to dig for gold myself to subsidize the village's economic development and survival!"

"And you!"

Kakashi took a deep breath and glanced at the other three Kage out of the corner of his eye.

The three figures didn't speak, but their eyes conveyed the same meaning.

But after a flicker of surprise, Onoki slammed his hand on the table and retorted, "Kazekage! Don't forget what level of threat we're facing right now!"

"If the war continues, can you guarantee that Uchiha Kaidan won't have any wild ideas?!"

“That’s right!” Mei Terumi’s emerald green eyes gazed at Rasa: “For the sake of peace in the ninja world, we should temporarily set aside our hatred and develop for a while. This will also help stabilize the chaos that has arisen between nobles and officials from various countries vying to become daimyo during this period.”

"I have a suggestion: why not abolish the title of Daimyo and let us ninjas control the nation's resources ourselves?" A had no time to argue with Rasa and went straight to the point.

“Abolishing the daimyo is a good idea.” As the previous Hokage, Tobirama Senju had the right to speak at the Five Kage Summit.

He stroked his chin and suddenly asked, "So, do you have any way of snatching it?"

"What are you robbing?" Ai asked, puzzled.

Tobirama Senju's lips twitched: "You want to be the leader of the country without thinking about anything. Of course, it's the power to control the country's resources."

"This... can't we just use force?"

"?"

"Forget it." Tobirama Senju said helplessly, deciding to drop the topic.

"I believe it is entirely possible to support a daimyo who supports the development of ninjas and work together to fight against future disasters." Onoki had his ambitions, and secondly, the economy of the Land of Earth had never been very good, mainly due to its geographical environment.

Now that we have such a great opportunity, we must seize it firmly.

“That’s a good idea,” Tobirama Senju couldn’t help but say. He actually had this plan, but he didn’t know what the other countries were planning, so he didn’t voice his thoughts.

The Five Kage Summit went fairly well. The Fourth Kazekage insisted on his principles, insisting that cooperation was only possible if there were benefits to be gained. However, the other countries were not going to tolerate him and indicated that if they were unwilling to cooperate, then a four-nation alliance would be formed.

These words shattered the Fourth Kazekage's last illusions, forcing him to grit his teeth and agree to the alliance.

Ultimately, the Five Shadows Summit concluded successfully, with each side achieving its objectives and able to focus on supporting specific individuals to begin developing their respective nations.

As for why they don't take this power themselves, the reason is that those in power are mostly ordinary people rather than ninja clans. If the ninja clans were to try to take power, they would inevitably face a counterattack from the old nobles, which could lead to a lose-lose situation and cause the collapse of the national economy and even the ninja world's economy.

Secondly, if the ninja clan were to gain power all at once, they might want even more power, which would pose a threat to the Kage, who would become the leader of a country, and could even lead to the division of the country.

Throughout history, emperors have been assassinated or stripped of their power. So, if civil and military officials possessed the skills of ninjas, who knows if they might impulsively assassinate the emperor (shadow) due to momentary dissatisfaction with power and conflict?

The system of one country, one village, between ninjas and between ordinary people actually helped maintain balance in the ninja world.

However, supporting a daimyo is not without its costs. At the very least, the person being supported must provide substantial resources to support the development of the ninja village after becoming a daimyo, and agree to the joint development plan of the five great nations.

Several days later, inside a magnificent palace in a town in the Land of Fire.

boom!

"Morimura Shun, one of the ministers of the Land of Fire."

"I'm sorry, from now on you are no longer a candidate for Daimyo!"

Morimura Shun hurriedly got up while carrying his two concubines, and immediately noticed a masked man in black entering, holding a kunai marked with the symbol of a ninja.

"You are...you are a ninja from Konoha Village?!"

"How dare you interfere in our affairs!"
