Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

……

As time passed, just when Lian Ye was about to be forced to become the "Little Chef of the Naruto World," a turning point finally arrived.

Three months after Tobirama Senju arrived on the battlefield.

The Cloud Village envoy, holding a white flag high, arrived at the Leaf Village camp.

"We...surrender."

News came from the village—

The election for the Second Raikage has been completed, and Kumogakure has ultimately chosen to surrender.

To proactively end this year-long war...

The specific details of the compensation need to be discussed in detail by Tobirama Senju himself in the Land of Lightning.

Konoha Camp, Commander's Tent.

The Cloud Village envoy knelt on one knee, cold sweat beading on his forehead, and respectfully presented a scroll of surrender inlaid with lightning patterns to Tobirama Senju, who sat in the main seat.

"Kumakushi Village... has officially surrendered to Konoha."

His voice was hoarse, filled with resentment and helplessness.

The tent was silent, with the heads of the various clans of Konoha standing solemnly on either side.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, and others stood beside Tobirama.

Lian Ye leaned against the corner, arms crossed, a slight smile playing on her lips.

The war is finally over.

It ended even faster than he had expected.

That's normal, though. Four Kage-level powerhouses died in a single war. No village could withstand that.

If we don't choose to surrender, Konoha will come knocking on our door sooner or later.

It seems that the Hidden Cloud Village has suffered a major blow this time and will not be able to initiate war for a long time to come.

Lianye was quite satisfied with her performance and could now slack off and do nothing.

With nearly twenty years to go before the Second Shinobi World War, they can already start enjoying their retirement.

By the time World War II broke out, they'd be in their thirties or forties.

He could even avoid participating in the war and continue to live out his retirement in the village.

The thought of the life of lying down that was about to begin made Lian Ye almost laugh out loud.

Of course, this is the ideal situation...

Who can know what will happen in the future?

……

Tobirama Senju took the surrender document and scanned its various clauses—

War reparations, border concessions, the free sharing of ninjutsu... each of these marked the complete defeat of the Hidden Cloud Village.

“After several consecutive defeats, the Hidden Cloud Village has very few high-end combatants left.” Tobirama Senju said coldly, “Surrender is indeed a wise choice.”

The Cloud Envoy lowered his head, not daring to refute.

The First Raikage, the Raikage's strongest bodyguard, Kinkaku, Ginkaku, and the newly arrived battlefield commander...

Their deaths were undoubtedly a huge blow to the Hidden Cloud Village!

This directly disqualified the village from fighting against Konoha.

As Tobirama Senju said, surrendering to the Hidden Cloud Village was the wisest choice.

Continuing the fighting will do no good for the village...

“Surrender is acceptable.” Tobirama Senju closed the document, his tone leaving no room for doubt. “However, the specific details of compensation need to be discussed in detail with me personally by the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning.”

The Cloud Hidden Envoy trembled: "This..."

The daimyo is the head of state of a country, possessing supreme executive power and being the highest ruler of the nation.

They determine the political direction of the country and are responsible for handling various government affairs.

This includes diplomatic relations with other countries, and deciding on major matters such as war and alliances.

The daimyo held supreme military power, and the ninja villages were essentially military bases. Ninjas were military forces employed by the daimyo.

At the same time, the daimyo also controls the economic lifeline of the country, providing economic aid to the ninja village and financial support for the village's construction and development.

The five great ninja villages need to apply for government funding from the daimyo every year for village development and construction...

Tobirama Senju's request was clearly unreasonable.

Making the daimyo negotiate in person is an attempt to completely destroy the reputation of Kumogakure!

"Is there a problem?" Tobirama Senju asked.

"No..." The Cloud Hidden Envoy dared not refuse and could only nod with difficulty: "I will make arrangements immediately after I return!"

Before he came here, the higher-ups had instructed him that he had to grit his teeth and agree to Konoha's requests, no matter how unreasonable they were...

After all, the Hidden Cloud Village can no longer afford to be drained.

After the envoy left, the atmosphere inside the tent finally relaxed.

"Tobirama-sensei, we won!" Koharu Utatane couldn't hide her excitement.

Danzo Shimura snorted coldly: "Kumakubi should have surrendered long ago, wasting so much time."

"Haha, finally I can rest." Hiruzen Sarutobi laughed, putting his arm around Danzo's shoulder.

Tobirama Senju put down the surrender document and glanced at the people in the tent.

“Nara Shikamaru,” he said in a deep voice.

Commander Nara immediately stepped forward and respectfully said, "Lord Hokage."

"You are responsible for arranging for the ninjas in the camp to return to Konoha in batches, ensuring their safety along the way."

"Yes." Commander Nara nodded, then hesitated for a moment, "Then you..."

“I will personally go to the Land of Lightning,” Tobirama Senju said calmly. “Although the war is over, the subsequent negotiations are the key.”

As the victorious nation, the Land of Fire can demand corresponding compensation from the Land of Lightning.

These reparations will greatly compensate for Konoha's losses in this war.

This is also why Tobirama Senju requested to speak with the daimyo of the Land of Lightning.

These are all wealthy people, so we can take this opportunity to extort a large sum of money from them.

As for whether this would offend the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning?

Tobirama Senju didn't care at all...

Before launching a war against Konoha, Kumogakure needs the Daimyo's consent.

Since we have chosen to wage war, we must be prepared to be defeated.

He would show no mercy to those who attempted to target Konoha; on the contrary, he would make them pay a heavy price!

After receiving the order, Nara led the heads of the various clans away and began to arrange the subsequent evacuation.

Only Lianye and a few others remained in the tent.

Tobirama Senju's gaze fell on the group, and he said in a deep voice, "You few, come with me."

"Okay, teacher!"

Lianye did not object and agreed without hesitation.

He was worried that the old man wouldn't take him along.

Although the Hidden Cloud Village has surrendered, there's no guarantee that some might resort to desperate measures!

It would be troublesome if this old guy got killed off by the plot.

With him around, at least Tobirama Senju's personal safety can be guaranteed...

"Don't worry, uncle!"

Lian Ye clenched her fists, thinking to herself:

"With me here, nothing will happen to you!"

Chapter 190 The Angry Name

The next morning, at the Konoha camp.

Renye reapplied the venom to the blade, preparing for her upcoming trip to the Land of Lightning.

He got up very early this morning because he was heading to the Land of Lightning today.

Although Tobirama Senju's life was secured by killing the Gold and Silver Brothers, he still needed to be extra careful just in case.

As the saying goes, "better safe than sorry," we absolutely cannot let this old guy have any accidents.

Anyone who poses any threat must be killed!

Hopefully, those guys from Kumogakure won't be so blind...

Otherwise, I would never have shown any mercy!

For Renya's sake, and for the sake of the village, Tobirama Senju cannot die.

If that old bastard dies, then Danzo or Hiruzen will have to become Hokage.

As time goes by, a power struggle will begin again, leading to Konoha's gradual decline.

This is something he doesn't want to see, so it's better for Tobirama Senju not to die.

Yes, this is for the sake of the village's development!

As for his perspective...

Just then, Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice pulled him back to reality.

"Lianye, it's time to set off."

Upon hearing this, Lianye stood up, sheathed her katana at her waist, and walked towards the group.

"Renya-kun, why are you up so early?" Koharu Utatane handed over a steaming hot rice ball. "Try this, it's my special breakfast!"

"Specially made?" Lianye took the rice ball with a puzzled look, but couldn't see anything special about it.

It just looks like a very ordinary rice ball...

"Don't listen to her, it's just a regular rice ball with some plums." Mitokado Haru pushed up his glasses, a smile playing on his lips.

"Where's Uncle?" Lianye asked while eating rice balls.

Hmm, the rice balls didn't taste very good.

But it feels so good not having to make breakfast!

"Master Tobirama is still in the tent giving instructions to Commander Nara," Shimura Danzo explained softly.

Lianye nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The old man is probably explaining the evacuation of the main force; he should be out soon.

"How much compensation do you think the Hidden Cloud Village will pay?" Uchiha Kagami leaned over and asked curiously.

After a moment's thought, Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "I think it won't be less than 100 million ryo."

Mitokado Homura nodded in deep agreement, saying, "With Tobirama-sensei here, the compensation amount should be more than 100 million ryo."

"Hmph, they were defeated and should pay the price!" Shimura Danzo sneered. "I think they should pay 300 million ryo in reparations!"

Lian Ye looked at the three of them talking with a strange expression. Could the two of them have said the same thing in the original work?

Then Tobirama Senju died in Kumogakure...

However, with our intervention, this kind of thing should not happen again.
