Seeing that Lei Ying apologized, Lian Ye did not pursue the matter further.

"I hope the Raikage can help me clarify things then."

"No problem!" Raikage patted his bandaged chest lightly, assuring him.

He was severely injured by Tobirama Senju, and despite treatment by medical ninjas, he has not yet fully recovered.

"Renya, Kumogakure has increased your influence, isn't that a good thing?" Hiruzen Sarutobi said cheerfully.

Lian Ye rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "You should keep this good thing for yourself."

He was not interested in such a notorious reputation.

"Never mind, never mind." Hiruzen Sarutobi gave an awkward smile.

"Hokage, please follow me." The Raikage led Tobirama Senju and the others to the Raikage Building.

……

Inside the Raikage's office, several Cloud Village ninjas stood silently around him. Renya stepped into the office, instinctively tightening her grip on the hilt of her katana.

Could the Raikage be trying to emulate the Gold and Silver Brothers?

Lian Ye's face turned ugly. She instantly activated her Sharingan, and three black tomoe slowly emerged from the bottom of her scarlet pupils.

If things go wrong, he will immediately take action and kill all of these guys in the shortest amount of time.

“I meant no harm.” The Second Raikage noticed his movement and raised his hand in acknowledgment.

This is just the normal procedure for a surrender ceremony, which requires a ninja to witness it.

These Cloud Village ninja belong to the logistics department and perform clerical work. They are mostly genin and pose no threat to the Konoha delegation...

"Renya, don't be nervous." Tobirama Senju stood in the middle, his voice calm. "The current Kumogakure can't stop us."

The Cloud Village now has very few high-end combat forces left, and if they want to leave, no one can stop them.

Moreover, the Raikage is currently seriously injured.

Upon hearing this, Lei Ying broke out in a cold sweat and handed over the document: "These are the previously drafted terms. Please take a look."

On his way to the Land of Lightning, Tobirama Senju had already discussed the specific terms of the treaty with the Second Raikage.

Tobirama Senju took the document and read it carefully, and Renya's gaze followed.

I. War reparations.

The Daimyo of the Land of Lightning needs to pay war reparations to the Land of Fire.

Furthermore, three strategic locations in the northern part of the Land of Hot Water were transferred to the jurisdiction of Konoha.

II. Military Restrictions.

The Hidden Cloud Village is prohibited from launching any military action against the Land of Fire for ten years.

Cloud Ninjas are not allowed to carry out missions within 50 kilometers of the Land of Fire's border.

[III. Ninjutsu and Intelligence Transfer.]

The Hidden Cloud Village needs to hand over several ninjutsu, including "Lightning Release: Black Spot" and "Lightning Release Chakra Mode".

The Hidden Cloud Village must withdraw all its spies from the Land of Fire and is prohibited from sending spies in for ten years.

IV. Political Constraints.

The Land of Lightning is prohibited from forming military alliances with other countries, and high-ranking officials of the Hidden Cloud Village must report to the Hidden Leaf Village in advance when visiting other countries.

V. Penalties for Breach of Contract.

If the Land of Lightning violates any of the terms, Konoha has the right to unilaterally restart the war and make them pay the price.

……

Lian Ye felt that this kind of agreement was completely useless. As long as one was powerful enough, one could tear up the agreement at will; it was just a formality.

The binding force of the agreement lies not in the paper, but in whether Konoha can forever maintain the power that makes Kumogakure fearful.

The agreements signed in the ninja world are the most useless things; they can only bring temporary peace.

Whenever Konoha weakens or Kumogakure strengthens, the first thing Kumogakure does is tear up this tattered piece of paper and then reignite the war.

Unless the Land of Fire maintains its lead over the Land of Lightning, war will break out sooner or later.

Moreover, the Land of Lightning isn't the only country in the ninja world that covets the Land of Fire; there are other countries as well…

War will never disappear in the struggle for limited resources.

This has been the case since ancient times; it is simply unavoidable.

The only useful parts of this treaty were the reparations and the ninjutsu scrolls.

As for withdrawing all spies?

Even a fool would know that the Hidden Cloud Village wouldn't do as instructed.

……

After reading it, Tobirama Senju found no problems and signed his name on it.

Seeing this, Raikage wrote down his name as well.

The Land of Fire and the Land of Lightning have reached a ten-year ceasefire agreement!

Before leaving, Tobirama Senju said to the Raikage, "Raikage, I hope you won't forget what's written here..."

"You can't afford the consequences of breaching the contract!"

……

P.S.: I'm preparing for a book test (meaning the title can be changed). The author is terrible at naming books, so I'm soliciting title suggestions online (15 characters including punctuation). Ideally, it should be something catchy like "Naruto: xxxx type," *sobs*

Chapter 207 Deviated from the Original Intention

Konoha and Kumogakure signed a peace treaty, finally ending the two-year war.

Currently, the only ongoing war in the ninja world is between Kirigakure and Iwagakure, with the Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu and the Tsuchikage Mugen fighting to the point of near-brain drain.

In Lianye's memory, the two of them perished together in the First World War...

I wonder how long the war between the two villages will last?

Renya wasn't too concerned about this matter; all he knew was that he had changed Tobirama Senju's fate.

According to the original plan: after World War I, this old guy went to Kumogakure to sign a peace treaty.

At this time, the Kinkaku and Ginkaku brothers launched a coup, directly ambushing and killing the Second Raikage, severely injuring Tobirama Senju, and leading the village's elite forces to hunt down the Konoha delegation.

In order to create an opportunity for his disciples to escape, he chose to go alone to buy them time.

He was eventually killed by Golden Horn and Silver Horn...

When Renya went to the Land of Lightning for the war, she was thinking about how to change the fate of Tobirama Senju's death.

If Hashirama Senju's death could be rewritten, then Tobirama Senju's fate could certainly be rewritten as well!

He began to think of a solution, since this old guy was killed by Golden Horn and Silver Horn.

Then we just need to find a way to kill them.

So when he encountered Golden Horn and Silver Horn, his first thought was—

For Tobirama Senju's safety, I must kill the two of them!

From the start of the battle, Lianye knew he was no match for the two, but instead of retreating, he seized an opportunity to kill Yinjiao.

With Silver Horn's death, Gold Horn's threat was greatly reduced, and after several battles, he was finally killed.

As expected, Kinkaku and Ginkaku were killed by themselves, and Tobirama Senju was not in danger during this meeting.

Although they encountered assassination attempts from the Second Raikage and Kakuzu, they easily thwarted them.

Renya gazed at Tobirama Senju's retreating figure, lost in thought.

This old guy is in his forties now. As long as he doesn't get seriously injured, he can live for another twenty or thirty years without any problem.

In the Sengoku period, when the average lifespan was only thirty years, it was incredibly long for Tobirama Senju to live to be sixty or seventy.

After all, lifespan is related to strength. The stronger you are, the less danger you will encounter, and naturally you can live longer.

Very few people die of natural causes; most are killed by enemies.

In the original story, if Tobirama Senju hadn't been killed, he could have easily lived to be sixty or seventy years old based on his lifespan alone.

As long as this old bastard doesn't die, many things that will happen to Konoha in the future can be avoided.

I believe that under Tobirama's leadership, the village will become stronger and stronger, and then I can relax and retire in peace.

The only thing that Lianye regrets about this war is that she failed to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Isn't it said that there's a high probability of opening your eyes in a life-or-death crisis?

He was nearly beaten to death several times, but he didn't awaken the Kaleidoscope.

Perhaps only the pain of losing a close friend can open his eyes...

Renya subconsciously glanced at Shimura Danzo and Utatane Koharu; the deaths of his two teammates should help him open his eyes.

Danzo and Koharu, who were walking at the front of the group, suddenly felt a chill down their spines.

The two turned their heads simultaneously and saw Lian Ye staring intently at them, as if plotting something...

"Ren...Renya-kun, what's wrong?" Koharu's voice trembled slightly.

I have a feeling that Lian Ye is plotting something bad for them.

Danzo Shimura's pupils suddenly contracted; he had actually seen a fleeting ruthlessness in Renya's eyes.

When he came to his senses, his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

What on earth is this guy thinking?!

This was the first time he had ever seen Lian Ye like this...

No, this is the second time!

He suddenly remembered what Lian Ye had said a few years ago while sitting in the carriage.

"If you were to die in front of me, would I be able to open my eyes?"

At that moment, Lian Ye's killing intent was undisguised; it seemed she truly wanted to kill them and gain the chance to evolve her Sharingan once more!

That bastard, is he planning to take advantage of them again?

Those Uchiha clan guys are really giving him a headache!

They're all dangerous people, as expected!

Danzo clenched his fists instinctively. Even Renya, who was with them day and night, would have a fit of madness, let alone the more evil Uchiha clan members.

It seems that once I become Hokage, I will need to eliminate the Uchiha clan immediately to prevent them from causing irreparable damage to the village in the future.

As for Lianye...

Although he didn't know what the other person was thinking, he felt that Renye wouldn't do anything to harm her companions.

Of the entire Uchiha clan, the only people he truly trusted were Renya and Kagami, as their character was trustworthy.

As long as they don't threaten the village, I'll turn a blind eye.

If the two men posed a threat to the village, then for the sake of the village's safety, he would have no choice but to kill his best friend, even if it would be painful.

Upon hearing this, the group of people who were on their way stopped and turned to look.

The moment Koharu spoke, Renya's thoughts were pulled back.

He shook his head and explained, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something."

"Lotus Night Lord, the way you looked just now startled me," Koharu Utatane said, still shaken.

"I'm sorry, Xiaochun." Lianye gave a bitter smile.

Seeing that nothing had happened, Tobirama Senju told the others to continue on their way.
