I'm in Konoha, I have ten skill bars

The leading ninja Shigure remembered very clearly that when Maki invaded Konoha Village from Sand Village, he was basically the one in command of all the Sand Ninjas.

And now, the moment Maki saw Shi Yu, he was stunned.

"It's him? The brat from Konoha's Chunin Exams!"

Has he really become the Water Shadow?

Maki smiled helplessly. It seemed that the changes in the Hidden Mist Village were beyond his imagination.

"Maki, the Sunagakure jonin, greets the Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village!"

"I'm not even that, I'm just the acting Mizukage!"

Shigure said as he looked at the other pairs of Sand Ninjas around him, "It seems that the Sand Village has been torn apart now?"

Although they are all Sand Ninjas, these Sand Ninjas don’t seem to recognize Maki very much.

Maki raised his head and said, "No, the Sand Village will recover soon."

Chapter 311: Exchange of Conditions and Preparation for Departure

It's easy to say cheer up, but it's actually not that simple!

Shigure looked at the current Sand Village and found that these Sand Ninjas were not united at all.

It would be quite difficult to bring the entire village together again in a short period of time.

But this is not Shi Yu's business.

If Gaara could be rescued, then relying on Gaara's talent and his identity as the son of the Fourth Kazekage, there would be no problem for him to become the Fifth Kazekage like in the original work.

Following Maki, he came to a room in the Fengying Building.

Shigure sat on the couch and Temari brought him tea.

And Maki sat opposite him.

"Thank you, Mizukage-sama, for helping me when Sunagakure was in danger!"

"The Sand Village will never, ever forget the kindness of Lord Shigure!"

Machi bowed his head to express his gratitude.

Shi Yu waved his hand and said, "No need to use these tricks. This is just a deal between us!"

"The Sand Village offered me a benefit I couldn't refuse!"

Hearing this, Maki turned to look at Temari.

Temari looked a little flustered, and seeing this, Shigure understood that it was probably Temari who agreed to his conditions on her own initiative!

"Kushi!"

Kushi behind him stepped forward and looked at Maki.

"Sand Ninja Temari promised our Hidden Mist Village that she would provide us with a large amount of sand gold as a reward every year, so we agreed to help the Hidden Mist Village!"

Upon hearing this, Maki's expression suddenly changed.

He turned and looked at Temari in surprise.

At this moment, Temari could only bite the bullet and say: "As long as Gaara can be rescued, the village still has hope. Without Gaara, the Sand Village may no longer exist..."

The village is now falling apart and divided into six or seven factions.

If one really wants to close the village for a few years like the Hidden Mist Village did and then decide the new Kazekage through internal fighting, it is not that easy.

It is very likely that the Sand Village will eventually destroy itself due to internal strife.

Maki opened his mouth, wanting to scold Temari, but it was not appropriate to do so in this situation.

At the same time, another question to consider is whether Machiavelli admits this matter.

If he didn't agree, looking at the expressions of Shigure and the others, he would immediately turn around and return to the Hidden Mist Village.

Think for a few seconds.

"Okay! I agree to what Temari agreed to, but there is one condition!"

Are there conditions?

Shi Yu sneered and said nothing.

Maki said directly: "Since the Sand Village provides gold alluvials to the Mist Village, the Mist Village must ensure the safety of the Sand Village! If the Sand Village is attacked by other villages, we will not be able to mine gold alluvials stably. In the final analysis, it is the interests of the Mist Village that will be lost!"

Hearing this, Shi Yu was slightly stunned.

This condition is very high standard.

Originally, Shigure had no intention of being responsible for protecting the Sand Village. As one of the five major ninja villages, can't they protect their own safety?

But after hearing what Maki said, Shi Yu understood what he meant.

If Kirigakure does not provide protection, the Sand Village could be attacked by other villages at any time and the supply would be suspended on the grounds that it is unable to mine gold sand.

And there is probably only one village attacking Sunagakure.

Konoha!

The problems between Konoha and Sunagakure have not been resolved yet, and it is very likely that they will directly cause trouble for Sunagakure next.

This means that Maki means to ask Kirigakure to stand in front of Sunagakure and protect Sunagakure in front of Konoha!

After all, if Konoha attacks the Sand Village again, life in the Sand Village will become even more difficult.

In other words, now Shigure has to choose whether the sand gold from Sand Village should be supplied to Kirigakure or to Konoha!

There is no need to think about this kind of question.

"I, Kirigakure, will help you block Konoha, and you will take care of the rest!"

Shigure is not an idiot, and it is obviously impossible for him to be a thug of Sunagakure for his entire life.

Just this once.

Maki smiled and nodded.

It seems that the person in front of him is not only powerful, but also has a very accurate view of the problem.

I understood what he meant in an instant, but his little trick did not succeed. If he used a large amount of sand gold to exchange for a thug who would always protect the safety of the Sand Village, it would be a very cost-effective deal.

Unfortunately, Shi Yu would not agree.

But with this deal, if the Sand Village is in any danger in the future, the Mist Village can be asked to take action in a similar way.

"Since you agree, as your 'hired' ninja, we should get down to business now!"

Shigure looked at Maki and Temari, and Kankuro who had come running came in at this time...

"Master Maki, Granny Chiyo is willing to help!"

Hearing this, Maki nodded happily, "Great!"

"Thousands of generations of ten fingers?"

Shi Yu said.

Maki was stunned for a moment: "Mizukage-sama, do you know Chiyo-sama?"

"Of course! I know a little bit about the ninjas in each village!"

As for the person in front of him, now that he is the Mizukage, he naturally must know some information.

"I didn't expect such a young Mizukage-sama to have heard of an old lady like me!"

As she spoke, an old woman with grey hair and wrinkles on her face walked in. If you just looked at her face, she did look ferocious unless she was smiling.

But then she smiled and seemed kind.

Shigure looked at Chiyo, who was worthy of being the ninja who shined in the last Ninja World War. Even at this age, she still gave people a sense of oppression!

Is this a stand for Machi?

Too bad the deal between them is done!

"Now let's talk about saving Gaara!"

Shigure said as he looked in a certain direction, "We found some traces in that direction. Gaara must have been taken away by the enemy from that direction!"

Looking at the direction Shi Yu pointed, Maki looked at Shi Yu in surprise, "How did you know?"

They only recently found out this information, and Temari had no idea about it when she left the Sand Village to go to the Mist Village for help.

Shi Yu smiled and said, "If you agree to help, you have to make some preparations. I am determined to win this deal."

At this moment, a cloud dove flew in from the window and landed on Shi Yu's shoulder.

Looking at the pure white dove, the eyes of everyone in the room suddenly shrank.

Shi Yu still had a smile on his face.

Today's white pigeons are almost identical to real pigeons. Unless you have pupil skills, you will never be able to tell that they are fake pigeons.

"Yeah! It's probably confirmed!"

"We are still in the Wind Country. Shall we set off now?"

Hearing this, Chiyo frowned and looked at this unbelievably young 'Mizukage'. Originally, she was a little skeptical about such a Mizukage.

But now Chiyo only feels that this Mizukage is unfathomable!!!

Chapter 312 Chiyo's Surprise Begins Action

"Let's go!"

"Resolve this matter as soon as possible so that I can return to the Hidden Mist Village to deal with my affairs!"

With that said, Shigure stood up and glanced at Chiyo and the others.

"Your Sand Village should also send ninjas along!"

"Have you decided to send those people?"

Such a rescue mission does not actually require sending many ninjas.

The more people there are, the easier it is for the enemy to discover them in advance. Besides, for ninjas, an elite ninja team is enough to complete this task.

Chiyo: "I'll take Kankuro with me and go with you! The others will stay in the village."

Chiyo said as she glanced at Maki, "My brother Ebizo will cooperate with you!"

Upon hearing this, Maki's eyes lit up, and at this moment he looked extremely excited.

God knows how much hard work he had put in for the entire village, but the results were not satisfactory.

After all, although Maki has some prestige, he is still not as good as the Fourth Kazekage. If it weren't for Gaara, he might not be able to stabilize the village.

Now ninjas like Chiyo and Ebizo are taking action.

This relieved too much pressure on Machi.

"I hope everything goes well for you, Chiyo-sama!"

As he spoke, Maki bowed respectfully towards Shigure and Chiyo to express his gratitude.

After leaving the Sand Village, they headed in a certain direction with Kusanagi and Kisame, and Chiyo and Kankuro followed.

Chiyo came to Shigure's side "Boy! Your two guards look very strong!"

Hearing this, Shigure smiled and said, "Kaguya Hisaji, Hoshigaki Kisaki (Kisame)!"

Chiyo was stunned for a moment "The Kaguya clan?"

"I didn't expect to see a ninja from the Kaguya clan again after all these years!"

Looking at Kuji carefully from head to toe, Kankuro beside him was a little confused, "Master Chiyo, is the Kaguya clan very famous?"

Hearing this, Chiyo smiled and said, "You little brats nowadays really don't prepare any homework!"

"The Kaguya clan is a clan with a special physical type of bloodline limit. Their fighting power is amazing, but unfortunately, it seems that the people of the Kaguya clan have difficulty controlling their emotions!"

"They even have some unknown bloodline disease, and the stronger the bloodline limit of the clan members, the more likely they are to appear!"

Shigure nodded, "Granny Chiyo is right, but the Kaguya clan has overcome this problem now. Kushi is a very calm ninja!"

Overcome?

If this is true, then the Kaguya clan will become quite terrifying.
