but.

After saying this, Qianye nodded slightly and left instantly.

Chiyo originally just wanted to control the opponent, but it turned out that the opponent was not a child but a little fox, so she had to give up decisively.

Just as Luo Sha was thinking, the door was pushed open and Chiyo walked in with a gloomy face.

"never mind?"

"Senior, we have been in the Sand Village all this time. You can come to see me until the end of the Chunin Exam. If there is nothing to talk about, forget it."

The pressure is too great.

"No, that's just the next best thing."

"That's not certain. Gaara lost Shukaku's chakra after the Chunin Exams until you found out. Any time could be the time when he lost his chakra."

Chiyo wanted to talk about the deal, but when the words came to her lips, she sighed heavily and said, "Forget it, forget it."

Especially this kind of old-timer, he doesn't even feel embarrassed when he cheats others.

The heart of Sunagakure is too dark.

Ebizo frowned. He was afraid that he might have done something wrong, or that someone under his command had not told him something and made him take the blame.

Finally, it was Ebizo who asked, "Sister, what's wrong? Did that kid make you really angry?"

Anyway, it won't be Konoha that gets bombed. If Chiyo only has this much vision, then the Sand Village will be doomed.

He opened his mouth but didn't dare to speak.

She took a deep breath.

Chiba emphasized again.

"I apologize for what I said before, but I hope your village can understand. After all, our Jinchuriki lost his chakra in Konoha..."

The old woman wanted to set a trap for him. If he answered her, she would have confirmed with her words that Gaara had lost the power of the tailed beast in Konoha.

Kazekage Building.

Chiyo really didn't have that idea. Now that Konoha was strong and Sunagakure was weak, there was no point in worrying about text traps. If Konoha didn't give it to her, there was still nothing she could do.

He believed that Chiyo just needed time to weigh the pros and cons.

Chiyo sounded tired and sighed heavily, as if she was about to start all of a sudden.

Rotten?

of course.

Everything depends on strength.

Ebizo was reading documents from recent years, thinking about how to deal with the mess in the Sand Village, while Rasa was sitting on pins and needles beside him.

The more careful Qianye was, the more afraid she became.

Chiba didn't get used to it.

But Ebizo said nothing...

He is so young but he is full of bad intentions. What will happen if he becomes Hokage?

Chiyo sat down, her gloomy expression improved a little, but it was still very stressful, especially for Rasa.

His lips trembled, and he finally asked, "What's that?"

"I originally wanted to use Shukaku's power to threaten him and force Konoha to make concessions on the ninjutsu transaction, but his answer was flawless and he also revealed a piece of news to me..."

Chiyo briefly recounted the process of his conversation with Chiba.

Luo Sha and Ebizo's eyes widened for several seconds.

Akatsuki organization!

The target is still the tailed beast?

This……

Only a ghost can believe it!

but.

The Hidden Mist Village actually testified, and Tongkan's eyes also indirectly proved the authenticity of Chiba's information.

They couldn't help but not believe it.

"This information should be true."

Ebizo said in a low voice.

Luo Sha nodded: "I think so too. We absolutely cannot lose Shukaku again. But if the enemy is all S-rank rebels and has such terrible infiltration capabilities, we will have no way to defend it."

"Ah."

Chiyo nodded.

This is also the reason why she did not ask for any more conditions in the end.

Even if they exchanged information, they would not be able to protect Gaara.

The Sand Village is too weak.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment.

"Let's deal."

"What do you mean? How do we trade?"

Chiyo looked at her brother.

Ebizo has always had a lot of ideas, especially in managing the village, he is much better than her.

"The things Konoha is interested in are nothing more than those few. We can't afford the magnetic escape technique, but we can use puppet technology as a bargaining chip. The other thing is Gaara..."

Ebizo sighed and said, "According to the situation of the Fubukuro, once the Jinchūriki loses all the chakra of the tailed beasts, the result will be death. Rather than let this happen, it is better to hand it over to Konoha."

"What? But Gaara is my son, the Jinchūriki of our Sand Village."

Rasa exclaimed, "It's ridiculous to hand him over to Konoha!"

"Then do you have any better ideas? Besides, now you think of yourself as Gaara's father? You have never seen the pain he experienced in his childhood, huh."

Chiyo didn't have a good attitude towards him.

On the one hand, what Luo Sha did back then was not right and he did not lead the village well. Another reason was Gaara.

When examining Gaara's body, she learned a lot of things, and her dislike for Rasa deepened.

If anyone else said this, Luo Sha would definitely be unhappy, but Chiyo...

He couldn't argue.

Chiyo thought for a moment and asked, "Will Konoha accept it?"

"Yes, Gaara is a very good hostage after all."

Ebizo was tired and helpless.

The Sand Village is now short of talented people, and Gaara is the best among the next generation of ninjas.

If Gaara dies, the next Kazekage of the Sand Village may have to be chosen from among Maki's gang.

It can’t be said to be bad.

but.

Maki's strength will not improve any further, and it is a considerable weakness compared to other ninja villages.

Gaara is the best choice.

Luo Sha also thought of this, opened his mouth, but in the end said nothing.

Ebizo's plan is indeed the best choice.

"What jutsu should we exchange?"

"A ninjutsu to improve the environment of Sand Village. We lack energy, resources, and food. Improving the environment can fundamentally solve the problem. If that doesn't work, we can discuss the exchange of ninjutsu."

They tacitly agreed not to discuss the scorpion issue.

……

"With Ebizo and Chiyo back in power, Luosha's strategic policy will inevitably move closer to ours, and our actions will go much more smoothly from now on."

"Asuma-senpai is right."

Chiba nodded.

He agreed with Asma's point of view.

Ebizo and Chiyo are not foolish people, unlike Rasa who gambles on the fate of the country at every turn.

Faced with internal and external troubles, they will choose a safer approach.

Chiyo finally gave up, not necessarily because she didn't want to trade anymore, but because she probably couldn't think of how to make the trade at the moment.

Ninjutsu?

What the Sand Village needs is not ninjutsu, but resources to train ninjas.

If not for this, the First Kazekage would not have given up the Tailed Beast in order to obtain financial dividends.

therefore.

Chiba's conjecture

The Sand Village is more likely to hope that Konoha will help solve some of its survival difficulties.

such as.

Resources like medicinal herbs that can enhance the ninja, or techniques that allow them to grow crops in the desert.

The latter is difficult.

There is basically no rainfall in the northern part of the Kingdom of Wind. According to the information Chiba has read and his own analysis, it is very likely that the air currents from the north to the south are blocked in the line of the Kingdom of Rain.

This leads to...

It rained heavily in the Rain Country, causing disasters, while there was no precipitation at all in the Sand Village to the south of the Rain Country, the Bird Country, and other places, leaving only a desert.

It was not without reason that the Sand Village once wanted to annex a small country to the north. As for the Second and Third Ninja World Wars, it was because they hoped to expand eastward.

The choice was not wrong, it was just that I misjudged my own strength.

and so.

There is no way to completely solve the problem of Sand Village.

Unless Konoha and the Hidden Rain Village are willing to give up the buffer zone, River Country, in the middle to allow the Hidden Sand Village to drain resources, no one will be the good guy.

Neither does Chiba.

Why?

When the Sand Village becomes strong, it will extend its fangs to Konoha.

Because the Land of Earth is too difficult to attack, and Ohnoki will not tolerate the buffer zone in the middle being destroyed. Although Konoha is strong, it is precisely because of its strength that it has the space to unite with others.

Chiba has been thinking about how to "help" the Sand Village.

The next day, he came up with a solution that was not a solution.

Water issues...

It is suggested that the Sand Village go find the Kingdom of Rivers and build a canal to the Sand Village area, gradually transforming the area along the way into an oasis of life.

It is unrealistic to improve the climate of the entire northern part of the Wind Country, but at least it can make transportation to the Sand Village more convenient.

The clamping method is very simple.

When trouble breaks out in the Sand Village, Konoha goes straight to the River Country to cut off the water supply.

Destruction is always easier than construction.

The next day, ninjas from various villages arrived one after another, and the Sand Village became increasingly busier, but at night, the top leaders of the Sand Village came again.

This time it’s not Chiyo, but Ebizo.
