Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

Ida nodded, "Although we don't have sufficient ANBU ninja like big countries like Konoha, the forces in the streets are under our control."

“So, as long as there are outsiders entering, Lord Ya will know about it immediately.”

Xia Le smiled and asked again, "Where's Orochimaru?"

"Lord Orochimaru secretly built a laboratory where no outsiders are allowed to enter."

Iida said.

The brief conversation between the two made everyone present open their eyes wide.

Wait, whose name did they hear?

Orochimaru?!

How could one of Konoha's three ninjas be here?

Fugaku and the others couldn't help but look at Xia Le, waiting for his explanation. But Xia Le just chuckled and didn't show any intention of explaining.

"If the Rain Country can have the participation of all of you adults, we will become much stronger."

"Although we are currently limited by our land area and lack resources, things will definitely get better in the future."

"Konoha was only established from a small village."

Iida said with a smile, ambition flickering in his eyes.

These words made Fugaku look up at him.

Obviously, this ninja who stays beside Kiba has considerable ambitions and aspirations.

"You want to build the Rain Country into an entity comparable to the five great nations?"

he asked in a deep voice.

Jingtian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I just hope that the civilians of this country can live a happy and peaceful life."

"And only with great power can peace be achieved."

These words made Fugaku stunned, but he quickly reacted and looked at the other person again.

Strength is the first guardian of peace!

If you are weak, you can only passively take the beating.

This is an eternal truth in the world.

But what he didn't expect was that a mere confidant of Ya had already understood this truth so deeply, and had the ambition to build the Hidden Rain Village into a big village comparable to the five major countries.

In his impression, such ambitions might only be possessed by the first generation of Konoha village founders.

What is more important than strength is the desire to create, build and defend.

For a moment, Fugaku fell silent.

He once again remembered what Xia Le had said before, asking him to become the Kage of this ninja village.

If all the ninjas in this village hold such a belief, then such a Kage is worth being and worth his full efforts.

But the prerequisite is that he has to meet the mysterious Yuyingya.

Will the other party listen to Xia Le's words? Will he encounter resistance when he becomes the Shadow of the Rain Country?

He was deeply impressed by the political oppression he encountered in Konoha.

A moment later, everyone followed Jingtian to the center of Yuyin Village, to the steel building, and to a room with the word "rain" engraved on the eaves.

The door was quickly opened, and the scene inside came into everyone's sight.

It was a simple house with only a wooden table, piles of paper documents, and a middle-aged man with his head down, flipping through the documents.

Hearing the door open, the man raised his head, and the bamboo hat that symbolized his shadow swayed, revealing a face that was familiar to everyone.

"Xia Le!!"

"You finally came!"

When the man saw everyone, he let out a long sigh and spoke loudly with excitement on his face.

Fugaku was completely stunned, and said stupidly: "Sakumo!?"

The others were also stunned and remained silent for a long while.

This person who appeared in the office of the Rain Shadow in the Hidden Rain Village in the Land of Rain, and who else could it be but Sakumo?

Who could have thought that the legendary Hatake Sakumo and White Fang who disappeared in Konoha would actually change their identities and transform themselves into the Kage of the Hidden Rain Village?

"Hahahaha!"

"It's me, Captain Fugaku!"

Hatake Sakumo laughed.

Then, he looked up at the red-haired Jingtian standing outside and said, "Jingtian, thank you for your trouble!"

Iida nodded and smiled, then closed the office door and stood there like a sculpture, not moving at all.

"Ida was the one I saved when I left Konoha and entered the Hidden Rain Village. He is trustworthy."

Sakumo said.

"Over the years, he has also assisted me in managing this village."

After a pause, he smiled again.

"Of course, this is all thanks to Xia Le's support."

"If it weren't for the new chakra extraction method he developed and his understanding of natural energy, it would have taken who knows how long it would have taken for the Hidden Rain Village to grow to its current size."

Then he motioned for everyone to sit down.

"Sakumo, you, you."

Fugaku was a little confused at this moment.

He didn't expect that the man known as Fang in the outside world was actually White Fang of Konoha.

"You didn't expect that, Patriarch Fugaku."

"I gave up everything for the village and friendship. I have disappeared and now I am hiding in the Hidden Rain Village and becoming a Kage!"

Sakumo said with a smile.

His words made everyone present nod secretly.

It was indeed unexpected.

Back then, Sakumo was a Konoha ninja whose missions were 100% successful and who had no bad records. He could abandon the village without hesitation for the sake of the village, and gave up the mission for the sake of friendship.

But it is hard to imagine that such a man would appear as a leader.

Because the opponent is the sharpest sword in Konoha.

"This is all thanks to Xia Le's suggestion."

"He asked me to come to the Hidden Rain Village to develop, because the Rain Country had become very chaotic because of his own efforts. The influx of various wandering ninjas made the lives of the civilians here become a mess."

"After I entered here, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I punished several forces."

"As a result, these wandering ninjas, fearing my power, chose to surrender."

"Afterwards, I taught some Genin from the Hidden Rain Village to improve their strength."

"With Xia Le's support, his men became more and more powerful. As time passed, they became the shadow of this village without him noticing."

Having said that, Sakumo laughed helplessly again.

"But I don't know how to govern a village!"

"So, I secretly sent letters to Xia Le for advice many times. He gave me a lot of advice and assured me that he would send a new person to take over."

"Until today, you finally came!"

When these words were spoken, Sakumo's eyes were already shining as he looked at everyone present.

"who is it?"

"Who wants to take over the shadow from my hand?"

Hearing this, everyone present looked at each other in surprise.

Why does the other party have such an expectant expression? This is the Kage of a village! Although it is only the Hidden Rain Village, he is still a Kage, with great power and in charge of many forces.

In terms of numbers, there are much more people than the Uchiha clan.

No matter how small the Rain Country is, it is still a country!

"Nagato? No, you're too young!"

"Xia Le? That's impossible. I know your character well. You are suitable to be the boss behind the scenes!"

Sakumo looked at everyone and shook his head.

Finally, he locked his eyes on Fugaku and grinned.

"That's you, Fugaku!"

"You are the most suitable person among this group to take over the position of Rain Shadow!"

Fugaku was still in a daze. He was completely confused by what Hatake Sakumo said.

"What? I take over as Rain Shadow?!"

After a while, Fugaku finally reacted and looked at Xia Le suddenly with wise eyes.

"You guys, do you have a conspiracy?"

Shuo Mao was stunned: "Huh?"

"Xia Le asked me to be Yu Ying, and you want me to be Yu Ying too?"

"You are still so excited and expectant. Is there something wrong with the shadow of the Rain Country?"

"Or is it a mess?"

Fugaku said cautiously.

Would the shadow of a village be handed over to someone else so easily? He didn't believe it at all.

The competition for the position of Kage in Konoha is so fierce and complicated that it is hard to imagine.

His words made Xia Le shake his head and laugh, and Shuo Mao was also stunned.

"You think too much."

Sakumo said helplessly.

"I'm really not suited to this position."

"It's fine for me to teach the little guys in the Rain Country, but it's too stressful for me to be the Kage and manage the entire village. I'm totally overwhelmed."

"I'm not a management type, Fugaku."

"Correspondingly, you, the Uchiha clan leader, are the most suitable candidate."

With a slight smile, he said again.

"Don't worry, Fugaku. Although the Hidden Rain Village is not as powerful as Konoha, it is thriving, both economically and in terms of strength. It is growing rapidly."

"I followed Xia Le's suggestion and built a ninja school in the Hidden Rain Village. I also allocated land to civilians to surround the Hidden Rain Village and expand the size of the village."

"Absorb a large number of civilians and turn them into ninjas."

"After doing these things, the growth of Yuyin Village is clearly visible."

As he said this, he took off the hat on his head and handed it to Fugaku.

"You do this shadow!"

"This is not just Xia Le's idea, it's also my expectation."

After a slight pause, Shuomao spoke solemnly again.

"After leaving Konoha, I lost my home, but this place feels like home to me again."

"And, I believe, this will be our new home in the future!"

Fugaku was stunned.
