Shihisa frowned, this sudden appearance of Youkimaru was really a bit troublesome. Now that the two sides had agreed on all the details of the alliance, they were just waiting for the two Kages to sign.
If he proposed to change the terms now, not only would he be slapping himself in the face, but he would also have to pay a high price, and it was hard to say whether he would succeed in the end.
"It's your job, kid. Since you found out about this matter, then I'll leave it to you." Tsunade didn't think as much as Shihisa, she directly threw the responsibility to Aoyama. Anyway, she could see that Aoyama was very concerned about this matter.
"By the way, I don't care what means you use, but you can't destroy this alliance, understand?" Tsunade stared at Aoyama. If she didn't keep an eye on this kid, who knows what he'll do.
Aoyama twisted his neck uncomfortably, he avoided Tsunade's gaze, he wasn't ready to answer her request. His strength was his strength, and avoiding his strength wasn't a smart choice.
The sun shone through the window, sprinkling on the wide desk, and the faint smell of paper and ink lingered at the tip of the nose, it smelled strangely comfortable.
"Tsunade-sama, do you want tea?" Shizune asked softly outside the door, breaking the silence in the room.
Tsunade rubbed her eyes tiredly, Aoyama refused to pay attention to her gaze. This little bastard was determined to make trouble, even if he had to use force, it didn't matter if he destroyed this alliance.
Shihisa also wisely chose not to say anything, although if he spoke, Aoyama would inevitably consider his opinion, he chose to remain silent.
Sometimes smart people can see through the development of things too easily, so they lose the fun. The Nara Clan's laziness was the reason for this.
Shihisa didn't have much confidence in this alliance, because the Fifth Mizukage wasn't a good person. That kind of person wouldn't be willing to be trapped in the island group of the Water Country. However, the first country to enter the mainland was Kiba, there was no buffer between them.
Conflict and war were foreseeable. Unless something big happened that could shake the five major countries, war was only a matter of time.
Even Sakura Shinobu, who is now a staunch ally of Sakura Shinobu, will probably become enemies after My Love, the Fifth Kazekage, abdicates.
From the beginning, Shihisa didn't trust these bloodthirsty Mist Ninjas as his allies, but as a smart person, he concealed it well.
"Mute, come in!" Tsunade sighed helplessly. This little bastard was too stubborn. If she didn't let go, they could only be in a stalemate in vain.
However, this time, the Mist Ninjas had been scheming from the very beginning. To be honest, Konoha was a little tired of this. Their alliance hasn't been officially established, and they're already playing tricks. She's just going to let Tsukuyomi cause trouble. Even if they break up, it doesn't matter. Konoha has already recovered a lot of its strength, and it's not afraid of trouble.
Mute came in with tea, and the tense atmosphere disappeared. After drinking the tea, they were ready to sign the alliance agreement with the Mist Ninjas.
Kiba Village had a peaceful and lively atmosphere, but far away in the Western part of the Land of Fire, Utsunomiya Castle was not peaceful.
Utsunomiya Castle, as the name suggests, was the headquarters of the Utsunomiya clan. For hundreds of years, this castle could be said to be the ruler of this land. During the Warring States period, it was the first city of the country. Even if it was incorporated into the Land of Fire, the Utsunomiya clan still had the right to rule this land.
However, today, the hundred years of tranquility in the mountain city were broken. Black smoke streaked across the blue sky, and orange flames danced in the wind, engulfing the ancient palaces and towers.
"This group of animals, this is my Utsunomiya clan's ancient city! They … How dare they? " At the highest point of the Tenshou Pavilion, Utsunomiya Fujino slammed the railing and cursed. He was so angry that he almost lost his mind.
Azu's face was cold, and she didn't care about the anger of the Utsunomiya clan lord. She just wanted to protect the clan lord's safety, and she was too lazy to get involved in other things.
Takumi, Keita, and Sakai were also standing in a defensive formation, protecting Utsunomiya Fujino in the middle.
Since the separation from Aoyama, Azu led Takumi and the other two to mobilize six elite teams of Root, and the group arrived at Utsunomiya Castle two days ago.
At that time, Azu wanted to bring Utsunomiya Fujino to Kiba, but she was rejected. Utsunomiya Fujino's attitude was very strong, and he said that for more than a hundred years, no clan lord of the Utsunomiya clan left without a fight.
Due to Utsunomiya Fujino's identity, Azu and the others didn't use force in the end, but stayed to protect his safety. As long as Utsunomiya Fujino was alive, it was enough.
In the past two days, Root's ninjas have dealt with a lot of "thieves". Heads were hung on the gate, but the bloody heads didn't scare away the bandits, so Yamagata Castle lost a lot of guards and servants, but Root's ninjas didn't lose a single one.
"Miss Azu, do you know those bandits below?" Utsunomiya Fujino pointed at the intruders below.
"They're all wandering ninjas, but looking at their equipment, they should be relying on someone important. They're using Kiba's explosive charms, smoke bombs, and even shurikens. They're all Kiba's standard equipment."
Azu said coldly, and there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes. Kiba's equipment was very good, and among the five major countries, Kiba's smelting technology was the best. Seeing how the country bumpkins below were fighting a terrible battle, it was a waste of good weapons.
At the periphery of the Mountain Town, the flames of war were swirling in the air. From time to time, explosive charms would explode, sending boulders and trees flying, and a large cloud of smoke lingering in the air.
However, the casualties were frighteningly low. After fighting for half a day, only 30 to 40 corpses were left behind. One must know that the total number of casualties on both sides was 600 to 700.
If it was a battle between the five major ninja villages, hundreds of corpses would be left behind in a single confrontation. The efficiency of these weaklings was too low, and they were just throwing shurikens and explosive charms randomly. Perhaps it was more suitable for demolition.
However, it wasn't surprising. The attackers were wandering ninjas, and the guards were just a mix of trained guards, wandering samurai, and wandering ninjas. Both sides were evenly matched, and it seemed like a war of attrition was developing.
"Miss Azu, do you think they can defeat these bandits?" Utsunomiya Fujino looked at the group of trash that couldn't break in after a long time, and a glimmer of hope arose in his heart.
Azu carefully looked at the battlefield, and after a few words with Sakai, Takumi, and the others, she gave an answer.
"If it's just relying on those trash, it's unlikely that they can break through Mountain Town. However, the real experts of the enemy haven't appeared yet. Once those experts appear, Mountain Town will be broken."
Azu said resolutely, and she wanted to eliminate the unrealistic fantasy of this Ming-lao-sama.
