Chapter 1097
"That's not good."
"Didn't you say that we should just sit in the bucket and bear it for a while?"
Kakuzu... I thought that using 50 million taels to make a metal bucket was something that required a lot of patience, but who knew that you would use 10 million taels to do the real work...
"I know that the organization is short of money recently, but Orochimaru really can't stop."
The Minister of Finance was immediately very nervous. Could it be that the focus of the play today was here?
"Don't get me wrong, I mean that we can use the moon exploration plan to..."
Kakuzu knelt down after hearing this. You are really worthy of it...
Not only do we have to earn back the 50 million taels, but we also have to raise funds for Orochimaru's new project.
"What about the merchant group in the east who wants to invest?"
"We are exploring the moon for the peace of the entire ninja world. No matter east, west, south, north, we can harvest... receive."
In this way, Kakuzu got the entire Ministry of Commerce moving.
At this time, he always thought that Noah was the god walking on earth, the god of wealth.
Dong Da Yang was still waiting for Akatsuki's revenge, but he got the news of the countdown to the moon exploration.
After the announcement of the public moon exploration process, the whole continent focused its attention on the Rain Country.
In the past, only the top leaders of the five major ninja villages knew about this news, but now everyone knows that Akatsuki is doing this through the undisguised propaganda in the new town.
On the streets, everyone talks about the topic of moon exploration.
"Did you hear that? The Akatsuki ninjas are going to the moon."
"What! Going to the moon! My God, will there be fairies on it?"
"What! The moon exploration co-branded tea cups and figures have been launched. Buy me a set quickly. This is a commemorative edition."
"Steel Heart has launched a stainless steel iron pot made of the same material as the moon exploration. Everyone hurry up and buy it."
And the wealthy merchants were also crazy. They spent a lot of money to learn a shocking good news from some people.
Lord Kakuzu wants to attract investment for the moon exploration project and is willing to carry out commercial implantation and auction the naming rights in the moon exploration project.
This is big news that has attracted the attention of the whole world. In fashionable terms, this is a hot topic.
The center of all channels of TV, radio, and newspapers.
It's just money, take it, take it all.
The wealthy businessmen started to give money in various ways.
With Noah's permission, Jiao Du was also very happy, and he would do anything to make money.
At the same time, everyone knew that the Akatsuki organization was serious.
Sarutobi Hiruzen also received the order, frowned and read it, and secretly sighed, what a terrible man.
I thought my undercover days were coming to an end, but I didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to let the East Ocean Treaty Organization extend it.
Then... continue.
On the other side, a certain Black Zetsu was dumbfounded. The vigorous lunar exploration activities made him feel like he was falling into an ice cave.
"Mom~~~~"
Chapter 61 Sending money
In the Iron Kingdom.
In the secret meeting room, the four leaders reconvened, or rather, they discussed ways to deal with the crisis while asking for punishment.
The crime refers to the Moon Organization's unauthorized attack on the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. If it fails, it is likely to cause a war crisis among the East Ocean Treaty Nations.
In the past few years, the three major ninja villages and the Moon Organization have carried out various in-depth exchanges and cooperation, from military confrontation to economic mutual assistance, and even built railways.
From the outside world, it is a completely integrated organization.
At this time, if we explain to the outside world that two people in the Moon Organization acted alone, I am afraid that the other party will not believe it.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sat there and said with a sad face.
"At that time, Afei also saw a very suitable opportunity to use time and space to abduct the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and then exchange for some initiative.
Who would have thought that he would eventually fall into the hands of the pseudo-Hokage Hatake Kakashi.
Of course, his sacrifice was not in vain, at least he helped us find out that there is a new hidden strongman in Konoha, Umino Iruka.
Strong vitality, terrifying water escape, if it were not for the sneak attack and the special nature of time and space, it would be really difficult to take it down.
As for the revenge afterwards... Actually, you don't have to worry too much."
The two shadows were shocked. What is this saying?
Could it be that Hiruzen Sarutobi has obtained some deeper intelligence?
"Do you remember the intelligence about Star Wars? I think you are also aware of the vigorous lunar launch plan just launched by Akatsuki.
The appearance of the latter is considered to confirm the idea of that terrifying extraterrestrial war. Those lunatics really want to destroy the enemy in space.
They should not be able to start a war recently."
Everyone understood and knew what Hiruzen Sarutobi was thinking.
"You mean they are fully committed to exploring the moon, so they will not launch an attack in the short term?
But whether the lunar exploration succeeds or fails, revenge is only a matter of time. I don't think Akatsuki is a reasonable organization."
The fourth generation Raikage touched the wound on his chest that was cut through by someone and said that the old man's expectation was too optimistic.
The second time Noah cut the entrance to the sea, he almost died.
"According to intelligence and in battle, the mother of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Uzumaki Kushina, is a woman with an extremely hot temper.
This matter will not end so easily, and we still have to face the enemy's attack at any time."
Speaking of this, Ohnoki was furious.
The Land of Earth and the Land of Rain are adjacent to each other, and as a hostile country on the front line, the risk is the greatest.
If that crazy woman rushes in and kidnaps the tailed beast, then their Rock Shadow Village will really have no tailed beast Jinchuriki available.
Even the Mizukage pretended to be worried.
Sarutobi Hiruzen felt that the groundwork had been laid and it was time to come up with something real.
"So we plan to reconcile with the other party, as long as we pay a little price."
But how could such a loose alliance mixed with various interests not have arguments.
"Price! What price? What does capturing the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki have to do with our ninja village?"
The Raikage is not a reckless man. Sarutobi Hiruzen's use of the word "we" at this time made him sound particularly uncomfortable.
The people of Kumogakure are in trouble from the sky, and now they have to pay a price to resolve the hatred. It's ridiculous.
Ohnoki said that the Raikage is right.
"Then why didn't you refuse when A Fei gave you the information before?
How did you get the information about the special steel needed for the Chakra Cannon? Where did you get the information about the heavy industry production line?
And where did the production materials of the light industrial Japanese products in the Land of Earth come from?
These were all important information that A Fei stole back at the risk of his life. You didn't distinguish them so clearly at that time."
Sarutobi Hiruzen's words were loud and clear, as if he was standing on the moral high ground.
At this time, he would make full use of the fact that the masked man died and squeeze out the last bit of value of the other party before his death.
Sure enough, after saying this, the two shadows stopped talking. They had earned enough benefits from A Fei and the Moon Organization.
The ability of the Space-Time Bureau in collecting intelligence is indeed amazing. Combined with the combination of the elusive pitcher plant, the two are the strongest intelligence personnel.
Although they can be shameless, they still need to fight against the Akatsuki Organization together.
So they looked at the Mizukage who had been silent.
"Mr. Mizukage is always silent in every meeting. I think he has his own thoughts. Why don't you tell me?"
The Mizukage, who was the incarnation of Black Zetsu, was in a very delicate mood at the moment.
He was particularly anxious and uneasy. He didn't know why Akatsuki insisted on landing on the moon, how to land on the moon, and what to do after landing on the moon.
The launch site was chosen in the Rain Country, and it was impossible to sneak in normally.
Obito was dead, and it was very difficult to make trouble.
So the proposal made by Sarutobi Hiruzen when he talked to him alone before the meeting was very much to his liking.
The Mizukage cleared his throat.
"Mr. Raikage, Mr. Tsuchikage, please be patient.
I am more curious about what price you think Sarutobi Hiruzen can calm down such a thing, and whether our three villages can bear this price."
With the guidance of the Mizukage, Sarutobi Hiruzen also gave a plan directly.
"Use money."
The two Kages felt a little ridiculous. It was ridiculous that Akatsuki's projects, railways and various production lines were still short of money.
Has Sarutobi Hiruzen lost his mind, or is he too sad after losing his general?
Do they really think there will be some magical operation?
"No, I have definite internal information that they are short of money. I can't tell you the specific source, but it comes from the top anyway."
This aroused everyone's interest, and it's worth listening to.
"The head of the financial department of Akatsuki has been frantically collecting money recently, and his methods can even be said to be unscrupulous.
According to internal information, it is because Akatsuki feels pressured by opening multiple projects at the same time, and they are trying to solve this problem."
Ohnoki and others feel that this is a good thing, so that the group of warlike guys will collapse economically, and then we will reap the benefits.
At this time, we can't give money to the opponent to tide over the difficulties.
Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up and acted heartbroken.
"Everyone is confused~~, they are just short of money for a while, not always short of money, only at this time will it be useful to give money, okay."
This... makes sense.
The Mizukage played the role of a supporting role and took the initiative to admit that his vision was a bit short-sighted, leaving the two shadows of Raito speechless.
"My suggestion is that our three villages plus the Moon Organization should form an ordinary caravan and go to the new town to participate in the investment promotion conference related to the Moon-grabbing event.
There is no need to hide too much, just let the other party know our origins, and then participate in the auction at a high price.
In this way, we can not only make our products famous through this Moon-grabbing event and achieve high-quality advertising effects, but also use this sincerity to ease the hostility of the other party.
Chapter 62 Yes, it is Kakuzu
After all, compared to spending money to solve problems, fighting is what we should avoid more."
The Raikage is very disgusted with this alternative move of begging for mercy with money. The people in the Cloud Ninja Village are all tough guys among tough guys.
But... the last sentence is still quite useful.
It is really impossible to beat him with force. Ai knows very well that Noah is already the strongest in the ninja world.
When the first generation Raikage was able to bend and stretch in the face of the God of the Ninja World, I, the fourth generation, inherited the strategic policy of my ancestors, and let that villain be proud of it.
Besides, the ninja village has made a lot of money in recent years, and the economic situation is very good.
The development momentum is rising rapidly, and the consequences of interrupting the development are more serious.
Once their chakra cannon is truly developed, they will have the confidence to stand in front of the Akatsuki organization.
And Ohnoki's mentality is much more flexible.
