Chapter 306 Chiyo, You Are Not Crazy About Gains and Losses, Right?
Among the five major ninja villages, the one most likely to choose for disarmament would definitely be the Suna ninja village.
Even though the Third Kazekage was the leader of Sand Ninja Village, he had to admit that compared to the other four villages, the family wealth of Sand Ninja Village was really too thin.
"I think the Hokage's purpose in doing this is to go to the Daming Mansion."
Chiyo thought for a moment and said: "The village's previous efforts were not in vain. There was a rift in the relationship between the Fire Nation daimyo and Konoha, which also led to Konoha's financial problems."
"Sarutobi Hiruzen, this is forcing the palace!!!"
"It seems that Konoha's finances are indeed not optimistic."
After the Third Kazekage said this, he couldn't help but show a self-deprecating look. Konoha's finances were not optimistic, so how could Suna Ninja Village be any better?
The reality is that Sand Ninja Village is worse than Konoha, okay?
Konoha still dares to force the palace, does Suna Ninja Village dare to play this trick?
Don't dare.
Although the Third Kazekage would not bow to the daimyo of the Land of Wind, he would not dare to do so if he were asked to force the daimyo.
"Chiyo, can we still hold on?"
Chiyo glanced at the Third Kazekage and chose silence.
She couldn't answer this question.
Because Sand Ninja Village really couldn't hold on any longer.
Even with the support of the Daming Mansion, it only lasted for a while longer, and Konoha's front continued to advance into the Kingdom of Wind.
At this time, it was difficult for Sand Ninja Village to organize an effective defense.
In the final analysis, it is still about money.
Sand Ninja Village is not without ninjas who can fight. No matter how heavy the casualties are, it is one of the five major ninja villages and cannot be reduced to having no ninjas to fight.
What Sand Ninja Village lacks is money and supplies.
The village pension cannot be paid out and various supplies are in short supply. Even if a group of ninjas are brought in, will these ninjas still have the will to fight?
It would be nice if you don’t go to the battlefield hungry. What kind of war are you fighting?
Morale continued to decline, and the opposition to the war in the village became louder and louder, and Ebizo could no longer suppress it.
"Lord Kazekage, let's make peace."
Chiyo didn't want to say this, but she had no other choice.
"I think so too, but will Konoha agree?"
The Third Kazekage stood up, walked to the door, and looked at the vast desert outside the camp, feeling bitter in his heart.
If you want to negotiate peace, Konoha must agree to it.
Otherwise, what are we talking about?
Chiyo bent down slightly:
"Master Kazekage, leave this matter to me. I believe Konoha will choose peace talks instead of letting us become losers in the war."
Can Konoha agree?
The Third Kazekage wanted to ask: "Chiyo, are you crazy because you have no gain or loss?"
Seeing that victory is almost achieved, will Konoha talk to you?
What could Sand Ninja Village talk to them about?
"It's nothing more than giving up some interests."
Chiyo showed an ugly but confident smile.
"Master Kazekage, can the village still produce enough profits to satisfy Konoha's appetite?"
The Third Kazekage shook his head in silence.
The smile on Chiyo's face gradually widened:
“Since we can’t get it out, the result is actually the same whether it’s defeat or peace talks.
But we can give Konoha some guarantees they want, such as an alliance, such as a never-violation treaty. "
"Then...just take a walk."
After hesitating for a moment, the Third Kazekage compromised.
The Third Kazekage didn't want to sign any of these things, such as forming an alliance or signing a non-aggression treaty.
However, the situation is not up to anyone.
Konoha can still force the Daming Palace to get what they want, but they have no other way to go.
To seek an alliance with shame, during the war, and to sign such a contract when the war is about to be defeated, means that Suna Ninja Village will be like Konoha's little brother in the future.
We are both from the Five Ninja Village, who is willing to be someone else's little brother?
Not to mention the nonsense non-aggression treaty, this is what Konoha has always wanted to sign.
However, other villages ignored them.
Because the Fire Country is rich in resources, as long as it is not violated, Konoha's development will never stop and will only become richer and stronger.
After signing this treaty, if Suna Ninja Village wants to attack Konoha from now on, he will be embarrassed.
Unless there is an accident.
For example, the Third Kazekage was defeated, the Fourth Kazekage came to power, and then refused to recognize the treaty.
But will the Third Kazekage suddenly die?
Very unlikely.
With the permission of the Third Kazekage, Chiyo took his people and stepped into Konoha's front as an envoy the next day, and expressed the village's thoughts to Konoha's attacking troops.
The news was delivered to Orochimaru immediately.
"Is Sand Ninja Village ready to negotiate?"
Orochimaru was a little surprised.
If they start negotiating at this time, Sand Ninja Village will suffer a big loss. As for whether they can get the compensation, that is another matter.
At this time, negotiation is equivalent to defeat, but it has a better reputation.
"Let them come over."
After thinking about it, Orochimaru did not refuse Chiyo as the messenger to go to Konoha. He first wrote a letter and sent it to Konoha to let the Third Hokage be mentally prepared.
As for the news that the village was going to disarm, it had already spread back to the camp, but the news was suppressed by Orochimaru.
He didn't dare let anyone spread the news. ,
Otherwise there will be chaos on the front line.
A careless move can affect the mood of a combat ninja and lead to a decline in morale.
"Old man, how do you restore your reputation?"
Recalling the Third Hokage's coquettish operation of forcing the emperor to abdicate, Orochimaru wanted to laugh.
He felt that this plan of forcing the emperor to abdicate was definitely not the Third Hokage's own idea, because the Third Hokage did not have the courage.
"Jingyi, is that you?"
Among the people Orochimaru knew, only Jingyi had the courage, and only he dared to make this suggestion to the Third Hokage.
Others either couldn't think of it, or didn't dare to say it.
"Hehe, interesting."
Because the village was going to disarm, the streets that had become a little deserted because of the war became lively again.
All those who opposed disarmament and protested took to the streets.
Among these people were ninjas and their families, and the voices of opposition were getting louder and louder.
There were vague signs of continuous expansion.
This was the prelude to a thunderstorm.
Fortunately, the daimyo's mansion couldn't bear it first, and the envoy from the daimyo's mansion came to Konoha with two years of development funds, and handed the money and the daimyo's letter to the Third Hokage.
The Third Hokage glanced at the daimyo's letter and threw it aside.
It's all nonsense. Just know what's written in it, don't pay too much attention to it.
With the money sent by the daimyofu, the village's financial pressure is finally gone.
"I will issue a notice in my name, telling everyone that the idea of disarmament is wrong. The village will cancel this plan and the disarmament notice."
