Chapter 69 Treating prisoners differently, each with their own goals to achieve all the village pictures (Ch 69)

“Who will come first? It must be Konoha! They are the richest village.”

Ōnoki was still fanning the flames, hoping to arouse hatred among the Konoha ninjas.

As expected, many Konoha ninjas looked at Musashi with anger. Although they knew that it was their side that took the initiative to invade the Water Country, they still felt that this was an insult.

However, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen was aware of Ohnoki’s tricks. He looked at him deeply, turned around and ordered:

“Bring up the things you prepared. It would be great if we can get Orochimaru back.”

Soon, truckloads of supplies were pushed to the shore.

It was bulging with all kinds of supplies that Musashi requested, most of which were hard currencies such as gold, silver, copper and iron, and a small portion were specialties of Konoha.

What is most needed to build a country is money and manpower. The Water Country has no shortage of manpower, but the island country lacks various minerals such as gold, silver, copper, iron, etc.

And Konoha and Sand Ninja happen to be the places among the five great nations that are best at producing these things.

The former is vast in area, while the latter can be reached by mining various minerals and metals under the desert.

Musashi looked at the trucks full of supplies and waved to the rear, and naturally several ships came over from behind him.

The ship docked and the Mist Ninjas on board came forward to inspect the supplies and then transported them onto the ship.

After all the supplies were loaded, Musashi continued to send signals, and a small boat was lowered from a large ship in the distance, and Orochimaru himself drove the boat to the shore.

Soon, Orochimaru arrived at the shore, and the ninjas from Konoha came forward to check if there were any seals or restrictions.

“No need to check. I’m not sealed or restricted.” Orochimaru said coldly.

“This…” The ninja who stepped forward hesitated and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

“What? You can’t trust what I say?” There was a hint of annoyance in Orochimaru’s hoarse voice.

“Step back. I believe the Mizukage wouldn’t do such a thing.” Sarutobi Hiruzen also spoke.

Orochimaru looked at the ninja and had a new thought in his mind.

Before coming, Musashi had already done some psychological precautions with him, telling him that because of his failure and capture, his reputation in Konoha would definitely drop sharply.

But I didn’t expect that the three great ninjas of Konoha couldn’t even drive away a ninja who came forward to check.

As expected! Once the veil of a person’s invincibility is torn off, all respect and admiration will disappear.

At this moment, he became more determined to cooperate with Musashi. Only by gaining strong enough power could he get back everything he had.

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have sensed Orochimaru’s anger and said in a gentle voice, “Orochimaru, welcome back. You’ve suffered so much.”

“It’s okay, Sarutobi-sensei.” Orochimaru responded hoarsely, then walked silently into the camp.

Next, the prisoner exchange of the other two prisoners took place.

Musashi also demanded a large amount of gold, silver, copper, iron and various specialties from the Iwagakure and Kumogakure.

Only after the ship had loaded all the supplies did Musashi order the prisoners to be sent over.

Both Huangtu and Qirabi are in a sealed state to prevent them from rebelling, and they need to be transported by special personnel.

This scene also made the ninjas of Konoha feel uneasy.

“Is Orochimaru in league with the Hidden Mist Village? Otherwise, why hasn’t he been sealed?”

When the boat slowly docked and Huang Tu and Qilabi were brought in front of everyone, the atmosphere on the scene froze instantly.

In the Iwagakure, the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki’s eyes, which had been narrowed, suddenly widened, and a trace of heartache and anger flashed in his eyes.

He stared at the hideous scar on Huang Tu’s shoulder blade and lower abdomen, his lips trembling slightly, and he spoke with clenched teeth:

“Mizukage, is this how you treat the Iwagakure?”

The rock ninjas around him also gasped after seeing the tragic state of Huang Tu, their faces full of indignation.

“This is what happens to invaders. Sorry, I didn’t hold back.” Musashi spread his hands to show his innocence.

“You…” Oonoki was so angry that veins bulged on his forehead, but in the end he didn’t say anything more.

They are right. The Four Ninja Villages are invaders. If you are beaten because you are not as skilled as them, don’t blame them for being ruthless.

Similarly, Killer Bee of the Cloud Ninja wasn’t feeling much better.

In the Cloud Ninja Village camp, the moment the Fourth Raikage Ai saw Killer Bee, his eyes instantly widened as if they were about to spit fire.

Kirabi was seen tied up with sealed iron chains all over his body, his face was swollen like a pig’s head, and a ball of unknown rag was stuffed in his mouth.

When he saw his elder brother Ai at this moment, tears started streaming down his face. On the one hand, he felt ashamed, and on the other hand, he felt wronged.

God knows how the guards dealt with this guy because of his foul mouth. Anyway, Musashi just said one thing: just don’t kill him.

“Bi, you’ve suffered.” Raikage Ai took a few steps forward and tore off the sealing chains that bound Killer Bee with two moves, then glared at Musashi:

“Okay, okay, very okay. I will remember this vengeance of the Mizukage.”

“Whatever, whatever, just remember it if you want. You are always welcome to seek revenge on me.” Musashi smiled and did not feel threatened at all.

However, after witnessing the different treatments of the three prisoners, the ninjas from the three parties began to whisper in their hearts.

“Why is Orochimaru fine?”

“Could it be that Konoha and Kirigakure have some secret deal?”

The seeds of doubt were planted in the hearts of the three parties. Whether it was Konoha, the Iwagakure ninja, or the Kumogakure ninja, they all became suspicious of each other.

This is where Musashi’s cleverness lies. Treating them differently not only allows the people of Konoha to isolate Orochimaru, but also allows him to work more closely with them.

He could also make the Iwagakure and Kumogakure suspicious of his relationship with Konoha, so that they wouldn’t be able to be of one mind.

If a single ninja village competes, Musashi is not afraid of anyone, but if several villages cooperate, the current Musashi will be chased like a stray dog.

Some methods seem very simple, but even if you see them clearly, you have to doubt them. This is success.

“Okay, okay, now that the prisoner exchange is complete, let’s talk about trade.”

After the four ninja villages had handed over a batch of supplies, Musashi spoke directly.

By the way, although the Sand Village did not exchange prisoners, as the weakest village, Musashi still demanded war reparations from it, and handed over supplies along with the Cloud and Rock Ninjas.

“I’m not interested.” The Fourth Raikage snorted coldly and left with his men.

A cold light flashed in Musashi’s eyes, but he didn’t say much.

“Is there anything in the Land of Water worth exchanging for us? Are they asking us to exchange them for fish? Haha.”

Ohnoki also laughed, and then said: “The Iwagakure has no interest in this. They will definitely get back at the humiliation they suffered today.”

The Iwagakure also took their people away, leaving only Konoha and the Sand Ginjas.

Musashi fixed his gaze on the two remaining Kages: “What about you two? Do you want to develop together with the Land of Water?”

“Konoha welcomes all allies with friendly intentions. However, matters such as trade should be discussed between the Mizukage and the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.” The Third Hokage sighed lightly, then led his men away.

There was neither refusal nor agreement, but Konoha seemed to have been busy with internal reorganization and development of the Will of Fire under the hands of the Third Hokage, and had no time to covet external villages.

This is a ninja bear who will only think of fighting back when someone attacks him.

Only the penniless Sand Ninja Rasa spoke coldly to Musashi after everyone left:

“It seems that what you said in the letter about being able to develop together will not come true. Everyone has left and no one cares about you.”

“Haha, it’s okay.” Musashi laughed, not caring at all about the sarcasm in the other party’s words.

Instead, he dropped directly from mid-air in front of Luo Sha and stretched out his hand:

“Since they are unwilling to discuss cooperation with me, then congratulations on becoming my only cooperative ally.”

“Mr. Luosha, you have found a truly correct path for the Sand Village.”

“I hope so.” Luo Sha also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Musashi.

When the two once weakest ninja villages join forces, who knows what kind of sparks will be born.

However, the only thing that is certain is that the peace in the ninja world will not last long, and with Musashi’s actions, the original history has also been disrupted.
