The Ordinary Life of a Clear-Ryu Ninja Chapter 750

Dong Si sneered, “If I wanted to destroy you, I could have done so during the previous battle, or rather, I could easily do it at any time. I held back because I don’t want unnecessary bloodshed. I’m someone who would rather sit down and talk than resort to violence. The average strength of the Akatsuki’s core members is similar to mine. Your Takigakure village alone cannot resist them.”

He turned to look at Fū, dropping his aggressive stance, his tone softening slightly. “Little girl, you want to protect your village, you want to protect the people around you, right? Join our alliance, and Otogakure will become your strong backing.”

Fū blinked, then turned to look at Shibuki. Shibuki quickly nodded, “Fū, he’s telling the truth. During the battle just now, he was holding back.”

Kagon gritted his teeth, trying to keep his voice clear even through the Water Prison. “Even if we temporarily submit, can you guarantee that Otogakure won’t use Tailed Beasts to do evil things, like that Akatsuki organization you mentioned?”

Dong Si responded seriously, “Firstly, you have no choice. Secondly, my strength is your guarantee.” He pondered for a moment. “However, your question has inspired me. How about this: I plan to form a military alliance, allowing these northern countries to jointly sign the ‘Northern Countries Mutual Assistance Treaty.’ In it, Otogakure will be responsible for the unified management and command of the ninja villages in these countries in dealing with the Akatsuki, but will not interfere with your other internal affairs.”

Yorō frowned and asked, “Then why did you attack earlier? Couldn’t we have just discussed it peacefully?”

Dong Si shrugged, “Firstly, I repeat, I had already discussed it with Shibuki. Secondly, it was too troublesome. I’m a person who dislikes trouble. Since you didn’t want to listen to me from the beginning, I had no choice but to fight and win before talking. It’s more efficient.”

These words left the ninjas present speechless. Kagon shook his head helplessly. The facts were before him; Dong Si’s strength was indeed formidable. He alone could instantly subdue dozens of ninjas from the entire Taki. In such a situation, Takigakure truly needed a powerful backing.

“Lord Shibuki is a wise leader; since he agreed to join the alliance, I will support it.” Fū, who had just recovered a bit after a short rest, suddenly spoke, a brilliant smile on her face. “And since you genuinely want to protect me, then, I’m willing to trust you.”

With Fū taking the lead, the atmosphere in the room began to change. From the expressions and small gestures of everyone, it was clear that hostility and resistance were no longer high.

Shibuki breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Kagon and Yorō. The two exchanged glances, then finally nodded helplessly. Kagon said in a deep voice, “I hope you won’t disappoint us.”

Dong Si nodded, dispelling all the water clones created using the environment, and the Water Prison was also released. “From now on, Takigakure officially joins the NATO Alliance. Everything will remain as usual until I issue new instructions. As for Fū…” He looked at the little girl. “You need to undergo formal Tailed Beast control training. Stay in Otogakure for a while.”

Fū nodded excitedly, “Okay! I bet a lot of people in Otogakure will want to be my friends!”

The people of Taki looked at each other. Dong Si knew they were afraid the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki would be taken away. But now Dong Si’s fist was bigger, and most of them were actually swallowing their anger, choosing temporary submission in this dog-eat-dog environment.

That evening, in Takigakure’s council hall, Dong Si signed the “Northern Countries Mutual Assistance Treaty” with Shibuki. The treaty stipulated that Otogakure would be responsible for the military command and protection of the alliance, while Takigakure and the other northern countries would provide troops and resources to jointly fight against the Akatsuki.

Dong Si did not want to linger. He took Fū, Kagon, and Yorō and returned to Otogakure overnight. From then on, Takigakure could only be considered a semi-independent ninja village.

As for the Cursed Seal Four, they had another mission—
