Chapter 148 Invitation
Sand Hidden Village
Sunagakure's office.
Rasa sat on her desk and looked at the invitation sent by Uchiha.
Although it is a nominal alliance with Konoha, in fact the relationship between the two parties is not very good.
After all, there were many battles between Sunagakure and Konohagakure in the first three ninja wars, but they all ended in defeat, and their national power became worse and worse. They were not so much allies.
Rather, we have to be allies.
However, the relationship between the Uchiha clan and Rasa is much better. After all, they still have commercial contacts.
The business plan left by Xia Mu before, Luo Sha can be considered as opening up large and small shops.
Although Sunagakure Village is said to be poor, it has made some money.
No one in Sunagakure Village has studied drinks before. Many drinks are difficult to transport to Sunagakure Village. Those that are refreshing and relieve the heat are all medicines.
After the things Natsuki left behind were developed, they were welcomed by many people.
Whether it’s the sweet and sour plum soup or the bitter herbal tea, they are the holy grail for relieving summer heat.
There are also foods such as roasted jelly grass, which young people like to eat very much.
The key is that the raw materials are all dry and easy to transport, raw materials that are not available here in the Kingdom of Wind.
They are all imported from the Uchiha side and shipped to the village to make them themselves.
In addition, Natsuki helped Gaara strengthen the seal before, which was considered a favor.
For such a big thing as Natsuki Uchiha taking over as clan leader, it was both reasonable and reasonable to send representatives to check it out.
And there is Obito, is he a member of the organization that Natsuki said covets the Jinchūriki?
Luo Sha made a decision quickly.
"Call Yashamaru over."
Soon, Yashamaru came to the office.
Yashamaru did not die at the hands of Gaara back then, and now his heart disease is gone. Under his short blond hair, his eyes are bright, and he is no longer the melancholy young man he was back then.
Over the years, Yashamaru has spent most of his time assisting Rasa and taking care of Gaara, and he can be regarded as Rasa's right-hand man.
Rasa told Yashamaru all the invitations and information she received.
After hearing this, Yashamaru said: "It would be great if Gaara could go. His transformation in the past few years is all thanks to Natsuki. He also really wants to see Natsuki again."
Rasa shook her head: "Gaara is still young now, so he can only stay in the village."
After all, Gaara is a Jinchuuriki and can be regarded as the strategic weapon of Sunagakure Village. Moreover, Gaara is too young and is worried about any accidents.
However, due to Natsuki strengthening the seal, Shukaku has never had any problems in the past few years, and Sunagakure Village has been managed well.
It also allowed Luo Sha to be praised by the daimyo of the Land of Wind, and some funds were raised, making Sha Gakure's life easier.
"I sent you to watch the ceremony because you are with Gaara every day, and you know his situation best. In addition to thanking Natsuki for helping Gaara, there is also the issue of whether the seal needs to be strengthened."
Rasa had experienced Shukaku's rampage too many times when Gaara was young.
Every time it turns the village upside down, and ends up losing a lot of money.
Now that Gaara is stable, it means that one of the most expensive areas is no longer there, so Luo Sha is extra precious and cautious.
"The second thing is to understand clearly how threatening Obito is. Is he a member of the organization that wants to capture the tailed beasts?"
"I know Kazekage-sama, do you want to tell Gaara?"
Yashamaru also wanted to see Natsuki again, the person who completely changed Gaara's childhood and the person who saved his life.
A soft smile appeared on Rasa's face. In recent years, Gaara has not been harassed by Shukaku.
He is now a completely normal child, and all the pain he once suffered seems to be leaving him.
A few years can change a lot of time. Gaara no longer goes berserk or hurts anyone, and he even made a few friends.
After following Natsuki's advice, Rasa became very attentive to Gaara's education.
To his surprise, he discovered that Gaara was really very smart and had a strong sense of responsibility. If he could control the tailed beast well in the future, he would even be a very good successor candidate.
"Gaara, this child, has begun to become outstanding now. Just tell him these things directly."
"I see."
Yashamaru nodded, Gaara always remembered the incident when Natsuki came to strengthen the seal for him.
I have said many times that when I grow up, I will repay Xia Mu.
Although Gaara can't leave the village yet, it would be nice to be able to bring a message to Natsuki Uchiha.
"Also, take Temari and Kankuro with you and let them see the world. Maki will take care of Gaara."
…
The Kingdom of Water, the Hidden Mist Village.
Mei Terumi, who had already taken the position of the Fifth Mizukage, was the last to receive the news.
After all, the sea voyage is too far, and the messenger ninja has to fly for several days to reach it.
Natsuki knew about the mess in the Kingdom of Water. He estimated that Terumi Mei didn't care about other countries' affairs now. It was just a courtesy to inform the Kingdom of Water.
Xia Mu also made it clear that there was no need to send anyone here since the Kingdom of Water was far away.
Otherwise, a month would not be enough time to walk on the Kirigakure Road. If you accidentally encounter wind and waves at sea, it would take even longer.
Terumi Mei also saw the Uchiha clan's bounty on Obito, and even said that Kirigakure suffered a big loss at Obito's hands.
Kirigakure not only suffered a big loss, but for Natsuki's visit, the fourth generation of Mizukage in Kirigakure Village would still be under his control.
The decline of the Water Country in recent years is also due to Obito.
The Kirigakure feels ashamed when such a big scandal of Kirigakure was exposed by Natsuki.
But there is nothing they can do. There were too many people watching at that time, and Kirigakure is famous for having many traitors.
It is only a matter of time before the news gets out.
But now Mei Terumi has no time to think about these problems, because a bigger problem has emerged.
The fourth generation Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, died by suicide.
Kirigakure was basically destroyed in his hands, and his self-esteem would not allow him to live anymore.
He lives in prison because of the three-tailed Isobu in his body, which is Kirigakure's precious treasure.
Unfortunately, Yagura Karatachi has been assassinated and insulted for several years.
Some people climbed over the guards and high walls and entered the prison, even just to spit on Yagura Karatachi.
Even the people who look after the prison turned a blind eye to this, after all, too many people died during the reign of the fourth generation Mizukage.
So many families with bloodline limits were destroyed, and countless people were implicated.
As a result, Karatachi Yagura's mental state was extremely bad, and he finally committed suicide one day before.
He died together with the three-tailed Isobu, and no one knows when and where he will be resurrected next time.
The three-tailed Isobu is lost...
Many people were dissatisfied with Mei Terumi's appointment as the Mizukage, and the loss of the three-tailed Isobu in the village became a reason to attack her.
Mei Terumi couldn't handle the mess, so of course she couldn't take care of sending people to attend Natsuki's succession ceremony.
However, Natsuki's face couldn't be lost, and the big hole near the village hadn't been filled yet.
Mei Terumi had no choice but to write a reply and explained with a messenger bird that Kirigakure had other important matters and she couldn't get away.
