Chapter 632: News Release

Time is like water, passing by.

Before I knew it, a week had passed.

This morning.

Qing Ming had just walked out of the house when he heard two voices talking in the distance. Their voices were a little childish, and they were obviously not very old.

I heard one of them say: "Hey, have you heard about it?"

"What did you hear?"

Another person replied.

"It's a matter of negotiation between the village and Kirigakure."

The man from before said in a lowered voice.

"Oh, you're talking about this. I just heard from Dachun and the others that the negotiations haven't started yet."

Another person said.

Hearing this, the person who asked the question shook his head and said mysteriously: "Who said it hasn't started yet? I heard a jounin say that the negotiations have started long ago, but we didn't know it."

"Is that so?"

The person who was refuted was not angry and muttered, "I'm not sure either."

"However, this has little to do with us. These major matters are decided by the jounin, and it is not the turn of us genin to worry about."

"Too."

The person who asked the question agreed, and then said: "Let's go and eat first. We still have patrol tasks to perform today."

Gradually, the two of them walked away.

Qing Ming could no longer hear their voices.

However, the content of the conversation between the two made him aware of the progress of the negotiations.

As the person who just asked the question said, the negotiations have started long ago, but the news is only limited to the upper management of the village and the jounin, and the people below do not know.

But now, since these genin have heard the news, it means that the progress of the negotiations is pretty good, and it is even nearing the end.

Otherwise, the village would not deliberately leak this information so that the lower-level ninjas would be mentally prepared.

Yes, Qing Ming believes that this news was deliberately leaked by the village.

After all, jonins are all self-aware and know what they can say and what they cannot say. If they really want to keep it secret, they will definitely not leak anything.

Just like the past few days, it will definitely be calm, instead of the uproar like now.

In this way, it is not difficult to infer that the negotiations between the village and Kirigakure should be relatively smooth.

With all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind, Qing Ming first went to the canteen and filled his stomach before rushing to the conference room.

However, as soon as he entered the conference room, Qing Ming found that something was wrong with the atmosphere here.

According to his analysis just now, if the negotiations go smoothly, the atmosphere here should be more relaxed at this time.

However, Qing Ming clearly felt a chilling feeling.

Without asking anyone else what happened, he found his own seat and sat down.

Then, he opened the documents on the table.

He just discovered that each of the jonins here had a document in front of them.

It was after reading these documents that these people unconsciously exuded murderous intent.

Therefore, he was curious about what was written in it.

With this thought in mind, he opened the file. What was inside was not something outrageous, but a combat report.

It clearly stated that the last two strongholds must be recovered within today.

This time, Kirigakure invaded the Kingdom of Fire and established a total of four strongholds, which were used as breakthrough points to pinpoint the territory of the Kingdom of Fire.

Previously, when he was at the Black Stone Stronghold, he teamed up with Sano Nobuhisa to break through the Feiyu Town Stronghold.

Ten days ago, he teamed up with other jounin to capture Yatsu Port.

Now, Kirigakure only has two strongholds left, located at both ends of Konoha's central defense line.

Although this distance is not very far, it is not close either.

So, if they were to capture them all in one day, they would have to divide their forces.

And this will undoubtedly increase the risk for everyone and the ninjas under them.

Qingming was a little confused as to why Nara Kemitsu had formulated such a radical battle plan.

With the current situation, as long as they hold firm, even if they are delayed, they can bring down the two Kirigakure strongholds. There is no need to rush, and the lives of many ninjas will be risked.

Qing Ming's eyes swept across the faces of everyone in the conference room and found that it was not only him who was confused, but others as well.

Now, everyone is waiting for Nara Keimitsu's answer.

Tap tap tap~

Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.

Accompanied by a dull sound of footsteps, Nara Keiko and two guards opened the door and walked into the conference room.

Suddenly, the entire conference room became restless.

His eyes quickly scanned everyone's faces.

Then, without waiting for anyone to ask questions, he said, "I know you have many questions in your mind, but please listen to what I have to say and then ask."

Hearing this, everyone in the conference room fell silent temporarily.

Seeing this, Nara Keiko nodded, and then said: "First of all, I believe everyone has guessed that the negotiations between the village and Kirigakure went smoothly."

When everyone heard this, they were speechless.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Obviously, this news did not exceed everyone's expectations.

What Qing Ming can think of, others can naturally think of.

Nowadays, relevant news in Youjin Port is spreading like wildfire. Anyone with a little brain can basically make an accurate guess.

But the crux of the problem is here. Since the negotiations are going well, why do we suddenly take action against the Mist Ninjas in those two strongholds?

Wouldn't it be better to let them leave on their own after the peace contract is signed?

This will definitely save a lot of people from dying.

As for them refusing to leave,

This is simply impossible!

No matter how soft Sarutobi Hiruzen is, he will not give in on this.

Therefore, these two strongholds are not the focus of the negotiation at all.

"Since it is not the focus, why do the village leaders still want to take action against these two strongholds, and are they so anxious?"

Qingming was puzzled.

"Unless."

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility.

At this moment, he heard Nara Kiyoshi continue: "Although the negotiations went smoothly, the Hidden Mist Village seems to have some unrealistic fantasies about the war situation. They want to include the Land of Waves in the sphere of influence of the Land of Water."

Nara Kiyoshi threw out this heavy bomb, which directly caused the conference room to explode.

"What?"

"This is impossible!"

"Never agree to it!"

"."

None of the Konoha ninjas present reacted violently.

Even if some ninjas are not good at playing politics, they still have the most basic sensitivity to politics.

The Land of Waves is too close to Konoha. Once the Land of Waves is given up, it is equivalent to burying a landmine at the doorstep.

This is something Konoha cannot accept.

Therefore, the performance of the crowd can be described as a mass outrage.

Seeing this, Nara Qiguang pressed his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

After a long time, the meeting room returned to silence, but the atmosphere was even more depressing.

Nara Qiguang ignored this atmosphere and continued: "The third generation also means this, so we need to show our strength and let the Hidden Mist Village completely recognize the reality."

Hearing this, Qingming secretly said: "It's true!"

Before, he saw that Konoha was going to attack these two unimportant strongholds, and guessed that this might be a warning to the monkeys.

Now it seems that it is true.

The reason why it is emphasized to be completed within one day is not to give the Hidden Mist Village time to react, but also to show the Hidden Mist Village its own strength.

You see, I can flatten your two strongholds within one day, what else can you talk to me?

This is obviously to force the Hidden Mist Village to make concessions at the negotiation table.

The so-called fighting to promote talks, that's what it means.

Qingming didn't listen to Nara Qiguang's subsequent words, he had already grasped the key point.

As for the rest, they are all irrelevant things.
