Volume 1 Chapter 450 The conditions offered by the Mist Village are too tempting

After all, this is an internal matter of the Mist Village, not to mention that the two villages are currently at war.

Even if Konoha wanted to end this meaningless war, it would not easily accept Yagura's invitation.

There has never been friendly friendship between countries or between villages, only eternal and unchanging interests.

For the sake of profit, even brothers can fight with each other, let alone two competing villages.

By referring to the Sand Village, you can understand the relationship issues among the five major ninja villages.

The Sand Village made friends with Konoha time and time again, and stabbed them in the back time and time again. After being defeated, they immediately made friends again. This is a typical case of a dog that can never change its nature.

In the final analysis, it’s all about profit!

Konoha wants to end the war, but what benefits can Konoha get from it besides ending the war?

Everyone was silent, even Tsunade didn't speak. The Third Hokage held a pipe in his mouth and smoked slowly.

Yagura looked at the Third Hokage calmly. He was waiting, waiting for the Third Hokage to put forward conditions.

Even if ending the war would only benefit Konoha and not harm it, it would not be easy to get Konoha to cooperate in the investigation of the Third Mizukage.

Without certain interests, it is difficult to reach an agreement on this matter.

Yagura is not a kid, he knows these unspoken rules.

He also had the conditions to convince the Third Hokage.

Just waiting for the Third Hokage to speak.

Minato acted a little nervous, and Chitose lay on the table bored, staring at the patterns on the teacup in front of her, as if a flower had grown on the patterns on the teacup.

“Ahem!!”

After a moment of silence, feeling that the atmosphere was almost brewing, the Third Hokage coughed and put out the cigarette. Tsunade at the side twitched her eyes and stood up to open the window, preparing to ventilate the meeting room.

Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help myself.

Seeing that Tsunade was looking at him with a somewhat unfriendly gaze, the Third Hokage quickly gave her a smirking look.

Unfortunately, Tsunade ignored him.

In desperation, the Third Hokage had to say to Yagura:

“Yakura, although what you said makes sense, we in Konoha also want to end the war between the two villages as soon as possible.

But there is one problem you haven't considered yet. Whether the Sandaime Mizukage is being controlled by someone or has been replaced is a matter for your Mist Village. In principle, we in Konoha cannot interfere."

"Once everything is revealed, Kirigakure can sign a non-aggression agreement with Konoha."

Yagura put forward the conditions he had prepared in advance.

Compared with general peace instruments, non-aggression instruments are more binding.

The peace document has been signed, and no one will say anything even if someone turns against them and stabs them in the back, because the foundation of the village is profit.

But after the non-aggression agreement is signed, it would be wrong for you to dive again. At the very least you will be condemned, and at worst you will be met with hostility from other villages.

Even if the five major ninja villages can fight each other and stab each other for the sake of profit, at least they have to take care of their appearance.

The Land of Fire is rich in resources, and Konoha's foreign style is not to actively invade. If Konoha can sign a non-aggression document with other villages, it will only benefit Konoha and have no disadvantages.

If possible, the Third Hokage would have wanted to bring all the Kages of the four major ninja villages over to sign a contract.

"Ahem, this..." The Third Hokage was moved.

If Konoha can take over the Sand Village and then the Mist Village, it will be able to gain a good space for development.

Yagura continued, "The master has promised that as long as this matter is investigated thoroughly, the Kirigakure's sea trade routes can be opened to the Land of Fire. I believe the Daimyo will not have any objections."

Although the Land of Water is a maritime country, it has abundant marine resources. In addition, the Mist Village focuses on developing maritime defense. In this regard, only the Cloud Village can be compared to it to some extent. No other village can compare with the Mist Village.

As long as the Mist Village puts aside its hostility and opens up commercial sea routes, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire would probably laugh in his dreams.

The Daimyo of the Land of Water would not object either, because he would be able to make more money if the waterway was opened.

“Ahem!!!”

The Third Hokage coughed, and this time the cough was not pretense, but out of shock.

Everyone else looked at Yagura in surprise, unable to believe that Yagura dared to make such a condition.

Konoha and the Land of Fire had long been eyeing the sea trade route, but the Mist Village had been holding it tightly, and the daimyo was unable to change it even though he wanted to.

If the traffic on the Mist Village side is unobstructed, it means that both countries and both villages will be able to make more money in the future. Only with money can there be prospects for development.

As for why the Mist Village was so strangled in the past, it was not only because they didn't want to see Konoha grow stronger, but also because of the complicated relationships in the Mist Village.

With the Third Mizukage, a controlled troublemaker, around, opening a commercial route is simply a dream.

Qianyue was surprised by this.

He didn't expect that Master Yuan would be so courageous.

If you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense. Konoha suffered heavy losses due to the two wars, and the Mist Village is not much better off. Opening a commercial waterway at this time will be beneficial to the recovery and development of the two villages.

After all, development means that you need a lot of small amounts of money. Without money, recovery is difficult, let alone development.

Yagura cannot represent the Kirigakure, but the master can.

The idea of ​​opening a commercial sea route means that the master wants to change the current situation of the Mist Village, and perhaps the Blood Mist Era will end early.

In the original work, the Blood Mist Era continued because Uchiha Obito hated the Mist Village and forcibly controlled Yagura.

Now Uchiha Obito is still a little kid, and he is still a blackened man who wants to destroy the world for a woman. As long as the Blood Mist Era ends here, it will be basically impossible to recover in the future.

Even if Yagura became the Fourth Mizukage, even if Uchiha Obito became Uchiha Madara's spokesperson and forcibly controlled Yagura, it would be difficult to bring back the Blood Mist Era and cover the Mist Village.

Just like the Uchiha clan in the past.

The high-pressure war atmosphere is gone. Everyone wants to live a good and peaceful life. Who the hell would want to fight a desperate war with you or start a bloody fog era?

If Yagura dares to mention the Bloody Mist Era, countless people will probably jump out to rebel and pull him down.

"Are you serious?"

The Third Hokage took a deep breath. Just now he was just moved, but now he could no longer hold back.

What the hell is this non-aggression bullshit? How is it as important as opening up commercial shipping lanes?

Once the waterway is opened, the resources of the ocean will be open to the Fire Nation and Konoha. At that time, Konoha's financial revenue will continue to grow. Financial growth means that Konoha will be able to enter a rapid development stage.

Yagura said seriously: "This is the master's promise to the Hokage. As long as your village cooperates with us and investigates this matter, the master will definitely convince others to open the sea commercial route. The Hokage does not need to worry about this."

No one may believe what Yagura says, but as Master Yuan, he has a high credibility.

"How do you want to investigate?"

These words meant that Konoha agreed to Yagura and Master's request.

No one else stood up to object, not even Tsunade, because the temptation was too great.

Yagura and Yuanshi have also burned their boats. It seems that the Mist Village cannot hold out for too long. The losses caused by the war are too great. If they want to achieve this, it can be expected that many people will stand on Yuanshi's side.

At least many people who have the final say in the Mist Village stand on the side of the Master, otherwise Yagura would not have come to Konoha with such conditions.

There are many difficulties in investigating on your own, and if you are not careful you may end up with something wrong. But it will be different if you involve Konoha.

With a flash of resentment in his eyes, Yagura gritted his teeth and said:

"We need someone from your village to cooperate with us and put on a show first."

"What do you mean?" Tsunade asked.
