Both parties recognized each other's strength and sincerity, but the negotiations collapsed!

Based solely on practical factors - status and power.

"You don't need to mention this, I know it better than anyone else." Fang Yan flashed and appeared in the living room.

He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the neck of the Animal Path of the Six Paths of Pain. His eyes were shining with crimson light, and he said with a sinister smile, "So~"

"After I become Hokage, I will come find you."

"Compared to negotiation, the saying 'sit and discuss' is more accurate!"

"But before that, you have to advance me something as my appearance fee."

After he finished speaking, Fang Yan suddenly exerted force.

Phew!

After sharing abilities with Fang Yan from other worlds, he possessed tremendous strength that Pei Mo could not resist. He tore off the head of [Animal Realm] easily as if he were tearing a small piece of paper.

Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~ As the thought came to mind, a cyclone naturally emerged, flowing in front, dragging the headless corpse and the head full of black sticks.

Staring at the animal material floating in front of him, Fang Yan slowly formed a seal: "Forbidden Technique: Six Paths Devouring!"

A bloody mouth with a rather abstract shape suddenly appeared and swallowed the beast in one gulp.

After a creepy chewing sound, the Animal Path Pain disappeared into thin air and was possessed by Fang Yan.

"This tastes pretty good." A look of satisfaction appeared on Fang Yan's face.

Pain of the Animal Path was originally a ninja from the Fuma clan. He had fought with Jiraiya once before, and was scratched on the forehead by a kunai from Jiraiya, after which he hurriedly fled.

After his death, he was reborn as an animal by Nagato.

His choice of the Animal Path Pain to devour was a carefully calculated decision.

In the original story, after the male animal was destroyed, Nagato replaced him with the body of a young woman.

In the Akatsuki organization, its importance is limited.

If Fang Yan switched to the more valuable Hell Devouring, Nagato might not be so willing.

At that time, it is unknown whether everyone will tear each other apart directly - Fang Yan has long realized that if he controls his desires appropriately, he can gain greater benefits! Just now, the male beast he devoured was able to summon six kinds of spiritual beasts: split dog, hell crab, chameleon, Yatagarasu, bullfighting, and panda.

Combined with the spiritualism from the Myobokusan sacred land that came from Minato Namikaze, Fang Yan's understanding of spiritualism has reached a very high level.

The [Dragon Tribe Holy Land] that was once just a fabrication by me can now finally be officially made real! The final development of the situation was not much different from what Fang Yan expected.

Although Tendo Pain, who represented Nagato's face, was stunned for a moment, he was generally relaxed and left the villa without looking back.

The first meeting between Akatsuki and Fang Yan ended unpleasantly, but both sides behaved very reservedly.

"Orochimaru will be returning to Konoha soon. Resources are limited, and I can't offer any conditions that would impress Brother Nagato for the time being."

Fang Yan said calmly, "After Orochimaru returns to Konoha, which I rule, it won't be too late to harvest [Rayin's leeks]."

He didn't even pretend and directly revealed his ambition.

But on Konoha's side, everyone's reaction was as if it was a matter of course - Fang Yan has been like this since he was a child.

Perhaps it is because of this character that he will not be led astray by his teacher Danzo Shimura? The oppressive Akatsuki organization members left, and Namikaze Minato remained calm on the surface, but in his heart he was filled with sighs: "Humura is still the same as before, she hasn't changed at all~"

"His kindness and love are enough to protect the entire ninja world, not just one village or one country."

"He is bloodthirsty and strong, and uses iron-blooded means to ensure that his goals are achieved!"

In the eyes of the Fourth Hokage, Fang Yan has always been a complex and mysterious person, a strong man in both mind and body! Originally, Minato was worried that Fang Yan had chosen the wrong teacher and would be led astray by Shimura Danzo, known as the Darkness of the Ninja World, and would sink completely, fall into the decay and illness of Konoha, and be infected with old diseases.

Now, he is completely relieved.

——Fang Yan can only change others, and will not be changed by others!

The visit of Six Paths Pain of Akatsuki was just an episode in the Fourth Ninja World War.

Even though the Sand Village was defeated and surrendered by Fang Yan and signed a humiliating treaty, the war was still going on from a macro perspective.

On the two fronts of the Land of Lightning and the Land of Earth, Konoha's situation is not good.

Even though Tsunade and Jiraiya have each demonstrated strong personal abilities and skills on the front lines, the two fronts are still pressing towards the heartland of the Fire Country.

If it weren't for the frequent good news from the Wind Country, I'm afraid everyone in Konoha would be in panic and everyone would be in danger!

Although Sand Village was defeated, it would still take some time to put its secret arts heritage, material resources, and talents to good use. Fang Yan's capable men focused their main energy on this aspect.

Meanwhile, Namikaze Minato was training a new generation of talent for Fang Yan: "The technique engraved on this three-pronged kunai is rather difficult to understand. Its operating principle is as follows..."

Although Rock Lee of the logistics supply delivery team thinks that Minato Namikaze is a bit of a fool and likes to give his moves very long names, he is a cute jonin with personality.

Tenten, a wealthy young woman whose family runs a ninja tool shop, was considered by the Fourth Hokage to be a new generation ninja with the potential to learn Flying Thunder God, so he took her in as his last disciple and focused on her training.

Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Chouji and others also received commendations from Fang Yan for their accumulated achievements in their respective fields.

Many of the new generation of Konoha who served under Fang Yan have now undergone the catalytic transformation of [Six Paths Devouring].

and……

During the transformation operation, Fang Yan added a little something that suits everyone's personal characteristics.

The normal loss of life span was not a big deal, they got more! There were so many people who died tragically in the Ninja World War at the age of eleven or twelve, and only when they had enough strength to survive could they hope for a long-term future.

Take Xiao Li as an example. This passionate young man who once vowed, "I want to prove that even if I don't know ninjutsu or illusion techniques, I can still become an excellent ninja. This is my ninja way", has now also mastered the basic three-body technique.

After the transformation, Rock Lee is highly similar to Might Guy in terms of body structure and genetic bloodline. He is no longer insulated from ninjutsu, but still insists on specializing in physical skills.

In this process, Fang Yan gradually took control of the ruling power of Sand Village and became the nominal and actual controller of the Wind Kingdom.

In the letter from the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, Fang Yan was highly praised and comforted.

He said that "in eighteen or nineteen years at the latest", he would abdicate and let Fang Yan inherit the throne and become the fifth Hokage. He hoped that Fang Yan could understand Konoha's difficulties.

Maybe the old man just made big promises out of habit, without much malice, but...

Not long after Fang Yan received this top-level instruction, the Fire Country's Konoha headquarters broke out in succession with the "Three Major Incidents", putting Sarutobi Hiruzen's position as Hokage in jeopardy!
