Chapter 233 The Iron-Skeleton Village Hidden in the Sand
"If you want Sunagakure Village to become like Konoha, I think I can help you."
Looking at Minato Namikaze with a sincere face, Rasa smiled and without saying anything else, he stretched out his hand and pointed forward, hoping that Minato would lead the way for him.
Ahead is the main door of the Hokage Tower, and there is no reason for guests to walk in first.
Rasa was not interested in knowing what kind of person Namikaze Minato was.
So what if he is really a hero like the first Hokage Senju Hashirama?
Luo Sha knows very well who the opponent he will really face in the next ten years.
The door to the Hokage Building opened, and there were several old men standing in the hall.
Mito Kadoen, Kaden Koharu and Shimura Danzo, the three of them consciously gave up their seats in the middle of the hall to Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was also wearing a red and white imperial uniform, but without a hat. .
Although Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was nearly sixty years old, had retired, his thin face did not look old at all. He held his pipe with one hand and looked at Rasa outside the door with a careful look.
Compared to Namikaze Minato, Rasa was more familiar with this Konoha Ninja hero.
Although the two met for the first time, they had already seen each other's face in the portrait.
Rasa followed Minato's footsteps into the hall, came to Hiruzen, stretched out her right hand very naturally, and said as if she were meeting a senior:
"The Third Hokage, your health is still so good.
This really makes us, the younger generations, both gratified and distressed. "
The thorny meaning of Rasa's words made both Mito Kado and Koharu frown, while Shimura Danzo on the side just raised his head slightly and took a deep look at Rasa with his left eye. Still expressionless.
The smile on Minato's face on the side has gradually disappeared, and his eyes looking at Rasa have become less friendly.
"This grandson came to Konoha specifically to sow discord, right?!"
If the fourth Hokage's wife's tone were used to describe Minato's current thoughts, well, that's probably it.
"Oh? The Fourth Kazekage, what are you happy about and what are you worried about?"
As a Hokage who has been in office for more than thirty years, Hiruzen naturally would not get angry because of Rasa's simple words. He smiled and asked in a hoarse and low voice.
“What I’m happy about is that Konoha remains the same as before.
I have become familiar with your style of conduct during my years as a Kazekage.
I am grateful for your kindness to our Sunagakure Village during the previous war. "
What Luo Sha said was indeed sincere. When the last war between Sunagakure Village and Konoha collapsed, his mental pressure was huge.
The senior officials of Sand Hidden Village who actually started the war have either died on the frontal battlefield, or have been dismissed by Luo Sha, who is becoming more and more powerful.
But at the same time, the responsibility for the defeat also falls on Luo Sha. Do you want to take the blame?
Half a village of orphans and widowers will not listen to your explanation.
At that time, Luo Sha was suspicious every day, feeling that all the Sand ninjas around him were secretly looking at him with questioning eyes...
He couldn't imagine how Konoha would punish Sunagakure Village, an "ally" who betrayed his faith and started the war.
However, the armistice agreement proposed by the Third Hokage, which was not excessive, saved his political life.
Otherwise, Rasa would probably be the first Kage to be overthrown by the ninjas of his own village, and the level of embarrassment would be unprecedented and unprecedented...
Afterwards, Rasa could understand Sarutobi Hiruzen's choice. At that time, Konoha was facing a situation where almost everyone in the world was facing enemies. Even the famous grassroots villages like Kusagakure dared to invade the Land of Fire with the support of Iwa Ninja. territory.
Therefore, Uncle Hiruzen could only pinch his nose and sacrifice some war bonuses, and strive to cease the war with the weakest Sand Ninja as quickly as possible, so as to guard against the eagerly watching Iwa Ninja and the crazy and creative Mist Ninja...
To be honest, although opponents like Sarutobi Hiruzen and Onoki are cunning and cunning, they are considered good opponents in Rasa's eyes.
Because their way of thinking can be judged, there is still a basic bottom line for their actions.
At least it was much better than the Uchiha who pretended to be crazy and acted foolishly behind the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, and the guy with some kind of "God's Eye".
You are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but you are afraid of opponents who are as crazy as you are.
Even he himself doesn't know what his ultimate goal is, and he makes some showy moves from time to time. How should he guard against such an opponent? !
"Haha, don't mention this old thing again.
So, what are you worried about? "
Based on Uncle Hiruzen's experience, neither Luo Sha's provocative sarcasm nor this serious dog-licking speech were enough to shake his heart.
"If you retire, will the relationship between our Sunagakure Village and Konoha change in the future?"
Rasa said this and turned to Minato beside him.
By now, he had basically determined that the young Namikaze Minato could only be regarded as the nominal Hokage of Konoha.
It may be too exaggerated to say this, but when it comes to major matters, Konoha still cannot do without Hiruzen Sarutobi and the Hiruzen team behind him.
But instead of mocking and looking down on Minato, Rasa was even a little jealous of him.
Obviously, it was Namikaze Minato who had just shown kindness to him; and it was Sarutobi Hiruzen and his old teammates who put pressure on him.
Look at yourself again? When the first official order document signed by the Kazekage was to declare war on Konoha, he was simply pushed out to take the blame!
Sure enough, as soon as Rasa's question was raised, Danzo Shimura, who had been silent, glanced at him with his left eye and said a cold joke seriously:
"How could it change?~ The Fourth Kazekage, aren't you Suna ninjas always very good at judging the situation?
As far as I know, no ninja force from any country has been able to advance the front to Sunagakure Village before the Suna Ninja surrendered. "
This is a slap in the face of Chi Guoguo, the kind that leaves no room for others at all.
Therefore, it is not unreasonable to say that Mr. Danzo has been able to cause trouble in Konoha for so many years.
At least when he wants to, he is qualified as a licking dog.
"Danzo, don't be so mean when you speak!"
Although Uncle Hiruzen's tone was stern, the wrinkles on his forehead betrayed his mood at this moment.
Men Yan and Xiaochun behind him also smiled without giving Luo Sha any face, and the hall on the first floor was filled with a happy atmosphere.
However, after becoming the Kazekage for many years, Luo Sha was not afraid of anyone when it came to his shamelessness. He nodded calmly and faced this embarrassing question head-on:
“Of course, this is how Sunagakure Village survives.
People can make mistakes, but they can't make them again and again, right? "
Danzo Shimura is naturally no stranger to Rasa, especially in the past six months, he has always heard the name of this old-hearted Konoha senior executive from Frogmaru's mouth...
